Bette looked at Tina, listening to each word escaping from her mouth, holding her hand and caressing it with her finger.

“And I can’t help myself. First, it’s Angelica and then my new job and just everything.” Tina paused for a second. “I know it’s been hard for you and you had to go through a lot of difficulties, too and on top of all that, it’s just me not willing to talk to you, but I don’t have control over my life anymore At least, that’s how I feel. I don’t feel steady.”

Their eyes locked and they were silent for a minute or two, just looking at each other and digesting the words that Tina had just said.

“Baby, I’m so glad you told me how you feel. Only a couple of hours ago I felt like shit, I felt like I was the most abandoned person on this planet, but now after hearing you say everything that is on your mind, only now I realized what a fool I was. I never truly understand that it’s so hard for you. I never got to see how hard it was for you to have this new kind of life”

They both looked up and smiled at each other, though there was nothing happy about the fact that life was hard for both of them. But they smiled because they finally began talking, they were finally able to detect the core of their problems and they spent the entire evening discussing their feelings about the current situation and both stopped feeling the world on their shoulders.

As they both lay in bed that night, facing each other and looking each other in the eye, they were smiling from the closeness and togetherness that filled them. It felt like they took a huge, giant step back a step back to communication and understanding they used to have and now regained that turned out to be a progress they appeared to be dreading so much, they got back to sensing each other, to what united them in the first place.

Tina was caressing Bette’s face with her fingers and Bette’s hand lay on Tina’s shoulder, they didn’t even know how they started kissing, it was something they couldn’t control and wouldn’t want to do even if there were being forced to. Their kiss deepened and both shivered from the sensations in their bodies and heads. Bette’s hands were now on Tina’s neck, gently touching her skin and making Tina kiss her even harder.

They undressed each other, gasping as they saw each other’s bodies and inhaled each other’s feminine smell. Bette kissed Tina again and then kissed her breasts, sending Tina to oblivion before her own words flashed in her mind, “what more could I want?” Bette planted tiny kisses on her stomach, on her thighs before she lowered her mouth on her clit and her tongue was making love to it until she sensed that Tina needed her inside and then she entered her and a minute later Tina felt a strong and pleasant orgasm that made her body shudder and her mind blackout for some time.
