“Get undress.”  Ordered Tina and Ro bulked for a moment and then did as she was told.  She pulled on the light jersey shirt and lay on the edge of the bed.  She realized that Tina was just playing the mother hen.  She laughed to herself at this because she thought that someday, god willing, Tina would be a wonderful mother.

            “Ma I’m all changed up.”  Rosita said with a funny southern accent her voice that of a 4 or 5 year old with a bad cold.  Tina turned around and pulled the covers back, and tucked Rosita into the full sized bed.  Tina was smiling from ear to ear as she did this.  Tina avoided Rosita’s eyes for some reason.  Those eyes gave her long moments of thought lately.  Her lips did too Tina swallowed back her desire.  Reign in your hormones Kennard.

            “I’ll be on the couch if you need me little Miss Rosita Navarro.”  Tina said placing a kiss on Ro’s forehead and Ro sat up grabbing her hand as she walked away.  Holding her in her place and Tina turned, finally meeting Ro’s gaze. 

            Live.  Max‘s voice whispering into her mind’s ear.

            Rosita just implored Tina with her ebony eyes and Tina bit her lip as Ro motioned to the empty side of the bed with her head. 

            Tina simply smiled and she un buttoned her jeans letting them fall to her ankles as she went to the other side of the bed and climb in with Rosita.  Taking the pillow that Ro offered and settling down into the soft covers.

            It was now Saturday and Rosita was in the kitchen making a massive breakfast Tina could hear her singing softly with the music.  She smiled at the sound of her voice, oh god she was falling in love with her.  How could she do this, Ro was straight, she thought. 

            Tina hadn’t left Rosita’s house since Tuesday night.  She’d gone to the Center and then would come back here at Rosita’s request.  They’d just hung out together and Tina was sure she was somehow falling in love with the young mechanic.  The straight mechanic, who Tina gathered had lost her first and only love Max in some sort of motorcycle accident.
