    Author Notes:

    It comes time – Bette and Tina must say ‘goodbye’ or ‘hello’.

    (Outside the house, Alice, who had driven Tina there with Kit, is sitting in the Mini Cooper, with Shane in the back seat making sure Angelica was comfortable in the car seat.  They are sitting there, in the car, in the rain, waiting for the outcome.  They were parked out front but down the street, hoping that they wouldn’t be a quick get away for Tinathey wanted to give her every opportunity if she walked out to think about what she was doing.)

     

    ALICE-  “I don’t think I can wait any longer, this is getting nerve wrecking.”

     

    KIT-  “Alice she just went in.”

     

    SHANE-  “How will we know if they decide to talk all night?  How long are we supposed to wait?”

     

    ALICE-  “Well let’s hope this one is an all-nighter.  Remember, if she comes out any time soon it won’t exactly be a good sign.  Anyway, she said she’d let us know one way or another.  If she’s staying for hours, she’ll call on the cell.  So no news right now ain’t quite good news.”

     

    KIT-  “I can’t believe this is happening.”

     

    ALICE-  “They’re so stubborn.  And right now they’re not on the same wavelengthit’s like they’re at cross-purposes.  Frig, she said she’s still in love with her for crying out loud.  You’d think that would resurrect Porterthe Porter we knew and loved.”

     

    (Back in the house, the intensity was rising. For each of them it was like they couldn’t move forward and couldn’t take a step back. They couldn’t really look far into their eyes at that distance, but they kept looking.  They were paralyzed by the sight of one another.  They were frozenby fear, by something bigger than the minutes and seconds passing as they created this barren space between them that became like a ‘no man’s land’, a last mile.  The upper hand was somehow still Tina’s, and the first and last shot in this duel to the last belonged to her as well, though she didn’t quite yet know it.)

     

    TINA-  (She looked a little worn, her hair a little messy, her clothing a little dirty.  There was a bandage affixed to the back of her head, near her neck.  Her face was clean, her eyes were alert but there was something different about them now.  There was no frigidity in them.  They didn’t reflect anger or agitation.  They didn’t show fear, but that emotion was in her and it didn’t reside solely within Tina.

    1. I don’t believe that I have ever read anything more intense than this chapter. Amazing. It was amazing how you conveyed their inability to hear each other. This will never happen on the show–Ilene wouldn’t take the time for anything like this to happen. Thanks for this story.

    2. …..and take that IC and put it where the sun don’t shine!!!! Damn I wish I had the words to let you know how wonderful this is to read..again you give it all to us, without holding back, this is the way we love to see our B/T…Now Ms IC has been given another season and she had better do right by these two ladies because I don’t believe she will be given a number 5…well at least I can’t see JB/LH giving her one…Pls don’t ever stop writing for us here, you are a godsend with the words you put down on paper…pls I wait to see what you give us next…thankyou!!!

    3. this is the most intense conversations and reunion i’ve read so far…wonderful…Ilene, if you are reading this, that’s what i as B&T fan want to see in s4 (or the end of s3)..whatever, just give it to us…thanks Merlin, wonderful ending

    4. thanks a lot for this wonderful chapter, i loved it just as much as i loved the first one. and just like when reading ch.1, this time i also felt like crying when i was reading the tibette conversations and then when you switched to alice, i wanted to laugh… you feel the characters so well!.. it was an amazing read, thanks a lot for writing and posting it!

    5. Took me a little less than an hour to read every word…and I AM LEFT SPEECHLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GREAT/WONDERFUL, SUPERB!!!!!!!! looking forward to more of your stories…..hopefully that’ll be soon!!!!!!!

    9. Wow, wow, wow!!!! Did I say WOW!!!!?Thank you for the INCREDIBLE amount of time and thought you put into this. It must have taken a lot out of you! WOW!! Thanks!

    11. WOW..absolutely amazing. The intensity of their inability to communicate with one another and then the sheer abandonment of all hope, trust, need, and love to find each other in the edge of no return. That was overwhelmingly sad and beautiful at the same time. The passion you put into this story is totally amazing. I’m overcome with such emotion and filled from head to toe with hope and love — thank you for sharing this incredible journey.

    13. Thanks for taking the time to answer to all your fans….With this chapter you just show more of your wonderful writing…i insist…you have some terrific wonderful writing skill…keep going with more histories….Congratulations.!

    14. AMAZING, my ogd i could feel all the intense emotions running through the writing wow just wow that is one of the best pieces of writing i have been lucky enough to read in hear thank you i hope to see more great

    16. This was so intense, Part of the way I was thinking Good=Bye, and then realize they were talking about the same thing yet were not listen to each other. This is one of the best reunion I have read on the site. Thanks so much for your time energy,and all the effort you put into this thanks

    17. Merlin, simply magical! I am sure that you are as spent as Bette and Tina after writing this story. With words, you have shown what I truly believe and I hope that IC does as well: when two people love each with every fiber and molecule of their being, love can be enough regardless of obstacles.

    19. Intense, insightful, incredible! I enjoyed every heart wrenching scene. Congratulations on a very well written piece! Wish we could expect this much from the show……. Thank you for sharing!

    20. Wow – I just read both parts of this story in one sitting – that was intense! I feel light headed now – I must have held my breath. WOW – great story. Thanks.

    21. That was simply amazeing ..actually thats not even the word to describe what this story is!!! ive got tears in my eyes a lump in my throat and a goddamn hugh smile on my face…and hun thats not easy!!! your words, the emotion,the whole thing has left me in complete awe, i would be a complete romantic and its stories like yours that assure me romance and true love are so worth it Thanks for shareing such a wonderful story and an equally wonderful talent.

    22. that was amazing, i’m still crying and my mouth is still open. You write from the heart and THAT is what makes this story stand out from all the rest. I like so many stories that are on this site, but this one has truly taken my breath away, i could picture it all in my head and it felt like i was standing next to the girls, watching it all unfold.THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND HOPEFULLY WE CAN EXPECT THIS IN S4

    24. beautifully written thanks for making tibette actually feel something about their relationship. i love the scene in the rain you captured the moment perfectly. honestly, i much prefer some of the fics over the show. it’s a shame they get to make the big bucks when i much rather see this then their dreck.

    28. WOW…..that seems to be the word of the day. Merlin, thank you for such a beautiful story. Just as Seahurst commented…..this must have taken a lot out of you. That’s what I kept thinking as I read it. Truly awesome!!!
