“What are you talking about?” Bette asks, raising her voice.
“Tina, with Tina, I’m never gonna be her. You want her and I’ve tried my best, but it doesn’t seem to be enough for you.” Caitlin says.
“Oh my God. Caitlin, do you have any idea how much I loved you, how much IN love I was with you? If you could’ve just open your eyes and see. I had this weekend planned. I was going to take you to San Francisco and to the Golden Gate, and I was going to ask you to marry me. I was planning my life with you. And in one single moment, you ruin that.” Bette says. She also has tears down her cheek now. Caitlin can’t stop crying.
“Oh my God…” Caitlin whispers.
“Yeah.” Bette replies and turns and walks into the kitchen.
“Bette, please. Can I explain?” Caitlin asks, walking slowly after her. Bette stands, leaning onto the counter. She turns slowly and crosses her arms over her chest, she looks right into Caitlin’s eyes, waiting for the explanation.
“I… I wanted to get your attention. I needed your attention.” Caitlin cries. “I see how you look at her every time we go to pick up Angelica. I’m not blind Bette. You still love her.” Caitlin cries.
“I love her, yes. But I’m IN love with you. There’s a difference there.” Bette says, raising her voice. “I was totally yours Caitlin. If you had these fears, why didn’t you talk to me?” Bette asks, calming down a little. “Why did you go outside our relationship?” Bette asks, as her voice breaks a little. “Why did you do it?” Bette asks again.
“Like I said before. I was sick of competing. I just… I made a mistake.” Caitlin says after a few moments. “I love you Bette, never doubt that.” She adds.
“You have a funny way of showing it. I did this myself 4 years ago. It destroyed my relationship with Tina. I’ve told you this story before… Eventually we moved on. She’s in a relationship and she’s getting married. And I was with you, happy with you Caitlin. I remember begging Tina for forgiveness, now I know why she took a long time doing it. I don’t think I’ll be able to forgive you Caitlin.” Bette says.
“Bette, please… I love you. Please don’t let this be it.” Caitlin begs.
“You need to start packing. I want you out of the house by the end of the week. You’ll sleep in the bedroom, I’ll take the guestroom.” Bette says.
“I’m sorry. I’m… just sorry. I never wanted to hurt you.” Caitlin says.
“Then why the hell did you do it here, in our house? You must have known that I might come home earlier to check on you. You knew exactly what you were doing. So don’t tell me that you never wanted to hurt me.” Bette says and wipes away a few tears. “Please, just get started.” Bette says. She picks up the phone and walks into the guestroom. She lay down and closes her eyes. About an hour later the phone rings. Bette reaches for it and wipes the tears before answering it.
“Hello?” She says.
“Hey, Bette, it’s me. How are you holding up?” Tina asks.
“Oh hey. I’m fine I guess. She came by. I guess she’s packing at the moment. She tried to explain… finishing it up by saying ‘I never meant to hurt you.’ I… I Can’ forgive her.” Bette says.
“No one says you have to. Did you give her the chance to explain herself?” Tina asks.
“Yeah, and it was a bad explanation. Tina, I really don’t want to talk about it right now.” Bette says.
“Sure, I’m sorry. I’m just worried. I know you said you wanted to be alone, but… you want me to come over?” Tina asks.
“No, I’ll be fine. I need to be alone. I need to figure out some things.” Bette says. “But thanks for asking.” She adds.
“You’re welcome. I want to help, if I can. I have experience with the subject you know.” Tina says.
“Tina. Don’t make fun of this.” Bette says.
“I’m not Bette. I’m not, I’m just… Don’t hesitate to call me. I care about you.” Tina says.
“Thank you.” Bette says and smiles slightly.
“I’ll call you again tomorrow night, if it’s okay?” Tina asks.
“Sure. I’m available.” Bette says.
“Okay. Talk to you then. Bye.” Tina says and they both hang up.

You have me on the edge of my seat. More please.
am i first?..oh goodie..well please dont let Bette forgive that woman..even loving her name..lol..and you know why..lol..well i hope B&T find their way back together..i know for sure you will not make that easy to us but please dont take that long..lol..thanks :-)
Caitlin’s explanation is pretty lame. I don’t think she’s really in love with Bette. Poor Bette, she needs to move on, again. :(
Lots of anticipation. Very good read. It’s going to be interesting seeing it build as Caitlin remains in the same house while Tina reaches out to Bette.
caitlin is a loser…she better be gone soon
I was afraid of losing you. That was a bitter pill since she has been doing it for awhile. She tryed to turn it around because of Tina. Let Bette let Tina help her if not Bette will really be bitter and never trust another woman to really love. WHY THEIR BEDROON, Now another Mattress, thanks
Wow this is so great and hope you let B&T find their way to get back to each other again, there still hope, just want them and Angel together as a family and happy. Ok post soon please, thanks!
“Honey, I love you so much I cheated on you! Don’t you see? I did it for YOU!” That sounds lame as does Caitlin’s explanation. As much as I want B&T back together, I don’t want Tina to smother Bette. Of course there’s still this Martin character. I hope I’m right in assuming he’s a nice guy. But that means he could end up really hurt if B&T make a go at it again. lol@Angelelica!
More Please. That was Great. Thank you
Is there any chance that Tina will start to remember how much she loves Bette and for Bette to remember also? Maybe now they can put all that hurt behind them and start a new.
I’m loving this story!!! please post soon!!
What Planet was Caitlin on that she thought Bette would buy that ca-ca explaination? She must have thought she was talking to boo boo the fool. Out of all the places she could have cheated…she did it in their house in their bed…no excuse (that’s why on the show Tina is gonna have to bring the full dog and pony show to make up for the door f*ck w/Henry)…if you’re gonna cheat…then just freakin leave…these days doing something like that can be the same as pointing a loaded gun at your head because you don’t REALLY know if something like that can cause your significant other to go off the deep and kill EVERYBODY up in there. Please post soon.
interesting
Caitlin sucks eggs. She right, of course, but she still sucks eggs. Thanks!
damn this story is just like a drug.. waiting for the next page to load is so long! please more.. and soon.. I might die from withdrawl! :D
Maybe Catilin is right. Maybe she has been competing with Bette’s love for Tina, and it could be that Bette isn’t even aware of it. Tina may be happy with Martin, but she belongs with Bette, they will realize this. Bette may have cheated but at least she honestly said she really could never say why. Catiling flatout said she did it to make her jealous, to notice her, give me a break. And in there home, nope you gotta go, bye,bye.
i want kick Caitlin buttom, she had a wonderful woman and she didn’t care. The Tina concern just show me how she care for Bette i hope this will help to realize how they love each other
Very interesting story Lauren. I meant to comment after the first chapter, I had to run out. Although Bette did cheat on Tina, I don’t think that this thing with Catlin can be compared as being thesame. First of all Bette kept her affair away from Tina, her family and friends. I think that this is a VERY important point. Yes it still hurts but Bette was disrespectful of Tina. It is one thing to cheat on someone and that is bad enough, but to do it in thier face and in the bed that you both shared is just SOOOOO Disrespectful and much more agreadus. You can not love someonre who doesn’t respect you. Yes I think that Catlin wanted to be caught and that speaks tro her character or lack there of. I hope that Tina is able to help Bette through this and they talk about the difference in the two betrayls. Tina should not have accepted Martin’s proposal when she is having renewed feelings for Bette. Eventhough Martin is a nice guy, he should rethink his situation in terms of marring Tina when she first hasistated to answer him and doesn’t want to start a family with him. It is as if that is something that she wants to be special between only herslef and Bette. Martin that is called a RED FLAG or a hint. Take the hint and cut your loses. Martin seems to be a safe place for Tina and a relationship should be about more than just being safe :o)
Girls you’ve got one hell of a story in your fingers, I wasn’t hardly breathing at all during my reading. Yes Caitlin was wrong cheating on Bette, but these things happen all the time, in my opinion people are not made for monogamy, they can try but… Anyhow, this story rocks, thanks for sharing.
wow this is a good story!!!! i cant wait til you post again. Im glad Tina is really trying to be their for her DESPITE the whole marriage to a guy thing
hopefully tina has just awoken, and she will go and get bette and make her, hers again.
