If You Never Say Anything to Me ch. 8
“Not as much as I thought I would. I love what I do and I’m good at it. Being away though, I realize it isn’t my whole world and before, I had made it the most important part of my world. I want to go back of course if for no other reason than I’m bored but I can’t say that I want to be a police officer forever which shocks me to say.”
“Are you ok with that?”
“I have to be. It may just be me being away and will change when I’m back but for now, I’m not in love with my job anymore and may have to see what other options are available.”
“Have you thought that perhaps this is just a reaction to the shooting?”
“Yes I have and it may be. I’m not deciding anything right now. Time will tell I guess.” Instinctively, I looked at the clock on the table beside me and was surprised that our time was over. I didn’t want to leave. After enjoying spending time around a woman, I was used to leaving with her phone number but knew that this wouldn’t be the case this time.
“Are you available this time next week?”
“Yes, of course. It’s not like I have a lot of things going on right now.”
“Ok. Well thanks for coming in. We’ll pick up next week. Know that on the card that I gave you during your initial visit, my answering service number is on there. If you find yourself struggling with anything before our appointment, you can reach me through the service.”
“Thanks Tina. See you next week.” I got up, gathered my bag and walked toward the door. It took everything I had to will myself out the door without looking back to see if she was watching me. In all the weeks that I’ve been coming to see her, I never paid attention to leaving her office. I was just happy to be at the end of our time and walked out. Today, I wanted to capture everything as a way of capturing her essence. It was a stupid thought but one that seemed to help me walk out of that office without making a total fool of myself.

Glad Bette finally opened up though she obviously has her trademark control issue to deal with. Hope she’ll muster the guts to call Tina’s service number. I still don’t know how they’ll hook up without violating any ethical standards. Thanks for the rapid-fire posting, NAG! Have a great week… :>
Loving the frequent posts because your story is simply wonderful! Tina is getting herself in deep ethically. She needs to transfer Bette’s case if she is having feelings for her – even if she doesn’t pursue a relationship. I hope she realizes this. Maybe the universe will intervene and the two will see each other at a local bar over the weekend. I hope you are able to post soon. I feel withdrawal set in almost as soon as I read the last line of your postings! By the way, I really like the font on this chapter.
So, Bette’s talking to Tina because she wants to get to know her…better. Tina wants to refer her to another Dr. so she CAN get to know Bette better. What an interesting dilemma and one I’m sure you’ll treat us to in future chapters. Love your stuff NAG!
Bette want to talk to get to know Tina better and Tina want to transfer Bette to get to know her better. Love how you bring everything together.
Lovely. Thank you.
This was a lovely surprise to wake up to…and without having to strong arm you! LOL! :D What an enjoyable read with my coffee! Um…I never know what you’re going to do next with a story…so I am anxious for another post tho! (Hint) And it appears your other readers were quite happy with the multiple postings yesterday! :P So, uh, make us happy again…can we get another one today? Puh-leeze! I’ll rock G to sleep for you…heheh…
i am sooo loving your story.. and i particularly love how often you post too.. keep it up :)
Hi there… well i just read all 8 chapters… and let me say first i wish they never ended… so happy she is finally opening up and talking… love the relationship tina has with shane… and alice is alice… i loved the way shane was willing to “BREAK” tina in… i also wonder if they all know each other… i have to think alice knows shane… every one knows shane… and since tina did’t say bette’s name… i have a feeling they all know each other… so when is shane taking tina out again… this way bette and tina will meet… loving this story… you have 2 winners going on… love both of your stories… PPS
Holy cow, bette really did talk! i was wondering if she was going grunt yes or no to tina’s questions… the very fact that she gave up control by allowing tina to lead the session was a big step, police always have to be in control or quickly gain control. was wondering if bette is thinking about doing something in the art field going back to painting and showing her work, or even teaching since she has a masters for it….i’m with amanda somehow i think they are all know each and tina will figure this out if she goes out more with shane. update when you have time… no rushing from me! :)
Love it, love it, love it.Happy Bette has decided to open up to Tina and start trying to work out her feelings.for both work and Tina. This going to be great to see their new relationship develop. Thanks again for all the posts, it was wonderful to finish one chapter only to discover another one had been posted. That was great. Enjoyrd them all. The fonts and spacing have been great don’t know what anyone’s problems are. Have a great Monday and kiss the little guy. Post when you can.
Loving it!!! I am glad that Bette really talked to Tina. I hope they meet again in a club when Tina is out with Shane. Thanks PPS
