Bette gently nudged Tina and laughed.

Bette: Hey now, I didn’t have it delivered I picked it up myself.

Tina laughed. They both sat up. Bette stood up from the bed and retrieved their robes from the bathroom. After putting them on; Bette and Tina walked to the kitchen.

Bette: I’ll heat it up for us.

Bette took their dinners and placed them in the microwave. Tina was smelling the bouquet of flowers Bette had gotten her. Bette returned to the dinning room table with their plates. She placed them on the table, and then she pulled Tina’s chair out for her.

Tina: Thank you. 

Tina sat down.

Bette: Would you like something to drink; wine?

Tina: I can get—

Bette interrupted Tina.

Bette: No, this night is all about you. I’ll get them.

Bette went back into the kitchen.

Next door at Shane’s…

Shane was lying on the couch watching a movie she and Alice put in. Angelica had fallen asleep on top of Shane. Alice was peaking out the window; looking across at Bette and Tina’s house.

Alice: Damn, I can see anything…I wonder what their doing.

Shane: Whatever it is Al, it’s none of our business.

Alice turned at looked at Shane.

Alice: Aren’t you at all curious?

Shane: Nope.

Alice: Yeah right.

Alice continued to try and sneak a peak; Shane rolled her eyes and focused on what was going on in the movie.

Alice: Hey; do you have any binoculars?

Shane: Alice!

At Bette and Tina’s…

Bette returned to the table with two glasses of wine. She joined Tina at the table; the two of them started eating their meals.  

Tina: This is great babe…the food, the setting, everything.

Bette smiled.

Bette: I’m glad you like it. I know you have been going through a really tough time; with Henry; I just—

Tina: Let’s not talk about it. I just want to focus…on us.

Tina looked up at Bette and smiled.

Bette: Okay.

Bette and Tina finished their dinner. Bette removed their plates from the table. Tina stood up from her chair and walked over to Bette.  She came up behind her and wrapped her arms around Bette’s wait and whispered into her ear.

Tina: You know; it’s still early, and I am no where near tired.

Bette smirked; she turned around to face Tina.

Bette: Well….what would you like to do?

Tina took Bette’s hand and pulled her along with her. Bette followed as Tina led them back into their bedroom…

TBC…
