Losing her shoes by the door from the kitchen, she wandered into the living room, picking up the soft dulcet tones of Nina Simone, flooding smoothly from the stereo, one of Bette’s favourites. She shut her eyes for a moment, picturing Bette as she’d stood on their third wedding anniversary, Angie at her feet on the sandy floor of the beachside house they’d rented for part of the summer, singing Nina Simone’s ‘The More I See You …’ in a rather off-key duet.
“Remind you of anything?” asked Bette quietly,
Her voice startled Tina, she turned and smiled, offering her lover a warm gaze of appreciation,
“I was just thinking about that summer we spent at the beach, you and Angie …”
Bette nodded,
They stepped closer together, meeting by the side of the table upon which stood an assortment of brightly coloured roses, the majority a deep red but others too which were pink and yellow and orange.
“Seventeen red ones,” said Bette, stepping up to explain, “for every year we’ve been together,” she said, pausing to allow Tina time to inhale their beautiful scent as she did a quick mental count, there were indeed seventeen red ones, “nine yellow,” Bette continued, “one for every year you helped me raise our beautiful daughter,”
Tina smiled, her eyes watering with Bette’s words, she stepped closer, taking Bette’s right hand in her own,
“Six orange ones,” said Bette, “for our friends, who you love and support and who I know love and support you,”
Tina grinned, stroking the petals of one orange rose carefully,
“Two pink ones,” she continued, “for my sisters, for the times you’ve helped me to know what’s the right thing to do,”
Tina nodded, noting in her head that there were just two roses left.
“A single white rose …” said Bette, her voice wavering slightly, “a reminder that whilst we’ve lost things, lost people, we still have each other and that’s what counts … and finally,” she added, pulling the prettiest pale pink and yellow rose with dark maroon edges from the centre of the bunch, “a single multicoloured rose that explains just how much I love you, that there’s not a single colour I could choose to depict how it feels when you make me smile, when you make me laugh and when a kiss from your lips lights up my whole world,”

WELCOME BACK and what a way to come back with an NC17. way to go, payback s on hold now though considering Angie’s little mishap and Bette’s meltdown about that.
So glad to see YOUR BACK!!! Please do not let Bette have a major meltdown and go off on Lottie. GreatNC-17 Thanks PPS
Cool, ur back and a great come back too. as usual a treat to read ur stories. just love it:)
glad your back, i’ve missed this story. wanted to say that even though they are all friends, have they ever thought or if anyone’s ever pointed out that maybe bette doesn’t want everyone speculating about her and tina’s sex life. they all know they do it alot, but they don’t always have to acknowledge that know.
Welcome back. Great update. So glad Kit set Bette and Helena straight so they could get the butts in gear. Can’t wait to see B&T reaction to Angie’s mishap.
I hope Bette reigns in that temper of hers, She was ok with Angie going to Shane’s shop. Skateboarding can be dangerous and when you do things that are dangerous there is the possibility that you may get hurt. A broken arm will heal, but sometimes broken relationships with family don’t.
I’m so glad you’re back. I loved this chapter. Can’t wait for the next one. I do know about working taking you away from writing. It sucks. Luved it!! PPS
So glad you took a break from the workday grind to return in such a funny, sexy, hot way. A brilliant post as always!! Loved the roses.
A big welcome back to you sofa! You have been missed! Poor Ang!
ah, i have to re-read, i read too fast…too eager…ok, that was fantastic, because it was realy well crafted as a story, but then i say that every time, because its true. you’re a born storyteller. is a boy hitting on lottie? why didn’t helena and alice get it on? lol…ok, ok, you don’t write to please only me, but the scene with tina and bette was…hehe…daaaamn good. ok, more comments tomorrow, when i’m giving a onger chance to read this long story in cut and pasted form. xoxo
Oh wow, I was so happy to read this chapter. As usually, I am always late to the party and probably last to comment, but hey I am here. Lottie is going to feel so bad about Angie’s accident but even if she was there nothing could have been done to prevent it from happening. I always love Bette and Tina adult alone time.
Damn B&T are hot, hope Angie is ok!
If you took your time getting back to us at least you came back with an epic. Gracious! So very much going on! Since that’s the case, I think I’ll refrain from revising my comments-at least for now. I’d really appreciate it if you would send Kit over to my place to offer sage advice and tell Lottie I’ll gladly run interference for her with the suits in exchange for a percentage.
Ruh roh. As others have said, I do hope Bette is relatively calm… but who knows, it might be Tina that goes off on one. Auntie Kit’s advice to Bette and Helena, as always, was spot on. Maybe her cooler head will prevail in the Saga of the Broken Arm. Such a good update, sofa, thanks.
