The Burden of Control – Chapter 18
Bette’s words were so soft and quiet that Kit had to strain to hear them. “Forget what, Baby girl?”
“I don’t know anymore, Kit.”
“Well Bette, you seemed fine that last time I saw you. What happened this weekend that you wanted to forget?”
***
Touch me…touch me here.
Bette felt the connection, the sudden rush of emotion that made her head swim and her hands shake. It reminded her of the very first time she and Tina had made love. Only this time it was Tina who clearly controlled the pace of this joining and Bette who was somewhat hesitant in her response.
Bette never imagined that she’d be here at Tina’s apartment, sitting on Tina’s bed helping Tina undo her shirt. It was all happening so fast. They had been in the kitchen just minutes before discussing the sonogram. The hug they shared was merely an innocent offering of comfort on Tina’s part. At least that’s what Bette had initially thought. She couldn’t stop the sigh from escaping her lips at the heartfelt contact. It felt so good to have Tina in her arms once again. How it felt to gently run her hands across her back and feel Tina do the same in response. And as they pulled away…Bette couldn’t help but stop and breathe in Tina’s scent. Whispered words were exchanged, but Bette had no recollection what they were because Tina had pulled back slightly and they were now exchanging the same tension filled air. Tina’s hands came up to frame her face and Bette stood frozen as Tina reached up and kissed her. They backed away for a second and Bette watched in awe as Tina brought her hands down Bette’s neck, sweeping across her shoulders to finally cover her breasts. Bette felt her breathing go ragged and her heart start to pound as she caught the look in Tina’s eye. Then they were kissing again and Bette stopped thinking and concentrated on feeling.
And Bette was overwhelmed with feeling joy when Tina removed her shirt and Bette felt the roundness of Tina’s stomach. She reached out and traced the gentle curve, amazed once again at the life growing inside.
A baby girl that she had seen that very afternoon at Dr. Wilson’s office.
Bette smiled and slowly leaned forward and kissed the skin above Tina’s navel. Hands once again touched her face and Bette looked up to see Tina watching her, a smile mirroring Bette’s own. And then Tina was reaching for her and Bette was once again lost in the sensuous haze that Tina’s kisses always brought.
It was all so surreal. Initially she had been somewhat shocked that Tina wanted to take the lead. But the moment Tina’s fingertips sensuously traced the contours of her back Bette felt a hot flush of desire erupt at the tender, knowing touch.
And when those fingertips dipped lower…
It felt as though Bette had once again come home.
She had been afraid that Tina’s body wouldn’t respond to her. That it would balk at her touch as it had the night of Provocations. So Bette took her time reconnecting and remembering, once again familiarizing herself with Tina’s body with a touch of gentle reverence.
Teasing.
Exploring.
Caressing.
Tasting.
Coaxing a response from Tina’s body using her hands and her lips.
And when Tina gave herself to Bette once again …
Well nothing on earth felt better than Tina did at that moment.
***
“I don’t understand…that’s great Baby girl,” Kit interrupted., clearly confused by Bette’s somewhat melancholy expression.
Bette turned away from the door and sat back down at the table. She reached over and grabbed the water bottle, bringing it to her suddenly dry mouth and taking a long sip. She closed her eyes, still caught up in the memories and the feelings they evoked. Then resolutely she opened them and looked up at Kit. “I thought so too. Until…”

I am sorry to hear about your loss. I do love this story and hope to see more of it. Maybe through your writings it will bring you some peace of mind. One of my favorite scenes with Bette and Tina is in the second season when they were together. When I read that part I smiled because it brought back that feeling of joy. Please continue with this story. It does bring joy in a time that we could all use some escapeism (not sure how to spell that word even if it exists).
