Say Nothing Chapter 17
“Logistically? That sounds like a business term. Maybe you should stop trying to figure it out and just let it happen. When I knew I was coming here, I decided that I was just going to put the cards on the table and see how they played out. Most of it has played out better than I had any expectation that it could. I guess what I really want is a relationship with you and I am willing to try to make it work. Long distance or in the same city. I am welling to work at it. Are you?” Tina’s words had softened and her eyes moved from Bette to the ocean that lie in front of her.
Gently, Bette placed her fore finger under Tina’s chin and slowly turned her head toward her. “So you do want a relationship?” Bette looked directly into Tina’s eyes. “I guess I will need to keep a suitcase packed because if I want to see you, I am just going to book a flight and come!” That was Bette’s way of answering Tina.
“And the bed will always be ready for you to join me.” Tina understood the answer.
Their eyes smiled their happiness. Hands clasped, fingers intertwined a gentle squeeze reaffirmed their intentions.
“Shall I give Alice her first exclusive?”
“And what would that be?”
“That you are officially off the market.” Tina’s eyes looked deep into Bette for the reaction.
“And who should I tell?” Bette still did not know how to handle all of this.
“Nobody ever thought I was on the market so, there is no one to tell.” Tina smiled and leaned in to Bette for a kiss.
“I think I like this already.” Bette whispered through soft kisses.
“I was hoping that you would.”
They sat for a while together. Simple glances, touches and smiles saying all of the things that neither of them could articulate.
“Will you stay with me again tonight?”
“There is no place I’d rather be.”

Bette and Tina had another beautiful night together and Monday morning arrived with questions. As they awoke and snuggled, showered and made strong coffee, Bette began. “When do you have to go back?” Trying to hide her emotions.

I hope that your time with your family goes well. Enjoy that special time with them. I am excited that Bette and Tina have decided to continue this relationship whether long distance of in the same house.
Hope everything works out fine for you, sweetie. As for this update, it was enchanting, dearest DJRK. Tina is really finding the right way to relax Bette and give the exhibit a good perspective. Now that both have agreed to the path they shall take, they are more at ease with each other and able to express more their true feeling. Hugs and kisses on both your cheeks. Give our best to your beautiful half ChaCha. She’s a real keeper. PPS Lucero & Marsha (JC’s Salsa Aunties)

Thanks so much for another chapter. Your Tina is unravelling control freak Bette and it is wonderful
wow, another great chapter… u really didn’t disappoint us… and pps…:)
I absolutely love this story. I am so glad that your partner gave you some new ideas, so it can continue for awhile. Enjoy your Thanksgiving and your time with your father. I took care of my mother who had alzheimer’s for over seven years. Although, it was a daily experience, I was happy that I could be there for her.
watching them part will be torture…make the time go by fast please. i think bette feels if tina moves she will lose some of what makes her the “tina kenard” and the love of art in her will not let her agree to tina giving up her creativity.
Everything’s working out very nicely. I wonder how long it will be until one or the other moves their life halfway across the world? Hope your visit and the dinner go well. Lovely chapter, thanks for posting, djrk.
I love this story and I love Thanksgiving…it is probably my favorite holiday. Food, Family, Friends and Football. What more could we ask for? Oh…and update to this story! So glad you are going to continue it..and I hope you both have a wonderful time with your families.
Finally – they really talked. And with what a wonderful outcome! hope they stay strong through all the exibit craziness and their time apart! Looking forward to your next post! have a good week!! Thanks.
