I Fall Behind pt.24
Bette mouthed the words to Tina while slowly swaying
side to side. Her eyes twinkled with mirth and Tina had to laugh.
“You give me love, love, love, crazy love… you
give me love, love, love, love, crazy love. And I need her in the
daytime. And I need her in the night…”
Tina couldn’t believe how tightly Bette could seize
her heart, just by lipsynching badly to the old Aaron Neville song.
Tina blindly reached out to hold Bette’s hand after her eyes were again
focused on the road. Bette captured the wandering limb and slowly
brought it to her lips.
“You give me love, love, love, love, crazy love…”
Each word was interspersed with a quick peck on the back of Tina’s hand.
“And I need you in the daytime. And I need you in
the night…” Bette sang softly but Tina heard and noticed how she’d
changed the lyrics. Tina couldn’t help tense up. Is this what drew her
so strongly to Bette, that Bette needed her?
She was spared of answering herself when she caught
sight of the CAC building coming up to her left. She carefully turned
to stop in front of the lobby. Bette was looking at her expectantly,
still pressing her hand against soft lips.
“What?” Tina grinned at Bette’s patient expression.
“What?” Bette echoed, grinning back.
“What are you waiting for Ms. Porter?” Tina lay her head sideways against the headrest.
“Mmm. Your eyes look clouded. What are you thinking?” Bette mimicked Tina’s position on her own headrest.
“Nothing, Bette. We’re here. You don’t want to be late.”
“Will I see you again tonight?”
“If you want to.”
“Can you pick me up here at 5? I asked Alice to bring my car back to my apartment.”
“No problem.”
“I…”
“Bette, you can tell me later. Okay?”
Bette looked a little hurt so Tina lay a palm against her cheek. “Tell me later, okay? I’ll be here at 5.”
“‘k.”
“Give me a kiss.”
“‘k.” Bette leaned forward and gave Tina a perfunctory kiss.
“Aw *****…” Tina muttered before she grabbed Bette
behind the neck and hauled her close for a deep steamy kiss. I love
you. I really do love you, she cried wordlessly against Bette’s pliant
lips.
Some minutes later, James watched Bette weave on unsteady feet past his desk and into her office.
