    Author Notes:

    Step by slow step, they start to match pace. Oh, and “I am a woman in love and I’d do anything to get you into my world and hold you within. It’s a right I defend, over and over again. What do I do?” BT

    "Five years ago, I did something I’m not proud of." Candace paused and Bette heard her breathing. Bette felt a pang of longing, and immediately chastised herself.

    "I did something that I’m deeply ashamed of. I left you without saying goodbye."

    Bette felt something inside her crumble. It was painful, excruciatingly so. It felt like a giant hammer pounding away in her chest, pulverizing everything inside her. God, it hurt. She felt like the destruction within was going to radiate and destroy everything that she was on the outside too.

    "Bette? Are you still there?"

    "What?" Bette swallowed hard to keep her voice from betraying her tears.

    "I just wanted to tell you. I’m sorry. I wanted to do it in person. You deserve that much." Candace’s voice sounded tearful too. Bette took a vicious consolation from that.

    "You left me. After everything… after… why?" Bette was desperately clutching the phone to her ear.

    Candace sigh was clear through the line. "It got to be too… I was… do you remember. We saw a movie once. I was drowning in still waters."

    Bette’s jaw clenched as she remembered the line from the movie.

    "So you went to Nevada to get a divorce?" She forced a laugh.

    "I had to do something, Bette. You can’t say you didn’t feel it too."

    "I didn’t! I… It was so sudden…"

    "I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. It tears me apart to know that I hurt you so much. But I needed to do it. Do you understand?"

    "No," Bette took a calming breath to try to still the storm sinking her whole.

    Candace fell silent. Bette waited. Although she was destroyed, she was feeling a sudden and small spark of feeling too bright to understand.

    "That’s all I wanted to say. If you can’t forgive me, I really do understand. I’m prepared for you to hate me. I’m leaving for New York this weekend. I just couldn’t… I couldn’t bear to move on to the next chapter in my life without at least telling you."

    Bette’s nostrils flared as she tried not to breathe too loudly. "Now you’ve told me."

    "Okay. I’m sorry, Bette."

    "Wait!" Bette could hear that Candace was getting ready to end the call.

    4. “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

    8. 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. :)

    11. 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.

    12. 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!

    15. 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.
