“Did I disturb you T?” Bette suddenly had the feeling that maybe Tina didn’t want to talk to her now.
“No, no,” Tina answered a little to quickly, “I just put Angie to bed and was enjoying the quiet,” she responded truthfully this time. Tina actually enjoyed talking to Bette when she was away. It was as if they were able to communicate more easily because they were forced to.
“Have you been sleeping okay?” Tina asked sincerely.
“You know I don’t do that well without you baby,” Bette answered softly. It was true, neither of them slept well without each other and it was one of the many reasons why Tina had agreed to move back.
“What about you, has she been keeping you up this week?” asked Bette.
“Nah, I think she’s getting better, she seems to be sleeping all the way through now. I’ve only been up at four AM once this week. But I do miss you too,” Tina felt herself relaxing and moved herself so that she was now leaning against the headboard of the bed.
Bette felt Tina’s emotional shift and sighed audibly at the fact that she was still able to reach at least some small part of her.
“What are your plans for the rest of the week?” Bette asked
“Oh I don’t know just yet,” Tina lied. She had already decided that she was going to spend the day with Henry at the beach.
Not knowing why and not wanting to know the reasons why, Bette felt that Tina was not being completely truthful.
“We really need to try to tell each other what’s going on Tina,” Bette said softly again.
“I know,” sighed Tina, “It’s just” she rubbed her forehead tensely, “It’s still hard, and I don’t mean to hurt you honestly Bette, it just happens.” She continued. Truth was, Tina had never been as open with anyone before in her life, ever. What she had given to Bette, (or maybe Bette took it) was herself completely, without question or hesitation.
When Bette broke that trust, she wondered if she would ever feel complete again. There was absolutely no doubt in her mind that she loved Bette more than anything in the world, ‘if she could only get past this ***** trust thing’ she thought.
“We just have to take it one day at a time,” she said aloud to Bette
‘One day at a time,’ thought Bette, ‘how many more times do I have to hear that whenever she wants to shut me out?’ Bette sighed audibly and suddenly found herself feeling exhausted.
“Okaywell I’m gonna turn in for the night Tina,” the use of her name was not missed by Tina and she realised that once again she had hurt the person she claimed to love more than life itself.
“Okay babe,” Tina sighed, “Call me tomorrow?”
“Sure, Goodnight.”
“Sleep well.” Tina ended, and once the phone was securely in its cradle said out loud to the room, “God Dammit!”

if Tina dosent want to give her heart completely to Bette it better dont give at all..cuz i dont think Bette will be happy for share her with someone else and a man??? IC is really crazy on the real show and if the spoilers are true is awful and show no respect for the Bette and Tina fans..i hope your story goes in a good direction..thanks and post soon
Oh the joys of the phone convo when you can feel the other person lying to you!!!
How stupid is tina to think she can pull that wool over bettes eyes. She wanted change but doesn’t want to deal with the change now?? And lets take the time and think about your kid while your out running around with this man tina. The most important thing bette has to lose is angel. We all know when tina wants to be harsh she has a good time doing it.
ohh wow, my heart is hurting! I love your story, just read it and am looking forward to more :)
I understand that if IC takes the B&T story this route. It does make sense, but in my opinion I think that Tina should just leave Bette and Bette should not take that from Tina. It is so much easier to revert back to pain then to move forward into the unknown (especially in the lesbian community from what I have seen). If B&T truely love/loved each other they need to let go of each other for the sake of their mental health since an open relations is what T thinks is best for her. *stepping off soapbox* On a lighter note – excellent writing. Keep up the great job.
Hey there.
I have to say that this story breaks my heart, which a, means that you are a great writer and b, if this story will be pursued by IC it would be a great shame.
It is my impression that the next season was supposed to be more about gender and less about silly black and white Jenny footage, something I, by the way, believe would do wonders for the popularity of the show. If that is the case it seems irrational to pursue the breakup of Bette and Tina instead of exploring gender roles and parenthood. It is easier to portray the early stadies of divorce than, say, exploring the beginning of a new way of being parents.
In your story Tina’s charater is totally irresponsible and unthoughtful as far as the newborn baby is concerned, something which I consider to be a bit far feached, in the context of the show that is. It would have been more plausible if she had been with a man instead of Helena, whereas now it seems staged and unnatural.
Would it not be more interesting if finding back and finding new roles in the partnership would be done through the experience of parenting. For example, Bette would find back to Tina sexually by experiencing a new side of herself in conjunction with reacting to Tina’s new found strength and general fortitude and vice versa.
It would, on a more political level, also be more interesting to ask the questions concerning the challenges of being parents hetero or gay when it comes to working hours, maternity leave and pay. I guess what I am saying is keep exploring this Tina but keep in mind that breaking new ground as a writer is not just done by breaking in a new stallion to a story.
good post…this sory is great…please post soon…
Okay I’ve caught up with your story. A most interesting take on B & T’s relationship post baby and the breakup. I can see Tina being unfulfilled but I’m not sure I can see her asking for an open relationship. But hey it’s your story so keep going. I’d like to see where your version of B & T go. Also, very good writing.
If I was Tina I would be very guilty and afraid. Her friends are all over the place. If Bette find out she will be out. I believe if I was Bette I would be looking myself. she know how and Tina is trying to find out how to be a player. I believe a light when off in Bettes head with the baby step thing. Go Bette and try to be happy.
I just dont get it…She’s gay!..and Henry is a guy..Poor Bette, Trajic how sad life can end up..I’d think that after Candace, Tina would want to have Bette’s full attention..guess not..Bad Tina..I luv it…Post sOOn..
I am not sure I like the direction this is taking, but your story is very good. Please spare us the heartache of having to see Tina get involved with a guy. I would probably be able to understand if it’s a girl. Post soon.
Bette knows Tina is becoming more distant and deceitful. Bette – is your radar still working and what happened to your backbone?
This is painful to read and difficult to accept. An outstanding chapter but I don’t know how much more I can take.
Damn this is sad and hurt to see these 2 likt this. Post soon, thanks!
I have to say i don’t like this Tina very much and i hope Bette won’t put up with it fot too long. Interesting story though.
Keep going – it’s going well, really well. I would still love to see Tina really fall on her face here … not because I’m mean but because she’s holding Bette to an impossible, improbable standard, one she cannot possibly hope to meet herself… utterly unfair of her but very Tina-like. You’re drawing her very well, by the way, excellent writing there. Would love you see you let Bette reclaim herself and tell Tina to shove off … I think I saw a glimpse here with the “why does she always tell me baby steps” type of thing — bravo Bette. Anyway, great story, keep going … and one last comment – some women do go back to men. Lots and lots don’t. Some people cheat and it all falls apart. Some people cheat and they put it back together.
So far So good. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us. Please post soon!!!
crush…a man whoa ok..lets c where u take us
I just caught up and I must say that even though I HATEEEEEEE the spoilers more than anything I’ve ever hated in my life, I’m going to do my best at reading this story without crying lol I just love Bette & Tina together so much that seeing them apart breaks my heart. But the fact that even your story, which is fiction (but then again so is the show except I tend to forget that lol)can effect my heart this way means its great!! So I hope you plan on continuing and I’m just going to think of a happy ending where Tina will realize that men suck and that she can only be intimate with the person she loves- and that is Bette. Can’t wait to see what happens!
Ditto on the feelings about Tina! Hey, i really like this story…It’s so real! Thanks!
I had to catch up on your story which is good it was only 3 chapters….I can’t believe Tina would invite Helena to b&t house ,Bette would be soooo piss off if she knew and this guy thing SCARY…..PLEASE KEEP THIS FABULOUS STORY GOING….THANKS..
I know it will be a bit strained between these two, but I’m feeling it for Bette though. She’s still paying the price, a very high price.
