    Author Notes:

    If I’m honest, nervous as hell.

    “I’ve been looking for you.” whispered Bette, straight into Tina’s ear.

    “I thought that you might be busy.” replied Tina, still staring at the champagne.

    “Are you alright? You seem upset about something?”

    “No, I’m OK, I just….the champagne Bette. I so wanted to pick up a glass and drink it.” replied Tina, tears of frustration forming in the corner of her eyes.

    “Come with me, we can talk in my office.” said Bette, gripping hold of Tina’s hand and leading her away from temptation.

    Tina followed willingly, grateful that Bette had come along when she was about to crack. She silently wondered whether this would always be the case. Whether when faced with alcohol she would always feel that overwhelming temptation to give in and take a sip, but she knew that once started it would never stop at one sip.

    Bette opened the door of her office and waited so that Tina could step inside. Bette watched as Tina looked around, first at the paintings that she had on the wall and then to her desk. Tina picked up the photo of Angelica that Bette had sitting on her desk, smiling at how beautiful Angelica was. Tina looked up to notice that Bette was still studying her.

    “I’m sorry, I just wanted to take a look around. I should have asked first.”

    “It’s fine. Do you like the picture? I took it last year in Shane’s backyard. Don’t you think that she beautiful?”

    “I love it. I’d really like a copy, the way that the sun catches her eye, it really does make her look like an angel.”

    “How are you feeling now?” asked Bette, moving to the small refrigerator to extract two bottles of water.

    “Better than I did five minutes ago.” smiled Tina, taking the bottle that was offered to her.

    “That was hard for you, to see that champagne lined up like that?”

    “Harder than I can put into words.”

    “Try me.” persisted Bette, wanting to know how Tina really felt.

    Tina looked back at Bette, thinking that this wasn’t the right time to get into this. They were at the opening of Bette’s new exhibition and all she wanted to do was to talk to Tina about the problems that she was having controlling her addiction to alcohol.

    1. That was like… I’m speechless. I really didn’t expect that to happen so soon, for them to try starting again. That was so tenderly done, and really so well-written… I’m just like, really pleased, sitting here with this little goofy smile on my face. So yeah, I’ll shut up now and just wrap up by saying that was a great chapter, citygirl.

    2. So well written and so sensitive to the subject. Bette is right: one day at a time. Sometimes one minute at a time. Thanks this story–it’s a tough subject to write about. Lin

    3. You could end it there and I’d be happy, knowing that they were going to try, really try….now pls don’t burst my bubble and throw something different at me…..Please!!!

    4. Absolutely Stunning! I totally loved it! Do you read stories sometimes and wish you had written a certain sentence from it – I do and I did – “Just wanting to revel in the silence that this moment was bringing her after the noise of her loneliness…”

    9. I so agree with Jobadge. That was the one sentence that leapt from the page and made me say “damn, that was good”. I did wish I had written it but then again I’d have to write a story. And I don’t see that happening anytime soon. So I’ll just plagiarize. ;-)Keep’em coming. It’s wonderful.

    11. So nice the way you’ve woven past and present together to bring us to this point and some hope for the future after dredging us through a cesspool of a past. Well that, may be a bit harsh towards the bartender, she seemed OK, but you know what I mean. So are we just going forward from here?

    18. As always, this and the previous chapter has been marvolous. I thought this was the story we talked about. I eagerly await more from you. You always seem to leave me on the edge of my seat! Good job.

    19. Thanks for posting City…Bette has such a beautiful heart. She is showing Tina that she is there for her…that even though this is technically her night…she is there for her woman. You captured this so well. I am sure they are still gonna take it slow…but at least they know they are both going slow in the right direction.

    22. IM STUNN! this was !!! im speechless.. om glad tina telling bette about the things going on and bette listeing and putting her family 1st.p.p.s. great job

    23. Damn awesome, that was beautiful and love it. This is what we waiting for and happy that they are back together again and can’t wait to see more. Post soon please, thanks!

    24. CityGirl, That was brilliant. I loved the attitude of all the gals in their desire to protect Bette and Tina while trying to softly push them together again. Helena was a star; supporting Tina yst pushing her towards recovery. Kit just said it like it is and gave Tina some much needed advice as how Bette was reacting to this recent reunion. Finally Bette demonstrated how much she had changed her priorities and was now just there for Tina even though other previously mire pressing engagements were occurring stimultaneously in the gallery. Bette’s gift was the perfect final note is wiping the slate clean and also looking towards writing a future together. Adorable and hopeful. Thank you for putting a smile on my face for the rest of the day. Now if only Season 4 could do the same. Yes, I do live in hope. Much gratitude for this delightful and inspirational story. You are a talented and skilled writer. Your Loyal Fan.

    25. Holy fricken crap, that was amazing!I truly believe that was the best chappy yet.I pretty much had tears of joy!You could feel their emotions.Well done City. I guess I needed to be patient, cause things are definatly moving foreward! PPS
