Forged in Fire: Chapter 15

“At all?”
“Not once, T. Not when I graduated college. Not when I got married. Not when I opened a gallery. Not one time when I was sick or hurt. I haven’t heard from her at all. And she just fucking shows up on the doorstep like the gift of Christmas fucking past. What do I do?” asked Bette.
Tina sighed, her mind racing. She lay back on the sofa and pulled Bette into her arms. “Come here,” she said, softly.
Bette cradled her head against Tina’s chest, resting on the soft mounds of her lover’s breasts. The moment she lay down, hot tears began to slip from her eyes. She wrapped her arms around Tina, holding on for dear life. Tina gently stroked her hair, holding Bette close.
“It’s okay to cry,” she whispered.
“I don’t want to cry,” Bette whimpered.
“You have a lot going on inside. How do you feel? Do you feel hot? Do you feel anxious?” asked Tina.
Bette shook her head. “No. No. Just sad. Confused. I hate that I miss her. It felt so nice to hug my mom, T. I’ve missed her so much. But I can’t let go of the anger. But I’m still mad at her.”
“We all love our mothers, Babe.”
“She missed out on my life. Now she just appears. How can I eat breakfast with her?” asked Bette.
“Babe, we don’t have to do breakfast.”
Bette nodded. “Tina?”
“Yes, Love.”
“Thank you.”
“I love you, Bette. I’ve got your heart, remember? It’s mine to protect,” said Tina.
“Even from my parents?”
“Even from your parents.”
Bette exhaled and the weight of her body seemed to grow as she relaxed in her girlfriend’s arms. “What would I do without you?” she asked softly.
Tina kissed the top of her head, smelling Jasmine and cocoa butter. “No, Babe. What would I do without you?”
“Can we just stay like this?” asked Bette.
Tina smiled. “Yes. We can. For a few more minutes.”
“Then what?”
“We have to face it.”
“I don’t want to.”
“I know you don’t.”
Bette leaned her mouth upwards toward her girlfriend. “Kiss me,” she said.
Tina complied and their lips met in a tender kiss. Bette teased her lover’s lips apart with her tongue and tasted Tina before pulling away.

Wow!!! Mom has returned. I didn’t see this coming. I’m addicted to this series. My request is longer chapters. It goes by so quickly. Fantastic job.
Thank you for the chapter !
If I remember correct – Bette’s mother left her in young age without even a word. And than Bette met her after more than 10 years, n her 19 Age old and even not confronted her mother about why she did it? Seems strange to me.
But ok – interesting how they breakfast could go.
Well, Janice’s return was at least more pleasant than Melvin’s chastising Bette the night before. Glad to see that she seems to accept that Bette is a lesbian and she was pleasant to Tina. Melvin has yet to acknowledge Tina as a part of Bette’s life. I know that Bette is absolutely stunned and that anger is a natural response under the circumstance. My advice is to take one step at a time and see what develops. There is bound to be a reason why Janice would keep up with Bette yet not try to see her. It may not be an acceptable reason, but Bette needs to take the time to find out. Bette needs some kind of relationship or some kind of closure with her mother. A relationship will take time.
In the meantime, Bette and Tina need to talk about what happened at Tina’s job and the tensions going on there. Bette needs to know that Tina is willing to sacrifice her job for their relationship. It will give Bette a greater appreciation for how committed Tina is.
Great story…. one of my favorites.. Look forward to reading more..
Another unexpected turn of the plot, MTS. Didn’t think Bette’s mom would be a part of this “dimension” of the story. Great how you write Bette from stunned to happy to angry. That’s a lot to process.
I hope there will be an explanation from Janice for her leaving. Maybe she will reveal that Melvin cheated on her multiple times, maybe even abused her (at least verbally) and threatened her in some way hadn’t she left immediately and without Bette. Like SassyGran I don’t like Melvin.
His sudden apologetic behaviour on one day and then the usual Melvin-reaction after the service made me want to slap his face. I’d say he thought he could be generous in accepting Bette’s marriage to Sidney because now that she died he wouldn’t be confronted with the woman at his daughter’s side.
Too bad that there’s Tina now.
Hopefully Bette and Tina will get some time to talk with Bette’s mother.
I’m with Martha on the job thing. Tina needs to talk to Bette about the situation. Even if…no when she will solve the situation smoothly and her boss will forget that he put her job on the line Bette should know about Tina’s pressure at work.
Love it, love it, love it. Your story is part of my vacation entertainement – who needs Hawaii when there are so many fantastic Tibette writers like you who provide constant reading supplies :-)
cheers

Well, there’s a twist!
Thanks for the post, looking forward to more

First my favorite two lines…
“She just appears like Mary Fuckin’ Poppins! What in the fuck. ????????
Tina’s legs fully wrapped themselves around her lover’s body as the flower between her legs began to open and beckon for Bette’s tender embrace.????????????
The flower was a nice touch. I love descriptive words.. lol
Loved that Mom just showed up and has been watching over her from a distance. Sad she did show again after their last meeting that’s a long stretch especially if Patricia knew how Bette was she could have used her much sooner.
But still a very nice chapter. Breakfast will be interesting.. just hope Bette keeps her anger in check long enough to hear everything. But you know there’s always Drama. Thank you. And go fucking study!????
