Bette looked at her, stunned. Those words hitted her in the gut. She knew Tina had a point. She was seriously acting selfish. She wanted to do the right thing, and even if she thought that being with Tina, making love to her, holding her felt like it was, actually it wasn’t. It wasn’t enough to leave all the hurt they did to each other behind. «And do you understand how scared I am? What if you decide to turn to men, again? Huh? Don’t act like you are the only fucking one who’s been hurt. I lived hell when you left me for… For Him» she couldn’t say his name. The wound was still open and bleeding.
«Fuck you, Bette! I… I made a fool of myself, becoming the third woman, sleeping with you just because I love you. I, I’ve seen you jumping in the bed with me, without any hesitation, while you were in a relationship with Jodi and now… You say you are not sure if I’m not going to turn to men again? What about me? I could have thought that probably you were going to turn to another woman if we decided to give it another try, but I haven’t. I was starting to believe that what happened with Candace was a meaningless mistake. But, right now. Everything seems clear to me. Apparently, you’ve not changed… And I am not so sure if I want you again, anymore. The only thing I’m sure about is that… you fucking broke my heart, you did it again» as she said this last sentence, her voice broke.
Bette hated to see her hurting like that, she tried to get closer but Tina stopped her, «Don’t!».
She was starting to talk again when their little one popped out from the hall, she woke up from her nap. The blonde immediately wiped her eyes, but her baby noticed something was wrong with her mother. «Mommy, cry?»
Tina’s heart broke one more time. «It’s nothing, baby. It’s okay. Mommy just got a boo-boo, it’s going to be alright. Give me a hug, come here»
Bette left out a gasp. She couldn’t say anything, the lump formed in her throat almost made her choke.
She just stared at the two of them.

How the hell did they get there?
Their family. The one they always dreamt about.
It wasn’t supposed to be this way.
