As Tina sat up to remove her clothing, warm hands exploited its vacation, they slid from her hips to her lips. Their kiss, bleeding the tenderness they felt into action. Bette straddled Tina’s hips and revelled in the feel of their skin as its fabric glided and thrilled in the delicious friction it caused. Bette felt Tina hands on her hips;

“off”

Tina rolled Bette and governed her own instructions. Trailing kisses between Bette’s naked hips she mused that indeed, she carried the scent of sweet spices, to acquire more information she licked up the angle of where her thighs met her abdomen.

Bette directed Tina up to face her, pausing, trying not to dissolve into the desire that strummed inside as Tina sat astride her, the heat and silky wetness already tangible against her stomach.

Looking into Tina’s eyes, Bette saw so much, the want and the breathlessness, but also, deep thought tonight, a deeper sense of desire, like the fulfilling of a memory. She saw herself in her eyes and melted further as Tina kissed one of the palms cupping her face, pulling it down. Tina lent back slightly as Bette traced the length of her neck down, Bette could not remove her connection with Tina’s eyes, Bette would swear in that moment she saw clouds and a piercing moon pass across them.  

The dark night bent, echoed and shivered as whispers comingled and hands became urgent, rough and dextrous, lips and mouths hard, soft and searching, lust came thick and sweet as their bodies bent to pleasure.

Tina let her thumb and feathery fingertips soothe and tame the tremors out of Bette, nestling closer to kiss her under her chin, and pull her hand up her back, into the curls that clung to the nape of her neck, she kissed and gently grazed her shoulder with her teeth and lips.  

Tina held her as Bette slipped from her exhaustion with love on her lips, into sleep once more. Tina watched her face and came back into the now, satisfied the longing in her had been sated, the loneliness bridged.

Can you placate memories ? Probably not. But as Tina pulled Bette’s hand across gently to cover her heart she wondered that some actions might begin a little to ease the passage a little.
