Ummmmm..oh GodTina..uuugghhhh.

Bette was grinding her hips into Tinas hand as if her life depended on it while Tina was busily sucking and lapping at her favorite part of Bettes lower anatomy. Bette was leaving for San Francisco the next day for some gallery opening so her and Tina decided to make the most of their last night together. They put Liz to bed early and since then had spent the last three hours exhausting each other like they would never see one another again. Bette was clutching the sheets so tight her knuckles were white and her hands were beginning to hurt, and when Tina looked up she grinned as she took in Bettes sweat covered body rising and falling with each thrust of her hand. Tina repositioned her fingers a little and when she entered Bette she pressed hard on the spot she knew would make Bette scream and sure enough Bette let out a moan that could have waken the dead.

Uuhhhhhhh.TINA.

Babeshhhnot so loud.

Bette ignored Tinas warning however as she continued to writhe and moan under Tinas touch and Tina bent down to lick the sweat that had formed on Bettes thighs as she continued to work her lover. Bette grabbed a pillow and stuffed it over her face to muffle her moans so that she wouldnt wake Liz as Tina continued her relentless torture. Bette felt the ***** build and within seconds she came long and hard leaving Tina to revel in her accomplishment. Tina withdrew her hand and licked it clean before crawling off the bed and kneeling down to lap up the juices that were still flowing out of Bette. Bette shook a little as Tina started to gently drink her up and she moaned softly into the pillow that was still covering her face. Tina paid close attention to Bettes ***** as she finished cleaning her up and when Tina looked up at Bette she had her eyes shut and a huge grin on her face.

Just then Tina noticed movement by the door and snapped her head up to find Liz standing there crying softly and rubbing her eyes. Bette saw her too and after quickly throwing an oversized shirt on she went over and wrapped Liz up in her arms. Bette had finally gotten over her anxiety about Liz walking in on them and freaking out, since she realized that even if Liz did see them she still wouldnt know what they were doing, and Bette was okay with leaving the door slightly open so that they could hear if Liz woke up or anything happened. Bette kissed Lizs cheek as she picked up her daughter and held her while she gently wiped away the tears.

Whats wrong baby?

(sniffle) I had a bad dream mommy(sniffle)

Oh poor babyits okayit was just a dream.

Tina had found her clothes and was fully dressed so she replaced Bette on the bed next to Liz while Bette threw some clothes on as well. Tina rubbed Lizs back soothingly as she whispered to her softly to get her to calm down. After a few minutes Liz stopped crying and looked at Bette and Tina questioningly.

Why were you making so much noise? Did you have a bad dream too?

Tina and Bette laughed softly as they snuggled into bed with Liz. Bette looked at Tina with a look that said, what are we supposed to say? while Tina just smiled and winked at her. Tina kissed the top of Lizs head before she answered her daughter.

No honey we didnt have a bad dream. Your mommy and I love each other very much and sometimes we like to show each other how much we love one another.

Sometimes?

Tina laughed at Bettes question and wiggled her eyebrows a little before looking back down at Liz who was just looking at them with an innocent look on her face.

Okay we like to show each other a lot how much we love each other. But we love you too and we like to show you how much we love you too.

And with that Tina kissed Lizs forehead and gently wrapped her arms around her and Liz instinctively snuggled deeper into Tinas arms. Bette giggled a little at Tinas explanation and she kissed Lizs forehead too before leaning over Liz and kissing Tina on the lips. Liz looked up at that moment and started giggling uncontrollably at the sight of her two mommies kissing. Bette pulled away and grinned down at Liz as she started tickling her.

What are you laughing at munchkin?

Liz just kept laughing and squirming around while Bette tortured her and Tina finally pulled Liz to the safety of her arms. After Liz settled down a little Tina looked down at her again.

Are you going to miss mommy? Shes going away for the weekend honey.

Where are you going mommy?

San Francisco babyI have to go to a art opening there.

Shell be back before you know it Liz, wont you babe?

Thats rightIm not leaving my two favorite girls alone for too long.

Liz just kind of smiled and nodded not really understanding what Tina was saying when she said Bette would be gone for the weekend and after a few minutes she was fast asleep leaving Bette and Tina to gently kiss each other good night before joining Liz in dreamland.

The next morning Bette was up early like she normally was and she was running around the house making sure she had everything she needed for the weekend. Tina was up as well and she was making them breakfast so they could eat before Bette had to leave. Liz woke up a few minutes later and joined Tina in the kitchen, after using the potty of course, and Tina smiled down at her daughter who wanted to help with breakfast. Liz was just carrying the carton of orange juice to the table when Bette came in with her suitcase so she could put it by the door for the taxi. Liz saw the suitcase and something suddenly must have clicked since she put the OJ down and started crying loudly. Tina and Bette both rushed to her trying to see what was the matter when Liz reached out for Bette who picked her up and tried to sooth her. Liz wrapped her arms around Bettes neck tightly and continued to cry as Bette and Tina tried their best to calm her down. Tina rubbed Lizs back gently and she kissed her arm before talking to her in a soothing voice.

Its okay Lizmommy is only going away for a little whileshe will be back soon.

NONONONONONO

Liz suddenly had a new favorite word and Bette felt her heart melt a little at this. She was going to miss Tina and Liz like crazy and she was sad that Liz was so sad at her being gone. She tried to turn Liz so that she could look her in the eye but Liz had her face firmly planted in Bettes shoulder causing her jacket to absorb most of her tears.

Sweetheart its okayI will be home on Sundaythats in two days baby…Ill be home soon.

Come on honeycome on let gomommy needs to go.

NONONONONONONONO.

Tina was trying to pull Liz off of Bette as the cab pulled up and honked its horn. Bette made her way over to the door and opened it so she could let the cab driver know she knew he was there, but this was difficult since Liz had a death grip on her neck and she was screaming loudly into her ear. Liz kept her firm grip on Bettes neck and she was now wailing for Bette not to leave and it broke Bettes heart to hear her cry like this. Bette did her best to loosen Lizs grip so that Tina could take her but Liz fought her hands off with all her might. Tina finally got a good hold on Liz and pulled her off gently as Liz started kicking and screaming at the top of her lungs. Bette was wide eyed for a second, not really knowing what to do, but Tina just kissed her quickly on the lips and hurried her out of the house. Tina knew it was kind of mean, but the sooner Bette left the sooner Liz would calm down.

MOMMY..

Bette had a pained expression on her face as she gathered her things and walked past Tina and Liz to the taxi. After getting all of her things in the car she quickly ran back up to give Tina one last kiss and she also planted a quick kiss on Lizs cheek before running down and jumping into the taxi. As the taxi pulled away Bette looked back to see Tina holding Liz who was still crying and had her arms outstretched to Bette who was slowly disappearing down the block.

Later that night after Bette arrived in SF and sat through hours and hours of meetings she finally got a chance to call the house to check up on Tina and Liz and when Tina answered the phone Bette could hear the exhaustion in her voice.

Hey baby.

Hey you sound exhausted. Long day?

You wouldnt believe. After you left it took forever to calm her down and when I took her to the day care she threw another tantrum when I was leaving. I think shes having separation anxiety Bette.

Bette chuckled a little at Tinas statement, but nonetheless she was concerned that Liz was having such a hard time leaving them now. Even in the beginning when they first started taking Liz to day care it wasnt this hard. But this was also the first trip she took where she would be gone over night since Liz was born, and Bette made a mental note to not schedule too many more of these until Liz was a little older. Tina sighed a little into the phone and Bette could tell she was stressed.

Baby its going to be okayLiz is going to be fineall kids have this stage where they hate being left alone.

I knowbut it was really bad today. I had to take a half-day and go pick her up because Susan called and said she wouldnt stop crying and she wasnt eating anything. She really misses you babe.

TI was doing some thinking on the flight up here and theres something I want to talk to you about when I get home.

Okaywell we can talk when you get back then. Im sorry babe but Im tiredcan we finish this tomorrow?

Sure babyget some restIll hopefully see you tomorrow night okay?

OkayI love you.

Love you too babygoodnight.

Bye.

Bette hung up and leaned back against the pillows as she settled into the bed in the hotel. On the way up to SF Bette had sat across from a family consisting of a mom, a dad and three kids who seemed to really love each other and their parents. Bette had watched them with a little envy in her mind and she wondered what it would be like to have such a big family that was so well in tact. Just this alone made Bette see how much her life had changed and how much happier she was now that she had a family and a child in her life. Bette never really considered herself the family having type, but after falling in love with Tina again and being with her as she brought Liz into this world, well Bette had changed her ways. Bette never knew she could love someone so much and Liz had captured a piece of her heart that she never thought she would give away. She knew Tina wanted more than one child but she wasnt sure that Tina was ready to have another one and Bette felt that she really wouldnt be able to handle being pregnant and carry a child for nine months, but she really wanted a sibling for Liz. Bette hoped that when she talked to Tina that they could come to some sort of compromise that resulted in another child and Bette grew happy just at the thought. As she fell asleep that night she had a dream that it was her and Tinas 50th wedding anniversary. She saw herself and Tina fifty years from now, old and gray and still in love, and she saw Liz there too with kids of her own who were running around and enjoying life. But Bette also saw three other kids, two girls and a boy, and Bette really wanted this big family. In her dream she distinctly recalled taking a picture with her kids and grandkids and she had been so happy that there were so many people in the picture.

Bette woke up with a smile on her face as she remembered how fulfilled and happy she was in the dream and she went through the rest of her day with the smile still attached to her face. That night she managed to catch a nine thirty flight back to LA and she was walking in the house at quarter past eleven. After quietly setting her things down she crept to her bedroom wanting nothing more than to curl up with Tina and sleep in late the following morning and when she got to the door she stopped and smiled at her beautiful wife who was sleeping peacefully. Bette went in and changed for bed quickly and just as she was about to crawl in next to her she saw Liz sleeping in her spot. Bette grinned and shook her head a little before scooting Liz over so that she could lie down next to her. Tina woke up when she felt Bette lie down and she smiled at her brightly over Lizs head. Bette grinned at her and mouthed, hi to her before leaning over and placing a soft kiss Tinas lips. Tina reached out and held Bette against her for a second longer and they were interrupted by the sound of giggling from Liz, who had woken up and seen her mommies kissing again, and Bette smiled down at her as Liz squealed with happiness before shutting her eyes and falling asleep with a smile on her face. Bette and Tina laughed silently at Lizs apparent enjoyment in catching them kissing again and Tinas eyes soon closed out of sheer exhaustion while Bette watched them both sleeping and sighed contentedly. As much as she wanted her big family, she was totally happy with the one she had now, and Bette knew her life would be just as fulfilling as in her dream if Liz was their only bundle of joy. But it never hurts to ask and Bette hoped that tomorrow, Tina would truly agree and help her make her dream come true.
