Random 24 – Just Because
–
“So…where were we?”
Demonstration over, they pulled away slowly and looked at one another. The happiness was obvious in how the women held and touched each other. In the way they rubbed the tips of their noses before moving apart. Half-seated, half-lying with bodies resting on the king-sized bed in the middle of their room, the women resumed the quiet conversation Tina had initiated.
“Let’s see,” Bette recounted, “Warm or cold, local or exotic with the exception of Europe, car or boat or plane ride away…all on the table right?”
With a grin Tina agreed. “Yes.”
“Romantic and relaxing.” The art lover summarized.
“Sounds about right.”
Bette turned into Tina. They both moved so the taller woman could tuck her right arm beneath her partner to hold the blonde. Tina’s left hip rested on Bette’s abdomen as the taller woman embraced her from behind.
“And…sex would be nice but not a requirement …since you have it here anytime.” Slowly Bette’s hand made its way lower, the destination clear given its path.
“We just made love so behave.” Tina scolded gently then reached for Bette’s left hand with her right. Raising it to her mouth she again kissed the fingers that belonged to the woman she adored. The younger woman wrapped Bette’s left hand with both of hers and exhaled a long breath.
Tina studied the rings on their fingers – in particular, Bette’s. The jewelry was in and of itself, beautiful. Handsome, simple yet striking actually. The couple had chosen these symbols of how precious their relationship truly was about ten months before. To serve a declaration of their love and announce to anyone who took notice that as individuals they had been claimed willingly.
Tina was Bette’s.
Bette belonged to Tina.
The blonde sighed. She remembered one Saturday afternoon not long after they’d placed these rings on each other’s fingers. They were outside. It was early and the season’s air was crisp. Her head rested on Bette’s lap while she read a magazine. Tina remembered how the sun’s warmth was just right. The gentle heat caressed her face as they sat outdoors to enjoy the open air yet somehow everything felt so intimate.
They had worn their commitment rings for a handful of days but already for the blonde it felt so natural. It fit perfectly. Felt perfect. A subtle luster and the tasteful design…in her mind, on her finger it was immaculate. More than its appearance was what it signified. That’s what made it so ideal.

I’m
I’m always delighted to see one of your ‘random posts’. Have a nice break.
Awww, that is so suh-weet! =) Isn’t it lovely that this excellently-written “Random” series is bookended by a happy and loved up TiBette sharing an intimate moment? In the first one, the couple was celebrating their reunion. In this second one, they’re basking in joy just because. Splendidly done, lwordid! Your happy scenes outnumber the sad but equally good ones and when I put them in a timeline, I felt good knowing that the last scene was full of hope. I’m so grateful to you, lwordid, for sharing these lovely Tibette snapshots. I’m so grateful that I stumbled upon your hihgly enjoyable, outstanding writing and I intend to read your earlier posts too. Please don’t stay away too long and write again for us. Enjoy your mini-break! Cheers! =)
One more thing, this series reminds me of tiff_duke’s great “Now and Then” series and it’s equally good! =)
Thank you for the Random snippets of Bette and Tina’s life. I have enjoyed reading these.
I’m sad that you’re going on a hiatus but I respect your creative rhythm and hope to see you again soon. It’s been great following these vignettes, and this last one ties up everything just beautifully. I remember the first random and I see how the circle is now complete. “And the end of all our exploring/ Will be to arrive where we started/ And know the place for the first time.” :)
Thanks. Will miss your stories while you are gone.
What I nice way to go out on hiatus! Thank you!
I don’t know if I am supposed to do this, nut I keep seeing each chapter of Random as being from different stages in B&T’s relationship. The juxtaposition of joyful and loving episodes with the painful ones is excruciating. I know that all love begins full of adoration, playfulness and expectations of forever and ever. Yet despite that beginning, it often turns out badly, full of hurt and bitter disappointment. I know all of this in my head. Nonetheless, your chapters kick me in the gut. I am full of “how could something so good become something so bad? Could something have been done to stop it?” Happy chapters are tinged with the bittersweet. Painful chapters are exceptionally sad because you have shown us what it once was. Dayum, you’re food. Thanks for posting your chapters. More, please.
this chapter once again showed my why tibette was always my favorite couple…and romantic in me see how true love should be…thank you
