My One Special One – Chapter 14
My One Special One – Chapter 14
Previously
The clock struck 7. Two pairs of eyes in separate locations were staring at their cell phones.
Tina picked up her phone and with shaky hand punched in Bette’s number.
Even though Bette was expecting the call, she was still startled when it rang. She saw Tina’s number, took a deep breath, exhaled and put the phone to her ear.
“Hi, T.” Bette said softly.
“Hi, Bette. Can we please do this face to face?” Tina implored.
“I am a coward today, Tina. I can’t.”
Tina sighed. This isn’t at all how she planned this.
“Bette, can you understand that I feel like a coward also?”
“Yes, but I’ve given you permission to say whatever you need to say on the phone. I can’t hold that against you and call you a coward for doing it that way.”
Bette’s hands were sweating.
“I don’t know where to begin – I’m so”
“Tina, just talk to me. I will not pass judgment on you one way or the other.”
“Bette, I come from a place of traditional moments. I’ve balked and fought against many of those things when I felt I had to exert my independence and my personal belief system. It wasn’t always easy and often times I met with some serious, heavy-duty debates, especially with my folks. But through it all and in the end I felt my parents stood by me and were in a very real sense proud of me for standing my ground and fighting for what I believed in.”
“Can I take an educated guess here and say none of those debates concerned your sexual orientation?” Bette asked.
“No, they didn’t. You’re right on that score. But my parents never made disparaging remarks about anybody that society considered ‘different.’ I even remember back in 1996 when they showed the March on Washington for Gay and Lesbian Equality on CNN, my folks remarked something to the effect, “They’re human beings the same as we are. Love is love. What is wrong with these radical right people?”
“But those were other people and not their daughter.” Now it was Bette’s turn to sigh.

Man, I soo wish I had connections that could get you a writing spot on the show. This was just fabulous,so absolutely beautiful. This is exactly what I needed especially after seeing the dismal direction IC is taking our fav couple. thanks RC
Okay, I’ll accept that the S.S. TiBette is sinking due to Hurican Ilene, but thank you sooooo much for being a life preserver. I always look forward to your chapters and you never disappoint. Please post more often…us TiBetters are dying out here!
RC, you always bring me to tears with your writing about these two lovelies. Most especially with your poems and your writings about the thoughts of Misses Fate and Destiny. You are so spot-on with that. LOve it. Thanks for the post.
great you had me pulling out my hair for a min
Great chapter rc really enjoy your story!!!!
Thanks for a wonderful, beautiful Tuesday, You took away the horror of Sunday Thanks
Now i raise my glass to you arceextl!!Thank you for always making me feel warm on the inside and tears in my eyes.
RC..as always that was perfect. Your writing never ceases to amaze me. Bette releasing her fear and declaring her love to Tina was so beautiful. Then Tina coming over and calling her mom and declaring her love for Bette despite her loss of family was breathtaking. There’s no coincidence with that man bumping into Tina. This is related to the drug dealer’s cases. Looking for to the drama this case is going to bring into their lives. Your poem was very fitting and lovely. RC…thanks for this great update and please do continue.
Areceexti, this is a good story and just now came across it via another reader’s mention of it. I read your other one too and was particularly struck by the toast by fate and destiny. I look forward to the next chapter.
arc…that was a fucking beautiful chapter and personally I am in denialville and will keep my hopes high for B & T. Thank you for keeping them happy. post soon
Damn that was awesome and you go Tina. Ok post soon please, thanks!
I should’ve saved this one for home. I freaking had to run to the bathroom so I wouldn’t start bawling in the office. LOL All I can really say is, “GO, TINA!”
Spectacular!!!!…ok, pls one request…a little more fluffy stuff befor the angst that I see your setting us up for…pls just let us bask in this glow for a couple more chapters…pls…..thankyou
Arceextl,Aw suchs baby that was delightful!The build up was perfect as Bette tried to push Tina away before her heart was broken irrevocably. All the while Tina was trying to get a word in edgeways to demonstrate the depth of her love for Bette to the detriment of her family relationships. As for the baddies lurking in all corners, this guy bumping into Tina seems a little suspicious. Particularly as this reminded Tina of a similar event in the recent past. The plot thickens and deepens at every turn. I can’t wait to see where all of these leads go. Please continue soon. Many thanks for this terrific tale. Your Loyal Fan.
The story is so wonderful. Your poem is perfect.
This is such a sweet chapter and it made my cry from happiness. Please continue with the joy and love B&T have for one another.
After all this anguish that you placed in my mind when Tina had to take a choice this worth it! this chapter was amazing the dialogue between Tina and her mother and the way that Bette opened her Fellings to Tina amazing absolutly amazing and so hot too. I am still concerned about this man cause in this chapter he show up again. Post soon.
this was P.E.R.F.E.C.T. such beauty and amazing chemistry…of course we know drama is coming with all those weird men bumping into tina but i hope bette will keep her safe and they will be safe on their way to Forever
Denialville sounds like a beautiful place. Let’s all live there. I can’t bear to watch the show, but it’s comforting to know we have great authors like you who treat our favorite couple with the respect they deserve. Thanks so much.
Wonderful Chapter Honey. Here Is To Our Moment. I Am Very Blessed To Have Been Chosen To Spend Every Moment In Time With You
Yes Tina you made the rigth choise….go Tina go Tina LOL….great chapter again, but I’m a bit worried about that man on the street – please let them be save and crazy in love for ever :o))….More please, this is so great…
