The Trouble With Love Chapter Thirty Two
Tina sat in the back of the car on the way home from long day at work. While she stared out the window she absentmindedly played with her phone. She had spent all day debating inwardly whether to call Shane. It would be one way to garner the reaction that her and Bettes reconciliation would get, and if she was going to do it, it should be now. Tina took one last look at her phone and dialled the number.
Hey T. Whats up?
Hey Shane, I am so sorry about not calling you. Ive been really busy and I know Bette called you last week and
T, Its OK. I just presumed that things were going well with you and Bette, as she hasnt returned yet, and that you wanted to spend as much time with her as possible. Things are OK, arent they? asked Shane, suddenly wondering what had prompted Tinas call.
Theyre better than alright Shane. Bette and I, well, were back together.
Thats great Tina. Im happy for you, for both of you. Have you told anyone else?
No, and if its OK with you I think that I would like it if you kept it to yourself until we get back. I want to be the person to tell people. Its important to me that people know that its what I want, what we both want, and that I couldnt be happier. Tina smiled to herself as she finished speaking.
Thats fine. You know you can trust me. Is there anything you would like me to do before you get back?
No, butI know I havent called andwell, I need your advice about something.
OK. replied Shane, waiting.
I want to move back into the house with Bette when I get back, but, I dont know Shane, maybe its too soon, maybe Im rushing into it because I dont want to be alone anymore and yet the thought of being without her, that scares me more than anything.
Has Bette asked you to move back in with her?
Not in so many words, but you should have seen the hurt in her eyes when I told her I was unsure, it broke my heart a little.
So you want to move back in and Bette wants you live with her again so I dont mean to be obtuse Tina, but Im not sure what the problem is. chuckled Shane.

Great Update. THank you
Two simple words, thank you.
so have you been hired by L Word yet? To bring our girls back together…apparently no one there can write it. thank you for the post.
Really need for Tina friend and our Shane to meet. Think they will be great together. Lets keep these two ladies together thanks
i’m glad they finally agree to move in together…shane and kate…what can i say, it could work
Awww….just pitch perfect. Love this update.
yessss! Finally Tina decided have this talk with Bette and accepted live together in LA! The earrings all of us know that she left there on purpose! great story a like it so much
I am so glad that they are willing to talk and show that side of themselves that can destroy them. It is through that knowledge that the other has in their lover that allows the other to lead them. It is like following the yellow brick road, or the rainbow to the treasure. Only here the treasure is having the family that both women would like to have.
This is good and wonderful!
Citygirl, Another wonderful chapter as Tina shares her concerns and anxieties with Shane first and then opens up to Bette. It is these quiet and sincere moments between the characters that lifts this story into the stratosphere. Having Tina slowly and cautiously comes to terms with her fears and overcome them by talking to Bette is masterfully realized here. Your talent and skill with the words and phrases have created an alternative universe; one where Bette and Tina can come together as one once more. Thank you for sharing this terrific tale with me. A Fan.
Love your story! Love the vulnerability from them both and the communication! Great.
Wow, this story and especially this chapter makes me resent Ilene even more. Excellent chapter, Citygirl. Memo to Ilene: Take a page out of Bette’s book and put it right in S4.
That’s so sweet. Long live TiBette.
Glad to see Tina made the jump. Okay more like a baby hop since Kate was right that after a week Tina would be at the house every night anyway. I figured Tina would ask for her ring back in this chapter too. Perhaps we’ll see that in a lighter setting before they go back to LA. :)
so are you going to let kate and shane meet… yoda to yoda… that would be cool… love this story… love the love… keep it going… maybe a baby is in the cards… please post soon
love the story!! I agree Shane and Kate together would be fun! so happy B/T are together! plz continue!
Great update and I do so agree with robbeedee and the rest of the readers. Love our girls together, happy and in love. Thanks for the post.
