Bette, cleaning the tears from her face walked out of the bathroom, forgetting the scissors. She walked to the pool, aching to put her arms around Tina, realizing that since they arrived home they have been apart.

Greta was dancing with Dana while Alice, drinking another Margarita, was watching Tina ad Helen like a hawk. Shane, slowly enjoying a beer, was looking at Greta, smiling.

Tina saw Bette walking outside and an instant smile appeared on her face. Walking towards her she saw Bette turning to wave at James who was dancing with a beautiful woman that Tina assumed was her girlfriend.

Bette didnt see Tina walking towards her so when she felt her arms hugging her from behind she jumped, taken by surprised, with the bad luck that she lost her balance, making Tina losing hers. They were standing just at the edge of the pool and as if in slow motion Tina saw Bette falling down in the pool. Reaching to grab her hand to stop her from falling Tina lost her balance, following Bette into the pool.

Alice bursted out laughing, seeing Bettes face, her wet hair all over her eyes while Tina, gasping, was removing hers from her eyes, looking at Bette, laughing.
Dana and Greta, pretty drunk were still dancing unaware of the hosts clumsy scene, while Helen, at Alices side was laughing too.

Bette, seeing Tinas smile, swam towards her. Once at her side, removing some hair from Tinas face she leaned, whispering,

I guess this makes it official turning forty is becoming one ***** of an adventure

Tina had no idea what Bette was talking about, but noticing the playful look in her eyes and feeling her lips on hers was more than enough to let it go.

Bette kissed Tina for a lond time, making Helen gasp, turning to look away from them.Tina got herself lost in Bettes kiss till she felt people staring at them.

Bug, why dont we continue with this inside, we better get change

Yeah right, you right mumbled Bette, showing Tina with her tone how stoned she was.

What have you drank?” Chuckled Tina, climbing the pool stairs.

Bette, following Tina, pushed her out, helping her. Once out of the pool, feeling their friends looking at them while Alice clapped, they theatrically bow before heading inside to get change.

“Is not what I have drank, is what I have smoked whispered Bette, playfully pushing Tina to their room.

What? asked Tina, turning to look at Bettes wet face.

Shane is a bad influence winked Bette, smiling.

Tinas eyebrow made Bette giggle, adding,

But such a wise woman she finished, closing the door behind her, taking Tina in her arms, kissing her hard, again.

Bette pushed Tina inside, kissing her, holding her face with her hands. She kissed her passionately, fiercely, demanding. Tina kissed Bette back, loving the urge in Bettes lips, the touch in her arms, the heat in the way she was being kissed.

Braking the kiss to breath, Bette moved lightly away from Tina, taking a few seconds to look at her. Noticing the happy look in her eyes, how her lips, falling apart, were aching for Bettes, feeling her hands on her hips, pressing the wet clothes to her trembling skin, having Tina so close, so vulnerable, so ***** and knowing it was a vision just for her draw a michevious smile on Bettes face that didnt go unnoticed to Tina.

What? she asked, kindly removing Bettes hair fom her face.

“I like your outfit teased Bette, taking a step back, getting a beter view of Tinas wet clothes, glued to her body. Her white linen shirt exhibiting her bold *****, as if no bra were protecting them. Her prominent belly playfully staring at Bette, while the skirt was caressing Tinas tighs shamelessly.

Tina, seeing the look on Bettes face, how she was bitting her lip looked down, realizing what Bette was meaning.
Smiling, taking a step forward, placing her hand on Bettes hip, she whispered, her words slowly tempting Bette,

“I guess I wil have to remove them dont want everybody to see me like this Tina said, moving her finger along Bettes slacks edge, leaving a burning path on her wet skin.

“No, of course not mumbled Bette, gasping from Tinas touch.

“No? stopped Tina, cocking aneyebrow.

“No (Bette said, shaking her head)meaning that I dont want them seeing you like this Bette clarified, leaning into Tina to whisper.

“Its just me the one who will enjoy the beauty and sexiness of your body she said, before placing her lips on Tinas neck, kissing her down to her collarbone where she let her tongue show Tina all the lust she was feeling.

Tina closed her eyes, loving Bettes touch. She felt Bettes lips on her, moving down till the shirt made it impossible. Breaking the kisses Bette leaned back, making Tina to open her eyes, looking at her. Bette was looking at Tinas collarbone, slowly caressing with her finger the path that her tongue has left behind. Dying on the first button, Bette let her handy fingers open it, and then the next one, stopping in between, caressing the skin that was appearing in front of her. The last button let the shirt open, but not enough to liberate Tinas body as the wet clothe was glued to her skin in the boldest way, making the look irresistible to Bette who gasped when she realized that as she just imagined, Tina was not wearing any bra.

You are not Bette tried to say, carefully caressing Tinas erect nipple, loving the cold touch.

I thought we were going to have time to change before the party..I didnt need it at the Spa whispered Tina, unable to hold her eyes open while Bette was touching her that way.

Bette, noticing Tinas eyes closing, how her mouth was slowly opening, noticing her dry lips calling her name, smiled. Cupping Tinas other breast she started massagining while placing her lips on Tinas again, kissing her hard as it seemed that there was no other way of doing it that night. There was an urge, a need in feeling Tinas body.

Bettes hands became bolder, as well as her mouth, making Tinas knees weak. Holding herself on Bettes hips, Tina was enjoying Bettes passion when she felt an urgent need.
Breaking the kiss, getting her breath back, she barely mumbled,

Bug, Bug she said, smiling as Bette was stil kissing her, not wanting to break the kiss.

Bug I need to go to the bathroom Tina said, smiling at the fact, and at Bettes confused look.

Now? asked Bette, confused in all her arousal and still pretty stoned.

Yeah whipered Tina, sorried.

Ok added Bette, nodding.

Tina leaned to kiss Bette on the lips before heading to the bathroom. Bette, still with her hand on Tinas hip just followed, unable to break the contact.

You coming with me? Asked a very amused Tina.

Bette, nodded, not voicing her houghts, not having any, just the passion that she was feeling running through her body.

Ok Tina chuckled, opening the door, looking around, checking no one was close as she was still half naked, with her shirt widely open.

They rushed to the bathroom. Once inside Bette locked the door while Tina was using the toilet. As she turned to look at her she saw Tina already washing her hands, smiling seductively at her. An instant smile appeared on Bettes face as she slowly paced towards her, and then, realizing she was in the same bathroom where she heard Tinas conversation, memories run through her body, making her to shiver.

Tina, noticing the light change on Bettes eyes, moved closer, placing her hands on her dripping slacks.

Are you ok babe? She kindly asked, making Bette nodded as an impulse, but then, as the promise she made to herself in that same bathroom just a few minutes ago hit her, Bette added,

Tee, I love you..I do.. Bettes serious tone, the look in her eyes made Tina realized that under the influence of whatever Bette had smoked or drank she was being completely serious, and that somehow she was trying to say something else with those words. The way Bette was holding Tinas shoulder was showing Tina what Bette words were not saying.

I love your body, I love your smile, I, I love the way you walk, I love the way you look after our friends after me I love your insecurities she finished, hiding her face on Tinas neck, sweetly kissing her , pulling her into an embrace.

Tina was not sure what was all that about. Bettes words were beautiful but confusing. Tina was going to say, to answer to Bettes words when she heard Bette saying,

I have loved you since the first time I saw you.and I will love you till I die and I hate that there is other people out there who loves you too, who wants you the same way I want you

Bette noticed the change on Tinas face, how she was opening her mouth to say something after hearing those last words.

“But I love knowing that as much as others want you.you want me (she whispered). Knowing that somehow, because of some miracle you want me, you love me instead of loving any of those women out there, make me me feel special, strong, powerful

Tina, with her face much more relax that just a few seconds before was nodding, listening to Bettes words.

You are special babe, you are one of the strongest persons I know but most important(Tina was taking Bettes face in her hands) you are the only one who can make my heart explote with joy, you are the only one who can melt my knees just by placing your hand on mine, you are the only one who just by touching me can make my knees weak and my head spin. Your smile make my days easier, your presence give me confidence, your friendship fill my loneliness and your embrance make my sleep more peaceful at night

Bette, was unaware of the tears that were rolling down her face as Tinas speech was carefully filling her heart with the words that she only hoped to remember for ages to come.

Tina kissed Bette tenderly for a long time, tasting the salty memories of the moment they just shared, of the words they exchanged, of the memories they bring back and of the promises they just made.


Shane, leaning on the wall, outside in the garden, while watching Greta dancing with Dana felt big fat tears rolling down her nonchalant face. She was feeling her heart full of love, of hope, of joy. Listening to her friends words, hearing them kissing put the biggest smile on her face. Taking another sip from her beer, cleaning the fat tears from her face Shane moved, walking towards Greta.
