    Author Notes:

    The girls discover an oasis on the beach — and Bette hears the song dedication.

    Bette had argued the case from a purely “aesthetic” point of view, likening Tina in jeans to a Manet painting, versus everyone else in jeans to a Thomas Kincade print.  There was simply no comparison.  Tina found that analogy hysterical but ultimately unpersuasive.

    ‘I’m wearing them, Bette.  Get over it.  I’ll let you grope me though…if you’re sweet,’ she had teased, pinching one of her lover’s nipples before dashing away. 

    Bette found her in the middle of their bed with her rear end in the air just to tease her, giggling into the covers.  She had tackled and tickled her mercilessly.

     

    As she stood admiring the vision before her, her breath hitched with relief quickly followed by the intense attraction she always felt upon viewing her.  But there was something else –pride?  She was so beautiful, so singular, she observed.  Her wife.

    No one in the world could provoke in her such an avalanche of visceral responses – her mouth suddenly dried as a deep ache formed in her throat and spread south through her body with lightning speed.  Her heart pounded in her chest, quickening with each breath.  How long had they been together?  And yet she still exhibited the symptoms of new love.  She was in love with Tina, perhaps more so than ever.

    As her lover listened to the song Bette watched her lips bow into a small smile that she recognized as the one her wife had long reserved for thoughts of her, and she stood  dumbfounded, shocked that a stranger had elicited that smile, and that’s when her mind caught up to the words the woman had just sung…

    “She’s a fool and don’t I know it
    But a fool can have her charms
    I’m in love and don’t I show it
    Like a babe in arms…?”

    They were thoughts of her that made Tina smile.  Those words described her as surely as if Tina had said them herself.  She saw and knew it as she continued to watch closely gauging her partner’s reaction to the song.

    The heat suddenly rose in her cheeks as the muscles of her chest constricted.  Tina’s face glowed but she knew it was the flush of alcohol that set it alight.  Her body language did not bespeak flirtation or desire for the woman singing to her.

    2. I can’t wait. Seriously. It’s gonna be good the next one right LOL. Please let Bette make up for it. Big time. LOL. I have a feeling neither one of them is gonna be able to walk in the morning. PPS. I’m begging you.

    3. So happy Bette took the high road in the bar and didn’t cause a scene. Relief was chief among the emotions she felt and I’m glad that over rode everything else. Tina is cute when she’s had a few too many and really in need of her wife. Loved the chapter. Thanks for posting.

    5. How great to have another chapter, Nell – thank you! And such a sweet one. Last time a number of comments said how you could visualise this scene as if it was a movie, which you can, but this chapter demonstrates the superiority of the written word. The repetition of the dedication and the description of their friends fearful anticipation of Bette’s reaction is much funnier. I also loved Bette’s accurate reading of Tina’s reaction to the song. And, as everyone has said, drunk Tina is cute! I trust Bette is taking her somewhere unsandy and you will “TBC” soon!!

    6. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Your words make it seems as if you are there watching the moments unfold and you can almost feel them. B E A U T I F U L. I think I’m in love with your writing, no, I know I am in love with your writing. I wish updates were more often but each one is worth the wait.

    7. Melania couldn’t have chosen better songs to cheer up the charming Ms T. (As an aside: I admire Natalie Merchant’s work with 10,000 Maniacs and the distinct, profound songs they’ve created.) I’m glad Bette proved my guess wrong that she’s go ballistic again if she sees the singer flirting with her wife. It’s refreshing to see a character do the exact opposite of what she/he is wont to do or is expected to do most of the time. I love the “avalanche of visceral responses” the sight of Tina provoked in Bette and the myriad of emotions that Tina saw in Bette’s eyes. When Bette was staring at Tina and feeling the stirrings of falling in love all over again, the moment their eyes met and they finally embraced were simply beautiful. I bet the make-up scene will be lava hot, nothing less than scorching. Thanks a bunch for this superb post, Nell. I hope your Muse will never cease to inspire you to write and share your writing with us. Cheers and hugs. =)

    12. Wow, it’s been 2 months since your last post, Nell. Are you okay? Hope you’re just busy and preoccupied. I just stopped by to tell you I miss your posts and that I love this story to pieces. Have a lovely day and a lovely week, Nell! Cheers! =)

    13. Hey Everybody!I’m here and I WILL be back! I appreciate your comments and PM’s so much… I’ve just been very, very busy with life and work. I do miss you all and am hoping to get some chapters finished in the first week of June, if not before. I hope you are well and I look forward to being back soon!Regards,~Nell

    18. Omg… So cheesy…!! :-D “The woman you love loves you in spite of your stupidity…” glad to read your story again!! :-) and cute drunk Tina!! :-D hahah… Can picture LH on that scene easily ;-)

    19. Each one of your words brings a picture in my head….it’s like the movies! You write very well and your story is very unusual! Thanks. PPS if your schedule allows it! :0)

    20. Thanks for the update. I love this story. The way you described what they were thinking as they saw each other in the bar was beautiful. Their personalities complement each other perfectly. And drunk Tina is just adorable. :)
