Birthday Presence – Part II
Bette began to think of how wonderful a weekend away with Tina could be. Still, there was this uncertainty between them and now, Bette desperately wanted to resolve it.
She went through the motions of changing and preparing for bed. When she came back into the bedroom the sight of Tina on the bed stopped her momentarily. Tina was just turning on her side and reaching up for the light. The yellow light fell across her hair and sent shadows across her bare chest.
“You cut your hair,” Bette said softly.
Tina stopped reaching and put her hand down on the bed. She smiled and basked in Bette’s gaze. “Uh-huh, today.”
Bette smiled. “It’s beautiful. I’m sorry I didn’t notice earlier.” Without planning or thinking she walked to the bed and sat down beside Tina.
They both smiled and looked away for a second, a concession to the tension between them.
Bette looked up again. Tina looked gorgeous. “I’ve missed you this week,” she said.
Tina nodded. “It’s been a busy week.” Bette’s eyes were so dark and deep.
“It got off to a bad start. I’m sorry about that.”
Tina put her hand on Bette’s knee. “It’s alright. I’m sorry for my part in it, too.”
Tina’s hand was warm on her knee. Bette thought a moment, then looked at Tina. “Could we turn back the clock to Monday night and start over?”
Tina smiled and looked deeply into Bette’s eyes. “That depends, do I get to choose the starting point?”
Bette smiles, almost shyly. “Yes.”
“Okay,” She stops to consider as she takes Bette’s hand. “I choose to start at the part where you met me in the hall and wished me a happy birthday.”
“Ah,” Bette pulls Tina’s hand up to her cheek and presses her open palm against it. “Excellent choice.” She lowers Tina’s hand to her mouth. “I believe I began by kissing you.” She closes her eyes and kisses the center of Tina’s palm. When she opens her eyes, Tina’s mouth is open and her eyes are fixed on Bette’s lips. “Yes”, she breathes.

I wonder where Tina is taking Bette?
Gee, I know how it seems time stands still when you’re wrestling with a problem and it just drags on and on. I’m sure it must have felt like months had gone by for Bette. Say, about 3 of them? Good to see you back, Massmom. Don’t be such a stranger.
Absolutely delicious. Please post as soon as you can.
Fanrastic! Can’t wait for the get away trip Tina has planned. They are off to a good start. PPS
