“I don’t know,” I said, “because I can’t provide for her anymore. Because she doesn’t understand why I did what I did with Candace. Because I have become a shell of the woman I used to be.”
“Maybe all of them,” Alice said, “you need to get her to talk to you.”
“She won’t,” I said, “she doesn’t look me in the eye anymore because she knows I’ll see that she doesn’t love me anymore.”
“She loves you Bette,” Alice said.
“I’m not so sure,” I said, my quiet cries turning into shuddering sobs.
“But I am,” Alice said, “I saw her curled on the couch ridden with tears. I heard her sobs in the night, calling your name, saying that she loved you.”
“That was then and this is now,” I said.
“No Bette,” Alice said, “that kind of love doesn’t just go away. That kind of love is embedded in your heart forever.”
“Is that the way you love Dana?” I asked knwoing the answer already because I could see it in her eyes.
“Yes,” Alice said wiping the fresh tears that spilled out, “I’ll never find that kind of love again.”
“Yes you will, just a little faith and…” I trailed off my eyes brimming with a river of tears that spilled out over my cheeks.
“What?” Alice said wiping stray tear from a cheek gently.
“That’s it,” I breathed, barely audible but I knew she heard me.
“What’s it?” Alice said.
“Faith,” I said, “Tina has lost her faith in me.”
“So go get it back,” Alice said rubbing my back encouragingly.
“How?”
“I don’t know,” Alice said, “fight for it.”
………………..
I just stared up at the ceiling, hearing the pitter patter of the rain outside, the soft tunes from my small radio, and the gentle breathing of my blonde partner. I was more entranced by her breathing then by the other sounds. I watched her with her blonde hair strewn all over her face, and her chest rising and falling with every breath.
That breath is what kept me alive. I cherished it.
With a small sigh, I moved the strands of hair off her beautiful face, relaxed in its slumber and I leaned down to place a gentle kiss to her lips. It was the only time when our kisses were genuine.

What Dainty said.
How beautiful was that. Thank you for a wonderful story. Love it.
The right song for our “perfect” couple,at one time lose “Faith” for one another.
I agree with you, this should have been an episode in S3. Heck, why don’t you write the movie, IC doesn’t seem to want to complete it, just giving us that train wreck of “The Real L Word” huh. Really liked this “What If…” Actually I liked all of them and enjoy your writing. Thanks.
That was wonderful and amazing, love it. Please post more, thanks!
That was beautiful. Thank you!
I really loved it. a true reconnection between the best couple. love it!
This was so beautiful… Thank you. PPS.
Simply beautiful. And the perfect song sung perfectly.
Beautiful.Thank you.
Ah.. This “what if” is so good but sometimes so painful, just makes me wishing “If only… ” as it’s a great escape from the ugliness of something called “reality”
Such a wonderful story, so beautiful. I agree with Dainty, this should have been an episode but the drama that they incurred on their way back to each other was worth the ending. Great post! Love the “what if’s” :)
