Adams Porter Household…
Bette is still on cloud nine after Tina’s reassurances and their discussion about taking the next steps to her becoming Angie’s parent legally. She enters her dark home and hangs her keys on the hook next to the door. After grabbing a bottle of water from the kitchen, she heads down the hall.
Bette stops in, checks on Mickey, and smiles when she sees all the tell-tale signs that he’s in deep sleep. She gently kisses his head of curls and then carefully walks out of the room. As she sips her water, Bette steps into the master bedroom and sees her wife lying in bed with her back turned to the door. She quickly undresses and climbs into bed, gently snuggles behind Michelle, and throws her arm around her waist.
”You finally decided to come home, huh?” Michelle quietly asks.
”Hey…. didn’t mean to wake you….”
”You didn’t… I was up, mostly….”
They are both silent for a few beats before Michelle speaks again. ”I’m sorry…”
Bette shakes her head. ”I’m the one that’s sorry… I overreacted….”
Michelle turns around in Bette’s arms. ”I overstepped; you were right to be upset…”
”I shouldn’t have said those things to you…. especially about not caring about your feelings… I care, honey, you know that, don’t you?”
Michelle gently nods. ”I do….”
Bette gently shrugs. ”I’m just scared… I just got Angie back. I guess I get a little nervous about rocking the boat where Tina’s concerned. I think a small part of me still thinks I’m gonna wake up one morning and find out that she’s disappeared again…”
Michelle reaches up and runs her hand through Bette’s hair. ”There’s no way I would let her do that to you a second time… I would track her down my damn self if I had to….”
They both chuckle.
Michelle studies her wife closely for the first time, and her smile falters. ”You saw her tonight,” she says as more of a statement than a question.
Bette’s brows crinkle in confusion. ”Yeah, how’d you know?”
Michelle gently shrugs. ”Just a hunch, I guess…”
”She was at The Planet waiting for her to go order, and we hashed out a schedule for Angie…. I would love to go over it with you so that we’re on the same page…”

Dani and Michelle are not happy, but Dani is much more selfish, inconsiderate and self-conscious. On the other hand, it’s great that Bette and Tina are no longer arguing but are strengthening their bonds.
❤️❤️❤️
My 1st thought is about there may be trouble brewing for Michelle if she ends up w/partying w/her home girls at the teachers conf in San Diego
I hope Michelle called Olivia and told her that she would not be joining her and Ava for dinner but would be going to Tina’s for spaghetti night. That would be the polite thing to do.
For a news reporter, Dani has very little memory. And to egg Bette on with the indication that she has made a lot of money? Not very appropriate dinner conversation.
In Dani’s defense, it is not easy to carry on a long-distance relationship. And knowing you are leaving the next morning for a long period of absence is a downer. However, it doesn’t get any easier when she is not enjoying her time with Tina as much as she can. And a part of that is to socialize with Michelle and Tina while Bette is with Angie and Mickey. A part is the welcoming of their guest even if that is not what you want to be doing. Dani’s conversation at the dinner table seamed to be aimed at impressing Bette or even make Bette jealous. And it was not very effective.
Michelle? So Michelle believes that Bette was a party-hearty girl before she came along? Is that really what she wants Tina to know about Bette? Humm…
Thanks for the update. Anxious to read more.
I think Michelle is tryna send Tina a message that Bette would “still” be a playa if disappointed and sex is withheld. She’s trying to pre-empt any possibility of attraction arising btwn Tibette.
Dani???? She knows how attractive and alluring Tina can be AND her nuturing nature is non-threating which makes Tina even more attractive.
Jst feels like Tina may be more reserved than Dani woud like. Noticed that Tina has not entered an excusive ship /Danni ad wans Bette to be Angie’s legal Mom
When someone moves in with a romantic interest, is there no longer a presumption of an exclusive relationship? Maybe I am just old… but I always assume that people who live together have an exclusive relationship unless they have an agreement that they don’t.
I must say DumplinT, that you use your imagination and assumptions of who you think these characters are far more than I do. I am reading the story and allowing it to tell me who these people are. I don’t know that Dani believes that Tina is knock down gorgeous. She has never said. All she has said about Bette is that she is tall. And now she indicating that she knows Bette has money. And she has indicated that she is not liking this long distance relationship and is a little worried about Tina’s dealings with Bette and Angie. That to me says… Dani is aware that Bette and Tina had a long term relationship and have history together. The only reason Tina is in LA is because of her job, otherwise, Tina would still be in Florida living her life with Dani and Angie.
As far as the dinner conversation. Dani needs to remember that Angie is 6 years old and she is listening to every word at the table. She is absolutely enamored with her other mother and anything negative about Bette will not play well with Angie. So, proceeding on with the conversation about Bette doing well at her gallery and Bette shutting down that conversation? That may be nothing… but sometimes a six year old will read the emotions behind the statements and realize that Bette and Dani are not best friends. How does Angie then respond to that?
Seems to me Dani really is just self-centered and is resenting not being the center of the universe for Tina. Newsflash: Dani will never be the center of Tina’s universe. She has her job and her child and she has her friends and her own well being with will take center stage from time to time. When the time is appropriate, I am sure Tina will give Dani the attention she desires.
Thanks for responding to my comment…
