The Greatest Love Story Ever Told
Any emotions that Bette had felt attempt to surface since Al’s phone call barring a few private minutes had been swept aside with a determination she wasn’t aware she even possessed. Tina had always been the strong one, Tina had always been the one to pick her up when their separation became too much for her, Tina had always been her rock. Now due to a cruel twist of fate their respective roles would be, had to be reversed. After a brief but much needed break down in the confines of the jet’s restroom, Bette swallowed her own grief, her own pain and swore to herself, to Tina, to whoever was privy to ones inner most prayers that she would pull Tina up from the
depths of despair she would be in when…not if….Bette couldn’t even bring herself to think of any other alternative to the when…the when Tina came out of her coma.
Now looking through the glass pane to Tina’s private room that new found determination was showing the first signs of weakness, so much so that she was glad that Al and Helena where standing either side and caught her before she fell to the floor in an emotional heap.
Taking a few minutes to regain her composure, Squaring her shoulders and filling her lungs to capacity Bette opened the door and entered Tina’s room and that is where she stayed for the next 2 days, she only left Tina’s side when bodily functions deemed it absolutely necessary despite Doctors assurances the previously unthinkable…if…was slowly creeping into Bette’s thoughts.
The first of Tina’s senses to awaken was her sense of smell, the scent only adding to her fuzzy and confused mind, her last memory was travelling with her parents and brother back home where she was spending the first week of her summer vacation, then onward to Bette and the cooler shores of home.
With each passing second the smell was becoming stronger and more recognizable.
Bette
As that thought registered she felt the weight currently laying across her abdomen, a soft hand holding hers. Still confused as to her location she opened her eyes and was surprised at the amount of effort it had taken to perform that simple task, blinking sporadically she waited until the blurriness cleared, ignoring her surroundings for now Tina focused on the familiarity of Bette’s dark curly locks and basked in the comfort and calmness the sight invoked, and an immensely contented sigh flowed freely from her lips.

Hey great as usual, bt pls don’t keep them apart for long:)I understand u can’t re post everything bt may be just dis story PLEASE. PPVVVS
tina will do the right thing for bette, even if bette dsnt like it she will go. poor tina losing her family and bette now wow skimm drama drama. any way skimm love reading and talking see ya
Wow can you say Peggy leaving the crow speechless… even though we all know they end up together in the end…still hard knowing that they go through this temporary seperation.
Skimmy you do spin an excellent yarn sooooooo perfectly. Why couldn’t Bette finish her degree in California…Tina had just been through a tremendous trauma and I think that Bette was doing the right and unselfish thing staying with her. Why do other people always think they know best. Bette was smart and taking a year off to help Tina recover wouldn’t have been a huge hardship for her. Well there endeth my sermon…stand up Bette and just say NO! Ohhhh….really well written by the way!
Poor Tina but hope she will go with Bette!
wow…nice twist in the story. didnt expect that one. great writing! looking forward what happens next…and yah, what are bette’s suitcases doing on the bed???
Poor Tina… instead of Bette leaving, was actually going with Bette an option? Post soon, and thanks.
ROFLMAOOOOOO HEY!!!! I resemble part of that author note! LMAO! You are too funny. The chat was hysterical the other night, and girl you are VERY sharp. I hardly got through my popcorn before you “guessed” that other person’s alter ego. I’m going to send you an honorary police badge! Okay…once again you have me hanging on your every word. Because it’s you, the unpredictable author who will write from her creative side and not what may or may not be expected by the readers, I’m VERY worried about the suitcases……….MORE!!!!!! ABBA ABBA ABBA! Hee Hee
OM Tna hasn’t got any family left apart Bette. What will she do if Bette leaves? poor Tina and Poor Bette.

Skimmer. Wow. You’ve left me totally speechless and absolutely and totally thankful that you stuck to your guns on this writing thing. I didn’t know we had a chat thing here. You know you’ve just contributed to my not getting any work done ever. Especially if you’re going to be around. Ok, back to commenting on the story. Wow (I know, I know, how illiterate of me to have to repeat that). Fat legs, how could you do that? You’re killing me here. No, but seriously, I was on page 4 or 5 when I realized that even though the obvious person to feel bad for is Tina, Bette has also lost a big part of her life. The Kennards were basically her adoptive family when she was younger. This is a great twist. Though I would have liked to have seen more conversation between Peggy and Tina. They seem like great matches for one another. Love this. So MUCH. PPVVVVVVVVVVVVS (and that isn’t enough V’s but I figured my comment would get cut off eventually)
Peggy’s behaviour is outrageous! Argh! Poor Tina… I’m glad that you continue this story. :o)
Awww Tina, her love for Bette is stronger than her fear of losing a loved one again. Is there a possibility that Tina leaves with Bette and stays the entire time that Bette is in England?
Thank you Skimmer for updating this story. Excellent twist. Love it and can’t wait to see what happens! I hope Tina goes with Bette! Thank you again for this and I’m sorry I can’t answer your question – I don’t know who I’ll save and probably drown being so fickle :-)
Ah persistent pushy Peabody
Skimmer I love both or your stories. Thanks for this update. Tina is very brave…
