    Author Notes:

    Bette in NYC and Tina in Sunny Los Angeles. Life moves on…the question is, will their lives move on together?

    At 5:42 am on Friday morning, Bette stared at her computer screen, her eyes unfocused and, her mind steeped in thought. Fundamental to all humans is an emotional filter between what the mind knows and understands and the reaction that should follow. Were it not for this filter, we human beings would function like robots with certain inputs requiring various outputs.

    Bette Porter wasn’t a robot. And as such, her emotional filter had a hard time processing just what response Tina’s “Eric Sighting” should elicit. She knew she was loved and wanted by Tina. That was never in question. And logically, if Bette were to function in the robot world, her knowledge of Tina’s love and devotion would trump any appearance of Eric Anderson and Bette’s reaction to his sudden reemergence would flow freely from her mind, down through her slender fingertips, across the internet pipeline, to be read and appreciated by Tina, who would at once smile and breathe a sigh of relief at Bette’s light-hearted prose.

    But once again, Bette Porter wasn’t a robot.

    Bette was a flesh and blood 19 year old with 19 year old thoughts, wants, needs, and a 19 year old emotional filter. And her filter kept looping around in circles trying to find the right output with which to type across the keyboard, send over the internet pipeline, and be read by Tina’s eager eyes.

    Was it right for her to feel threatened?

    She knew it wasn’t right. She knew she had nothing to worry about. And even at 19 years of age, she knew that Tina belonged to her. There was something special about their connection that neither one of them could ever truly verbalize, but which both women clearly understood.

    Tina Kennard belonged to Bette Porter and Bette Porter to Tina Kennard.

    And despite this innate knowledge of their unique bond, Bette Porter was filled with worry on that Monday morning at 5:42am. She read and re-read Tina’s email, her mind creating visuals of the previous evening seen through Tina’s eyes.

    There was a chance it wasn’t Eric at all. It had been dark after all. Maybe it was just an Eric-favoring stranger.

    And then again, maybe it wasn’t.

    3. welcome back, you know I am always waiting for your updates… So now we have the Tibette individual temptation. Thats ok, I believe in our favorite couple. It will work itself out!

    4. I’m glad you’re back! And I’m glad you are well. Now, on to the story. I can understand Tina’s reaction to Mark. She may be attracted to him if she is already worried how she would react should they see each other again. I just hope she don’t act on it. Hold in there Tina, Bette is coming home. Thanks for posting. :)

    7. I just caught up with this story and I really like it. Just hope these two don’t have nay problems to deal with by being apart and lonely for each other. They really need to see each other very soon. Great chapter. PPS

    8. You posted! Yaaaayyy!!! Wow! We were so happy to see you updating this amazing story, which has always been close to our hearts. Thanks! You can’t imagine how excited we were to find this interesting chapter about our young B&T fav couple! Hmmm However, we see trouble in paradise, as clouds of uncertainty move B&T to turbulent waters. Therefore, we are going to fasten our seatbelts and accept the ride you want to take us along. We know that, deep inside, you are a true TiBetter, like us, and you will always find a way for them to be together. We really missed you! PPS Lucero & Marsha (JC’s Salsa Aunties)

    11. Now don’t u go breaking our gyrlz up or keeping them separated by trips to Europe with Sydney or anything neither is secure enuff in the relationship 4 that sort of thing yet. Get Bette on the plane to T for the weekend. That’s the right track. PPS

    12. This is not boding well for Bette and Tina. Usually with these type of situations the romance ends in due time. I sure hope that is not the case for Bette and Tina.

    14. I just read this whole story right from the beginning of roommates through to here in the past couple of days, and i have to say, it’s awesome! i love the way you capture the emotions of two young women so perfectly, and it’s interesting to see how they’re dealing with the hard seperation. i can’t wait for ou to continue!

    16. welcome back…i sincerely hope that B&T will survive anything and will be together soon…when Bette flies to LA, i hope there’s no surprises on Tina’s end

    19. This is another one of my favorite stories. After all that Bette and Tina has been through to be together it seems like forces out of there control is putting a wedge between them. I can’t wait till they reconnect and remember the love they have can outlast the distance between them. looking forward to the next chapter coming soon hopefully :)

    22. Wow, I’m so glad you resurrected this story, MTS. Imo, this is one of the best long-running B&T fics in this site. And your post fell on my birthday. So thank you for adding a cherry to my already decadent cake. :> But you know what, I second Eddy’s drama fatigue. Yeah, life is hard enough that when I get the chance to pop in here, I can’t help but favor lighthearted, sugar-coated B&T stuff with a semblance of substance. I’m really worried about Tina’s reaction to the attention from men that she’s getting. OMG, please, please, no retreading of S3 storylines. Not to mention Bette’s cloud of doubt, her deep conversation with Sidney and her failure to communicate with Tina. Shit, they are growing as individuals but growing apart. If I’m not mistaken, this is usually the recipe for relationship disaster. And that’s really sad. *sigh* I’m going to read the bunch of sweet chapters you’ve written in the past to drive away the worries in my head. Thank you again for this update, MTS, and please post whenever you can. Cheers! :>

    23. Welcome back!! I was so happy(doing a happy dance) when I saw your post. I love this story so much. I know there will always be drama in life but in our Tibette world, things do work out in favor of our girls. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us, your loyal fans. Post real soon, please.
