    Amicus Curiae

    "Makes for an interesting collection of friends when you step out," Alice noted.

    "She and I wouldn’t generally run in the same social circles," Tina agreed. "It’s one of the things I appreciate most about my job – the variety of people I have occasion to interact with."

    The four of them were soon visiting as if they’d always been friends. The wine flowed and stories were shared. Shane even joined them later in the evening, and fit in better than any of them could have anticipated.

    "You are certainly welcome to sleep in my bed," Bette offered quietly. She was touching the back of Tina’s hand with the tip of her index finger as she spoke.

    They sat facing each other on the couch in Bette’s living room sharing a pitcher of water and some quiet time together before retiring for the night. Tina brought her hand up to rest it palm to palm against Bette’s, their fingers alternately interlacing and separating.

    "I need to keep my mind focused on the arguments associated with our morning meeting," Tina replied. "I have a strong suspicion that sharing a bed with you would distract me from my greater purpose."

    "Sharing a bed as we fall asleep could represent an opportunity to perfect each other’s communication skills," Bette said. "Allow us to further develop the argument that will convince others of the tenability of the position you’ve taken."

    "I think you have a full and complete awareness of the position I would take if I was in bed with you and it has nothing to do with debating."

    "I’ve seen you in action. You’re a master debater," Bette closed her eyes and she smiled at the picture that came to mind. "I’m going to let my imagination wander for a moment." 

    "Alright, enough," Tina said with a laugh, rising from the couch. "I’m off to bed."

    "Breakfast at 6:45," Bette mentioned.

    "See you in the morning," Tina replied.

    "Sweet dreams," Bette called after her.

    "I’m counting on it," Tina glanced back to offer the last response.

    She closed the bedroom door and leaned back against it, enjoying the sensation of her heart beating in her chest.

    Tina should have predicted that the one time in her life she had committed to staying focused on a case, was also the one time she met someone next to impossible to resist. But resist her she would. Five weeks until her date in front of the Supreme court. She couldn’t help but wonder if Bette would be as patient as she said she’d be.

    1. Swimmie, I’ve only read page one and I know the rest of it will be awesome. Their banter is just superb, too bad you were not a writer on the show and I most sincerely mean that. I’ve told two or three writers that and I mean it for all of you. I’ll be back.

    2. Five weeks is a long time to let the imagination wander… but I get the impression Bette’s got plenty of patience in reserve, even if she seemingly has few reservations when it comes to what she’ll say to Tina. Enjoyable as ever, jks. Thanks for taking the time to post!

    3. I’m in love with their innuendo laced dialogue! The way the tension is building between these two…Bette is going to blow Tina’s mind! Can not wait for your next post :))

    4. Awwww Swimmie you’ve given us another zinger from these two. Bette had better have the patience to wait for Tina and I have a good feeling that Tina just might surprise her. Bette must remember you have to watch out for the silent types that can giver verbally as good as she gets. The only thing is Tina can deliver the goods when its time. I can hardly wait for the five weeks, hope it is only about two and a half or three for us. Bette is laying it on thick with Tina and it is weighing on her mind but she will make Bette wait. And it will be the best gift that Bette has ever received. Wonderful, wonderful chapter. Thanks for posting. Post when you can.

    5. Surely Tina has heard of multi-tasking? Maybe not. Five weeks will fly by in a flash. Staying overnight after the first date, in separate rooms? You’ve changed the story but I still say, “Well, aren’t they modern!” Loving the dialogue! I’m looking foward to their legal maneuvers as much as their potential romantic ones. Thanks!

    6. Just wanted to inform you that I have zero (0) self control. Zilch. Nada. Zip. I’m reading all 6 pages in one go! As they say back on the farm, “How you like me now?” , Back to the story…
