CHAPTER 61
Tina: I am a little taken aback, as well as half asleep. This is the first time that Bette has mentioned home. The alcohol from earlier makes me a little slow.
Bette: “Do you think about going home Tee?” and I don’t turn around but continue to stare out the window.
Tina: I try to wake up and prop myself up on my elbows. “I don’t, I don’t know ……..” not really sure what to say or what Bette is thinking.
Bette: “When you think about going home, what do you think about? How shit things were between us or are you looking forward to seeing Helena and Sam?” I say rather bluntly and angrily.
Tina: I’m not sure where all this is coming from. I silently reach over and pull my gown on and make my way over to Bette. I tilt my head and try make eye contact. I gently reach out and touch Bette’s arm, she continues to look staunchly forward. “Bette, what is going on? We just had a fabulous night together……”
Bette: I sit on the end of the bed and Tina sits down next to me, intensely waiting for a response. “Yes, yes we did. But it’s not real is it?”
Tina: “I don’t know what that means, it was real for me, very real and it seemed real for you” and I desperately try to reach Bette. In my view, so often what went wrong with us was that when we should have been reaching out we pulled away from each other.
Bette: I rub my temples. “But can’t you see that it is just here?”
Tina: "Just where?"
Bette: "Here, away from LA."
Tina: “Why, why does it have to be just here?”
Bette: I glare at Tina.
Tina: Bette stares at me like I have two heads. “Talk to me Bette.” I implore. “Don’t make the same mistakes we made before.”
Bette: “That’s just it” I say as I get up and start to pace. “There is no reason why we won’t make those mistakes again, once we get home. We have the same pressures, the same jobs, friends, family, ex’s.” I say with gritted teeth.
Tina: And for the first time I see Bette is scared, scared of returning home and losing me and her family. I watch her for a few seconds and ask “why didn’t you raise this with me earlier?”

Another wonderful chapter ,hope its not the end
you stopped writing for months and when you finally decide to post again, it reminds me very clearly why I was wandering here in the very first place, looking for every new chapter of your first story, you are a STAR, a 100% prodigious big star writer. One more thing, thru your stories, you considerably helped me to improve my english, maybe one day, I’ll give you a call, just to say “thank you” unbeknown (first I need to learn how to say unbeknown). Merci :-)
Love this story and your beautiful writing.
Woohoo! I love it. I am with Bailey I hope your not posting frequently to wrap this story up… I hope they still plane on talking to Laurel. It’s sad that she has had to deal with this and even witness some of the fights her parents have had. Hopefuly Tina and Bette will learn to argue when the kids are not around or at least keep theire voices down when doing so. Thanks a bunch.
I like this Tina also. She is strong and yet gentle also. She is passionate and loving towards Bette. Both have made major mistakes and both need to show each other without question how much they do love one another.
Thank goodness that ended well…I was sweating for a minute. This has always been a favorite story of mine…please keep posting.
wow im so happy to see your story continue… i loved these chapters you have a passion for writing and im really honored to be allowed to read you work its amazing as always thanks again
Wow this is amazing and glad thing work out. OK post soon please, thanks!
I am giddy. Two great chapters in one night. I hope your frequent posting is due to your passion for writing and not an attempt to wrap up this story quickly. Your story makes me smile. Thank you.
WOW!!!! Two chapters in one night. Thank you I glad that Tina and Bette are making there life together. PPS
at last, Bette and Tina really sorting out what’s really important as opposed to what’s pure distraction…please continue
What would the show be like if these two women talked the way you have them talking? I would be really happy.
I think it’s quite normal for Bette to have that insecurity. Tina conceived Jen when Bette’s away. She had no intention to include Bette in the family picture. Didn’t Tina hold back in some sense? Why can’t she just answer Bette’s question and talk to her directly?
oh good, i can understand bette insecurities though, but it’s great that they worked it out
What a journey it’s been unbeknown. Great chapter.I’m glad Bette’s asking these questions.If these are the questions she needs to ask to get over her insecurities, then fine by me. I know Tina’s annoyed,but she understands(or she should). Post soon.
wonderful! and you didn’t make us wait! i like so much that they can move in this, i hope they can come to LA soon
Thanks unbeknown. I really need to go back aways and read some of the older chapters because i’m getting fuzzy around the edges on the exact plot of your storyline…. but for now i’m happy
So wonderful. Bette is a dolt sometimes.
I was so happy to see another chapter. Bette, deep down she’s just a big baby like the rest of us. Nice to see them actually talking, and boy is she lucky Tina understands her so well.
