Bette opened the bottle and poured while Tina mixed oils for the bath and lights candles. Once the spa tub was filled with the warm fragrant bubbly water they step in. Bette kissed Tina lightly on the lips as she hands her one of the glasses to raise in a toast.

“To love everlasting.” Bette says.

“To everlasting love.” Tina answers.

Setting the glasses down on the edge of the tub where they would be easy to reach they slip into the water facing each other. The look in their eyes expressing the want and hunger that continued to fuel their marathon night of endless pleasure. Once they had sufficiently soaked and bathed each other Tina moved to sit on Bette’s thighs. Wrapping her arms around her neck she nibbles on Bette’s outer earlobe then sticks her tongue into the ear cavity and whispers “take me to bed”.
Bette carefully stands up with Tina’s legs securely wrapped around her middle and steps out of the tub. With both of them dripping wet and not bothering to rinse off the soap or grab towels she carries a screaming Tina into the bedroom and unceremoniously dumps her into the middle of the king sized bed then dives in.

Bette made love to Tina without holding back, without treating her like she’s fragile and breakable. She’d done that in the beginning when they first got together, fearing what Jodi’s cruelty might have instigated. Now she knew they both had all the reassurances they needed and there were no barriers.

Tina felt what it was like to be made love to by someone that loved her with all their being. Her body responded with multiple orgasms and Bette didn’t stop until Tina was fully satisfied. Afterwards she held Tina as closely as their spent bodies allowed until her lover’s breathing returned to normal.

Tina in turn had learned a lot from Bette about satisfying a woman sexually. She was intuitive to Bette’s needs as they matched her own but she also explored and took chances. They’d agreed to exclusivity and would only share their bodies with each other but they didn’t take it for granted that it would always be like this for them. They both wanted to be the best lovers to each other and that meant communicating openly about sex. They offered each other a safe environment to live out their sexual fantasies. They created ways to make every encounter fresh and new, exciting and mutually fulfilling of their sexual needs and desires.

Throughout the night their lovemaking ran the gamut from fucking each other’s brains out to engaging in slow and thoughtful lovemaking. There was no need to rush any part of their tantalizing journey of discovery, bonding, awareness, sensory perception, pleasure, passion, appreciation, and connecting on every level.

Their time together was the most mutually satisfyingly amazing expression of love between two people. There was something incredibly magical about sex when you are with someone that you are bound to by love; someone you’ve completely surrendered your heart, body, soul and mind to.
They were connected in a way that completed them. A sense of oneness existed between them. They both became better lovers to each other that night. They were more intimate on every level; emotionally, mentally, physically, sexually, spiritually. They were always good together as a couple but the shared experiences of this day and night was transcendental.

As dawn broke Tina insisted they get up and take a shower. Thinking Tina wanted to make love again Bette quickly joined her but all they did was cleanse. Tina had something else in mind and time was of the essence. After they dried off they walked naked to an adjoining room with a spectacular view of the ocean. Tina’s rush for time was to make sure they didn’t miss the perfect sunrise which denoted their marathon night of unbridled passion had come to its natural conclusion.

They’d shared hours of dynamic meditation, promise ceremonies and the best sex of their young romance. They’d been courageous and uninhibited. Experimenting in creative ways that used all their five senses; sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste to enhance, explore and express intimacy with a sensitivity that perpetuated the purity and trust of their unconditional love. They were vulnerable yet strong and completely committed to one another.

As they lay naked side by side on a lounger in the enclosed balcony they cuddled under the warm blanket to watch the dawning of a new day. Once the sun had risen they finally closed their eyes for much needed sleep.
