    When She Loved Me (11) – Final Chapter

    "I know it’s kind of … it might not make sense to say it now, after all of this time, but …" she whispered quietly, almost as if a librarian hid around the corner to scold them. “But I love you, Tina. I love you more than anything, and I guess I was just afraid …”

    "Bette," Tina smiled, holding the adorably vulnerable face in her hands, interrupting Bette’s explanation. She really didn’t need one. "I love you too. With all my heart."

    Bette just smiled – she had never known she could be so happy.

    "I could die happy right now," Tina breathed, completely at ease on the bed she had missed. The bed she thought she would never see again. All of her life made sense here under Bette, and the words of something that had been true for so long gave her a happiness she hadn’t expected it to. She had known all along, so why was saying it so different?

    "Don’t you dare," Bette said with so much emotion that she captured Tina’s attention. "God, when I saw you in that hospital bed … I think a little piece of me died."

    Although she had told Tina already that she had been to the hospital, she hadn’t clarified. Suddenly there was a curiosity that wouldn’t be ignored. "How did you get into the room if my parents were so intentionally difficult?"

    "I snuck in," Bette said quietly, shifting to lay right next to Tina, looking her in the eyes.

    Tina smiled in awe – Bette was not one to sneak around. "You snuck in?"

    "Sure did. And I sat on the bed … and I held your hand" she picked up Tina’s hand "And kissed it like this." She showed Tina just what she did, and how gently she had done it. As if she was touching her lips to some ancient artifact, so fragile and helpless.

    "You thought you might lose me," Tina observed, truly affected by how unjust the whole experience had been for Bette. She didn’t know what she would have done, had the situation been reversed.

    "Your face," Bette whispered, touching it gently even now. "Tina … my heart could barely take it … and all I wanted was to lay in that bed with you, and tell you it would all be alright. You looked so hurt … so injured."

    1. Thank you for this sad, happy, up, down and uplifting tale. You did a great job of portraying the complex emotions of these two women on their journey to each other! Can’t wait for the next one.:)

    2. I really loved this story and the track you chose. To be honest, I’m never one to click on those the links to songs that some authors attach to their stories because somehow, I get distracted. But, your selections were so complementary to the story and I really enjoyed it -almost as much as your writing.

    3. U know u do this to me every time. These beautifully written love stories so full of passion, deep connections and an understanding that is expressly so wonderfully through your writing and then u take it away. I’m a little sad rite now. So i’m gonna go back to the beginning and pretend like it don’t know the ending. I love this story, Thank You Beautiful.

    4. GR stands for Gettit Right. Short and sweet and oh so beautiful. November 6, 2009 is when you loved us and have been ever since. And we love you right back GR :) thank you.

    5. Amazing, amazing writing. Loved that Bette was now seeing life in colour instead of shades of gray. Happy that the found their way back to each other. You are one talented writer. I hope maybe more tibette beginnings come up, need to get the thinking cap on. Thank you.

    6. The end of your story, can be described as Bette&Tina’s love-Simply the Best. I am so glad that they are together and left town, even though in some way I hoping that they would be brave enough to show those bigoted people what true love looks like. There seems that there could be more of this story to tell-Bette’s writing, Tina’s degree-job. Life in general-with the relationship and the friends. Thank you for the beautiful journey.
