The bar was pretty crowded when I walked in. A couple tipsy girls have started the karaoke onslaught pretty early. ”Girls just wanna have fun indeed,” I chuckled. I kept searching the room for familiar faces, and found Jenny and Kelly sitting at a table by the corner, but no Lena. I started to walk towards the table when my eyes caught those gorgeous curls. There she was at the bar, her red dress perfectly hugging her elegant body; the dress stopped just a couple inches above her knee, showing off those long, glamorous legs. My stomach flipped, I felt an intense tingling from head to toe and immediately felt myself get wet. Apparently, I wasn’t the only one whose head she made turn, as I watched this six foot tall woman start talking to mine. I calmly approached the bar and stood behind Lena.

I heard her politely refusing a drink from the red headed predator, ”C’mon, just one drink. After you dance with me, you’ll be begging to buy me one”

”I’m really sorry, but the only woman I plan on dancing with tonight is my girlfriend.”  Lena replied

”Girlfriend.” I thought to myself, I love hearing that. It’s only been a week since we’ve officially stated that but nothing has sounded more natural.

”Pfffft, girlfriend? I promise you’d be able to forget her once you start dancing with me.”

Before Lena could answer back, I wrapped one arm around her, kissed her shoulder without breaking eye contact with the red headed Amazon in front of us. ”Hi baby” I said loud enough for the other woman to hear. The look of defeat on her face was priceless to say the least. Without another word, she turned around and walked away.

Lena quickly spun towards me and wrapped her arms around my neck, ”I’m so happy you’re here!” She exclaimed. ”Just so you know, I could’ve handled that myself, but it was definitely more fun with my woman protecting me” she giggled.

I grabbed the back of her head and gently pulled her closer to my face. ”Happy Birthday love” I whispered, as I planted my lips on hers. The kiss deepened as she tightened her arms around me.

*ahem* the bartender made his presence known. “What would it be ladies?”
