Out of Closet (B&T time-travel romance), Ch. 27, Part 1
Tina was watching Bette with surprise written all over her face because that was not what she expected the brunette to ask first, especially after she just declared that she cared for Bette and loved her.
“Well, girlfriends usually live together, spend their time together, they love each other, they are physically attracted to each other, they kiss a lot and make love to each other…often. Just like any other couple do.”
Bette absorbed that information while continuing looking directly at Tina. “So, Alice and Dana are girlfriends,” she said, nodding her head and conveying that she understood Tina’s explanation.
“Yes…and Shane and Carmen are, as well,” Tina answered, trying to figure out where Bette was going with that.
“Can gay people have families and stay together for the rest of their lives?” Bette asked again, keeping her eyes on Tina’s face.
“Well, marriage between gay people is still illegal in the United States but they can have commitment ceremonies and civil unions in some states, and then live together forever and love each other, be partners and have kids together,” Tina responded, meeting Bette’s gaze and trying to sound casual, when everything inside her was screaming, ‘That’s what I want to have with you, Bette, if you let me love you with all that I am.’
Bette sighed again and said very softly, almost in whisper, “I know that you care for me but how do you know that you love me?”
Tina couldn’t believe what she was hearing as she mentally processed Bette’s question, ‘Finally, I can tell her how I feel, but what if she doesn’t feel the same. What if last night was just her way to forget loneliness, fear, or her longing for home and Christina?’
Tina gently touched Bette’s face and said sincerely, “I knew I loved you the first time I touched your hand that day at the mansion. I could feel the connection between us and I knew it right then but…to be completely honest, I’ve been infatuated with you for a long time,” she finished, blushing at the memory of all the drooling she’d done over Bette’s beautiful face on the miniature.
“What do you mean…for a long time?” Bette asked, confused by Tina’s answer.

Sorry I haven’t been commenting. I haven’t been bored, just a little lazy. I liked this story when you were posting it originally, and I’m still enjoying it! Looking forward to an update. Thanks!
I really enjoy your story, and sometimes don’t have time to comment but I’ll make the time to make sure you keep writing this story!
Thank you B&TF for posting another chapter. I know you have a lot of other writing to do, but I really do love this story and look forward to your updates. I particularly loved the way you wrote Bette and Tina shyly feeling their way toward each other. You could really feel Tina wanting to rush forward and declare her love for Bette, but pulling back so she wouldn’t frighten Bette. And you couls also feel Bette’s guilt…she loved Christina, but she feels that same love now toward Tina…and she doesn’t quite know how to handle it. Well written and I’ll be here whenever you can post the next chapter.
B&TF- I’m not one who comments often but I LOVE this story. You are doing a great job with it and my eyes light up when I see that you’ve updated it so please keep it up. I can’t wait to see what happens and if Bette chooses to stay in the future with Tina. I’m nervous about what will happen when Alice lets everyone know what she found out on her trip. Maybe this will somehow show that the meaning of the inscription on the minature is that Tina is just like Christina and therefore the one to be ready for.
One of my favorite stories. Thank you.
Wow, great chapter! I love hearing about B&T. I really really love the story and I’m sorry if you’re not sure if people like it. And also, I totally know what you mean about the comments! I feel the same way! I can only really know if I get comments, and I get like really excited when I hear back from readers. lol. Thanks so much for this story, and PPS! Great job! (PS – loved the poem! haha)
Like a lot of other people, I do not comment but thoroughly enjoy your writing. This story, by far, is my most favorite so please continue to post and post a lot more often. Thank you.
Sorry for not posting a comment before. It’s difficult to think of different things to say – probably why I’m a reader and not a writer. Thanks for posting and I look forward to the next one.
Hey there ! Well, as you may remember I had enjoyed your previous chapter very very much as I thought it was incredibly enthralling, but… Well, I don’t think this is going to come as a big surprise to you : I have loved this one as well… As for comments, I must confess that even though I was among those who left you a few words last time I am as guilty as everybody else for I had not commented on the previous 2 chapters, I believe ( mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa ! )… The thing is I’ve been having very very little time to read fic lately ( and yet, I love all your stories and I had not read this one when you originally posted it so this is even more thrilling for me ), so when I do catch up on my reading I usually read 2 or 3 chapters in a row and I only a comment on the latest one, thinking you might not go back and read “old” comments… Anyway, my point is, so far, there isn’t a chapter in this story that I found boring or even just so-so… I have enjoyed every single minute of reading and, trust me, there aren’t many fics out there I can say the same thing about… I can’t wait to see what’s coming ! Thank you for sharing your time and talent with us BetteAndTinaForever.
I did not read this story the first time that you posted it, but I am seriously into it now. I get excited when I see a post.
here is another lazy commenter checking in, i read this entire story the first time, and i am enjoying it even more the second time around, looking forward to each posting!!!
i love your story sorry for not commenting
I realize that this comment is very late in coming but better late than never, right?! ;-) Anyway, just want to know that I’ve loved this story the first time around and I’m savoring it more this time around. Please do continue with this story and your others!!
Hey BT&F.. I love this story, in fact all your stories. This one is quite interesting.. it is never easy to write a sci-fi love story especially the storyline of time travel and trying to connect the lives of the characters of their past and present lives, creating one storyline that is believable.. You pulled this off brilliantly. It will be interesting to see how you will resolve the complicated lives of our favourite couple. I already read the original version, and so looking forward to your next update.. Thank you.
gosh I love this story. I finally just caught up. Please continue writing because this story is one that needs to be told! PPS I love seeing B&T talking like this so sweet!
This story is one of my favorites. I love it. Please continue…Why can’t I open my closet and find a confused and sweet Bette in it? Life is so unfair! ;-) PPS
Loving the story Again. Sorry about not commenting. Will try to do so in the future.
tina finally got say what she really felt!!! let see what kit says when she meets bette! :)PPS
I don’t comment often, but be assured I really like this story and btw your other story as well.So please post soon and give us some joy. :)
Shame on me for not commenting on this story even though I’ve been enjoying so much!
I love it. Plain and Simple
Gosh, I love the mushy stuff!!! Thank you, B&TF!!! =) SK/C
That was great and B&T are wonderful. Now let see Bette at the planet and let see Kits reaction lol. Pleease post more, thanks!
HEY THERE!!!! I finally caught up!… I have been away (for a week), and then been overwhelmed with stuff so had little time to catch up with fanfic. But there is something you should know… This story is the first one I’m catching up with. And just did this morning. In fact, I had been meaning to send you a PM to let you know that I haven’t by any means deserted your writing (God no!), but just been away and over busy with life. So now, I’m finally back and re
Oups, sorry, hit the wrong key… So now I’m finally back and on stand-by for your next update. This story is blowing me away. And I must say that your details about archives searching has been everything but boring. I found it very interesting, especially since it’s related to what you do. I love the way this story is going and I’m impressed by your mind’s engineering! Great stuff there! So Bette “wants to fall in love” with Tina? I thought she was already in love with her… But I guess it’s all very complicated with Christina and everything, and that she will confess her love in time… Finally, I wanted to say that I totally understand what you mean about “needing” the comments. I agree that it’s generally not the number of viewers that makes my day but the comments on my story. It’s important to me to know what the readers think. So I love the poem and I can only agree with every word! Please don’t give up nor slow down with this story, I love it and want to see it continue towards its resolution. Please, please, please! And if you do slow down, I can only hope that it’s to the benefit of your secret agents’ story, which I love as well. Anyway, I love your work B&TF, and you can be sure that I’ll be there, commenting, and if I’m not, it will only be because of life’s hasards, but I will always get back! As a writer (who’s working her a** off on her next chapter), I can only appreciate the fact that you’ve always commented on my story, and be grateful about it. It shows your concern, respect, and high consideration for the writers’ feelings. And for that, you deserve the same and more! So, thank you again, please keep it up, and big kuddos to you! K ;)
I have always loved this story and was a diligent reader originally. Will you finish it this time?

Please continue to post soon and do it often kay, coz I just cant wait to read more, this story is like one of my first Tibette fanfic loves hehe mwahh :)
