What will she do next-Revised chapter 18
Before she left she placed her cool soft hand upon his forehead.
“You have a fever.” She said softly.
“I know.” He answered.
He had enjoyed watching her all day, and began to realise that if he was not careful he would end up falling in love with her.
“I’ll take some more of that cold remedy before I go to bed.” He continued not wanting to worry her about leaving him alone. “I’ll be okay.”
“I’ll call you tomorrow from work and if I can I’ll stop by on my way home okay?” she said and unconsciously leaned down and kissed his head before walking out of his front door.

In fact Tina ended up stopping by every evening that week as Henry got worse before he got better. By Friday evening he was no longer having feverish sweats and it seemed as if the fever had finally broke. He even acted better.
“GodI feel great!” He exclaimed as Tina prepared their take out dinner that she had picked up. She didn’t have the heart to tell him that he still looked like *****, but was relieved that he was up and around and no longer burning up.
“Okay, that’s very good, but now you need to build up your strength, and I think you might have lost a little weight too, so let’s concentrate on fattening you up!” she joked.
As they sat at the large dining table eating quietly Henry felt the urge to show his appreciation.
“Thank you for this week,” he began hurriedly, ” I meanI know you didn’t have to”
“It’s okay, and it was my pleasurethat’s what friends are for, no?”
‘Friend? She thinks I’m a friend? Nothing more?’ Henry was having a mental battle with himself and didn’t notice that Tina was looking at him a little strangely.
They made polite conversation while they finished their meal and Henry headed back to the sofa as Tina cleared up.
When he thought she was about to leave she surprised him by plopping herself down next to him. She did her now usual forehead check, to confirm that the fever was well and truly gone, but as she started to move her hand away he grabbed it gently.

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!
