Chapter 8
"How are you feeling this morning?" Bette asked.
"Thirsty," Tina replied. "But otherwise remarkably good. I didn’t phone too early did I?"
"I’ve been awake for a while," Bette said. "I’m reviewing artists’ catalogues for an upcoming show. How long have you been up?"
"About all I’ve done is shower," Tina replied. "Now I’m lying in bed again contemplating what to do until I go to Eric’s this afternoon."
"I like that I’m the first person that came to mind," Bette said. She grimaced slightly at what her words may have implied.
"Well, you were the last person on my mind before sleep last night," Tina replied. She made every effort to be nonchalant in her commentary. Her subconscious was quietly processing the previous evening.
"Why don’t you come over?" Bette said. "Bring what you need for the weekend and you can go to Eric’s from here."
"You’re obviously working," Tina said. "I don’t want to bother you."
"I’ll finish later, after you leave," Bette said. "Tina…it’s why you called, just come over."
Tina smiled. Bette had the capacity to hear what wasn’t explicitly stated. She had always found that kind of intuition very appealing.
"An hour okay?"
"See you then," Bette replied.
*******
Tina had made a decidedly different choice on bathing suits today. There was nothing modest about the bikini she wore, and Bette was thankful for the sunglasses she knew would disguise the direction of her gaze. She couldn’t help but wonder if there was intent behind Tina’s selection.
A large jug of mineral water, garnished with fresh torn basil and cucumber slices, rested on the small table between their lounge chairs. Tina was already on her second glass.
"It went well with Alice last night," Tina noted. "You must be relieved."
"We both knew early on that we were better suited to friendship," Bette said.
"I don’t know that I could fall back into friendship that quickly," Tina said. "But I guess the difference is men and women aren’t friends the way women can be."
"Right," Bette said. "You and me for example. I mean…if you were gay of course. We’re getting to be quite close. And if we decided we wanted to try for more…"

I sense that Tina is heading for a tipping point.
Great chapter. At least Tina is admitting to herslf, barely but still admitting to herself. She’s getting there slowly. She’s afraid of what she feels because she can tell already how strong those feelings are becoming. Eric is about to become a nuisance. I can hardly wait to see how she will react to her complete realization when it hits. Hope your baby is feeling better. Thanks for posting.
Wonderful as always and thanks for posting so often. I think Tina knows Bette would be interested in more then a friendship with her, so I think it’s up to her to make the first move.
That last part wow
Bette is playing it cool, waiting for an overt sign from Tina. Waiting, waiting until Tina is ensnared by her own volition not Bette trapping her. Bette’s eyes are half closed just waiting….
Wow Tina is evolving, can’t wait to see how you weave this tale. Loved it
Smart dialogue s what you are gifted in writing. Just awesome. Thanks swimmie 🐠
Ah, Tina is contemplating tipping the velvet, good for her, there’s nothing wrong with a little fantasizing about Bette or a lot – considering how good she looks in a bikini. I sense some trouble in WehoCity and it rhymes with L.
So good
Oh my, Swimmie…barely admitting, but admitting it still. I like it.
Hi There….again. Man u r really coercing me from being a silent reader to non-silent. Ur pace is great, ur inner demons and inner thoughts are greatly narrated, though as my 1st post stated (kinda)….. MORE, MORE MORE UPDATES….PLEASE!!! Now back to being *SILENT* thank you!!
At some point I felt things were accelerating. Please don’t speed up the story. Make it last. (I think this sounded a little peculiar..).
It is amazing how quickly you write and post!! It’s really awesome. Love where this story is headed!!
“Unless” vs “until”… world of difference between those two words, but it seems Tina’s considering them all the same. Thanks for posting. :)
Wow, you have got me absolutely hooked. I’m amazed at not only how quickly you have been updating, but also how amazing the quality of each update has been. You are a wonderful writer-the visual descriptions, perfect mix of realistic dialogue, and insight into their inner thoughts. Keep up the great work!
Great.PPS
Another excellent update. Thank you
“…his orgasm left him entirely spent.” Tina, should she decide to enhabit her Bette fantasy, is going to be pleasantly surprised, isn’t she? She’ll encounter entirely new concepts. The S words: sensously sustained stamina. Not to mention, the P words: polymorphously perverse. And the M word: multiorgasmic! Love as a learning game! Hope your tot is feeling better! Loving this story. Thanks for posting!
Great update
Amazing chp, Loved it. P.p.s
Much more realistic story as your telling it . Enjoying it much
This is truly one of your best stories, JKS. The slow burn has been phenomenal, although I’m now getting anxious to see what happens!
Two words for ya Swimmie. Loving this!!!!!!! I do a happy dance when I see a post from you. Keep the chappies coming…whatever the pace. Oops, guess this was more than two words. Lol! Thanks!
