Previously:

Bette and Tina looked at each other both a little shocked by the events that had occurred the previous evening when Tina finally spoke. Im a little embarrassed by my behavior last night but thank you Alice for making sure that Bette and I didnt do anything stupid like try to drive ourselves home. Tina said sheepishly. She then turned to Bette and took her hand in her own and whispered, thank you Baby for coming to my rescue last night! It was very sweet of you but there is something I should tell you. Tina said as a look of concern crossed her face.

What is it Tina? You can tell me anything! Bette said reassuringly. Bette was a little nervous wondering what Tina had to say but she hoped she sounded confident.

Ok, welljust so you knowIm not pregnant.but I would like to be your girlfriend! Tina said with a smirk.

The Morning After – Chapter 10:

Tinas bold admission shocked even herself but she had never been more sure of anything in her life. From the moment she saw Bette last evening she felt powerfully drawn to her in a way she couldnt explain or understand. All she knew was that she was willing to throw caution to the wind to see what might happen with Bette or she would forever be riddled with pangs of regret. Tina sensed that somehow fate had intervened to bring them together and she had every intention of taking advantage of this opportunity. Tina looked at Bette nervously waiting for some reaction or response.

Bette stood up, smiled, and extended her hand to Tina as she spoke, Excuse us ladies, Tina and I have somewhere to be! Bette wanted more than anything to pull Tina into her arms and hold her close but she longed for a little more privacy, away from the prying eyes of Alice and Dana.

Tina shrugged and smiled at Alice and Dana as Bette pulled her away from the table. She glanced back over her shoulder to see Alice and Dana staring after them with their mouths agape. Tina waved and mouthed, Nice to meet you, before she turned around and giggled at a hurrying Bette as they rushed out the door.
