Wanna Date? Chapter 8
Nothing in life is a sure thing you know. You just never know whats coming round the corner. If Ive learned one thing Tina, is that whatever you do, you have to be true to yourself. She said earnestly. You have to do what is right for you. Does this feel right?
Tina looked down at her hands, fiddling with her nails because she wanted to avoid the question.
Tina? If this is what you want, to date them both, them thats ok..
Tina looked up. No.
Kit looked puzzled. What?
No, it doesnt feel right Kit. I thought it would be casual and fun, but when have things between me and Bette ever been casual? And Helenas not happy either. I mean I know she doesnt love me, but she hates Bette! She says its fine, that we arent exclusive, but shes been really cold with me since I said I wanted to see other people. Of course, she guessed straight away who I wanted to see. And Bette looks so confused right now, she continued, on a real roll. I mean I virtually seduce her and then ask her out, and yet I still cant resist punishing her for that fling. I love her so much Kit, but I think my pride is stopping me from letting her back into my life fully. But how do I know things would be any different this time round anyway? Maybe Im just kidding myself and should just let her go. She ended with another of her all too frequent big sighs.
This time Kit leapt in. Whoa there girl, that was a shitload of frustrations you just let out! she said quickly.
Tina smiled sadly. I just dont know what to do Kit. If I break up with Helena, Bette will think I want to get back together, and I’m not sure that I’m ready to be with her quite yet. But on the other hand, I know I need her in my life. Breaking up with Bette just isnt an option. She said firmly.
OK, good Tina, so you have that sorted. So Bette stays.
Then again, I could just leave things as they are, she looked hopefully at Kit. See how things develop?
Tina, I think that could be a recipe for disaster, Kit cautioned. None of you are happy with the situation, and definitely not those other two.
But I’m not ready to choose Kit! exclaimed Tina.
Choose? Tina, you just told me you couldnt NOT choose Bette. That not seeing her any more was not an option. Look girl, I just dont think you are being fair to either one of them. I think you need to decide what you really want.
Tina pondered Kits words as she drove home a little while later. Tina Kennard was someone who always did the right thing. She had strong moral principles when it came to relationships. She didnt like hurt people. She remembered how things had ended with Eric, all those years ago

I love to see Tina processing the ‘dating’ issue. I NEED this!
Did you ever see the movie, ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’? There’s a scene where a character taps out the ‘shave and a haircut’ rhythm. Roger almost bursts from the irresistable impulse to finish the ‘two bits’.
What does this have to do with this story? I’m trying to explain the emotionally compelling need for closure that was repeatedly thwarted on TLW, particularly in S2. Stories like yours provide the ‘two bits’.
Thanks!
i´m totally agree with Kit Tina can continue play this game she must choose what she really wants…great chapter post soon thanks
I think it is time for Tina to kick Helena to the curb and take it easy with Bette.
this chapter was awesome, the complexity of Tina’s feelings and needs so well described or discovered as she talked to Kit. You really nailed that process. I agree with Techie you are filling in the gaps in the most compelling and thoughtful way. Loving it and waiting for your next post.
GREAT CHAPTER…THANKS..
Excellent chapter! Wonderful dialogue with Tina and Kit.
Please continue and soon – thanks so very much for writing and sharing!
I am not yet ready to see Tina kick Helena to the curb. Of course, Bette and Tina belong together, but I think that this is the perfect time to see Bette do some real groveling (which I do not think she did near enough of in S2) and she needs to know that Tina is a wonderful woman that has many choices. I think Tina should continue to date and have other such activities with both H and B for the time being. Just my opinion…
Kit is right! Tina needs to make up her mind…things with her and Bette cannot just be casual. Thanks for the insight into Tina! I wish we had more of that in S2.
Great chapter. Time for Tina to get rid of Helena and just let Bette know how it is going to be. post soon
Great chapter. I love how you utilize Kit. I wished we saw this on screen.
WOW!!! Tina’s really confused..But I hope she makes the RIGHT choice..THANKS!
K
Excellent chapter. Pick Bette, hello? Love it, can’t wait for more.
Damn Tina choose 1 of them and make a right decision and hope Tina will choice Bette. Can’t wait to see Bette and Tina get back together. Post soon, thanks!
WOW! Hey Cogent I’m just read all of the Story you got there, thats was so Beautiful Amazing story I love it Kit is right I love the way she said to Tina NOTHING IN LIFE IS A SURE THING YOU KNOW Amen of that you’re right Cogent that Awesome write up I love it Thanks Please post soon.
Loved the talk between Tina and Kit. And Kit is right, Tina can´t continue this game any longer. She needs to choose eighter Bette or Helena and for god sake let her choose Bette. Please. Wonderful update. Keep going
This is such a great explantion of what Tina was thinking. The show completely passed over any of this and I am glad that you have been able to fill in the gaps. It makes sense (something that IC doesn’t always do). They promised processing but it has taken the fanfic writers to acutally do it…thanks, cant wait for updates.
Great chapter. Tina’s uncertainty about her relationships with Bette and Helena are quite insightful. Kit was being truthful and a real friend to Tina. Very well done.
