“I don’t know what the means.” Bette’s voice comes out in a whisper and Tina’s response matches it.

“It means that I may have desires and I may fall back into old habits every now and then but you have to believe that I only want you and I only want to be wanted by you. People like Helena don’t respect boundaries but they can only get between us if we don’t trust one another implicitly. I’m making a promise to you right now. As long as we are in an exclusive relationship I will honor and respect our commitment. I’m not a cheater Bette. I won’t break the sanctity of our relationship and I trust that you won’t either.”

“I would never cheat on you Tee. You can trust me on that. I’m sorry for thinking the worst Tee.”

“We’ll work on the trust issue together. Just give your overactive imagination a rest and talk to me. Don’t shut me out Bette. Don’t push me away and I promise I won’t run away. OK?”

“OK.”

Tina leans down and gives Bette a sweet tender kiss. Her feather like touch is soft and light on Bette’s lips and face as she kisses the tears away. Bette flips Tina over and deepens the kiss capturing Tina’s mouth which immediately opens to receive her tongue. The kiss is intense as they both try to convey so much more than they can put into words. Finally they need to take a breath and Bette ends the kiss but she doesn’t lose eye contact; she just stares into Tina’s eyes. “I missed you Tee.” She says affectionately accompanied by her most seductive Porter smile.

Tina can’t resist when Bette turns on one of the many Porter smiles that she keeps in her arsenal. She simply melts. Tina can barely get the words out but manages “I missed you too babe” before Bette pulls her on top of her and brings her head down for another scorching kiss. Tina leans into Bette and settles into the curve of her body. Bette moans as Tina kisses her neck and sucks on her ear lobes. She eventually finds Bette’s mouth again and kisses her hungrily. As Tina deepens the kiss Bette can feel her hardened nipples through the thin T-shirt and lacy bra. Tina becomes more aware of her heightened sensitivity and arousal and she wonders how Bette could ever doubt her yearning. She doubled her efforts and Bette’s response encouraged her as she voiced her pleasure at what Tina was doing to her. Bette felt Tina’s desire and no longer had thoughts of Tina wanting anyone else. The kissing, touching, caressing, licking was hot and heavy. If they didn’t stop soon they would be making love on the grass in front of the beautiful lake.
