    Author Notes:

    Just a short story. Chapter 2 of likely 4 chapters.

    “We are,” Tina agreed, subtly taking her hand from underneath Bette’s and reaching for her wine glass. But we’re not partners any longer. We’re great friends.”

    “Great friends with an undercurrent of…” Bette started.

    “Don’t say it Bette,” Tina chastised gently. “We both know it’s there, but it’s easier to deal with if we don’t verbalize it.”

    “I still compare people to you,” Bette said.

    “I think we’ve had enough wine,” Tina interjected.

    “I’ve only had a glass and a half,” Bette stated. “It’s not making me say anything I haven’t been thinking for a long time.”

    “Bette you know I love you,” Tina said. “But you’re off limits to me. It hurts too much to think of where we went wrong, and sometimes I see you with Jodi and I think it should be me you’re with.”

    “I’m trying to work through thinking that myself,” Bette said quietly. “I thought it was time we discussed it.”

    “Hey girls, how’s the evening going,” Alice greeted them cheerily with Tasha only a few steps behind her. “Kit told us you were back here. Place is filling up if you want to come join the fun out front.”

    “Actually we were winding up dinner,” Tina replied. She directed her next question to Bette. “Still okay if I come over to tuck her in?”

    “Of course, I’d love it if you did,” Bette replied.

    “Help us finish the wine and then we’ll be on our way,” Tina suggested making a gesture to the two free chairs.

    “You’re sure? We don’t want to interrupt,” Tasha checked as Alice grabbed a couple of wine glasses from an adjacent table and pulled out a chair to seat herself.

    “Of course. We were just discussing Angie’s pre-school,” Tina replied. In fact she was relieved to have Alice and Tasha there as diversion after what had been an intense and unexpected conversation.

    “How’s the school search going?” Alice asked.

    “We found the one we want her to attend,” Bette said. “But we have to jump through a few hoops to make it happen.”

    “When did admission to pre-school get so competitive?” Alice asked. “I didn’t put this much work into applying for college.”

    “The school is convenient to both of us, and they make learning fun for kids,” Tina replied. “And they’re going to demand that we stay involved, which will be good for us.”

    “Their art program is second to none,” Bette added. “The combination of factors puts it at the top of our list.”

    “The best thing is you two are on the same page with the decision,” Alice noted, sipping at the wine Bette had poured for her. “I wasn’t sure how the co-parenting was going to go for a while there, but ultimately you value the same things and you clearly have Angie’s best interests in mind.”

    “That has come up this evening,” Bette smiled, glancing at Tina.

    Small talk rounded out the evening before Bette and Tina said their goodbyes and headed back to Bette’s to tuck in Angelica.

    4. So good. My heart was seriously pounding when Bette was laying it a little bit on the table. If Tina gave her the sign I think Bette would put it all out there. But it seems like Tina is trying to observe the lines that are in place now. But damn, their friendship is so good.. and being together again with all their personal growth on the side could be even better. The white lie could be the truth. I think Jodi’s problem with Bette having family ties is a huge red flag. PPS.

    5. Brilliant, come on bette, it’s time to leave jodi. The weekend away sounds like it could be a lot of fun for the girls. Please don’t leave us waiting too long!Thanks

    7. jks– One more bottle of wine and “what had been an intense and unexpected conversation” could have easily become “an intense and unexpected” reunion. I love this story. Thanks for finding the time to write it.

    12. Hey jks…Another great chapter. It was cool to have Alice and Tasha break the ice between Bette and Tina. This really sucks that it has gotten competitive with the whole pre-school thing. When I have children, I’ll check take care of them myself. LOL Thanks for the update and can’t wait for the next chapter!!!

    19. Ahh..blast it. Just when the conversation was getting spicy, in walks Alice and Tasha. Oh, well…let’s hope there are goodnight kisses for more than just Angelica…

    20. Bette’s being a bit of teh Ms. Arsy McArse. Her non-subtle hinting on T when she’s the one in a relationship is basically asking T to help her cheat or break up. Pull head from posterior Ms. P and do your own dirty work. Good boundaries on the T side. (Have I told you before I like your writing?)

    21. Swimmie, thanks for this new story, as this is excellent, as usual. As someone just noted, is Angelica the only one going to get tucked in, or do we Tibetters get that glimmer of hope that doesn’t involve any cheating? Please post soon.

    23. Hello jks, that was dynamite. Your brilliance at weaving the layers of emotions, both said and unsaid is just amazing. The dialogue you drew between Bette and Tina is just so powerful, it is two women who realize what they have, but are both unwilling and afraid to ask for it. They are on the same wavelength about everything, even their not so hidden but as Tina put it “Off Limits” position within one another’s lives. The question remains, we know and Tina knows that she is still in love with Bette but will it be seen that Bette realizes that she is still in love with Tina and take the chance with her heart once again, she realizes know that this thing with Jodi is about safety, she needs passion. You are weaving another fantastic story, full of huge emotions and amazing feelings. Brilliant. Sincerely, JC

    26. Wow, I’m loving this stuff !!! This is just too good. But then again, I always love your stories, JKS. Could you please make this last a little longer than 4 chapters ?… Please… Please… Please… ‘Cause I’m afraid 4 chapters will never be enough to quench our Tibette thirst. Hehehe ! Thank you ! Thank you !

    28. i hope they will talk more while at bette’s…they have too…i love this, post soon and more…just don’t break our collective tibette-loving hearts LOL

    29. hope bette starts up the conversation again at home while tucking in angie! they really need to have this conversation whether it’s planned or not! kudos for bette starting it :)
