Chapter 3

Tina was talking to Eric on the phone. Actually she was busy doing her homework, but he wanted a few minutes of her time.

Tina: So it is Saturday? You know I have to work all day at The Planet, but after that I’m all yours…

Eric (murmuring): I wish…

Tina heard it loud and clear and felt ashamed of doing this to him.

Tina: I’m sorry baby, I’m just…

Eric: Shh, it’s okay. You know I have this crazy idea, why don’t you sleep over after our date on Saturday.

Tina smiled and promised to ask her parents. She asked what the hell she had to wear and if he’s gonna tell her what they’re going to do.

Eric: Just dress casual. I’ll come and get you at 7 pm.

After telling each other how much they loved one another, Tina went down to ask her parents if it was alright to sleep at Eric’s next Saturday. She explained that they had a date with another couple. They agreed, but her mother wanted to speak to her in private.

Vivienne: I don’t want to stop you from sleeping in the same bed with Eric and maybe having sex, but please keep it safe

Tina: Thanks mum, but really… I think I’m just not ready yet.

Vivienne: Take your time, no pressure. It will happen when it feels right.

Saturday
Bette slept late and made some homework. After that she drank some coffee with Alice, Dana and Shane. Hanging out with them was always fun. They would talk about people from school or lovers they had, even if they didn’t have a subject, it was never boring to meet the gang.

Bette: Alright guys, I have to get going, Harry is standing at my front door in less than two hours.

Alice: Oh please Bette, think twice!

Bette: What do you mean?

Alice: Oh never mind, I forgot for a second you had someone who fucked your brains out… makes it hard to think right?!

Bette: Are you jealous?

Alice: Jealous? Me? No god please no…

Shane: alright you guys, enough! Go get ready for your date Bette, and tell me about the girl. Maybe I have to rescue her from her boyfriend before it’s too late.

Bette: Ha ha now I’m your personal meat seeker? Guess what? I’m not! Harry said Eric and his girl have THE perfect relationship so I can only wait and see… I’m not gonna be the one who breaks those two apart!

Shane: You know where to find me if she needs any help huh.

Bette got home and after taking a hot shower she got ready. She dressed in jeans and a purple shirt, because Harry always said she looked hot in purple. After taking care of her make-up she collected her phone and purse. By the time she got downstairs the doorbell rang. Harry greeted her with a small kiss and asked if she was ready to go.

Bette: Where are you taking me?

Harry: Just wait and see, I think it will be fun.

After driving for half an hour he pulled up on a parking spot near the fair. They got out and walked to the entrance. Harry paid for the tickets and he said that they had agreed to wait for each other at the ferris wheel so they headed that way.

At the ferris wheel
Tina and Eric were already waiting at the Ferris wheel. Eric was sitting on one of the flower containers and Tina stood between his legs, holding his hands and giving him small kisses now and then.

Tina: What if I don’t like her? I’m not best friends with Harry so what if this date turns out to be a disaster?

Eric: No, you’ll like her. I heard a lot about her and she seems cool to me… oh look here they come!

Tina turned around and stared at the couple. Harry and his girl…
