“So this is nice”
“Yeah I always loved your cooking” I reply a compliment regarding her culinary skills was well within my self imposed rules
“Actually Bette I was talking about us….in the same room….talking”
Of course I know she is being sarcastic I have successfully with my non committal and one word answers avoided the us talk. I’m not stupid I know it’s inevitable her attempts thus far have been tentative…her patience abounding but she was no angel and my time was running out.
“Ah” Again I berate myself for the one word reply as I catch the flash of disappointment in her eyes before I drop my head, the contents of my plate the only witness to my look of disquiet.
“How was work today”
I inwardly smile at her change of tact….normally a topic I would gladly and annoyingly talk about for hours given the chance however I hadn’t stepped a foot in the gallery for two days, poor Kit I had worked her to the point of exhaustion getting this place ready.
“Very busy” I know she’s expecting me to continue, my heart just wasn’t in it.
She sighs deep, heavy “Excuse me”
“Where are you going” My question hangs in the air and goes unanswered but I am relieved when she heads towards the back of the house rather than the front door.
I repeatedly bang my palm against my forehead “Fuck…fuck….fuck”
I am aware that my actions are nothing short of cruel.
I’d asked her to stay yet here I am behaving like a complete coward….too afraid to let her in……too afraid to let her go.
My cell alerting me that I have received a text breaks my thoughts, fucking Alice if she’s asking me how it’s going I am going to wring her neck… I surprised, relieved, curios that it’s from Tina
If I said you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me
Have I ever read anything so corny….no….and yet it takes me a couple of seconds to realize I’m doing a very respectable impression of the Joker.
Where are you
I send my response as I wander into my bedroom expecting Tina to be hiding in there. I look under my bed as it wouldn’t be the first time she has frightened the shit out of me by hiding under her bed and grabbing my ankles….my cell buzzes again a second after I discover she’s not there, I perch myself on the bed.

So glad to see your post. Looking forward to more.
Hungry?! Starved! Thanks for the tiny morsel! Regular feedings would be lovely, but family comes first, enjoy the kids! PPS!
Great Place to stop!!! Have fun with your kids. Thanks PPS
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting today! I’ve been waiting for an update to pull me out of lurking! You’ve done it again…making my heartache for these two. pps!
About time Bette talked…or their relationship is over b4 it barely commenced.
Exactlywhatjp22said!
Glad they had a little talking but, Bette needs to tell her WHY she feels this way. And she should have told her that she could have everything she wants also. Gosh, hope they talk really soon. Thanks for posting.
Wow. I’m not sure there’s anything I can say that no one else has said yet, except this: Where’s that NC chapter, Skim? I can think of 21 reasons for it lol
Keep them talking and work thing out!
AH!!! come on you can’t leave us like that.
And I’ll second jp22 comment. SOON
Nice stopping point…..baaaaad Skimmer! Thanks for the post though. This is such a sweet painful story.
Brilliant, awesome update. I’m glad they’re off the phone and talking face to face. Now let’s hear what Bette’s fear is all about. Thank you Skimmer for posting :)
Well at least they are talking…..but they just need to trust their love the rest will take care of itself
I would light up with pleasure now! :o) This was a good chapter like always.
Skimmy…I have never known you to be so cruel…telling us you’ll not be able to post much and then leaving us with that wacking big cliff hanger! OMG now we have to wait to hear the story where we are finally going to see why Bette doesn’t want children. Well, I’ll just have to steel myself for the long wait…try to write something when they go to bed please.
Diddo as per jp22. PPS
Hey Skimmer! I’m all caught up now and popped in to say I’m loving this story. I’d repeat what jp said but…I just can’t get enough air in me to say that all at once! Thanks for taking the time to post :)
OMG, you had me hanging on every single word. I can feel their pain every inch of the way. Just fantastic.
Thanks for the update. This is so heartbreaking to see them struggling like this. I hope that in telling her story Bette can get some closure about whatever it was that happened and open her mind to the possibility of being a parent….Please…..
