Helena tapped on the door of Angie’s room
“Yes “
Helena opened the door enough to pop her head inside
“Hello pumpkin”
“Oh God – Helena!! “
Angie leapt off her bed and jumped across to the door and dragged Helena inside
“Shane and I have come over because of what has happened with your moms “
“Oh Helena “
Angie burst into tears – Helena pulled her into an embrace and hugged her tight
“Its okay -cry all you want “
For several minutes Angie cried and Helena hugged her. Angie finally stopped crying and looked at Helena
“Its awful Helena – I have never seen mom like this “
“Let’s sit down “
Angie sat on her bed and Helena sat next to her and put an arm around her
“This is hard for all of you – and this is hard for you “
“I couldn’t leave her “
“Did you want to ?”
“No – I am going to miss momma T but I want to be with mom B – is that the right thing Helena?”
“You are wise enough and mature enough to make up your own mind. They have brought you up and not sheltered you as much as they could have – you knew the full horror about Kit “
“I do – don’t tell either of them but I do have some memories of what happened to Jenny – they are really fuzzy but I remember stuff when they I hear them talk about her “
Helena was not shocked by this – she pulled Angie closer “I think Jenny is a conversation for another time. How do you feel about Tina ?”
“I am angry – why has she gone and spoilt everything. We were happy – they were both happy and now B is crying all the time and I am scared “
“Neither of them will ever do anything to hurt you “
“They had a screaming fight about me – T said some awful things “
“It will be hard for her – she has left Bette and you – that has to hurt “
“She shouldn’t have gone “
“She felt she had to “
“Have you spoken to her?”
“Shane has – I have messaged her but she obviously doesn’t want to talk to me “
“What did she say to Shane ?”
“I don’t know – Shane is downstairs with Alice and your mom – we are ordering Chinese by the way so you should come down and eat – are you hungry ?”
“Alice has been cooking “
“You are hungry “ Helena concluded and they both laughed
“I wanted to come and see you because as messed u p as this is and as scared and confused you are – you aren’t on your own. When I was 11 my parents split up and it was hard and I had no one to talk to – you are not going to have no one who has been through what you are going through. I am here now and anytime you want to talk to me when I go back to England you are going to call me or skype me or anything.”
“Thanks “Angie’s voice was small “I don’t know what is going to happen “
Helena sighed “This has brought up a lot of ghosts for me thinking about what you are going through. They aren’t going to get back together so don’t try and play cupid and there is no blame on you what so ever. It is strictly between Bette and Tina why they have split up. For a long time, I blamed myself -my parents never agreed on anything to do with me and I shamelessly played on that “
Angie sniffed back tears “I do that “
“All kids do “Helena said squeezing Angie’s shoulder “but they both love you – never for a second think anything else “
“Momma T doesn’t love B anymore”
“So I gather “
“Mom B needs me Helena – I don’t think momma T does “
“Tina will be missing you like crazy “
“I want to stay here “
“Its been a horrible shock for you and Bette – you both need to slowly get used to this. It will take some time for this to be your normal “
“Is mom B going to be alright ?”
Helena didn’t believe in lying to kids – they always knew.
“It is hard for her – it was so unexpected and it hurts. When I have had my heart broken by a woman which has happened so many times – well it feels like the worst pain ever. You don’t think you will ever find happiness again. You resign yourself to always being alone and vow to become a nun “
Angie snorted which made Helena laugh
“Any reason for that snort young lady? “
“You are not a nun “
Helena chuckled “No I most certainly am not. But when the pain is so immediate and you never think you will get over THAT woman”
“And do you?”
“Yes – but none of my relationships have lasted as long as your moms have. They have been through so much and always found their way back “
“And could they do it again?”
Helena sniffed “Yes – nothing is impossible but if Tina doesn’t love Bette – would you want her to come back if she was miserable?”
“No – I want mom B to be happy”
“We all do sweetie “
Angie snuggled close to Helena who pulled her close. Helena knew that this would still haunt Angie for years – it had with her – she hadn’t been able to talk to anyone about her feelings and that had made her push them deeper down inside of herself. Another victim of Tina losing her mind.

Yeah, yeah. lets all blame Tina. When Bette cheated – lets understand and forgive, and even find some excuse for her, like someone tried after s1 TLW – how she was miserable and not got any attention from Tina (hmm, forget that Tina just have miscarriage, yeah). And mostly they forgot how Bette sometime treat with Tina like a servant, how she dismissed her in front of her father, how even before miscarriage she asked herself – if she fallen out love with Tina.
Yeah, Bette we all can forgive.
But when Tina left her in s3 – she’s traitor, not excuse. Lets even in fanfic paired Bette with someone else, they all better for her, that this traitor.
Hi allyemmerson,
Good to see you back!
My heart broke to ???????????? when i read in previews that Tina left Bette and broke again reading this short story. I don’t know if this was a one time story, but i must admit that i will only read Tibette stories with a happy Tibette ending.
Happy Boxing Day!
You always were brave in your writing, and you continue to be by writing from a point of view you knew wouldn’t be popular. And, you did such a great job! Thanks Ally…and it’s so great to have you writing L Word fanfic again! :-)
Now, since we did challenge each other, I guess it’s my turn. Yikes! :-)
Hola Ally que bueno que estés de vuelta pero quiero historias de tibette juntas y con finales
felices esta historia me dejo muy triste
This is a well written story…..I am one who believes that breakups are seldom sudden and seldom because someone fell in love with someone else instantaneously and then decided to to leave. It may seem that way to begin with in the first few days or weeks. But when a real examination of the history of the couple is taken, there will always be signs of discord or inattentiveness or the avoidance of the other in the couple. How can Tina say that she was miserable with Bette and not show some signs of being miserable? Happiness which is not real can only be faked but for a short period of time. Then most people do the run, hide and avoidance mode or the argue and antagonism modes. And most of these signs are apparent long before an affair takes place.
When Bette says we were talking and giving each other time. My question would be what was the depth of your conversations? Did both of you really hear and understand the feelings and emotions which were the support structure of the relationships. If every conversation was about how terrible work is and horrible some person was treating you at work, that may be talking, but its not communicating.
Another author of this stories said once that in a relationship it’s always harder to be present, to commit and to stand and fight for a relationship. Running and seeking alternatives is always an easier solution. And to sustain any relationship, it takes both parties to want the relationship and to work at it or it is doomed to failure. In this story, if Tina has decided that she no longer wants the relationship with Bette then there is no chance for reconciliation. The only reason they were able to come back together in the past was because they both wanted their relationship and they were willing to make changes in their behaviors to make that happen. But if Tina has decided that the relationship with Bette cost more than the benefits she receives or she’s tired of making an effort or she simply would rather have someone else, then there is no hope. That is why the divorce rate is 50% in the US and higher than that in the United Kingdom. It’s easier to give up than to stay and fight.
We really know little about what has happened here with Tina and Bette. We know little of what really has been going on for the previous months and years in their relationship. I do not think we have near enough information to affix blame one way or another. Yes, having an affair is detrimental to a relationship, but usually it reflects a failure on both parties to deal with each other as to the other problems going on in the relationship in an honest and forthright manner as problems, hurts and fears arise.
So great to read another story from you. This was definitely a sad one. I hope to see more stories from you in the future. Still have my fingers crossed you will finish the L wing.
Great to see that you are back, Ally! But I have to admit that I didn’t read your comeback story. I simply can’t bare to read any story with either Tina or Bette cheating on the other (or falling out of love) without a chance of reconsiliation.
I sure though that I’m not the only one who would be excited if you’d pick up writing Tibette stories again. Well, stories without the cheating or final separation part ;-)
Hi Ally,
Great to read a story by you again despite the reasons.
Not happy that Tibette split in the new Show and will remain reading their stories on this Site.
Happy New Year, off to read Seahurst.
BTW would always like to read an L Wing continuance:-)
SG
