The waiter returns and asks if they are ready to order. Both ladies quickly look at the menu and place their orders.

“Tina, why do you think it would interfere with the gang?”

“I’ve seen it happen before. Two people get together from within the group and when things don’t work out it tears the group apart.”

“All right Tina. So let’s do as you suggest and maybe go on a date and see where it takes us. Away from the gang and we will keep it t ourselves until we have a better idea of what we are dealing with.”

The ladies relax and enjoy their meal. Tina opens her fortune cookie and smiles.

“Would you like to know my fortune Bette? It reads Romance is waiting for you!”

“That sounds promising. Let’s see what mine says, what you seek is in front of you! Hmm, interesting wouldn’t you say.”

“Very! I guess we should call it a day. I’ll call you this week and we can set something up, if that’s o.k.”

“That’s fine with me Tina.”

The ladies pay their bills and make their way to the parking lot, Tina gentle grasp Bette’s hand and they intertwine their fingers. As they are about to go their separate ways, Tina holds tight to Bette’s hand and stops, causing Bette to twirl around to face Tina.

“I have wanted to do this all through lunch.” As Tina says this, her free hand reaches up to Bette’s cheek and runs her thumb gently across Bette’s lips. Bringing Bette’s face forward, Tina leans into Bette and their lips met. Tina’s lips pull on Bette’s lower lip, than upper lip as she slowly runs her tongue across looking for entry. Bette’s opens her mouth to the kiss. She cannot believe how Tina’s kisses make her weak. Once they are having a hard time breathing, they break the kiss. Tina leans her forehead on Bette’s and says,

“I can’t believe how much kissing you makes me weak at the knees.”

Grinning, looking into Tina’s eye’s Bette responds, “I think we might be in trouble Kennard.”

“I think you might be right, good night Bette! Till next we met.”

“Good night Tina.”

They part ways, both trying to remember the last time a kiss, made them feel this way. Neither of them can recall it ever happening before and both are wearing a smile and faraway look, thinking of that kiss.
