He was sweet and gentle. Tina warmed to him immediately. “Bette was in awe of your support,” he said.
Tina swallowed thickly and nodded. Hoping that all was not lost between her and Bette. “Is she available?” she asked.
Maxwell smiled before moving back to his desk and checking the electronic calendar. “She’s available. I know she’d be glad to see you. Why don’t you go ahead to her office? The door’s closed, but just give a little knock.”
Tina’s brow furrowed. “Are you sure?”
He nodded. “The way her eyes glow when you come around, I’m sure she’d be happy to see you.”
Tina wore a mid-calf length, dark blue dress that had a mid-thigh slit. She was wearing tall heels and a black, trench dress coat. A set of white pearls hung from her neck and her hair was in ringlets, pulled back into an updo. With her heart racing she knocked gingerly on Bette’s office door.
“Come in,” she heard.
Tina stepped inside, closing the door behind her.
Bette looked adorable. She was dressed down for the day in a long-sleeved gray shirt and chinos with sneakers. Her dark curly hair was pulled back in a ponytail. The pretty tan skin now flushed with a soft pink as she looked up, meeting Tina’s timid eyes.
“Hi, Bette,” said Tina.
Bette couldn’t help the smile that eased across her lips. No matter what version of the universe she was in, Tina owned her heart. Tina was her match. The key that unlocked her spirit. The key was standing right in front of her and Bette’s throat went dry. Her eyes watered.
“What are you doing here?” she whispered.
Tina looked at her, wanting to rush to her and pull Bette into her arms. But she restrained herself and stood tall by the door, her hands in the pockets of her long, dark coat.
“You’re avoiding me again,” said Tina.
Bette looked at her, her eyes wide and child-like. “I didn’t know what else to do.”
Tina shook her head. “You couldn’t think of anything else but to avoid me? Don’t you know how I feel about you? This is tearing me apart. You’re so close but still so far away.”

Wow ok.. there has to be a way out of the marriage and I dont see how he can take every thing.. and there this thing with international banking.. lol.. and I’m sure he has fooled around on her. This whole thing seems to be dragging with them both. Cant keep putting Tina off and expect her to just be there. And Tina needs to make a move. Lol ok great chapter thank you..
Oh I like Chris Anderson! Yes, baby, show ’em what you are capable of! ;-)
Just great, MTS. Pivotal moment for Tina, I’d say.
Good for both of them that Tina stood her ground and told Bette outright that she was avoiding her. Bette is still so shaken up :( She probably needs Tina to lead their relationship.
Thanks for reminding us: “Her 19 year old self was not prepared to……” Exactly.
Looking forwad to the next chapter.
cheers
Oh what a tangle web we weave, when first we plan to deceive!
A simple command by Tina’s Dad to send Henry to pay a visit to Bette, and the trusts Bette extends to Tina/Chris Anderson is blown sky high in a million pieces.
Yep, get it sorted Tina, don’t leave Bette doing all the work.
Thanks for posting, more soon please!

Thanks for the update!
So, we soon will may see how Tina resolve her situation with Henry? Looking forward to read it.
Has Tina decided that she really wants Bette? Bette has been very consistent. She has always wanted to be with Tina. The problem is this attack. Until Bette get the proper therapy, I do not see that she can be intimate with Tina. Tina even though she knows Bette’s problem is being rather slow to make her her mind what is important for her future. Tina needs to get advice and a plan. Even if things do no work out with Bette, she knows that at some point she will be wanting the company of a woman. So she must free herself of Henry and her family in order to have any potential of living a happy life.
Bette is going to be crushed when she finds out that Tina has been lying. It will be most difficult to build trust when she has withheld so much information about herself. And if she finds out in some other way than from Tina herself, it will be more devastating than the attack from Sidney.
Bette should not visit Sidney while she is in the treatment. Consult with her doctors and send a letter of encouragement to work hard at her treatments but with a clear message that the relationship is over. Bette needs to have more therapy more so for her trauma than for her addictions. If she can get this trauma situation under control, it will perhaps reduce the desire to drink or use drugs.
