Bette let out a laugh, "Please T, you’re the complete opposite of hideous. Especially in that dress"

"What’s that supposed to mean?" Tina teased with a raised eyebrow. She smiled wide at the flustered look on Bette’s face.

"Nothing. I’m just saying I like it"

Tina chuckled to herself and decided to let Bette off the hook, nodding her approval while trying to hide her excitement. It wasn’t the first time they flirted or were playful with each other but there was just something different that time around. Tina couldn’t help but feel a change in the air and she liked it. It gave her chills.

They continued to make their way through the gallery, enjoying their time together as Bette pointed out the pieces of artwork that had been put up since Tina’s last visit. They teased one another, they laughed and appeared completely blissful in each other’s company. They even gained an audience of both admiring and envying onlookers that could easily see the that there was something between the two women lost in their own little world.

"So there’s a hot redhead that’s been staring at you for the past twenty minutes" Tina teased, hoping that her tone hid the jealousy underneath.

She discreetly gestured to the beautiful woman standing at the other side of the room, a drink in hand and her eyes on the prize. The woman was drop dead sexy, dressed to kill in the tightest black dress Tina had ever seen. Her flowing crimson hair fell gracefully at her shoulders, framing her delicate face perfectly. Bette looked in the direction that Tina had pointed towards and for a moment, her eyes met a beautiful pair of light brown orbs.

The woman was everything Bette would have been looking for once upon a time, someone to share one passionate night with and nothing more. Bette mentally shook her head at the fact that she would go home with women like that regardless of how lonely it made her after. She had been searching for something, craving something that she had nearly given up on. It was that very something that Bette now felt she could finally have. With Tina.
