Alice gave a hesitant Bette a slight push out onto the patio. Helena had already had the same conversation with Tina and they looked at one another from across the pool already knowing what the other knew.

Tina handed Angie over to Helena and Alice as she started exiting the pool. No one knew Helena and Alice’s plan but Tina felt as if everyone knew she was getting out of the pool to have sex with Bette. The sunny day hid her full body blush as she reached for her towel. Bette looked at her and decided she would go into the house first. She waited in the bedroom, pacing nervously. She wondered if she would even be able to enjoy herself with the conversation she had just had with Alice, fresh in her mind.

All doubts were erased when a still wet Tina entered the room.

“Hi.”

“Hey.”

“Did Alice…um talk to you?”

“Yeah, she did. You talked to Helena?”

“Mmmhmm. Why do I feel like a teenager doing something wrong.”

Bette laughed. “Yeah, me too. I guess cause at least two people out there know what we’re doing.”

Tina approached her dropping her towel on the floor making Bette’s mouth drop.

“T, did I tell you I like your bikini?”

“No, you told me not to wear it in public, remember?

“Well, it’s too sexy for others to see. Did you see those slayers ogling you? I’m gonna kick their asses when everyone goes home.”

“I love when you get jealous. But I think I’m the one that should be jealous. God Bette, you’re so beautiful.” She looked her lover’s body over and suddenly snapped back to reality. “And whose idea was it to assign that idiot Nadia, here.”

Bette had no time to answer as Tina’s hands began exploring the familiar yet always exciting territory that was the brunette’s body. Bette stood still and allowed her to touch wherever she wanted.  And touch she did. Tina’s hands were cold from the pool and they felt good on her hot skin.

“Do you like when I touch you like this?”

“Mmhmm, is it me or is it getting hot in here?”

“Oh, it’s definitely you. You can melt an igloo baby, but I can make it a little cooler if you want.” Tina aimed her gaze at the thermostat lowering the temperature of the central air conditioning.
