“Fuck you!”
Bette exhaled, keeping her temper in check. “Jodi, please.” She took a step closer.
“No! No!” The smaller woman backed away. “Fuck you!” The words were both spoken and signed. With equal force and emphasis.
The evening had quickly degenerated into screaming and tears. Jodi’s screaming. Bette’s crying. Jodi’s crying.
Upon arrival, Bette rented a car. Since this was a work night for Jodi, Bette knew that Jodi’s plans would include sleeping in a tent.
The debate for Bette was ongoing all the way to the lodge. Should she contact Jodi or wait until the next day, and going to visit her at the site. The benefit to talking tonight was it’d be over. The downside, it’d be over. For real.
The other downside was that Jodi had a lot of power tools at the site.
Okay, so maybe that wasn’t a serious consideration, but Bette didn’t want Jodi to be so upset as to accidentally harm herself.
Anyway, she arrived and checked in. Then she messaged Jodi and waited. Sitting, tense, waiting. When the message arrived, Jodi said she’d be arriving soon.
That led to the true moment of truth. Upon seeing the woman who she had so recently reconnected with as a lover, could Bette really break things off?
Breaking things off was the right thing. But part of the act screamed to her that she was just like her father, taking her pleasure without regard for who the act hurt. That thought was disturbing.
Part of her thoughts were tinged with annoyance at Tina for waiting to say something.
But Tina had been saying things, the right things, just not speaking directly. Had Tina spoken directly about her feelings, would that have made a difference?
Why was winning Jodi back such a goal? Not that there was anything wrong with winning, but still.
When Jodi entered the room, Bette could feel her courage flagging. She hoped that this wouldn’t show, but Jodi asked several times if she was okay.
Upon repeated insistence that all was fine, Bette asked if they could talk now. Jodi countered that she’d rather go to dinner and talk there.

If Jodie had really loved Bette it would have been different. Bette in later might have fallen madly in love with Jodie, This was just a stopping off place for both of them. Just a rest stop on the highway of life. thanks
Yeh home to Tina, dont know if I have mentioned I love this story
Gotta get back do I doGotta get back do I do I doGotta get back do I doButterflies take control mewhy’s this airplane go so slowlyFlutter faster take me home to you
I loved Plan B, anyone who hasn’t read it should, one of the best stories on the site.
I liked it but I think she should have told Jodi that it was Tina, I guess I feel Jodi deserved the truth.
Ditto on Plan B – I think I’ll go reread it – it was awesome. I love your writing then and NOW ( hint hint)

Others have said it, and I agree…(when you are late in reading, it is sometimes difficult to have an original thought), but I think that Bette should go home and take her time with Tina. To rush in too quickly after the bloodbath they have been through would be disasterous. Also, I think Bette should have been honest with Jodi, sure it would suck to know she is leaving her for an ex, but there might be comfort in knowing it never really had a chance due to the previous relationship. Psued…thanks for your dedication to this story! It is truely enjoyable and I have come to look forward to it daily…write on!!!
I totally agree w/funnyone’s clarity.
well, who needs all this jobette drama…bye-bye birdy, i mean jodi…hello, tina
Pseud, That was tense and awkward but break-ups often are. I do sense that Bette is now following her heart and beginning to realize who comletes her mind, body and soul. Bette wnats a lover for the long haul. She needs to belong to a family unit. Tina is there for her and now ready to do what it will take to reunite and rekindle their romantic relationship. All partnerships require hard work and compromise. This time apart has focussed the gals onto who and what will work for them. Now just get Bette home and the fireworks to launch. Many thanks for sharing this awesome adventure with me. Your Loyal Fan.
You made a good choice in having Bette break up w/Jodi face to face. From what we’ve seen in the show its consistant with Bette’s character _not_ to do it over the phone. (Candace, Nadia) But I don’t envy her doing two cross-country flights in one day. ;-)
Well, Bette handled that a bit more supinely than I thought she would. Tina =/= “no one”, and breaking up with Jodi was certainly the right thing to do, cos B wasn’t truly in love with her. Why let a relationship limp along, just for the sake of having “won”? Tina challenged Bette to fix it, and she’s done that, sorta. She only had to break something along the way. Ah well, B’s going home, anyway… We’ll see what’s waiting for her there. Splendid, pseud. Thanks
better not be ‘the end’….liking this story so much especially now Jodi’s history….
Jodi maybe gone(good thing). I do not think Bette will go straight to Tina. But what do I know. I think she neeeds time to herself and with her daughter. Thanks PPS
That was rather blunt wasn’t it? Maybe Bette should have told Jodi that it was Tina and that it was always Tina. But either way I liked this. Bette needs to take some time with herself before she goes head tilt after Tina. Great as always.
While this probably clears the path back to Tina (the longest journey begins with the first step), even if that weren’t so, good riddance to Jodi. An utterly pathetic liason of which Bette should eternally be ashamed. Well, OK, so maybe that’s a bit strong, but I think I’ve already made clear my feelings that Jodi was no one for anyone desiring an actual relationship instead of a fuck at her (Jodi’s) convenience.
I might be first. Hmm. Well. I’m glad its over. I hope Bette processes a little on the way home. I can’t wait for her to get with Tina.. but I don’t want her to be confused when she does it. Ohh, yeah, again, really glad she finally dumped Jodi. PPS.
Glad Bette finally got rid of Jodi, honestly. Now to handle things WELL with Tina… and actually make a good go of it.
Oh yes! Bette made the right decision.
just gotta love intense, ugly situations. but ive not liked the jodi thingy in the first place, soo… let the game begin. thanks
Alright Bette now go home to your woman!
