Chapter 5
They were quiet for most of their dancing, just content to hold one another again. Bette held Tina with a protective nature that she hadn’t felt in years, but it was something that grew on her more easily this time around. Tina was so much more than just another girl. Tina meant the world to her, even after all of this time.
Finding it too public and suddenly too overwhelming, they decided to leave and head back to Bette’s little house. As they passed the circle of friends, Tina checked in with them, and then they left the club.
Bette was starting to wonder if this was a good idea – Tina staying at her place. Surely she had missed her, but did Tina expect something? Even though she’d been drinking? They walked over to the truck, and Bette walked around to open Tina’s side first.
"That’s so sweet," Tina smiled, resting her hand on Bette’s lower back as the door was pulled opened.
Bette tried to slow her racing heart, trying desperately to hide how deeply each touch affected her; this woman who had captured her heart so long ago.
She just motioned for Tina to climb up into the truck, and helped her with the task. As she closed the door again, she shook her head. It had been so long since anyone had used the passenger side of her truck – the few women she’d been with had never been back to her place. They’d invited Bette to theirs.
As she made her way around the truck, she had wanted to laugh in realizing that Tina had actually been the last person in that very seat.
Suddenly that realization struck something very real in her, climbing in on her own side.
"You’re the most special woman I’ve ever known," Tina said, slightly intoxicated, and Bette could see that. Starting the car, she chuckled to herself, lovingly glancing over to Tina’s smile.
"Yeah?"
Tina nodded, looking into Bette’s eyes. They seemed so much clearer than she remembered, but maybe it was some newfound understanding. "It’s gonna be a long drive?" It was obvious she hadn’t meant the statement as a question, but had accidentally spoken it that way in her somewhat drunken stupor. She silently cursed herself for the slip, her eyes gazing over the way Bette relaxed into her seat and held the wheel with one strong hand. She looked so in control, so raw in every aspect of her life. She was the most honest person she had ever met. No games, just trust.

Lovely chapter, sweet story. Wondered why Bette lived away from everyone and in a community that was not accepting of her. Glad you answered the questions but so sorry she has to be so alone. Surely more of their backstories will be unveiled in future chapters. Really, really like the story and the way that you are unfolding it for us. Thanks for posting.
Soo sweet and gentle!Wonder how’ll they proceed from here, hope it’ll be as sweet and gentle as soo far. Love the story!

I am so addicted to this story. I hope Bette can get passed her insecurities enough to let Tina into her life.
Incredible story. Cannot have enough of it. And i am so excited now that they have found each other again. Great Great great story thank you.
That was so wonderfully sweet. You have got to admire Bette’s restraint and strength. You could feel the heat between them.
Thank you for another lovely chapter. I have to read your posts twice – once quickly as I’m impatient to know what is happening and then again more slowly to appreciate your writing! It is interesting to begin to discover the reasons behind Bette’s isolation. Looking forward to the next instalment – very soon?!
Just an amazing story. Thank you.
Awesome chapter! It gave us an insight into Bette’s background, Tina’s growing up process, their deep feelings and connection, the all wrapped up with affection and sweet teasing. It’s a testament to your writer skills that this chapter is awesome and not sappy.I love this story. Read you very soon.
