The Journey 44
Bette: “That’s no good” and I have stripped my clothes and stand under the shower willing, praying that I can hold the tears in. “Please God, let me hold it together.” I look up.
Tina: “Is
Tina: “Sorry Tee, must have done it with out thinking.” I reach out and open the lock and turn to face the wall so my back is to Tee. “Asleep” is all I say. I can’t focus.
Tina: “You are showering late.”
Bette: “Just wanted to feel fresh before going to bed.” I say quietly.
Tina: “What?”
Bette: “Just wanted to feel fresh before going to bed.” I say louder.
Tina: “Speaking of bed” I yawn. “I might make my way there now. I’ll check on
Bette: “See you in a bit” and I still have not turned around. I step out the shower and do not attempt to dry myself. I feel the bile rising in my throat as I start to process what is happening. Am I that out of touch? Does Tina want a man? I thought we were doing OK. Have I misunderstood, what is there to misunderstand? I pull on my dressing gown and head to the spare room. I slip under the cover with my gown on. I admonish myself. Has everything really been OK or I have just seen what I wanted to see? What if we break up and I can’t adopt the kids? Is this about money, I don’t earn anywhere what I used to but I love my job. I don’t sleep.
Three hours later I wake and realize I am in the bed alone. “Bette?” I whisper but get no answer. I get out of bed and wander in the dark. She is not out the back, not in the living room. I bet she is in the study working. Bette sometimes does that when she cannot sleep.
I head into the study and see no lights on but in the dim light see a half consumed beer. So, she was working. I open the door to the spare room and see a sleeping Bette in her gown under the covers. I quietly close the door and head back to our room.
Rudely the sun shines in and I feel like I have not slept at all but I am greatful to have to go to work and be able to get away. I hear Tina talking to
Tina: “Hey sleepyhead, I was just coming to get you, you will be late. What’s with the spare room?”
Bette: “I’m awake.” I state it rather matter of factly but Tina doesn’t seems to notice.
Tina: “I’ll get you a coffee.”
Bette: “Thanks. I’ll get one after I shower.” I shower and dress and pick up my briefcase. I mutter good bye to Tee and kiss
The traffic was murder. I get to the office, close my door, speak to no one and put my head in my hands “FUCK” I scream out loud as I fiercely push the phone onto the floor and hear it crash.

Oh damn, I guess I’m glutton for punishment. Hope you post more soon.
please don’t go where s3 is going, show is enough…i love the way you write, but can’t take more heartbreaks…it’s your story though, sorry
Great chapter. I hope you let them stay together. Post soon.
I hope you do not let S3 influences too much. Ups and downs but no break up. I waiited sooooo long for this story to continue but not in the lines of S3. Glad you are back!
I have been waiting for your update to this story and the moment I started reading I felt sadness wash over me. I don’t understand how Tina can be so nice with Bette while cheating on her all in the same breath. I so consider internet sex just as bad as actualy having an affair if not worse. Bette needs to confront Tina and I hope Tina has some sort of explanation. Please have them work it out. Althoug it’s painful to read I still enjoy your writting pleas post soon.
Siince the story is taking a new direction and there is some concern I thought I post briefly to clarify a few things. One I will not be following S3 storylines necessarily all the way or to the letter. For Brokke – I think you’ll find all was not as well as Bette thought. Tina might see things a bit differently. I agree internet sex is no different. If it is something you wouldn’t do with your partner there, don’t be doin’ it at all.
OMG you can’t leave us there…pls post soon
Well, it had been so long I had to click “previous” to see where the story had been, but things have changed so much I’m not sure I should have bothered. Poor Bette, contemplating wedding bands one second, being confronted by Tina’s cyber cock the next. Saw your comment. See you next time.
Hey Bette, cell phones cost money! Save it for the divorce lawyer! BTW – can someone tell my why the hottest woman in Weho is getting punk’d by ….nevermind…Thanks!
Don’t let S3 get to you too much….
Damn this is sad and drama coming!
I’m with BTF…enough with S3 cannot take anymore.
This is sooo good to have you back, thank you for the post. I give you my personal maestro award, I love your story ! biz ;-)
Hmmmm…Bette’s words of “I’m awake” are rather telling. Glad that you won’t be following S3 but I can only imagine what’s been going on in Tina’s head. How can Bette misread Tina for the past 6 months…she’s changed, surely she would’ve realised that something was off.
well hoeny, ive been gone as long as you. and wow im glad to see that youve posted. fuck is all i have to say also. wonderfully done but ETF is wrong with tina. thanks.
why do you have to incorporate season 3? Your story was doing fine without all that shit…Ok one more story I won’t be reading I guess.
Looks like we are infor abad ride. Bette cant afford to moveexcept to the uest room. Maybe Tina cyper sex friend will asked what she stopped in the middle of sex and she will know that Bette was the one. thanks
I’m going to trust you but I’m hating this s/l on the show so I hope you give us a great twist. I know you can write it well just don’t torture us too much we fans are already been mistreated by IC.
Tina: “fuck don’t tell me she is trying for sex again…Hoping to avoid sex I go to bed so I might be asleep when Bette arrives.” guess that says a lot
