Starting over (47)
Tina buried her head into the pillow and let the tears fall until she fell into a fitful sleep.
_________________________________
Tina looked at the clock. ‘Only 45 more minutes until I leave for the airport’. ‘I can’t believe it’s only been 5 days …it feels like forever.’ ‘Is it really healthy to miss someone so much…I wonder if she even missed me…’
___________________________________________
Tina was staring at the arrival gate and could barely contain herself. She was so excited but she knew she wasn’t herself. She was nervous and couldn’t shake this feeling…this pit in her stomach…that something was wrong.
“Oh God there she is…Oh God …She is so beautiful…”
Tina stared in awe at the love of her life and tried to smile through the tears streaming down her face.
Bette approached her and scooped her up in her arms.
“T…”
Tina melted into Bette’s arms and fell apart. The tears exploded and she held on for dear life.
After several minutes Bette released Tina to look into her eyes.
“T, what’s wrong…?”
Tina looked up at Bette and tried her best to give her a brave smile.
“Can’t a girl miss her girlfriend…I just missed you…Come on, let’s go home.”
Tina took Bette’s hand, reached down and grabbed Bette’s carryon and led her to baggage claim.
Bette gave her a confused smile but wordlessly let Tina lead her.
_________________________________________________
Bette sat at the table looking through some emails from the day but was really eyeing Tina buzzing around the kitchen going in 50 different directions at the same time making dinner. She knew something was wrong but she sensed she’d better tread lightly. She had never seen Tina like this and truthfully she was starting to get a bit nervous…
“So T, how was your week? I feel like we’ve hardly spoken all week.”
Tina stopped what she was doing, turned and glared at Bette.
“Well I suppose that’s my fault.”
Bette was startled by the abrupt response, but composed herself quickly.
“No T, it’s nobody’s fault, we were both just busy and with the 3000 miles and the time difference it was just difficult, ya know? I’ve missed you…”
“Oh really, well you could’ve fooled me.”

WTF was THAT!!!!!!!!! Has Tina totally lost it???? Has Joe’s infidelity taken Tina over the edge??? Like jp22 said, “Bette is NOT Joe”. Bette, baby, I’m available, come home to me. PPS before I stop breathing.
What the hell? Come on now Tina cannot be that blind, she and Bette have been together long enough for her to see how much she loves her. Tina needs to stop acting like an idiot and go to Bette and talk it out before she gets fed up with all the up and down and gives up. I understand she went through a lot of crap with her ex but Bette has given no indication she would behave in kind. Please fix this frustrating situation asap I cn’t stand to see Bete like this.
wrf?! is T’s problem. She is acting crazy. Plz ‘fix’ this. PPS.
Menopause maybe? my mom acts like that sometimes.
What the hell? I can only assume that Joe’s past is coming back to haunt Tina. Is that it? Geez!!!!!! PPS

What the fuck is going on? This came out of nowhere. Please come back, straighten this mess out and update this soon.
Tina’s obviously got more issues about Joe’s cheating than she ever let on. Bette is not Joe. If Tina can’t see that, or can’t trust that, then she’s going to need some help to see it. Whether she lets Bette be the one to help is another thing. Maybe Ellie can talk some sense into her. Thanks for the post, and more soon, please!
Jeez D what the?! I woke up this morning and saw two posts…yipeee! I’ve absolutely missed this story and I’m so glad you’re back. That said…please fix this ASAP!
