Tina: please Bette, love me, please..( Tina leaned back into the kiss)

Bette (gasping for air)Tina honey,(kiss), baby,(kiss), tonight is about, ( gasping loudly in-between licks and kisses), sharing, and .

Tina; ( looking so sincerely into Bettes eyes) Bette, do you want me

Bette; ( feeling the wetness in her core drip out of her) baby you know I do but remember last night(kiss), , come on baby this is, (kiss), killing me, I dont want to loose you again, not tonight..(Bette gasped the word out as she ran her hands along Tinas neck)

Tina: (stepping right back from Bette and also gasping for air), baby, I have never felt like this. You make me so alive and for once I feel like a woman.take me to bed, hold me, talk to me, support me, help me, but baby, (deep, slow passionate kiss), baby, (kiss), make love to me like only you can.. please!!!!

Bette: TBC


Bette: (moving towards Tina taking her by the hand. In a seductive voice and sincerity in her eyes), Tina baby, come with me

Bette led Tina out of the living room and into the room that had the grand piano. Bette placed Tina down behind it as she pulled over another seat. All the time Tina was staring at Bette wondering what she was thinking. Finally Bette spoke..

Bette: Tina, baby, please, please do not ask me if I want you. (Bette was sitting so that the 2 were facing each other. The room was lit by 2 candles and some silvery light from the moon. The atmosphere was electric and Bette spoke with control in the lightest softest voice meant only for angels). I have known you a short time, and most of that has been on the phone.

Tina: but..

Bette: ( holding her finger to Tinas lips), please let me finish. Because when I do its over to you. You decide what happens tonight. But first hear me out. Ok?

Tina: (with a sigh as her heart rate returned to normal), ok.

Bette: (clearing her throat), like I said we have known each other only a short while, but in that time we have got , close. I like you Tina, I like you a lot. I have been with a few women in my time, (blushing and looking directly at Tina), but baby nothing like what is happening here has ever happened to me before. I have feelings for you like I have wanted you all my life. When I first spoke to you, you captured me. When I first met you, you made my heart skip, when you first kissed me you tortured and tormented me and when you just kissed me there, you set me alight. Baby, this is so new for me. I normally end up in bed with someone very quickly. Im not saying that to hurt you and now that I hear it out loud I feel somewhat embarrassed but you my darling, youre different. Tina I would wait till ***** froze over to be with you, if it kept you happy. You said that you wanted me to make love to you. (Tina nodded her head). Last night you kicked me out after you kissed me. My heart is on a rollercoaster and its time to get off and be honest. Tina, baby, I am falling for you in such a way that if you wanted the Loch Ness monster in your pool, ***** I would go and drag his wee ***** over here, just for you, no matter how hard it was. Tinaopen up to melet me in..why are you running and what makes you cry oh so sadly. Let me in so that when we do make love we wont regret it. Making love can only make us stronger if we trust each other

Bette began to look into Tinas eyes searching for answers. She didnt have to look too hard. Tina got up and walked out of the room. She returned in a few moments with a photo album in her hand and gestured for Bette to follow her. Bette caught her up and allowed Tina to take her into the bedroom. Again there were lovely soft candles all around. Tina sat on the bed and bummed her way up to sit with her back against the headboard. Bette followed and sat very close by Tinas side. They sat in silence for a moment until Tina opened the album. She looked at Bette with puppy eyes and a hopeful face. Bette melted but did not speak. She had said enough, it was Tinas time now and Bette was going to give her all the time she needed.

Tina: here is my other family. The one I left behind. Here is my dad, my sister, and my 2 brothers. Here is my mummy.

Tinas voice was emotionless until she came across her mother. Her voice became thick and it was painful for her to speak.

Tina: I love my mum Bette and to an extent my brothers. But no one else. My dad is a bully, a big man who likes to shout and gives people permission to live, if it suits him. Cross him and life is *****. My sister is very like him. I am not close to her. Being with my family makes my chest hurt. It crushes and I ache as I try to breathe. It no joke Bette, if I had stayed my life would have been his.

Tina looked at Bette and understood the look on her face. Bette wanted to know why?

Tina: (deep breathe and without emotion). I met Eric when I was 14. We went to school together. We were boyfriend and girlfriend, well as much as holding hands and the odd smile when no one was looking. I met him when I was 14 and that Christmas he gave me a wee chain to go round my neck. I took it home and showed it to my mum. I will never forget the rest. She told me to show it to my dad. I protested but she told me to, so I did. He sat behind the newspaper as I spoke to him. When I was finished he snapped down the paper and asked me what his name was again. I told him. He knew his parents and his grandparents. I didnt think much of that. A short time passed and then Erics name used to get mentioned a lot in the house. To cut a very long story short my dad was convinced that Eric and I were sleeping together. BETTE WE WERENT I SWEAR!!!!!

Bette held Tinas hand and urged her to continue

Tina: Bette, I played netball and he played football. That was all I wanted to do to play for Scotland and study. By my dad kept going on and on. When we got a little older, I think about 16 Eric came to visit. He then visited weekly. Sometimes we sat with everyone, sometimes in the kitchen, and occasionally we went up stairs to listen to some music. Yes we kissed but my god Bette I was the most naive girl in the world. I wasnt interested in ***** and would not have known what to do anyway. But my dad was convinced that we were shaggin. To make matters worse my mum told him that she didnt believe him. That destroyed their marriage. Over the next few years the arguments got worse. He followed me, watched me, would walk into my room at night when I was studying and just stare at me. I went to Uni in Edinburgh and Eric stayed in Glasgow. I wasnt allowed to stay in Edinburgh at the weekends. For 4 years I traveled home on a Friday and back on a Sunday night. He was a control freak and I was too scared to stand up to him. Dont get me wrong we fought but he always won. He makes my heart cry Bette.

Tina; one Christmas, I think I was 19. Yes I was, he got angry at me and picked up all my gifts and chucked them into the front garden and threw me out. I just stood there in the cold, no jacket , money, no one really, my brothers and sisters and mum didnt come out. So I picked everything up and walked 4 miles to Erics. He wasnt in. He was out with his parents visiting. When I walked back his car was outside mine. He saw me and came out. He never challenged my dad. Maybe he was too scared. If I was him I would have ran from me and found someone else.

Tina; Bette, one summer I traveled around America for a few months. Eric met me. Our flights home were separate. He flew to Glasgow and I went via London. No one met me at the airport in Glasgow. Not even Eric. I got on the bus into Glasgow centre. No one again. Got the bus home and walked up the hill to my house. I had been away for 4 months. The baby of the family. Do you know what I walked into Bette?

Bette; ( with tears in her eyes at the things she was hearing but more so at the look on Tinas face and the lack of emotion she was showing) no baby I dont. tell me..

Tina; ok, lets see if I can do this word for word. Dad: oh your home. Get down to confession

Tina; aye thats about what was said. And you know whatI did what I was told. I am a sad stupid ***** who should have told him to ***** off..but I didnt. I kept going back for more.

Tina flipped over a page in her album to reveal Eric.

(Scotland talking now, this story is very real and I am finding this very hard so please stay with me. Eric is really called Mark so I call him that by mistake Im sorry).

He had dark short hair and was very handsome. His eyelashes were long and he had a gorgeous smile. Bette studied him for a while then looked at Tina. Tina continued.

Tina: not bad looking eh?

Bette: very handsome, not my type though..(Bette forced a smile to let Tina know that she was playing)

Tina: (smiled back and sat on Bettes knee. Bette held her gently and ran her nose along her neck as she listened). Bette, you have no IDEA!!!!. Eric is a dead nice guy. Funny, smart, but hopeless at standing up for himself so he was never going to do it for me.

Tina: I slept with Mark when I was 21. Yes we had been going out for 7 years.

Bette; was he your first

Tina; and only

Bette; my god Tina (Bette was gubbed. She could not believe that Tina had only been with Eric. Tina turned to face Bette)

Tina: it got worse when we got married. Quick run of it is: my dad told us where to get married, where to live, what to do, when to *****, eh oh and one day he tried to kill himself. The police found him. Sent him home to my mum. The next day he was in bed and I was in his house babysitting him. He came down stairs with a knife and started to cry. He had put it in his chest.

Bette was horrified. She could not believe what she was hearing.

Bette; ***** baby, what happened. (Bette began to cry)

Tina: hey you. The old ***** lives on remember. Please dont get upset.

Bette: (holding Tinas face). ***** him, Im crying for you. What did you do baby?

Tina; well, I remember being pregnant with Emma and feeling so sick anyway but to be honest I was pissed off at him for showing me his second failed attempt and I feel so bad for thinking that.

Tina; eh what did I do? Took him to hospital. It wasnt too deep. I then had to take him to the psychiatric ward. As I sat outside it I looked at my top that had his blood on it. I felt nothing. When everyone else arrived I asked Mark to take me home. He did and I went to bed. I asked him to come with me but he wanted to go out. So I lay in bed, alone and held my unborn baby in my tummy and cuddled it.

Tina: I gave birth to Emma and then the next year had Lucy. The love between Mark and I began to run out. We made love when I wanted to and that was not very often.. It was always about him cuming, him grabbing my *****, him pushing so hard. In the end I just told him that I didnt like it. We stayed together for 2 years with no *****. He went golfing to Spain and met an English bird. She is married too. 2 months later we went to Italy with the girls. My friends were going to the Netball World Championships in Jamaica and I asked Mark if I could use his mobile to text them. Seconds after I sent the text three beeped in. As I read them I was sick to my stomach. The filthso I went outside. Knelt down beside him. Showed him his phone and quietly asked him what he wanted for breakfast. (Tina was laughing now and Bette was nervous). What a *****!! Anyway he slept in the girls room that night as I took them in with me before he came to bed. We came home, he left, and now Im here. That really is my life Bette. Now you knownot all bad as I have 2 wee girls whom I would do anything for.

Tina looked at Bette for her to say something.

Bette: Tina baby, no words can explain how I feel. If I ever meet your dad or Eric.. never mind. Baby, why didnt you like the *****.

Tina; I told you it wasnt very good (Tina was blushing as she was on Bettes knee and very close to her face)

Bette; why? How?

Tina: (getting off Bettes knee and sitting beside her). Bette, this may be hard for you to believe but Mark never made me *****, he never touched me on my *****, he never tasted me and we always had ***** in the dark with him on top and never naked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bette: ( speechless)..whatnever to all of those thingsbaby your still a ***** virgin!!!!

The 2 women burst into uncontrolled laughter. They held their sides and rolled around the bed. Eventually they stopped and lay beside each other looking at the ceiling.

Tina; aye, this is the only view I have ever had. Bette,

Before Tina could finish Bette rolled gently on top of her.

Bette; hows the view now my baby?

Tina: eh.bloody amazing sweetheart

Bette; my god, only with him but never really with him. You are pure and innocent Kennard do you know that?

Tina: yes pure as the driven snow that has been trampled on..twice

Bette; yeah but to trample and make babies and a guy ***** and to trample and have passionate love made to you with someone you want is a whole new trample my wee one, trust me..

Tina: if you say so.

Bette gently rolled over and took Tina with her so that she could be on top.

Bette; see, in 5 mins of being with me on this bed you now have a different view, how good am I huh?

Tina: dont get cute Porter.

Bette; cute eh. Do you think Im cute Tina?

Tina:( blushing so much and squirming), look my pretty. Im on top now. Im in charge.

Bette; oh so Im pretty now. Do you think Im pretty Tina?

Tina: do ieh not really.. (big sigh) I think that you are the most beautiful woman in the world and if Eric could see me now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bette: oh now, would you like him to be hear( Bette was unsure of Tinas response. Bette flipped her over again)

Tina: wow I wish you would stop doing that, it makes me dizzy. No no no, not in a million years would I want that ***** near us

Bette; us? ( teasing Tina)

Tina; well, isnt there an us now?

Bette smiled a million dollar smile and brought her face close to Tina

Bette; (with the same husky voice used earlier), you tell me baby. Remember I told you that when you stopped speaking you got to decide what happened

Tina: oh forgot about that. Well I may have a plan.(Tina felt her nipples harden and her whole body ache)

Bette; ( kissing Tinas nose with velvet kisses whilst trying to keep her hips from touching Tinas)), go on

Tina: well it may be a little one sided but to over come that you may have to tutor me

Bette; ( chest heaving and gasping for air, her panties wet again for the second time that night), GO ON!!!!!

Tina: ok ( Tina could feel her legs get moist from the wetness dripping out of her) ok , could you, take me to the place that Eric never could? And could you help me to try and take you with me? (Tina could hardly breathe)

Bette: oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh baby, (kissing Tina deeply, slowly and passionalty), fffffuuuccccckkkkkkkkkk, the train has already departed,

Tina : take me baabbbbyyyyyy
