“Yes.” She says gazing into my eyes as her eyes glisten in the sun.

“You’re beautiful do you know that?” I ask, leaning over and stealing a kiss before she could answer causing her shyness to make her blush again.

“Yes, Bette I know I’m beautiful.” She replies raising her chin to meet my own. With her palm she reaches up and cups my chin in her hand simultaneously caressing my cheek with her finger tips. “Do you know you’re beautiful too?” She asked me making me smile and blush too. She knew when to be sweet and she knew when to be sensitive to my needs. I wasn’t turned off like I was before when I found out she’d never been with a woman before, instead I was honored to take on the challenge head on and being her first was something I could look forward to and hold on to because I wasn’t planning on letting her go no matter what happens. I know now that I want her in my life and everyday without her makes me feel like I’m dying. I feel like there is something missing and I’m not whole again until she’s by my side and now she was and although I only have a couple of days with her, I’ll make sure to value every second even though I have a meeting I need to plan and laundry I need to do. Shit, I’ll just go shopping and make up for the laziness later and hope that with as much time spent with her this weekend it’ll be worth her wild and worth mine too.

California was different from New York. The beaches had the bluest water and the trees were tall and amazing. I couldn’t help gazing past every tree we passed it all seemed like a dream and I was only able to enjoy it for a couple of days. I was saddened by the departure and I had just arrived not too long ago and my heart was already sinking beneath me. My parents who are both Christians have the slightest idea that I’m gay and I don’t plan on them finding out anytime soon. I know I’m 25 and Bette’s 26 but to imagine telling them at a time like this could disappoint them and that I just can’t do. I moved out about two years ago and I’m currently a teacher at a local elementary school-third grade-and the students love me. I’m popular for sending students to the principal’s office and I’m popular for giving the most tests within one single semester. I take to heart everything I do and I perform my job to the best of my ability.
