“I have to say that you look incredibly tired Tina “
“It’s a high pressure job and yes – I am tired “
“Being pregnant isn’t helping I imagine “
“It’s hard to say whether it is the job or the baby or both “
“I know that what I know about being pregnant is limited but you are a very fit woman – should you be so tired so soon?”
“My health is great but the whole thing with Shane has taken its toll “
“What has it done to the baby’s other mommy?”
“Bette can be dispassionate about much more than I ever could but you know how she feels about Shane – about how we both feel for her”
“How is Shane?”
“She has had her operation to pin her leg back into place but she is coming on great according to Carmen who has taken everything in her stride “
“When are you and Bette going to see her?”
I look away – suddenly I have a lump in my throat.
“Tina? “Helena’s voice is soft and full of concern
“Bette is with her now “
“Why aren’t you with her?”
“Oh God Helena it is such a mess “
Helena reaches out her hand and touches my face. Just one simple gesture is enough to make me crack – I start crying. I am so miserable right now when I should be so happy and being snubbed by Bette was just so hard to take. Helena moves across and puts her arm around me – I rest against her shoulder as I let the tears flow.
“Come on Tina – its okay “
“Its not – Bette is so angry with me “
“I find that hard to believe- why?”
“We had a row and I was vile to her “
“I take it you two don’t argue as much as we used to?”
I sniff back my tears “It’s not possible to argue as much as we used to. To answer your question – no Bette and I don’t argue “
“You two have both been through a terrible experience with what happened to Shane and you being pregnant and now having to step into Shane’s job. I heard that Bette virtually suspended Alice. Do you want to talk?”

I think Bette should have taken some time away by herself. She should have listened to Shane on this one. She can hardly be objective when everything revolves around Tina. I know they are in love, but when you realize your entire Staff needs to be revamped, you need to do that with a clear head. I really don’t think Bette knows how to seperate her decisions without thinking how they will impact Tina. Tina is not POTUS. I think Tina will throw a fit when Bette tells her she doesn’t want Lucy back. I’m curious what Kit had to say to Bette. I know how being preggers affect your hormones, but Tina is using that as a scapegoat for tirades. I’m not a fan of Alice in this one. Her comments are off the cuff and out of line. ALL of your stories are awesome, so it doesn’t matter which one you update as long as update 1 of them. I’m not picky, but I love your writing and your stories.
Ally, thank you for a lovely wonderful chaper and for giving both of these characters someone they could talk to – and thanks for working so hard to get these wonderfuls stories to us. You are amazing. Ane your stories are special.
I am very glad Bette spoke to tina before she decided to leave on her trip. I think Tina being there is a good idea it eill keep her grounded. Their home isand grounds are so large that Bette will have as much alone time as she needs and will still be able to talk through the problems they are going through. Tina will probably be a little disappointed that Lisa will not get her old job back but also knows she has to face the consequences for what she did. She needs to work hard to regain the trust and respect that she lost by her own actions.
Hope you’re less snotty soon. Tina really needs some friends independent of the White House. Is there no one from her prior life besides Helena she can turn to, from her school days or former journalism colleages that could be trusted to not use her friendship? And I think Bette is feeling lost because for once everything in her inner circle isn’t peachy and that Bette bears some responsibility for that. And Alice may be misbehaving from being as lonely as Tina but even more left out. After all, Tina has Bette to turn to, Alice no longer does. New blood would be good for Bette. I mean on staff, not as practice for the delivery room.
I so enjoyed this chapter. The way the first part was written really allowed me to understand what Tina must be feeling~ I forgot how isolated she really is~ Bette has Shane, Kit and even Melvin. Whereas, Tina has given up alot (friends, job, independence) to be with Bette..at least she has Helena…I know Bette keeps saying she feels “lost”, but I think that Tina is the one more “at risk” in this situation, especially of losing her identity… I have a feeling this whole Emily book thing is gonna mess with her head as well..lots of potential trouble for Tina in the near future ..Love your stories Ally, thanks for posting!!
Another great post Ally, nice insight into T’s state of mind, her sense of isolation. It is very hard to be in either of their positions and one often fears opening up and allowing themselves to be vulnerable because it can be misconstrued. I’m always amazed at the depth and detail that you create with your stories and where you find the time! And, although I don’t wish being ill on anyone, if it allows you to write unfettered, well, umm, put down the cold medicine and pick up the computer!! LOL. Looking forward to more…
They are so sweet to each other that it hurts my teeth. I think I’m probably in the minority but I prefer them a little bit edgier and not so mushy, But it’s your wonderful story and keep on.
Ally….wonderfully done! I loved how they came back and talked it out! You pulled that one off Mate!
Dear author, I never took time to express to you how I LOVE your stories. Not only this one, one of the greatest story on this site for so much months, but also the wonderful Love and Pride and this jewel of All you need is love. I just wanted to thank you a LOT, from the deepest of my heart, for your generous talent. For always your reader ! ^_^
Ally, WOW!!!! The way you write is so wonderful and loving. Thank you
beautiful… Helena and Shane are very good friend for both of them and like Bette said, comunication is so important and love can face everything… thanks Ally for this chapter and i hope that you feel better soon
Hey there,thanks for taking the time to rewrite….glad they made up and are off to Virginia…
hey, take care of u…..b4 all else….
Hey Ally, Good to get back to this amorous adventure. It was so heartwarming to have Bette apologize to Tina and Tina to return the action. These two are so much stronger together than apart. It was interesting for TIna to have Helena as a sounding board here. Just kepp on doing what you keep doing as it is fantastic to follow. Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
So glad you handled that.. I was getting nervous it would be some huge fight that dragged on. I love love Love and Pride.. because the characters are so sweet so when you get back to that I’ll be reading. But if you write a little more about the weekend with the girls and six kids I’ll be reading that too. Hope you feel better. PPS.
I bel;ieve Tina is so self-centered, God! do they always have to bash Alice when she is not there to defend herself. They are not prefect neither, especially Tina. I hope Alice comebacks and doesn’t resign, to show them that she can take any punch they throw at her.
I really like how Helena has changed for the better in this story. At least Tina has her to confide in. It must suck to be so untouchable at times that it’s hard to have real friends. =/ I wonder what was said between Kit and Bette? Hope you’re feeling better today. =)
You’re not gonna make them break up are you? Cause that would kill me you know!
That was so sweet and so loving, thank you for writing this piece. They love each other very much and they do need to communicate more. Also they need to get laid soon as well! PPS
Great chapter Ally!
That was awesome Ally, glad that B&T talk and can’t wait to see they talk more in Virginia. Thanks my friend!
Ally… thank you!! Seriously, I hope you can get good publisher to publish your story! Wishing you all the best :-)
