“THUD”

Bette spun around looking for where the loud noise had come from. She started laughing hysterically when she saw Alice sprawled out on the floor. “What happened?” Bette managed to get out between giggles.

“I was trying to get a better view of you two when I slipped off the edge of the chair I was standing on” said a very embarrassed Alice.

Normally Bette would be very upset with Alice trying to butt into her personal life, but she was on such a high from Tina that she couldn’t have cared less about Alice‘s antics. Alice brushed herself off and excitedly asked for full details.

“Well all I’m going to tell you is that it was the most wonderful experience of my life and I have a date tomorrow night with the most beautiful woman in the world.” Bette said beaming with excitement.   

“Ok so what’s the plan? What do you need me to do?” Alice said, excited about getting to put another plan into action.

“Nothing, I can handle all this on my own. You have already done your part and now I can do the rest. I want to make it magical for Tina and I want to know that I did it on my own.”

“Fine” Alice said dejectedly.

Bette laughed at her friend, and put her arm around her. “Let’s go home. I have a big day tomorrow.” They left for their separate homes. Alice thrilled for her friend and thrilled that she saw the potential these two have, before anyone else saw it. Bette went home with a perma-smile. She didn’t yet know where to take Tina tomorrow, but she would spend the rest of the night deciding because there was no way she would be able to fall asleep after that kiss.

At Tina’s.

“WOW!!!!!!!!!” Tina said out loud to know one. She was riding a wave of excitement and couldn’t help but walk around like she was on cloud nine. She knew that she should be terrified about getting into a relationship with a woman, but she wasn’t. It was like she knew everything would be ok because it was Bette, how could her life be anything but unbelievably wonderful with Bette in it. The only problem now was how to tell Eric to take a hike.

Both, Bette and Tina lay in bed dreaming of each other and what the future held for them. But first they had to get threw tomorrow in order to get to tomorrow night. Both had different obstacles to get over. Tina had Eric, and Bette had all day at work sitting thinking about Tina.
