Bette pulled the beautiful blonde to her and cooed to her telling Tina that it would be alright.

“Babe, it’s ok.  It will smooth out in a few days.  You are upset it was a relationship that meant something to you.  You have every right to be upset and confused.  Sometimes we meet someone and have so much going on in common and you keep it going for the sake of the friendship.  Did you and Eric have good chemistry?”  Bette stroked Tina’s hair and could tell she was calming down a bit, her breathing was more even.  Tina looked up and felt almost normal and had felt better after saying what she had bottled up for awhile.

“We had ok chemistry.  We just got along really well.  It seemed like we should date, well I mean that is what I had felt.  I always felt that I am supposed to do this thing with men..find one get on and marry and kids.  Now I am just not sure.  I have battled with my crushes in high school.  I always wanted a close girl friend as like my friend.  Who knows if it was something like oh, they should be more than that.  I didn’t look at it closely enough.  I was so involved in sports and school I didn’t know what to think.”  Tina stared into the night and the stars in her back yard.  She was so happy she knabbed this place before others did.  She had decided on the pool and trampoline to ease her frustrations from other things from work or her games and left enough space for growth of the natural habitat around the property and ability to see starts at night.

“This place is great Tina.  How did you find it?  Bette thought she had seen this property when she had moved to San Diego as well, but wasn’t sure it looked different from what she had remembered. 

“I found it when the forclosures were going on and grabbed it.  I didn’t want too much change in the natural growth of the land and wanted to see stars.  I have worked my ass off in film industry and well this is my reward.  Ugh, which reminds me I have to read some scripts tonight.  Sucks!”  Tina didn’t want Bette to leave, but she had to go into the office tomorrow for some lame meeting about a new movie starting in a few weeks and was beat.  Her face was starting to ache and so was her whole body.
