The Journey
Tina: And I am not sure what to do. I silently sit down just a little closer than I was before. It gradually gets darker and the stars appear one by one. I know if I let Bette she will sit out here all night. We sit silently, both lost in our own thoughts until I realize it is completely dark. "I better check on the girls."
Bette: "I’ll come too."
Tina: "You don’t have to Bette. I mean….
Bette: I just watch Tina and wait for her to finish.
Tina: "What I am trying to say, is you seem to be enjoying yourself. Come in, when you are ready. I can keep an eye on the girls."
Bette: "OK" and I look down at the sand. I hear Tina make her way back to the house. I sit in the sand which is cooler in the dark and study the stars. I see stars that are far away and stars that seem close and bright, even though intellectually I know them to be a long way away. All I hear is silence, there are no waves because there is no wind. There are no cars or sirens or cell phones because we are away from the city. I smell the salt in the air and I squeeze the damp sand between my toes. I love it out here but I am stalling on returning to the house. I take a deep breath and remind myself of why we are here and as much as I love it out here, there will be other nights, tonight is not the night to leave Tina alone, or let her feel I have left her emotionally. I stand up and brush the sand away. I make my way to the house and open the sliding door. Immediately I see the clock, it is after 10pm. I have been outside a long time, longer than I realized.
Bette: "I’m sorry Tina, I didn’t realize it was so late. You should have come and got me."
Tina: "It’s OK Bette." And I am genuine in my tone. "I let the girls keep sleeping, they were tired after the drive."
Bette: And for the first time I notice the table set. "Shit." I say frustrated and loud enough for Tina to hear.

Very beautiful, I too have missed your calm voice as you move these ladies through all their feelings.
I know what I want, Tina, no Bette, no Tina, no Bette. Oh damn too hard to choose. Okay Tina wants Bette. I am hoping that Tina is able to get through to Bette. Bette is scared and I can understand, but she still loves tina or she would not be there with her.

Ok I have a little question, ok Tina just have a baby and now she drink beer, I dont think Tina can drink beer or wine right now that she is breastfeed right. OK post soon please, thanks!
I believe Bette needs to listen to Tina. you can’t solve problems if your in different places thanks
So glad you are back. I missed your story and your writing. You did a wonderful job fixing them before, I hope you can do it again. Thanks for posting.
Excellent story. You have a good ear for their convos. They are so indecisive, on tenterhooks. Keep it up.
this is so good you are back ! there is an unbelievable intensity in your story, you describe the scenes so well, and the dialogue always fits perfectly with the context. I love it, thank you ;-)
great to see you back! I’ve read this & now i can’t remember for my life what Bette has done in this story to upset Tina – so i’ll just have to go & re-read it all (what a lovely excuse!)
I am so glad that you’re back. Hope the real life interruption wasn’t too serious and that you came through it safe and sound. Hope to see many more posts…you’re one of my fave writers!
Yeah, I have to agree with Tina on her last sentense. As long as that’s what you want, you can have it again. All the emotional matters could be solved by emotion.
So glad you are back. I love this story.
i’m happy you’re back…i hope both B&T want the same thing – each other
Thanks for the chapter. I am still in awe of your ability to write. Keep it up, take your time and carry on making it special.
So happy to see that you back! ^_^ Hope that Bette sees thru the haze and realize they want one another. Can’t wait for your next update …
