Tina responded to Bette’s bedroom eyes by laying directly on top of her and diving onto her caramel colored neck.  She kissed just below the jawline and worked her way up to her ear, nipping and sucking at the earlobe.  Thinking back to their conversation in the elevator, Tina whispers “Welcome home,” in a sensual breathe into Bette’s ear.  Bette knows exactly what she is referring to and grips Tina’s head with both hands, guiding her into a passionate kiss, full of longing and rememberance.  The explore each other’s mouths, lips and tongues for the next several minutes, caressing each other softly and with urgency, getting reacquainted with one another in their own bed.

BANG! Screeeeech – SPLASH!

Bette and Tina are startled with a jolt from the loud noise they just heard outside the window.  Tina jolts upright, still straddling Bette. “What the hell was that?”

“It sounds like someone fell in the pool… do you think it might have woke Angie?”

“I’ll go check on her – you investigate.”  With a quick kiss on the lips, Tina hops off the bed and puts her shirt back on.  She grabs Bette’s pants and tosses them over to her.  And just before she exits the room, she turns at the door and says, “I love you.”

Bette quickly puts her pants back on and goes out to the pool.  She finds Jenny splashing about in the pool and a bewildered Shane kneeling at the pool’s edge, reaching out to Jenny in the water.

“Jenny are you ok?” cries Shane, obvious concern on her face.  “I didn’t mean to –“ but she was interrupted by an insistent Bette.

“What the hell is going on here, Shane?  Jenny, why are you in my pool – and at this hour?”  Bette looks back and forth between Shane and Jenny, not knowing whether to be annoyed or concerned.

Shane looks up at Bette, guilt written all over her face.  “Bette I am so sorry Jenny and I got high earlier because that poser-fuck Adele hijacked Jenny’s job as director and I quit to show her support then Jenny got the bright idea to blow off some steam in the pool I tried to stop her but she tripped backwards over one of the lawn chairs and fell in making a lot of noise and I am so so sorry…”
