Tina smiled: “ sure, I would love too”

Bette smiled back: “Great, can I buy you a drink?”

Tina: “ Ok”

They headed for the bar, both nervous in each others company.

They got their drinks and moved over to a corner to talk

Tina: “ Bette what are you scared of?”

Bette: “me nothing” Bette frowned

Tina: “ I can see it in your eyes”

Bette sighed: “ I haven’t been…. I don’t do relationships”

Tina: “ I’m not asking you for a relationship Bette”

Bette: “ your not?”

Tina: “ no I like you, I like you a lot, and the other night…. Well it was amazing. But I would just like to be your friend, and if something develops out of that then great, but if not I will have a new friend.”

Bette: “right”

Tina: “ is that ok with you?”

Bette smiled: “Sounds perfect…….. I really enjoyed the other night, you are amazing”

Tina blushed: “it was good wasn’t it” She leaned closer into Bette, smelling the unforgettable smell of her smooth silky skin.

Bette couldn’t help but move closer to Tina as she said that, and they found themselves looking deeply into each others eyes.

Bette (Fuck me, she is bewitching! She smells so good!) Bette began to lean in to kiss Tina, but Tina held a finger up to Bette’s lips: “not too fast remember”

Bette pulled back flustered: “yeah sorry I forgot there for a moment!”

Tina smiled and stroked a finger down Bette’s arm, sending goose bumps down Bette’s spine: “Maybe, just maybe we could do that again, but for now lets just support your sister and enjoy tonight”

She kissed Bette tenderly on the cheek, her lips grazing across her skin. Bette gasped, Tina smiled with pleasure.

Kit had appeared on stage: “Ladies and few gentlemen, I would like to start by thanking you all for coming tonight, and making the opening of The Planet a success” A roar went up from the crowd…

I would like to call up on stage 2 women that made this all possible, Tina Kennard and my baby sister Bette, please come forward to the stage Ladies”

Bette: “shit, I had no idea she was going to do this”

Tina: “ come on lets not keep her waiting.”

The crowds parted and let the 2 women through to the stage, they climbed up, and Kit handed them each a bunch of flowers, and hugged them…..

Kit: “ thank you so much to both of you for your support, insight and love”

Kit then handed both Bette and Tina a disc each.

Bette frowned: “ what’s this?”

Kit smiled: “a copy of your porn debut, I thought you both would like a copy”

With that said Kit turned back to the mike.

Bette and Tina left the stage with mouths agape,

Kit: “Now ladies and gentlemen because this is a special night, I thought it deserved a special guest”

With those words the stage started to lower into the basement, a moment passed and the stage began to rise again….

Kit shouting: “I would like to introduce to you, my very good friend PINK”

The place exploded, people began screaming, someone even fainted!

Pink began her set, and the place buzzed like an over crowded bee hive.

Bette and Tina shared a dance, and a laugh. Tina chatted to Shane, Alice and Dana… Alice gave Bette the thumbs up.

As Bette sat watching Tina interact with her friends, what felt like a warm blanket feeling settled over her: (Is it possible? Is it real? Has the hard arsed, work motivated Bette Porter started to fall for someone?!?!? Shit who cares…… I can’t not have her in my life) with that Bette smiled at Tina, and Tina nodded understanding, that maybe they could be something after all………….
