Realizing – chapter 6
“Good, because I want you in her life. Like the sweet aunt, she could always count on.” Bette says. Caitlin chuckles and wipes her tears away.
“I’d like that very much.” Caitlin says. She can’t seem to stop crying. Bette pulls her into a hug.
“It’s not goodbye, just see you later.” Bette says, trying to comfort her.
Caitlin pulls away a little and looks into Bette’s eyes. Suddenly she leans quickly and kisses Bette softly on the lips, while her tears still flow. Bette is a little taken back by it.
“I’m sorry. I just…It’s hard to let go… I needed a last kiss. I’m sorry, I’ll leave now.” Caitlin says.
“It’s okay.” Bette says and pulls her back into a last hug. “I’ll miss you. I’ll call you when I’m ready.” Bette whispers.
“Okay.” Caitlin says. She then leaves and Bette closes the door.
The hours go by. Bette is playing with Angelica outside on the patio. She hears a car stop and the door shut. Moments later Tina enters the patio from the driveway.
“Hey, I heard Angel, so I came here.” Tina says and walks slowly in and takes a seat on the opposite side of Bette.
“Hey.” Bette replies.
“Mommy.” Angelica says and walks into her arms.
“Hey baby, I missed you.” Tina says and kisses her cheek. “I heard you didn’t want to play with the other kids?” Tina asks.
Angelica looks down.
“No.” Angelica finally says.
“Why sweetie?” Bette asks as she moves closer.
“Baby, you have to tell us, otherwise we can’t help you or make it better.” Tina says softly.
“Mama.” Angelica says and reach out her arms for Bette to take her.
“Tell us.” Bette says and takes her into her arms.
“Bjown. You and me.” Angelica says.
Tina understands right away and moves her hand to cover her mouth. Tears start to form right away.
“Oh my God.” Tina says. Just then Bette realized it too.
“Oh sweetie. Is it because all the children are lighter than you?” Bette asks softly.
“Yes.” Angelica replies.
“Only me.” Angelica continues.
“Yes sweetie, but that is okay. You don’t have to quit playing with them just because of that.” Bette continues.
Tina stands up and walks a few feet away. Bette can hear her silent cries.

I love this story. please post soon.
The racial issue was one of the most salient of S1, in my opinion, and deserves further exploration. Thanks for tackling it! Glad Bette and Caitlin could leave each other smiling. It’s nicer all around when a break can be done that way. For Bette to be so composed after finding another woman in her bed – what can I say? She’s a champ, that Bette Porter is better than me. …Thanks!
Good chapter. Good Caitlin is now out of the picter and now is Tina turn to kick Martin out too so let B&T get back to gether and be happy as a family. OK now let see Tina answer. OK post soon please, thanks!
Tina has a crack in her wall and that crack is spreading by the second. Bette did what any mother would do to protect her child. She is so right for Angelica and I am glad that she realized that before moving to San Fran.
Very nice chapter, filled with lots of pieces; looking forward to you putting the T&B puzzle back together again. Great work!!
Tina cant answer Bette. Yet Bette is giving up a better job to try to make Angelica a happier child They say a child shall lead you. Maybe that is what will happen. thanks
Lauren 25, not you too? You have now joined the official fanfic “leave em hangin” club. Oh, sure you didn’t know that one existed…but it does. Lots of fanfic writers are in it, and now you too are a member. Congrats ! (LOL)Okay, back to my comment. It was so sweet the way Bette talked to Angelica and told her how important it is for her to play with all the kids and that her skin color doesn’t matter. Tina is so busy at work, that she seems to be working herself to the ground. Is she trying to work alot to stay away from Martin ? Maybe she needs to let Bette know that Martin doesn’t give her earth shattering hapiness when he looks at her. Only Bette does that…right?
cpq we are thinking a like regarding the day care; especially in LA, it almost seems hard to select such a day care unless it was in Beverly Hills, so many children are of mixed heritage in that area; will this Tina ever grow up and just tell Bette how she feels and what she wants? Did she only say yes to Martin ’cause Bette told her too? Give us TiBette, but let Tina be a bit more grown up, please
this is going really good…now it’s tina turn to realize something…hopefully she will do it soon and be honest about it
Is very good thing that Caitlin talk to Bette for stay, definitly Angel need her, and now that Bette had an open heart talk with Tina she need to do the same and be honest with Bette abaout her feelings!
I am really liking this new story. I hope Tina wakes up soon and smells the flowers. Her and Bette are just ment to be together. Thank you
hey..where is the next pages??? why you stoped there??? mean woman…that was for sure a really good chapter..Angelina need to learn we all all diferent that is what maked unique..Bette did great..now i hope her and Tina try to find each other again..and kick bore martin out..great chapter..thanks
ops..Angelica..not Angelina..i blame Angelina Jolie..cuz she is always on my mind..lol..Cat baby im kidding..you know you are the only one in my mind and heart forever..
Tina’s head is bowed so thats got to be a NO? great now please don’t make her a slower learner!!! great story PPS
lol…yeah Pandora good save….I am glad Bette is staying…Angelica needs her. She can help her get over her insecurities, I am glad the kids aren’t teasing her. It’s so nice to have different races and colors of people can you imagine if everyone looked the same no variety? I hope Bette gets Tina to open up and tell her her true feelings. Sorry Martin.
I like Caitlin and I would like to see that work out.
I am enjoying your new story, please put B&T back together, hope there is a new chapter soon.
Lets get them talking about their feelings…….post soon…. I am addicted…..
hey…..u cant do that…..keep us hangin……damn……so whens the next post??? this is a very crucial moment for us tibetters……..post soon…..
Well at least we now know Martin hasn’t been putting ideas in Angelica’s head. He still has to go though.
Post soon, please! I’m addicted.
Love this story, let’s get them talking and back together. Of course, Tina still loves and wants Bette, she just needs to tell her, an dtell Martin, GOODBYE.
Okay, Bette idin’t lie to Tina when she questioned her, so why is Tina attempting to lie to Bette. Bette should be able to look her in thr eyes and tell that she is trying to lie. B&T should also attemp to put Angelica is a more diverse Daycare. She will not feel like she sticks out like a sore toe if she is in a more diverse surroundings and it would be better for her emotional growth :o)
I hope that Bette isn’t setting herself up for another devestation. post soon!
