This Time Around (3)
“You beat me to the punch line,” Tina teased. “I’ve been there before, but had no idea they change their menu every season. They’re great.”
“They are. Shall we?” Bette said in a proper accent and extended her hand towards the door.
“We shall,” Tina responded in a proper accent.
As they walked towards the elevator, Bette turned off the remainder of lights in the office. There was only the glow of red emergency lights down the hallways showing them the direction they were headed in. Once they reached the elevator and waited, Bette looked at Tina, “I meant to tell you earlier, you look very nice today.”
“Is that why you were checking me out?” Tina smiled arrogantly.
Bette let out a single laugh, “I guess we’ll never know.”
Right as she finished, the elevator doors opened and the light from within reminded both women of the factors at hand. For Tina, it was a number of things, ranging from the idea of being with a woman, to being with the woman her former coworker, and good friend, had been so in love with only a year prior. Tina was a very open-minded woman and supported all couples. She believed in loving a person for who they were, and not for whom society believed them to be. Tina had always been with men, and on several occasions had kissed women, but never because she was looking to share an intimate relationship with one. At this point in life, however, she was comfortable enough with her life and her sexuality to not be scared of the attraction she felt for Bette. Though new to her, she wanted to explore her feelings, but felt guilty that Bette was the once causing these feelings.
For Bette, it was the idea of being rejected. Sure, Tina was fun and good looking and there was chemistry, but Bette had been single for a little over a year and she didn’t want her first experience back into the dating world to be a let down, more so, a complete crash and burn. On top of that, Bette had always liked Tina and knew that this could lead to a great friendship. Would she be willing to give up a potential friendship for a confusing, potentially heart-breaking, quasi-romantic relationship with a woman that might eventually decide this was not her cup of tea?

Going round and round. I like your writing style and dialogue between the characters. Nicely done!
thanks for another wonderful chapter. If only humans would learn to communicate with each other using their words. Why is that so hard. Open mouth verbalize thoughts. They waste SO much time assuming. Dumass! Sheesh!
Open dialogue and verbal communications are easier said then done. How many times have we gone round and round and imagined things and felt things and NOT expressed them? I’m guilty. Onward to the next chapter. Maybe Bette will run into Tina during a movie shoot or maybe Tina will call. So many possibilities. Thanks for the chapter. Looking forward to the next one.
Nice chapter, thank you.
They need to communicate not talk in circles
Interesting… there’s a lot of hinting, but just as much if not more holding back. Thanks for the post. :)
Wait, so Bette got cold feet and then invited Peter to sit with them? Yeah, Bette blew it. Already communication sucks, so the relationship forecast doesn’t look good either. Not unless Bette gets her head out of her ass, and her act together. Awesome update ✊😚💗💗💗💗💗💗💗 thank you!
Oh would these two just talk to each other and tell whats on their minds. I guess we need a little angst before they find out how each other feels. Great update. Thanks.
