To Get What You Want, You Must Go Get It – One Chapter Only
"Okay, good-bye."
The door closed softly behind Bette, and Tina listened to the sound of high heels descending the front porch stairs…taking Bette, and her future further and further away with each step.
"No dammit!" Jumping up off the ottoman Tina rushed to the door, knowing that the kiss they just shared was all the proof she needed. First sensing, then seeing Bette’s hesitation before she stood to leave, Tina knew in her heart that Bette still loved her.
Now all she had to do was to remind Bette just how strong their love was, and could be again.
"Hey Bette!" The words were out of her mouth before the door was barely opened.
Bette was just getting into the cab, one foot already in, when she heard Tina call her name.
"Yeah?"
"Seventeen reasons why what?" Tina asked innocently.
"What?" Bette asked, clearly confused by Tina’s question.
"The significance of the sign you are taking to Jodi. Seventeen Reasons Why. I was just wondering what the seventeen reasons were, or what they stood for?"
"Oh…" Bette thought for a moment and then shrugged her shoulders. "Because she said she liked it."
"Oh…" Tina stood for a moment lost in thought.
"But why…" Tina started again.
"It’s supposed to be my grand gesture," Bette said, interrupting Tina. "You all told me I needed to do something big." Bette could hear the uncertainty in her own voice, and wondered where it had come from.
"I can give you seventeen reasons why."
"Why what?" Bette asked, staring at Tina, confused by what seemed to be a very strange conversation.
‘Okay, here we go,’ Tina thought to herself. Without saying a word, she smiled her sexiest smile…then lifting one eyebrow, slowly backed inside and closed the front door.
Standing there, Bette tried to shake off the shiver of desire that ran up her spine at seeing that all too familiar smile from Tina. Shaking her head in confusion, her thoughts were interrupted by the cab driver.
"You staying, or going?"
"What was that about?" She whispered. Taking one more look at the front of her house, Bette eased herself into the cab, keeping her eyes on the front door until the car turned the corner and was out of sight.

That was spectacular. Wish you were the head writer on the L word. Again great to see your stories.
Four brilliant stories… just perfect. So lovely to see you posting again, you’ve certainly been missed. Looking forward to the summer story.
This was brilliant! Definitely my favorite list of 17 reasons why. Thank you for sharing!
Bravo! just perfect babe.. thxs for sharing. MORE PLEASE!!!
Oh wow, now this should have been the last episode for season 4 … oh well I hope the writers of L word hang out here and see waht the fans really want to see happen.Great fan fic thanks for sharing
How did you think of 17 significant reasons? Beautiful and perfect! I am in awe of your ability.
Aww. My favorite too. I wish I could have seen something this compelling on the show. This was sweet..and when I breathed in at the end I realized it actually made me choke up. Thats some talent.
“…all fourteen ripped and torn swimsuits…and I can still feel your heat…your passion as you relieved me of them…” We’d really like it if you decide to take us to the sea (like PP’s assistant ;-) and write some vacation fic… after all, you’re our Seahurst!
is it christmas or what? 4 stories from you…wow, what a present…how do i love thy stories, let me count the way :) …. anyway, you brought tears to my eyes with that…if only, if only
Actually, with all the vibrations emminating from Bette’s Blackberry, it was a different pop song that popped to mind: Michael Jackson (his voice never really did change, did it? with his 4 brothers on “Never Can Say Goodbye”Ev’ry time I think I’ve had enough and start heading for the door There’s very strange vibrations, piercing me right to the core It says turn around you fool you know you love her more and more Tell me why is it so? Don’t wanna let you go I never can say goodbye girl (never can say goodbye, girl)I’ve had a VERY long day, I’ll read the others tomorrow.
one of the best stories I have read…. congrats….
I stand and applaud. This was wonderful as was all the rest. So glad you decided to write again. You truly have been missed.
jumping up and down wildly, clapping my hands off. that was brilliant. thanks.

Absolutely loved it. Spent most of yesterday reading “if its meant to be” instead of doing the housework! A much better way to spend the day if you ask me. You are way up there with the best!Keep posting.
Brilliant, just one complaint: You left a word out that was in the other three. It was a word I kept saying to myself as I was reading this one… Fuck!
ahh yea….this was my fav too…….awesome…….if only it could have happened like that in the show………ahem…..ok nough daydreamin…….lol……anyways, i loved this…..and the others…….
ABSOLUTLY BRILLIANT!!!!!! Hope we can read more SOON!!! Hope all is going well. THANK YOU!!
Well, I guess pretty much everything has been said already… Well, except for one thing I believe… And I’m sorry but I’m going to borrow Helena’s words ( since she was the greatest drama queen in the show back then ), but your story, Seahurst, brought tears to my eyes. Really ! And let me tell you that had not happened in quite a while ! Beautiful story… Wonderful writing style…
See, writers block all gone
OMG!!!YOUR BACK!!!! I am so loving all four stories!!! Thank you
That was fantastic!!
Amazing and wonderful – you really are the best!
Talk about saving the best for last… Thanks for all of these wonderful posts today. What a pleasure to read.
I loved this one. Brilliant.
Great story! I loved it.
I am absolutely speechless…Sea, thank you so much for sharing with us again. I sooo hope you will continue :)
OMG!!!!
When I first read this I wanted to cry but the tears wouldn’t flow.This is my fav out of the bunch Sea.How an you stop now.
As I stand in front of my computer, clapping my hands , I realize I have just read the MOST incredible chapter ever on this site. I am in awe of your talent and gift, and it has been my humble pleasure to have read this. It was absolutely…..amazing.
Wow!Amazing.Brilliant.Perfect!I absolutely love it!Great job :)
Amazing…
Fantastic. If only this is how it had really gone.
You are right this is the best one because my Tibette heart is full of joy and happiness. How did you come up with 17 insightful reasons for Bette to go back to Tina? They are breath taking and are exactly how Tina feels about what has happened between the two of them. Oscar is not a favorite name of mine but is sounds wonderful as one of Bette and Tina’s children of the future. Keep posting, please.
That was great, just like always. Hope to see more soon. Thanks for takin the time.
brilliant
That was such a PERFECT story! (standing now & clapping as I yell) BRAVO! BRAVO!
i can only say WOWWWWWWW AMAZING SIMPLY AMAZING i think am going to cry
absolutely beautiful! I’ll have sweet dreams tonight for sure. Thank you so much Seahurst.
That was absolutely brillant and romantic. I think you should write for the “L”word! I don’t often leave comments, this is probably the best I”ve ever read, it was real!
What is there to say now that I haven’t? You have completely outdone yourself my friend. Many thanks of course to Succulent, and especailly Jwet. To be “inspired” can be one of the strongest forces as a writer. There are writer’s, and then there are WRITER’S. Without a doubt, you are the latter. Please don’t stay away so long Sea, you can see (wow almost a no pun intended moment. LOL) how much everyone here is just blown away by your talent.
Goose bumps!! Thank you:-)
Seahurst…this was awesome. I couldn’t take my eyes off of the screen, how do you do it? I wish I could see this story acted out on the screen (including the flashbacks) that would so great. I hope you bless us again with more of your words.
I am with you I love this one too. I’m glad I could help but you already had so much of it. You really are so good at this. The flow of this reals me in thanks for writting it.
This too was my favorite followed very closely by your nc-17….Your writing captures true emotions. The way you express each characters feelings are amazing. Having Tina use special days in history and in their life’s was a work of a genius. And the scene at the end was perfect. I’m so glad that you chose to participate, I hope that you will continue writing after this and that your writer’s block is GONE!
What a great way to start my morning….thank you thank you!Please give us more…..you cannot tease us like this and not give us a nice long story!
luved this one the best, great job!!!!!!!
Absolutely great!
Oh Seahurst, “if only” Ms. IC had just a tiny, tiny amount of this TiBette love in her heart… You sooo rule!
Awesome! Just absolutely awesome!!!
made me smile.
Brilliant! Sea, you always astound me with your writings! I could not help be feel like Bette in anticiaption of what Tina was going to say next. You drew me so completely in the story! When is that book coming out?!
Seahurst, ’47 Reasons Why, we need another post, soon’, because that’s how many have fans, have begged for more of your stories, before me! I’m sure more fans will soon follow, as they log on! So, please!?
Aahhhh! So good to see you back! Another great story!
I am in complete awe. This was just stunning. If you ever need someone to carry your bags! Thank you for writing this! *speechless*

Well, what else can I say that hasn’t already been said?! I’m a little late to the party but I’m so glad to see you back! And with 4 stories!! I too liked this the best out of the 4. Hope to see more from you soon. Thanks.
Uhhh…wow. I don’t really have any words for that, lol. It was fantastic!

It is the most touching story I have read so far. And believe me… I’ve read hundreds of stories ;) Thanks. A million thanks. barbara
Pure joy to read..brilliant!
Tibettenation1 ! Thank you so much, it took me a while to realise that you are going thru some wonderful L word stories one by one. Thank you for bringing out the amazing stories again. As much as I appreciate the brilliant writer but I just want to thank you…. Maybe I should thank you under your personal ID….
More to come I believe… Thank you so much !
Brilliant – an absolute joy to read! This should have been the end of Season 4 without any doubt! I think Tibettenation1 and I are on a similar mission!
