After half an hour Bette collected her newspapers and food and went into the gallery. She cursed when she realised that the alarm hadn’t been set properly – at least the building had been locked up -she was grateful for James. Poor James – he was going miss the Bette that Tina brought out in her.
She went up to the gallery and looked around – a couple of pieces had discrete marks on the top left corner – that meant they were sold. Bette had just been reckoning up the night before how much commission that meant for her – it was more than she had made on her opening night of her last three shows – so that boded well for the rest of the exhibition and left her thinking that this was going to be her most successful show yet. But for the first time she would have swapped the success of the exhibition for one word from Tina – the word YES.
Her office was welcoming – she felt comfortable here. She dropped her newspapers and food and grabbing a towel and a change of clothes she went into the shower which was adjacent to her office.
She emerged changed into jeans and a red shirt feeling a little less grubby but still with the sadness in her heart – she had lost her lover and the pain was so real. Could emotional pain really hurt like physical pain ? She was beginning to realise that not only it could but the pain was worse than anything physical she had experienced.
——————————
Tina let herself back into her apartment. It was 5:10am – she had been driving up and down the highway all night. She had given up on Bette’s mobile phone – she had left so many messages the inbox was full up. She was just hoping that maybe Bette would pick up the phone and ring her. Finn was not asleep on his make shift sofa bed – he was sitting up with the TV on watching TV. For once the apartment was tidy – all his stuff was packed away and he had at least washed up whatever plates and cutlery he had used. He looked at her

Please let them talk – or at least make Bette listen – the agony of having to wait for this amazing story. Great chapter – PPS!
HEllo AllyE, The emotional impact of Tina’s decision is really hitting home with both gals. Bette is totally distraught as she thinks Tina has completelly reject her and their life together. Tina is beating herself witha big stick for her stupidity and inability to see what Bette wanted for their future. OK so her parents’ marriage is a sham. It works for them. Now Tee has to find Bette and prove how much a mistake her answer was. It was one full of fear and loathing. I just hope Bette is able to listen and see Tina’s distrust of this type of union. I just know that Ally, your wonderful words will let this all play out in my head. True images of a couple in love yet apart and how silly prejudices can damage a perfect relationship. More please. Much appreciation and thanks for your continuation and variety of tales being told. You rock my world at every new addition to this site. Thanks. Your Loyal Fan.
Please say you are posting again like today! What a cruel place to stop! I’m so hooked:)
feel better ally. this is messed up big time and will take a lot of talking on both parts.:)PPS
I know Bette is hurting, but she gave up too easily. Just because she said no doesn’t mean forever is over. I hope Tina finds her and can talk some sense in to her. Then Bette just has to work on the whole marriage thing. Thanks for posting. I hope you feel better soon.
Alyy, I know you are sick hope you feel better soon. I hope Tina can make Bette listen to her and they are able to work through the problem. Thank you PPVS
” in bed most of the day with a nasty tummy bug” – hope you feel better!
Sorry your’re feeling a little under the weather AllyE, hope you’re better very soon. Oh my, Tina really has her work cut out for her. Bette is hurting so badly hopefully she will be able to let Tina talk with her. Don’t know why Bette hadn’t thought of Tinan’s parents marriage and how much that would color her world. True that her parents marriage is not the ideal but it would make Tina think twice about marriage. Anyway maybe they can get all this straightened out. Great chapter. Get well. Post when you can.

Oh, finally, now im biting nails for how their conversation will be. Tina should justify her decision, so Bette can understand. Wish you well Ally
Thanks for posting even though you feel punk. IC could eff up a wet dream. She is a reverse alchemist…she took gold and turned it into a base metal. Where’s Jobadge’s latest story?? Glad to know that she’s OK.
Poor Bette!! Save them ally …. and soon!! :)
Oh boy…I sure hope Tina can fix this mess. She needs to tell Bette yes…I mean how hard could it be…really, she says she loves her and would do anything for her. Would it kill her to wear Bette’s ring? She should be happy Bette wants to marry and have a ring that says she’s her’s alone to everyone. BTW…your notes were spot on! PPS
Hope you’re feeling better soon. Please tell me you’re going to post the next chapter of this story very soon! I can’ wait to see what happens when Bette and Tina meet up again! PPS
i have never read an authors notes that i have agreed with so wholeheartedly, it is almost as if you read my mind….ilene is the reason we have these characters they we all luv so much, and it has been her gigantic ego that has sabotaged this show after season one and the reason for its cancellation….another great job as usual on your end!!!!!!!!
Feel better soon Ally. What are you talking about…you didn’t think that this chapter was very good…it was great! I couldn’t agree with you more about Ilene’s ego…it’s bigger than all outdoors. It has been the actors that made that show…it wouldn’t have stayed on the air for 2 minutes based on her writing. Funny…I feel better now too that I have ranted!
who’s Fred and what has he got to do with it? why doesn’t Bette have a home to go to? r these things I’ve missed, probably, so plz inform. Great chappie, more.
I am going to be on pins and needles waiting for this update. I have no idea how Bette is really going to react, she may not react at all. Ally pls don’t make us wait too long!!!
Tina’s vowing not to stop, huh? Hopefully, she can convince Bette and not have to keep on like the Energizer bunny… Thanks for the post.
youre not gonna make us wait too long right?? I really cant wait for the next one.. beautiful chappie as always! PPS!! thank you
Ally I’m sorry to hear you’re ill, I hope you feel better soon! And about the story, my little heart is still sad… why did Tina not think about going to the gallery before?? Now I hope that Bette at least gives her a chance to explain. Do you have the next chapter ready yet? :o) xoxo
ally please say you’ll post the next chapter soon – please!! i know bette is hurt but she’s getting ahead of herself. she has to trust in the love they share and listen to tina.
Love the story.. I also agree with you about the dressing of L-word gals. Alice has to be the worst one dressed in the past few years. I wanna see some jeans and sweaters please…
please update soon Ally – I love this story!! I hope Tina finds Bette soon and lets her know how much she really loves her ….. ;o) PPS !
Ally..I sure hope you get to post again very, very soon. Tina better hurry!
Sorry about the bug and thanks for the lack of detail. I’ve got enough problems of my own. Too bad everybody relied on reflex in a difficult situation, Tina seeing marriage only through her perception of her parents’, Bette running like a chicken with it’s head cut off. But Ally, how could you give us a Chapter 69 that only rates a PG? I’ll forgive you because you’re sick.
As you said Ally, this chapter is so great and it is written so well, the way you described the whole experience that Bette is going through was so heart breaking, overwhelming and emotional. It really reminded me of what I had to go through. But Ally I didn’t understand till now why Tina said NO???? She is not so convincing in the way she is explaining why she said what she said. I totally feel for Bette, my heart is breaking for her cause I absolutely understand what she is feeling and going through. Thank you so much All, you are so great and I can’t wait for your next up date, so please make it soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon. Love
Please let Tina find Bette!
