She continued on. “I wanted you to have these flowers because all beautiful women should get flowers. And I wanted you to have the roses because of how much I love you. The purple one is a hyacinth. It represents my apology for not being at the meeting today.”
“Thank you, T.”
“No, Bette. Thank you. Thank you for coming into my life. I love you enough to be honest with you.”
Bette felt her stomach drop. Tina’s tone and words were scaring here.
Tina continued on. “I am still not ready to come out to the world or my family and I need you to know that.”
Bette could hold her tongue no longer. “Tina, I am not asking you to come out. I know it’s hard for you. I’m not trying to push you.”
Tina sighed. “Please don’t panic. I’m not breaking up with you or anything. I just want to get it in the open. I just want to let you know how I’m feeling.”
“Okay. Okay. I’m listening.”
“Bette, I wanted to take you out tonight because we never really go out. I’ve never really “dated” you. I’ve never treated you like a queen. But you are my queen, Bette. I want to show you that as much as I fear everyone finding out, I still love you and value you. I want to treat you like the queen you are to me. I wanted to pick you up and bring you flowers and hold the door for you. Do you understand?”
The dark-haired woman nodded, fighting against the tears that stood in her eyes. “I understand,” she whispered.
Tina stared deeply into Bette’s dark brown pools and said, “I wish I could get on television and announce us to the world, Bette. I wish I could be happy and go to every QA event with you and be out and proud and fearless with you. But I’m not there, Babe. I wish I could be. I’m just not there yet. And I wanted to let you know where I am and in spite of where I am, I can’t see a future without you by my side.”
Bette blinked and a lone tear slipped down her cheeks. “I love you, T. I love you so much.”

So glad Tina explain herself to Bette. Of course Bette would always forgive Tina. Hopefully Tina will find a way to have an open relationship with Bette and not have her family reject her.
So what I was looking for!!! Tina is still somewhat contradicting herself, but I do know and been there with loving someone but still not there to truly love them. But I am SOOOOOO GLAD she opened up to Bette and showed Bette how much she love and value her! Bette definitely deserve it! Great chap as always, and thanks for a great treat to start off along work week!! Please Post SOOON!!
beautiful chapter…it’s nice to see tina trying…it will be hard for them but i believe they can do anything because of their love
This is wonderful as always. I missed this story a lot when you stopped writing it.
I will give it to Tina in this chapter. Finally she opens up to Bette! I hope they continue to whisper!
I’m glad that Tina was able to tell Bette how she was feeling. belive that they can make it and will.
Awwww MTS, I was able to catch up with this fic, and I must say you have crafted a fabulous piece of writing here. Young love can be so tenacious, so strong, so unparalleled to anything else. I can completely understand Tina’s fears of her families rejection. They are valid and they are real to her. She is a young girl who probably still remains quite dependent on them. If she doesn’t have the strength now, to make changes based on what SHE wants and no other influences, maybe one day she just might right? I think when you get past your teens and into your twenties, you become more independent and able to think for yourself and not be dictated by what others think. I found myself more empowered as a woman, a daughter, a sister, etc as I hit thirty. Now at 38 I can honestly say that the decisions I made in my life, I made with no thought to whether I was going to feel rejection from family and friends. Did I lose some friends? Yep, I lost a couple. Did I lose family? Yep, I lost my father, and perhaps one other. However, what I gained in return, a woman in my life who loves me beyond anything I could ever imagine, and whom I love in return on a level I never imagined could happen, I WON THE LOTTERY. So…..my wish for Tina is that she allow herself the courage to make decisions as a young adult, independent from her parents. I love the honesty that she offered. Bravo!!! Please post soon.
this was wonderful… i love when they talk things out… IC should take notes… you know i have always loved your stories… PPS
Very sweet chapter. :D
aaaah, nice chapter. Good to see Tina so sweet and loving.
Gee, that was really sweet. Thank you.
MTS I just love it when they’re all gooey in your story; u have a way of doing it perfectly. Thx for shout out. PPS
Note to myself, a closeted girlfriend is not such a bad idea after all…
What a quandary on one hand I struggle with Tina’s existence. I think we all have been there. My parents kept me in line (some would say that it was impossible) by impressing on me how proud they were of me and my accomplishments. I always wanted to be the good girl and impress them to gain their approval. Coming out is nothing less then a major disappointment that I prolonged way too long. It seems that Tina is coming to terms with you only have today and cherish it with this chapter. Thanks for giving it to us. Bette’s whimper about will we make it scares me a bit. Second guessing and doubt can do them in. But I wait for you to tell us. Great chapter.
:S “I love to love you” that’s so sweet… and yea, they’re so lucky to have found The One so early in life… and hope their happy moment will carry on ;)
Glad Tina was able to explain herself and Bette was able to accept the apology as it was given. Hopefully, in time, Tina will really come to terms with herself and allow love to lead the way. PPS
really enjoyed this chapter. its all about taking steps. thanks.
Sydney lurks in the background but Tina confessing her true love for Bette blocks her at every turn. It’s early days but they are ment to be. Tina needs to look into financial aid in case her parents make it hard for her when she comes out to them that way she is prepared for the worst. Hopefully they wont take it too badly.
I’m glad Tina’s no show didn’t turn into something ugly. But as I’ve reading your story, I’m wondering are you ever going to bring Shane into the mix? Good Job.
It takes a lot of work to have a successful relationship. It is not always coming up roses but hard times are always just around the corner. Tina is taking that first step with Bette and is willing to work towards taking more steps. I love how Bette, even though discouraged by Tina not being there at times, is able to put some of her pain behind her.
That was beautiful and sweet!
