Bette had laughed out loud at the spectacle, once again attracting the frustrated and hungry youngster’s interest. Bette had slowly reached out her hands and held the grapefruit in front of her silently praying that it was a suitable alternative to oranges.
Slowly the baby elephant lifted his head from the grasses and began walking along the river. He did not stop to graze nor did he look around, but walked with clear determination and intention, towards the awaiting brunette. As he had neared her, he paused, and had raised his trunk fully above his head and had curled it over then under into an almost impossible knot.
The baby elephant had lowered it’s head then, and had carefully unfurled it’s trunk, before flapping his ears excitedly, and had run over to the waiting brunette, his ungainly gait reminding her of a child taking it’s first uncertain steps.
The baby elephant had stopped, no more than a trunks distance away from her, and stared her in the eye. Bette had been mesmerised, afraid to move a muscle in case she scared him away.
They stayed that way for minutes neither moving, a feeling of peace washing over Bette as she had looked into the large jet black eyes protected by long curly eyelashes, any woman would be proud of. Then slowly but surely the elephants curiosity got the better of him. He reached out gently with his trunk raising it towards Bette’s face. She had been shocked at the rush of air she felt as he sniffed her face, the tiny hairs on the tip of his trunk tickling her as he grazed her skin softly. Without warning she had sneezed then, the tickling sensation becoming to much for her sensitive nose.
With a snort he had withdrawn his trunk sharply, a startled expression on his face. It took a few more minutes before he had been brave enough to once again explore the beauty before him, raising his trunk to touch her face, like a blind man feeling his way.
He had finally stepped forward, as his trunk found its way to the treat awaiting him held loosely in Bette’s hand. Bette had kept hr arms raised, turning her palms upwards, offering him her special treat. He had wrapped his trunk around the fruit, bringing it eagerly to his small mouth, pushing it in forcefully like a child eating a piece of chocolate cake with his fingers.

Oh you know what? have you ever seen harold and kumar go to white castle?? if so I was having a flashback to the cheetha part. LMAO
Meeting each other half way? I hope so. Post again soon.
You have such a gift for describing human and animal interaction. The baby elephant is a perfect example. I could almost feel my own hairs standing on end.
Hopefully, the dust is Bette coming back to say good-bye to Tina and apologize. If they meet halfway, then they know they will be able to get through everything else until they see each other again.
TB what a way to leave us hanging, have now caught up with your story….now i think you are going to have a human stampede of T&B Fans on your hands if anything happens to Tina….LOL…
I hope it is another vehicle approaching that will help Tina out.
Awesome story just want to let you know, love it.
Thank you.
OMG! Please let it be Bette. We can’t have Tina getting run over in a stampede. That would be way too much drama for my Tibette heart. Beautiful chapter!
This excitement is killing me, tbsaver!! I’m soo glad that I don’t have to wait to find out what happens! I completely loved the story with Bette and the baby elephant. Beautiful.
