She lowered her forehead again to Bette’s shoulder and took several deep long breaths. She forced herself to steady her breathing, regain stability, to focus on the moment and sort her feelings. Bette’s body molded perfectly against hers, the warmth coming off her to surround and soothe. She smelled so good, Tina thought and she could feel the strength in her wife’s arms, in her back, in her. Their breasts were pressed together, and that felt really good too, calming her.
Tina turned her head again to snuggle closer to the sanctuary of Bette’s neck. She closed her eyes, knowing she was unraveling, knowing she needed to get a grip. Bette’s hand came up to gently, lovingly touch the back of Tina’s head, keeping her there, keeping her close. More minutes ticked by as they swayed, another song starting, the dance floor filling up around them but unnoticed as their hearts spoke to one another.
Bette was right. Tina knew this. She was being egotistical and had slipped back into old habits of accusations and unfair finger pointing. Just like when she had blamed Bette for the miscarriage and punished her relentlessly by flaunting first Helena then Henry in front of her. The old patterns of communication needed to stop. Bette had done the hard work, surpassing Tina in her therapeutic journey and it was time Tina was accountable for how she behaved moving forward. She had to do better. She knew this, had known this for some time.
Blinking several times, her eyelashes moist and a few tears making their way down her cheeks, she raised her head while at the same time Bette lowered her head so Tina could lay her cheek against hers.
In sync again.
The warmth of Bette’s skin seeped into her own and she sighed, melting fully into Bette, allowing herself finally to be held. After a few minutes, her hands roamed unhurriedly up Bette’s sides, drawing on her strength as she moved them up towards her neck where her arms settled, her wrists linking behind Bette’s head. Rubbing her cheek on Bette’s, she turned her head towards her ear without breaking the skin on skin contact, Bette again moving her head to be closer too.

Someone needs to lay Eric and his petty ego out on the floor. He is harassing Tina and making her job miserable. He needs blanket a party and Jodie is next. Tina is so passive aggressive to blame Bette. I m glad that Bette called her on it.. What a horrific work environment. PPS
Hi BK,
I am happy you didn’t go Black Friday shopping but instead wrote this chapter.
For one second i was afraid Tina was about to give in to Eric! It wasn’t a good move of her to drink so much wine and at the end to lash out on Bette. She said some very hurtfull words and yes whined as a small child.
Tina is a grown up woman and falls fast back on old behaviour when she is insecure. She can learn from Bette, she has matured so much and was right to tell off Tina. Maybe some therapy would be good for her.
But i loved how gentle and stern Bette spoke to Tina while dancing and making Tina feel protected at the same time.
Thank you for a wonderful chapter!
Oh and please kick Eric back in the dark hole he crawled out of! Tina should report Eric for harassing Tina! Same for Jodie.
Tina..Tina…Tina. Why on earth would you blame Bette for your bad situation with Eric. Tina has been a strong and courageous woman. Its time to take responsibility and not allow Eric to get away with his behavior. After the 2nd glass of wine, you should have left the table. As soon as Eric put his arm around Tina, she should have objected with something like “Eric, I am not your girlfriend and I am not your date to this event. And therefore I would appreciate it if you would not act as if I were and keep your hands off of me.” He is going to keep pushing until Tina does something. Call him out on his bad behavior. And do it publicly. I recommend a swift knee to the groin! Remember, Tina is planning on creating her own studio and leaving Aaron and Eric to their own devices.
As to Jody? Well, let’s see what happens to her. Surely she will get her just rewards sooner or later. You cannot keep getting over on people forever. Sooner or later that which she sewed will grow into her reward. She will need something from Bette and Tina someday and they will not hesitate to say sorry, no can do!
I love the way Bette handled this. She latched on and would not let Tina run. That was what was about to happen. Tina is now having to figure out how to resolve her problems in a more mature way. She still has to tell Bette the entire story about Eric. Brilliant move on Bette’s part. I’m sure Bette was not sure that she would get the desired results, But Bette’s new method of confronting the problem head on and not allowing Tina to run will give more success to their relationship than failures. This is another episode which will make their relationship stronger and more lasting. Beautifully written.
Love this story bunches. Cannot wait for the next chapters….
Thanks for posting! Reading your latest chapter made this cold, wet and dark winterly weekend much more bearable :-)
Great interaction between T + B. Not all love, peace and harmony but a few bumps on the way which Bette handled very well. Tina saw where she has to work on herself for the sake of their marriage.
I’m with Martha: please let Tina find some more self-confidence and tell Eric the caveman to show some professional behaviour. I hope she finds this strenght before the trip to Chicago. And after putting him in his place, she should concentrate on starting her own business.
Looking forward to the next part.
I really love this, so glad you did not go shopping!
Looking forward to your next post!
