“Why?” (Chapter 3)

“Bette, why are you here?” asked Tina.
“I had to come and check on you…”
“You mean, u don’t want to be with Candace?” asked Tina very nastily.
“Tina, you didn’t even ask me why she was there…you just busted in an assumed that something was going on…”
” Well, you left me no room to think that something wasn’t going on…The last I heard, you had been ***** her.”
“T, can I come in?” asked Bette…
Tina leaned against the door, exhausted…”Yea, I guess…but don’t call me that…” Tina backed up and Bette walked in brushing against her as she did…She went over to the sofa to sit…
“Why?” asked Bette..
“Why what?”
“Why can’t I call you, T?”
“Because the Bette I used to be with, called me that…”
“I am that Bette…”
“No you aren’t…you are someone else…because my Bette wouldn’t do this to me.”
“T……I mean Tina, I am so sorry…what can I do to change things between us?” asked Bette with tears in her eyes…
“You can take all the pain away…take back everything that has happened since you met Candace.”
“I wish I could, but I can’t…I can only try to change things…..change myself…”
“You haven’t changed in one day, Bette..”
“We can work at it, Tina…please, I don’t want to lose you…”
“You should’ve thought about that before you fucked Candace…”
“Please, quit doing that…bringing her up..” said Bette.
“Why? She is the reason that we are going through this…actually you ***** her is the reason we are going through this.”
“Dammit Tina, please stop it…”
“I can’t stop, Bette!” said Tina screaming….”I can’t get you and her out of my head..all I see is you and her *****…”
“I’m sorry Tina…dammit, why do I always do stupid *****…?” said Bette crying and putting her head in her hands…
“People make mistakes ……but this one is bad…I can’t even trust you any more…seven years of trust washed down the drain in the 1 minute that I stood and watched you and Candace..”
“*****, what can i do, baby? What do you want me to do?” asked Bette as she walked over to Tina…
“There is nothing you can do Bette, the pain is there and the worst thing is, the trust is gone.”
“There has got to be something I can do to make you believe me…that I do love you and you are the only one for me…”
“Did you break it off with Candace?” asked Tina as she walked over to the couch leaving Bette standing..
“There was nothing to break off…” said Bette “It was just *****…”
“*****…” said Tina as she sobbed louder…
Bette went over and sat on the couch next to Tina…..she put her hand under Tina’s chin and pulled it up to look her in the face…”Baby, I am so sorry…I never meant to hurt you……..I love………..” but Tina interrupted her before she could finish….
“Then why?” she sobbed…”If you love me so much, why did you do it?”
“I don’t have an answer for that….I don’t know why exactly….”
“That’s not good enough…..” said Tina standing up….”I think you should leave now…”
“Please Tina, let me stay…I won’t touch you if you don’t want me too…I just want to be here with you….”
“I don’t know Bette…don’t you have to work?”
“I called in…” said Bette..
“I ***** can’t believe that…” said Tina…angrily…” You have never called in before…in the seven years that I have known you.”
“Please Tina, I don’t want to go back to that empty house….without you… “
“I’m just not sure that’s a good idea…”
“Please…..”
Bette was begging Tina…She didn’t want to go back to that house alone…everything there reminded her of their love…everything she had just ruined….
Tina on the other hand just wanted to pull Bette into her arms and hold her…tell her that she forgave her…even though she hadn’t…even though Bette had done this to their relationship….she had put seven years into it…and It would be easier to be with Bette….no matter what she did.. WRONG!!!! Tina had to forgive her before she could take her back…and she had to learn to trust her again…but how? How can you ever trust someone after they take advantage of you in that way….You trust them fully and then all of a sudden…they cheat on you….and you can’t even look at them without seeing the other person too…
“Bette…”
“Don’t make me go home alone…if you don’t want me to stay here…then just come back with me……I won’t pressure you…I won’t even touch you..if you don’t want me too.
I can’t go back there without you, Tina…” said Bette.
“Okay…against my better judgement…okay….but I am sleeping in the spare bedroom………………………….”
“Oh, God…thank you….Tina…..”
“But, I am sleeping alone………………” ‘as much as I don’t want to.’ thought Tina.
“Okay…anything..I will do anything….even though you don’t want to hear this…..I love you with all my heart…..” said Bette…
“You are right………………I don’t want to hear that……….”
“Come on..” said Bette as she walked to the door…
“Wait, I have to leave Alice a note….”
Tina went over to the counter and jotted down a letter to Alice…
‘Bette came by…I’m going home…..why, I don’t know….or for how long…I don’t know….thank you for everything…you are great…..why Bette ever left you, I will never understand……Tina….
Tina walked over to the door, and Bette opened it for her…..they walked out into the parking lot…
“Where is your car?” asked Tina..
“At home….I hitched a ride…”
“With who?”
“Noone.” said Bette…she didn’t realize that Tina wouldn’t trust ‘Noone.’
“Who the ***** is noone…I swear Bette, If you had Candace bring you over here…I will ***** walk back in that door and never speak to you again…”
“Alice………….Alice brought me over here…she came by before work to check on me…”
“Exactly, how much have you had to drink? You ***** reak of alcohol…I didn’t want to say anything..but I can’t stand it anymore…”
“Enough…..but not enough to think that I don’t love you…”
Bette and Tina got into Tina’s car and started down the street…a few minutes later, Tina pulled into the driveway….they got out and went into the house….
“My god Bette, what did you do?” asked Tina as she saw that all of the glass that had been in the living room was lying broken on the floor…..
“I kinda had a fit…”
“Obviously…*****…don’t take your shoes off until I clean this up…” said Tina…
“I will clean it up…” said Bette
“No….you go take a shower…you need one…” said Tina as she walked into the kitchen to retrieve a trash bag…
Bette went into the bathroom and shut the door…
Tina heard the shower began, and she sat down on the floor and sobbed….’why the ***** am I here? Bette has ruined our lives together…..’
Just then, there was a knock on the door….Tina walked over to it…..and opened it..
“What the ***** are you doing here?”
“Um…I’m sorry..” said Candace…
“You have no ***** right to be here….” and before Candace knew it, Tina had pulled her hand back, balled up her fist, and hit her square in the jaw…
Candace hit the floor of the porch….Bette heard all of the commotion and got out of the shower….wrapped up in a towel, she walks into the hallway, and sees Tina on top of Candace, steadily hitting her in the face….in the ribs…anywhere she could….
“*****…Tina…no.” she screamed as she ran to Candace’s rescue and pulled Tina up….Tina steadily trying to hit Candace one last time….
“Tina…stoppit…Goddammit, stop it…” she said as she grabbed her by the shoulders and made her face Bette…..”Please baby, calm down….don’t do this…”
Tina pulled away from Bette and went into the house…..”Candace, my god…are you okay?” asked Bette as she helped her up…
“Other than a busted lip, and a few broken ribs….I’m okay, I guess.”
“I am so sorry…” said Bette.
“No…I am sorry…I shouldn’t have come back….I can’t keep doing this….I won’t be back…I promise….” said Candace as she walked away….
Bette walked back inside and shut the door……Tina was in the kitchen….
“Why the ***** was she here?” screamed Tina..
“I don’t know….” said Bette standing there dripping from the shower that she didn’t get to finish.
“I swear Bette, you had better start talking before I walk out that door and never look back…” screamed Tina.
“Tina, I don’t know why she was here…but she said that I would never have to see her again…”
“Oh no….you aren’t just going to ***** her, ruin our life, then she walks out….she keeps ***** up, and she will never walk again.”
“Tina, you got your licks in, now calm down.” said Bette as Tina began to pace the floor.
“You got your licks in too.” said Tina nastily…
“Stop it..” said Bette as she walked to Tina….and put her arms around her…
“Get off of me..” said Tina as she pushed Bette away…”Don’t ***** touch me.”
“Tina, please..”
“If you touch me again….I will leave…I swear…don’t push me..”
“Okay…I’m going to leave you alone now….I’ll go finish my shower…”
Bette turned to walk back to the bathroom……
“Bette……” yelled Tina…
Bette came running out of the bathroom and into the kitchen……”Tina?” she yelled…
