    Author Notes:

    The fight after Provocations is the backdrop to an encounter five years later.

    Tina and Bette shared a look, eyes shining for their friends. Shane was choked up as well. Looking around the table, she wondered when they’d all stood up.  

    “Come here you two,” Kit ordered, grabbing Alice and Dana in a group hug. Everyone started laughing and hugging. Finally, they all sat down around the table.

    “You knew?” Alice blushed.

    “You’ve been looking like the cat that ate the canary for a while, Alice.” Bette laughed.

    “And Dana’s been looking like the canary!” Kit added knowingly. The whole group laughed, and then hooted at the tennis player’s obvious red face.

    “When did this all happen?” Tina asked smiling with wonder at her two friends.

    Dana didn’t see the look Alice tried to send her.

    “About four o’clock in the morning, the night of Provocations. Alice couldn’t wait until a reasonable hour to declare her love for me,” she joked.

    Glancing around the table Dana regretted her candor. That night had brought heartache to everyone at that table.

    “I, um, anyway- I took a long run in the Canyons after Alice left-thinking about that kiss. She smiled at Alice. “By the time I got home, I was pretty sure I wouldn’t be marrying Tonya.”
     


    2008- American Airlines Flight 5

    The steward removed Bette and Tina’s dinner trays, asking if they’d like coffee with their desert. Opting for decaf and the flan, they resumed their conversation.

    “Bette. Your note said you wanted to talk about our past? … I thought we did a lot of that already… when Dana was sick?”

    Tina smiled gently at Bette, remembering the painful discussion. It had been the last time they’d spoken till tonight.

    “I don’t mind talking about it if you have things you need to say or understand. I’ll talk to you… I’m just…well, surprised. Processing was never your particular gift,” Tina teased tenderly.

    Bette grimaced. “I wish I’d talked to you more Tina.”

    She had always felt that Tina needed to hear more from her that night. They had talked for hours, trying to be as honest as possible about what had led to their pulling apart.

    They’d been more open with each other than Bette had ever thought possible. But it hadn’t been enough. In the end, Tina forgave her, but she still left.

    3. I remember the pages and pages of debate we had on TWOP over that supercharged word. Tempers flared, lines were crossed, people got bounced from the site for their inflammatory rhetoric. Rape. There, you said it, and I’m proud of you for going there. So many years later, can we cooly reflect on the passions of that night? Wow, what a way to end a season!!! Bette and Tina wrecked on the shores of infidelity! Season One was great, even with the Marcus Allenwood’s stupid girlfriend and Jenny’s mushroom trip. It was great, I tell you! You’re bringing it back. Thanks!

    4. ” The dominance of the act had aroused her and she had allowed herself to view it as sexual rather than controlling.” – interesting to finally see what was going through their minds at that time – wow

    5. This was such a hard scene to watch in season 1 and it is still hard to remember it this far out. It brings up such uncomfortable feelings still. This conversation was great. Thanks for bringing this story back!

    6. What an excellent chapter. The way you wrote about the rape scene was extraordinary. So complex, and so subjective. I’m really loving reading this story.

    7. Wow this was a hard conversation. I, too, shuttered at the word ‘rape’. It is so hard, I remember at that time a lot of conversation going on around whether that was or was not rape. What I do know is that the conversation was hard in this chapter and will continue to be hard. You’ve got me hooked, amazing writing, and thank you!

    8. This was the chapter that got me so hooked on your story in the first place. When Tina used the word rape, I remember thinking, What?! And then I went through the scene in my mind. You’ve written this so well, from both perspectives…I can’t wait for the rest of the conversation. Fantastic writing!! Thank you!!

    9. I just have one question, you are going to finish it? I remember reading the first post and you left us hanging. please tell me we’re going to get a good ending

    11. that was the hardest scene to watch in season 1, so well done…the way you wrote about it brought back all those painful memories for them both but if they will survive that, they should be okay, right? i hope so :)
