The Planet 
Bette (groaning as her own fingers rubbed her clit furiously): That’s it baby, let go. You’re so beautiful when you come. I love the way you look when you cry out your release (her own release hit her soft and slow as she heard Tina’s cries over the phone. She bit her lip to keep from screaming as Tina cried out again.

Tina kept her hand against her soaked pussy; her other hand clutching the desk. She listened to her lover’s muffled cry through the phone. She smiled as Bette told her she loved her. Her reply was as quick and serious as she told Bette that she loved her, always had loved her and never stopped loving her. They talked for a little longer when Helena came through the door.
Helena (noticing how flushed Tina was; her quickened breathing and the way she was clutching the desk): Are you (Tina nodded and pointed to the door. Helena shut it and sat and waited. Her own clit was throbbing knowing exactly what Tina had been doing, feeling a little tensed up after reviewing some footage earlier.)
Tina (hanging up the phone): Helena can you just give me five minutes….
Helena (understanding): Of course. I’ll get you a Pepsi and some crackers….
Tina (smirking): And some ice. Please.
Helena (nodding; she needed ice for herself): Be right back.

The Planet Back Lounge
Bette (grabbing a napkin, wiping herself gently so as not to give away anything and trembling as the rough material grazed over her clit): Shit…
Tasha (stepping back): Sorry. (Smirking) Alice was right (laughing) I’ll tell them your on the phone or…
Bette (nodding): Thank you.
Tasha (winking): You owe me Porter…
Bette (suppressing a groan as Tina’s words were the same): Of course.

The Planet Front Bar
Kit (laughing): So as I’m walking out of the house in comes Bette looking like she hadn’t slept in a week and she was shaking like a leaf. I asked her what the hell happened to her and all she said was Tina? (The table erupted into laughter) I never thought I would see that day when someone could knock Bette on her ass and keep her there.
Papi (teasing): Women just have to know how to handle you Porter’s.
Peggy (shaking her head): So once you knew who this Tina was….
Kit (giggling): I was determined to find out more but that of course had to wait for a few days while my sister slept and rested after the marathon weekend she had.
Carmen (returning with Angie): Hey what’s all the giggling about?
Angie (reaching for Papi): Stitch go boom…
Kit (groaning): Bette is going to strangle you.  
Tasha (rubbing Alice’s back): At least you won’t be blamed.
Alice (smirking): No, I’m almost positive Pod Person here will invoke my name several times.
Peggy (wondering): Who? Never mind…
Shane (walking up to the table with Bette in tow): Well Bette approves of what we accomplished so you can go into your office now Kit.
Kit (standing): Boo you want to come and see what a mess your Aunt Shane made?
Angie (giggling): No, not my mess, Aunt Shane’s mess?
Shane (bending down and scooping her up): Mess I’ll give you mess (tickling her. Kit went to look st her office anxious to see if in fact she needed that backhoe.)
Angie (looking to Peggy): Noni…
Peggy (smiling): Of course (swatting Shane on the ass) put her down you brute.  
Shane (laughing as Angie hugged her and squirmed down to go to her momma): Hey! Momma Porter, she told me I was messy. 
Bette (picking Angie up): Did you say that? (Angie nodded) good girl.
Kit (walking back out there): Shane McCutcheon you get your bum in there and Papi and Carmen that goes double for you two.
Shane (shrugging): I didn’t do it…
Angie (piping up): Yes you did.

Shaolin Studios
Helena wheeled another cart in wincing as Tina reamed whoever it was on the other end. She noticed the tense body and wiping her hands on her slacks stepped behind her and pushed aside long blond hair. Placing her hands on Tina’s shoulder she started messaging tight muscles waiting for her to get off the phone.
Tina (slamming down the receiver): He is such an idiot. Rancer couldn’t wipe his ass without instructions. (Mumbling over the hand that covered her mouth.)
Helena (losing control quicker and quicker; being this close to Tina, feeling her body, her heat, she lost herself in a haze of lust; trapped between dream and a reality): Tina shh…
Tina (feeling something shift between them): Helena…
Helena (fighting her body and mind’s war): Tina (softly) I’ve wondered if she was out there or is she elusive. Will she be like me or will she be the opposite. Will she use me and abandon me, hurt me, and rip my heart out? Or will she walk beside me in gentle content sharing, and heal wounds and scars inflicted both maliciously or for some other reason?
Tina (wondering): Helena (trying to turn around only to find herself wrapped in a vice grip; trapped between a memory and reality; her own body was still throbbing from Bette’s earlier seduction; her own body betrayed her as she responded) please….
Helena (pressing her lips to Tina’s neck): I remember the first time I saw you, the first time you smiled at me. I went home that night after spending an evening in your company, an evening basking in your presence and I couldn’t even take a shower without trembling in desire. It was the first time in a long time I felt truly alive.
Tina (understanding): It was a rough time for both of us…
Helena (softly; moving her lips along Tina’s neck): But then, and now, they shift back and forth. You are with your soul mate. Your (shifting her body) “Mo Anam Cara” and I wondered if it was possible for someone to have two soul mates. (Rubbing Tina’s hands) or was it destiny to walk alone in shadow with snippets of who she is.
