“And I would be remiss if I didn’t share my thoughts.” Tina said before more cheering. “When Bette first entered my life, I felt as though nothing else in the world mattered. I was under a spell. Even though we fell apart for a long time throughout the years, that spell was never broken. I couldn’t get away no matter how hard I tried. And now every day I get up, I thank god for Bette Porter being in my life.”
As if on cue, the entire room erupted in cheers, whistles and clapping. They all stood, smiling.
Dakota and Zoe stood between their mothers and hugged them. Music started. Before the dancing continued for the evening, Dakota took the microphone again. “I have a gift I’d like to give my mothers before the evening ends. Throughout this year at school I’ve been working on a project for my thesis. Part of it involves studying the dynamics of same sex couples in regard to love, passion, commitment, and roles. I put together a book that studied a married, lesbian couple who have been together for a long period of time. I couldn’t think of a better pair than my own mothers. On the back table is that book. Feel free to glance through it.”
The music started again and people stood to dance. Some made their way to the book. Bette looked at Tina with a curious expression. “Did you know about this?”
Tina shook her head. “Not at all.”
“Should we go check it out?”
Bette glanced at the table. “No, not now. Herds of people have the same idea we do.”
“Shall we dance then?”
“Absolutely.” Bette took Tina into her arms for the billionth time in her life. They gracefully moved around the room. “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?”
“Let’s get out of here?” Tina buried her face into Bette.
“My thoughts exactly.”
“You wouldn’t be thinking about leaving, would you? After all the work your daughters put into this lovely evening?” Dakota snuck up behind her mothers, Julianne dancing in her arms.
“We would never!” Bette replied, grinning.
“That’s what I thought.”
“But seriously… people are leaving. When is it safe to go?” Bette asked.
“We’re not as young as we used to be.” Tina said.
“Soon.” Dakota reassured them.
“Why don’t we all sneak out together?” Julianne suggested.
“Wonderful idea! Kody, you should keep her around.” Bette teased.
“You want to hang out with two old folks?” Dakota asked.
Bette glared. “Old folks? We were young once.”
“Like a hundred years ago!”
Tina shook her head. “You two….”
“Ok, ok. We can get out of here. Should I grab Zoe?” Dakota asked.
As people filtered out of the building, Tina and Bette gathered their things. They said goodbye to everyone, but Alice, Dana, and Shane all decided to swing by Bette and Tina’s.
At the house, everyone snuggled in comfortable clothes, bottles of red wine opened. The book Dakota made was on the coffee table for everyone to see. As they flipped through the pages, some squeals of laughter escaped. Other times, they sat in silence. And some times, eyes watered quick tears.
“This book is fucking amazing, Kody.” Alice said as she sipped on wine.
“How on earth did you find out all this stuff, all these pictures, these stories, these intimate details?” Bette asked, astonished.
“It wasn’t very hard when Alice, Dana and Shane are around all the time. The old pictures are stashed away in your closet and all the stories you’ve shared with us over the years helped.”
“This is the best present I could have ever received. Thank you.” Bette’s eyes were full of tears.
“How could I give anything less?” Dakota’s eyes watered as well.
“Well, the two people most likely not to cry are ready to start bawling.” Alice rolled her eyes.
As the night continued, even more stories were shared. And as everyone went their separate ways, loved was also made, several times in several beds. Bette and Tina had come full circle, story to story, experience to experience, love to love. And with each new passing day, the circle would continue to grow.
