“Um…Bette, I’m sorry but Shane is going to be sleeping in the bathtub tonight.”

    “What?!” said Bette, “I thought she got her own place.

    “No, I’m sorry, I forgot to tell you that she had been sleeping at a girlfriends’ but I think she cheated on her. I know, I know, but she doesn’t make any noise when she comes in and she cleans the bathroom once a month!”

    “What else?”

    “What?”

    “There has to be more, you have that look on your face.”

    Tina took a deep long breath and said as fast as she could, “Well,IguessIhavetotellyouthatShanesaidthatshewillbehereforaweek(Breath)andthatAliceissleepingonthefloorofourbedroomtomorrownightbutDanaisflyingintotownsoIguesssheisgoingtobesleepinginourbed (breath) I mean with us.”

    “WHAT!!!!!!!!!! Shane is going to be sleeping in the bathroom, Alice will be sleeping on our floor and DANA WILL BE SLEEPING WITH US IN OUR BED THIS WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!” Bette jumped up and managed to knock some books from the over head shelf that fell and hit the bunny on the floor who dashed into the other room and knocked over the lamp in the bathroom.

    Tina just sat back and folded her arms, “I’m sorry Miss Bette Porter, but we can’t very well turn out our friends and they need a place to stay and Dana has no where else to sleep.”
    “We should sleep with Alice, she doesn’t kick me at night like Dana does.”
    “I am NOT sleeping in the same bed as your ex-girlfriend!”

    “We didn’t even date that…I mean…gawd…she’s more your friend than she is mine!”

    Tina glared at Bette.

    Bette said, “Okay, okay, you win, just admit to me that Alice is more your friend than mine and that if I was out of town she would be sleeping in our bed…I mean…you know…as friends.”

    Tina looked like she was going to stamp her foot because her mouth got tight, “Okay, fine. Alice is more my friend than she is yours and okay, she would be sleeping in the bed, I mean Shane snores, but maybe we wouldn’t be sleeping just ‘AS FRIENDS.’” Tina squealed as Bette dove for her and they both fell over in the kitchen and got tangled on the rug and over the books next to the window. Bette fell on top of Tina and cradled her face in her hands. She looked down at her and into her blue eyes. Tina stopped laughing and smiled up at Bette. She reached over and gently massaged her back and lifted up her shirt. Bette looked down and kissed her lips softly. Tina kissed her back and moaned as Bette caressed her lips with her tounge.

    “I lub you, my crunchy lezzie,” said Bette.

    “and I lub you, ms. thang,” replied Tina.

    Bette clasped her hands in Tina’s above her head and looked down. She said slowly and deeply, “I love you so much.” Tina smiled and kissed her as hard as she could.
