Bette: Send him a text now and ask him if he could have a couple of people help make the beds tomorrow when the mattresses are delivered.  That will help big time. So, when we stop for the day, the bed will be ready for us. Is this all we can do in here?

Tina:  Yeah, let’s pack that bag and you call in our food order. I’ll get the bag. You make the call. We will pick it up in 45 minutes.

Bette: Oh yeah, we are in Santa Monica, aren’t we?

Bette:  I’m going to wear a jogging suit and a tank top tomorrow. And my second pair of tennis shoes. I have a feeling I am going to need to pitch these and get some new ones.  Okay, now where did I put my stuff.  Oh yeah.  She went and pulled out some underwear, a jogging suit and her thank top. She also pulled out her new Yale t-shirt and some boxers to wear to bed. Tina saw them in the suit case and packed hers as well. Bette grabbed her shower kit and put it into the bag. Tina grabbed hers and they zipped up the bag. They then put the bag in the middle of the room and walked to the balcony. There were two full swivel chairs a coffee table a couple of end tables and a large outdoor sofa. The sofa was perfect for cuddling and enjoying each other’s company. The cushions were soft and inviting. The covers were in a blue gray color which were inviting for Bette and Tina to sit and pull each other close.

Bette: Well? What do you think?

Tina:  I think this is perfect. I love this. Our little outdoor oasis. Maybe we can have our coffee out here on the weekends.

Bette:  It looks far better than I ever imagined it would.  Spaces this small give me a little trouble visualizing.  You are right, this is perfect and I love the color. Just need a couple of plants and it will be ours.

Tina:  We can go visit a nursery sometime next weekend. The patio needs a few plants as well.

Tina stood up and pulled Bette to her feet. She then led her into the bedroom and closed the doors and locked them. Bette then pulled Tina into a long and loving kiss.
