“I will Kit, I promise.”
“You call me if either one of you needs anything, ya got that.”
“Thanks Kit.”

Tina looked around and opted to make coffee and breakfast while she waited for Bette to wake up. She moved around the kitchen aimlessly but managed to make some coffee. She stood staring at the practically empty fridge when she felt Bette’s eyes on her.
Tina turned quickly to look at Bette and through sobs and tears she managed.
“Bette…I am so very sorry. Please forgive me…Please….”
Bette just stared at Tina as if not really trusting what she was seeing and hearing.
“Bette, Baby I got scared, I heard you in that club the second night you were gone and I …I just started to lose my mind bit by bit. Baby, I’m so sorry…Please, can we talk…Can we work this out. Please….”
Bette walked slowly toward the kitchen table and put her head in her hands. After a moment of complete silence Bette barely whispered.
“Tina…it was just so…I don’t know…it just wasn’t us…it wasn’t you…Tina your eyes…Your eyes… they were so …so cold…”
Bette continued to keep her head in her hands and began to sob quietly. Tina approached her slowly, knelt down next to her and placed her hands gently on Bette’s thighs.
“Baby, look at me please…Look at my eyes…Please Bette…because I swear all they hold is my love for you…Baby please.”
Bette’s body tensed and almost recoiled from Tina’s touch. Tina lifted her hand and gently touched Bette’s chin.
“Baby, please look at me…I swear I will never hurt you like that again. Please Bette.”
Bette gasped for air trying to stem the tide of tears and slowly lifted her head and met Tina’s eyes. She saw tears, she saw pain and pleading, and she saw the love…the love that always made her feel safe…
“T…”
With that one simple syllable, Tina let out a gasp and a wail of anguish. She reached up and enveloped Bette into her. Bette received Tina and buried her head in Tina’s shoulder and both women clung to each other as they sobbed and cried a sea of tears.
After several minutes Bette leaned away from Tina and looked into her eyes.
“Tina, you know we have a lot to talk about right.”
Tina nodded and gave Bette a weak smile.
“I know Baby I’m just so relieved that you’re still willing to try and work this out. Baby, I’m so sorry I hurt you…Do you think you can forgive me?”
“T, it’s not about forgiving you…we all make mistakes…it’s just …it took so long to really trust in someone loving me…it just hurt so much…T….I’m just scared.”
Tina kissed Bette ever so gently on the lips.
“Baby, I swear I will never hurt you like that again…I am so sorry…”
Bette gave Tina a weak smile.
“T I think I need to go and take a quick shower…is there any food in the house or should we just go have brunch somewhere?”
Tina looked at Bette with a tilted head and a weary expression.
“Sorry T, I couldn’t resist…I’ll be out in a few minutes.”

I just got caught up on the last few post. Wow, lots of drama! Tina apparently has some issues from her husband cheating on her. She probably didn’t realize she had them because she didn’t love him the way she loves Bette. She needs to talk this out with Bette and get things figured out so that they can trust each other again.
I’m glad they are talking but Tina needs to be totally honest with Bete and listen to Bette’s fears and concerns. PPS
I agree with OneStorm1. Tina may need professional help. I’d be a bit weary. Fantastic update.
yup, insecurities from the past can sure do lots of damage in the present. tina may need professional help as might bette-they both r extremely vulnerable hence the high drama!!! pps
Good thing they´re talking. They can hug and reassure eachother, kiss and make up, but if Tinas doesn´t get some professional help – Btte too for that matter – the ghosts will always be there and will continue to cause problems- Thanks for a great post.
Great Update!!!! I am glad they sre going to talk, but Tina does need to talk to a professional about her trust issue’s. Also B&T should not be living together just now. Thank you PPS
Waoooooo that was tough. Glad they are communicating yet they need to talk more and sort things out. PPVS
This is the same Tina who wouldn’t let Bette “make presumptions” about her character… They’re in a bad place now because Tina’s made presumptions, undeserved ones, about Bette. How they work through this is going to be interesting, but there’s clearly a lack of trust. Thanks for posting, D&A.
Gosh, they really do need to talk. Tinas husbands activities really did do considerable damage in causing her to mistrust Bette when she is away from her. It is hard to trust someone new when you have had that experience over a long period of time. They just might need to seek professional help as well. Because whether they know it or not that mistrust is deep seated. Great update. Thanks for posting .
