“Ow, ow, ow,” Tina winced, squirming and pulling her feet off of Bette’s lap.
“Baby, you need to sit still,” Bette said.
“It hurts.”
“I know it hurts, but if you stop wiggling I can make it stop hurting, okay?”
Tina nodded reluctantly, and bit her lip while Bette tried to loosen the cramp in her calf muscle. After several minutes, Bette could feel the tension beginning to dissipate under her hands.
“Any better?” Bette asked, continuing to concentrate on the painful knot.
“Yes, much better,” Tina said, relaxing against the couch a little more.
“Good. Stay here-I’ll be right back.”
Bette got up and returned a few minutes later with a bottle of lavender massage oil.
“This is pathetic,” Bette said, holding the bottle up for Tina to see.
“I thought you liked lavender.”
“Lavender is fine. The fact that this bottle is two years old and almost full is what I don’t like,” Bette said. “Let’s go.”
Bette extended her hand to Tina to help her up from the couch. “How’s the leg?”
Tina gingerly put her weight on her left foot, nodding. “As long as we’re not going for speed or distance, it’ll be fine.”
“We’re going to bed,” Bette said, circling her arms around Tina’s waist.
“3:30′s a little early for bed, don’t you think?” Tina asked, raising her eyebrows.
“I didn’t say we’d be sleeping.” Bette nuzzled Tina’s neck, brushing her lips lightly against her cheek. “Come on.”
Bette knew she had a beautiful wife. Tina had captivated her instantly, from the first moment she walked into Bette’s gallery all those years ago. And Bette knew that the visceral spark she felt wasn’t because of Tina’s winning personality. That all came later, along with her appreciation of Tina’s intelligence, wit, playfulness, and a thousand other qualities. But as Bette always said when telling the story of how they met, ‘You don’t fall in love with someone’s personality across a crowded room. It’s the physical attraction. And the lust, of course.’
To say that time had been kind to Tina was an understatement. Bette watched her wife go from her mid-20s to early-30s and swore that she’d simply never aged. One night about a year ago, Bette had felt compelled to bring this to Tina’s attention.

See this is what were talking about. This is the Bette and Tina we know and love, and want. Someone please tell IC. And, OMG could we want Ms. Bette anymore than we already do.
This is the Bette and Tina that we need to see on S3. Love this bette,she is so in love with Tina. They are both so in love with each other. thanks
Lucky,lucky Tina.
And lucky us for getting to read this story, some for the first time and some for second, savoring time.
Your story flows like water in a gentle babbling brook. It dips, turns and slows as necessary.
It’s the little things like finding an underused bottle of massage oil that remind us of the importance of taking time for each other. Noticing is half the battle, making sure you follow through is the other.
Chemistry is a powerful thing, without it we are just friends.
Loved the reference to The Picture of Dorian Gray. Tina I imagine is aging gracefully in such a way that Bette cannot see it. She is not only too close to Tina, but with their reconcilliation her appreciation for Tina has become magnified – putting her on the pedestal of Aphrodite-like beauty. It’s a nice view for either of them.
The snap shots that you are giving us are sublime. Love and reconncection are such wonderful antidotes for a world gone mad.
:) :) :) :) I’m speechless
“I’m making sure that massage oil doesn’t go to waste,”
Oooh, I love this Bette!
awwwwwwwww…..what could be better than this?
Yippee, I’m all caught up now. You just made my heart skip a beat and I must admit that’s not very easy to do. It’s so very stubborn. (smile)
This is a phenomenal story and your attention to detail and emotion is admirable. Your ability to bring into focus the things we often take for granted speaks volumes. Ah yes, “The Picture of Dorian Gray”…. “There is a luxury in self-reproach. When we blame ourselves, we feel that no one else has a right to blame us. It is the confession, not the priest, that gives us absolution.” Both you and Mr. Wilde rock!!
Good God! Why aren’t there more Bette-like lovers out there?! The woman is so gosh dang attentive! She’s passionate about everything she does…no 50% or 74% always full throttle 100%! DAMN!!! Whoever has a lover like that in their lives is one lucky bugger and I hope they let their lover know it!
GREENIE – what are you doing my angel. you should be writing another chappy for us. teehee. i understand having to read this perfection.
BARRIE – loved your comment. wouldnt we all.
ffc – “lavender is fine. the fact that this bottle is two years old and almost full is what i dont like. lets go. …. were going to bed.”
“you dont fall in love with someones personality across a crowded room. this the physical attraction. and the lust, of course.”
“i think youve made some kind of deal with the devil, like dorian gray. “
“her breasts more than filled bettes hands with their suppleness.” hot dayum.
“…peeling out of her own shirt and cotton draw string pants …” cant breath
