Bette! Wait!

Bette spun around with curious eyes to see Tina almost falling over the banister.

Tina, whats wrong?

Your purse, you forgot your purse. Tina skipped down the stairs and handed Bette her bag, hesitant to let go.

Well, thanks.

Sure. I didnt want you to think you lost it.

Guess Ill be going then. Bette smiled weakly.

No, Bette, wait, please. Tina pulled her over to the stairs out of the way of two neighbors stumbling home through the door.

What is it, Tina?

I just wanted to tell you that… that you didnt have to leave tonight, you know? Tinas voice was quiet, a whispering confession.

I know. I chose to leave not because of you but because I thought it would be best.

I just dont want you to have to hold back with me anymore. Ill tell you if Im uncomfortable.

Oh, Tina, I dont doubt that. I dont want to rush with you. Things have been so good and its been great getting to know you without charging into the bedroom. With all the changes youre going through, I want this to be the best time ever. And it will be, when the time is right.

Ok, I can deal with that. Im looking forward to the right moment, though. Tina grinned and nudged Bette. Is it ok if I kiss you, though?

Not if I kiss you first.

I already called it.

Tina slid her arms around Bettes waist and pulled her closer for one last kiss of the night.

Bette got inside her car and drove away, wondering how she was able to keep her wits about her without jumping Tina right then and there in the hallway. Even in her big pajamas Tina was the most attractive thing Bette had ever seen. She took a deep breath. She knew she was falling in love but as she looked back over the last month and a half, she couldnt figure out how it all had happened. It had been slow, a progression and a mixture of curiosity, attraction and a freshness.

Tina was as original as they came, though inexperienced, she was one of a kind and Bette treasured their paths crossing. She knew it wasnt luck but fate. Tina was changing her life and Bette now understood the importance of slowing down and taking pleasure in each moment. Tina exuded passion and conviction, striving for honesty and liveliness. Bette craved knowing Tina on every level possible.

Driving in no particular direction, Bette enjoyed the ride and focused on sorting her scattered thoughts.


Inside her apartment, Tina changed into her pajamas and threw herself onto her bed, closing her eyes.

She looked up and gasped. Bette? What are you doing here? I thought you left.

Bette stood in the doorway, arms folded across her chest smiling and started to slowly walk towards Tina. When she reached the bed, she crawled onto the comforter, moving towards Tina.

Bette… Tina didnt finish her thought and her heartbeat started choking her in her throat. Her chest was rising higher and faster with each breath as she became more aroused.

Making her way over Tina, Bette stopped above her, face to face, legs on either side of her stomach. She bent over and kissed Tina with such force that Tina couldnt move. She could only kiss back with all her strength. Bette sucked on her ear, blowing slightly as she whispered, you didnt think Id leave without giving you what you want, did you?

Slowly and torturously Bette unbuttoned Tinas night shirt, pausing after each button to watch Tinas desire and anxiety build. When they were all undone, she pushed aside the shirt, leaving Tinas breast just inches away from Bettes long fingers. Tina could barely contain her lust and her body ached all over for contact, skin on skin.

Are you ready Tina?

She nodded as Bette leaned over Tinas shaped stomach towards an erect nipple. Tina could feel Bettes hot breath on her skin and she closed her eyes just as Bette was putting her breast into her waiting mouth.

Tina quickly opened her eyes to an empty room, no Bette and shirt still buttoned and in place.

What the ***** was that? Not even in my dreams can I get some action with Bette. She sighed and climbed under the covers, rolling onto her side to fall asleep again.
