Part 11

Shane stood outside the house and stared at the windows where her friends were in the middle of unfolding their respective personal dramas. Normally she wouldnt even consider doing this, spying on her friends, but concern and worry threw all ethics aside. This was a highly explosive situation and the protective part of Shane wanted to make sure they were as okay as the ***** situation allowed them to be.

She filled her lungs with air. With great hesitance and feeling very uncomfortable she moved to the first window.

Oh, man, how in ***** did I end up being a stalker?

The yell startled her and dreading the worst she peeked inside.

Bette, wait!

She saw Tina jump to her feet, eyes wild and wet with unshed tears.

Oh man, not good.

Bette and Tina
*********************************************
This was IT; Tina felt it on every inch of her skin, in every throb of her hammering heart. Now was the time to decide whether to forgive OR forget. They couldnt continue like this, hurting each other, hurting themselves. It had to stop somehow and they had to move on – together or on their own.

Bette stopped immediately at the sound of her voice, her whole body tense with fear. Clearly optimism wasnt in the cards today – she expected the worst and Tina couldnt blame her. And the devil on her right shoulder even enjoyed the sight of her former lover in such a state of distress, and she was a good enough person to be ashamed of that.

Please stay I. Tina searched everywhere for the right words to explain what she felt, what she wanted them to do, but found none.

Why? Bettes voice was so thin and fragile that Tina had to stop herself from flinching. I cant take much more, T, I just cant. I know I hurt you and she swallowed hard. And that I deserve you have every right to.

No, no Bette, I dont have the right to intentionally hurt you at every chance I get. Tina moved closer. And Im sorry for doing that.

Bette didnt seem reassured at all, it was like she expected the other shoe to drop any moment and squash her like a bug. This was not the confident woman Tina though she knew. Bette seemed broken somehow. Weaker.

In this never-ending nightmare Im the one getting stronger from day to. It seems like shes moving in the opposite direction. Whats going on with her? She must hate being like this. Bette wont allow herself to fall apart, will she?

But she obviously had.

II Bette swallowed again. I want to know if if youre leaving me for good. I have to know if all the pain only lead to more pain and nothing else. I cant go on hoping wishing it destroys me, T.

They stared at each other for a long time.

Do I still have a chance, T? Bette whispered.

Yes. Tina closed her eyes, saddened and relived that the truth was out. Yes, you do.

*********************************************
Back to Shane
*********************************************

Shane sighed with relief; at least they were talking now. She couldnt hear the words, but Bette and Tina seemed okay. For now, anyway. She moved to the other window.

Figures! Shane couldnt help but grin. But I wouldve suspected to find them in the opposite positions, though, but hey, Marina is a veerrry flexible woman – in more ways than one.

Marinas dark head was thrown back on the couch, her full lips parted in lustful moans, and kneeling between her legs a bopping head engulfed in way to much hair, Jenny, was happily munching away at the delicious and juicy lunch served.

A small and very hidden part of Shane was a bit jealous of the apparently tasty treat Jenny dived into, but she didnt dare dwell on it too long – or too thorough. It wasnt healthy. Eating friends werent a healthy diet. The few times Shane had tried that special dish, it only led to stomachache and heartbreak.

So much for talking, Shane thought. I think Marinas even worse than me in that department.
But it seemed that Jenny didnt mind – at least not at this very moment – even if it didnt solve a ***** thing, as Jenny probably would have put it, between them.

And it worried Shane.
Apparently everything worries me these days, Shane thought tiredly. Its not my business. Why cant I just steer clear of the messy stuff – in my life as well as theirs?

But Shane was too good a friend to stay detached too long.

New hobby of yours, Shane, watching Marina come?

Oh *****! Shane practically jumped right up in the air. She hadnt heard the two women walk up to her, too enthralled by the pure eroticism displayed on Marinas uncharacteristically expressive face.

I know, I know, baby, watching her come is fascinating, exiting, even more so than watching her go. And I know you love to watch that, too, with great pleasure. The one you wanted to *****, but never did. Her orgasms and her ***** are two very exiting assets of hers, isnt it?

The other woman behind Francesca stared at the sight with open mouth and huge eyes. Shane almost puked when she saw who she was.

Francesca, how could you do this to her? she hissed. Shes a ***** like an innocent bystander or something!

Francesca smiled. How was I to know that her little girlfriend suddenly changed her appetite – again? Well, she probably went back to the best meal she ever got, dont you think? Francesca smiled. And who can blame her, really? But how was I supposed to know that, Shane baby? Those two enjoying themselves in there werent exactly on the best terms when you kicked me out.

***** nave, that what I am! Shane thought darkly. Of course The Big F wont let Marina go without a fight. Who in their right mind would let someone like her go without doing everything in their power to keep her? And Francesca fight dirty, I knew that, too. Damn me!

Francesca just laughed.
