Seeing Shane’s caller id on the phone, Carmen had no idea what to do. Staring at it for a while, she let it ring through to answer phone.
Sighing, Shane decided that the best she could do was leave a message.
“Baby…it’s me. I…I guess you had second thoughts about talking to me, but I couldn’t just ignore your call. I have so many things to say to you, and then nothing at all….if that makes any sense. I can’t stop thinking about you, Carmen. I haven’t been able to since that day. I hurt you so bad baby, and even I don’t think I’ll ever be able to forgive myself for that. But life without you…before I met you I was nothing. And I’m not just saying that to try and play on your emotions. With you I felt alive for the first time. And without you, well I just feel dead inside. I need you Carmen…” Shane choked on the tears that she was no longer holding back “I love you baby” she managed to whisper before hanging up.
Only a mile apart, the two women sat holding their phones, crying until it seemed as though there were no more tears left.
In the motel room, Bette paced up and down. Knowing Carmen had at least made some kind of attempt at contact with Shane was making her nervous. Why hadn’t she heard anything from Tina? Even an abusive phone call would be better than nothing at all. If there was one thing that she couldn’t take, it was being ignored.
Bette’s thoughts were interrupted by Shane returning to the room. She stopped her pacing and waited for some kind of indication of where things were at from her friend. Shane simply shrugged her shoulders.
“Did you speak to her?” Bette asked.
“I left her a message” Shane wiped away the last of her tears “it was the best I could do”
“Come here” Bette stretched out her arms to embrace Shane.
“I just…I just need to hear her voice. I’m going crazy without her” Shane broke down into tears again.
“I know Shane, I know” Bette rubbed her friends back.
The two women sat in silence for a moment, both concerned about the other but also very much wrapped up in their own problems.

oh, i hope things will work out for them both…i can’t believe tina is choosing henry for now
Tina is just being disrespectful by letting Henry stay at the house in the first place, now the guilt trip on Bette. Glad Shane & Carmen are working it out. Slap some senses into Tina will you. Thanks for the quick post.
First, the audacity for Tina to think that she would be able to share Bette’s house, their home, with Henry, and then guilt her when she she couldn’t have her cake and be able to eat it too. What did she think Bette would have done…continue to bend over backwards for her forsaking her domicile and happiness? Secondly, why is Carmen living at the house, making Shane stay away, when Shane and Jenny were the actual/original tenants? Shouldn’t Carmen have gone to her parents to lament the embarrassment and loss of her relationship? Lastly, what are these chapters only one page long? I would love to read more. TY.
why are these chapters only one page, not what are… sorry.
I was trying to be nice to to Tina today but after reading this I want to rip her head off. She has g-damn nerve to be living it up in Bette’s house with Henry and Henry has got even the bigger nerve to step to Bette like it’s his own damn house. He thinks that just because he’s fcking Tina he has rights? Please! This may sound cruel but Bette does need to kick Tina out if she continues to parade Henry around the house like the “Beaver Family.” Also I echo seven’s comments about carmen living at the house, what’s that about? Anyhoot post soon!
this story is hurting, the finale move by Bette was the stupidest move ever and I hated the writers and IC for going down that road and your rendition up to this point is painful but truthful to how it was playing out. Hope you find a way for these two to communicate.
Great to have you back…and you must have got something right, because I am just as pissed at your Tina as I am with IC’s!!!! LOL Who the hell does Henry think he is!???? Welcome Back!!!
Okay, I’m diggin’ this chap . . . lovin’ it even . . . Just let me get somethin’ clear . . . Tina AND Henry are both in BETTE’S house keeping her away from her house. I’m glad Bette finally relized how fucked up that was, lmao. And another thing, why is Carmen at Jenny and Shane’s house keeping Shane away from her own house? . . . Please continue you got me hooked . . . LYLAS
Wow, Tina has a LOT of nerve having Henry there. I can’t stand him. Great story, you seem to be stirring emotion in everyone.
Who in the Hell does Henry think he is. He was lucky that Bette didnt throw him out on his ass. How can Tina disrepect Bette and bring him there. He had somewhere to live before he met Tina Let them go there. Carmen in Shane house what is wrong with this picture. Shane and Bette on the curb and Tina with her Boy toy in Bette home Okay I;ll stop. thanks
You have me in total and complete pain… Tina’s a total bitch, but, somehow, I really want her and B to find a way… Sigh, go Tibetters.
I love that Shane is making some progress, poor Bette. I look forward to your next update!
