CHAPTER 8
"That was amazing." Bette pushed her chair back from the table and crossed her legs.
Tina watched Bette reposition her body as she took a sip of wine. The dinner had been as delicious as she had hoped and the company was even better. Bette was as intelligent and funny as she was beautiful. The blonde hadn’t been this comfortable in years.
"How do you do that?"
"Do what?" Tina smiled over her glass.
"Look at me like that."
"How am I looking at you?" Tina watched as Bette leaned forward.
The brunette took a long sip of wine before continuing,
"Like I’m the most beautiful woman you’ve ever seen." Bette shook her head, "Ugh, that sounds so narcissistic. It’s not that I think I am; it’s just the way you make me feel when you look at me like that."
"Does it make you uncomfortable?" Tina could tell by Bette’s demeanor that the brunette was probably feeling the effects of the wine. They were already well into the second bottle.
"No. It’s just that no one has ever looked at me that way."
Tina rolled her eyes, "I find that hard to believe, Bette."
"No, I’m serious. I’ve been with women and I could see that they were attracted to me. It’s just, when they looked at me all I ever felt was their desire, whether it was because they wanted to go to bed with me or because they wanted something from me. But with you… I feel the attraction but there’s something else. It’s like your trying to figure me out." Bette shook her head, "Wow I must sound like an ass. I’m going to stop talking now."
"No don’t," Tina reached out and put her hand on Bette’s leg. Bette was being open and honest and Tina couldn’t help but imagine that this wasn’t an easy thing for the hard-edged no nonsense gallery owner.
"I am attracted to you, very much so; but, I’ve never…" Tina downed the rest of her glass, "I’ve never felt this way before. You talk about the way I make you feel when I look at you but I honestly can’t help myself. You make me feel…"
"I make you feel what?"

Thanks for the update, loved the connection they have but are too afraid to open up about
our writing is so vivid that I can feel their attraction. It is so palpable. How can they keep their hands off each other?
let’s hp[e they won’t lose that connection…is it tomorrow yet? lol
Mmmm…their first kiss. Great update, thanks.
Another amazing update. Can’t wait to read more. Like I said I just can’t get enough of your writing.:) Thank you.
I´m with Tina – tomorrow night cannot come soon enough. I absolutely love your writing.
Great update. They have both undone each other and finding it difficult to talk about and admit. Hope they get over it soon. And yes, tomorrow can’t come soon enough for me either. Thanks for posting .
Wonderful Update!!! What a first kiss. It is so nice to read B&T opening up to each other. Thank you PPVS Happy to see you are feeling better.
scaf….Great chapter! I really love this story. Thanks for the update. I hope you are feeling 100% soon, get plenty of rest and and write more chapters. Thanks for this story. can’t wait for next chapter.
Shucks, I wanted to see drunk Bette (lol). Great update! What’ll when Tina meets Bette at her gallery? How long will Bette be able to remain strong before bedding Tina? Will Tina start to have doubts about being with a woman for the first time? So many questions…
I was enjoying the Thanksgiving Dinner Kiss, Bette showed more restraint than I could have if I were kissing Tina, oh to be so lucky.
Thank you for this great story.Looking forward to the date at the gallery.
i cant get enough of this story scaf!!! give me moreeeee pleaseeee :)
WOW OMG i didnt breathe reading that :) wow that was awsome pps
The imaginary last 4th page was like the abrupt ending to their own date. You are putting pressure on yourself to post even sooner….. Just sayin….:D
Hoping their timeframe is the same as ours and that tomorrow will actually be tomorrow or maybe even sooner? Love every chapter… Thanks.
I think I was kind of holding my breath through this update..!
Thanks for the great update. I love this story. I hope the gallery date goes just as well as the dinner, and maybe they can open up a bit more.
this is the story that I love for an update on everyday :) I am loving this story. More please. Thanks.
I love that a drunk Bette is a horny Bette and she didn’t want to scare Tina off. That is so cute and loving all at the same time. Great read thanks for sharing
Scaf…that was one of the most vulnerable Tibette conversations on fan fic. The openness, honesty, courage that they demonstrated (particularly Tina) was simply amazing! I’m also glad that you are delaying the NC-17. Having the build up is great but more so, for each of them to come to an emotional intimate place – shows deep love and commitment. I love the pace of your writing. Nice to see that Bette isn’t sticking her foot into her mouth. LOL! Glad you are feeling better…thanks for sharing your time-off with us!
That was wonderful and sweet, love it. Can’t wait to see their date tomorrow coming. Please post more, thanks!
Next post can’t come soon enough, either. :)
YAY!! I’m so glad you posted now I’m in a good mood to go working. I loved this chapter, can’t wait for the next :):):)
