We’ve Got Tonight – Part 2
But she told me she wanted me to be happy, she was happy that I was happy, but I think her eyes let her down with that statement, had she forgotten how her eyes were the window to her soul…, that I could see…, deep inside her…
I stood and looked at the bed…, just an empty case…, nothing else, no piles of clothes to sort through, no underwear packed, no toothbrush packed…, no decisions made…
I walked to the bedroom window and look out to the garden, it usually helped me to contemplate those things going through my mind…, just looking through the window…, but my eye was caught by Tina…
She was just sitting there, seemingly just sitting by the pool, I saw her looking toward the sky…, I saw her bringing her hand to her head and the thing that Alice and Shane said came into my mind…, ‘Tina wants you back…’, I had dismissed their claims instantly, but I couldn’t help the fact that the words had been stuck in the forefront of my mind ever since…
I saw her get up, she seemed to have the weight of the world on her shoulders…, I thought that was meant to be me…, she was helping me…, wasn’t she…?
Why would she be looking so unhappy, she told me she was okay…, that she was happy that I was happy…, but her demeanour belied that fact…, was she happy…, did she want me to be happy…, did she want me back…?
There were so many thoughts going through my mind that it was difficult to comprehend where one ended and another began…
I had two women in my life and my mind raced, that fucking crossroads in my life, but it wasn’t a crossroads…, not really…
Jodi was new in my life and it was exciting, she was passionate about everything in her life…, we had so much in common, but were we too much alike in our personalities…, both strong…, both stubborn?
It was intense…, but It could have worked with Jodi…, I didn’t want to think it was settling for second best, it was thinking I could actually be happy even though I didn’t have…, didn’t have my ‘one and only’, my ‘first, last and forever’, because those words didn’t just apply to Tina, they applied to me too, she was the first woman I had ever fallen in love with…, she was the one I wanted to be the last person I ever loved, because she was my…, forever…

you had me dying in anticipation on what song you selected!! I figure after our chat that you would pick this one…and as i said before it just jumped out at me! Great Job!! Loved Bette’s POV!! Can’t wait for more from you!!
That was really, really lovely!
Now I’m addicted to both of your stories! Wish we had seen this play out- but your words make it real enough!Thank you!
You are so right. This is how it should have played out. I already said it. I so wanted it all to dawn on Bette and have her walk back through the doors. As much as I love that we can always count on finding Bette and Tina together in FanFic, I’m hoping and praying that IC gives us what we want in S5.
So glad you decided to write #2, cos the first was heartbreaking!!! Loved the song choice Angel, if only I also shared looks with JB – but same taste in music will do LOL. Great one mate, btw sorry I didn’t get to comment on the first one :o((
Ah Jo, what else can be said right? Fantastic story, and I absolutely loved the line about the “18 reasons”…so very true. Post soon eh? *tapping fingers*
God! This is so good to read! This is much more dramatic and sensible and sweet… This would hook any TV audience! *SCREMING* Take a look at this IC and learn waht we want (hun, like she didn´t know that…) and how to write!
Jo, just wanted to let you know how badly these stories are messing me up. I leave and go to lunch, listening to Mariah Carey sing “Can’t Live” and the Commodores-“Just to Be Close To You” and all I can think about is the scene with BEtte and Tina when Bette’s leaving to go after Jodi. Now I’m really depressed.
Now you went and did it again… you made it all better. You even made sense of the Bette/Jodi disaster… I get it now LOL. Thanks, Jo!
Forever is more like it… one night wasn’t going to be anywhere near enough. Lovely post, Jo. Thanks
*Sigh* If only! Not to worry we always have S5 Great wondeful chapter PPS
Thank you! “for the seventeen reason of wanting to go after Jodi, I can think of eighteen reasons to stay and fight for you…” I’m still holding out hope for them.
Really like this version.
It’s amazing how you give so much and still there are lots to say. You portray the whole situation very well and create many paths you could follow. Fantastic. Stop right here and it’s perfectly finished, or you could simply go on with this story and it would be also great. You’re gifted. Always a pleasure to read your stories.
perfect!!!
Jo, I knew you could make it all better. Captivating. PPS.
You are my goddess for bringing them home. If only season 5 will be this beautiful.
Too bad it didn’t end like this on the show but then Bette would need to be somewhat insightful and we all know that she is a dumb shit when it comes to seeing what’s right in front of her. They are the perfect imperfect couple. JoBette can’t hold a candle to TiBette. Never did and never will. Pls write more.
I agree, this is the way that the season should have ended. I guess that I will have to rely on your Tibette stories to keep me sane and comforted that love does win out at times.
Wow Jo. That simply ROCKED!
I sometimes think when I read your stories that thet can’t keep getting better and better but they do. That was awesome. Thanks for taking the time.
I agree with BeJacks and I REALLY like this version of events :o).
That was beautiful and awsome, love it. Love B&T are together and happy for them. Please post more, thanks!
Wow Jo! That was fucking awesome. Your talent astounds me. I wish it would have happened like this…it should have happened like this. God knows if I had the money to produce a show, you would be the person I would want writing for me! Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed your recent stories, so I had to go back and read some of your previous posts. This was a great, though short story. Beautiful. Wish this was cannon. Thank you for all of your posts, I look forward to reading more.
Hey Jo, Thank you so much for continuing this wonderful story. You can really feel the love and admiration between Bette and Tina. This tale of reconciliated and reconnect is prefect and just how I would have loved the season to finish. I can only hope and continue my delusions that Bette and Tina will reunited. Seeing them together is just adorable and a knife in the heart as I realize that it just as friends and parents and not as lovers. There is a real buzz between them on screen which is so lacking in the Bette/Jodi dynamic. I pray that Ilene is following your wise words. Thank you so much for this delightful drama. Your Loyal Fan.
Thank you. If only….
What an exquisite chapter! Thanks Jo!
*Sigh* Too bad it didn’t play out like this on the show. Although, I like Kate, just without gum! LMAO..I want Bette and Tina together though…and this story did so magically. Thanks Jo!
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful!
Didn’t I say good things could happen if you could be honest with yourself and others?
Brilliant! Too bad Bette had to pay out the ass to ship that sign to NY first. =/
Dammit, Pot! Now my little Kettle heart is breaking because I know that this isn’t what happened… Your post made me all warm and happy… and then IC and reality struck. Oh well. Gorgeous and brilliant as usual.
Indeed, this was as it should have been!
