Springtime in New York – 5
Tina woke up early, unable to stop the thoughts in her head she couldnt fall back to sleep. She dragged her tired, hungover ass out of bed, pulled on her running gear, drank a tall glass of water, and went for a run in Central Park.
Bette woke up with Jodi’s arm draped over her, she slipped out of bed, got dressed in a pair of jeans and yoga shirt, wrote a note that she was going for a walk and left it on her pillow. Bette found herself on a bench in Central Park, she watched the runners, dog walkers and couples with baby strollers go by. She felt guilty about kissing Tina. Technically she hadn’t cheated on Jodi and lord knows who Jodi could have dirty danced or kissed last night… Bette was having a hard time justifying kissing her ex and even more troubling was the fact that if she was honest with herself she didn’t really regret her actions.
Bette couldn’t contain all the information she had recently learned about Tina. She took her phone out of her pocket and hit the speed dial, not caring that it was 6:00 a.m. in L.A.
Alice heard Bette’s ring tone and reached over to her phone, quietly she answered so as not to wake Tasha.
“Why the fuck didn’t you tell me that Tina dated Helena Peabody.”
Hearing Bette’s histrionic tone, Alice got out of bed and stumbled into the living room and sat down on the couch.
“Dated. Past tense. What would have been the point, Bette? Look how upset you are and they aren’t even together anymore. Jesus, couldn’t this wait until a decent hour?”
“No. Do you know what shit has been going on here? Tina spends her time with a crazy gay baron and a straight girl who wants to have a kid with her, but won’t sleep with her! Tina willingly acts as bait for this women. Helena is lauded as being as sweet as southern iced tea! I thought you and Shane were her friends. Fuck this shit, Alice.”
Alice moved to the kitchen and started a pot of coffee. She was going to need lots of coffee.

Love your story! Great job…please post soon can’t wait for the next chapter….I think Tina’s trying to hide her true feeling for Bette. Why don’t you make her back to theraphy and see things clearer that deep down she loves Bette and always in love with her and follow Bette back to WeHo or make Bette catch the next plane to NY after she reach LA. Tina, you can run but you can’t hide… :)
Great to see an update on this story, Madcapper! When do we say goodbye to Jodie? ;-) I’m glad Tina said no, since Jodie’s still in the picture. Since the door is now open again, I hope they find a way back. Thank you and PPS!
I guess no booty for Bette before she leaves! lol..I hopr Bette finds another way to get back to New york or Tina to get to LA! Still enjoying this story and cant wait for more!
So happy to see this update, just last night I was wondering what happened to the story and here you are. Thanks for posting this chapter. I thought this chapter might end a little differently but I guess it has to go like this in order for them to see each other again. Jodi doesn’t know it but her relationship with Bette is now very much offically over. Bette will not be able to touch Jodi again for thoughts of Tina still ringing in her heart, mind, body and soul where they have just been tamped down, never far away from the surface of her mind. PPS
Wow Girl. Thats a great update. Hope they find the way to each other.!!!
Seems to me that Bette did not try nearly hard enough…she gave up way too soon!!!!!! I hope she suffered the entire way back to LA>>>I hope she even has to make a stop over in Chicago! Thanks for the update…looking forward to the next chapter!!!
Happy dance U posted…now…wow…where did SHE go wrong…maybe the hard out sex attack???!!!!! A little talk, a little get to know U again, maybe lunch, a little courting, flirting….etc. in other words…SEDUCE Tina Bette don’t push her in a corner…and don’t go home to Jodi/LA…make an excuse, go see Peggy, give T time to process with the therapist, send flowers, wine and truffles apologising for the hard out attack…c’mon Bette use your brain not your ? woo her back to you. Tell her if she wants you you will drop Jodi right now by ringing her on your cell in front of her… Lol; and lighten up Tina. NY has made you moody. love your writing Plz post again soon.
Being hoping for this one. Love the update. Please post again real soon
Dancing for joy that you were able to post an update! I am so hoping that real life slows down a bit so you are able to write more frequently. As for the chapter… I have to say that Bette really blew a primetime opportunity. Tina opened up to her (with a little alcohol on board) and told Bette that she is single and still trying to get over her. All she needed was a little more romance… and Bette appeared to be focused solely on her own needs. I was so disappointed that the chapter ended when it did – I wanted Bette to send a text message to Tina acknowledging that she came on too strong… Can’t wait to see where you take the story.
so glad to have your post howver I am with Eastmorn what the hell was Bette thinking – no conversation just make a move – come on this is a woman whose heart was broken by you Bette. Bette is such an idiot.
This is bad and hope they will talk and work thing out. Please post more, thanks!
Tina is affraid because she is still in love with Bette and clearly Bette is still in love with Tina too! PPS
I wondered where this story disappeared. It’s so good that we need more frequent posts. I love this push-and-pull of their relationship. They don’t realize the near perfection that they have. I miss seeing your posts on TWoP. I was banished from there for writing a comment that I didn’t agree w/some of the vitriolic comments on the site but to each her/his own. I think I said it’s a free country. I can’t figure out that site. Some folks write the most ridiculous comments and are so full of themselves but they let them keep posting. It doesn’t make sense. But if you can keep up w/this story it’ll make it all better. :-)
B&T are still in love but i guess it will take longer for them to admit it
Thanks for the update! Will Bette come back to NYC in time to witness the ‘NYC waterfalls’ w/ Tina?… ;-) _ http://newyorkcitywaterfalls.com/waterfalls.html
that scene in the kitchen was all sorts of yum. i didn’t think Bette was so out of line– considering the night before both talking all night in the restaurant and the confessions in the cab and by text… Tina just turns her brains and other things to mush (mine too.) Good thing Tina needs to head to LA soon to see Jenny… :D
Though I do believe Tina is hiding from her feelings from Bette, I am proud of her for saying no to Bette considering the circumstances. If Bette wants to reconnect with Tina she needs to do it without a relationship in the wings. Time for both of them to decide what they really want.
tina’s hiding her feeling and bette is hiding behind jodie… nice update! :)PPS
You don’t even know how happy I was to see this post. I did a little dance for quite a while. I can’t believe Tina let her leave without even talking. : ( I sure hope life calms down for you and you get to post more of this story. Take care.
Oh Madcapper…all this time I’ve been waiting for an update and you leave it on a sad note. Hoefully this means you intend to update soon…yes :) I love this story and you’re writing it so well.
Bette come on, she can not expect that Tina will fall for that, good for Tina.PPS
I love this story every time it comes around. The adventures of B&T in NYC weren’t nearly so Madcap this time, were they? Tina has scruples, Bette doesn’t. It was gratifying to see Tina resist. Bette will have to make some choices and do some work to get her – if she really wants Tina back. Thanks!
That didn’t really go so good. Perhaps they were going too fast, but now there’s that pesky continent in the way. Might the humble reader hope the author take some of her characters’ haste as her own and post more frequently?
Thank you for taking precious time from your life to post this chapter. It means a lot to me to see this story updated. But on the other hand it is heart breaking for both Bette and Tina. They have to make it work out. At least in my world they have to make it work.
please post soon love the story
I love your NY. please continue this one.
I’m so glad you’re back. I hope they find a way back to each other. You’re an awesome writer, btw. Any luck of a WeHo update? =D
Yeah, an update. What’s wrong with Bette, the Bette that we know and love would not have given up so easily. I don’t think she should get on the plane, go back and find Tina.
You can’t imagine how Happy I am to see that you posted again! :) It’s such a wonderful story ! :) Thanks !!!!
Arrrgggggg!!! I’ve just finished reading 5 chapters of this story and there’s no NEXT….Please oh please Madcapper…please return and continue this story…
