Tina: I close my eyes and slowly open them and maintain eye contact with Bette, who looks ever so confused. I hold her hand, I do not want to lose her. I remind myself honesty is the best policy. I see her frown in the candle light. Bette turns her other hand palm up as if to indicate she does not know what to do. I take my time, take a deep breath in and out.
Tina: “Bette, I’m pregnant.” I say simply knowing nothing about this will be simple.
Bette: I sit in stunned silence unsure I heard correctly. I see the candle light flicker on the wall behind Tina. “You’re what?” as I nearly spit my sparkling water out.
Tina: I suddenly feel less sure. “I’m pregnant.” I try to remain positive and strong but I speak quietly.
Bette: I slowly withdraw my hand and clasp my hands in front of me. “You’re what?” I raise my voice a little. “I mean, how the *****?”
Tina: I do not answer because I know Bette heard me. I maintain eye contact as Bette glares at me.
Bette: I push the chair back and stand, dumping my napkin on the plate. I ponder pregnant for a minute. “”You’re pregnant?” I glare at Tina, my hands on my hips and I’m almost yelling. Tina remains seated. “I mean, how can you be pregnant? Are you sure?”
Tina: “Yes. I’m sure Bette, a little over 2 months.”
Bette: “Tina” I say slowly. “I don’t understand.” And I run my hands through my hair as I start to pace in the living room.
Tina: I follow Bette. I feel her slipping away already. “Bette, I didn’t know you were coming home.”
Bette: “WHAT THE ***** DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?” and if the neighbors heard, good.
Tina: “Please Bette, calm down and I’ll explain.”
Bette: “Damn right you’ll explain.” I demand.
Tina: Bette has not spoken at me like that since we separated. “Please Bette.” And she has her back to me.
Bette: I turn around and raise my eyebrows. “I’m waiting….”
Tina: “Bette, I did not know you were coming home or that even if you did we would have gotten back together, if I’d known that I would have waited. Waited to try again for another baby”

Great chapter. Looking forward to more.
It’s always a pleasure to read your stories. The dialogue is so true to the characters. You have an excellent ear in expressing their thoughts.
well, old bette is back but good for kit to help her and be firm with her…this is a great way for bette to be with tina through the whole pregnancy…i hope bette will think and talk to tina and realize that kit is right…post soon
well i’m glad she wasn’t sleeping with men and “accidentally” got pregnant.love your writing, please continue.
Ok now we all know how Tina get pregnant and Bette need to come home and talk with Tina and woke thing out. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Never in my wildest dreams did I think that Tina was pregnant. Great. Happy for them, and Bette will have the opportunity to be with Tina during this pregnancy and they MUST talk about this. Bette needs to get herself under control and stop flying off in the wrong direction all the time. Control that temper. Thanks for the update and post soon please.
Bette better get her ass home to Tina.This development is just adding to the quality of the story.Still loving it.
I can understand why Bette was upset. B & T haven’t been back together long and now another surprise for Bette. Tina should have told Bette that she was trying to have another baby…regardless if she got pregnant or not. That was a mistake on Tina’s behalf…they both messed up. Bette should go home and talk to Tina…they need to be together. This is truly a second chance for both…they can both enjoy this pregnancy, but they need to talk. Thanks for the update.
I’m happy for Bette and Tina now, since Tina’s using insemination instead of some other ways. =P
I agree they both messed up. Maybe now they will see how important it is to talk to each other. Great chapter!
well, thank god for kit, that’s all i have to say. Bette’s self-righteousness is soooooooo out of line. I totally agree with Pandora – wow, what an ‘attitude’ … thanx 4 the update and just in case you r wondering – i do know that this is only a story … hehehehehehe
WOW..BETTE BETTER GET HER ASS BACK HOME..THANKS..POST SOON’
If Bette does want this child,then Tina will have two blessing,and Bette a lonely life. If Bette is smart she will get her ass home and take care of her family. thanks
hehe.. kit to the rescue again :D .. shes always good at whooping some sense into Bette with a good ol verbal kick up tha ass :D *does the go Kit dance*
i agree with tina on this one,she wanted to give laurel a brother or sister it was bette who left. now she can be here for this birth,bette pull your head out of your ass and go back home and tell tina what an ass u really are.
I am so happy that it wasn’t what i thought it was. Get Bette back home immediately. I know that can be a hard pill to swallow but, she will love it this time around. I kinda suspected this about Tina when she was throwing up on the side of the road. She and Bette had the same thing yet Bette wasn’t sick at all.
i simply hate that kind of atitude Bette have..she always think everything is about her..its about time she change Tina did for them i hope Bette grow up and enjoy the pregnancy with Tina…that was fucking amazing chapter cant wait for more thanks :o)
what did tina expect this is bette porter!!!!!! bette get your ass home now!!!!!!!!!!
Great update. Yes, please Bette go home and talk to Tina. Please post soon
that was a great chapter. Bette needs to cool off and realize all the good things that this can be. thanks and hope you post soon.
Very nice ! Bette’s reaction can be expected, of course. Thank God, Kit is here, as usual !! Hope she’ll realize that a family is pretty great !
Bette’s attitude has to go, and she has too talk to her woman,great chapter Merry Christmas and a happy new year
Does Bette never learn? Talk woman. Great story.
I’m sure Big Red makes enough at the bar to support BOTH of the kids AND Tina…
u wrote such a great story, the whole 42 chapters. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!! continue pls
Tina could have told her when she was feeling sickly. Even if the test came back negative, Bette still should have known. Now Bette is sent into shock again, hmm she’s been home less than two months and a lot has happened to her. Tina has been getting everything her way this time and Bette has been honest with her. Tina knows she messed up, that’s why she’s fretting. I know you’ll work it out for them, but I can’t see Bette as the villian here. Tina was a coward on this one. Even the fact that she went to Marcus again should have been shared with Bette. Angst and more, thanks.
great chapter…. let’s get some long chapters coming…. we see a bit of the old bette, but I hope that this new bette thinks things thru and see’s that it’s not worth losing who you love that it’s worth fighting for and working out… let’s not see her pride get in the way! love your story hope to read your next chapter soon
i just read the 2 last chapters, it’s like another xmas gift to me ;-) Whichever way you make your story goes, I trust you and follow you there. You are excellent ! Thank you
This is great drama, but Bette needs to get her ass home – what would she do without Kit??? I suspected that Tina was pregnant, when she was throwing up on the way home, because they had the same food and Bette wasn’t sick. Please post soon…
