“She slit her wrists Al.” Kit answered her in a matter-of-fact tone. She realised that it was a cruel, but there wasn’t a way to soften the blow. How do you tell anyone someone you loved attempted suicide. Attempted, and might yet still succeed.
Alice fell back, straight onto her butt, her legs giving out no longer allowing her the luxury of being seated. “Fuck,” she whispered, definitely not expecting that in the least. “Please, is she okay?” The blonde begged, tears springing to her eyes.
Helena smiled, slightly. “She’s alive. Right now,” Helena continued, her cheat and stomach hurting from the knowledge she had, from having to share it. “She is. But they don’t know if she will.” The words suck in Helena throat and she sprang from the seat looking for the restroom.
Alice diverted her attention to Kit who was sitting, stoically. Something that the emotional Kit could never have been accused of before this day. The moment. It was all Bette, but not Kit. “She suffered a stage IV haemorrhage,” Kit started to explain with an almost clinical air about it. “It means she lost over 40% of her blood volume.” Kit was stopped by a sharp pain in her chest. She held her chest with a shaking hand. “They’ve almost lost her countless times, but they had to take her into surgery anyway.” She was proud of herself, getting it out without cracking. She didn’t know if she could do it again. Didn’t even know if she could stand up if she had too.
“Is she going to okay?” Asked Alice softly, needing some reassurance before she could even think of passing some one.
Kit nodded her head down, attention drawn to her fiddling fingers. “They think she might be, but they want to put her into psychiatric care.” Kit explained, “We have a meeting in the morning with the person who has been assigned Bette’s case. The psychiatrist wants to know what triggered the attempt.”
Wants to know if we are to blame, Alice thinks quickly.
“Can we see her?” She asked, feeling herself grow very impatient. She needed to see and touch her, to reassure herself that she was alive. Otherwise…. otherwise. The alternative was too painful to think about, but the only thing the women who love Bette Porter could.

I hope Bette is OK an gets help..from doctors and Tina. pps
Another great chapter…PPS.
I’m hoping that they will let Tina see Bette very soon. I feel like Tina didn’t know what was going on with Bette, She was part of Bette peoblen,but Bette had a big hand in it. Now is not the time to point fingers. Just get Bette in goodhealth and sound mind. thanks This was still sad.Poor shane.
Even re-written, still very sad. Hope Kit will let Tina come and see Bette and stay with her, she and Angie, for awhile, needs to be with Bette. Bette needs to know that Tina does still love her no matter how hard she has tried not to do so. This is not really Tina’s fault but Bette’s slone. Bette has real mental problems due to her own and Tina’s actions. But Bette is the reason that she tried to take her own life, no one else can be blamed wholly. Tina can be blamed partially but it was Bette’s decision to take her life. Now Tina can also be part of the reason for Bette’s healing, if Kit will let her. Hopefully Helena can sway Kit to let Tina bring the baby and for both to see Bette. Thanks for posting. PPS
Well,that would be a big no I’m not, since Tina is still punishing Bette for her mistake six years ago, stopped the adoption, said that Bette wouldn’t miss Angie or didn’t even love her, ,and took Angie away from Bette completely, putely out of spite. Nothing Bette did would ever justify Tina’s taking their child. Bette had no idea if she would ever see Angie again. this isn’t “oops, my bad” stuff.What about this behavior is admirable or “fan” worthy?
Just re-read this one. It’s still as painful as the first post. I’m still holding out that Bette’s going to pull through. I’m also hoping that Tina will see her ASAP and not leave her side. She is finally putting all the pieces together and getting the picture of Bette’s state of mind. She has to be there to help bring Bette back from the bottom….especially since she played a part in putting her there. IMHO. :) PPS – this has been away for too long. :)
Hello there, sweet Deean! Now we understand why you wanted to edit this chappy. As an artist places the brushes of details on a canvas, that what you did with this part. Perhaps it was important to emphasize certain attitudes on the characters, so we may see where they stand at this particular time. Our grasp of the overall situation, is that everyone is feeling guilty, for not anticipating Bette’s suicide attempt. However, no one could prevent that from happening. Bette was already merged in her own darkness. We believe that the next step is for them to talk to the psychiatrist first. There are some professional hints that all of them need to learn, in order to provide the required help, Tina included. We do not think that the presence of Angie at the hospital will be wise. The innocent little girl will not understand the critical condition in which her mom B is. We shall wait for your next update, to see where you are leading us. Thanks for making your Authors’cut on this chappy. PPS Hugs & kisses on both your cheeks. – Lucero & Marsha (Proud Salsa Aunties to the ever loving JC and Eunichick)
still awesome update!! the gang can’t blame tine for this at all. bette needs to take responsiblity… i hope tina will be able to see bette while in recovery.:)PPS
not a fan of Tina, Caliegh? : )
I need the next chapter NOW!
I find it interesting that even though Bette had been spiraling down since Tina left, she didn’t commit this drastic act until Tina reappeared. this tells me that seeing Tina is causing her pain and Bette needs to stay far away from her until she is in a healthier place. This is a Bette story, it does NOT have to involve Tina, and it’s okay to say that Tina is not what Bette needs. She has hurt Bette and needs to stay away. I guess Tina could do anything imaginable to Bette and would get a pass.
