Remember Who You Are 31
Bette blinked, Tina’s words coating her insecurities with a calmness she had not felt in over a week. She took a deep breath and smiled sadly at her wife.
She moved her hand slowly and tenderly down Tina’s neck to lay her palm flat over her wife’s heart, her wrist in between her bare breasts.
Tina reached up to place her hand over Bette’s, moving her legs closer to the brunette, the sheet falling further down her waist to show her pelvic bone. It was a deeply intimate moment, and they stayed that way for a long-time.
Bette broke the silence, speaking wistfully…. “You are so beautiful, Tina. So precious to me. I would capture the moon for you if you asked me to. Let me do this today. Trust me, ok? Allow me to step away for a few hours and come up with some ideas on how we can move forward. It will make me feel better… to take action”.
“You mean everything to me, Bette. You are my world. My Life. My first and my last. Thank you for talking to me. For trusting me with your heart and for telling me what is on your mind. For letting me share your journey…”
“We need to be smart about the money from the studio, about Eric. Because he has hired one of the best law firms in the country to fight this.”
“How do you know that?” Tina asked quietly, her heart stuck in her throat, her fingers moving up Bette’s arm and back down again. She felt panicky at the mere mention of Eric’s name.
“I was on the phone for an hour with Joyce this morning. He was denied bail due to being a flight risk. Joyce really has no need to be involved at this stage since it is a criminal case but she has a contact in the D.A’s office in Chicago. She has recommended some law firms for us to look into if you get charged or if we go after him in a civil case.”
“Charged?”
“It’s highly unlikely but possible. You’re the victim, he will be prosecuted by the D.A. in the circuit court in Illinois.”

I love you story. The way you pick up on the nuances of the the characters in the show and put them in a different situation.
Thanks SuperK! I am enjoying your story as well!
Leo Herrera??? Whoa!!!! How is he connected to this story? Did he participate in the Helena conspiracy against Bette? And was this because of Lucy’s aid and assistance? There are more twist and turns, dips and rises than a world class roller coaster. I love it.
Good to see Bette opening up to Tina. And its good to see Tina coming to grips with her part in what happened. The biggest obstacle as with all of life is that hindsight is always 20-20. The true resolution is to accept the fact that a error was made and to do all you can not to repeat it. You can never undo that which has been done. So accept responsibility, apologize for your error and work toward doing better. And never, never stop talking. This is the lesson that both Bette and Tina have learned and continue to be aware of as they reaffirm their commitment to each other. It is a remarkable journey for these two that you are writing here.
I love, love, love this story – And to quote Dana “Ditto., love love”. Now I am anxious to find out the whole story on Lucy and on Donna and on Eric. These are characters that are like the energizer bunny – just keep on giving intrigue and drama.
Thank you for this.
Love your Dana quote Martha3128! I love your insights, especially about hindsight being 20.20 and that accepting errors is all a part of the journey. Lets see where this story takes us!
Talk about adding some more suspense to the Eric/Lucy/Mama Kennard trio!!! I like that Bette had been doing some digging into Eric and now we’re gonna see what’s really been up!!
Anyway, Chapters 30&31 have been enlightening as far as Tibette working on their fears & truths. I’m with Martha3128.
Thanks so much BK for the refreshing cold drink of water which this story has brought. Make sure to take care of yourself and refresh your soul as well dear lady 🥰
Thank you DumplinT. Take care of you as well :))
Oh these cliffhangers!

Please, please post again real soon
Stay safe

You got it SG!
BK, that was another amazing chapter. What a fantastic start to my day!
Finally Bette started to open up. No wonder those pictures and thoughts in her head keep her from sleeping. Good for Tina that she didn’t let up and prompted Bette to tell her at least some of the things that weigh heavily on her.
Great how you had Bette at the edge of losing her cool and let the frustration escalade into an argument. But once again she drew strenght from Tina’s words and her touch.
Just like Tina when she only needs Bette’s scent to feel calm and safe. I can so relate to that!
Again after nearly every chapter the wheels in my head starts turning. Thinking back to that evening in Chicago and Aaron’s heart attack. Were there investigations? Was it already ruled out that something might have triggered the heart attack? I think that Eric put something in Aaron’s champagne as well. That caused the heart attack and created enough distraction for Eric’s assault on Tina. He should be charged of attempted murder of Aaron on top of everything else.
It would be a smart move for Tina to get more legal enforcement in Chicago.
The Lucy story gets more complicated, right? Leo Herrera? Now what has he to do with all of it? Helping Eric?
Not so patienty waiting for more ;-)
Happy Easter, enjoy the time with your loved ones and stay safe.
cheers

Hey hey KP, Hope you are having a fantastic Easter. Did Eric also put something in Aaron’s drink and what could be the motive there – so many options. Trying to keep the story from becoming too complicated because I have a tendency to lose sight of some of the details…. but I do like a calmer Bette who is committed to talking and Tina is starting to take a lead in her own role in the relationship. Writing a grown up and more balanced couple has been fun for me. Thanks for your comments!
Wow, amazing chapter BK!
I really love this story! Your Tina and Bette are amazing and a joy to read about.
The others commented already what i thought or would say, i agree ???? with them.
Lucy, she is more involved then she told them, i am not sure if trust her. Leo Herrera, wow, she introduced him to Eric and he was a pain in the ass to Bette and involved with Helena who tried everything to destroy Bette.
Look forward to how Lucy explain this.
Keep save and healthy ????

You ever watch old I love Lucy shows where her husband (can’t remember his name) says something along the lines of “Luuucccy you got some ‘splaining to do” ?? Well that’s how I feel about Lucy in the next chapter. It is sink or swim time honestly… thanks for you comments, be well –
Lucy’s husband’s name was Ricky and your Lucy indeed has NOT come clean. I still dont trust her one bit. Still expecting Donna to come pounding on thei beach house any day now.
And where are those bloody lab results???? Has Bette asked Tasha to keep an eye pealed to make sure Eric hasn’t paid someone to “misplace” them??? I’m anxious
Ricky! yes! As soon as I read it, I was like d’oh of course.
You are correct, Donna is getting fidgety… she does NOT like to be kept waiting.
Ah yes the lab results. BRB I will just go and ask for them…. :))))
Leo Herrera ???? What’s going on, what did Lucy do ? Is she a spy for her parents or what ?
She is a total spy!! Especially when baracuda Mom starts pushing her buttons!!!
