Realizing – Chapter 7
“Please stay. Just for tonight?” Martin asks.
“Are you sure?” Tina asks.
“Yeah, I’m sure. Please.” Martin says.
“Okay.” Tina replies and lay back down on her pillow. She turns so she’s facing Martin.
“You want to talk about it?” He asks.
“About what?” Tina asks.
“About the situation, the feelings, everything.” Martin says.
“You want to talk to me about my feelings?” Tina asks.
“Sure, if you want to. It might help you put things into perspective.” Martin says. “As much as I want you, I want you to be happy. I f you can’t be happy with me, I wish you happiness somewhere else.” Martin says.
“You have a sweet, loving and kind soul. That’s three of the reasons I fell for you.” Tina says and smiles.
“There was more?” He asks grinning.
“Yeah. You’re very handsome, have a great sense of humour. I love your laugh, it’s so honest and real.” Tina says with a smile.
“That’s what I love about you too. And your personality, you’re smile, lights up a dark room.” He says and moves his hand and softly touches Tina’s chin. “Can I ask you something?” He asks.
“Off course.” Tina replies.
“What it is about Bette?” Martin asks and removes his hand.
“You really want to hear that?” Tina asks.
“Not really, but I think I need to hear it.” He replies.
Tina looks at him and takes his hand in hers.
“When I first met her all those years ago, my world stopped. She took my breath away.” Tina starts. “As we got to know each other, I just fell so deeply in love with her. She has the most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen. I love her laugh too. And her hands, I love her hands, so strong and beautiful.” She stops and smiles. She looks at him. “You want me to continue?” Tina asks.
“Go ahead.” He replies.
Tina stays quiet for a while. She realizes suddenly that she should be telling this to Bette, not him, even if he wanted to hear it.
“Martin… I need to go. I’m sorry.” Tina says and gets up and out of bed. She gets dressed in no time.
“Tina, where are you going?” He asks.
“I need to talk to Bette. I’m sorry. I… I don’t know what to say. I’m so sorry. I’ll be back later.” Tina says and runs out of the bedroom. She grabs her purse and keys and leaves.
Over at Bette’s house:
She’s about to get to bed. She undresses in front of the bed. And before she gets into bed, she walks in to check on Angelica. She’s sound asleep. She leans down and kisses her on the forehead. She closes the door and walks back to the guestroom and into bed. She takes the books she’s reading in her lap, put on her glasses and opens it up. After reading one page, the door bell goes off.
“What the hell.” Bette says and gets out of bed and glances at the clock, it’s almost midnight. She’s dressed in a pj bottom and a white tank top. She walks up to the door and opens it up.
“Tina?” She says quite surprised.

Well at least Martin was good for something. He got Tina to quit lying to herself. Okay I’m kidding. He still seems like a bit of a wuss to me but man am I glad he wasn’t a jackass. And I don’t think Tina thinks of Bette’s hands as just strong and beautiful either. ;)
Don’t stop there ! You’ve got me on the edge of my seat !
OMG..that was mean..really really..please let them talk..but no talk in bed..lol..and since i know you..i know that will not happen that soon..lol..great chappy..im glad Tina was honest with her heart..thanks
oh come on now why did you stop there???? to kill us all with anticipation??? LOL i cant wait til you post again
OMG, you did not just stop there. I have to give Martin credit, what a nice guy. But, come on, you can’t leave us hanging here.
Nice afternoon treat and I’m looking forward to dinner later tonight, hint hint! :-)
What a great chapter but a crap ending please please post soon and give us Tina talk to Bette
Please post soon..love your story….cannot wait 2 c what happens with them….
Wow…I agreed with Bette when she told Tina she can’t keep being hot and cold…but I disagreed with her when she told her that the decision should be an easy one…they have alot to work out and ol Marty Mar was a safe choice. I am glad he took this like a champ…GO MARTY!…lol. So…if I read correctly Bette got undressed and then was all over the house so when she checked the door was she clothed? Or will Tina have easy access…Please post soon.
ooo u have to update asap……cannot wait for the talk……..
Martin seems to be a good man but he isn’t Bette. B&T reunion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hopefully.
I am glad that Tina has finally gotten clearity. She needs to come clean with Bette and it would be great for Angelica to wake up and find her Mommie’s cuddled up spooning on the sofa. Very good chappie Lauren :o)
Thanks for the update…I’m glad that Tina did some real soul searching and decided that Bette was the right choice. Martin is a kind man…
great cliff hanger, please post soon. I want to see if Tina can articulate her feelings honestly.
Again with the “leave them hangin'” ending? You are killing us!! ( LOL) I can’t wait for Tina to tell Bette her feelings. Let the NC-17 loving begin !!! Right Lauren, NC-17? Come on it Portard Time !!
Aaa man not nice to leave us like this my friend and hope you will POST SOON, thanks. This is awesome and can’t wait to see they are back together as a family agian, and I agree with Lamentamini and let see whats next, thanks!
martin surely is a nice guy but this is what he is, just nice and bette is exciting and a true love…post soon
Finally, both are coming to their senses and placing their head where their hearts have been all a long. Neither Catilyn nor Martin can hold a candle to Tina or Bette. Again it takes Angel to open their eyes to the fact that they love each other unconditionally.
great finally Tina find out what she wants now it’s time to a lot of talk
Bette wouldn’t leave Angie would she?
damn skippy!!
Hey Lauren, I adore ths tale. Finally Tina is being honest with her own feelings and emotions. You do get what you settle for. I think that Bette was right to go after Tina and sort out her own thoughts first. This prompted Tina to re-evaluate her situation and admit that Bette has her heart and soul. Martin was a distraction; a way to lead a traditional life and be easily integrated into society but at the cost of true happiness and completeness. This is too high a price and I am so happy that Tina realized where she belongs and who totally fills her heart. I just hope that she hasn’t left it too late. It will be interesting to see how the gang react to this news, Can’t wait. Thak you so much for this morning pleasure. Your Loyal Fan.
lmao…i mean ‘godfather’
WELL….i just hate u 4 stopping right there…and i knew as soon as she got stuck on bette’s hands that she’d up and leave martin in the lurch but he sounds like a really really nice guy so maybe he can be godfater to their boy when he’s born….PPS
Wow Tina. So she just runs out of the bedroom and leaves Martin like that. I really feel bad for Martin…he is a good man. He still loves Tina, after all this crap. He’s stuck bt thie B&T drama. Poor guy should’ve known he was going to lose. So Caitlin’s OUT(yay), now Martin’s OUt(yay).Whats Next?..post soon Lauren.
Martin is a nice decent guy. He just wants Tina to be happy. Tina and Bette need to really talk. Angie needs to sane Moms. thanks
Great update!Please post soon!
Love the new story as you so well know – and I want more of it :o) – so please continue very soon Lauren.
