Tina laughed. Its fine. Im sure well enjoy everything, Tina nosed through the bag before gesturing at Nya to join her in the kitchen. Wine?

No, not right now. Im still enjoying my Pepsi high.

Okay, Tina led Nya to the living room and without warning pressed her lips in Nyas making her tense for a second. Nya relaxed and slowly pecked Tinas lips before opening her mouth for the full kiss.

Oh my! Nya panted after kiss. Didnt see that coming. She touched her lips still feeling the pressure.

I told you I could show you better than I could tell you, Tina whispered. Nya leaned in for another kiss and they held each other in a warm embrace. And even better than I imagined, Tina confessed; Nya nodded. Can we start over? I think Im ready for that now, Tinas shy admittance made her feel ten feet tall.

Of course. Yes, Im so happy to hear you say that.

Before another word could be said, Tina and Nya began a marathon of kisses each one setting a new precedence on their new found intimacy. Tina and Nya were so into each other that Tina forgot she still had the oven on where the zucchini au gratin was cooking and the smell of the burned food disturbed their tender moment.

Is that you or me? Nya playfully questioned.

*****! Tina jumped off the couch. Its the cheese. *****! I need to take the dish out, Tina reached for the potholders and Nya raced to assist. Phew! Tina placed the dish down, That could have been ugly, she laughed.

Come here precious, Nya pulled her close, I think it was just jealous cause youre hotter than it is, Nyas teasing compliment made Tina blush. Look at you, Nya kissed Tinas nose, youre blushing. Tina put her head down. Uh, uh, I told you about that, Nya cautioned. Always, always accept your compliments eye to eye even if it makes you blush. Youre a beautiful person Tina. Beautiful inside and out so let it shine, they began to kiss again.

” Knock-knock

Saved by the infamous bell, well knock! Nya laughed as Tina eased away to open the door.

You look like the cat who ate the canary, Alice grinned as she looked back and forth between the two. Nya turned away slightly and Tina closed the door acting innocently. Ooh! Alice smirked. You two were doing it!

Alice! Tina protested, we were not

Alice turned to Nya, you guys were doing something, she continued and watched Tina and Nyas body language.

Sheesh Al, nothing gets by you does it, Tina conceded.

Alice fell out laughing, busted! I didnt really know, I was just playing cause you were giggling when you opened the door, Alice was now on the flow in stitches.

Ooh, you little sneak, Tina play kicked her.

Whats so funny? Shane asked as she let herself in.

Tina helped Alice up from the floor. Your good buddy here is such a prankster, Tina answered.

Yeah, and you wouldnt guess what they were doing? Alice was still laughing.

Shane looked at Tina and Nya and tried to figure it out and then she too started laughing. No way? You couldnt have; you didnt have that much timedid you? Shanes curiosity now peaked.

No, no, no! Tina yelled, embarrassed by the teasing. No, there was no time for that.

Then time for what? Shane joined Alices ribbing.

We kissed for crying out loud! Nya jumped it, if this is how you react to that, Id hate to see how youll react when we actually do it, Nya unintentionally blurted out. All eyes on Nya! Oops! She blushed. That didnt come out right, she tried to clean up.

Never mind it or them, Tina walked away, welcome to the bunch! Tina poured drinks and they all raised their glasses. To old friends, new friends, and a renewed me.
