“May I… interupt?” Asked Tina.
Bette was speechless…there was Tina standing in her blue jeans…and white wife

beater shirt….she stopped dancing…
“This must be Tina…” said Martie..looking Tina up and down…
“Yes…yes it is..” said Bette..as she stood in amazement at her beautiful wife.
“So…may I?” asked Tina again…
“By all means….dance with your wife…” said Martie..before she made her way

back up to the dj booth…
“Look Kit…” she said as she pointed to Bette and Tina on the floor dancing

slowly together..
“They are soo made for eachother…even though Tina made a mistake…I know that

Bette still loves her..”
“How can you not love a body like that?ummm…”
“Alright…Martie…pipe down…that is my sis’ wife…”
“I know…” said Martie as her eyes peeled to Bette and Tina dancing.
Neither of them said anything…just held eachother and danced….
Over the speaker, they heard…”And this is for those 2 special women out on the

dance floor….love eachother like you never have….” and they could hear a song

slowly starting and then continuing with the softest, sexiest beat…Tina

tightened her grip on Bette..never wanting to let go…’I am so sorry baby…’ she

thought to herself….
“T?” said Bette softly…
“Yea?”
“I’m really sorry about today….I mean..I was such a *****..”
“It’s ok…you have every reason to be that way towards me…And I am sorry….for

doing this to us…I don’t know what happened with me…I really don’t…I hurt

you…and I am soooo sorry..” said Tina through the tears…
“It’s okay T…really…I probably deserved it anyway…”
“No…you didn’t…I just got lost somehow…”
The song stopped and went into an up beat song….they walked off of the dance

floor…”Bette….I know that this is too soon…but can we just go somewhere and

talk……like adults…no screaming and yelling…just talking…”
“Yea..sure…come on…” said Bette as she walked towards the exit..
They sat in Bette’s car…”Where do you want to go?” asked Bette.
“I don’t know…anywhere that is quiet…”
“Ok…” Bette started the car and drove up the coast to what used to be their

favorite spot on the beach…
“Aww..I love this spot..ever since the first day we came here…”
“Yea..me too…the sunrise and sunset are so beautiful from here….beautiful just

as you are T..”
Tina looked over at Bette and smiled..”Bette, I want you to know how sorry I

am…I was just so confused about everything…that’s when Eric called me and

wanted to see me…it felt right somehow…I don’t know why…not right as

in..relationship right…i don’t know exactly how to explain it….but when we

ended up making a mistake….a huge mistake….I knew that it was over between you

and I…or atleast I thought that you wouldn’t want me after being with

him…..being with a man…”
“But Tina..u didn’t even try with me…you just went straight to him…” said

Bette calmly..
“I felt…I felt like you didn’t want me..”
“But…you didn’t even give me the chance to cool off and talk to you…”
“I know..I was stupid…but I am here now…and crazy or not…we are actually

talking and not fighting…”
“So are you gonna still stay with Eric or what?”
“No….”
“Do you have a place of your own?” asked Bette…
“Actually, that’s one thing I wanted to talk to you about….I would like to move

back in if that’s okay..I won’t bother you…I may not even be there much….I’m

about to start back at the center full-time..but I need somewhere to stay…”
“Yea…I don’t have a problem with that…”
“If we could Bette…I would like to start over..u and I…I mean, let’s just be

friends…and go from there….is that okay with you?”
“Well, I don’t see a problem with that either..”
“I would really like my wife back…but I will settle for what I can have right

now…”
“Ok…” said Bette…”Come on…let’s go home…”
“Great..” said Tina all excited…
On the drive back, Bette asked about Tina’s things at Eric’s…
“I figured I’d stop by there tomorrow….I’m still gonna be friends with

him..Bette…he has cancer…and I can’t just leave him alone…”
‘I can’t ***** believe this’ Bette said to herself…’she is still falling for

that sob story..’
“Ok..” said Bette…”I don’t guess that we are together…we are only

friends….so you can have what friends you want……”
‘as long as they have cancer, I guess..’ thought Bette to herself…’this is gonna

be soo hard…..’
“Bette…you can have your friends also…”
‘just what i want….friends…’ Bette thought..
