When Tina heard Michelles voice, she got this burning sensation on her skin to feel her touch.

Tina: Uh, hey Michelle. Did I wake you?

Michelle: No, of course not, I was actually waiting for you to call.

Tina: How did you know I would call?

Michelle: Because I knew you got the same feeling I did when we kissed.

Tina didnt say anything. She knew Michelle was right. But she had to see her before she could decide anything.

Tina: Listen, I know your going out of town, we actually out of the country, for a few days, but can I see you sometime next week?

Michelle: I thought you would never ask. Hows Friday night for you? Meet at the Planet around 7?

Tina: Perfect, Ill see you then.

Michelle: Cant wait.

Tina: Okay, have fun in France!

Its Friday night and she still hasnt called, thought Bette. She did say Ill call you next week didnt she? Bette has been waiting all week for Tinas call, but nothing, not even a quick text message saying she needs more time.

Tina walked out of the room and looked absolutely gorgeous. She wore a black, sleek, very low cut Versace dress that accented every curve of her body to its finest. Her hair, now much longer, reached just below her shoulders, had the brightest glow to it. Alice was in awe.

Alice: Wow Tina. ***** mama! I knew I should have got you instead of pointing you out to Bette!

Tina: Well thank you Alice. Ive always had a little crush on you too. And I better look sexyI spent over $400 dollars on this dress!

They both laughed at the thought of them as a couple for seven years. Tina looked down at her watch and realized it was time to go.

Tina: Oh, hey I got to go.

Alice: Shes not coming to pick you up?

Tina: No, were meeting at the Planet.

Alice: Oh

Tina: Dont be sad Alice, youll see her on Monday and be able to fantasize about her then.

Alice: Haha, you have beauty and jokes.

Tina: I sure do. Okay, I love you, see you later.

Tina gave Alice a quick kiss and a hug and was out the door.

Bette was going crazy; she had to talk to Tina. Keep it together Porter, she said she would call, and she will. But she couldnt take it anymore. If she wanted her wife back, she couldnt just sit around and wait for her. She picked up the phone and dialed Tinas cell number. It just rang and went to her voicemail. She decided not to leave a message. I have to get out of this house.

Tina was on her way to the Planet when she heard her phone vibrating. She picked it up and flipped it open. It was Bette. Damn, I told her I would call. Her finger went back and forth between the Talk and End buttons. She thought it would break Bettes heart if she told her she was going out with Michelle. And she would just think that she was trying to get back at her. She can just leave a message.

Tina pulled up to the Planet just as Michelle was.

Michelle: Hi Tina, wow, you look fantastic.

Tina: Thank you, but thats just the least to be said about you.

Michelle wore a similar baby blue dress with a slit on the side that came up mid-thigh. Her hazel eyes were piercing in the dim light.

Michelle: Do you want to go in and have a drink and talk first?

Tina: Sure.

Michelle: Okay, before we go in I have something for you.

Tina: AwwMichelle you didnt have to.

Tina opened a box to find the most beautiful plantinum necklace. It was a heart pendant, and on the back it said Toujours la pense de vous

Michelle: It means Always thinking about you in French.

Tina: Its lovely, Michelle.

Michelle went behind Tina at put it on her.

Michelle: Beautiful.

Tina: It really is beautiful, thank you.

Michelle: I meant you Tinalets go inside.

They ordered their drinks and sat down at an intimate corner in the back. They made small talk and they felt so comfortable around each other. Every few times before she started a sentence, Michelle would put her hand on Tinas knee or hands. Tina liked it, she liked feeling wanted, and she liked feeling desired by someone else.

Michelle scooted her chair closer to Tina, and slid her hand further up Tinas thigh under the table.

Michelle: (whispering) So tell me, what are you thinking?

Tina: Im thinking that if you slide your hand up any further, we just might skip dinner tonight.

Michelles eyes lit up.

Michelle: So what do you say we get out of here?

Tina: And where-

Before she could finish, Michelle stole her words with a kiss. It was a long, deep, passionate kiss. That Tina did not want to end.

Michelle: Lets go before this gets any further.

Tina: (breathing heavily) Okay.

As Tina was getting up, she thought the world had stopped when she looked at the front door. There was Bette, starring at her, with one lonely tear coming down her left cheek.
