Something so right – chapter 92
you are Bette and I don’t imagine Melvin played much of a part – I
would say that just leaves you Tina dearest"
"Bette’s responsible for who she is – I might have contributed but she’s
who she is "
"Well you two are obviously proof that two women can live together
without dramas and complications "
"We are not perfect " Tina said " We both work hard and we are friends
above anything and everything else. She’s my best friend as well as my
soul mate"
Hannah looked at Elizabeth and nodded " Its good to see two women as
happy as we are. Our gay friends all have such complicated lives – they
regard us a freaks for just living a simple and happy life "
Bette laughed " My friend Alice thinks that about us"
"Do the two of you have any plans to get married and have children ?"
Hannah asked
Bette smiled " We have no immediate plans but long term I know that we
would both like a family. Neither of us have had the most conventional
upbringing so what we would both want is normality "
"Would you say that your upbringing was unconventional Tina growing up
on a farm with two parents and a brother and sister sounds like the
epitome of the American Dream " Elizabeth said brightly
"Tina’s parents have an open marriage " Bette said
There was an awkward silence – Tina felt herself go red. The whole thing
was something that she was deeply embarrassed by and to have it blurted
out by Bette like that was even worse.
Hannah became fascinated with her napkin ring – examining it closely.
Elizabeth just looked embarrassed for Tina and was looking at Tina
hoping to catch her eye. Bette knew she had put her foot right in it and
looked away from the table.
"I’m sorry Tina " Elizabeth said
Tina knew that whatever she said right now would ruin the whole evening
-she sat perfectly still looking down at the table praying for the
waiter in this high class place to show up with the food so the others
might stop feeling so sorry for her having being brought up by two hippy
parents who slept around. Tina wanted to hit out but despite her anger
she loved Bette and tried her hardest not to hurt her – it was an
internal battle for her

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.
