Lucky in Love (Chapter 11)
“I know that I hurt you…”
“But you didn’t victimize me,” Tina said. “I did that to myself and used it to justify the things I did to you. And, for that, there’s no excuse.”
From nowhere Bette understood that she had not been ready to hear these words from Tina until now. She hoped the same was true for Tina as she spoke.
“I hid my insecurities and pain from you and that was as much, or more, responsible for isolating us from each other as anything else,” she said in a low, even voice. “I want you to know that my affair was a momentary escape from that and not an emotional refuge. It was also a cruel betrayal of every vow we ever made. I live every day with the regret that I can never undo being the cause of that kind of pain for you.”
“I know,” Tina said softly. “Last night I figured out that was why you took all my crap for so long. For the record, you didn’t need to punish yourself that way. And I’m sorry that I didn’t fully realize that I was behaving every bit as badly as I thought you were.”
The rode in silence for a couple of miles, their words hanging in the air like the scent of freshly cut flowers.
“I think this means we’ve forgiven each other,” Tina said thoughtfully. “There’s some stuff I’d still like to discuss, but I’m not angry anymore.”
“Me either,” Bette said. She decided not to mention the artist today after all.
Helena stood in her kitchen massacring an innocent Maui sweet onion. Lara cringed when she saw the damage.
“Has no one ever shown you how to dice?” she asked as she closed the gap between them.
“It’s a pretty basic concept,” Helena answered. “Why? Have I got it wrong?” She looked and the uneven chunks on her cutting board and dropped her head in defeat.
“Let me show you,” Lara picked up another onion and smoothly removed the outermost layer. “You want to take this end off,” she demonstrated before sliding the onion to Helena and grabbing another for herself. “Then you slice this way without going all the way through.”

Beautiful:) Me happy now! In all seriousness, I love this story and appreciate that Sharmen will be showing up more. Keep up the great work!!!!
Hmmm, Tina’s response to Bette’s statement/accusations seems glossed over, like you wrote just to get it over with. I expected more dialog and a more pensive reply, but you’ve moved them along so we’ll see where else you take them. I have to admit I only read the Bette Tina parts of this story.
Lara and Helena was hot (hope they got all the onion off though…might not smell too hot later…lol) I am glad Bette and Tina forgave each other…I was hoping that NC-17 rating was for them…but it would be too soon I guess…at least let them get home first…lol.
Just back from a couple of weeks away and catching up on your story and it is still amazingly wonderful. I still quite like Helara as a description for Helena and Lara mix, but you are the master and you of course know best, as always. X
Once again Great!!! Keep them coming!!!Cute touch with the dog!!!
I’m floating in happy place called Danish Land.:) Great update. Even though Dana pushed herself too far, I’m still very proud of her. She’s a fighter. I’m glad to see Danish happy together. Awesome job. Sharapova! I just watched her win the U.S. Open. My two favorite players were against each other. Sharapova and Justine Henin-Hardenne. It was an exciting match for me. I love this fic. I’m enjoying it very much. I can’t wait to read more.
I think you found the good mix between love, soulmates and best friends between Alice and Dana. They know eachother so well and it’s so nice to read some really happy Danish. Through some tennis in there and it fits. Keep it up, your story makes me smile…thanks for that!

I just love Danish. Especially this one in your story. :)
awwww this is sooo fucking cute!!! can’t wait to see what happens next. I LOVE DAnisH! and bring bette and tina back together, good for them for working it out.
“Listen, Al, if Charlie follows me home, can I keep him?” -how cute is dana?? this was such an all around sweet chapter for all the couples. although i’m sure it’ll get complicated again when bette finds what she thinks is the right time to tell tina about the artist. poor tibette. i thought u wrote dana’s return to tennis perfectly. she would have of course pushed herself too hard. i liked how alice knew the moment when dana began to hurt. very well written. loved it all! looking forward to another post
