An hour later Bette is in the guest room giving Tina some time alone with her parents when the door opens

‘Hey Sexy, whatcha doing?’ Tina flirts

Bette smiles ‘Not much, just giving you some time with them, how do you think it’s going? you okay?’

‘They love you, really they do’

‘and you?’

‘mmm well I could show you?’

Tina pushes Bette onto the Bed and kisses her madly

‘Tee….Baby..not now okay? Please?’

‘You want me to stop?’ as Tina’s hand runs down Bette’s breast and at the top of her waist

‘God Tina…mmm… baby, please, do you know what you are doing to me? How am I going to contain myself if you do things like that to me?’

‘Alllllright, Later though okay? When they have gone to bed, I may just come ead you a story?’

Bette Laughs

‘Later Tee, right now, well I think its time…’

Tina gets up and bits her bottom lip ‘are you going to be with me?’

‘Ever step of the way’

Bette and Tina walk down stairs holding hands until they got to the bottom, they both sat down on the couch

‘Mom..Dad, can I talk to you guys for a minute’

‘Sure honey, what is it?’ Alan said with a concerned look

‘Is everything okay?’ Mary inquires

‘More than okay, um well see the thing is I met someone in L.A and I have fallen in love, and its wonderful’

‘Thats great honey, how long, how did you meet, what’s this man’s name?’

Tina looks at Bette

‘We have been seeing each other for 2 months and we meet at a art opening at…. The Bette Porter Gallery’

Tina took Bette’s hand

‘and her name is Bette Porter’

Mary and Alan look at Tina with blank faces

‘Mom…Dad its okay, I am very happy and very much in love’

‘Mary…Allan, I can see you properly didn’t expect this but I have to say I am very much in love with your daughter and want to spend the rest of my life with her’

‘GET OUT’ Alan screamed

‘DAD’

‘NO TINA, WHAT HAS SHE DONE TO YOU? WHEN…WHEN..HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?’

‘Dad, We..I didn’t plan for this to happen, I never considered, not once that I would fall in love with a woman but Bette isn’t just any woman, she is everything to me, please don’t do this, Mom please, you have to understand, this kind of love doesn’t come around and I found it, can’t you guys just be happy?’

‘I agree with your father Christina, you can stay but your…(looking at Bette)friend can leave’

‘Well if she leaves so do I…I will not, repeat WILL NOT let you talk to her like that or treat her like that, she is my girlfriend and if you cant except that well… I guess we have nothing else to say to each other’ Tina says fighting back the tears

‘Are you saying you choose her…over us, your family?’

‘Yes Dad thats EXACTLY what I am saying’

‘Fine, have a nice life’

‘I plan to, with Bette my life will be full of love and excitement, babe can you help me get our stuff and lets get the fuck out of here.’ as Tina walks off

‘Mary…Allan it was nice meeting you and I hope one day you can accept Tina for who she is and I plan on opne day giving her a family and when that day comes, when you get a call saying that you have a grandchild I hope you can look at yourselves and be happy with not knowing bother your daughter or grandchild or children’

Both Mary and Allan didn’t know what to say

‘BETTE NOW!’

‘Coming’

**********************************************************************
‘God I haven’t thought about that day in a long time…how long did it take us to get out of there?’

‘Got on the next plan back home’

‘and that night I asked you to move in with me’ Bette says smiling

‘Worst and Happiest Day of my life’ Tina smiles back
