Bette : “Not that busy.” I say a little testily.
Tina :”Maybe I should get
Bette : Somewhat impulsively “Why don’t you stay for dinner ?” Tina hesitates just a little too long in replying. “I don’t know Bette.”
Bette : I continue. I put the knife down and turn around “Listen Tee, I would like for us to get on for
Tina : “Yeah Bette we do need to talk about somethings.”
Bette : “Like Sam” I push a little but I do not say it a snippy way.
Tina : (thinking, well now this is interesting, once upon a time Bette would have avoided that topic like the plague) “OK, why not, I’ll stay, one condition. You set the table, and I do the cooking. We can eat and talk about Sam” I let Bette know I will take her up on her offer.
It raises a smile from me, the thought of Tina cooking. Amongst the wreckage we can still have a laugh at each others weak spots. Out of habit I set the table in the same formation we always sat in while Tina started cooking. We sat.
Bette : “Great dinner Tee.”
Tina : “Not bad huh ?” She called me Tee.
Bette : “I wanted to talk to you about something too. I have a job here, I plan on staying permanently, which means if
Tina : “That’s great Bette, didn’t take you long to find a job.” She plans on staying. “Sure, we should make the house a little safer”
Bette : I put my fork down and looked Tina “Tina, I don’t want to fight with you. Do you mind if I ask about Sam”
Tina : “Such as” wary but knowing it had to be this way.
Bette : “Tell me about Sam, what role does she have in my daughter’s life ?”
Tina : cautiously “she is really good with Laurel Bette but you know not heavily involved if you understand what I am saying”

I’m feeling their awkwardness & pain – method reading!?
From: SamanthaG
Comments: Well despite my comments I do like Bette (what?! I do), I just don’t hold her to the high regard that most seem to.
So, you do like Bette? Hard to tell….LOL
I don’t hold Bette in a high regard, she is just Bette; human, with the ability to make mistakes just like the rest of us mere mortals.
great post like always…are these 2 gonna put their shit aside as just get back together….please post soon!
Damn this is so sad and so wrong. They really need to talk and work thing out. This is driving me crazy and can’t wait to see what’s next. Thanks!
Love this story
awww thats sad but im glad their talking atleast i really hope things work ou tplease post soon thanx byeness<338973258937qw5
simply adore this story . hope you get your paper done so you are unfettered and able to write without the pressure of paperdom. been there, done that :0)
just love the nuances that are subtley and not so subtley placed . wish you were on the writing staff for the L Word – they could use your talent
what is a mep ?
Really enjoying the story…. write more…
I personally feel like Bette needs a mep maybe Kit should be the one to dish it out….
Truly enjoying your style of writing. Excellent character representations – very fluid story line.
more please..loving it
I really love this story. I’m glad you liked my Kathy Bates comment, cause I honestly believe it’s true. It’s nice they had a pleasant dinner and it didn’t end up in a fight. Good job!
Really nice story. I wonder when Tina will start to talk..she is too cautious about everything..dont get too much worried..just start talking And Bette needs to listen! she is hard to talk to..
Post soon!.
OMG..this is so wrong they have all the chances to talk but they are afraid and this is bad..they need to talk and be confortable with each other this is Bette and Tina not strangers i hope see some progress soon they cant live like this..great chapter thanks
I must be having a bad day if i can be crying half way down the first page. Your beautiful writing helps of course. Can we see Bette making mincemeat of Sam ?
at least they are being civil to one another. I know they have to talk at some point, but I know how you authors love to leave us wanting more. so please write more…
I love how our comments turn into a discussion board debate….I am loving this!
From: SamanthaG
You’d think that Bette was the second coming the way people talk about her. – PRICELESS!!!
From: albeez
does a fuck buddy have any claims? – I am on the FLOOR after reading this one! Al, u just stewwwwwwpid!! LMAO
Ok, UB, you posted so soon I didn’t get a chance to respond to the previous.
First, a big ^5 (high 5) for this: Bette : “Kit , (I pause and frown), Tina came over WITH Laurel because Sam would have told her I was there. And no matter what Tina thinks of me, she knows I would work it out about Laurel. I don’t think it means any more or less than that.
My next thought – Bette and Tina always miss the small stuff, and when they do happen to catch on, it shocks the fuck out of them.
Tina : “Not bad huh ?” She called me Tee….
I guess “T” missed it the first time when Bette left her that voice mail message – Bette: Damn, message bank. Beep. “Hi, Tee, uh Tina, it’s me Bette. I wanted to let you know I am home in LA and staying at the house. I’d like to see you.” And the 2nd time when Bette woke up to Tina and Laurel sitting in the house – Bette: “hey Tee” is all I manage.
And while they are cooking dinner Bette says it again:
Bette : I continue. I put the knife down and turn around “Listen Tee,
But Tina doesn’t notice it until now: Bette: “Great dinner Tee”
DAMN! Sometimes I want to smack them both upside the head!
My last thought – Bette is all saddened that Tina felt the need to ring the doorbell. Its funny how that works; she didn’t ring the bell when she went running over there with Laurel. “Tina sitting on the lounge room floor with her, our daughter Laurel.”
I swear the things you do or don’t do when you’re busted!
I need a strong cup of coffee every time I sit down and read this story….(that’s a good thing UB)
oh ys know how i love this snQQpy us commenters talking to each other.lmao. so now im steweeeppppiddd. huh? was that a steeewwwpppiidddd quesiton? sometimes i just dont get what im reading. i find asking questions & listening to be very educational. helps with making informed decisions. heehee. but even us stewpid girls have questions and thoughts. UB. im loving this story. but gawd damn can someone not have an assumption and fucking talk and ask quesitons.
BTW UB snQQpy is my cyber twin. and usually what she says goes for me to. but im not as stewpid as as she thinks *wink wink*. Your keeping me coming back and thats a good thing.
slippery i ask also what is a mep?
albeez, i thought the girls did pretty well in this chapter, timid and unsure but don’t know they were making assumptions, all in good time…..
I just caught up with your last few chapters. This is a very sad story, but at least there is hope with these two. I understand that it will take some time, but with Laurel (What a nice name btw) they will be able to spend time together too. I loved the Finland part too. Thanks for including it in your story. LOL! Kiitos!
Well despite my comments I do like Bette(what?! I do), I just don’t hold her to the high regard that most seem to.
But anyway yeah I agree that I love reading the comments too because it’s interesting reading all the opinions on the characters. This story certainly helped me see both Bette & Tina’s sides a little better.
Love this Tina and Bette had a chabce to talk when the baby was asleep. I know if one of mine took a nap that late and that long,I would have been up all night Bette can hurt Tina by trying to get her out of her mind,but she can’t get her out of her heart. What is Laurel going to call Bette ? Bette mom mommie ,or mommie Bette. thanks so much for posting
This is exactly why they say love is blind. Keep this one coming. I’m truly enjoying every post.
Great story. Keep them comming.
