“I’ll call you when I land…Hey Al, I’m really glad you’re my friend.”
“Likewise, Fatty.”
_________________________________________________________
Alice arrived back at the hotel and found Tina fast asleep. She put the things away, started some dinner, sat on the couch, set the alarm for a nap, and laid on the couch. She woke two hours later and quickly jumped up to checked on Tina. Tina was just coming out of the bathroom.
“Hey, did you need any help? I’m sorry I fell asleep.”
“I’m fine Al, I’m just really slow.”
“Do you feel up to some tea or coffee? I brought a bunch of stuff at the store.”
“Tea sounds great. Thanks.”
Alice smiled and turned toward the kitchen and started humming ‘Copa Cabana’.
Tina laughed and hobbled behind her to the living room.
They sat with their tea and Tina started the conversation.
“So Al, tell me about the last 2 years of your life. Have you fallen in love? How’s work? Tell me everything.”
“Well I sense a bit of a diversion but I’ll indulge. Well let’s see…Work…I just got a great promotion at LA magazine. I’ve been a staff writer for the past year but I just got my own byline and I’ve also launched my own pod cast that’s been doing pretty well.”
“That’s great Al, I’m so proud of you.”
“Thanks, the love life’s not too bad either. Dana didn’t marry Tonya and well anyway we talked about dating but we thought better of it and then she dated this chef named Lara for awhile and then I dated this GI Jane named Tasha which was pretty fantastic for a while but we started to drift apart and ended our relationship about 3 months ago but then about a month ago Dana called and asked me on a date. We’ve been trying to take it slow but things are good. We’re good together. Except she’s playing really well and has to travel a lot.”
“Oh my God Alice, that’s amazing. I always thought you and Dana would be great together. I’ve watched her a bit on TV and the internet. You know in my more lucid moments. It’s really great that she has finally taken off. Are you in love?”

So glad you posted so soon. I’m torn. I love how the pace of the story is giving me a glimpse of how it could have been if Tina did up and leave. And I love this Tina. She’s made mistakes but she’s trying to find her way back. Great that Alice and Shane have got her back. But. How soon will Bette find her again? I’m dying to find out when…how…esp how soon? Tina and Bette just need to come home to each other again. Thanks for posting. As always, can’t wait for the next chappy.
hah, sooo interesting! I think I have already developped an addiction to this story…
Gosh this is terrible!!! I hate women beater. Tina please don’t give him any escuse. Violence never anything response. He can’t get away with this. Can’t wait to see what the family and friend would do to him VERY soon lol. PPVS
DnA, this is a very compelling story..
This is will be a very interesting story. Will Tina return to her former home and friends or will she continue to run.
Please dont let Tina be pregnant by this asshole. It will rip our(Alice, Shane, Bette, Tina and Me) hearts OUT. So, D, I’ll send you a whole dollar if you dont make that happen. NO bebe for Tina. Ok, two whole dollars. Oh, and PLEASE dont have Bette hooked up with the she-devil herself, Jodie. I’ll make it 5 whole dollars.
brwnsuga, you read my mind and upped the ante. lol. okay, you heard her D&A. You’ve got 5 bucks riding on this! thanks for the posts (and for the nice ending to “Starting Over”). :)
this is heartbreaking
Wow! This is going to tear Bette up.
What a great friend Alice is. Now she needs to get Tina back to LA and into Bette’s arms, right? LOL. Great story. PPS!
Well I´m with brwnsuga and I´ll throw a couple of Euro´s on the pile of persuasion.
Im really really loving this story.
I`m with brwnsuga too.Bette and Tina will fix this mess.
Great, you answered my questions why they were apart. But why didn’t Alice tell Tina what Bette was now doing. Hopefully she has left Candace but Lord please don’t let her be with jl., I can’t even write her name without seething, I dislike her so much, I’ve never seen her in anything that she wasn’t arrogant as hell. Can’t wait to see what happens next. Thanks for posting.
whoa, 2 drunks attack each other? No matter what TK, he had NO RIGHT to bash u. Guess he was one of those freaks who really preferred her drunk!!! Al and Shane need to get T outa Dodge quick smart. And why was Bette at Candy’s the night T went looking for her-if she really wanted to fix things with T??? Thx for the shout out. Great on the edge of my seat story. Plz update soon.
Hey D&A, I hope it was cathartic for Tina to finally tell a friend everything she had been through the last couple of years.Tina has been a rudderless boat on choppy seas. Bashing from one place to another without concern for herself.It is a real shame that she has hit the bottom of this barrel with such a physical bump although now she has her friends around the sky is clearing and a safe voyage can be sailed.Even after everythign Tina has been through she is able to talk about Bette. Yes, the hurt is still there which means there is hope. Hope that these gals heal together and rediscover their love. It is there just buried under the anguish and pain of betrayal.I am sure Alice and Shane will get the ball rolling and bring Tina back to LA. The rest of the journey is what I am looking forward to.Many thanks for this new twist.Your Loyal Fan.
Loving this story. Thank you.
what the fuck Tina, she must really love Bette to the depth of her soul to let their departure destroy her like this omg!
