“You know that I have been talking to my mom ?”
Bette nodded
“I owe that to you – I would never have got off my damn high horse if it hadn’t been for you making me pick up the phone “
“You haven’t said much and I have respected that “
“Its going okay – early stages in trying to put our relationship right “
“I know “
Tina looked up into Bette’s dark eyes
“She told me that I should give you what you want – that I should think about marrying you”
Bette looked with some surprise
“A vote of confidence “
“She said that someone as beautiful and kind as you doesn’t come along every day. She made me think that I don’t really realise how lucky I am “
Bette smiled “We are both lucky “
“No – I hit the mega lottery jackpot on the first time I dated a woman. You could have pushed me that first night we met “
“What would the point of that been ? That would have put you off women for life “
Tina kissed Bette’s hand
“I know how charming and persuasive you are – you could have talked me into it “
“I didn’t want to. You know that I was at a point in my life when I was utterly fed up with the whole image of getting any woman that I wanted. I wanted something more – maybe what happened was just fate. I was looking for something and so where you “
“Bette – if we ended this – this relationship “ Tina sighed “ My heart would just be broken in a million pieces. I would be so unhappy and nothing would take the pain away. I have no intention of leaving you – I want to spend my life with you – buying a house, doing the garden together, having children – everything – there is nothing I don’t want to share with you. I wish I could explain why I feel the way I do. I just cannot explain why I feel the way I do about marriage and I know that hurt you – I am so sorry Bette “
“If its wrong for you then its wrong “ Bette sounded wounded

Good for Tina standing up to Alice, but it upsets me that she had to. I admire a loyal friend, but not only is Alice injecting herself into a situation where she does not belong, she was very callous to treat someone who is still recovering from a serious health issue that way. Please don’t make Alice so unlikable.
Hello AllyE. I have finally managed to catch up with your marvelous melodrama. I just adore how Tina talked things through to a point with her mom. They have to communicate first and then start rebuilding their relationship. It was so sweet that Bette and Tina are going to exchange rings. It is really a commitment ceremony as they are pledging to stay together and be there for each other through eternity. A half way house to marriage as it is not legally recognized. Life is so much more enjoyable when these gals are together. Right on the Tee for defending her position and telling Alice to Step-Off. Perfection. MAny thanks for this goregous tale. I just love it all. Your Loyal Fan.
Tina needs to take it easy, with her health… You know, Alice really isn’t that vicious. Yeah, she could make talking an Olympic sport, she’s someone that can’t keep a secret, and butts in a lot, but really, she’s kind and very loyal, and is quite capable of telling people what they need to be told, at times. Tina’s power tripping over the hold she has on Bette is way over the top. What’s she threatening Alice for? Telling Alice to butt out, yes, fair enough. But threatening to get Bette to withdraw her friendship… no. Anyway, Tina’s come up with a really good compromise, re: the rings… Hopefully with that and the house, Bette feels more secure. Thanks for the post.
i think overstepped her the line with tina. it was okay to express her concern but then leave tina to it!! nice compromise at least both are happy and tina needs to take it easy! :)PPS
Now isn’t that the perfect solution? I love how Tina’s prety mind thinks. :)
Well at least Bette is trying to understand…Tina’s idea was perfect! What do we do about Alice??!!
Wow – great chapter! They communicated and came to a compromise – wow imagine that – I wish the show would of been a little more like this. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for these two – can they really keep this open and honest relationship up? I hope so. Can’t wait to read more – PPS
wonderful update, ally! i appreciate Alice’s loyalty but she has to learn when to back off. love feisty Tina but maybe the “power I have over her” comment was a little too much. but then again, we have to remember how poorly Tina is right now (and how stubborn Alice can be! lol) The rings and the house are a perfect compromise at this point.
Finally Tina tells Alice off, Wow Tina is just the best for Bette sweet chptr
So glad that Tina told Alice to “f” off, because she is far too involved in their lives for comfort. Also happy they reached a compromise on the “M” word. And of all people to make sense to Tina about marriage, her mother. I don’t think much of her mother but she does rate an A for this effort. Thanks for posting AllyE. Post when you can.
Alice is out of line but IMO, Bette is lucky to have her as a friend.
Compromise, that’s a good thing. Alice needs to chill out, but I also understand that Bette is her best friend. She wants to make sure that Bette is not hurting. PPS
Lovely update as always. Thank you.
I’m shocked that Bette agreed to returning Tina’s ring. Great that they came to a compromise, but it just seems like Tina is geeting her way. I think Bette is still reeling from Tina being in the hospital, but what happens when Tina is better and Bette starts wanting to marry her again? PPS!
“if the show made sense I changed channels”–so did Tina end up watching the l word all night then? Hehe
yes! tina rulz!!!
Yay!! Finally they came to some sort of a compromise! and I love how Tina put Alice in her place! PPS:)
That was great they talk and work thing out, love it. Please post more, thanks!
It’s GREAT to see this personal growth in Tina. I love how she finally put Alice in her place, talked to her mother, and soften her stance on her rift with Bette. PPS:o).
