    Lifeline — Chapter 15

    They sat at the
    table with the sprawling feast laid out before them and Bette raised her glass
    in a toast.

    “Wow –these guys
    know how to eat,” Tina grinned, blinking at the spread before her as she picked
    up her glass.

    “To adventure and …”
    Bette smiled, searching for the end of the sentence which Tina supplied before
    she could find the words.

    “Trust,” the blonde
    smiled, a bit more sober than before, and attempted a wink.

    Bette hesitated for
    just the fraction of a second and clinked her glass against Tina’s.

    “Trust,” she
    reiterated.

    Tina nodded, her
    mouth full of cheese and cracker.

    Bette leaned over
    and kissed her on the lips.

    “I love you, baby.”

    “I know, B.”

    They ate until Bette
    thought Tina couldn’t possibly have room for another bite and then she insisted
    on clearing away the remnants and cleaning up while Tina found the sound system
    and put on some music.  The food seemed
    to have sobered her some, Bette noticed glancing over her shoulder as she dried
    the plates and watched her lover concentrate on choosing the music.

    “Find something?”

    “I think so,” Tina
    drawled, “if I can find the damn ‘ON’ button here.”  She stood in her bare feet on tiptoes, biting
    her lip in concentration.

    Bette felt a lump
    rise in her throat and knew she’d escaped disaster once again.  Like a cat on its eighth life, she felt the
    weight of her misdeed like a mantle on her shoulders, and came to grips with
    its implications.  She had to stop
    fucking up.

    ‘I can’t lose this
    woman, who means everything in the world to me,’ she chided herself.

    She slid in quietly
    behind Tina and took hold of her right index finger which had been drumming the
    top of the receiver, then guided it to a large round button, and pushed firmly.

    “I believe this is
    what you’re looking for,” she purred into the nape of Tina’s neck, breathing in
    the soft scent of her hair and skin; a smell of fresh salt water, lemons and
    lavender mingled together deliciously.   Her eyes closed slowly as the beat began on
    the song Tina had chosen, and Bette’s hands settled on her lover’s hips,
    swaying to the slow rhythm of the bass. 
    With a gentle tug she spun her around, and as they came face-to-face
    Tina smiled her tipsy, crooked smile.  Bette swallowed hard, her eyes shining.  She thought about the enigmatic woman in her
    arms and leaned in to kiss her as she had a thousand times before, but felt a
    difference about the moment.  Her
    thoughts were muddled as her tongue touched her wife’s and she felt her stomach
    muscles contract with the contact.  Even
    after so many years of kissing her, Bette always felt a spark at their contact
    and was surprised at her reaction.  Tina
    moaned into the kiss.  She felt it
    too.  Her hips pressed into the
    brunette’s as their tongues tangled, the blond taking the lead, sucking Bette’s
    tongue deep into her mouth as they pressed closer and closer together.  Tina stood gently on her lover’s feet, her
    warm, soft toes tickling her.  Bette
    smiled around the kiss.

    1. Yay, Nell is back! Glad you finally had the time to write and post again. I’ve missed this sweet, lovely story. It’s safe to say that Bette and Tina are going to rock that bus for a few more rounds. Thanks a bunch, Nell! Cheers! =)

    2. That’s how you make a re-entry!! Welcome back to writing gr8d8 and a big kudos to the peeps who kept pm’ing you. That’s love right there. Beautiful post, thank you!!!

    3. AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I knew you would be back and you did not disappoint. Thank you for the sweet dedication and I am in love too…with your story and your writing ability. Thanks for continuing I will always be here.

    4. gr8d8, Please don’t keep us waiting any longer you must continue with this story, it’s much, much too good to leave for too long. I will stay faithful in my nudging but I will be VERY persistent as you well know.

    5. any chance to get an update? i went back to read the earlier chapters again. it was about a year ago that a couple of earlier chapters were written, during the valentine’s day period. a year! and this latest chapter was posted sometime in January 2012! Please keep them coming.

    6. Okay first off congratulations on finding love, I wish you both the best. Second off, I love this story! Granted I had to reread to properly enjoy this update but it was totally worth it. Finally third off, you left it there! Now I have to patiently wait for an update lol

    7. To say that I am thrilled you are back is the understatement of the year…. But hey.. You had a wonderful excuse! Can I tell you that I was thinking about your story as recently as two days ago and hey presto you pop back on the front page… I did not even have to go back and read because I remembered perfectly the premise and knew just where you had left us… It was like finding an old friend again and continuing a perfect conversation. Welcome baxk and thank you. Kx

    8. Its seems almost impossible that I have been a fairly consistent patrin of this site for the better part of 6 to 7 years and somehow missed this story throughout that time. However, as fate would have it I logged in tonight and found myself intrigued by the promises of a new story. So I went back to the start and have read the the story in its entirety throughout tonight and I can honestly say it is perhaps one of the most eloquently written stories I have ever read…anywhere. You have a way of drawing out a scene into a plethora of emotions and descriptions that relate to the reality of life and situations that many could never begin to put into words as beautifully as you do. I hope I’m not too forward in saying so but your writing calls to mind thoughts of “the well of loneliness” by radclyffe hall. You just really allow readers to see into the heart of these charcters that you right. I felt as though I was learning profound things about the characters of bette and tina as if these were actually the intentions of their creator. I think ilene would be jealous of your insight because you quite possibly write them with more truth than she ever eeven considered. anyway, the story really is lovely and I have enjoyed the rollercoaster of emotions as I have laughed aloud at lines such as “you fucking vixen!” Or almost cried at the surrealism of bette’s situation at first getting the news and trying to compare it to the morning as tina left. I’m glad you came back to add another chapter and I do desperately hope that time allows you to continue more consistently because I am simply addicted. Thank you.
