Discovering Aphrodite
Bette stood beside Tina, her eyes met Tina’s and she swallowed the knowing constriction in her throat. It had been a long time since a woman had rendered her speechless by doing nothing but standing next to her.
“You look…, amazing…” Bette said in a voice that she hardly recognised as her own.
Tina smiled, knowing she was being visually interrogated from the inside out. She had watched how Bette’s eyes covered every inch of her, but she hadn’t felt the least bit uncomfortable, on the contrary, she had felt the warmth spread across her body just as Bette’s eyes had.
“Thank you…, you look pretty good yourself…” Tina said as she looked at the freshly washed hair, shining and curling on Bette’s shoulders. The white collarless shirt casually unbuttoned at the chest to reveal the darkening skin beneath, hanging loosely over the white linen trousers.
“Shall we?” Bette said as she nodded towards the pathway leading to the streets of Kato Pafos.
The walk towards the harbour restaurants was slow and leisurely, glancing at varying menu’s on the way, but ultimately their destination was the harbour, overlooking the Medieval Fort.
“It’s meant to be a nice place to watch the sunset.” Bette said as they wandered through the throngs of locals and visitors.
“Who told you that…?” Tina asked with a smile, getting to know that Bette seemed a hive of information.
Bette laughed, “my guidebook…”
They stopped at a shop, the outside racks laden with souvenirs of all kinds, postcards, globes, chess sets.
“How can these shops sell such a diverse range of goods is beyond me…” Bette said as she glanced at the tacky as well as the cultural all on the same shelf.
“I know, some of it you could probably buy in any city in Europe…”
“I think I like local better…, maybe I’ll buy my souvenirs at a less touristy place…”
They found a restaurant that suited both of their taste buds, the display of freshly caught fish catching their attention as they both silently agreed with a nod.
As they waited for their dinner to be served Bette glanced across the bay, watching how the sun was slowly descending on what she could only describe as her first perfect full day on holiday in Cyprus.

No, Tina she hasn’t, but my guess is, she may start now with you. Go for it Bette. Tina don’t let her go. AWESOME update. Please post very soon.
Ok, job well done..you’ve broken my silence..you did not seriously just leave us hanging?!? There will be an update shortly, right??? PPVS!!! Anxiously awaiting B’s answer for T ;)
JO!!!!! Awesome story with historical background scenery! Way to go!
I’ve had a little holiday romance, it’s awesome Bette. Go for it!
Bette, you go girlfriend. Post again.
The past is past. What is important now is the holiday romance in the present. Tell me more.
I think the answer will be no, but the smart money says she will! nice story. pps
Well, Bette may not have ever had a holiday romance but I have a very strong feeling that it is about to happen with Ms. Tina Kennard. I love this story Jo and I hope when the vacation is over they will be going back to the same town, LA. lol
Love it !!! I just hope that when the holiday is over they will still be together. Thanks JO PPVS
That was great and sweet, bet don’t have a holiday romance but now let she have it with Ms. Tina Kennard lol. Please post more, thanks!
I’m so in love with this story. If every vacation goes this way, I will take one now. Thanks for this!
Regardless of Bette’s answer, Tina’s definitely interested. And who knows, it might turn out to be more than just a holiday romance. Thanks for the chapter. :)
Lovely story, really enjoying it.
I have a feeling Bette’s luck on Holiday Romance is going to be better than mine! Thanks, Jo.
And that a line that can bring “first,last and forever”.
You are supremely talented. Awesome story. History lesson along w/the romance.
The answer would be no, but I don’t think this romance is gonna stop just because the holiday is over, I think it will go way beyond that!
Haha…I don’t think that Tina will have to twist Bette’s arm too hard for that holiday romance…the question is…will it stay just a holiday romance? Wonderful update Jo and we’re going to need the next one ASAP.
I am liking the build up to the romance.My guess to the question is no for either one of them.We need an update Jo post haste.
*Sigh* Oh that was sooo lovely..Im thinking Bette is in for the “Holiday Romance” of a lifetime..Loving this sweet gentle story…and its just flowing beautifully :)
I am so loving this story. Great great great update. Go for it Bette :) Thank you :)
