Tina Kennard couldnt believe it, after seven years, she and Bette were through. She now currently sat in Alices kitchen drinking a cup of coffee thinking about the night before. She knew her and Bettes relationship was falling apart after she had the miscarriage of their son, but what Bette did… cheating on her that was unforgivable…Although she was a very forgiving person this was just something she would never forget. And she knew she might not be able to trust Bette again. Taking another drink she quickly brought her right hand up wiping a tear from her eye as she looked up smiling a little as Alice walked into the room. Late night last night, Al? she asked as Alice walked over to the coffee pot and poured herself a cup, walking over to the table taking a seat across from Tina taking a drink before her eyes shifted to her. Yeah well… Noso how are you doing? She said quickly changing the subject. Im okay, has Bette tried to call? Alice shook her head. No, not yet anyways, do you need anything Ti? Im here for you sweetie. Alice reached across the table and took Tinas hand into her own linking their fingers together. It just hurts; I mean Bette will never know how much she hurt me, and I dont think shell ever know how much she really did. Alice nodded. I understand sweetie, its gonna take some time, but I promise its gonna be okay. Tina gave a small smile to Alice as she arched a brow. So, when you came in last night what were you freaking out about?

Bette Porter sat in her living room on the couch clutching her cell phone in her hand. What the hell was she thinking sleeping with Candace! Of course she knew the relationship had defiantly taken a nose dive, but thinking that Tina wouldnt find out sooner or later? That was stupid, lesbians know this stuff and they dont have to see it! She flipped her phone open and close for the one thousandth time before opening it going through her contact book shed been pacing the floor for hours debating on whether to call her or not, maybe it was too early to call, she knew Tina would need time to heal, she knew things like this were a big deal and wouldnt fix themselves overnight, but she needed to talk to her, she needed to tell her she was sorry even though she knew it wouldnt fix things or make it go away, and most of all she needed to tell her she loved her. Taking in a deep breath she selected Tinas name, pressing send placing the phone up to her ear listing to it ring. She wasnt surprised when Alice answered Tinas phone. Alice, its me let me talk to Tina. She rolled her eyes. Look, I know shes there just let me talk to her. Alice was being stubborn; she knew Alice was pissed at her but she wasnt going to let that stop her. Please Alice! She begged but Alice hung up and Bette tossed her phone on the coffee table.

Back at Alices apartment, she sat the phone down on the table walking back into the room, but low and behold, Tina was gone, she didnt want to hear Bettes name at the moment. Knowing exactly where she would be, she walked to where the chart was, and she sighed walking over to her starring at Bette name and the Ca she tried to write the night before, but broke down before she could finish writing Candace on the board. What did she want? Tina asked pretending to care. Alice sighed; she hated being caught in the middle and being the messenger but for now that was her current role in all this. She wanted to talk to you, I told her you werent here but she didnt fall for it, she even begged me, but I hung up on her. Tina sighed. You didnt have to do that, Al. she said eyes shifted from the bored over to her. Yeah …I know but you arent ready to talk to her Tina sighed again. This was the start to a long beginning.
