When the commotion calmed Tina made her pre-emptive strike.
“So Alice,” she began, and Alice felt her pulse quicken at Tina’s tone. “How long have you been seeing Helena?”
For the second time that evening Alice’s drink went down the wrong *****, but this time she limited her coughing to her behind napkin.
Helena stepped in gallantly. “Oh Tina, you’re not jealous are you? Alice and I are just friends!” she smiled winking at a beetroot coloured Alice.
“Yeahit’s not like that T” Alice managed to find her vocals again, “We just go to the same yoga therapist and stuff and have dinner a few times a week.”
Tina chuckled softly, “Okay.” She was not one to remind people of their mistakes or make snap judgements about whom they should or shouldn’t be seeing, and she was subtly sending the same message to Alice.
The remainder of the dinner went smoothly enough with each person making a conscious effort to avoid the obvious topics, those being Bette, Bette and work, Henry, Henry and Tina, Alice and Helena and so on.

After Tina had picked up Angelica from Kit’s later that evening she retrieved the little card from her purse that Henry had given her all those months ago when he had been at her home with Helena.
Lying back on the sofa she dialled the number slowly and thoughtfully. The voice that answered sounded hoarse and husky.
“Hi, its Tina” she began and questioned, “Are you okay, you sound a little sick”
The only sound she heard was a sneeze.
“Yeah,” Henry finally spoke softly clearing his throat, “I caught a cold from junior, he’s all better now but mine looks like its turning into the flu” he said sneezing again.
“OhI’m sorry you don’t feel so wellI should let you get some rest”
“No, noit’s okay” Henry interrupted quickly, “it’s good to hear from you again, and” he coughed, “I really wanted to tell you that I enjoyed my afternoon with youI was gonna call you but then thought maybe”
“Yeah,” Tina said quickly not wanting to be reminded of Bette at that moment.
“Maybe I’ll come by to see you tomorrow? I could bring you some chicken soup?”
“That would be niceI’m not working at the momentmy clients don’t want me around until I get better.”

ok…first, they are both selfish, and just stubborn. Love isn’t easy, nor is a relationship. Maybe they should go their seperate ways, to find they really do need and love each other. keep on posting.
Geeezz..are you going to kill a baby???..lol..you know im totally against persons be together again cuz pregnancy or cuz the baby is sick..they have to love each other and really want to be together… that is the only way their marriege survive cuz otherwise when things come calm they will find a way to fight and be apart again..Bette need to know she have a wife and a kid..be a mother is a full time job she cant run away when things go tough..your killing me..please FIX this..
ohh and Tina is dumb?? visit sick person with a baby at home? she dosent know flu is a virus?????
I can’t believe this,Tina is a dumbass and so is Bette. They both need to be in therapy and Tina needs to leave thqt man alone. Those two need to start talking to each other quickly, before they lose what they do have for each other. This makes me crazy.
Great story. Both Bette and Tina are acting like idiots. I love that Tina professed caretaker that she is doesn’t know that it wasn’t the smartest move to hang out with someone who has the flu when you have a baby in the house.
I really don’t know who the hell these 2 characters are, bec they are not acting like Tina and Bette, but Whatev! I mean Tina is stupid for exposing her child to the flu and for be so damned indecisive and Bette well, she should just let Tina go if she distrusts her so……tsk tsk tsk,. what the hell are these 2 are going to do?
These two people are complete stranger to me, First Bette goes off on a retreat, and Tina taking care of a sick man,with God only knows what and took germs home to her baby. Some one needs to get their stuff together. So that someone can take care of Angie the way a baby needs to be taken care of. If Bette and Tina are through,Than one needs to leave. thanks
poor Angie…great post please post soon!
Could this be something that we have to look forward to in season 3? To the lesbian Gods – please let the spoilers be wrong!!
This is sad to see them like this and they really need to talk. Hope the baby ok!
Why, why, why would Tina expose herself to illness when she has a child of tender years at home? Is this a symptom of her loneliness? And why would Bette go traipsing off into the woods to contemplate the trees when she has a family at home? Now there’s hell to pay.
They both need a kick in the knickers!
Thanks!
Wow, a lot of harsh comments on these two; first of all I don’t think Bette is being selfish by going on the retreat, keep in mind what she’s been through: devastating break up, watching her father die, losing a job that defined her, almost losing the love of her life during pregnancy, seeing her sister almost die of breast cancer, having little to no support at home with Tina who wants to “see other people” ie. rejection from the one love that’s supposed to sustain you…she hasn’t grieved, she’s just handled all these things thrown at her; Tina on the other hand doesn’t want Bette, there is something familiar in their relationship, but if she is angry with Bette for leaving deal with that, don’t start inviting the likes of Helena and Henry into your life the minute she’s gone, that’s dishonest and she doesn’t really seem to value her relationship with Bette. If she can’t commit, why bother.
good point lw, I agree, maybe selfish was to hard of word with B, but T has got to make a decision.
omg crush this is so addicting continue soon!
