“You do ?” Tina was beginning to really believe that Bette’s nickname of Yodah for Shane was 100% accurate
“Yes – she is struggling with her feelings. She was horrified when it was suggested that she had OCD. I know that when I was so angry at the whole world I was so afraid the whole time that I just couldn’t cope with the whole universe. I couldn’t deal with my feelings. My grandmother suggested that I start dong something physical – I do kick boxing and swimming and judo and it taught me how to control my feelings and also how to express them. Bette is running and she’s doing it with the same intensity as she does with her school work because she doesn’t know how to deal with her feelings”
“Just growing up feelings ?” Tina asked
They had reached the school gates
“I came to terms with my sexuality two years ago – you are just doing that now – Bette’s going to take a little longer”
Tina could feel her heart in her mouth
“Are you saying ?” she managed to ask
Shane stopped and looked at her
“Of course I am – I could be wrong and you will tell me if I am barking up the wrong tree but – I think you know that as well”
“Are we talking about the same thing here ?” Tina asked – always ask if you are not sure what someone is saying to you – life lesson from her grandfather.
Shane smiled “What do you think we are talking about ?”
“I think you are telling me that you either think or know that Bette is gay “
Shane nodded “Yes – that’s what I am saying. I am now going to warn you that Bette is nowhere near reaching the point in her journey that you are and even less close to being out like Carmen and me. I can see how you look at her “
Tina blushed a deep red which made Shane smile
“Its okay – I clocked you as gay on the first day – it took Carmen two days”
“Because of how I look at Bette ?”
“If I thought that you were just being friends with Bette because you have the hots for her you and I would be having a very different conversation – I would be telling you to back off”
“But – I “
“Tina – I know that you want to be her friend – really we do”
“I do “
“All I am saying to you is that if you do want to do something about how much you fancy her – well – you are going to have to tread very carefully and you are going to be have to be prepared for a long game.. “
“Do you think Bette suspects how she feels ?”
Shane nodded “I think its starting to emerge and she’s starting to come to terms with it. Bette’s fragile and I think we all know that”
“I don’t want to hurt her “ Tina said in her defence
“I know”
“Shane – she’s beautiful “
Shane put an arm around Tina’s shoulder
“Yes she is – but she doesn’t know it and I think that is going to be as hard for her to handle as the fact that she’s gay”

I so love this story, especially if everyone gets to stay alive. (Both of Tina’s moms) I’m also looking forward to the journey that Bette and Tina take in strengthening their friendship and then deepening it into something more. I’m also hoping that both sets of parents can reestablish a good friendship with each other. I’m just saying… Thanks for the posting.
Just wanted to say that I love this story. I love how you are slowly taking us on this journey on B&T discovering who they truly are as individuals and hopefully what they can become together. Thank you for taking the time to write such a beautiful story. :)
Love how the story is unfolding. Although patience is not a strong suite. ;-)
Great update. If only I’d had someone to talk with like this when I was in high school and college my life would have been very different. It certainly would have been a lot less stressful and I most certainly never would have married a guy. Eeeewwwwwww, happy that’s been over for almost four decades. It is my hope that every young lady that is having questions regarding who she is and her sexuality get a chance to read this story. It is wonderful. Thanks for posting.
Love how this story is shaping up!
Love the story and your writing is awesome. Thanks
Another wonderful chapter! Thanks, Ally
I just love this story for many reasons but the biggest one is how I connect with it. I believe your Bette can be used to describe some closetted adult lesbians today. Still struggling with their feelings and doubts about their existence, a bit far fetched I know 😄 thank you 😉👍
Thats good
I love this story so much. Thanky you Ally.
Wow! Simply WOW Ally!! Thanks for the update :-) And yes… Shane is yoda indeed! Her observation is so amazingly sharp and deep! And lucky for them to find each other as friends in such a young age!! And even luckier to be aware of their sexuality so early in their life.. Love the story Ally! And I think this slow burning makes the story so dear to me ;-) BTW… Would it be possible to celebrate the weekend after such a LONG week with LONG updates also!? :-D haha… Maybe it’s time for Rocky to wake up after such a LONG nap!? ;-) LOL hi-paws!!
Thank you for the update.Love it.PPS
