“Really?” Dakota’s eyes were wide with excitement. “Do you want to go swimming?”
Bette laughed. “Not right now. I didn’t bring my suit.”
“You don’t need one, right Aunt Alice?” Dakota looked at Alice.
“I think we’ve had enough swimming for one night.” Alice said. “Dana and I are going for a pajama walk. Have you ever been on one?”
The little girl shook her head.
“Come inside with us and we’ll take you on one.”
“What about mommy and Bette?”
“They’re too old for that.” Dana looked at Tina and winked.
“Yeah, let’s leave the old farts behind.” Alice said as she took Dakota’s hand.
They walked inside leaving Bette and Tina alone. Neither spoke for a few minutes. Tina watched the moon’s reflection on the pool. Bette stole sideways glanced at Tina whenever she got the chance.
“Is this ok? That I stopped by?” Bette quietly asked.
Tina looked at her. “Of course it is. It’s expected, Bette.”
“I didn’t want to bother you when you just got here yesterday.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. Did it look like you were intruding tonight? Dakota’s been talking about seeing you ever since I told her you were going to be living in the same city as us.” Tina said.
“I just didn’t want to crowd you, that’s all.”
Tina sighed. “Maybe that wouldn’t be so bad.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, it wouldn’t be so bad if you could feel comfortable here. Make your presence known. Crowd us all you want.”
“Really?” Bette’s voice was barely above a whisper.
“I’ve missed you, Bette. I really have.”
“I can’t believe you’re actually sitting here in front of me. I thought I’d never see the day that we were in the same city again.”
“Or the same house.” Tina looked around, letting the house speak to her.
“I know what you mean. If these walls could talk.”
Tina smiled and looked at Bette who was also smiling. “I’m glad you stopped by.”
“How is this going to be? How do we do this?”
“This…. is what we make of it. Soft and slow.”
“I can do that.” Bette said.
“We can do that.” Tina corrected her.
Bette moved closer to Tina so their chairs were against each other. Bette rested her hand on top of Tina’s on the table. She moved her face closer to Tina’s.
“It starts like this.” Bette whispered. She gently pressed her lips against Tina’s and kissed her like a graceful and passionate dance. Tina pulled away for a moment and stared into Bette’s eyes, the silhouette of the house behind her, shaping her in a familiar light.
“Soft and slow.” Tina repeated her words in a whisper as she took Bette into her arms.

I am happy to see a new chapter.Please don’t stop.We need to see them reconcile.
Fareast…hey! I love your writing! You have a real flair for realistic dialogue and for being “right on” with each character’s depiction. If you do end this story (I hope you don’t) I am going to beg you, if that is what it takes, to continue to write another…and another….and….
Get it? Thanks for this chapter and I’m so sorry that your struggling with the format…I want to kick your Mac’s ass for making it so hard on you! (Kidding, gosh!)
Keep it coming
What a sweet family this is going to be.. I loved the kiss – perfect ;)
Hurry back.
Always glad to read more of this.
The main fanfiction page has a link for sending info to the coders…try that to see if they can help w/the formatting issues.
Oh Fareast…don’t you know by now that it doesn’t matter if this story is formatted right…spaced right…your writing captivates us so much, that we don’t even notice. I too am sad that this story is ending. It has been a favorite of mine, as well. However, where this ends, I hope another begins. Thank you.
I love this story. If you need to end this one., it would be cool to start another one.
i love this story so much and wait for an update everyday, please post soon
Please don’t let an inanimate object win out over posting. We like your story regardless of how it comes across in format. Your story is sooooo much more than formatting. Please continue to let us into this wonderful world that you have created with Vignettes!
Nicely done, the ‘soft and slow’ was simply devine.
Beautiful as always! Please don’t say you are ending this story! I simply won’t believe it….it is too good to end!
where have you been women. i have been waiting for this. please dont talk about ending it unless your going to write a sequel, because this story is wonderful. amazing chapter as per usual fareast.i’m lovin it.
You are brilliant as always.
I should tell you that when my girlfriend hears me let out a happy sound while sitting at the computer, she says “let me guess, Fareast posted?” And I turn to her with the biggest grin.
Thank you :)
I agree with Christy,let it continue one of my favorite story’s as well.Great job awaiting the next chapter.
CAN THE NEXT CHAPTER BE FAST AND HARD???
This story has been incredible, I will be sad to see it end. You have done a marvelous job writing it…I’ve enjoyed the journey and can’t wait for the next installment.
What a morning on the fanfics fareast, your beautiful, breathless story is such a favorite. And big chapters by JWET and Seahurst. Must be a holiday weekend.
I concur with Christy’s comment – please continue the story. Or start a new one! Just keep writing … you write the characters very well.
let me echo everyone else here and say this story is one of my favorites, format doesn’t matter, i was so excited to see it. but sad to hear that it’s ending… any chances for a sequel?
this story is breaththking…I love it thanks!
finally..some atitude…and thanks to Yoda..lol..i love it and i hope see more in a while..amazing chapter thanks :-)
i simply don’t accept just one more chapter. how’s that for a comment? if Tina wants Bette to crowd their lives, i think that it is only fair that you crowd this website with lots more posts. just a thought and Happy 4th!
