“You can supervise Ella’s evening “
“What are you planning ?”
“To order dinner and maybe might have a long soak in the bath “
She smiles
“You deserve it – I wish I could take you away to some luxury spa for a few days “
“I don’t need a luxury spa – I just want to eat pie with you “
Bette looks at me and shakes her head
“You know that I don’t deserve you “
“99% of the time you do “
“I don’t at the moment “
I go across and sit beside her again
“You have been here for me when I have been a pain the ass – its what married couples do “
“Thanks “
“it’s a bad patch but we have to talk and really make sure that you and don’t drift”
“We are drifting though”
“You are a little rudderless at the moment – its one of those things. Don’t worry Bette”
——————————————–
By 8:30 we have eaten and are both in our pyjamas and sitting in front of the fire in the main sitting room. I am leaning against a chair with a couple of giant cushions behind my back. Bette is in front of me – half lying down with her head on my stomach. Its been about fifteen minutes since either of us spoke. I am just enjoying feeling close to her again. In the last few weeks we have drifted apart and that’s something that we have both been guilty of. To be snuggled up like this is a rare event – but its one that we do have to get back to becoming a regular event in our lives.
“I have been thinking about maybe getting some professional help “ she says
“You would need someone who wasn’t spooked by you being you “
“You don’t seem shocked “
“I have been thinking about suggesting it but I wasn’t too sure how you would react”
“Bear with a sore head time ?”

Lovely installment as usual! What’s done is done (Sadly) and to keep scratching the itch will only make it worse…if that’s possible!! Thank you for your love of Tibette and sharing your gift…
Bette needs to stop harping on the past as much as she does. Sure she was a royal bich, but now she needs to grow a pair and relax & trust Tina. As for IC maybe the fans of the l word should come together make a commercial and have it aired just for her. Maybe then she may really see the hugeAss disappointment she is to us and get off her high horse.
I think the interrogation tapes are a ploy to drag us to their Web site to raise business. Awful! But you’re right that we are creating the drama now. So on we go. Thanks for posting this update. It’s good to see them working through things and not avoiding. Thanks for posting!
I prefer to believe that season 6 and these interrogation tapes don’t exist! For this story–this has always been a favorite of mine. It’s time for a little intimacy between our first couple, Ally! PPS
Alley, I do enjoy this story also, I like the way it flows, I also did not enjoy the last season of L word, I have heard if something is talked about, or hated enough, then the writers win either way, because that means people watched no matter what. There are talented writers in the TV world, If one of them is smart, they will pitch a similar story to another station, try to get a few of the actresses on board and write another one, that makes sense. It is clearly wanted by alot of fans. But, if they get IC to write a movie, Count me out. My ending was Season 5. Thanks for continuing to write
Perhaps Melvin could step up and offer some truth instead the speculation Bette’s been living with. After the requisite makeup NC-17.
Glad that the domestic crisis is almost done with. We have got something wonderful giong on in here after all the crap we TiBetters have been too this week. Thanks Ally
ally – you are a blessing beyond compare.
Damn refreshing to read your “authors notes”.
Wonderful chapter. Really like how u do not allow Bette to demonize her mother by making Tina say all the wise things. Tina is right she has her needs also. Truly the gods and angels sent them at this time to be each other’s life companion. Lovely stuff. Thx. Hmmm, now ‘Take me to bed Tina’…I like and methinks some intimacy would just seal the healing of the earlier evening. pps
That was great and glad B&T talk and work thing out, Tina is there to help her get through things. Please post more, thanks!
Ally I’ve always said you are the one that should be writing for Showtime. I completely agree with what you’re saying regarding IC. She goes for the cheap publicity, knowing that the only way she’s going to get high ratings is to get them in a negative way. How can she sleep at night knowing that she has completely blown off the perfect opportunity to show millions how beautiful and amazing women are. It’s such a shame. I love your writing Ally and I’m with you all the way…”Lets get on with enjoying how freaking fantastic it is to be a lesbian and celebrate our friendships!”
The only thing more brilliant than the conceit of this story is your dazzling ability in creating a world we’ve followed you into. I too am glad you’re continuing it. Since I found it – late to the game I realize – I have been keen to catch up.Oh, and voted for Hillary in our primary and as a write in in the general election. As for the tragedy that was L Word – if there is a higher power in TV/advertising – please someone, redo the 6th season with the actors who made those characters and that show what it was when it was best.And let IC pickle in her self-loathing to paraphraise Alice.
bette is finally making head way!!! tina is so good for her! :)PPS
Amen and Hallelujah to your author’s notes, I agree wholeheartedly. I wonder if we made enough noise whould Shotime go back and give us another season to correct the crap. Now back to read the story. Thanks AllyE for stating your mind and the aboslute gospel truth.
wow, it sure pays to refresh and take a look at the story posting before shutting down….I’m thinking that we get to have a good nc-17 between our couple…they def need to reconnect. Tks ally
This chapter was a much needed conversation between these two lovely ladies. Bette has been stressing out over things and putting blame where it did not need to be. I alos think Tina is right about Bette’s mother. I wish Tina could do more investigating and find something that the mother wrote that dispel Bette’s notion that her mother did not want her. As Tina stated Melvin was a pluperfect asshole to his wife and did not deserve her and of course his behavior did not do any good at al to a fragile person. I would think that since she faked her death she was alive when Bette went to the Senate and then became VP and President. she did not want her hsitory to hurt Bette in any way and what better way to keep her safe than to fake her own death. That speaks to volumes of love for her child. Nowback to the evening at hand, Bette is about to have a much needed lovely and very intimate evening with her wife which both deserve very much. Thanks for posting AllyE. Post when you can.
Loved the chapter, I’m so glad this two are finally talking! And as for your AN’s… you are completely right and though watching that horrendous tape did freak me out and disappoint me because it’s a delicate subject that needed more development… I will ignore its existence. Tina should have never been treated as an afterthought! Whatever, we continue on and having authors like you, writing these incredible stories… makes it all better! You rock Ally! xoxo
Ally, once again brilliant. I never tire of this story. You are talented beyond compare.
It’s about time madam President….Tina take her to bed!!!!!!! :)
I didn’t get all worked up about the Tina tape at all. I think some people like to personalize, some like to catastrophize, some live to hate IC and somehow imagine that she shoulda writ the story their way, whatever that was…and really look at Fanfic, how could IC ever plz everyone? we all write our own versions of the L Word characters. And readers choose what they want to read and enjoy. I say, get over it and continue to write entertaining FF. Personally, I aam stoked that Showtime, IC and the girlz represented ‘my’ life and opened up our world to so many who had the courage to ‘come out’.
RE: your author’s note–I totally agree. I think IC was pissed regarding the fans strong and unwavering support for Tibette. I also kind of get the feeling that Laurel and IC may not have gotten along in real life as well. This was a final eff you to the fans. And one final note, as someone who works with survivors of sexual abuse, Tina would never consider her sister her first. If she got help, which she must have to be the functioning person she was on the show, she would always classify their encounters as abuse rather than equate it to consensual sexual encounters. That is really what pissed me off the most. I think its a slap in the face to survivors of abuse. Okay, stepping off my soap box. Off to read the chapter
