As Tina drove herself to Bette’s house, she replayed the evening’s events in her head and realized that it may have looked like something was going on. But Bette has to trust her if this thing between them is going to work.

She pulled into the driveway, ignoring the darkness within the house and knocked on the door, no answer. Not one to be put off she continued knocking until finally Bette opens the door, having just changed into her P.J’s.

"Tina it’s late and I have to work tomorrow!"

"I won’t be long, I just couldn’t leave things like that! I admit things may have looked a little suspicious but you have to learn to trust me."

"I want to but I don’t know. I just need a little time to think about think about it."

"Look Bette, think about this, I’m in show business, the media is always looking for a story. They don’t care if it’s true or not. Which is why trust is so important, when a story comes out with me in it, I need to know you trust me to know better! This is one of the reasons why I used to avoid relationships. So, think about that and call me what you know what you want."

"Thank you for your honesty and I will take everything into consideration. I will call you this week."

"Fair enough."

With that Tina turned and made her way home. While Bette made her way to bed not wanting to think about anything tonight.

The following week was a busy week for both ladies. Bette was fine as long as she was at work but once the work day had ended and she was home, she missed Tina terribly. She believed Tina when she said it was all innocent. Maybe she was feeling insecure because she was caught off guard and she hadn’t heard from Tina all week and when she did Tina had given her the brush off. Also, considering Tina’s comment regarding being in show business and tabloids making something out of nothing, Bette took the time to think things through, as she had promised.

As for Tina, she thought of Bette often. She almost called a couple of times. She was thinking that the old saying "you don’t know what you have until it’s gone", was a true statement. After all she had been having second thoughts but the idea of losing Bette quickly brought her back to her senses.
