Chapter 9

Bette and Alice emerged from the opera house at the conclusion of the show with huge grins on their faces. Alice’s face glowed from both the aftermath of an intense orgasm as well as the slight embarrassment due to where it took place. Bette’s smile was because she enjoyed Alice’s reaction to it all. Their arms were linked together as they walked to Bette’s car. It had definitely been an interesting date thus far.

Alice sign contently, laying her head on Bette’s shoulder as they walked. “I can’t believe we did that,” she stated in semi-awe of the situation. “It was absolutely unbelievable, Bette. I mean the way it was timed…” a second rush of desire swept through her remembering the experience, “Wow.” Bette just smiled as she unlocked the car door from her remote and opened the passenger side for Alice. Sauntering over to the drivers side, Bette glided into her seat, fastened her seat belt and started the car.

Each woman was grateful for the silence on the way home so they could engross their thoughts on what they were feeling. Alice couldn’t help the flashbacks to the opera as she devised her own plan of action when they finally got back to her place.

Alice sat dividing her attention between the stage and the ravishing beauty beside her. Bette had really made a change since her accident, spoiling Alice with several romantic gestures: flowers at her office, breakfast in bed, but most importantly actually leaving work at a decent hour. That was one of Alice’s requests when they actually discussed their previous argument calmly like mature adults. She was surprised Bette actually acquiesced to it.
