Uncharted Territory
‘When did you become so wise?’
She gives a throaty laugh and looks up at me with the sun caught in her eyes. ‘When did you become so cheeky?’
I join her infectious joyfulness but then turn serious again. ‘I’m getting there I promise.’ I say tucking a curl behind her ear. ‘It’s just.. you know that lingering fear, do you have that too? That unconscious fear of fucking things up again, one way or the other… it doesn’t seem to go away.’
‘I do all the time. Sometimes it grabs me by the throat and I can’t sleep. I lay awake thinking about all the things that can possibly go wrong. But then I force myself to think about little things.. you taught me that. For example the other day, when you fell asleep in my lap on the couch, or the other night when we were sitting on the balcony talking for hours and then we just continued sitting there enjoying the sunrise or …. ’
‘Why don’t you call me?’
‘When?’ She asks kissing the tip of my nose.
‘When you can’t sleep.’
‘Because there are moments that I don’t need another reminder that we don’t live together.’ She sighs and lies back on the blanket, her hand as a pillow under her head. Behind us the milky waves continue to roll onto the shore. The milky white color of the waters along the coast comes from the rock’s that are dissolving. The soft chalk rocks erode back a couple of meters each year. And at some point they will just dissolve completely. On the other side, ebb and flow, sunset and sunrise, the natural periodic episodes, it just keeps on going. You can always rely on it, undisturbed, whatever happens. It never ceases to amaze me how some things never change.
I touch my earlobe and roll the pearl between my index finger and thumb. In the sky a few cotton white clouds have formed. The air stream transforms them little by little into different shapes, almost like a Rorschach test, but I can’t make anything out of it. ‘It feels like you came back to me.’
‘It’s time to look ahead, I missed you for too long baby.’
‘Say it again.’ I order, rolling on top of her in an all-over kiss of two bodies and pinning her hands above her head.
‘I really missed you.’ She teases and her smile returns to her lips.
‘Uh-hm I missed you too.’ Brushing my lips against hers I whisper. ‘But I meant the other thing.’
‘What.. baby?’ She asks with a gentleness that unsteadies my heart.
‘That’s right.. baby.’ Cupping her face in my hands the world seems to stop turning for a few seconds before I plea. ‘Kiss me.’
And she does with a passion that shies the sun.

Welcome back and congratulations with your upcoming wedding! Did you found the perfect rings?
What a way to come back with this story! They are on the right path and they need to keep talking to each other, about their fears, their feelings, about everything what is troubling them, makes them happy. Show each other by little things how much they love each other.
I am very happy Bette didn’t feel threatened anymore by the woman she got to know by searching Google and Tina cheated on Bette with. Still it will sting and hurt sometimes but their is provement.
Thank you for this chapter!
Bibi! Thank you for the wishes and your comments through out the story. The perfect rings are still waiting to be found but it’s just a matter of time ;).
Many CONGRATS on this fab news!! Thanks for sharing!!
Now leave me be to partake of this chapter
Thank you DumplinT. Hope you enjoyed the chapter. :)
Congratulations! There is nothing better that building a life with the one you love and who loves you in return. May you know a lifetime of happiness.
May Bette and Tina continue to find their way back. It’s still rough for Bette but will hopefully continue to get better. That woman needs to stay away from Tina. Yes, Tina has told her it was a mistake but she needs to continue to be as direct as possible. Oh, and Mrs. Porter was a very nice touch.
Dear Billy. Thank you for your lovely words. And your comment, it means a lot.
Congratulations on your engagement! It was as lovely to hear as seeing this new chapter.
This story is giving me all the feels. I love that Bette doesn’t make herself so sick anymore over that other woman because she is getting more and more confident in her relationship with Tina. She called her Mrs Porter and baby… so lovely <3
Hey Cam!
When are you going to post a new story, we’re eagerly waiting. Tick tack, tick, tack. No pressure. ;)
Thank you for your encouragement!
“Honey, I won’t make it home for dinner we’re about to set Manhattan on fire; I had such an amazing day at work today, we finally killed the mother, it was beautiful; Sorry babe, I gotta run, our monkey’s escaped.”
Bwhahaha – this made me laugh out loud. great chapter and congratulations on the home front!

We’re happy we succeeded to make at least someone laugh with this story haha. Loved your comment, thank you BK!
Ive read all 21 chapters in 2 days, I cried 5 times during it all. I am in awe of this story. It’s honestly so good. <3
Hello Dean,
We’re hoping it doesn’t sound too weird when we say we’re happy and sad at the same time that we made you sad. Not going to appologize though. ;)
Thank you for the uplifting comment!
Besides the rest I particularly loved how you wrote NC-17 scene! How you used jewelry to translate Bette’s layered feelings. This wasn’t sex just for purpose of putting sex in ff, but with a meaning to move story forward. Not to mention that it was hot, far from simplistic description, but truly well written. I don’t think I read similar NC-17 in any other ff.All the ‘ahhhs’, ‘ohhhhs’, ‘yesss’ etc. never bring much to the story for my feeling. Well done!
You are not thinking to finish this story soon, right?
Are you such a troublemaker as your nickname implies?
I’m happy someone noticed the jewelry part, but I don’t share your opinion on NC-17 scenes in other FF’s. There are many amazing writers around here!
Enjoy the next chapter Troublemaker!
