The Roommates: Chapter 34
Tina was too far away to see Bettes tears or see her body tremble under the intense emotions she felt, but she could tell by the way Bettes shoulders dipped and the stiffness in her posture that Bette was upset. Tinas eyes drifted from Bette to Sidneys stunned expression and found her feet carrying her to the love of her life before she even knew she was moving.
As she drew nearer, Tina could hear Bettes emotional soliloquy. Do you know that she walked out on me this morning? My relationship with her is probably over now because Im sitting here with you trying to do the right thing. Because I was thinking of you.
Bette was now sobbing. Every emotion shed felt in the last few days was spilling over and she couldnt contain her feelings. I was trying to do the right thing when I pushed Tina away to be committed to you. I was thinking of you, Sidney. I could have been with her weeks ago, but instead, I tried to give you everything I could. But Im not thinking of you?
Sidney was in agony. She wanted so badly to reach out and hold Bette close. She wanted to wipe away her tears and apologize for whatever shed said to start this emotional breakdown. Sidney hadnt seen Bette like this before. She wanted to soothe her wounds, but she was afraid of what Bette would do if she touched her. So, she just tried to listen and let Bette work though her hurt. Sidney was so wrapped up, she didnt see Tina approach.
Why is it that Im never enough? I try and try and try to do the right thing and I always seem to ***** up. I just cant get it right. I tried to be true to youthat was wrong. I tried to be honest with you.you hit me. I tried to end it with youTina hates me. I try to give you closureIm wrong., said Bette, tears streaming down her cheeks.
As she spoke, a pair of loving arms suddenly wrapped themselves around her shoulders and held her close. Bette knew this touch, this scent, this woman. Her eyes closed and her body relaxed against Tinas embrace. The love of her life hugged her tightly from behind, nuzzling her head against Bettes soft brown hair, whispering soothing words in her ear.
Sidney was glued to her seat as she watched this scene unfold.
Tinas eyes were closed as she rocked Bette slowly, seeming to absorb her pain. Im never enough, T. Why is it that Im never enough? I can never get it right., she sobbed, her body still shaking.
Tina moved to Bettes side and soon she and Bette were facing each other, their knees meeting as they both straddled the bench seat of the lunch table. Tina drew Bettes head to her chest and whispered sweet words to her as she ran her hands lovingly down her back, slowly rocking this broken spirit from side to side.
The love and tenderness in this embrace was hard to miss. Tina had instinctively known that Bette needed her. She had known that Bette was upset and hurting. Bette had instinctively known Tinas touch. Her heart had been crying for this beautiful woman and Tina had answered her call.
Sidney realized that both women were oblivious to her presence and she slowly began to move away. As she watched this scene one final time before leaving the room, Sidney finally understood. She finally got it. Tina really was Bettes other half. Tina was where Bette belonged. The finality of her relationship with Bette finally hit her and a few tears fell from her eyes as she realized what she would miss. But Sidney had seen it with her own eyes. There was no room for her. Tina owned Bettes heart and she couldnt compete with that.

SEE YA HOOCHIE SIDNEY LOVE THE STORY
Wow MTS, there’s so much drama to deal with in this chapter. My heart sank more than once. You write so beautifully. Thank you so much for finally bringing closure for Sidney and that whole mess in such a touching way. I’m glad that Tina got over it and knew that Bette needed her. Thank you so much for writing, your story is the first one I always look for. Can’t wait for your next one!
I’m so glad Tina went there – the start of a relationship can be so difficult. Awesome chapter!
Phenominal! I love it!
I’m speechless…. that was perfect and I’m sitting here witht the silliest smile on my face!! lol Can’t wait for more and thank you so much for this chap…. and from now on I just might have to read this in a cold bath ;) Thanx for the suggestion lol
absolutely poetic, you’ve outdone yourself. If this was an opera, this chapter would be a brilliantly painful crescendo. amazing.
amazing, i have been loving this story from the beginning and i can’t wait to see what directions you will take with it to telling thier parents and furthering their emotional connection to one another. bravo!! bravo!!
Wonderful chapter. I’m glad Sidney understand and walk away, now Bette and Tina time to have talk and let the love began. Please post soon, thank you!
This is how all these stories should go. Tell me if I am wrong but is this not a Bette & Tina Fanficion. If so or even if not Bette & Tina Forever,no bette & Shane or Bette & Jenny I Mean really can you really see it? So keep up the fantastic story and keep me & the rest of B&T Fans happy. Keep up the good work.
“…a few tears fell from her eyes as she realized what she would miss.” – Great coda.
I hope B&T can carry on from here with trust and love.

Great chapter! I enjoy reading your works each time I’m stressed. I hope you’ll continue writing! ;)
Okay, some writers do great descriptions. Some are masters of dialogue. Some have a knack for conveying insights of human behavior. Some write gripping drama. Some are so incredibly creative they take you away. And some write amazing sex scenes.
And then there’s you. MTS, I feel like you’re All That! I so love this story and how well you convey it. Always a pleasure to read your chapters. Thank you!
I can’t believe I fell behind! Argh, the pressure.
