Alice just kind-of stood off in the corner away from Tina and Bette. She knew that this was not going to be good”not at all.

Bette, you dont mean that! Tina couldnt believe the words she had heard Bette say. She had never felt so empty. She knew her life would be nothing without her. She needed Bette. She knew she was a fool for sleeping with Alice and an even bigger one for having an affair with her. She let curiosity get the best of her. Bette worked a lot and she had let a few times of loneliness get the best of her when she should have just went to her wife with her concerns and feelings.

Yes I do Tina. Come on. You cheated on me. Did you honestly think that I would just take you back? Youcheatedonme. Bette’s voice kept getting higher and higher. Her emotions were getting to her. The intense pain was just too much to handle.

And Im so sorry baby. Please, please, Im begging you, please give me another chance. Give me the chance to make it up to you. I promise to make it up to you until the day that I die! Tina was a sobbing mess. She couldnt lose the one thing that she lived for everyday, the one thing that gave her a reason to get out of bed in the morning.

Your promises mean nothing to me anymore. You once promised me that you would always be faithful to me, but you broke that promise, not once, but several times. How the ***** is this time going to be any different? Bette was screaming at Tina now. She turned and left Tina standing there.

Because I cant live without you. Tina screamed back but Bette kept going. She never looked back.

Tina turned around and looked at Alice. Alice just stared at Tina expressionless. Oh my god Alice, what am I going to do? Tina walked to Alice, expecting a comforting embrace. Instead, Alice took a step back. She couldnt be there for Tina. She knew Tina would just push her away when it came time for Tina to fight like ***** for Bette. She didnt want to be hurt by Tina again. During the affair, Alice had developed feelings for the blonde. And Alice knew deep down that she couldnt compete with Bette Porter in Tinas heart.

Tina looked up at Alice, a little hurt. She was surprised that Alice of all people would pull away from her. Whats wrong Al?

You dont want anything to do with me remember? You got yourself into this mess; you can get yourself out of it. Im not helping you”no way in ***** am I helping you. Just stay away from me. With that Alice stormed off to her bedroom and slammed the door.

Tina was stunned. She thought that shed be able to depend on Alice. That Alice would give her some advice on how to get Bette back. Now, she was all alone, nowhere to go, and completely broken-hearted. She lost the love of her life and her two best friends all in one dayon her seven-year anniversary with her wife. When she lost her wife, she lost her everything.

Slowly Tina turned and left. She quietly shut the front door behind her.

Tina got into her car and sighed. She didnt want to go to Kits or Shanes. She would have to tell them why she wasnt home celebrating with her wife. After she told them everything they would kick her out and turn against both Alice and herself.

She knew that she may not be wanted or welcomed there, but she had nowhere to go. She had to go home, her broken home, the one she had broken.

Tina took the long way home. Giving Bette some time to calm down and maybe get to sleep.

When Tina finally reached the house, the first thing she notices was that Bettes car wasn’t in the driveway.

Where the ***** is she?
