Why do birds
“Bette… do you want something to drink?” Tina softly asked trying to pull Bette out of her thoughts in a gentle way.
Bette immediately but slowly turned around… Tina could still see traces of an old pain in her eyes and she was more than intrigued.
“Maybe coffee if you have any?” Bette said still trying to recompose herself from her trance.
“Yeah I think we both need some of that… and please make yourself at home… I’ll be right back.”
Home… what and interesting choice of words… if I could only be a part of this home…
That was all Bette kept on thinking while Tina disappeared into the kitchen, leaving her standing in the middle of the living room… Bette turned her head and she found once again that extremely beautiful couch that was probably extremely comfortable as well… the temptation to sink in there and forget about the world was too big… but she was there for Tina, she was going to listen to what the woman that had turned into the centre of her every thought for the last two days had to say… she was dreading the conversation that was going to take place any minute now… but isn’t it scarier a life full of chances not taken? Those that follow you around no matter where you are or who you are?
Fucking what ifs… Bette was mumbling while she took a few steps towards a table that was sitting next to a window. She took the chair away from its original position and slowly sat… trying not to make any loud noise… her head was starting to ache…
What a nice hangover I’m gonna have tomorrow…
“What?” Tina said trying to catch up with Bette’s mumbling while she was re-entering the room with two large mugs of coffee.
Bette was startled by Tina’s voice.
“Nothing… I was just admiring what nice things you’ve hung… like that painting over there (pointing at it)… you can almost feel its sorrow.”
“Ohh yeah… that one was made by a very dear friend… she gave it to me after…” she suddenly stopped thinking that this was not the way she wanted to say this to Bette, because she felt the need to explain herself first and also because it was still hurting her… and it would probably never stop hurting…

Interesting. Glad to see that you are back to posting. I hope that Tina learns what really being in love is about..and its not something she described above as having taken place in her previous relationships. She may have loved those guys.. but it doesn’t sound like the “in love” kind of love. I hope that Bette and Tina can discover that together. PPS.
Damn I can just imagine how tough it was for Tina to bring all of that back.
Wow intense pps.
WOW!!! That was so tough on Tina. I just hope Tina gives Bette a chance. Thanks
I am loving this story. I can understand Tina having doubts and is scared. Great post PPS
WOW that was good! Hope Tina stays with Bette , and Bette can help her! :DGreat chapter and PPS
Possibly what Tina has not seen is that her path through life has purposly led her to Bette.
Either Tina need to take the LEAP or LEAVE Bette alone. Grossed about her past relationships, but I can get over it if she wakes up and embrace Bette totally or not at all.
enjoying this; just one thing…i wonder if u could put a chapter number on; sometimes i have to do catch up readings and i’m not sure if i’ve read a chapter or not…thx
Great chapter, Anne, and intense indeed. Thank you for sharing this story with us. I’m enjoying this very much.
Tina has some baggage, don’t we all. Its not her fault Eric died, unfortunately we don’t have that much control over people’s lives. But it took alot for her to tell Bette. Bette is our rock and will become Tina’s if she lets her. Tina will have to understand that sometimes the rock needs to be held to. They’ll get there, I have faith.
Damn that was sad for Tina and hope she will stay with Bette and let Bette help her go through this. Let them talk more and work everything out. Please post soon, thanks!
Fear of opening up and fear of losing your heart to someone you desperately love has got to be the hardest thing to do in life once you have been hurt. Thanks for the update.
