Henry: Maybe that’s how it was at the beginning but things changed for me Tina. After everything with trial and you deciding to move in with Mikey and me; I really thought we had a shot. I fell in love with you Tina. I love your daughter and I wanted us to be a family.
Tina: I’m sorry Henry but I don’t want that. I no longer have any ambiguity about my sexuality. I’m a lesbian. I clearly prefer women and I could never fully commit to a heterosexual monogamous relationship with you or any other man. I’m sorry I mislead you. I can’t be what you want me to be.”
***
After leaving Henry Tina moved back to West Hollywood into a three bedroom condo not far from where she’d lived with Bette. She started seeing Kate Arden but that was just a sex thing and ended when Kate moved back to New York.
Being a single mom with a precocious four year old made having an active sex life challenging but Tina managed. Her job required some travel so she had a nanny for Angie and if needed she would spend the night. Tina would take advantage of the out of town trips to hit the local bar scene and make hook-ups. She also went out in Los Angeles but was careful not to frequent the WeHo lesbian clubs or bars where she was likely to run into any of the old gang. She didn’t do relationships and it wasn’t until Angie got sick that she found herself alone without any real friends or family and missing the support system that she’d always been able to depend on.
The illness started with a high fever and flu like symptoms. Angie had always been a very healthy child and rarely succumbed to ailments so the diagnosis of a rare blood disease came as a shock. Tina’s first thought was that it was hereditary; perhaps something in her or passed on from Marcus that they’d missed but that was ruled out. Marcus’ sperm and blood test had not shown any genetic or infectious diseases nor did Tina’s bloodwork.
Tina didn’t know where to turn until one day when she’d found herself standing on the sidewalk outside of the Planet. She didn’t recall making a conscious decision to seek Kit out but once there she went inside the cafe. Naturally Kit was standoffish at first but Tina’s demeanor was so desperate that she couldn’t turn her away; besides that she missed Angie and wanted news of how her niece was faring with her new family. Tina told Kit that she and Henry had broken up and they had no family but the most heartbreaking part was finding out how sick Angie was and how poor her prognosis for survival if they didn’t find a bone marrow donor in time.

Thanks for the update. Enjoyed it. I really don’t like this Tina very much. She needs to get over herself.
I loved the update but there is a sadness about it due to the relational situation among the three of them. Bette and Tina have a ways to go in reestablishing trust between them.
Well, I have truly missed your stories and the way you create them. There is a heaviness to the story but I think its because we love our favorite couple being together. This is a story of healing for both Bette and Tina and maybe their healing as they were and can be as co-relational adults with Angie. I do hope that Tina can lighten up as she so much into fear and distrust. She is feeling something deep about Bette’s pregnancy, hmmm I wonder what it is?
Great read my friend!
I’m a little puzzled by Tina’s reaction. Yes it was a shock but the dramatic crying and running away? Is she realizing she won’t have Bette in this paralyzing hold now that she has her own child that she can’t take it away? And what did she mean “will she have a role in the baby’s life?” That would be a far stretch if Bette would consider her as her sons other mother. Love this story, please keep posting.
I am glad to see you are back…love this story!
Great to see that you´re back. Enjoy this story very much,. Not too fond of Tine though.
I love your writing, and most of the story, but that are a little mixed feelings to me.
on the one hand the eternal heart Tibetter really like to Angie and the unborn baby boy again bring together Bette and Tina.
on the other hand, I understand what in the author note you wrote.
Tina’s behavior is not understandable for me at this point. simply don’t understand why there was such hostility toward Bette. Tina decisions and/fears made on the one hand of post-natal depression, but many years of hostility is not!
I don’t understand why they don’t sat down and talked to the situation and started with a clean slate after Bette saved Angie’s life. it would have been very painful and difficult, but necessary!
I hope you find a way to end up to be a family and maybe a couple together! (because Tina’s reaction to me shows that deeply buried in herself, but she still feels something towards Bette)
This Tina is a real BITCH! I understand what Bette did but she has paid the major price for it! Tina needs professional help for her head and feelings. Angie was just sad when she thought Tina was coming to get her. That child will need professional help also after all this. Just let them work it out! PPS
Well well well :-) what can I say Champ? So happy to see few posts from you.
Hahahahahahahaaaaa! I so know this style.
After reading the 3 posts, am I right to say that, champ, you have no intention to put Bette and Tina back together sometime soon if ever?
Why am I believing that?
How can they? After what went on between them?
Tina talked to Bette like a nobody, like someone who was unable to have her own child and that she , Tina, was allowing to feel like a mother she, in reality, is not. Tina appeared controlling, rude and nasty to Bette although, Bette already paid for what she has done.
Tina was showing her power over Bette using Bette’s affection for Angie. That is disgusting, low and incomprehensible. I usually love Tina and defend her, But, I have to say, Champ, you managed to show us a Tina we don’t recognise.
How they relationship can recover from this? Well, it could but it would take a long time. I personally don’t think they can recover unless Tina humbly recognises her part in what Bette did and has an heart to heart confession before they work on their trust and love for each other.
If I was Bette no way I would have wanted to be back with Tina after non only the way she treated her in the kidnapping case but also the way she talked to her until she knew Bette was pregnant.
I know you Champ :-). I know your dislike of Tina’s attitude toward Bette on the show.
I will wait to see where you are going with this, hoping you will make the golden couple so resilient that they will be able to conquer each other’s love again. Am I dreaming? Hahahahahahahaha let see Champ. Wait and see.
I have to agree with others about your version of tina I don’t care much for her in this story but I love your take on bette why is she so concerned about tinas feeling when its plain she dosnt care about bettes pps.
Why on earth Tina even thought she would have a role in Bette’s child life? The nerve (and self-importance) of the woman. I think it’s safe to say there is no future Tibette in this story (thank God), because it would be ridiculous (not to mention disgusting) in the light of three years incarceration and all. I don’t know where you are going with the story, but I want it to be about a woman (Bette) getting back on her feet again, building her strong family around her, enjoying her motherhood and life in general. (with as little Tina as possible, lol)
Also, someone should tell Tina there is such thing as being bisexual, because that “we liked each other, we were attracted to each other, we liked fucking. You were so cool with me being a lesbian.” sounded offensive as hell to me.
That’s was great. Loving this story!
Love the concept of this story but hat Tina. PPS!
Ugh sometimes Tina just pisses me off thats all I gotta say on this chapter
