The Roommates – 2nd Dimension: Chapter 47
The young blonde woman felt the subtle tension add a hint of rigidity to the tall frame before her.
“What’s the third step, Tina?”, came the curious reply.
Tina swallowed again and felt a renegade tear slip past the security of her tightly clasped lids. She opened her lips to respond, her weakened voice struggling to remain level.
“I can’t tutor Courtney anymore”.
Bette pulled back and held on to her lover’s waist, her right hand cradling the smaller woman’s left cheek, her eyes dancing with confusion at the single trail of moisture that started from the left eye, traversed down smooth, tanned skin, and ended only when wiped away by a soft caramel thumb.
“Why not?”, asked Bette.
“Courtney’s mom saw us kiss last week. She doesn’t want me to tutor her daughter anymore. None of the parents want me to tutor their kids.”
Bette frowned at this, sorrow settling into her young heart. The tutoring program was important to Tina; she hated the sadness and disappointment in her girlfriend’s amber eyes. What she hated even more was her inability to right this wrong.
“You’re the best thing that ever happened to that program, T.”, she said, her own eyes shining with frustration.
“I know”, Tina replied, the renegade tear now joined by several new friends.
Bette felt her heart break at these salty reminders of the world’s bigotry and pulled her lover to her tightly.
“I’m so sorry”, she whispered.
Tina’s response was a soft moan that ushered in a fresh wave of bitter disappointment, soft sobs shaking her thin frame .
“Every time we try to be us.we get slapped in the face. Every time we try to exist in their world, they shove us back in the closet.”, said Bette, her arms wrapped protectively around the keeper of her heart.
Tina sniffled and held on tighter. “Us and them. I’m just glad there’s an ‘us’. Glad that she’s mine..”, she thought.

By the time Friday evening rolled around, Bette Porter was a ball of nervous energy. She and Damon Lawrence had detailed and rehearsed every facet of their faux relationship and as she pulled her car up to the valet attendant, she could still taste blood from chewing nervously on the inside of her jaw.

Poor Bette’s a nervous wreck. Glad that Damon can hold his own with Melvin, but I hope he does it in a way that impresses him instead of offends him. Soo glad that Tina shared her woes with Bette. I hope it made her feel at least a little bit better. Nice to see you, MTS!!
