    Author Notes:

    Bette and Tina…

    “Oh T…"

    “Bette…”                                                              

    Bette took a tentative step forward and opened her arms.

    “How about a hug for an old friend?”

    Tina bit her lip and nodded her head.

    Before she finished her nod Bette’s arms had enveloped her and the world stopped.  Tina couldn’t help but let herself fall into the embrace.  The tears erupted as she instinctively molded with her other half.  She let out a sigh mixed with sobs and just held on.  Tina could feel Bette was sobbing too so she pulled her closer.  She didn’t know how long they stayed like that, it could have been a minute, it could have been an hour, but finally she took a deep breath and whispered.

    “Hi.”

    Bette tentatively released her arms and leaned back.

    “Hi, it’s so good to see you again. …I never thought this day would come.”

    Tina looked up into Bette’s eyes and she whispered.

    “Me too…”

    Tina lifted her left hand and wiped the tears from her face and took a deep breath.

    “Ready to go?”

    “Oh yeah um, right this way?”

    Bette turned and gestured toward the car as her hand gently pressed against Tina’s lower back.  She walked slowly toward the car and reached to open the door and then deftly took Tina’s hand to help her into the car.

    “Thanks Bette.”

    “It’s my pleasure.”

    Bette closed the door and quickly got into the driver’s seat.  Tina turned to Bette.

    “As smooth as ever Porter.”

    Bette let out a nervous laugh.

    “Yeah that’s me smooth Porter, now if my hands would just stop shaking long enough for me to see if I remember how to drive.”

    The ladies shared a laugh and then smiled at each other.  After a moment, Bette took the car out of park, and said.

    “Well I hope your seatbelt is fastened…Here goes.”

    Tina looked down at Bette’s hand on the stick and could see that her hand was indeed shaking.  She reached her hand out and laid it on top of Bette’s and smiled.

    “It’s really good to see you…just relax….Okay?”

    Bette looked at Tina through her tears and gave her a very warm smile, after a moment she said.

    “Thanks…Okay…Here we go.”

    As she drove Bette started to relax, and by the time they reached the highway to head up the coast she was at least driving the speed limit.

    1. Oh that was everything I could hope for. The tenderness and understanding Bette offered and thank God Tina got it all out. It can only be up from here. Nice Nice Nice

    8. Beautiful update! Bette does need to slow down just a tad. I don’t want them to rush into anything, but the hugs and the kisses were pretty hot. Tina needs to truly feel loved again. I really loved the long chapter! PPS

    11. AWESOME! What a beautiful reunion – you could just feel Bette’s anguish. I’m so glad they’re at a point where they can accept both their errors. But…Bette needs to slow down and give Tina some space between the romancing.. …

    12. This was a tough chapter to get through.. Wowee, I’m glad they’re talking and making steps to get back together, and I’m even happier they’re making out. I can’t wait to see Bette’s painting and their business lunch. Maybe Bette can cook? =D Thanks for this ultra long post and PPVS! =))

    13. Thanks for the great update! I think Tina needs to take it slower than the 2 of them want. She is just starting alcohol addiction counseling and is going to need time to adjust to that new lifestyle. Not an easy thing to do. it is great to see them both communicating so openly! PPS

    14. I’m really loving your story. I really liked this update, also. Bette is doing a great job of understanding and accepting Tina’a past 2 years. And I love how she is making Tina to feel loved. I love your pace and can’t wait for more!! Thank you!

    16. That went far further, and way better that I thought it was going to. They still haven’t fully talked about everything though… rocky stuff ahead? I hope their respective therapists help them deal with it all. thanks, DnA! :)

    17. Aaarggg… You can feel the confusion and frustration from them both- there is the need to take it slow and be careful with their hearts… but this other need to just ‘close all the doors and windows’ and never leave home again. Love your story.
