    Author Notes:

    Pride is always in the way

    Its kind of hard to forget.

    Yeah? Why did you leave? Were you trying to get me back for what I did?

    No, Bette! I would never do that. Dont you think that maybe I was scared?

    You think I wasnt?

    I didnt know what to think. I still dont.

    What do you want, Tina?

    Tina stared at Bette and bit her bottom lip. Bette recognized that as Tina sorting through her thoughts before speaking. Some things never changed, she realized.

    I want to be loved.

    So do I.

    Tina laughed in frustration. So where does that leave us?

    It leaves us right here until tomorrow.

    Then?

    Then you go to Colorado to your daughter and I go to New York. If we then decide we cant live without the other, pick up the phone or hop on a plane. Time will tell.

    Tina thought about this for a moment and admired Bettes decisiveness. I can deal with that.

    Bette reached over and touched Tinas face, seeing a couple of fine lines that threatened to be wrinkles. The consequences of time. For the rest of the night, there wasnt any more talking. Short whispers were uttered but nothing beyond that. They loved each other physically, knowing the dawn would wake them from their dreams.

    ***

    And thats all she wrote. Bette sighed, glancing at Shane. She had several used tissues all around her and the box somehow ended up in her lap during her story.

    What about the deal where youd call after some time if you couldnt live without her or she you? Shane asked.

    Neither one of us took each other up on the offer.

    Why not? You could live without her?

    Bette laughed. No, I just waited for her to make a move.

    What if she was thinking the same thing about you?

    Then our pride got in the way again.

    I think that has been the moral of the story. Ill now always remember never to let my pride get the better of me.

    Bette patted Shane on the head. Smart girl. Now, Id love to hear a little about you. What do you say?

    I have a feeling theres more to your story, but we can shift topics for a while. Shane grinned. That is, if youre still up to it.

    I never back down from a challenge. Bette said, arching an eyebrow. Lets go for a drive, though. Want to?

    Where to? Shane asked.

    Its a surprise. Ill drive and you talk.

    Shane laughed and tossed the keys to Bette who smiled and held the door open for Shane. They walked out into the night quietly like two teenagers sneaking out past curfew, hearts racing, fearful of getting caught.
