Prodigal – 19
Bette smiled slightly, in spite of herself. “I just”
“Ask the question that’s bothering you the most,” Tina said, trying to help her along. It was late and she had an emotional day. Right now, she just wanted to fall asleep holding Bette.
“What made you decide to move back home?” The question rushed out of Bette so fast she didn’t have time to think about asking it.
Tina’s face softened. This was going to be a longer conversation than she had expected.
“Was it just because of the baby?” Bette followed up, again without thinking.
Tina sighed. “No, it wasn’t because of the baby at all but you have to admit that’s nice.”
Bette couldn’t help smiling. “Yes, it’s nice.”
Tina chuckled but brought herself back to the question at hand. “There was no one reason, but at bottom, at its most simple, I just wanted to come home.”
“The house?” Bette asked.
“Are you being deliberately dense, babe, because I’ll kill you if you are?” Tina asked, not believing that Bette had missed her point.
Bette shook her head.
“You, Bette, God,” Tina said, affectionately. “Home is you and the longer I was away the more I knew it was true. I hope I wasn’t mistaken in assuming you felt the same.”
“No,” Bette shook her head, suddenly extremely pissed at herself. “You were not wrong. You were very, very right. I just. You were so angry with me and then we were trying to be friends and then you were home, no discussion.”
“Didn’t we have ***** somewhere in there?” Tina teased, “or did you forget?” She tugged on Bette’s hand causing Bette to take a step closer as Tina leaned against the door jamb.
Rather than respond with humor, Bette grew more serious. “No, I didn’t forget.”
“You’re killing me. I’m tired, Bette, and I just want to curl up in bed with you,” Tina said, deliberately evoking that day when she had come home from
“I can do that,” Bette said, “but we still have a lot to talk about, right?”
Tina nodded, “but not tonight.” She led Bette into their bedroom. And Bette followed without further argument. Who was she to refuse a night in Tina’s arms? Regardless, that was the third time in two days that Tina had put off talking to her about why she came home. And Bette’s sense of foreboding grew.

Bette needs to have a litte bit more faith in Tina and Tina’s feelings for her. All these insecurities that Bette has is going to lead to something bad.
they need to talçk and quickly before Bettes little mind start to wondering bad things and worse before she do something wrong but i hope they are still in the right path and get through the hard time..great chapter and please dont take so long to post again thanks
I agree with Emma. What’s killing Bette is not knowing…Tina should just talk to Bette and finally tell her why she came home. They’re both contributing to a possible downward spiral. Bette wants to know, needs to know, and the only person with the answer, Tina, is delaying her response. That can be a bit frustrating and can feel your insecurities. They need to stop and TALK to one another. Jenny…thanks for the update.
An update is an update.Thanks for posting.I think Bette is insecure and Tina needs to reassure her.
great chapter, thanks for the chapter have really missed this story
talk.more talks needed.
Poor Bette isn’t even reassured after:
‘Tina said, affectionately. “Home is you and the longer I was away the more I knew it was true.”
What more does she need to hear from T?
This is the first time I’ve seen this story and read it and loved the story. Now I must go back to the beginning.
Good chapter. They need to talk and can’t wait to see what’s next, thanks!
