    The Fast and Fevered Fall – Chapter Twenty Five

    “No, I’m dreading it. The idea of having to talk about things that I have purposely ran away from. It’s going to be hard and I can only hope that I can cope with it.”

    “I meant what I said yesterday, I’m going to be there for you, through all of this.”

    “I know, and you have no idea how much that means to me, to know that you still think enough of me to take that time.”

    Tina looked back towards the sea to find Angelica building a mound of sand and then a moat around it. She looked so peaceful and happy that it Tina wistful for a time when all that she wanted was Angelica, Bette and her to live happily ever after. If only she had known how complicated that would all turn out to be.

    “You know I remember telling Helena that you turned my life around. I’ve been thinking a lot about that over the last two days. When I told her it was just before Shane’s wedding and at that point I hated the fact that I thought that I’d given up on so much to spend my life with you. Then, over the years, once I’d got some distance from you, and everything that surrounded us I began to remember that the fact that you really did turn my world upside down was the best thing that ever happened to me. Those early years when we couldn’t get enough of each other, I never thought that I would know love like that, and then even when things were going wrong I never would have had Angelica if it hadn’t been for you, and she’s been the most amazing thing that you ever could have given me.”

    “I think it was you that did the giving of Angelica to me.” said Bette, her eyes wandering to watch Angelica get as close to the sea as she could without getting wet.

    “Maybe she just made up for the mess that we made.”

    “You know there are so many things that I would change but I don’t think that I have any regrets, not now. We did what we did and we’ve lived with the consequences of those actions for a long time. It’s not just you that had to do some letting go, and just so you know, you think that I turned your life around? You have no idea what you did to mine.”

    1. Perfect, absolutly perfect. Tina admitting she still has issues to deal with, Bette letting her know that no matter what she’s there. Angelica well she’s a bit of both of them, and apparantly the best part. Hopefully they take it nice and slow and work on becoming the family they should be.

    2. Thanks for posting again so soon. What a wonderful surprise! The expressions you convey in your writing just makes every post a pleasure to read. Thanks so much for writing! (PPS)

    3. Yippee! Tina found her brain! And it’s not completely pickled! The goddess of romance smiles upon us all. And given that, I have to refute Madcapper (sorry, Madcapper) but this sea of love shall cure the girl child. And someday, no doubt, if she is her mothers’ daughter, she’ll get wet. But that’s another story.

    4. Bette is so loveable and sweet in this story, Having Angie all this time has done her a world of good. Maybe between, Angie Helena and Bette they can get the loveable caring Tina back. Angie and Bette needs her. thanks

    5. Beautiful, Tina reuniting with friends and family. I’m so glad she seems to be getting better after all this pain! Love your writing, thank you.

    6. Wow, your Bette is incredible… so calm, warm, forgiving, and loving. No wonder Tina is second-guessing her choices… Bette must have been quite the mother to Angel for her not to carry any blame towards Tina. Angel does take after Bette in that way… Thank you, citygirl… for your beautiful writing.

    7. Sounds like a start to a new beginning (as some form of a family). Now Tina just has to stick with staying sober even if she falls off the wagon a time or two.

    8. Nicely written, very poignant reunion . She’s got a support system all around her, now Tina needs to be able to be strong enough to stay on the wagon. Thanks for posting another chapter so soon.

    9. Holy cow, that was awesome! This story has come full circle and keeps getting better.I don’t think I have come as close to shedding tears as I have on this reunion. Bette is amazing. I don’t think I could be half as understanding as she is! Thank you for this story!PPS

    10. Once again it’s so good I can’t wait for me. I have a feeling Angelica’s need for therapy will come later, those pesky teen years. It’s good to see Tina taking responsibility.

    11. Happy New to C-gal75, I do apologize for lurking lately but now that the festive season is over I am catching up with all these wondrous stories. This is a brilliant example of how connect Bette and Tina are; even when they are apart there is a longing between them. They may choose to ignore it but it will eat away at them until they re-unite. You have really captured the sense that Tina is now ready to take on her demons and defeat them from herself. Then she can look towards bonding with her daughter and re-igniting the flame of her life with Bette. What makes this tale stand out is the level of depth you have givem the past; all those mistakes and missed opportunities have brought them all to this time. I want to see it work. Thank you so much for these magical words. Your Loyal Fan.
