"Finish what you wanted to say Bette," she said very quietly, seeing that what was on her mind was important.
Taking a few calming breaths, Bette lifted her head again, looking into Tina’s eyes again. "T … I just wanted to tell you that … I love you. I’ll always love you. I know now how awfully I fucked this all up, but I wasn’t thinking. There’s no excuse for what I did, so I won’t even pretend. Just know that … given the chance … I would be by your side until the day I die. I don’t care what that means – how many arguments, how many bouts of abstinence – honestly. They say that you don’t know what you have until it’s gone, and I didn’t understand that until now."
Tina nodded slowly, seeing how truthful those words were. In a way, she had felt the same thing. She never knew how difficult it was to sleep alone until Bette wasn’t holding her at night. Her tears subsided and she understood what Bette meant, accepting her explanation for once in a very long time.
"I didn’t understand how much apart of me you are until I screwed everything up," Bette added, leaning in a bit further again, taking both of Tina’s hands in hers again, softly. "You’re so much apart of me. It’s really incredible. This bond we share – it’s not an average thing, T. You know, I’ve never heard of one person so deeply connected with another in my entire life. Not in movies, not in books … Just us."
Tina smiled, taking a deep breath in and letting it out. "Just us?"
Bette smiled back, really allowing herself to breathe. "Yeah. I’ve never even seen a bond so strong – between anyone – and I know that I’ll do anything in my power to give this another chance. I’ll find a better work schedule. One that doesn’t require I stay in my office until all hours of the night. I know how much you always hated that."
A single tear escaped over Tina’s eyelashes, and she tried to hide her sudden outburst of emotion, nodding her head gently. "I did hate that."
Bette couldn’t sit by and watch Tina cry any more, and leaned in completely, bringing Tina into her arms and holding her there. She felt so complete.

Hi GR, That was extraordinary.I love how Bette and Tina talked things through before they make hot sexy love.The transferring between scenes brought up so some delicious and dramatic images.Bette and Tina needed this to happen before they could start on the long road to rebuild their relationship.Bette had to take ownership of her affair and prove to Tina that Tina is the only one who holds her heart.Tina had to hear this.Just perfect.More wonderful writing from a favorite author.Thank you so much for sharing.Your Loyal Fan.
