“What I can’t believe is all the unexpected turn of events that have sidetracked me during that time. We have so much to be thankful for and so much to look forward to in the coming months. James, we’re about to get very busy; so this time spent with your family might actually be a blessing.”
“A blessing for me, but it means time away from your girlfriend. How’s Tina handling you and Alex being gone for two months in New York?”
“To be honest I’m not so sure since she hasn’t voiced an opinion. I think she was rather relieved that I’d found something to occupy my time. She was feeling guilty about taking off to Canada for six to eight weeks of location shooting. We hardly see each other now as it is.”
“But you and Alex were planning to visit her in Canada before this came up, weren’t you? Now you won’t see her at all.”
“Actually, no she didn’t want us to come there. She said they were shooting in a pretty remote region and will be roughing it most of the time. Shooting on location isn’t as glamorous as it sounds and certainly no place for a baby. Besides, her time will be spent struggling to stay on budget and keeping their time schedule. More often than not the production is at the mercy of outside forces; the weather, temperamental actors, egotistical directors or bureaucratic delays in getting permits. The hours are erratic, and if her current schedule is any indication she’ll be putting in ridiculously long days and nights. I suggested maybe I could leave Alex with Kit and Angus and come by myself on weekends, but she insisted even for me it wasn’t a good idea. She said she wouldn’t be good company when she’s that stressed. She doesn’t get that I don’t need to be entertained. I just don’t want to be apart from her for so long.”
“I can’t imagine being away from Lisa and J.J. for eight days much less eight weeks no matter how busy or exhausted I might be. I would especially miss my wife’s warm body next to mine during those frigid Canadian winter nights. I don’t mean to be crude, but it sounds like the honeymoon is over if Tina doesn’t even want an occasional booty call.”

It’s time Bette and Tina have a heart to heart conversation. The last three of this chapter are so comforting. Will Bette hear the sadness Tina is feeling? Will Tina hear the longing in Bette’s voice? What will it take for these two to trust each other?
I can see Bette on a plane…
Still loving loving this story… if you are feeling generous tomorrow I won’t complain.
Tina thought she could handle Kate on her own but it doesn’t look like it. Bette will put her in her place. They have money, power and connections. Kate will never work in Hollywood again. Tina has to trust Bette to know what to do and how to do it.
Tina needs to talk to Bette and Bette needs to listen.
I hate Kate, please let Tibette become the force to see her off.
Thanks for 3 quick posts, a repeat would be wonderful!
Wow! This could sound harsh and I apologize in advance – but Tina has to get her act together and soon. It’s either that or she will loose Bette for good. It seems that Bette is making every effort to support Tina and complies with her wishes/demands, but there is little she gets in return. What is Tina playing at still tolerating Kate’s inappropriate behavior without taking proper actions to stop her. Seems that she perhaps isn’t so opposed to Kate’s advances. Because really she could just speak to Peggy and explain the situation and I am sure that nobody would blame her if they lost Kate as the director and if her behavior would be made public it surely would harm Kate’s reputation and make it difficult for her to ever direct serious movies again. I’m not sure that I would like for Bette to just show up unannounced in Canada just to again be rebuffed by Tina. Perhaps it’s time that Tina does the chasing and shows that she is committed to make her relationship with Bette and Alex work. Looking forward to your next post and as always thank you for sharing your exceptional talent with us.
First, let me give you a great big Texas thank you for all the posts today. Also I agree 10k percent with the posters before me on their opinions about what needs to be done about Bette and Tinas’ situation. I, too, think Tina should trust Bette and tell her what is going on and they together can talk to Peggy and get this stuff straightened out and get kate the hell away from them. Thanks again for the posts. Have a great weekend.
please let Tina tell Bette whats going on.
I don’t want anyone’s part at this story because it has its flaws and what Bette and Tina committed against their relationship.
we know that this is a pre-written story, and we just have to wait for what the future holds, but sometimes it’s hard to wait when such obvious things “annoy” the reader :-D
I don’t want to repeat what others have already been described because they are perfectly summed up what should be done if they both want the relationship to work yet!
I look forward to the next chapter!
We’ll dang missy git’er did!…this is too intense!..we got ourselves one of those page turner don’t put it down til we find out what happens to our beloved Tibette story!…boom!…You shor do know how to write’m…what a storyteller you is…heck yeah…Well now I’ma gon sit back n let you drive and enjoy da ride!…come right back soon nuff…ya hear!..kaboom!…**wink** xoxo
I am having a difficult time accepting that Tina is dealing with the advances of Kate by not dealing with them. This is not the accretive and aggressive Tina that I have come to know in the story,. After recently finding closure of the abuse that Bette suffered, it seems that Tina would not tolerate the behavior of Kate for any reason because she knows the impact it has on someone. I am struggling with why is Tina so lost… what else is going on in her world that would prevent her from fighting back?
Tina needs to come clean with Bette and soon. Thanks
Tina needs to talk to Bette tell that kate
is sexually harassing her.
5 stars.
