    Author Notes:

    In fact, the smell of Bette surrounded her in this bed.

    “It’s hard to believe that Angelica’s old enough to go to school, and she looks so small compared to some of the other kids.” said Bette, knowing that Angelica was the perfect distraction.

    “I cried the whole day on the first day that she went. Every day before that I think I spent my whole time trying to protect her from the world and then I was sending her out, to make her own way. You’re right though, about the time, it seems to have flown by.”

    “I think she likes it though. She comes back full of tales about what she’s done in class.”

    “She takes after you, before we even know it she’ll be wanting to go to college, convincing us that’s it a good idea to go the other side of the country.”

    “And I’ll let her, and you’ll be annoyed with me for supporting her.” laughed Bette, imagining the conversations that would take place over Angelica’s choice of college.

    “I already know that she’ll get her way. I really must start practicing how to say no to her.”

    “Start practicing now and you might have got it right by the time she’s eighteen.”

    “Why did you split up with Emily?” asked Tina, knowing what Bette was trying to do.

    “My diversion tactic didn’t work for long.”

    “No, but it was a nice try.” smiled Tina, knowing that had caught Bette out.

    “OK, because you asked and because I know you won’t give up until I tell you here’s the reasons why. I think that I have this crazy notion that if I fall in love it should be perfect, that I shouldn’t have any doubts. That I should be able to trust that person with everything that makes me the person I am. The one thing that I didn’t count on was that for that to happen relies less on the other person than it does on me.”

    “I’m not sure I’m following” said Tina, confused by Bette’s reasoning.

    “I think that I want someone who I can trust beyond anything but I don’t give them anything to show that they can gain my trust. It’s hard to earn trust if I don’t open up, even a little bit.”

    “So you’re saying that you held back, waiting for Emily to prove herself worthy of taking something that you weren’t willing to give.”

    4. That was really sad. But Bette was right, they weren’t in a place where they could have even attempted to get back together. It’s just a shame that it took Tina so long to start getting herself together. Once again, good chapter, citygirl.

    7. this is flashback i hope and your comment about happy ending scared me a little…i’m gonna resort to begging: please, please give us happy tibette ending

    8. I have to remember the flashbacks…lol…I love them but I get caught up and I’m like they are talking …yeah…then I realize she still left for 2 years…sigh. Why are you toying with our emotions…not telling you how to write but please have a happy ending in there somewhere. They belong together as a family. They love each other.

    9. So why did Tina take the wrong turn at this point when Bette admitted that she’d never love another like she had Tina and did not rule out a future together for them? This story is enough to drive me to drink.

    11. Hey Citygirl! I’m loving this story. You do a fantastic job of blending the memories with the present. Although i admit it usually takes me a moment to realize which is which LOL. And you’re right if it was anyone but you..i would think…happy ending…but that’s ok…you always do a great job. Can’t wait for more. OH by the way..is this the fic you were telling me about at the convention?

    20. Wow, you draw me in every time. You know it’s bad when Bette is too worried to be pissed off at how self destructive Tina is being and it only got worse for Tina. Love the back and forth, keeping us on the edge of our seats waiting for more.

    21. CityGal, That was tragic as both Bette and Tina realized what their stupidity and self-denial had cost them and those they profess to love. Hopefully this act will be cathartic and let them begin again. Brilliant emotional writing. Thank you for this moving and magnificent melodrama. Your Loyal Fan.
