Chapter  44

In the weeks that passed Bette and Tina quickly got into a routine, as busy as they both were with their new job ventures they always made time for the other. They would often meet at Tina’s house at least 3 days out of the week where Bette often spend the night, the one getting there first always prepared a dinner or took home take out, things were going great they were both happy to be back in each other’s lives stronger and more in love than ever.

Tina was in the kitchen placing the containers of Chinese food she had picked up, when she heard the doorbell ring.

Tina smiled she knew that was Bette she hurried to the door, and there she was the love of her life clad in a all black pant suit, a crisp burgundy dress shirt complimenting her mocha color skin, it amazed Tina how she never tired of seeing Bette her sheer beauty always took her breath away.

Bette smiled.

“Hi baby” Bette said as she leaned in and gave Tina a lingering kiss.

“Hey you” Tina smiled

“Where’s your key?” Tina asked

“Right here” Bette said shaking her keys at Tina

“So why don’t you use it”

Bette shrugged her shoulders

“I dunno, I mean your home, it just feels strange to be letting myself into your house when I know your home”

Tina shook her head.

“You and your ways” Tina teased
