Walking After You ch. 19
Kit held out a hand to shake. "Yes, we’re sorry to surprise you like this. Bette can’t come today as she’s been in an accident."
"Oh I’m so sorry to hear that! Is she okay?" Dr. Morga radiated concern even as she seemed the picture of calm.
"She’ll be okay. Just a couple of broken bones. She’s recovering at home." Kit reassured her.
"I’m pleased to hear that."
Kit nodded. Then she stared at the therapist for several minutes. She seemed to come to a decision and stood up. Dr. Morga didn’t seem surprised. Tina started and quickly got to her feet too.
"Tina here," Kit motioned Tina to come closer, "this is Bette’s partner, Tina. Since you’re seeing Bette, I think you two should talk. I’ll just wait for Tina out there in your lovely reception area." Kit quickly exited, avoiding Tina’s glare.
"Kit! Kit!" Tina whispered urgently to the other woman’s back. The door shut behind Kit and Tina wondered if it would be in bad form if she were to rush out too.
"Well, that there is an astonishing example of fine fine womanhood." Dr. Morga remarked. Tina’s head whipped around and stared at the therapist.
"Oh, don’t mind me," Eileen chuckled. "I may look a little rusty on the outside, but my motor’s running just fine. Now, Tina, sit down."
Tina sat down with a gulp.

Bette scowled at Shane’s sleeping form at the foot of the bed. She briefly considered kicking her friend awake, but decided against it when her knees, both of them, reminded her that she was painfully hobbled.
"Shane! Shane!" Bette hissed.
"I’m awake!" Shane bolted up. Her eyes were still half-shut and dried drool was stuck on her chin. "Do you need anything Bette? That’s what I’m here for, to do anything for you." Shane let out a humongous yawn.
"I’m fine. Why don’t you go sleep in the guest bedroom?"
"What? No! I can’t do that. I have strict orders to stay here at all times." Shane rubbed her eyes, trying for that wide-awake look. She failed miserably.
"Go. I’ll be fine. Just hand me the remote and I’ll find something to watch the whole morning."
Shane didn’t need a lot of convincing.

They can’t rent a wheelchair and take Bette to Dr. Morga’s??? PPS
Fantastic update. I hope Tina will hear Bette out. Thank you for this story.
I believe there’s progress. I believe the dam has broken andtheya re going to be alright. I’m not deluded, am I?
“For one evil moment, she wanted to trip Bette and let her fall to the floor”…i don’t know why but this line made me laugh, i apologize if it wasn’t intended to be funny (i guess i love morbid humor)…anyway, another wonderful chapter, i also believe that there’s a progress there, tina is not avoiding it and i hope bette will just tell the truth and tina will listen. The story’s just getting better and better
UH OH Bette in trouble now “damn you candace” let B&T talk and work thing out. Please post more, thanks!
oh yeah… great place to stop… well lets the talks begin… pps
OH boy that was not a good place to end that chappie……..I hope they can talk and LISTEN PPS
oh boy indeed… Tina should strap Bette onto her back and piggy back her down to Dr Morga’s as fast as her legs can carry them. But maybe that wouldn’t help… It’s interesting that Tina might feel that Bette betrayed them by not changing. That call from Candace though, might be the key to that, might change things for the better… even if Tina doesn’t want to hear it! thanks 7, more soon please. :)
Fantastic chapter! You write wonderfully all the time, so I hope that this chapter finds you deliriously happy! Thanks!
Oh boy!!!!!!!, is right. AWESOME update. PPS
Hey 7PM, Geepers, creepers, Bette is in a whole load of trouble.Tina had finally admitted that she and Bette could work through their insercuries with the therapist’s help and now it appears Bette has done the dirty on her.Bette needs to be open and honest with Tina. If she trusts Tina’s love for her, then they can and will work this out.Lying or trying to cover up anything just won’t wash here and only cause further distrust.You are such a wicked writer for leaving me dangling in the air like a parachutist stuck in a tree.So much mystery.Many thanks and please continue soon. Your Loyal Fan.
jeez, candace, some timing you got there. and do throw in words like “thank you for the chance,” that’s just perfect. let’s see about the straw that breaks whoever’s back. now bring on the drama!
why incriminating…i thought bette just had an epiphany, i got it wrong, duh!
Oooh, I was feeling so hopeful there for a minute and then Tina had to find that message from Candace….please make it better.
Dang, I am so sorry Tina found that darned message. Bette doesn’t have anything to feel guilty for, she just told C to “F” off, in a decent way. She just needs to tell the absolute truth and not lie because she is the worst liar in the world. Tell the truth Bette and Tina will understand. Thanks for posting.
AAAHHH CLIFFHANGER!! sighs. But not a good cliffhanger. So agonising waiting to hear how Bette explains herself. PPVVVS!!! =)
