Soul Mates – Chapter 9
"That I wasn’t good enough for you . ."
Her voice was so low, it took Tina a few seconds for it to register. She saw the pained expression and genuine fear in Bette’s eyes and an immediate desire to comfort the beautiful brunette consumed her.
"Oh, Bette . ."
Tina watched the way Bette’s lips trembled, carefully walking up to the shaky brunette and lifting her hand to catch a stray tear before it made is way down Bette’s cheek. She continued to stroke the soft mocha cheek and Bette sighed at the contact. Tina gently turned Bette’s head so that she could peer deep into those chocolate brown orbs.
Bette’s eyes were still focused on the wooden planks of the deck but Tina waited until the brunette lifted her eyes. After several seconds she did, her eyes glazed over from tears that were threatening to spill over.
"You were always good enough for me" Tina whispered and tears began to fall freely down Bette’s cheeks, "I hate that you can’t see that but it still doesn’t change the truth . . if anythin’ . . I didn’t feel like I was deservin’ of you"
Bette’s eyebrows knitted together in confusion, "What?"
Tina wiped away the tears that had slid down Bette’s cheeks, "You’ve done more for me than anyone else ever has. You make me feel safe and loved . . . a happiness that no one could ever compete with. I always felt lucky to have you in my life and how do I repay you? . . . I didn’t even comfort you when we lost our baby . . and I left Bette . . I left you when I promised that I-"
"Stop" Bette brought both hands to cup Tina’s cheeks and silenced the now crying blonde, "Don’t talk like that, ya hear me?"
Tina swallowed hard and looked deep into Bette’s eyes with a slight nod.
"We’re passed that, we were both to blame but we can’t undo what happened. We can fix what’s happening now though . . and T . . I’m so sorry for makin’ you leave when your mom called. I should have fought for you"

Thanks for the post. Love how this story is going. Happy Easter!
Wonderful Story! Loved that when things are meant to be, it’s best just to go with the flow. I love that they’ve reached the moment of truth in knowing what they need to do to create their future together. Uh huh!
I love this update! Thanks Liah! :-) and happy Easter too! I hope your health is getting better and better ;-) anyway, I wonder what crisis is there which keeping them away for now!? And the way you wrote on how Alice keep interrupting is kinda cute yet annoying :-p lol so looking forward to your next update! Oya, if Peggy is having that huge power over Tina’s show/career, I do hope it won’t be nasty once Peggy find out about Tina and Helena :-( well… Pining for the update now..
Progress! They have more to talk about but it’s a start. The Peabody women are coming to town, though. Things may get a bit tense, but Bette still has most of two days to reconnect with Tina. Hopefully, no jealousy over Tina’s recent past comes to the fore and everything goes smoothly and Helena just buggers back off to New York… but where’s the fun in that? >:D Glad you’re back, thanks for the post! :)
so lovely and funny i like it thanks for the update!!!
Wonderful update. So happy they now know how each other feels and that they want their marriage to work. Hope Peggy will be nice to Tina and helena just needs to mind her own business and understands that Tina wants Bette and vice versa. But knowing helena she will probably make a play for Tina and I hope the hell someone shuts her down. And I hope Tina’s mother keeps her damned nose out of Tina’s business where it concerns her marriage to Bette. Thanks for posting. PPS
Yay! A happy chapter! :-)
Oh the sweet torture! Thanks Liah I’m loving this story!

Tomorrow’s Easter…and the only rising from the so-called dead I want to read about is the rekindling of fire that has never gone out on our B&T! (better than an infinite supply of chocolate bunnies! What I mean is – I’d take a post over chocolate!!! ANY DAY!!!!
