The Call – Part Three
T.. Bette said quietly. Her hand reached up and felt for Tinas hair and, without thinking, she took a strand and looped it behind her ear. I.wewere not twenty anymore..and .. Bette faltered I love you just as muchmore she corrected herself but just not that way anymore
Bette laid still; she felt she hadnt said that right; it didnt express how much she loved her wife, how deep that love went, that it was there but just different. That today was an exception not a promise for the future. How sorry she was that shed not been able to keep that euphoria alive once their lives intruded.
I know Tina said, shed felt the same way It was fun to pretend though wasnt it?
Ummhmm said Bette relieved Tinad understood the true meaning behind her inadequate words Did I let you down?
Never said Tina quietly, it wasnt the truth but it was what she felt in that moment.
Thats not true Bette said in a moment of honesty. She felt for Tinas hand again and brought it to her lips, kissed it. I know I still let you down..I dont mean to..I just do
We both do.. Tina sighed Its sad isnt it? That we get so caught up in our lives we forget sometimes to tell the people we love just how much we love them.
Bette took the opening created by Tinas words I know how much you love me..I feel it all the time..but do YOU know how much I love you?
Yes said Tina I feel it here and she took Bettes hand and placed it over her heart.
Bette relaxed a little All the grand gestures, the romantic dinners, the trips away..you dont need them do you? Bette said, as something shed always known crystallized in her mind.
No.. Tina smiled but theyre fun ..and theyre part of who you aremake you the person I love..
Should I stop them? Bette asked her, wondering whether she could stop loving her wife this way.
God no Tina responded.
Bette smiled, she could hear in the vehemence of the words how appreciated the gestures were even if they werent needed. She lay still for a moment longer Tabout today..it was fun wasnt it..

really lovely story filled with passion and romance really nicely done thanks
Just catching up…these first three chapters are absolutely lovely. I was so happy to see your name again! Thank you!!
Such a tender phase in their life. You describe it so well.
Hi, Oz. Just wanted to let you know you have a new fan…me! I read this story then was compelled to read “Love Me Tender.” I love the way you write–your stories are beautiful, heartfelt and depict life with such realism without having to resort to excessive angs-ridden drama to capture tension and drama. I eagerly awaiting to read “Listen to your heart.” Having read a glimpse with “The call,” I know I won’t be disappointed. Please post that story soon! Thanks :)
Sorry, my touchpad acted up on me before I could correct myself: angst-riddled, not angst-ridden.
wonderful…good for Bette to realize that the slow constant beat is comforting not ‘boring’ — very, very well expressed…wonderful chapter….thanks
Thanks so much for two updates!!!! This story is one of my favorites………More really, really soon
That was incredibly beautiful and wonderful.
“But its always there, you just need to stop sometimes and focus on it, to hear its slow constant beat, to feel the comfort of itâ€. — Wonderful!
I love how this Tina recognizes the need to help Bette express what she’s feeling.
This story is so beautifully expressed. Thank you and more please.
Beautifully written. The way you wrote about how love revolves from the courting stages till their current relationship really touched me.
Thanks Oz…:)
Man love this story and love reading it. This is so emotion and beautiful, love Bette and Tina in this way and how they show their way love to each other. Please post soon, thank you!
