Bette smiles and relaxes and lets her shoulders down. Tina pulls her down again.

“I love you.” Bette says after a few moments of silent stares between them.

“I love you too babe.” Tina says.

“I’m gonna live in one of Peggy’s apartments the first week. I’m going apartment hunting before I do anything else. I thought it would be best to do it that way. Better to see the apartment myself instead of just photos.” Bette says.

“Yeah, that’s best.” Tina agrees. “Please don’t get those typical British apartments, like the three stories high and so slim that you have to go sideways through the hallways.” Tina says.

“I won’t. I’ll get something that I know we both will like and that Angelica will like.” Bette says.

“Babe, we have to take into consideration that Evan might join us.” Tina says. “Martin is not there yet and… I will not leave him with another foster family. I can’t do that to him Bette.” Tina says.

Bette smiles up and once again takes Tina’s hand into hers.

“Babe, I would never ask you to do that. Neither would I want that. We’ll take him if Martin is not ready. I wouldn’t want it any other way.” Bette says and kisses Tina’s hand softly.

“Good.” Tina says silently as she leans down and kisses Bette softly on the lips.

They stay on the couch for the next two hours talking and sort of saying goodbye. Tina also called Shane over so she knew when to come over to watch the kids. Bette just had to go over everything once more and Tina smiles and let her. She started to carry the bags already checked out into the car. Shane came over.

“Hey guys, need any help?” She asks.

“No, we’re just about finished.” Tina says and smiles. Bette is inside taking a last look at Angie and Evan.

“How are you holding up?” Shane asks Tina.

“I’m good. I’m gonna miss her so, so much. We just found each other again and… But we’re both determined to make it. So I have a great feeling that it will be okay in the end. I can’t wait to join her there.” Tina says.

“That’s good Tina, I’m really happy for you, both of you. How is Angie taking it?” Shane asks.

“We had a hard time putting her to bed earlier. I guess there will be quite few phone calls in the beginning.” Tina says and smiles.

“Yeah, I can imagine. I’ll help you out Tina, whenever you need a babysitter, I’ll be there or one of the others will be. We’ll all help out.” Shane says.

“Thank you, that means a lot.” Tina says and gives Shane a hug.

Bette exits the hallway and comes up beside Tina.

“So I guess I’m ready.” Bette says and wipes away a tear.

“Oh baby.” Tina says as she sees the tear.

“I’m okay, it’s just hard leaving them.” Bette says and gives a small smile.

“I know baby. Come here.” Tina says and gives her a hug, then a small kiss as they separate from the hug.

“Bette, the guys are here, they’re outside. I told them to now go to the airport, because I figured you would want to spend that time with Tina, so I made them come here instead, so see you off.” Shane says.

“They’re here?” Bette asks as she moves across the living room and to the front door. She looks outside and sees Alice, Kit and Helena there, even Caitlin stands there. Tina moves up beside her and put her hand on the small of Bette’s back. She sees Caitlin there. Bette looks at Tina. “Hey, don’t get upset, please.” Bette says softly.

“I’m not. She’s your friend Bette, off course she should be here to say goodbye.” Tina says and smiles.

“Are you sure you’re okay with it?” Bette asks.

“I am, come on, let’s get out, don’t let them wait, and we’ll be late for the plane.” Tina says.

“Okay. Let’s go.” Bette says and takes Tina’s hand and they walk outside.
