    Author Notes: May this New Year bring you the best in life.
    Summary:
    Apprehension all around.

    “Or she could just be protecting herself too. Wanting to hold back until she speaks with you further.”

    “Yeah, maybe.” Tina conceded. “I just wish I could have reached her all those years ago. I should have made more effort to talk to her or flown over to London to see her.”

    “You told me you couldn’t because of your mom’s illness.” Shane recalled the conversation with Tina when she told her this.

    “Yes, but, I . . . “Tina rubbed her brow in regret. “I should have gone to her if she couldn’t have come to me. I should have pressed for answers and supported her if that was what she needed.”

    “You can’t change the past TK.”

    “I know. I know, Shane.” Tina groaned. “I was just so angry with her at the time and wasn’t thinking clearly. I was so stressed out about a lot of things. But I should have helped her with what she was going through.”

    “You did what you thought was the best for your mom.” Shane reminded her.

    “Yeah, I did.” Tina shook her head in resignation. “I . . .  I just keep thinking that we could have worked out the problems and still be together. I’m as much to blame for it as she was. I gave up.”

    “Well, just stay focused on why you’re there now.” Shane tried to encourage her friend. “For Ashley.”

    “Yeah, I will.” Tina was determined to be successful in her conversation with Bette. She had to be. Ashley’s life was in the balance. She’d have to put her personal feelings aside for now.

    “Ashley’s counting on it for sure.” Shane knew failure to get into the program for Ashley wasn’t an option. “You’re super persuasive and you know Bette better than anyone. You can do this TK.”

    “I sure hope so.” Tina closed her eyes and prayed for just that to happen. “I just hope she’ll listen to me. Really listen.” . . .

    Present Day Early Morning – New York City – May 2020 – The Park Hyatt Hotel – Bette’s Hotel Suite  

    “I can’t believe that slimy bitch had the nerve to show up here last night.” James huffed as he stepped inside Bette’s large hotel suite.

        • I reread this again this morning – it was that good.

          Just wanted to get it clear in my head where they both are in their minds! Ha!

          I also read the other comments and for the most part, I agree with them. But I do see a way for reconciliation, especially if they both want it. Shit happens in life and it doesn’t always go the way we want, but if two people are willing and love each other as much as these two do,anything is possible.

          Loved how Bette and Tina thought back to seeing the other the night before and how it affected each of them. They’re still so deeply in love with each other.

          So, Nicole’s out of the way and I’m thinking Tina has or will shortly, send her captain on her merry way and onto the rest of her life without the lovely TK. So, they’re both be single, available, yearning for each other and horny as hell after all these years! Seriously time to rejoin!

          Looking forward to more great chapters from you.

          I’ll probably read this again before the end of the night. And now I’m thinking that I might go back to the beginning and read it all all over again!

          • I know what you mean about trying to keep things aligned in your mind – I’ve got this story, a rewrite of FMF that I’m posting on AO3 & I’m also working on another novel for possible publication – so I always have to go back & refresh my own mind as to where I am with what story!!

            Thanks for the support – it means so much to me.

            TK will be sending the captain – Lynn – on her merry way very soon. No worries there.

            Thanks too for the kind words – I personally have reread all of Largo’s, allyemerson’s, BK’s & a few other writers postings several times. They’re all so good.

            Until next time!

    2. Hola me encanta esta historia que buen capitulo me encanto pero siempre me dejas con ganas de leer más espero el siguiente capítulo con ansias y con mas páginas .Gracias.

      • Hi Escorpion,

        Me alegra ver que recordó la historia y se tomó el tiempo de leer esta actualización.

        Sé a qué te refieres con eso de querer siempre más al final del capítulo. A mí me pasa lo mismo. ¡¡¡Quiero MÁS!!!

        Prometo publicar pronto.

        Muchas gracias.

      • Hi Vivian,

        Great to hear from you.

        So, yes, Bette’s ill & the prognosis isn’t good. But there are medical breakthroughs every day – so there’s still hope.

        I’m glad to be back & very appreciative of the support.

    4. Collins, it was fantastic to get the notification that you had posted an update. I absolutely love everything that you write because it speaks from your heart. You obviously adore these two characters and your appreciation of them rings true in every chapter and story. I’ve read all your stories and cherish them all. I often reread them when I need a Tibette fix!

      Kudos to you for sticking to your original plan for this story and to hell with what others many have disliked about it. I agree that you have presented both Bette and Tina as equals- they both have flaws and traits to appreciate and admure. It’s a testament to your vision and a demonstration that no matter how life unfolds, true love can endure and thrive once it’s ignited again.

      So, Bette’s trying to be noble again and doesn’t want to burdern Tina with her medical issue whuch seems to be pretty serious. ‘m sure as they interact together in the near future, Tina’s going to see right thru that and press Bette for answers.

      I absolutely love that you get into their heads and we get to glimpse what they’re thinking. So many of the stories that are writtren currently are all action based and never speak about what motivates the character or their actions. Thanks for giving us that in your writing.

      Looking forward with much hope for their upcoming meeting, although the title of the next chapter has me cautious- Confrontation??? I’m sure there’ll be some fireworks and lots of sexual tension. Wonder how long they’ll be able to keep their hands off each other.

      Don’t be away too long again. Thanks for the this great treat.

      • Hi Leigh,

        What a lovely comment & tribute – I am so honored by you. Thank you so much.

        I do take my writing very seriously & put all my efforts into it. I do my absolute best to make it worth the while of the reader to devote their time to read and hopefully, enjoy.

        Thanks too for your support – I appreciate your comment on that.

        You guessed right that there will indeed be fireworks when they meet – the question will be – what kind???

        And about keeping their hands off each other – well we are talking about Tibette – so not long!!!

        Thanks again & see you soon for the next update.

    5. Bette appears to have regretted losing Tina, but is not going to let that stop her from standing by and repeating what she did 15 years ago. From Bette’s s conversation with James, there appears to be no regret for her choices and she intends to continue that path. And now Bette is sick and possibly dying? It is going to be interesting how these two ever get to be a couple again.

      Thanks for the chapter….

    6. Hey there, happy to finally see an update, I missed that story and your writing !

      First of all, I don’t know why readers think that you prefer Tina over Bette, for my part, I always found in all your stories that you described the qualities, the flawns and the errors of the two characters with impartiality but everyone is free to think, you know… differently. That said, very good chapter, a little short for my liking !

      So Bette intend to not tell Tina about the past ughh … She’s so stubborn, I really want to shake her and set her “straight”. She is convinced that Tina will have a better life without her and her problems, that she has always loved her and that she is doing this for her own good and that Tina will be able to go on with her life, what a brilliant plan genius, Tina is miserable…
      Doesn’t she realize that it’s up to Tina to decide what she wants to do with her life knowingly, how can you leave someone in absolute ignorance for her own good and pretend that you love her, Tina doesn’t even know it.
      Where is Helena when we need her?

      What a mess !

      • Thank you for expressing your thoughts – they were very kind & I take them all to heart!

        Funny that you should mention the divine Ms. Helena. I think you & I are on the same page with her making a reappearance at this point in the story. Bette needs a wakeup call in a monumental way & who better to give it to her than her ole pal???

        A bit messy as you say, but it’ll get better – soon!!

        Thanks for reaching out.

        Best regards.

    7. Great that you are back – I’ve looked forward to an update for months. Happy for this one.

      I find your writing refreshing in that you DON”T take sides on what character is ‘better’ than the other. I’ve found all your stories honest and realistic in how you present Tibette and their relationship and characters. Stay true to your beliefs and how YOU want to write. I’ll definitely follow along.

      I’m sure hoping you’re planning on someone kicking Bette’s butt soon & get her to talk to Tina about everything. It’s needed.

      I’m excited for what comes next in the story and how it will all be pulled together!

      • Thanks for stating you opinion – it means so much to me! And yes, I will stay true.

        Yes, I’ve been thinking that our dear Bette needs a wakeup call or slap on the back of her head to get her to talk to Tina. Time’s a wasting & she needs to get a move on.

        There’s still lots of moving pieces, but that will settle down a bit once TK & Ashley get to London. Thanks for sticking around & much more to come.

    8. Love getting an update to this story! I really enjoyed hearing Tina’s POV talking with Shane, and Bette’s talking with James. Very clever writing, Collins.

      I can’t wait for them to confess their love for each other still and for Bette to tell Tina everything. I’m thinking it all comes out in “Confrontation”?? That’s gonna be a good chapter…

      As always I’m rooting for Ashley.

      Thanks for this update!

      • Hey Lady,

        Hope all is going well this new year for you.

        Both our gals need their confidants to bare their souls to, so, they got their chance.

        Unfortunately, everything won’t get to be discussed in the next chapter – that would be too easy & where would the angst be???

        I’ll do my best to make it a great chapter & have a few good moments for them.

        Ashley could certainly need a big break!!

        Thanks for reaching out & stay safe & healthy.

      • Hey D,

        Great to hear from you. Hope all is well in this New Year for you.

        Yeah, Bette’s a pistol alright, but the time for the truth is coming soon.

        Thanks for reaching out & stay safe & healthy.
