A crush, a meeting then love?? – Chapter 48
Chapter 48
They sit in silence for a little while, just embracing each other. Suddenly Tina starts to cry again.
“Baby?” Bette says softly, stroking her back.
It takes a few minutes before Tina is able to reply.
“She’s gone I won’t be able to see her anymore.” Tina cries out, grabbing Bette tighter.
“I know baby.” Bette doesn’t really know what to say, so she just holds her tight, showing her that she’s there for her.
The crying eases up after a little while.
“I’m sorry” Tina says.
“Baby, you have nothing to be sorry about. If you need to cry, then cry. It’s not healthy to keep it inside.” Bette replies, stroking Tina’s face softly.
“I have to go and see dad today.” Tina says.
“Then I’ll come with you.” Bette says without hesitation.
Tina looks at her.
“Baby, is that a good idea? I mean” Tina starts.
“Tina, what happened last night? And this morning? You can’t keep me out of this. We’re getting married Tina, your father have to accept that sooner or later. Show him that we’re happy and in love. This might be the right time.” Bette suggests.
Tina thinks for a second.
“I don’t know. I’m not sure I want to put him through this now, after loosing his wife!” Tina replies.
Bette bows her head down, she closes her eyes.
“Tina, do you want me to go home? To leave?” Bette asks looking into Tina’s eyes.
Tina is surprised by Bette’s question, so she doesn’t answer right away.
Bette stands up.
“Tina, why don’t you go and do what you need to do. I’ll go home.” Bette says and stands up and starts walking towards the door.
“Bette? No.” Tina says in a raised voice.
Bette stops, still her back towards Tina.
“Don’t go.” Tina says standing up and walks up to Bette.
“Then why are you doing this? Shutting me out?” Bette asks as she turns around facing Tina. Tina looks at her, a tear escapes her eyes. She starts to cry again softly.
“Because I don’t want dad to hurt you, like he hurt me.” Tina finally revealed her fear and the reason for her actions and choices the last day.
“Tina, you don’t have to protect me. He’s not going to hurt me, I won’t let him.” Bette says, slowly walking up to Tina and slides her arms around Tina’s waist, pulling her close. “I’m coming with you. We’re going as a couple. He just has to deal.” Bette says, looking right into Tina’s teary eyes. She wipes away a few tears then kisses her on the cheek.

Great chapter, I hope T’s dad comes around.

Lauren…I’m glad Tina asked Bette to stay. But I’m really glad Tina finally told her father what she wanted to tell him after 6 years. Hope he decides to accept Tina like her mother did. Thanks for the update…please continue.
FABULOUS CHAPTER LAUREN…HOPEFULLY DAD WILL GET OVER IT BEFORE HE KICKS THE BUCKET..THANKS FOR THE UPDATE…
very sad. and hard. thanks for the update.
wow..powerful..Tina need a break she is going through so much she deserve to be happy and have peace with Bette to enjoy their time together and about papa bear he deserved every word Tina said hope he change his mind and ask Tina for forgiveness i am glad Bette was at her side..ok amazing chappy i will wait for more tonight right?..lol :o)
very emotional chapter. love how tina stuck with bette and stood up to her father. hopefully it will sink into his thick skull and he will come around. If not too bad for him.
Unfortunately, Tina’s father is very much like the majority of str8 society. I have yet to figure out why it is such a big deal to them. What is so wrong with love….in any form?
Tina told him!!! I hope dad listens. Parents need their children just as much as we need them. Short, but it hit its mark.
Damn this is sad, and emotion. I like what Tina said to her father and hope he will listen to her. Post soon, thanks!
Lots of emotion. Good for Tina, she did her mother proud by standing up to her father. It reinforced what her mother was trying to fix when she found her way back to Tina.
way to go tina… i wonder if he knew her mom went to see her and they talked and made up… i hope he comes around… another great chapter
Here was a great piece of writing, Lauren, really it was.
The sadder thing to say is that it was particularly realistic and very acurately depicted. But that’s – alas -indubitable : Tina’s father is representative of too many people wor whom there has to be only one road to follow in life, the so-called “normal” one, and for whom even true love isn’t an “excuse”. I pity them, behind the anger, because they are people who denied the essential things in this world to only obey to blind “morality” rules. Even if they have to sacrifize their own family for that…
Now of course I hope this man will endly think about what the daughter he renounced has so rightly said to him.
Everything Tina’s said was absolutely right and if someone had to feel guilty for Mrs Kennard’s death, it would be this stobborn stoneheart man. Because his wife, too submissive to him and to society’s consideration, was secretely tortured all along these 6 years…
You also showed, on a beautifully subtle way, something essential here : the only presence of Bette next to her was enough to bring force to Tina and we all know she certainly wouldn’t have find so much strength to talk to her father the way she did if her beloved half wasn’t been there to give her her silent but powerful support.
Wonderful work, Lauren, intense and true. You master your story with talent, I mean it. Thank you !!
That was a hard, emotional chapter…and you painted the picture real well. I hope that her dad will come around, but Tina is right…she needs to put down her foot now.
I hope that you’re having fun at shool! Let us know how that is going. Kiitos!
highly emotional…
