Rebuilding Chapter 4
“Bette, what about Jodi? You can’t do this and still be with Jodi. That’s not fair to her…”
“Kit, I broke up with Jodi last night after our appointment.”
Kit sat back in her chair, and let go of the breath that she didn’t even realize that she was holding. “What are you doing, Bette? What did Jodi say? Are you sure that this is what you want?”
“That’s just it Kit. I’m not sure what I’m doing. Jodi wasn’t right for me that I know. She was filling space and time when I was really lonely, and I realized that. We were not working lately, and I needed to end it. She was obviously hurt, and angry, and wants nothing to do with me. She’s convinced that there is someone else.”
“Has there been someone else lately?”
“Kit, there has always been someone else even when I’ve been single. If I am honest, I’ve never been over Tina. Even when Tina and I haven’t been on good terms, she was still there in my heart. Getting into a relationship with Jodi helped me heal some of the hurt from Tina, but I was never completely there emotionally with Jodi. It just felt good to have someone else there, looking back on it now. Timing obviously isn’t great, but I had to end it now.”
“So, is this what you want?”
“That’s just it, Kit. This is what I have always wanted. I want it so much that I am afraid that if I actually invest myself in this, that it won’t happen. I don’t know if I can recover if it doesn’t.” Bette confirmed what Kit suspected. She was going to do whatever she could to protect Bette. She had to admit to herself that the prospect of Bette and Tina together again was something that she wanted as well.
“Bette, does Tina want this too?”
“Yeah, she told me that she does.”
“Do you trust Tina?”
“With everything that I am, yes and it scares me.”
“This is only going to work, you are willing to take that chance. You both deserve to be happy and Angie deserves to have her mommies together – together, happy and in love. Not just together, because you think that you should be together for her. Tina knows you better than anyone else. I’m sure she can see your hesitation. If you’re going to do this, you need to take that leap of faith and trust that Tina is going to be there ready to do the work too.”

Somehow I missed chapter 3 but now I have caught up. I like your Kit better than the way they had Kit portrayed in the show. She was not too pleased with Bette and Tina hooking back up again in the show. I believe that Bette is willing to take that leap of faith now.
Great story QL…I like the direction much better than the one Ilene took…she must have missed a turn somewhere! Very well written!
Great update. Thankfully both Tina and Kit know Bette so well. Jump Bette, Tina will catch you. Lets just hope IC stays on track.
Those uncertainties seem to be going, for the moment anyway. Glad Bette’s taking the leap of faith. I hope their talk puts the rest of the fears to rest. Thanks for the chapter, QL.
please make them talk and go slow to be sure, alice is too much! :)PPS
Excellent chapter with good description and point on dialogue. I like the transition into their new lives together.
This is really good. I do hope they sit down and talk sometime soon. Thank you PPS
Bette is going to take Kit’s advice and put her faith in Tina right? I love how crazy Alice is but Tasha may have to keep her busy so Bette and Tina don’t strangle her. Looking forward to reading more!
