Out of sync
She needed to take control of her life. She needed to reassert the balance of power in the relationship. She’d paid a high price for her indiscretion over and over and over again. She’d suffered public humiliation. She’d begged, she’d pleaded, and she’d self-destructed. She’d been submissive but now it was time to pull herself back up. She had to get over the guilt and forgive herself. They had to move past the affair so they could get on with their lives, but first she had to get her own life back.
Bette had been talking to an adviser and was contemplating attending a 10 day silent retreat in Mount Olympia Washington. It seemed like a good place to start. Considering the state of their relationship perhaps a temporary separation was what they needed to get back on track, but first they had to deal with this new development. Tina’s secret online chats with ‘DaddyOf2 might prove to be the breaking point.
***
Tina had ignored all of Bette’s phone calls to the office that day. Not once did she call to check on Angelica or to see how Bette’s day was going. Every attempt Bette made to contact her partner resulted in being told by Rosie that Tina was in meetings and asked not to be disturbed. Rosie promised over and over that she’d let Tina know Bette had called. The executive assistant assured Bette that Tina would return the call as soon as she was finished but it never happened. Now they were forced to have the conversation about DaddyOf2 and Lindsey76 at eleven o’clock at night. Bette had waited up; this could not wait until morning because the conversation would likely not take place.
Bette knew Tina’s avoidance tactics well. It was inevitable that by 6 am Tina would be rushing about getting ready for work complaining the whole while about all her responsibilities including having to pump breast milk for the baby which would delay her getting to yet another important meeting with her ‘subordinates’.
She would be shouting orders at Bette of things that needed to be done; callously treating Bette like a subordinate instead of an equal partner. Had Tina taken Bette’s calls perhaps they could have diffused the situation. Being ignored only served to embolden Bette as she’d been stewing since earlier that morning when her meditation was interrupted. She could not get back to that relaxed state of mind until she confronted Tina about what appeared to be ‘some dirty little secret internet sex life’.

BAT I’m with you so far…..please have a better version than what I saw……
Dee22 – if you haven’t read this story before you’re in for a ride. It will be very different from what we saw on the show. That’s a promise. Stay with me.
So glad you are going to change it. Thanks, enjoyed it
Thank you. Changes are coming soon.
Still here and looking forward to your ‘spin’ on the story :)
Thanks as always for the post.
SassyGran thanks for sticking with the story. There will be a few surprises on the way.
This story makes me sad, i will read it but it is so hard. As a true Tibetter i think it is better that they break up and try to find them selves. Bette made one big mistake and she paid dearly for that.
But Tina is not the innocent poor woman, she is one evil bitch who destroyed Bette with her behaviour.
Ugh, i hate season three! !! But i will stick around.
Bibi28 – I know it’s hard. I won’t be reliving S3 for too much longer. The story will take a turn in a few chapters. Thanks for sticking with me.
Really hated Tina in S3 and how she threatened Bette and I know that I also do not like her at the beginning of your story. Granted Bette cheated but she paid for it and let Tina walk all over her and humiliate her in public. Tina for her part, in my opinion, didn’t take any responsibility for the failure of their relationship and as it wasn’t bad enough that she dated Helena Peabody now she is working for her and helps her to invade herself with their friends. At least Bette is aware of the fact that she should not let Tina treat her like she does any longer and that she has to put herself together without Tina’s help. So looking forward to your next post, and thank you so much for posting this exceptional story.
as1219. I’m so glad to see you reading and commenting on this story. You were an integral part of it when I originally posted. I totally agree about how Tina treated Bette. Bette’s affair was a betrayal but Tina’s revenge was evil. She did everything in her power to break Bette and almost succeeded. As you know I can’t abide a broken Bette. She’s going to come back better than ever. :-)
BETTE should have been the happiest woman in WE-HO but HELENA/TINA made her look like a fool.TINA kept the screws in BETTE until that cybersex hic-cup and now alpha BETTE is loose.TINA needs to feel safe again but she goes overboard in this season.pps thanks
dunnthat – So true. I hated that Bette allowed herself to be so manipulated by Tina and Helena and later by Jodi. I think that’s why I always write a very strong Bette, but her heart is her character and you can’t get away from that. Thanks for sticking with the story. If you haven’t read it before I think you will enjoy the ride once we get over these hurdles.
