“Of course, I understand.” Bette smiled.

“Thanks.”

The conversation turned to lighter subject and soon the women were laughing and joking around. They had a blast.

Later, Tina paid and they walked outside. They couldn’t walk hand in hand, even though it was dark. They didn’t want to take any risk. Tina’s protection was also following them on a distance.

“Well, you paid for dinner, can I buy us dessert?” Bette asked with a smile. “Maybe ice cream?”

“You want us to eat ice cream in these clothes?” Tina laughed pointing at her dress. Bette chuckled.

“Why not? Can’t you eat with a dress?”

“I’ll look like I’m some diva.” Tina told Bette.

“Okay, then come to my house. I still have some ice cream in the fridge.” Bette said.

“Sure.” Tina answered.

They stepped into the limo they just reached and Tina asked the driver to drive them to Bette’s house. They talked and joked while driving. Tina had never felt better; this was one fun date. She hoped they could do it again. Bette also felt good; she couldn’t believe this was happening. She was dating a woman that she felt at ease with and that she liked. Before, she always found the woman she dated hot or smart but never had she found those two things in one person. Now, she found it in Tina.

While they were talking, Bette took Tina’s hand and Tina stopped mid-sentence because she smiled a face-splitting smile. Bette leaned in and captured Tina’s lips. Tina let out a little moan, they both opened their mouth and their tongues found each other, moved together, around each other, stroking, feeling, enjoying… When they noticed the car had stopped, they pulled apart, gave each other another little peck on the lips before walking inside. Bette’s house was of course not as big as Tina’s villa but it was nice. Tina sat in the couch while Bette took some ice cream and put them on plates before giving it to Tina. They began eating and the conversation went to friends.

“So, tell me, who’s your best friend?” Bette asked.

“I’ve got like 4 good friends: Tim Haspel, Angus Partridge, Steffi Moose and Lee-Anne Jones. You?”

“I’ve got two best friends: Shane McCutcheon and Alice Pieszecki. I think I know most of your friends, well, I have heard of them. Isn’t Tim the swim coach of the national swimming team, Angus the nanny of some celebrity kids and Lee-Anne the designer of Dun’tKizAndTel- clothes?”
