BETTE POV

Angie came to the media room where I have been since we came from the station. I'm waiting for Tina to calm down so we can talk about two things. My "affair" and her previous lesbian relationship that she forgot to tell me.

-Hi sweet pea, can you give mama B a hug.

Angie does as I told her and she also give me a kiss on the cheek –You sad momma?

-A little bit, I don't like when mama T is mad at me.

-Me neither –she giggles and I can't help but giggle with her because I adore her with everything I am –Mommy told me to told you that you have to take me night night.

-Ok, c'mon.

I take my daughter upstairs to her room and read her a story, when she is fast asleep I go down the stairs to the main floor and into the living room where Tina is. She looks at me and I have a déjà vu, I'm remembering that horrible night when she found that I cheated on her but this time is different, I tell myself, this time nothing happened between me and Kelly.

-Tina can you…

-HOW DARE YOU!? HOW DARE YOU CHEAT ON ME AGAIN!? NOW THAT WE WERE HAPPY! THAT WE WERE BACK TOGETHER AGAIN! –She cries so hard that I want to wrap her in my arms and hold her thigh but I know she won't let me at this state- AND WITH KELLY, KNOWING HOW JEALOUS I WAS!

-TINA PLEASE, LET ME EXPLAIN! –When she calm down I start talking and I just look at her in the eyes –Last time I cheated on you, the night of Provocations, what did you saw in my eyes?

-Guilt, anguish, sadness and repentance.

-Ok, look at my eyes now when I tell you that I didn't cheat on you with Kelly or anyone else, I made that mistake five years ago and I would never do that again –Tina is trying to talk so I put my hand on her mouth and with my other hand take her near me –Believe me when I tell you that I love you with my life and I would not break our family again and yes…yes I know you had seen the video and I don't know how it is but I would tell you everything that happens: Kelly came here, without an invitation, with two flutes and champagne, she was drunk and she tried to hit on me, I said no, I said that she loses her opportunity and that I was madly in love with you and she broke one of the glassed so I bend down and started cleaning the mess while she was there, doing nothing. From Jenny's window it can seem what it wasn't, I promise you I didn't cheat on you. Please, believe me, look at my eyes…please, I swear on my fathers grave that I didn't cheat on you.

-I believe you –she looks at my eyes one last time and said: I believe you, I see in your eyes that you are telling the truth but why you didn't told me that she was there when we talked that night?

-Because I know you and I know that you are still afraid that I would cheat on you and you would have dropped that opportunity and came home so I didn't tell you.

-BUT, BUT THAT WOULD HAVE SAVE US ALL THIS DRAMA! I….I HATE WHEN YOU HIDE THINGS FROM ME!

-It's just…then Jenny threatens me and I was scared that you would leave me, I can't live without you anymore T.

-She threatens you? –Tina looks at me with fear in her eyes and I know what she is going to ask me- You didn't…did you..?

-If you are going to ask me if I killed her…no, I didn't. I hated her but I would never kill her, at the end of the day I have some love for her.

-Yeah…me too, even if she was the one that stoles the negatives.

We sit down on the sofa and hug, expressing all the love we feel for each other. But then I remember what that detective told me.

TINA POV

I really can know if Bette is telling me the truth or not just by looking at her eyes: when she cheated on me with Candace I knew she was feeling sorry and sadness, when I confronted her in the Planet after she left Candace I knew she was hesitant to tell me that she has been with her that morning, when I told her I was coming home again I could see her happiness and when I told her I was having feelings for men, I knew I lost her that moment. The only time I couldn't tell if she was telling me the truth or not was at Jenny's party when she told me she loved Jodi, she said yes with her mouth but with her eyes she was saying "I love you and not her" according to Bette. But I didn't see it.

Now she is telling the truth and I can't be happier right now.

Until I hear her next words: I am really you FIRST, last and forever?

-Of…of course you are baby.

And I know she is going to yell because her vein is getting harder and harder, that means she is getting mad.

-DON'T LIE TO ME TINA! THE DETECTIVES TOLD ME THAT THEY JUST FOUND OUT THAT YOUR FIRST LESBIAN RELATIONSHIP WAS WITH YOUR SISTER! I KNOW SHE SEXUALLY ABUSED YOU T, ….Why you…why you had to lie to me? Why you never told me? IT WAS THAT HURT TO TRUST ME OR IT WAS BETTER TO LIE TO ME?!

She goes to the other end of the room and look at me, waiting for a response. I don't know what to tell her. I trust her, I know she would not let me because of this but…but what if now it is too late? What if she let me now?

-I…I was ashamed…until tonight I still blame myself for what happened and it was too hurt to accept it. I…of course I trust you, completely but I just wanted to take that part of my life away, to just forget…I…I'm sorry –I can't look at her eyes, they are expressing anger and disappointment.

-BUT WHY YOU TOLD ME I WAS YOUR FIRST? I WAS NOT! You know what? I need some time to calm down, go to bed; I'm going to Kit's. I would be here in less than three hours…I don't want to do something that we would regret tomorrow!

And she disappeared through the door. I do my hygiene routine and wait for her in bed… I just hope she would forgive me, she would understand….Kit always makes her understand.
