“Miah I swear if you hit your sister one more time…” Tina admonished and watched as her son sunk back into his seat away from his sister. Tina turned back around and faced the road as Bette drove the rest of the way to the Kennard family house in Jackson. “I don’t know what’s wrong with him.”

“He’s just excited to be free from this car. I don’t think they’re use to us flying commercially, you’ve spoiled them with the Peabody jet.”

“Well they’d better get use to it, because as soon as I cut back from work we’ll no longer have the jet at my disposal.”

Bette continued to drive and the closer they got to the house the more Tina would run her hand up and down her thigh intensely she wouldn’t admit it but she was anxious as well. Since making up their minds to adopt they’d had numerous conversations and they’d come to the conclusion that they’d wait until Tina was free from work and able to commit herself completely to the growth of their family. Bette on the other hand was ready to at least start the process but the middle ground with Tina was a compromise to wait until they were both ready. On top of that Tina hadn’t been to a family reunion in almost three years and she knew she was going to get it from all sides. She’d always just send the kids and Bette in her place so she could work and maybe have some free time for them when they got back but she had to stay close in case of an emergency.

“Babe if you grab me any higher we won’t leave the room to see your folks.” Bette saw how Tina looked at her confused then she saw the way Bette motioned to her leg. Tina looked down and saw how her hand was nearly squeezing her wife’s hip, she’d gone way beyond running her hand along her thigh.

“Sorry babe.” Tina said retracting her hand quickly and wrapping her hands in a tight ball in her lap.

Bette reached over and brought her hand back to her leg, “I didn’t say I didn’t like it.” she smiled at Tina who only blushed as she turned her attention back and stared out the window.
