The Settlement – 19
Softly I continued, “When I think of you I’m happy. I don’t think you can even imagine how much.â€
“I’m happy.†I answered her question unequivocally reiterating, “You make me happy.â€
Her face was flush with undisguised pleasure and emotion. I loved that too. How she reacted to me. All I needed to do was take notice and I could see it in the way she held herself. The way her eyes spoke to me, how her face and mouth moved in tune with her inner processing.
We shared another kiss, our tongues stroked lusciously with yearning. When we parted I inched toward Bette to rest my head on her shoulder.
Sighing inwardly I let reality intrude on our tryst. Unfortunately our time was restricted by the curse of commitments related to my job. The consequence of being a paid servant so to speak.
Halfheartedly I succumbed to reality, “Bette, I have to go home.â€
“Don’t go.†Rotating our joined hands, she started rhythmically caressing my palm with hers while her index finger lightly stroked the creases on the inside of my left wrist.
“Stay,†she supplicated.
Groaning I replied, “I can’t Baby.â€
Pleading for understanding, “Like I told you earlier, there’s some paperwork at home I need to finish.â€
Bette mutedly stated, “At home.â€
“Yes, at home. All over the place too so you’re not invited until I clean up.†I joked.
“You can bring it here,†she said expectantly.
I laughed softly at her suggested resolution and rather unique response to the temporary retraction of the open invitation to each other’s homes. “Bette it’ll take an hour just for the round trip! I wish I could spend the entire evening with you too but I really have to get this done.â€
Alluding to her own obsessive behavior and attention to work I requested understanding, “You know how it is.â€
“It’s almost over.†My manner more conciliatory I clarified, “We’ll have time to make up for yesterday, today and tomorrow after I present in two days.â€
Lifting my legs to rest on her lap, my right arm snaked around her waist. Bette moved forward slightly allowing me room to maneuver behind her. Giving her a temperate squeeze, I rested my head on her chest and finished. “Besides it’s not practical, there’s a lot of it.â€

Hate to see a grown person beg. Go far it Tina. You can see her ever morning and night ,curl up in her arms and spoon with her in bed. Yes yes yes. thanks
I liked the smooth way Bette went about asking Tina to move in with her, but what got me the most was this –
“I’ll continue to see you in my dreams but I want to know you’re next to me.” She added, “Everyday.”
“Please don’t go T.” Her gaze was penetratingly sincere. “I think you’re home already.”
Okay, either I missed something between chapters or Tina is having a flashback to when Bette asked her to move in at the beginning of their relationship. Patiently waiting for your next post!!!
I love this incranation of B&T in which B is so much into Tina and unabashedly shows her adoration. Many other authors have portrayed Tina as the one solicitous of Bette, or the one that desires more of Bette’s affections or the the one that is more demonstrative of her own affections towards Bette, waiting on Bette, waiting for Bette. However, in this story Bette openly adores Tina and shows it with words and deeds. This is a more powerfully romantic depiction of their love story. I think Jennifer Beals understood the character in a similar way when she claimed in an interview that Bette is the most romantic character in TLW. Thank you for giving us a very sweet, very passionate Bette (without deBetteing her an iota) and a very practical but equally in love Tina. I love this story. More flashbacks like this please.
Ditto fortlw – Very sweet
Thank You! Just what I envisioned as a Bette and Tina beginning. Girl you know how to write a real story without all the flash and fake. Again Thank You! Looking forward to more as always!
Say yes T, say yes. Love the bantering and sarcasim between the two. Its so refreshing, and just the way they love each other you just have to smile.

I continue to be enamored with your writing. Thank you.
