I went through the whole Christmas break without seeing Bette. The morning after the party, I felt like an idiot. I shouldn’t have put myself out there in the state I was in. I avoided her because I felt foolish and uneasy. Shane didn’t say anything about it, thank goodness Bette hadn’t said anything to her about it.

A couple of days before school was to start again, I decided to go talk to Bette. I needed to apologize for my actions and help make things less awkward when the spring semester starts. I drive my mother’s car and pull up in front of her house and I sigh.

"Let’s do this Kennard," I say to myself and climb out.

I walked up the walkway to the steps and paused. I sigh and walked up the steps to her front door, and I knocked. I heard someone in the house and I took a step back. Moments later the door opened and my heart stopped.

She answered the door wearing a red silk robe. That stopped just above her knees, and it was quite obvious that was all she was wearing. My quick scan of her body took in her long, waxed mocha colored legs. The tie wrapped around her waist, and the opening of her robe showing her clevage, and her beautiful brown hair down and tossed about.

"Miss. Kennard, to what do I owe the pleasure," she asked, a sly smile on her lips. Knowing full well how she’s dressed.

"I..um, wanted to er, apologize."

"For what pray tell?"

"The way I acted, um, after the party," I say, stuttering the whole time.

"Tina, it’s fine. It’s just an infatuation that will go away. I promise."

"That’s just it, I don’t think," I start to say when I see someone in the background and Bette turns around.

"Who is this," the woman says referring to me. She was dressed in only a t-shirt, obviously naked as well.

"She’s," Bette started to answer.

"Aww, I see, she’s a girl scout. Cute, but we don’t need any cookies," she said and giggled.

"Quit being a bitch Gabby and go away."

"Ouch, feisty, save some of that for later," she said and winked at me. She turned and walked away her ass cheeks peeking out from under her shirt and I shake my head.
