Chapter 53

You look like an angel. Bette whispers in Tinas ear. This makes Tina blush a little.

You look amazing too. Tina smiles. Having a hard time holding back the happy tears.

Let get this party started shall we? Bette says and smiles.

I cant believe you did this, I thought they couldnt make it. Tina says.

I love you so much. Tina adds and leans in and kisses Bette.

Dana walks up to them and handing Angelica over to Tina.

Hi there little one. Did you know about this? Tina says and kisses her on the cheek. Angelica is laughing which makes everyone laugh.

 Tina and Bette walk over to the table with all the presents. And one by one Angelica rips open, shes a little slow in the beginning, but after a few, she gets the hang of it. She laughs and giggles. She doesnt care about the things that are inside the paper. Its the paper she loves.

Everyone is watching and enjoying this time as a family.

Kit slips into the kitchen with the help of Joanna, they finish up the food. They bring it out and yell for everyone to take a seat.

Everyone, food is ready. Kit says and motion for all to sit down.

Right on time as Angelica had just finished ripping open the last present.

Bette walks inside to get Angelicas chair and to get her food.

Bette comes out again and bow downs to Joanna.

Would you like to take Angel? Feed her? Bette asks.

I would love too Bette. Joanna replies. Bette set down the chair between Joanna and Jeffrey. She then walk around the table to Tina, and take Angelica from Tina and walk back and set her into the chair. She then runs inside to get the food.

There all set. She says and walks back to Tina and sits down next to her.

The all start eating. Its one big happy family.

Tina is silent, and Bette wonders whats going on.

Baby, is something wrong? Bette asks concerned rubbing Tinas back.

No baby, nothing is wrong, Im just happy. How long have you been planning this? Tina asks looking directly in Bettes eyes.

I asked your parents a month ago. Bette replies. I wanted them here for this special day. Bette says. Tina leans in for another kiss.

Everyone is looking at them, smiling.

Why dont you two get a room? Alice breaks the silence and everyone starts laughing leaving Tina and Bette a little blushed.

The rest of the meal goes well. Scott and Christina had a hard time sitting still, all they wanted, was to jump in the pool. And after an hour Emily and Sean gave them the green light.

Hours pass, everyone is having a great time. Tina is getting up with Angelica in her arms. Angelica is getting tired.

Hey, babe, we should get her into bed. Tina says and turns towards Bette.

Bette also gets up. The walks towards the door, they get up on the patio, there Bette grabs Tinas arm gently and turn her around.
Babe? Tina asks curiously. She sees that something isnt how it should be. Bette seems nervous. Tina gets a concerned look on her face. But that changes as soon as she sees Bette get down on one knee.

Everyone has turned their attention on Bette and Tina.

Tina, the love of my life, will you do me the honor and marry me again? Bette looks up and hold the velvet box up to Tina and waits for Tinas reaction.

Tina is speechless, her eyes suddenly all teary she looks down on the Ring in the box and on Bette. She holds on tightly to Angelica, she then also get down so she faces Bette. Angelica seems to have woken up again and is giggling like she always does. The tears are dripping from Tinas eyes. Bette moves her thumb up and wipes them away. Tina then begins to smile.

Yes. Tina says. At that Alice stands up and screams hurray. The others follow quickly. That got both Bette and Tina to laugh.

Bette helps Tina up again.

I love you Tina. Bette says once more.

Ah! Bette its beautiful. Tina says and looks at the ring, with tears still falling down her cheek.

It wasnt just Angelicas birthday you had planned, was it? Tina says smiling.

No, I have wanted to do this the last four months, I just kept waiting for the right moment. Bette says and smiles back at Tina.

So can I ask when this is suppose to take place? Tina whispers.
