Bette: I try to recover my composure. My sunglasses are knocked off my head Tina hit me so hard. It happens all in a spilt second. My ability to react is impaired from the beer and the sleep deprivation. I glare at Tina as I contemplate hitting her back. Hard.
Kit: “That’s enough both of you.” I command and they both turn around as I stand there with Janice.
Bette: Tina and I both look at Kit, stunned. “What are you doing here?”
Kit: “Never mind that, what the hell are you both doing?”
Bette: “It’s none of your business Kit, but if you must know Tina is leaving.”
Tina: “Not without the girls I am not Bette.”
Bette: I wave to Janice. “Good morning Janice” I say as if we were having coffee.
Janice: Bette’s bravado doesn’t fool me, I’ve seen her at her lowest. I ignore her.
Tina: “Hello, I’m Bette’s wife. You must be Janice.” I say sarcastically. “Bette, neglected to introduce us before now.”
Janice: I say nothing as I watch these women and their relationship self destruct.
Bette: I raise my palms to the heavens and shrug my shoulders. “Kit, what are you doing here?”
Kit: “Your neighbors called me instead of the police.” I say sternly.
Bette: “Imagine that Tina, we were disrupting the peace. One cannot even have a domestic in peace these days without the whole world knowing” and I am dramatic. I look around and see
Kit: “Are both of you satisfied now? Honestly.” I say in exasperation. “How about if the girls come with me, for a night or two.”
Bette: “That won’t solve anything Kit.”
Kit: “Tina?”
Tina: “I am agreeable to that, as long as I can talk to them.”
Kit: “Ofcourse. Bette?”
Bette: “OK, OK.”
Kit: I collect the girls and put them in the car. Bette and Tina kiss them goodbye like it is any trip to Aunty Kit’s. Janice gets in the passengers seat. I am relieved we did not have to do more.
Bette: Tina and I are alone again. I find Tina out the back sitting on the chair. “Nothing has changed Tina, get out by the end of the day.”

This is all types of wrong…..seriously. I am tired of the violence and the thoughts about violence on this site at the moment.
Don’t do this.. you’re breaking my heart, please let this be a bad dream or something.. I cannot believe Bette would ask Tina to get out and leave those 2 girls, just no way.
Ditto on the violence. This used to be a good story; what happened to it?
patience …..geesh
I’ve always loved this story, but I feel the shows influence here. I’d love to see you bring them back.
I’ve got to agree with the other comments. Sinking to the depths of whatever it is the visionaries (and I use that term loosely) who run the show have taken the characters, especially Tina, doesn’t do much for our already battered hearts. This was a good story, I hope it turns around again soon.
I love this story, yes it has kind of skidded off in a different direction than where I thought but it’s a great story…I think that as an audience ff/tv we are getting overwhelmed by the terrible turn S3 is taking. It seems that each week just when we hope it will get better it doesn’t and actually gets worse…hard to imagine after E9..Unfortunately there are quite a few stories that are taking a chunck from S3 and running with it, yes most are very well written, but still that seems to be what we are being fed as of course art immitates life??? Unbeknown, this is a story worth reading, pls don’t let our depression get you down enough to stop writing…I fear that we have seen too many authors not finish great stories, this must be just as hard to write as it is to read the only difference is that you know the ending…pls just post often to allow us to get thru this digestion…pls post soon…
WOW!!!! I love this chapter. Tina and Bette alone for two days might be good or could be bad. Please let us know soon
I like the story, I think its great. Both Bette and Tina are heading the wrong way with this, but I do understand our animal instincts make us act foolish sometimes. I do have faith in you and hopefully both turn out ok in the end even if its with out them together. Please post soon.
ok im confused at what part of “The Journey” are they now?? or its only about to start??. Well lets see where you’re taking this. Post soon.
Well, in some sense, I like to see them fighting. When they have problems, fighting is much better than pretending polite and restrain their feelings. After fighting, they could be more open to one another. Tina, hang on. You did something wrong. So you should be the one who break the ice. Bette, well, let’s see how long you could insist. ;) Great chapter!
From my personal experiences, a little, what you’d refer to as violence, is good for a relationship. Only I don’t see it as violence, sometimes when 2 people cannot communicate with words, getting a little physical helps to break down those walls. And I guess almost everyone is getting upset or are already upset about B & T, cause there are not as many posts from the various authors on the site anymore…..everyones disgusted and heart broken.
OK, yes, another story depicting violence, so this time I’ll say it sooner rather than later: As one should not confuse the actor with the role, neither does an author depicting violence mean they are condoning it. C’mon folk, it’s been the rare version of these two where they’ve handled things like mature, self-restrained adults. Why so shocked now? Intense? Yes. Unpleasant? Yes. It’s fiction and we have it so we can explore these things in safety.
I’ve always thought that you’ve put out a consistently well written story with many twists and turns. I’m sure this is just one more. Sometimes this format lends itself to conlusion jumping and quick judgment. I’m sure there are lots of loyal readers who are willing to wait (hopefully not too long) to see how this drama plays out. Thanks for writing. Keep the faith………
Bette is so hurt, angry and frustrated that she doesn’t know how to respond to Tina. She’s tried the kind, gentle way and Tina stomped all over her and humiliated her and their relationship by sleeping with a guy in their home and Bette’s bed. So, Bette is lashing out. I don’t find that so unbelievable.
I think this has merit. Sometimes, one’s anger just drives one to do violent things. Bette kicking Tina out, now I wish she’d do that on the show. Be firm Bette, make Tina make a choice.
this is all so wrong…how did the romantic journey turned into a nightmare? i don’t even know where you’re taking them anymore…oh well, i guess i have to be patient…with s3 patience is not my forte anymore
well…i’m about 3 years late with my question but… WHERE did Janice come from? how did she happen to show up with Kit at that hour? why i’m nitpicking 3 years later, i don’t know– i’ve just discovered your stuff… and have been on an ‘Unbeknown’ marathon for 3 days!
i know you may be frustrated with the way the show is going but please don’t make bette turn out to be some kind of bad person coz i really can’t see her throwing tina out of their house.. even if it means she is sticking up to herself.. i think bette should leave tina in a way that an alpha person does.. with dignity and class..
one more thing, people seems to know better than you how you should write your story, they’re wrong, your reflection belongs to another level, you are the genius here. Post soon s’il te plait, merci ;-)
unbeknown, the emotional dimension of your story raises the passion of your readers up. You’re an incredible “passion raiser” !! I love your story and the way you write it. thank you ;-)Merciii
Hey UnB,While I appreciate that this storyline is driven from Season 3, I still want to see Bette and Tina get through this together and return to their lovefest. There are little flecks of hope among all of the hurt and heartache in this chapter. Bette needs to open up more to Tina and listen to what she has to say. Tina needs to be strong and resilient and keep fighting for her lover. Gut wretching stuff. Please write more soon and return a sense of harmony to these turbluent times. Your Loyal Fan.
Sometimes relationships have to hit bottom for those in it to work through. I don’t think anyone needs to leave. In truth, they both need to go kickboxing together and get the aggression they have towards one another, and guilt they have in themselves, out. They are not lost yet, maybe on opposite sides of the forrest right now, but not lost. Please post soon.
This is so wrong. Tina will get the kids they belong to her,Bette is not going to win this one. No more violence we have had enough. thank goodness Bette didn’t hit Tina thanks
They’ll work it out…I don’t know how but they will. Although two days won’t fix everything, let’s hope they make good use of the time. I trust where you’re taking the characters, Unbeknown.
i really hope they find the way to be available to talk and they don`t figth, they love eache other and they have a family and a newborn child they need to find the rigth way.
i used to love the story..what happened? violence doesn’t solve anything. i cannot stand the idea of 2 human beings having a go at each other…..the adults can fight but pls leave the 2 innocent girls alone
