“I’m a different person now T, I wouldn’t shut you out like I did before. My whole life, I’ve only ever loved one woman, and that is you. I’ll do anything you want to help make us stronger. Therapy, counseling, meditation, I’ll even take up jogging with you if you like.” They shared a grin. “I’m just asking you, begging you Tina, give me a chance. Give us a chance again.”
They stood close together, gazes locked, holding hands, both of them contemplating Bette’s words. Bette had been hoping for an instant acceptance, but in reality, she knew that was a bit much. For a few seconds she enjoyed the fantasy of Tina flinging her arms around her, and declaring, ‘Yes, yes, take me now you ***** beast!’
She quashed her errant thoughts, and went for the more reasoned approach.
“Look T, I know I’ve laid all this on you out of the blue. All I’m asking is that you think about it, ok? I just wanted to let you know how I felt about you, don’t say anything right now,” she went on as Tina opened her mouth to speak. Bette had a nasty feeling she was going to turn her down. She tried to control the sense of dread that was seeping into her bones.
She could see Franklin approaching, with several board members in tow. Time for her last shot.
“I love you Tina, I always have and I always will, whatever you decide.” She smiled sadly, wondering whether this would be her last chance to be close to Tina. Had she pushed too hard? Had she fucked it up? Tina hadn’t said yes, but she hadn’t said no either, and the way she moved to link her arm with Bette’s as the board members crowded around to offer their congratulations gave her some hope too.
For her part, Tina was dumbstruck. She knew she and Bette were finally on the same page. Once again, they both wanted the same thing; each other. She hadn’t had a chance to reply to Bette’s heartfelt expression of love before Bette had leapt in to stop her speaking. In retrospect, it was probably a good thing. Tina didn’t really want this conversation to take place in a crowded art gallery. This was between them. She had her final check up with Dr Wilson tomorrow, she would talk to Bette then. For now she just basked in the knowledge that her happiness was just a day away.

Your story unfolds beautifully with each chapter. I’m saddened by the fact that the end draws near, but hopeful you will begin a new story when this one finishes. Thanks for writing. Bring on 20!
I second JKS’s comments.

IWONDERFUL JOB..I’M SAD IT IS THE END SOON,BUT THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL STORY
simply loving your story, definitely more satisfying than how it unfolded in S2! Please continue to spin your take on bette and tina, hope this continues for many many more chaps….long running series? Thanks!!
S2 began with a Dusty Springfield song, ‘Just a Little Lovin’
I propose another song from that album, in reference to both Bette’s love for Tina, and our unfulfilled hopes for S2:
In The Land of Make Believe
(I wish we could have had your scenario – please indulge me and pardon the length)
In the land of make believe
You’re mine tonight
Although you are far away
In the land of make believe
I’m holding you tight
The silver moon is shining above
And there’s love in your eyes
And I’m kissing you
Like I used to do
Yesterday in paradise
I’ve been living in the land of make believe
Since you’ve been gone
I need you so much
That without your love
I must deceive myself
To go on
Your loving hand caresses my face
We embrace tenderly
Never will we part
Deep down in my heart
You are always here with me
You are always here with me
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe
In the land of make believe
Page after page of closure!
You don’t know how satisfying that is!
Or, maybe you do!
This is great. I sure hope Tina says yes to Bette – I mean who could resist her. LOL
OMG…what a wonderful chapter. Tina finally got her closure with Helena. Tina stood up to Helena with strength, dignity, and love. Yes love, not for Helena, but for herself and Bette. Helena was there for Tina at a time she needed someone (although Helena had ulterior motive) — and Tina learned a lot about herself with Helena. Anyway, Tina got her closure and Bette finally found the words to tell Tina her real feelings. Bette not only told and showed Tina how much she loves her and wants her back in her life as her “wife,” but she showed Tina her vulnerability. Bette opened herself up to Tina, she exposed herself in a way that she can be blissfully happy or deeply wounded. Big step — and I think Tina saw that in Bette words in addition to the love. Great chapter…I’m saddened that it coming to an end. Thank you.
“happiness was just a day away” is it just a day away for us too? ;-)
Yes, yes, take her now you sexy beast! (lol)
Great chapter ! And a very nice little cliffhanger now. Common, T, say yes ! ^_^
I am going to be so sad when this ends tomorrow…but please tell is in the author’s notes when your new story will begin…thank you for sharing your talents!!!
