"Tinahh…." She whispered.

Tina slipped her hand inside and–

"BETTE!" Alice shouted from behind them, announcing herself.

Tina hand immediately went back to her side.

Bette coughed.

"Oh you’re here. You’re bloody here!" She faked a smile.

She couldn’t be any more annoyed yet thankful at the same time. She felt uncomfortable being around Kelly now that she knew Tina and her had a past even if it was just dinner.

The women had shared a meal of salad and pasta. They exchanged small talk and soon go to know one another. All the women felt a deep connection with one another.

"Tina?" Bette yawned.

They were now settled in Bette’s bed.

"Mmmm" Tina was lying on her stomach, her eyes slightly opened.

The sheets had barely covered her waist. Bette’s bed was very comfortable compared to hers at Sabrina’s. The past week staying at Bette’s she couldn’t help but to wonder how she’d ever get sleep in her bed when she left Bette’s.

"I’m sorry; I acted like a child today. I didn’t mean to push Kelly into the pool." Bette confessed. Tina suppressed her laughter. It was amusing because she had never witnessed a jealous Bette.

Bette had gotten upset when she witnessed Tina and Kelly exchanging a pinky promise like gesture. She wanted to rip Kelly’s pinky off, right there and then, but instead swiftly pushed her into the pool by "accident."

Tina moved up the bed and Bette opened the covers encouraging Tina to snuggle up against her.

Bette continued.

"Oh my god, she was so irritating. Did you hear her? Look at your body… Are you still a runner?" Bette rolled her eyes.

"Bette?" Tina brought her hand over to Bette’s mouth covering it. "Please. Stop it. We had dinner. That’s it. I’ve never slept with the lady. ..There is nothing going on. I love you. Only you."

She brought her hand down to Bette’s chest and kissed just above her right breast.

"You Bette Porter are the hottest woman alive. Kelly is nothing compared to you. She’s just a friendly face, you know? Stop stressing. Please?"

Bette sighed and nodded.

Tina felt Bette needed more reassurance.
