Tina knew that Henry was partly right. She had wanted to be taken away from all the pain that stuck to everything that reminded her of Bette, but Tina knew from experience that her expectations were not unrealistic. They were, however, unrealistic to fulfill with Henry.
“Maybe you’re right… I do expect things you cannot give me…”
“Are you happy with me, Tina? Were you ever… happy with me?”
Tina took way too long to think about how to answer that question. Henry was getting angrier by the second.
“Answer me, Tina,” he yelled.
“… some of the time, yes, I was happy… I am happy… but it’s not enough, Henry. I want more. Don’t get me wrong, I have loved to spend time with you and Mikey… but don’t you think that something is missing, when Mikey is not here?” Tina’s said, willing herself not to cry.
Henry stood up and put his hands on his hips. He looked straight down in Tina’s face.
“… so you used me… that’s it, isn’t it? You lost a child, so you went and got yourself a substitute… you’ve been here just for Mikey. Fuck! I can’t believe how blind I’ve been…” he screamed at her.
As Henry realized what Tina had only been aware of for a few days, her tears started to fall.
“God, Tina… that’s revolting…. you can’t do that to a person. You were supposed to love me… ME, Tina… and not just my son. And by the way, he’s not yours to have… he HAS a mother…” Henry screamed.
Tina was crying hard as every word was rammed into her heart. “… I know… I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you… I didn’t know… I didn’t know, Henry…” Tina cried.
He looked at Tina in disgust. “So you just decided, you don’t love us anymore… or that you never did…”
Tina took a deep breath to calm her crying, “… no… in some ways it has been healing to be with you… I was a mess when we met. You knew what I had been through and you knew I had very little to give when we got together… you knew that, Henry. You didn’t walk into this blind. I thought that you… and time… would heal my wounds and that we could move on together. I thought that over time I would fall in love with you…” Tina stopped to blow her nose.
“…so you never really loved me…?” Henry said in a more calm tone of voice. He had tears in his eyes.
“… no…” Tina whispered and forced herself to look at him.
“You were here because of Mikey… because you love him?”
“…yes…”
“How could you do this to us… to me AND to Mikey… cause you know this is going to break his heart too, right?” Henry yelled with tears running down his cheeks.
“I never meant to hurt either of you. You have to believe me, Henry… I never meant for this to happen… I’m so sorry…”

As long as B&T are on the same page (and we seem to be, too), I’m good for now… though I’d be lying if I said my mind went to PHONE sex…. anyway, happy dance. Post more soon (readers are so demanding, don’t you think? ;) )
I love that Tina is being strong and that Bette is supporting her. Now they can start to move forward. pps
Tina was honest with Henry and he has the rigth to be angry but Tina was in the correct when she told him that he knew the condition and the Tina’s past when they started the relationship. Now Tina will have do deal some hard time but she has Bette that will support her.
well henry knew the deal way up front… tina never lies to him… and i also think its the best idea for her to live some where else for now… they have to learn to trust each other… be best friends dirst… and then hopefully find the love they have for each other again… you are doing a wonderful job with this… i love it… so keep up the good work… later babe…
I have just read the ten chapters and… WOW… you have portrayed the emotions so well, it blows me away… You have made me cry like a gazillion times now… Please post soon!! P.s.: Henry was a dick telling Tina that about losing her son…
OOOOoooOOO please continue soon….gosh, i sure do love drama….it makes my heart sing….
It would have been so easy for Tina to go to Bette now, but glad to see her realize she needs to rely on herself and not on Bette so much. Great chapter and can’t wait for the next one. They will be able to work it out because the love is still there. Thanks!
not too slow, and i agree with others, tina needs to figure out why she did all those things and what she wants before going back to bette, at least she knows that bette is there for her
Get it right this time TINA!
Ya know you made me feel bad for Henry and Mikey- hate when that happens. Anothet great chapter, finally Tina sees that she needs to be by herself for a lil bit. Thanks for takin the time.
For once they seem to be taking their time. Even though they both want to cuddle with the other, they know that in the end they have to be stronger as an individual.
Well Tina do the right thing and dump hendick, so he out of the pictur now!
thats right tina get your head st8 then go and work things out with your women….p.p.s.
Tina is right she shouldn’t go back to Bette. They need to get to know each other and to trust each other again. Be best friends before thinking of being lovers. Hey,I believe that old Henry wanted a housewife and a bed partner,and someone to take care of Micky. He is as guilty as Tina. thanks
Nancy is so right. Great CHapter!!!!! Please Post soon. Thank you
So sweet and so wonderful. Please have Tina go to Bette eventually and let Bette be a friend to her or something! It is time to start communicating and let each other back in one another’s hearts.
I agree with nancy720, Tina needs to get her head straight before working things out with Bette. Awsome update.
Why did the line suddenly go dead…Henry hasn’t gone burko has he??? Don’t let T come to any harm and lead her back to Bette soon…
It’s sad that lil Mikey will be the one to get hurt but it had to be done to move forward. Henry knew what he was up against…he was up against 8 years of love to his what 8 months of cohabitating…get real Henry. She did the right thing in going to a hotel…they need to take it slow and possibly date again.
