Bette turned her attention to her drink. She stirred the amber liquid and took a long drink. She turned her attention back to the dance floor and watched her ex-girlfriend grind the chesty redhead. Fucking Jodi. Why did I have to run into her here?

Tina glanced from the blonde to the brunette whose back was now turned to her. “I’ll be right back,” she told Alice, Shane and Dana and on impulse walked toward the brunette beauty.  She took a deep breath and slowly released it through her nose. “Dance with me,” she whispered softly in Bette’s ear.

Bette looked glanced up at the large mirror behind the bar when she left a warm breath on her neck. The breath sent a shiver down her back and a tingling throughout her body. The woman’s reflection was that of the woman who has dancing with Dana earlier. She caught the blonde’s eye in the mirror and held it before turning to face her. She placed her hand in the hand being offered to her.

Tina took Bette’s hand in hers. She reached over to the bar and grabbed Bette’s purse and led her confidently over to the dance floor. She handed Alice, who stood with her mouth agape, Bette’s purse and led the tall brunette to the middle of the dance floor.

Alice, Dana, Shane and the other couples parted like to was the parting of the Red Sea as Tina escorted Bette to the middle of dance floor.

One of the couples bumped into the fiery blonde and the ginger woman she was grinding against earlier. Jodi stood dumbfounded seeing Bette with the blonde, whom she had never seen before. She had heard the rumors about Bette playing the field.

The song that was playing slowly had changed to a slow song. The intro to “Somebody” by Depeche Mode sounded through the speakers.

Tina and Bette’s heartbeats synced with the heartbeat in the intro. Tina placed her right hand Bette’s left shoulder and pulled Bette to her. Bette placed both of her hands on the blonde’s waist. She felt herself getting pulled closer to the warm body.
