Tina turned around and said, I thought you were asleep
No, just lying here thinking. I packed your things. You just need to add your toiletries and youre all set.
Youre amazing, Bette. Thanks for doing this. Now, YOU are the wind beneath MY wings. Bette opened her eyes and smiled, remembering a night not long ago when she said those very words to Tina.
No problem., she said.
Tina started her after-shower ritual of lotioning her fair skin and proceeded to dress for bed. Bette turned on her side and faced her roommate, her eyes following Tinas movements in the candle light. So, when are you going to pack?, Tina asked Bette.
Already did. Im not taking that much. I left half of my closet at home., she said. When it seemed as if Tina was finished dressing, Bette asked, All done?
Tina smiled. Yep.
Good. Now come get into bed with me. Ive already set my clock, so were all ready for tomorrow.
Tina shuffled over to Bettes side of the room and slid under the covers, backing into Bettes chest. She adjusted herself and Bette asked, You comfortable?
More comfortable than Ive ever been. You are too good to me.
I just want you to relax. You dont need anymore stress today.
Thank you, Bette.
You are more than welcome. I would do anything for you, T.
They were quiet for a moment when Bette said, T..if you are pregnant, you know you do have options.
I know..I just cant figure this out right now. I am not ready to be anybodys mother. As evidenced tonight, I can barely take care of myself. I also dont think I could go through with having an abortion. It just seems so final.
What about adoption?, asked Bette.
I thought about that. But I dont think I could have a baby growing in me for 9 months and just give it away. I dont think I could do that.
Are you going to tell Eric? asked Bette.
Well, I was going to talk to him about it tonight, until he flipped the script and dumped me. I dont know. It depends on what I decide to do.
T? Im just playing devils advocate here..but dont you think he has a right to know? I mean, it is his baby, too.
Bette, the rational side of me understands that. The emotional side of me just got dumped by somebody I didnt even want. Right now, the sides cant come to an agreement.
Bette smiled at the analogy. Okay, you have a point. But think about it.
I will. Tina replied. They were quiet again and then Tina said, Im going to talk to my mom about this when I get home.
Bette was surprised. She didnt have a mother and hadnt even considered Tinas daughter-mother relationship. You sure?, she asked.
Yeah. I need to get this off my chest. Ill wait until after Thanksgiving to tell her, though.
Youll call me if you need me?, asked Bette.
IF? It isnt an IF, its more like a WHEN. You keep me grounded Bette. You really are my best friend.
Bette smiled and pulled Tina closer. Youre my best friend, too.
The best friends drifted off to sleep and 5:30am arrived way too soon. They left the room hurriedly and sooner than she wanted, Bette found herself standing outside of another car, bidding farewell to another woman she loved. She was teary-eyed as she hugged Tina close. I dont know why Im so emotional. Ill see you in like 3 days.
Tina was teary-eyed as well. Ill blame my emotions on raging pregnancy hormones, she said with a small laugh.
Bette chuckled. I love you, T. Call me if you need anything at all., said Bette.
I love you, too. Ill miss you., said Tina.
Within moments, Bette was watching Tina walk away, hiding her tears behind a pair of black Dolce & Gabana sunglasses. When she could see her no longer, Bette climbed behind the wheel of her car and sped off towards San Diego.

I don’t know what else to say except that I love this story and find myself looking forward to coming home just so I can check and see if there’s a new chapter! Thank you and please post again soon!? ;)
I look for updates on your story constantly. It just keeps getting better and better. One of the best B/T beginning stories. Don’t make us wait long for the next part. And can I make a request? Get rid of Sidney already Bette and Tina are meant for each other…lol. This is about as stressful as watching Tina and Bette so through things on the actual show. Keep up the amazing story!
Excellent chapter. I feel bad for both B&T.Please post soon.
Great story please let Tina and Bette work this out..Thanks for a great story..
That was a great update!
yeah, I like.
Damn…I wish my first college roommate was like T or B! I love this story..thanks for the update.
whats gonna happen now between bette and tina????i was kinda hoping that it was a false alarm that tina would go to the doctor and the doctor would say that the reason her period is late is because of stress that she has been experiencing …….i kno its a little far fetched but it was hope………. please post soon like today lol
I’m with everyone else on this one…your fic is awesome and i cannot wait for another update….this is one of the best B?T beginnings that i have read…thanx
This is just a great story…I look everyday for this story and i love it
I’m off to bed now with happy thoughts of Bette and Tina. Great update.
This story brings out the sappy romantic in me. I think I’m addicted..please give me my next fix soon!!!
I live for these updates. Please keep up this amazing work!
I love how they are still there for each other even with drama and their feeling for each other. Sweat chapter.
Each chapter keeps drawing me in. You are a fine storyteller. It is addictive, complex romantic, emotional, and best of all unique. I am hopelessly hooked, so like the masses posting here, I too hope you induge us again… soooon. Thank you.
Can’t have the author of the story that I love feeling shaky…[confiscated remaining Red Bull and replaced with a soothing Chamomille tea]…btw, love the sweetness between B&T!
I sense a true friendship growing.
Still, there’s a lot of drama going on in that little dorm room. A little much for the first semester of college.
Thanks!
Good God my mother would be the LAST person on Earth I would tell if I were pregnant! Good thing that’s not happening anytime soon…I wish the baby could be Bette’s! Unfortunately that’s not how things work. Anyway I love this story, please post again soon.
Excellent chapter. This is gonna be great and now can’t wait to see what gonna had happen at home when Tina tell her mother. Please post soon the next one, thank you!
Ok, I can’t take it. Where’s 19? :)
You really no how to write. I hook to this like a baby is to a bottle.
You are quite gifted! I am optimistic for you. Maintain your energy (healthily). Demand is on the up-rise!! we need you around. Ever thought about quitting your day job? :)
i love it.. great chapter… please let b n t be together they are so happy.. :)
I like Red Bull. I also like this story–makes me wish I had dormed and went away.
this is truly a great chapter. It will be interesting to see how Tinas mother is going to react. Thanks for a great story.
Okay I am still in denial because I am thinking the test is so wrong. Your writing is off the hook and the pace is awesome. Thanks for the update.
“You keep me grounded Bette” It was evident that Tina really does believe that b/c when Bette was playing devils advocate, Tina was calm in her responses. LOVED THAT PART!
I love this story!! There can’t be a baby! I’m still hoping it’s a false alarm! I know, I know 99% sure! I need more!! Great Job post again soon!!
The plot thickens with yet another crisis. B&T seem to be having more than their fair share of poo sandwiches. What is it with teenagers and unprotected sex? Babies having babies. I feel confident that our very talented storyteller will find a solution for our favorite couple. Great chapter.
loveed it post soon
