    Author Notes:

    Harbingers – Bette and Tina face minor crises, some of which will later create serious difficulties in their relationship.

    She had never talked to Tina about anything like this and didn’t much want to. Bette knew the way Tina looked at her. Bette was perfect in bed and in business. She was successful in a business that was notoriously difficult and she saw the pride that shone in Tina’s eyes when she talked with one of her clients or someone who just respected her in the art world.

    Now she would have to go home and tell Tina that she had failed, or try to hide it. Bette wasn’t good at doing either one. The phone rang in her office and she didn’t answer it.

    –

    Tina put down the phone and wondered where Bette was. She was getting worried because her girlfriend was already over an hour late. She had covered the food and refrigerated it. She could quickly heat it when Bette got home. And so Tina began to pace back and forth through the house.

    Then she heard Bette’s car drive up and she went out to greet her. Bette was getting her purse and briefcase out of the car when she heard Tina approach. As she turned, Tina threw herself in Bette’s arms. It was clumsy because Bette was holding items just taken from the car, but Tina didn’t care. She kissed Bette and then pulled back running a finger over Bette’s lips.

    “You had a drink?”

    “A little wine.”

    “At the office?”

    “T,” Bette said with exasperation.

    They went into the house and Tina served the food which she ate heartily. Bette just picked at her food.

    “What’s wrong?” Tina said finally.

    “Rafael Cuevas decided not to exhibit at my gallery.” Bette admitted.

    Bette watched Tina to see if there was a change in how Tina looked at her. There wasn’t except for a flash of anger.

    “He’s an idiot, baby!” Tina growled. “He’s a damn, ***** fool!” She crashed one of her fists on the table, and the crockery and silverware jumped. Bette looked at her with appreciation.

    Tina started clearing the table loudly, the way she did when she was annoyed. She probably didn’t realize that this was the perfect reaction for Bette. Tina had shown the same type of anger that Bette had and there had been no hint of Tina’s being disappointed in Bette.

    1. I definitely love this chapter, as usual.

      Bette and Tina are in their run-in time. Each relationship has such a period. It’s quite understandable for two strangers to live together and need to share a lot of things with each other suddenly. But it’s relatively easy to overcome because in the early years of a relationship, their love is more passionate. They are more patient, more understanding, and easier to give in to the other’s requirement.

      I hope Bette could be always patient and romantic, but I think it’s almost impossible in reality. Sometimes we need this fairy tale to balance the coldness we get from real life, rite? =)

    2. commitment is a complicated thing, i hope that B&T will be able to work on their insecurities and little problems, so it won’t affect them in a long run…thank you

    3. I love your (for lack of another word) tone. I love the way you state your case – so simply, almost matter-of-fact, yet…not. It’s clear, clean. It’s like a lesson sometimes.

      And these are lessons in loving and living together. Thanks for giving us a window into their period of adjustment. Your fic brightens my day and I look forward to it.

    4. Class is dismissed. Now what will they be learning tomorrow? But it is all becoming too much like a lesson in every chapter i’m starting to miss that loving feeling and I assume they still have that.

    5. I still think this chapter is cute despite the little fits. I think Tina is cute with her mood swings and girly-girl-ness… and Bette is cute too for being so understanding and even wanting to over look Tina’s cute nonesense of an argument… how cute.

    8. “bette reflected that every daya she lengthened der defination of love. a few weeks ago she learned not to tease tina too hard. then there was the jealousy thing. then she learned to insist that tina share things with her. today it was being patient while the person you love has to work off sme anger from outside the household.” deep. you go girl. loved this chappy. thanks.

    13. Love your What is Love 101 Lesson of the day Observe more. Bette has go to remember that that Tina is use to men ,and that men can notice anything out of place. IWomen goes with the flow. Bette will learn if it takes a life time. Im crazy over baseball.I have over 25,000 cards and a lot of ball that is sign, the most famous is N, ryan, thanks for this post.

    14. Yeah Love is good and bad at the sametime, love can give you nice time and hard time to. Hope Tina can control her self and poor Bette have to do anything to make Tina feel good, love the way Bette patient and so romantic. Ok post soon please, thanks!

    19. im glad Bette is sure about want to be with Tina lifetime and Tina need to control herself no one is perfect and relationship is that..try to accept your partners imperfection and still be in love..great as always thanks..
