From the last chapter:
She waited impatiently to speak with Doctor Joanna Fielding, a pleasant British
doctor who explained the extent of Tina’s injuries. Bette nodded impatiently,
all she wanted was to see her wife, to see for herself that Tina was
alright.
“Bette, I understand you’re keen to see Tina but she’s under heavy sedation
right now. She was in a state of shock when they brought her in. We operated to
remove the bullet from her shoulder, the ribs will heal on their own in time. In
terms of her physical injuries, she’s stable, but I’m more concerned about her
mental state after what she’s experienced.”
“Please, I’ve flown for a day, I just want to see her.” Bette implored the
young doctor.
Doctor Fielding acquiesced and escorted Bette to the private room in which
Tina resided.
Bette silently made her way into the stark room. A heart rate monitor beeped
rhythmically beside the bed where Tina lay. Bette’s heart skipped a beat as she
looked over her wife, apart from the dressing on her shoulder, Tina looked
perfectly normal, as though it were any other day.
Placing her overnight back down beside the door, Bette stepped to the edge of
the bed and took Tina’s hand in her own. She ran her thumb back and forth over
Tina’s familiar skin as she watched her wife sleep.
“She’ll be out for a least another three or four hours if you wanted to get
something to eat or some rest.” The doctor offered as she looked over Tina’s
chart.
Bette just smiled politely as she pulled the guest chair over and settled in
at Tina’s side. “I’d prefer to wait here, I don’t want her waking up alone.”
“Of course” The doctor responded, “Well, I’ll check back in on Tina this
afternoon.” With that, Doctor Fielding left, closing the door behind her.
Bette reached into her pocket, retrieved her phone and dialled her
sister.
“Baby girl, we’ve been so worried, what news do you have?”
“I’m with her in the hospital, she’s going to be ok.” Bette replied
quietly.
“Oh thank God, Bette, thank God.”
“She was shot in the shoulder and has a couple of broken ribs but it’ll all
heal.” Bette said as she looked back up at Tina’s face. “Can you please let
Shane know and the others?”

HackGirl thank you for coming back to finish this story. I re-read the six chapters to refresh my memory but certainly had not forgotten it. Looking forward to the next update.
Thanks for returning. You’ve been missed. This story is different but engaging.
So glad you updated. Really interesting story. Thanks
Thanks so much for coming back to finish this story.
Great update. It’s wonderful when our longtime writers come back to us. Now if a few others would come back that would be fantastic. Bette will have her hands full trying to get Tina to go into residental therapy. Thanks for posting.
Work will likely have to take a back seat in Bette’s life for a few days until she convinces Tina to get the help that she needs. As always, really glad to see a post from you, HG. Thanks for the chapter. :)
How the hell did I miss this story? Great and different, tnx for update!
It is going to take longer than a few days for Bette to convince Tina to go to rehab. Thanks for the update. You know I love your writing.
Well hello stranger…I saw that you commented on my story, (up at a ridiculous hour…don’t know why) then I went and looked up what you had written lately. I was about to write to you to say “where’s chapter six”. I literally logged on to message you about this story. Eerie. You must have felt the universe contract in its request for a continuation…
The missing returns; thought we lost you thrilled to have you back
