Story written on October 19, 2012 by justkeepswimming.
She returned with a lovely Pinot Noir they’d been saving for a special occasion. Bette couldn’t think of a better time to crack a nicer than average bottle of wine. She proceeded to uncork it like a pro, and offered Tina the first taste.
Tina swirled the rich liquid in her generously proportioned glass, inhaled the bouquet of the wine and finally let it bathe her palate with flavor.
"It’s delicious, Bette thanks for choosing it," Tina said with a wink.
Bette contemplated the possibility that Tina was perhaps already a little giddy from the wine they enjoyed with dinner, but there was no reason not to help her loosen up a bit more as she prepared to share her news with her parents.
She filled Anne’s wine glass, and then Tom’s before topping up Tina’s and finally her own. She set the bottle down and descended into the armchair that matched the one in which Tina sat.
"That meal was quite simply amazing," Anne said after she took her first taste of the wine. She nodded approvingly as she swallowed and motioned to Tom that he should try his. He brought the glass to his lips obediently.
"And when it comes to dining out, you’re pretty difficult to please," Tina replied with a smile.
"You get to know what you want when you’ve worked in the restaurant industry for any length of time," Anne said simply. "I know what the standards were in restaurants where I was the executive chef, and I expect nothing less when I’m out for a fine dining experience."
"I’m so glad you enjoyed it," Bette said. She had thought long and hard on where to take them, and Tina had insisted that price was not to be a consideration, given what was to transpire that evening. She didn’t go so far as to say she wanted her parents good and liquored, but that was certainly the implication.
"Mom, Dad, there’s something I actually want to talk to you about," Tina started quietly. She was at a loss of where the conversation should go next.
"What’s that pumpkin?" Tom Kennard asked with a genuine smile on his face.

Swimmie, that was a wonderful ending to a great story.Thanks for sharing and looking forward to another wonderful story from you. Have a great weekend.
Just wonderful. More, please
Lovely. Simply lovely I have no ha either words.
Absolutely loved the story!! Thank you so much!!
Oh yeah 😉👍
Okay that a refreshing change. Not all coming out stories are rife with sturm und drang. To many parents credit, more of than not they already “know” before their kid tells them (mine sure did). BTW, loved your A-list of “you know you’re a lesbian when…” but you left out PE and the gym teacher Swimmie ;0) Any way, thanks for sharing this well written series! Looking forward to whatever else you have in store :0)
That was funny and awesome, love it. Happy for them, thanks for sharing this story with us!
That was great!
Why did they have to know before I did?” Tina asked – lol – thanks again
What a wonderful turnabout coming out story! In all of fanficdom, I’ve never seen more savvy parents. They truly know and love their daughter for who she is. Tina was blessed with perfect parents!(and a very good author) Thank you!
What’s better than freedom to be oneself? What a nice story. Thanks.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all parents were so accepting of their children’s sexual orientation. Great story JKS! I’m looking forward, as always, to more of your talented tales. Thanks!
At some point I just couldn’t read fast enough! “..blessed to be accepted..” A blessing indeed!
