“SURPRISE!!!”

The whole gang was there holding a big banner that said Welcome Home Tina, We Love You!

Alice rushed up to me throwing her arms around me almost knocking me over.

“I missed you TK!!!”

“I missed you too Alice” I laughed.

I had told the gang about my condition the day before I went to the clinic. They had all been very supportive and some days they had come with Bette to visit me there.

Kit made her way over to me “I missed you baby girl, how are you feeling?” she asked as she hugged me tight.

“I’m good Kit” I smiled at her “I’ve missed you too”

Shane and Dana enveloped me in a group hug and I couldn’t help a few tears escaping.

“You ok TK?” Alice asked as she saw my tears.

“Yeah, I’m just so happy to have you guys” I smiled through my tears “I don’t know what I would have done without you”

Bette pulled me in for a hug kissing my brow.

We spent the whole afternoon at the Planet, talking and laughing.

We entered our house and just as I had closed the door behind me Bette turned me around pinning me against it.

“Welcome home baby” she grinned as she leaned forward to kiss me.

I brought my arms around her neck keeping her close as the kiss grew more intense. She moaned as my tongue explored her mouth. We broke apart both of us breathing hard looking into each other’s eyes.

Bette took a few steps back extending her hand towards me. I smiled at her taking a hold of her hand as she led me in to our bedroom.

We undressed each other slowly before embracing, our naked bodies pressing close together.

Bette turned me around bringing her hands around me holding me close. She kissed her way up from my shoulder to my ear taking my earlobe between her teeth nibbling on it. She then moved her mouth up breathing heavy into my ear which sent shivers down my spine.

“Marry me” she breathed into my ear.

I turned around looking into her eyes “What?”

She lowered me onto the bed straddling me and pinning my arms down before leaning over looking deep into my eyes.

Her lips were just inches away as she repeated the words.

“Marry me”

I looked up at her with tears in my eyes.

“Yes” I whispered as tears started to fall.

“Yes?” Bette’s eyes were shiny with unshed tears.

“Yes” I smiled through my tears.

Bette leaned down and pressed her lips against mine, her tongue brushed over my lips asking for permission and I opened my mouth. My tongue met Bette’s and we both moaned. She released my arms and I brought my hands around her neck holding her close to me. We broke the kiss both of us breathing hard looking into each other’s eyes.

“I have something for you” she breathed onto my lips.

“What?” I smiled.

She leaned over opening the draw to the nightstand and pulled something out.

She sat back up looking down at me lovingly, I now saw that she was holding a small box in her hand.

She opened the box and I gasped as I looked at the beautiful diamond ring.

Tears were making their way down Bette’s cheeks as she took the ring from the box and gently placed it on my finger. I looked up at her and our eyes met silently communicating the love between us.

She leaned down and softly kissed my lips.

“We’re getting married” Bette smiled through her tears.

“We’re getting married” I smiled back at her gently stroking her cheek.

We made love that night until the sun went up then Bette held me close to her as we drifted off to sleep. I had never been happier than in that moment with my fiancées arms around me and the bright future ahead of us.

The End.
