Why, Bette? (Part 6)
“You–you need to leave. I am not going to play this scene with you. It’s not appropriate and it’s certainly unwelcome,” Bette said, standing erect and sure in front of her.
“What? Can’t we talk?”
“No, you’re on the clock, Candace. We both have work to do.” Bette walked around her and opened the door fully. Her eyebrows lifted as a way to offer guidance out.
“Can I just talk to you for a second? Just a few seconds. There’s something I want…no need to say.”
Bette acquiesced. “What is it?”
Candace grabbed the door and closed it. “I’m in love with you,” she stated.
“What? You don’t even know me. You know nothing about me. What do you mean you’re in love with me? That’s laughable.”
“I’m not laughing. I mean it.”
“We haven’t spoken in weeks. Before that hardly at all. We had a business relationship and briefly, not even totaling an afternoon, we had a sexual affair.”
“I know that. I want to know you better. Okay, you were with Tina when we met, but that doesn’t mean that Tina’s the one for you. I could be. I’ve never felt this way about anyone. I’ve been with a lot of women, Bette—a lot.”
“You said yourself that our little thing was just fun.”
“It was supposed to be. I didn’t expect to fall in love with you. I didn’t expect anything from you, but something changed in me. Every moment I worked here I wanted to touch you, be near you. You can’t fault me for this. It’s not like I can help it.”
Bette stared at her dumbfounded as Candace continued, “These past weeks have been so hard. I’ve wanted to call you just to hear your voice, but I know you have caller I.D. I’ve wanted to follow you.” She paused before confessing, “I did once.”
Bette’s eyes widened in surprise and fear. “You followed me?”
“I’ve never stalked anyone before.” Candace shrugged. “I’m not going to start now. I followed you from the CAC one time, that’s it. Bette, you’ve done something to me. I can’t see anyone else. I can’t think of anyone else. My friend, Michaela wants to hook up, but I haven’t given her the time of day. I don’t want her.”

Portia, your story is pure genius. Congrats on finishing, and I so look forward to reading more of your writing in the future.
Portia just read your series excellent!!
Please write some more. Wonderful series.
I have been patiently waiting for your new chapter, wow was I blown away. I just Loved how you told your story with so much love along with the heartache that a couple feels with infidelity. It is the most intimate betrayle ones partner can do. It opens up so many doubts which you have explored thru your story along with ” we all have our own stories of our childhood” you also explored that thru your story which tells a lot how one’s behavior is in a relationship. I hope that you write more for us readers to enjoy. Thank-you very much.
This series was amazing!!!!
Portia, I just hope that my We are Family! Series comes out a fraction as good as this series was. You’re good, write some more, please! :D
Such detail, such intensity, such love…you just let it all out with full humility…I hope you find time to give us a deeper look into your delicious imagination…I’m a true Portia fan forever!!!

This is a great and captivating fanfic!! Are you sure it is the end? There are still loose ends like Bette not wanting to discuss her mother with the therapist yet, couple counseling (is it over?), hot love-making on the night of exchanging rings…you know :)

Great work!
I’ve greatly enjoyed you story.You’ve done a great job making us feel all the emotiona that Bette&Tina feel or felt.
Portia – I loved your tory – I printed the whole thing out & read it like a novel – you write so fluidly and handle powerful emotion and angst so well and then wrap it all up neatly – what more could we ask for – a good meaty read – I admire greatly the ability to get into the head of a character – I can’t write for Toffee – but I read avidly. Please do create more of this quality – I’ll start your next story & keep looking out for your name. Thanks
Bravo! Very well done! Your descriptions were fantastic. I will keep an eye out for more of your work.
