Something so right – chapter 92
"Oh that’s just delightful – I so wanted to be a hippy but I doubt your
father would have approved Bette "
"God he would have had a fit " Bette agreed – she took Tina’s hand and
squeezed it "Tell them where you came into the world "
Tina shook her head good naturedly – if embarrassing herself made things
easier for Bette and her mother she was happy to do it
"I was born at the Woodstock festival "
Both Hannah and Elizabeth found this hilarious – Bette winked at Tina.
"So you are a child of Woodstock – that’s so sweet "
"Finn was born at Stonehenge in England and Willow was born in a barn at
our farm "
"Well – you do have an interesting family " Hannah said
"They have their moments " Tina said dryly .
"And do you get on well with them ?" Elizabeth wanted to know
"Yes – a few sticky moments at first but we get on well – they don’t
have a problem with us being gay. They have accepted that we are a
couple and they treat us accordingly "
"Society has changed in so many ways in our life time. I grew up in a
rural area like Tina and if I had turned up with my girlfriend my
parents would have had coronaries "
"When did you come out ?" Bette asked
"As soon as I reached New York when I was 25. I had to get away from
Delaware . I didn’t know that other women felt the things that I did –
it was my shameful secret. "
"I don’t know I would have been able to stay in the closet " Bette said
"It was just who I knew I was "
"Hannah is right – it is easier now. Its easier for your generation and
its easier for our generation. I think I would have come out sooner if I
had been able to. But in my case I was never sober long enough to
actually think that I might be gay. "
"I couldn’t have come out earlier than I did "Tina admitted

awwwwwch bette u have a big problem…
Bette you are sleeping on the couch for the rest of the week. I’m glad Tina got up and went to get some fresh air, or Bette would be removing food from her face. Tornado Tina, I’d hate to be Bette right now. Awesome post.
Houston we have a problem
Oh, yeah-Finn. Whatever happened to him? Maybe Tina should go on Oprah to get this business with her parents off her chest, sort of like Mackenzie Phillips did, although her story was WAY creepier. That, or maybe some therapy, cause Tina hasn’t moved forward even a fraction of an inch.
Yikes….that was kinda a big foot in the mouth moment for Bette. I guess she’s so nervous about being with her mother and her partner that she’s not thinking straight. Please update soon…..I hate to see these two at odds with each other. :(
tina doesnt need to be mad at bette. shes being way to prickly. thx
Ah yes, Jillian Michaels. If only Jillian would carry you to the tub then lovingly bathe you and soothe your aches away…
I know Tina is mad at Bette, but she needs to get over it. I know the truth hurts. Tina needs to get over it and deal with what she is feeling or her and Bette might not have a future. Thanks Ally PPS
We blurt things like this out accidentally sometimes. I hope so a door-slamming evening after Tina forgives her. :o)
something lingers in bette’s subconcious – why else blurt such a sensitive thing at that moment. some things take time to heal & tina isnt there yet – which bette already knows but seemed to forget just then. tina handled that well, considering. interesting talk ahead, thanks ally & post soon :-)
Its always gonna be a sensitive topic, and Bette groveling will be much of a read.
Bette…what the hell were you thinking??? After all she had been through with Tina how could she have just let that fly right out of her mouth like that. Anyway, I agree, she can’t take it back, so grovel, grovel, grovel! Fantastic update Ally, can’t wait until you update again to hear what Bette says to Tina.
ooooooooooooo Bette how do you fix that?
I think B is very aware that her comment was a huge foot in mouth situation & was flummoxed, thus silent, as to what to do (I definitely been there & done that)….but I don’t think either Elizabeth, and especially not Hannah, have built enough of a relationship w/ B to speak “coolly” towards her….while T may be feeling embarrassed cuz of HER issues w/ her parents’ open marriage, I think B felt 1000 times worse at having her proposal publicly rejected – just my humble opinion.
I wonder why Bette is so thick-skinned around this subject when she already knows how sensitive Tina is about her parents open marriage? It seems to me to be so out of character for Bette to not mind her mouth BUT on this particular subject she’s a dunce who should be sent to the corner. She just ruined a perfect evening after T tried so hard to make it perfect for her by dressing right, getting home from work even, saying the right things, being totally and sensitively supportive—I dunno, u r a good writer becuz I feel so irritated with Bette right now that if she was within reach I’d slap her down. Whew!!! I got it out anyway!!!! Thx. Plz post soon.
Hey AllyE, Another wonderfully written chapter for this brilliant story. You expressed the tense nervousness that Bette was feeling. As well as Tina’s attempts to put her girlfriend at ease before the dinner.The meal itself was jittery to start and then started to progress sweetly. Everyone was beginning to relax and open up. Interesting discussions were being debated until Bette blurted out the truth of Tina’s parents’ open marriage. Bette knows that she has hurt Tina in the most unimaginable manner. Hannah and Elizabeth can see these gals are meant to be and quite rightly kicked Bette into touch when Tina left the table. This is now a critical stage of Bette and Tina’s relationship as Bette needs to apologize and make things right. IT has happened so Bette must prove to Tina that she was wrong and is willingly to do whatever it takes to make things right between them again. I can’t wait to read how it all unfolds. The emotive nature of your storytelling brings me dead center to the action and feelings. Much appreciated and intrigued. Your Loyal Fan.
Oh dear! Bette Bette Bette! Great update. Thank you!
Perfect pitch.
Uh oh Bette in trouble and hope she not sleep in the couch or dog’s house lol, but hope Tina will calm down and let Bette apologize and make up to her. Please post more, thanks!
Maybe Bette just needs a little thump to the forehead… not a slap down, just a thump. I’m hoping Bette doesn’t feel the need for an encore and bring up the whole proposal debacle.
