    Author Notes:

    As she approached the office door of the woman she came to see, Tina heard a familiar voice behind her.

    Tina smiled at her friend. Was it true? Was the old Bette returning? The one who made Tina her first priority over and above everything else? Was that the Bette, Tina had observed slowly re-emerging from the shadows.

    After Tina had lost the baby, Bette had retreated back into herself, choosing to hide away from even Tina. Not that Tina had been there emotionally to support Bette anyway, because she was dealing with her own inner demons at the time. She had essentially shut Bette out from her thoughts and feelings as well. They certainly had created a big mess between the two of them, and the demise of their relationship may have been the catalyst to finally get them to see what was truly important in life. Having that one special person to share it with, who accepted you as you were, didn’t try to change you to be something or someone else. Relationships take a lot of hard work, and sometimes as they lose their sense of newness and excitement. It takes work from both sides to keep communicating and growing together as each individual changes with time. Bette and Tina had not bothered to grow together as a couple as the individual changes occurred to each of them. They had stopped communicating with each other, and it unfortunately had taken the complete demise of their relationship to make them realize what they had to begin with.

     

    Tina looked at Shane, and shook her head, thinking that Yoda really did know them better than anyone else. “Shane, can I ask you a question?”

    “Sure T.”

    “Do you think that Bette and I can make it this time? After all we have been through, after everything we have done to each other, all the hurt, all the pain we both caused. Do you really think we can move past all of that and make it work?”

    Shane regarded her friend closely. Not one to usually give advice, she wasn’t sure what to say.

    “Please Shane, tell me what you think.”

    “You know Tina, a few months ago I would not have believed it. I thought Bette and Jodi were going to be together, and that you would eventually find someone else too. I mean you guys couldn’t even be in the same room together at one point. Then slowly, I saw your friendship begin to re-emerge, and I would see the looks each of you would give each other when you thought no one was watching. That was when I started to think that maybe….just maybe you would find a way to work things out. The thing that is different this time, is that you know what you have to lose, and that makes all the difference in the world. Maybe it gives you just a little more incentive, not to repeat your past mistakes.”

    2. YAY~!!!! I was thrilled to see an update from you T! To think, Tina was going to see Kit! What a terrific dialog between Tina and Shane. I loved this line, as I am sure you know….”Having that one special person to share it with, who accepted you as you were, didn’t try to change you to be something or someone else>” Good stuff my friend. Thanks SO much for making my day complete. ** HUGS **

    3. I love this story! Your writing is so captivating especially the notes attached to each flower delivery. Can’t wait for Tina to arrive at Bette’s.

    4. Go to her Tina, a very good chapter Taz, I loved the talk, sometimes you need to hear it from another sources to know it’s the right thing to do, Shane struck me as a wise person despite all of her flaws but I know people are not all bad and full of flaws and they are not all good, they make mistakes that can change their lives forever cause they suppose to learn from them. Thank you dear and post soon

    6. So….. Bette’s hoping it is Tina on the other side of the door, but Tina has gone to see Kit…… who just happens to be on the other side of Bette’s door…. Well, that is my theory anyway. I look forward to the next post.

    8. Shane is so sweet,Only the two of you will know. In the world you need to do what is best for you not anyone else. That is hard to do sometimes,but love has a funny way of changing things. thanks

    9. Now, where is Tina off to and who is knocking at Bette’s door? I hope that Bette does not freak out tooo much. Can’t wait for the next chapter.

    13. So happy that Tina had that talk with Shane and Kit would have probably told her the same thing, more or less. Now on to see Bette and tell her how she feels. Grat chapter. Can hardly wait for the next chapter. PPS
