“Bette, look at me.”, said Tina. She reached down and held her lover’s hand.
Bette looked up shyly and met her girlfriend’s gaze.
“What’s going on? What’s bothering you?”, asked Tina, squeezing Bette’s hand.
Tina became blurry behind the tears standing in Bette’s eyes and she whispered, “I need you, T. And I know you’re not comfortable with that.”
Bette looked back down and blinked. She wiped at the tears that began to slip down her face and felt Tina’s hand begin to rub small circles on her back. Tina leaned her head closer to Bette’s and whispered, “Baby, look at me.”, as she turned her lover’s face towards hers with her right hand.
“What do you need, babe?”, asked Tina.
“I need you. I need you to hold me. Let’s go, T. I’m not hungry anyway.”
At another point in her life, Tina would have ushered her girlfriend upstairs and comforted her in the privacy of their room. She would have put the opinion of others before the pain in her lover’s eyes and let Bette’s need for comfort wait until they were behind closed doors. Tina didn’t understand why the love of her life was dissolving into tears. She didn’t know about Bette’s dream or the sadness that had slipped inside of her lover’s soul. She didn’t know that Bette’s heart was aching that she was haunted by the dream that had seemed so real.
What Tina did know was that Bette needed her and she wasn’t going to leave the love of her life in need. In this moment, time stood still and though the lovers were in a room filled with the loud chatter of their schoolmates and the clanking of silverware and dinner trays, it was if they were on an isolated island where only they existed. All other sounds ceased and everyone in the background seemed to disappear.
In this mental and emotional vacuum of existence, Tina followed her heart and left her hang-ups behind.
Tina shook her head “no” in response to Bette’s suggestion that they head upstairs before leaning in and tenderly kissing Bette’s forehead. She pulled back and whispered, “Come here.”
The lovers moved to straddle the bench seat and faced each other. Tina pulled Bette to her chest and stroked her lover’s dark curls as Bette’s shoulders shook.
“Shh. It’s okay, babe. It’s okay.”, Tina whispered, her heart hurting at her lover’s pain.
With each sob she felt, Tina held on tighter, whispering soothing words into her girlfriend’s ear. And when the tears finally stopped flowing, Bette sat up and smiled weakly into her lover’s eyes.
“Thank you, T”, she whispered.
Tina shook her head and cradled Bette’s cheek in her hand, her thumb stroking the smooth caramel skin. “Don’t thank me, babe. Me and you, right?”
Bette’s smile grew. “Me and you, T. Me and you.”
Tina smiled broadly. “That’s right. And don’t forget it.”, she said, before leaning in and kissing her lover’s soft lips.
“Mmmm. I needed that.”, Bette whispered.
“I know you did.”, said Tina.
“I love you, baby.”
“I know you do. I love you, too.”
Tina leaned in and kissed Bette’s lips once more.
“So, you hungry yet?”, she asked with a smile.
Bette smiled in return and the lovers finished their meal, oblivious to the curious stares, hushed whispers, and pointed fingers that had been directed toward their affections that evening.

“…the curious stares, hushed whispers, and pointed fingers that had been directed toward their affections… “
Ah, those people could bite me!! That was the sweetest thing I’ve ever read! Thanks MTS for the heart felt chapter!
MTS,
That was elegant and beautiful; your story eludes tenderness, love and affection.
The way that Tina put Bette’s need before her own hang-ups demonstrates the true power of love.
Love can move mountains when needed or just simply put a smile on your face and in your heart.
The genuine warmth that you have created in the this tale thaws all of the cold and heartlessness of the world and puts a rosy glow on my face.
I am sure that I wander around looking like a happy fool of hours after completing a chapter like this.
It is down to your wondrous talent that these words, sentences and paragraphs have such a deep and meanful effect on all of your readers.
Thank you for sharing it with me.
Please post soon as this week’s hit seems so long ago.
Your Loyal Fan.
Hey MTS! Sorry for showing up late to the party but I was away this week. Hehe I’m glad Tina was able to push her concerns aside in order to soothe Bette. Seems like trouble lies ahead for our girls, but as they said, it’ll always be the two of them. Thank you!
Nice chapter.Its good to see Tina not hiding her affection in front of her school mates.
Very nicely done lots of emotion please post soon!!!
Whew, I needed that chapter and it brought tears to my eyes. I believe that this may be the quiet before the storm. It is never that easy for PDA’s. I loved this chapter as well, thank you MTS!
I really do love this story so much. Its amazing the way you can draw out emotions from me when I read it. I can sense the impending drama from your last sentence and I can’t wait. Please post more and soon!
what a lovely treat to be treated to this fine sturday night. just want i needed before bed. that was delightful. your writing isso powerful. to be there are twits in the world who are so judgemental. greatful for the love they share will help get over this, right?
The strength one gets from love, is powerful. Hope they continue to hold onto that and that the strength from that love will continue to grow as well. It sounds like their bond is going to be tested, in the not too distant future.
This is my favorite story. You are my favorite author. I’m even rereading all the chapters of the roommates from the beginning and leaving comments ( because I didn’t before). It’s becuase of you that I now actually like to read. Thank you MTS.
Oh man…here are two ways to know that I’m obsessed with your story:
It’s 5:20 in the morning right now, and I’m dead tired, but I’m still reading your story!! What’s wrong with me?
The other day I was driving home and the person in front of me had a license plate that read “MTS” something. Then I was like “Hey…” then I started thinking about your story, then I was like “Aww…hee hee.”
So as you know, it’s a great chapter! I’m scared for what lies ahead of them though.
thank you MTS! :)
Great story MTS so emotional and inspiring. great writing post soon.
Dun,Dun,Dun, I think the shit is about to hit the fan. That is what grandpa was trying to warn Bette about. I will bet a million, no make that a billion dollars that someones parents are about to find out about their little girls sexuality in the next few chapters.
aawww, that was sweet. it reminded me of the season in the first part with sydney, bette and t. T is the only one who can soothe B. I love your story. pls post soon.

Very sweet update, but i see trouble coming Tinas’ way.. is it time for her to pay the price of coming out??
I’m very impressed by Tina’s actions. She must feel much more comfortable with showing public affection. Kiitos!
You have our hearts on a string. Lovely update.
Another beautiful chapter. Glad Tina is coming around with the public affection. Love the bond you have created between these two. They are amazing together.
