Bette and Tina’s House
Tina had put Angie down for a nap and went to find Bette so they could talk. Shit this whole thing would make a good script for a movie. She walked through the house and found Bette sitting by the pool, her shoulders slumped, her head down and she was clenching and unclenching her fists.
Tina (sitting down next to her and wrapping her arm around her shoulder; at first Bette resisted but then she sighed and leaned into the embrace): What a mess?
Bette (softly): No thanks to me.
Tina (closing her eyes in thought): What’s that supposed to mean?
Bette (taking Tina’s free hand in her own and kissing it): It just means I should have been honest with her and maybe none of this wouldn’t have happened.
Tina (standing up): You are so not going there. You make her sound like she’s the victim here. She’s not…
Bette (pointing out the obvious): Tina (but Tina wasn’t going to hear one word in Jodi’s defense.)
Tina (holding up her hand): No. I am not going to sit here and listen to you berate yourself over this. I might agree with you that maybe, maybe you should have been up front with her. But you and I both agreed we needed to take the time to figure out what we both wanted. Then (taking a deep breath) when she does find out, does she talk about it? No. She fucking goes off on some tangent, demeans you in front of everyone, then humiliates you in front of your peers then attacks you not once, not twice but three fucking times Bette. You’re the victim, not her. She needs to get it through her head that she can’t always get what she wants.
Bette (looking at Tina then at the ground; she was right): Baby…
Tina (pacing back and forth): Don’t Bette. Because right now I’m barely keeping myself from finding her and (growling). You don’t know how I just wanted to put my fist down her throat for doing what she did to you. I am so angry right now that if I so much as see her she’s well…
Bette (standing up and wrapping her arms around Tina’s waist): None of that. Please, just let it go (caressing Tina’s face.)
Tina (kissing Bette’s palm): I just can’t help but be pissed. (Growling) fuck…
Bette (smiling): You are so cute when you do that…
Tina (looking at her): I can’t believe it.
Bette (innocently): What…
Tina (grabbing Bette by the front of her shirt and pushing her onto the lounge chair): You frustrate me to no end sometimes (kissing her tenderly.)
Bette (wrapping her arms around her; groaning as Tina’s weight settled on her body): Sometimes (tilting her head back as Tina’s lips and teeth assaulted her neck.)
Tina (moving and straddling Bette’s lap): Okay most of the time (opening Bette’s shirt and pushing it off her shoulders. Removing her own shirt) it makes me hot…
Bette (knowing that they needed to finish talking about this): Baby we need to oh fuck (as Tina’s teeth seized her nipple through the lacy fabric of her bra.)
Tina (leaning towards Bette’s ear): I suggest you shut up and let me have my way…
Bette (grabbing Tina’s wrists): And what if I want my way?
Tina (closing her eyes as Bette’s free hand moved between her legs): Baby…
Bette (her voice low and seductive): What if I told you, that you being in that director mode, that take charge, take no bullshit attitude turned me on, made me hot and all I wanted to do was to fuck you.
Tina (groaning): Bette…
Bette (undoing her bra): Well (trailing her fingers across Tina’s collar bone down to her breast.)
Tina (shaking her head and grabbing Bette’s wrist): Baby stop (watching as eyes, darkened with passion looked up and captured hers. For a moment time stood still, all that existed was the two of them.)
Bette (settling, trying to calm her racing heart; the pounding blood in her veins): Tina…
Tina (knowing instinctively what Bette needed; her lover needed protection; needed to know she was loved): Let me. (Leaning down and licking Bette’s neck with one long hot swipe of her tongue) let me in.
Bette (struggling with her emotions; she struggled with the idea of surrendering herself to anyone, but in her heart,; knew it was her true love; her soul mate): Tina (fighting tears.)
Tina (settling her wight on top of Bette slowly): I’m here it’s me (leaning down and kissing Bette slowly, languid pulls of lips gently caressing and teasing; gentle swipes of their tongue. Their breasts pressing together; a delicious ache that cause both of them to moan and arch toward each other.)
Bette (surging towards Tina; the pleasure she was feeling now was bordering on painful): Baby (groaning as Tina’s breasts brushed against hers and she reached out and wrapped her arms around Tina; cupping her ass and pulling her closer.) Fuck…
Tina (sucking on Bette’s pulse point): Relax I’ve got you (sliding her hand inside Bette’s pants; insinuating them between the silk of her undergarment and the silk of her skin; feeling the silken moisture and heat dampen and engulf her fingers.)
Bette (arching her head back as Tina kissed and sucked her neck; her senses on overdrive; her body surrendering to the sensations her lover was evoking; her soul reaching for its other half and for a brief moment that she looked into Tina’s eyes, she saw her future; saw everything that she had been searching for and more): Tina (moaning, pleading.)
Tina (keeping her eyes locked with Bette; she wanted her to know that she would always be safe with her): I love you (thrusting inside her; speeding up her motions and tightening her grip all at the same time.)
Bette (spreading her legs as far as they would go; feeling as though Tina is everywhere at the same time; panting; needing Tina to touch her clit): Baby…
Tina (kissing her softly then pulling away): I love you (brushing her thumb against Bette’s clit; feeling her muscles tighten; watching as her eyes closed; her head arched; her body straining; pressing her thumb harder against Bette’s pulsing need and pressing her head against Bette’s shoulder): I love you…
Bette (every nerve ending on fire; an array of colors exploded behind her eyes and her body imploded): Tina…
Tina (tightening her grip with her free hand): I love you (listening to Bette’s cries; feeling her body shake; feeling their bodies covered with sweat,sliding against each other) I’m here…
Bette crying and shaking): I (panting…)
Tina (kissing her passion bruised lips): Shh I know (wrapping her arms around her partner tightly.) I know baby.
Bette (crying into Tina’s shoulder): I love you.
Tina (kissing the top of Bette’s head): I love you. I’ve missed you.
Bette (snuggling further into Tina’s embrace): Missed you too.
They lay like that wrapped around each other on the lounge completely unaware of the storm that was brewing.
