Something so right – chapter 98
“Of course – I’ll make it “
“Bette will help you “ Tina said
“I will ? Oh yeah – I will “
Bette stood up and followed Niall out of the living room to a spacious and well fitted out kitchen down a corridor. The kitchen had a view across the valley and Bette could see hills in the distance. Niall moved around the kitchen
“Do you think leaving Tina alone with Gemma was a good idea ? “ he asked only half kidding
“Tina is hurt and angry – you are in more danger than Gemma or Adam “
He switched the kettle on and looked at Bette
“You are going to have to talk her round or she will never speak to me again Bette “
“Give her time “ Bette said “ You cannot expect her to be doing cartwheels about this – its such an enormous shock “
“Not to you though “ he said “ Why did I get the impression back there that you weren’t as shocked as Tina “
Bette blew out her cheeks “ Because I am not. I knew you were with a woman. But then you have had lots of women during your marriage so I figured that it would take you more than just a woman to make you cut the chord. A baby was the obvious reason “
“You didn’t share that with Tina ?”
“It was a hunch – I didn’t want to hurt or upset her “
“Those being my responsibilities “ he said smiling grimly
“You are going to have to be very patient with her “ Bette said “This is her Achilles heel but she is one of the fairest people I know. You need to just let her get her head around this and maybe let her blow a fuse with you now and again “
He sighed “ How is Sarah ?”
“Resigned to the fact that you aren’t coming back – do you think she knows ?”
“No – she might suspect that there is another woman but Adam will be a tough pill to swallow. We always wanted four kids – two sons and two daughters. Sarah miscarried a son about ten years ago “

neil is just a basterd, i brother? i can understand another wife but a kid? i cant fogive a thing like that
What a mess!!! My mama always says that there is no fool like an old fool. Niall has totally wrecked his family’s life and wants everyone else to feel like it’s all great and wonderful. He expects Tina to be happy for him and protect him from Sarah’s wrath. Great Dad, huh? Bette, put Tina on the next plane and get the hell away from the explosion.
Well written. But was hard for me to read. Brought up a lot of memories. Mixed feelings about the whole situation, you know seeking to make yourself happy and the expense of others. My thoughts if a person is unhappy being in a relationship don’t lie your way out. Be honest and just get the hell out. For me being deceived is the more painful part. But than again they were in an open relationship and they both knew that they were taking the chance that the other could fall for someone else. But the situation would be painful non the less. It takes a long long time to be happy for people who make choices that hurt the people you love. That’s a deep hurt that her father inflected on her family.
If I were in Tinas shoes I would most likely react like she did, but from the position as an outsider I totally understand what Niel did. Tell me one reason why he should stay in an unhappy relationship. Yes he could have and should have told his wife and not just go and hide. For me he seams like someone who always choose flight over fight and that is just the way he is.
Glad to see you back with this one and are you ever back with it(lol)! I can see where Tina is hurt,and her father should have told them sooner.So glad that Bette is there with her.PPS
Yes annaluis, they were is an open relationship, but Niall is MORE than old enough to know what “safe sex” is and to wear a rubber. The fact that he actively choice to have unprotected and a child while he was still married and living with his family is MUCH MORE than just cowardous. If he was so unhappy in his marriage, than he should have ended it before starting a family with someone else. Nine months is more than enough time for you to make a move and leave. Another thing that gets me is when he says I didn’t want to be with someone who thought so little of her daughter that she wouldn’t hide her affair with him ” Niall said “I was appalled and ashamed So it is better to sneek around, lie, not confront the elephant is the room, be illresponsable, and disrespect your wife and marriage enough to not even tell her before you tell your children. He has also put his parents in a bad position with their grandchildren. NO Nialls is the DOG here and his feet should be held to the fire. What if his old butt crocks before he updates his will, MESSY. Oh but he has a good lawyer. Okay sugarmama, you love him so much and can support him, have his sign away all rights to the farm. He said he wants a new life, than be a Big Boy and start anew completly. Bette should tell Tina about the miscarriage, because she needs to know the kind of hurt her mother is going to be feeling. PPS
Glad to see you back, Ally! I have much to catch up on. Thanks! :)
That was a tough scene, but beautifully written! PPS
i hate the niall keeps comparing his affair to bette and tina romance… to me they are total opposits… niall is a coward… what happened to his balls… he should of asked and gotton a divirce way before the baby was born… and i hope the other kids all feel the same way as tina… i felt like he kicked the three of them in the ass… and i liked niall… he was a good father… but he is showing his true colors… can’t wait to see what sarah is going to do and say… pps
Hey AllyE, that was termendous. You walked the line perfectly as Bette was the peacemaker. She understood exactly what Tina was going through as her own father, Melvin, had done this to Kit and her mother. Bette was emphathetic to Niall, and Gemma, and especially Adam.This was a moment when relationships can be destroyed forever by harsh and hurtful words.Giving Tina her head while focussing on the present and future was the right thing. Not allowing it to get too snippy was also a good thing.There is much to digest and work through here.The best thing is that Bette is by Tina’s side all of the way. Whatever happens will only strengthen their committment to each other.Ally you always challenge and provoke interesting discussions. Keep up the most excellent service.Many thanks from Your Loayl Fan and Friend.
Oh man! An amazing chapter. Thank you.
What an amazing scene! You wrote it perfectly. Do you have a little L Wing awaiting us?
OH FUCKER!..I’VE MISSED THIS?..I GET LOST NAVIGATING IN THIS SITE?..SORRY? I understand Tina for not wanting to be involved at the moment?..’Cause It’s a shock to her!..imagine your dad who you idolize?..Is nothing BUT A JERK!…WHO WOULD NOT BE?…THANKS ALLY.
When you love someone,protection is not on the top of your list. Accident do happen. Now its uo to the three adult to get this straighten out. The baby is not the problen, Sarah and Niall is. thanks
This is such a mess and drama, poor Tina and glad Bette is there for her!
