“Bette!” Tina calls out to me…I turn around and found myself stuck to the hood of my car. She was more beautiful than the day we met. I didn’t know that the sun could make a person look so damn good.

“Tina!” I shout making my way over to her as I flee the wiper and hear it smack hard against the windshield. For a second I thought I cracked the glass but I wouldn’t know because I was more amazed to embrace my beauty than my brand new 2008 Range Rover. “I’m coming!” I shout again picking up the pace because every step seemed like eternity and my heart raced within me as though I was fighting for my last breath before going lifeless for the last time.

“Bette!” Tina shouts again this time running and soon we were together and hugging and kissing one another. A second later I felt her stiffen under my embrace and that is when it hit me that she was a little timid toward kissing in public, being that she had accepted the fact that she was indeed gay and in desperate need of my affection but at the same time I had to respect her and let her go for the moment because we have plenty of time to get close inside but over time I’m sure she’ll come around I just hope it’s sooner than the one year promise she gave me to fully come out the closet. I have patience and I believe that if our love is worth it and if we really care for each other that maybe she’ll see my commitment to her and know that I’m not just all talk but action too. “I’m sorry.” I say letting her go and gazing into her eyes. Her face was flushed and her cheeks were rosy.

“Don’t apologize, Bette it was going to happen either way or another. I just have to get used to how this feels.”

“I know but I would hate to make you uncomfortable T you have to learn to be comfortable around me and that starts with me making you feel comfortable with me in public so it’ll be so natural and so that you won’t freeze whenever I hug you, kiss you, or hold your hand.” She blushed and turned away before I could tell her how beautiful she is. “Look at me.” I say drawing her chin into my hand.
