“Yeah – I could too. This just feels nice”

“Do you think we will ever sick of this ?”
“Well if we do hate sleeping together it’s the time to call it a day “

Tina shook her head “I can never see it happening “
“Never say never but you are right – this is all so new and exciting. I just want to sleep with you all the time. I know that we cannot – I know that us sleeping together is going to be a rare treat. One that is not going to get stale as far as I am concerned “

Tina kissed Bette

“I love you “

Bette took Tina’s hand and kissed it “I love you too – you know I love you “

Tina rolled over and looked at Bette as she stroked her face

“I don’t know what I expected – maybe a amalgamation of every lesbian book I have read but this – this reality is different..”

“In a good way ?”

“Of course in a good way”

“That’s okay then – I can’t believe how quickly it has all happened. I was so lonely and just going to school and coming home and studying and watching TV and going to bed. That was all it was for months upon months. I guess I didn’t even have the belief that it would ever improve. Nobody have ever got me “ Bette said

Tina kissed Bette on the lips “Well I not only get you but I appreciate you. I see how smart you are – how mature and how thoughtful. I don’t think there is a dyke at school who wouldn’t crawl over broken glass to get a smile from you “

Bette shook her head “Well first of all – there are only 3 lesbians who know I am gay and when we go back you and I will be out. They don’t get the chance to get close to me because no one else saw me or looked at me twice. “

“And what’s the second thing ?”

Bette shrugged “I don’t know – I am hungry. Have you got anything I can wear until we can get back home and get me some clothes “
“Are we not staying in bed ?”
