Tina quietly moaned into the kiss and felt her knees give way. Bette instantly wrapped her other arm around Tina’s waist and pulled her close to her body. The kissed continued for only a moment, when Bette pulled back. Leaning their foreheads together, both breathing as if they had just run a marathon. Tina felt so safe in Bette’s arms, she never wanted to leave. But she pulled away after a few minutes, afraid of what might happen if she stayed any longer. Bette winced when she felt Tina’s warm body leave her own, but quickly recovered when she saw that brilliant smile on Tina’s lips. Bette silently congratulated herself for putting that smile back on Tina’s face.

They stood watching each other for a few moments, both waiting for the other to say something.

“Have dinner with me tomorrow night” Bette commanded, surprising herself with her confidence.

“Um, I would love to, but I think I need to talk to Eric before we continue with anything.” Tina said.

Bette felt as if the wind had been knocked out of her. She just nodded her head and lowered her eyes from Tina’s, afraid she would cry if she continued looking at her. Tina saw the hurt she had just caused Bette and quickly tried to recover.

“After I talk with Eric I would love to go to dinner with you. Would a late dinner be ok with you?” Tina said with a ***** smile.

Bette lit up like a light bulb and smiled that million watt smile of hers. “Of course that would be wonderful. Can I pick you?”

“Sureumm” Tina searched her purse for a business card. Once she found one she wrote on the back her address and cell phone number and handed it to Bette. Bette looked at it and smiled and then looked up at Tina. Tina had that ***** smile on her face and said “Pick me up at 8″ and with that she walked out of Bette’s office and out the gallery with an extra swagger in her hips.

Bette watched her all the way out of the gallery, mesmerized by her curvaceous hips and that perfect little *****.
