Bette felt the tears gathering and looked down at her hands to will them away. Seeing her body language in her peripheral vision, Shane immediately put her arm around her friend’s shoulders in a show of support. Angie smiled, grateful that Shane was there to catch her Mama B during what was sure to be a painful event for her despite her earlier reassurances that she was fine.
“It’s okay,” Alice whispered sitting on the other side of Bette and tenderly rubbing her left leg.
The hushed murmur caused Tina to steal a glance to her left to see her friends consoling Bette. She immediately returned her gaze to the woman standing in front of her whose big smile radiated love and giddiness and all the things she just didn’t quite feel at the moment as her concern for Bette grew. I shouldn’t have invited her, she thought to herself. At that moment, Carrie mouthed “I love you,” to her, and Tina could only smile with a nervous chuckle. The minister finished up her introduction while the two brides continued looking at one another.
“If there is anyone who can show just cause as to why these two women cannot lawfully be joined in matrimony, speak now or forever hold your peace.”
Tina visibly tensed and Bette swallowed the deepest inhale as they heard those words. They both felt nauseated.
Bette felt her legs gather the strength she needed to stand, but before she could, she felt a hand on her shoulder.
“Yeah. I think I need to speak my peace.”
Gasps and whispers from the rest of the attendees accompanied all the heads that swiveled toward the voice of the woman who stood from her seat. Carrie and Tina looked toward their audience and Angie couldn’t contain the smirk that threatened to occupy her face.
“Tina, I’ve known you for more than 22 years now. In that time, I’ve never known you to be happier and more passionate and more in love than you ever thought possible unless it was with –“ All eyes were on the speaker. “Unless it was with someone who is not standing next to you right now. I’m sorry, Carrie. I know you’re in love with Tina. And I wish you both nothing but happiness. But Tina, if you aren’t 100% sure right now that this is your fairy tale ending, I know it’s not too late.”

Hi MEL:
Excellent, this is what we need now, thank you, I think someone has to fight for the love of her life.
Yes, it looks like Tina and Bette still have things to talk about.
Thank you for the story and pps.

I loved this story
And Bette would have to say:
“Tina, You came and brought light when everything was dark. You put colors where I only saw black and white. You brought joy to everything that was just sadness. I learned to have that support, your presence here with me. It would be difficult without you.
You changed everything around me for the better, showed that everything can be different, that we just have to believe and hope. That life can smile for us
If you ask me why I want to be with you forever, I will say that it is because you are a unique human being, full of good energies, with a good heart and an unparalleled presence. What you make me feel, I won’t find anywhere.
Everything I want from now on, I want with you. What we experienced was enough for me to realize that we really should be together, that I am right in what I feel, that I need to be by your side
And holding your hands and looking into your eyes, I see myself loving you forever … ”

Hi Meloveslu,
What a wonderful surpise to see you here again!!!
The last Episode broke mine and Bette’s heart in million pieces ????????????.
So thank you for this story!
Hope to see and read more chapters!
Scrolled thru comments (there are so many MUCH braver than I) only to say, I’ll need a few more days to “get a grip” in leu of the free fall from episode 7 of TLWGQ.
Back in a few days to enjoy this story…..
Nice quickie, mel! Well, not in that sense but .. ;-) Did you start writing while watching e7? Thanks a lot for this one.
Though I hope we don’t have to wait for the last second to see Tina get back together with Bette.
Who needs Carrie anyway? She could fall in love with someone else, have problems with having Angie in their lifes, having problems with Bette being near and in their lives – see, already “disposed” of the other woman :-)
I’m ready to read more stories from you.
Since I’m on the west coast, I can view the new shows at 9:00 pm Saturday on the Showtime App. I watched, processed, watched again Sunday morning, and belted our this story while watching football in the early afternoon. It was ready hours before it aired live on the east coast.
I know this is a comment that most won’t want to read, and will hate it if they do, but here it goes. (Please know that this comment does not reflect on the quality of the writing…which is wonderfully good…especially the dialogue…but more on the story line itself.)
When are Bette and Tina going to stop tearing apart other people’s hearts while they figure out their own shit?! It’s 22 years later and they STILL haven’t figured it out??!!! And when they think they have, they always have to do it by plowing through someone else’s life!
Let’s remember that Bette and Tina were together and supposedly happy until Tina FELL IN LOVE with someone else. If she loved Bette so much, why did she leave in the first place? Uh…gee, I’m not happy at this particular moment in my current marriage, so I’m going to use someone else, in this case, Carrie, by saying I’m in love and just run?! Yeah, that will get Bette’s attention and she will show me who much she loves me?!
And, this happening at the ALTER and with Carrie being so understanding…puh! LOL Sorry, I guess I’m just over watching all the lives that have been wrecked for no other reason than they unfortunately fell into Bette and Tina’s disastrous orbit.
I’m sorry, but at this point, with all the hurt they have caused other people, I don’t think they deserve to run off into the sunset together to live happily ever after!!
LOL I guess that hit a nerve. LOL That said, I reserve the right to change my mind about them next week!! :-)
I feel ya, Seahurst. I certainly wouldn’t be happy being left at the alter. This was a bit of a throw back to the Carmen/Shane debacle of season 3, but I absolutely agree that Bette and Tina’s merry go-round always seems to have catastrophic third-party casualties who deserve better (sometimes).
I mean, are they Bette and Tina if they don’t leave a trail of destruction in their wake?
And it seems to me that Tina really hasn’t done much growth and gained independence since her split with Bette. Remember, she said “Carrie asked me to marry her…and I said yes.” That statement tells me a lot. It says that Tina still isn’t making her own decisions but, rather, is being led to having them made for her. She didn’t say “WE are getting married.” That has stuck with me for some reason.
I don’t think she’s as in love with this new woman as Bette believes her to be. If she were, she would be laying down some solid boundaries with respect to Bette’s physical closeness like prolonged hugging and hand-holding in public. Also, she was the first to engage that physical closeness when she grabbed Bette’s arm in 106 and told her she was doing a great job Re Angie. She does want Bette’s attention. She wants Bette to fight for her. She wants that grand gesture of stolen metal signs that proves to Tina how much she is really wanted.
It’s exhausting, really.
But I love them, Seahurst. I love them. ????
LOL We all do, even when I can’t stand them I love them! LOL
Nice story….but I see this as a part of Season 2. Personally, I would think that Angie will not want to be a participant in Tina’s wedding. I see Angie being very troubled by her Mama T and Carrie’s relationship. I see Angie and Jordi to perform some kind of “Parent Trap” antics with Carrie and Tina to make her life miserable. I do not expect Angie to accept Carrie in Tina’s life without causing trouble. I see Angie enlisting Jordi’s help to cause mischief and misery for Carrie every chance she gets.
