“Only a BIT geeky – I take exception to that “ Bette smiled

Tina kissed her “ Okay – a lot geeky – you are who you seem to be VERY geeky – really kind, shy and lovely . I love that you are comfortable in your skin – you don’t have to pretend to be anyone or anything else. I trust you Bette “

Bette kissed Tina again and this time pushed her back so the blonde was lying on the sofa with Bette lying over her kissing her. Tina was holding onto Bette’s waist and trying to resist the temptation to lift the school shirt up and touch Bette’s bare skin. She tugged the shirt up and the tips of her fingers grazed Bette’s waist. After a few minutes Bette ended the kiss

“That felt good “ Bette said softly

“Then why did you stop “ Tina asked looking at Bette

“Because once we start really ravishing one another do you think the fact that we are lying on your parents sofa might not be a little bit of a passion killer”
“Did you have to spoil things by saying that ?”
Bette nodded “ How about we take a look at what we have to do so far and we can work out how we are going to tackle stuff. There is no reason for us to work longer or harder than we have to. And there is no reason for our parents to know that we are so well organised that we can actually spare time for some serious fooling around”

Tina sat up and touched Bette’s face “THAT is forward planning that I could get into”

“The longer we are together – the more we are going to want to just fool around and kiss. You are right – we do have to show them that we can be a couple AND be good students”

Tina picked up her drink and lent back

“What are your plans for the holidays – do you go on vacation ?”
“Dad doesn’t believe in vacations – he takes a couple of weeks off and just relaxes. He says holidays do not relax him”
“So you don’t go away ?”
“My mom and I usually go away. That always used to happen when I was younger. But in the last few years she has been promoted twice – she’s a senior librarian now – that means she gets paid better and she has responsibilities”
