Coming up for air – part twelve
Tina stood up and went to Bette. She kneeled on the step below Bette looking straight into her eyes.
“I this case… in the case of you and me and Candace… I’m the one who has to do the forgiving… and I believe that I will forgive… I’m not there yet… but I WILL get there. Please Bette… don’t give up just yet…”
“It doesn’t feel like we’re ever going to get passed this…” Bette said.
“I know you feel like that right now… I’m so sorry I lashed out at you like that, Bette. The anger gets the best of me sometimes… I am really truly sorry…”
“…it’s ok…”
“No, it really isn’t… but Bette, you seemed so hopeful earlier… please find your way back to that. It makes me feel hopeful too.”
Bette said nothing. She just gazed at that face right in front of her, the face of her dreams, her nightmares, her every waking moment.
“But when will that be, Tina? What will it take for us to get passed this…?”
“I don’t think forgiving is a conscious decision any of us can make. It’s a process we have to work on every day. I will forgive… some day soon it’s not going to be the thing I think of, when I hear your name. If we work at it, some day we’ll have created new memories together… and all the new stuff combined with all the good things we already share will bring us forward. That’s when it’s forgiven. And then this is going to be behind us.”
“… easy peasy, huh…?” Bette said with a wry laugh.
“No not easy… but possible…”
“You hurt me, you know…”
“I know… I shouldn’t have…”
“No…. so it’s possible, huh?” Bette asked with half a smile.
“Yes, I think so…” Tina said and took both of Bette’s hands. Their fingers interlaced. Tina leant back and pulled Bette up with her. They stood facing each other a little closer than friends do.
“Come have dinner with me…” Tina started.
“Shit… dinner. I completely forgot about the fish… It’s probably ruined by now…”
“Nah, I took it out of the oven… come on,” Tina said and took a step up the porch not letting go of Bette’s left hand.
Bette followed right behind, still a little overwhelmed by the fluctuations of Tina’s moods.

Wonderful…thank you.
Love this story – very sweet and touching
You’ve done a great job w/this story. Their love is so deep. It’s difficult to think of why they’ve faltered.
well done ankar, I don’t know how I missed ch11 but I went back to read it….Its not easy for T to get over B’s betrayal and I understand her running to Henry and Mikey or anywhere…patience and some love will help mend T’s broken heart and mend her confidence I hope…PPS
Yes you were right something good did come from Tina’s outburst. I was really worried for a moment, but they talked about what they were feeling and that is important. I love how it wasn’t just Bette initiating the talking or the touching which is a positive sign. They belong together and this was a good step in that direction. Keep posting.
yay!!!!!!!!!!! I totally loved this chapter… please post soon!!
I just found and read this wonderful story from the beginning. PPS.
I love it, the love between them is definate and is getting hot. Please keep it up.
this was very touching and hopefully, their relationship will heal soon…thank you
What are u talking about “if” i read this chapter? Its WHEN i read u’r new chapters. Just to clarify that :) U had me a little scared from Tina blowing up on Bette, just for a sec. I thought this chapter was great. I’m glad they are starting to work things out and get closer. I’m kinda worried about Henry though. Hopefully he wont mess around with Tina’s emotions toward Mikey. Looking forward to u’r next post. So PPS.
either henry is not going to let tina see mikey or he filled his head with things like she hates you now… and the kid will not want to see her… glad she will be going to bettes after… i have a feeling she will need that shoulder… please continue
Very nice job writing this story.
Bette and Tina talking openly and honestly with each other—got to love it. I guess they both have to realize that the pain they put each other through isn’t going to go away that quickly, it will take time and work on both their parts to be able to put that pain behind them and move forward. Since the love is still there they can do it together. Please don’t have Henry use his own son to take his hurt out on Tina because Mickey is just an innocent child in all of this and two wrongs don’t make a right. I can’t get enough of your wonderfull story telling anker, so please post again soon and thanks!
Great chapter.
I really love how they are reconnecting. There is some intense time but also some special moments time. It is going to take this kind of remembering and working through the pain to get to a spot that they can once again share their lives with each other. I love this front seat view of my favorite couple working to be friends first and hopefully lovers and wives next.
God I finally got caught up on this story and I luv it. I knew you would start bringing them togther. A great job I might add.More please!
Another Great Chapter!!!! THank you PPS
I am enjoying this story alot…please give us more soon.
This was a lovely chapter, after the storm, the calm and love arrived and Tina did it so good, if in the last chpater i was a little anger with her with this one i love her more. It will be difficult for Tina her meeting with Micky but Bette will be there for support her. thanks for this lovely post
Great love B&tT!
