Bette thought that was the most adorable sight ever and she reached out slender fingers and lifted Tina’s chin "No, it’s not your fault. I really enjoyed talking to you, would you do me the honor of meeting me here tonight? I want to take you out to dinner." 

Tina blushed as she stared directly into Bette’s eyes "How about you pick me up at my apartment at 7 instead? I won’t exactly be here all day you know?" 

I say, "Can you believe it?"
As we’re lyin’ on the couch
This moment, I can see it
Yes, yes, I can see it now

"Ob god, that really was the way our first meeting went huh? It seemed less dorky then." Bette giggled, pulling Tina further into her as they were cuddling on the couch. 

Tina laughed "Yeah, pretty hard to take seriously huh? But that wasn’t really our first meeting technically. Our first meeting was me in pigtails and overalls wailing at my mom not to leave me with the monster babysitter." 

Bette chuckled and rubbed her hand lovingly over the hand of her girlfriend of 3 months "Oh yeah, now that was dorky! Still think I’m a monster?" 

Tina looked up at Bette, scrunched up her nose and finally said "Nah, you redeemed yourself. Remember our first date that same night of our ‘first’ meeting?" 

Do you remember, we were sittin’ there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time

"Yeah, of course I remember. I brought you to that nameless park just a little off Central Park. The one I found while jogging one day. We sat there just enjoying the view of the night skyline and when you shivered I finally found the courage to put my arm around you and pull you in like I had been wanting to do all night." 

"Just so you know, I wasn’t really cold that night" Tina laughed cheekily. 

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

"Why you… Hmmph, well all the same, that small action on your part gave me the courage to put my arm around you. Me, the Bette Porter who thought she had sworn off love forever because of my bad experiences made the first move. And it paid off because you’re mine Tina Kennard, mine."
