They teased each other for a while longer before heading back into their hotel and lounging around – entirely grateful for the air conditioning. As much as they were enjoying the heat, it could be too much after spending half of the day in it.

“Did you call Angelica yet?” Bette asked as she threw Tina a little bottle of rum from the mini-fridge.

“What are you doing?” she laughed, shaking her head. “Yes. I called her. I was getting worried, but she’s having such a great time. She’s actually getting a lot of work done over there. She’s volunteering to teach guitar now.” She took a deep breath in, and let it out. “Vicky’s such a saint to take care of her all this time.”

“Yeah, it’s the toughest job in the world with a kid like Angelica, who’s probably taking care of your sister – not the other way around,” Bette laughed, splashing cold water on her face in the bathroom, before walking back toward the bed. “What’re you doing? Crack that thing open.”

Tina laughed again when Bette crawled over on the bed, grinning at her.

“Come on, I’ve gotta get you all liquored up!”

“Shhh!” Tina giggled, her ankles tugged so that she laid flat on her back under Bette, “Are you crazy?!”

Bette kissed her for long enough to distract Tina, quietly whispering into her ear. “Isn’t that what honeymoons are for? … Trying crazy things? … Having sex all the time?”

Tina had to moan, excited that Bette had pulled down her halter without her even realizing it. “Y-yes … Touch me.”

“You don’t need a drink to play with me, do you baby?” Bette teased, pinching the easily excitable nipples. Sending a powerful jolt through her lover.

“Mmm … don’t be too awful,” Tina moaned, “I don’t know how long I can wait …”

“Since this morning? I’m that good, huh?”

“Yes.”

“And we have all this time to ourselves … I hardly know what to do with it …”

Tina squirmed impatiently, tugging her own bikini bottoms off – the ones Bette had been staring at every time Tina got up or walked away or even played in the sand. It was difficult to keep teasing, but Bette was determined to drive her wife mad with desire.
