‘This I didn’t expect.’
‘I was in the plane and I felt like I was shackled and I could barely breath. God the panic…I was about to face Renee’s state which till then I could only picture, Paris and you – us, or what was left of it. The unknown… Everything that was gone or about to be gone. And I had no clue how to deal with any of it.’
‘You looked so strong when you came in.’
‘Yeah strong…’ Shaking her head she halts next to the couch. ‘I wanted to run away as soon as I entered that hospital room. The look of her in that bed… The look on your face…’ She presses her lips and quickly takes the next card, obviously wanting to move away from the topic as fast as possible. ‘Ha! This is an easy one. Which of us has a better sense of direction?… That would be me of course.’
‘Really? Do I have to remind you about Bilbao?’ I tease remembering how we lost GPS signal and got completely lost in Basque country. We got into a quarrel about the directions, she was certain she took the right turn and she couldn’t possibly be wrong about that. We drove around in circles for hours, through the mountains and dead-end streets, we had to go back so many times until she finally gave up when she spotted a bar, in a small, romantic hamlet, where the coffee was amazing and soothed everything. Very soon we started laughing about the whole debacle, spending hours in that tiny bar, getting lost into each other, forgetting all about where we were heading to or why. We ended up spending two nights in that tiny village, with only one inn with five rooms, instead of going to Bilbao as planned and with that we missed the art show that Bette was supposed to attend.
‘One time Tee, one time.’
‘Uhuh, we never arrived there.’
‘I beg to defer.’
‘Yeah…the year after, when I was driving.’ I laugh at the memory. The year after we went back and stayed for a long weekend, having the time of our lives. After attending the art show we ended up at a Aste Nagusia party. We slow danced whole night cheek to cheek until the sun came up and we couldn’t stand on our legs anymore. I was so in love.

Thank you for the chapter!
Honestly i don’t see how all their talks and meeting with each other can help to fix something between them if all of the ending the same – one of them leaving in anger.
Maybe therapy?
I don’t comment much on this story but wow what a emotinal hard chapter was this for them.
Bette made a attemp to communicate by using cards with deep questions on it that they had to give honest answers to it. It broke my heart to see how Bette is deeply hurt by the betrayel of Tina, how she had that meltdown but she gave honest anwers. Maybe this really opens Tina’s eye on how deeply hurt Bette is by her infidelity. Maybe this meltdown was needed so they can really try to repair their relationship. Give Bette some space, she will come back or contact Tina. It seems hopeless but i have faith they will come back stronger than ever as a couple, it just take time, time they have to take both, don’t rush things.
Looking forward to the next chapter!
I haven’t commented much as I don’t know what to say as my feelings and emotions are always a little raw but I am still reading.
Thanks for the post

Tough chapter. They keep getting stuck in a never-ending loop when they DONT go and capture, tackle if necessary the one who is running.
Dang. Bette’s intentions were good, but may I suggest Twister next time? That Bette chose to hide the cards with questions about cheating should tell Tina all she needs to know about the way forward. She has to step up and own it. Say she is sorry again and again until Bette believes her. Say she will spend the rest of her life making amends if she has to. She needs to be on her knees, ugly crying, listening to the pain she caused kind of sorry. It’s time Kennard. Own it. Bette’s behavior, no matter how awful, does not justify her cheating. And for the love, they both need to stop running. I love this story. It’s intriguing in its heartbreak. Bette clearly knows her part in the demise of the relationship, she has suffered enough…
There are very few stories in all my fandom years that have wrecked me so bad after each chapter. This story is marvelous, heartbreaking but so beautiful. I created an account here just to tell you that I hope you will find it in yourself to give it an ending someday. Thanks a lot for sharing it with us.
