How do I do this, T?
How do I go on without you?
How do I go back to my life, pretending that I’m alright?… Pretending that my life hasn’t changed forever?
I don’t remember, you know… What it was like… Before you.
Because my whole life has become you.
It is your face, your smile, and your laugh… It is your embrace, your kisses, and your touch on my body…
It is all that you are… All that I already know, and all that I have yet to discover.
I live on our phone calls and webcam exchanges. I live on the hope of a letter every day. I live on those memories that we have created together. In such a short time… Yet worth a lifetime.
I go to sleep elated because I know you will be joining me in my dreams. And I wake up every morning with the resolve to not let the day go without hearing your voice.
My life suspended its course the moment you disappeared from my sight in that airport, and I have been holding my breath ever since.
I cannot believe I let you go that day.
Yet, I know why I did.
I couldn’t sleep that night… You had cried yourself to sleep as I cradled you in my arms, and I couldn’t bear the idea of closing my eyes and let the night take me away from you. Not that night… Our last night.
The call had arrived late in the evening, and as I had watched you try to reign in the turmoil raging inside you, I already knew what it meant. I knew that our time together had come to an end.
As I watched you sleep, you cheeks still wet from your tears, but finally soothed in the safety of my arms, it suddenly hit me.
They needed you back… They needed to feel you close in this difficult time. And no one better than me could better understand what it felt like… To need you.
I had to let you go…
So I got up and arranged everything… My heart breaking, and my tears relentless.

Oh I hope they aren’t going to be apart for too long! Thanks for the post. You 2 are doing a fantastic job with this!
Madam, for your Bette, my Tina will climb the highest mountain, swim the deepest ocean and cross the warmer deserts! For you have depicted the most tender, loving and incredibly romantic character there is. Can I really confess to being jealous of a fictitious character! Well you what I will…..I confess I am jealous of Tina! There is about a million places in your letter where my heart has jumped and until the very last line my heart was pounding as hard as the hearts of these two, were! This is how outstanding this piece was! You are unbelievably talented and I thank you too for agreeing to co-write with me! xxxx
That was incredibly awesome. And that was before I even reached the love scene. I love the role play in the garden you can only be that silly with the people you love easily able to let your guard down without no hesitation. Wow I don’t know how I’m going to go on until the next post. You both are doing a wonderful job. Can I just say Kword this is the best chapter you have written and that’s why it was probably the hardest.
Your letter was a full romantic circle! In Paris and in love!
Absolutely magnificient!!!! Both of you continue to amaze me with your writing and this letter just took my breath away with its love, the playfulness in the garden completely and totally laced with love, gallantry and the wondrous romance of a time period gone by. Can’t you just see Bette in one of the uniforms of the Musketeer emblazoned with the crest of the House of D’Artagnan, with the sword of her father and his hat doused while in a low bow to her Queen, her Royal Highness Christina. Beautiful chapter. Can hardly wait for more because you continue to outdo the last letter. This story must somehow be made into a book for all to enjoy. It would be a number one best seller. Truly beautiful love story. Thanks for posting.
Thud!…. *_* Kword… Even though I got bump in the head after hit the floor because of reading this, I would be still happily smile afterward! … :-D This one is simply blow me away! Those cute silliness of the role play and the love declaration inside the private garden… And the playfulness of Tina which is so endearing yet so romantic when left Bette the sketch-which maybe will become the first art in display inside the Bette Porter gallery? ;-)… OMG.. I would read this again later during the day, and looks like I would never get tired to re-read this letter! I guess Tina “herself” would treasure it more ;-) and about the tips of the places in Paris… Thanks! It’s inspirational! We’ll have one route under the title of this story – “epistolary route” … Let’s just hope that nobody is being arrested for breaking the rule by jumping over to closed area :-p lol … This story is getting better and better … And again, you two fabulous writers are really amazing!! :-) you two made me wondering: is romantic part of your genes or what…?? ;-) Looking forward to the next letter… :-)
Awesome as always.
That was just aboslutely romantic and beautiful. Damn that was good. Excellent thank you.

God, Kword. That was probably one of the most romantic letters ever written. It had everything from being funny, to sexy, to sweet, to flirty, to just so heartfelt. I’m in love with your Bette…fanfic or not!
Hi Kword, That was so beautiful and majestic. There was love bound up with every word, sentence and scene. It is true romance; heartfelt and wonderfully realized. More please and many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
