Tina kissed Bette hard on the mouth. “Tell her thank you for me,” she chuckled. “Come on let’s shower. It’s almost noon and we’re still naked and in bed, not that it’s a bad thing, but I’m getting hungry.” Tina stood naked next to the bed and looked down at Bette, who reclined against the pillows. “Shall we shower together or separate?” Tina had begun to walk backwards to the master en suite.

Bette jumped out of bed. “If the thought of you showering alone entered that sweet head of yours, you can forget it. We’re doing everything together.”

Tina cocked her head to one side and raised an eyebrow as she continued to walk backwards. “Everything?” she asked.

“Everything that two people can do together everything.” Bette chased after Tina who let out a squeal once Bette caught her. “

“T, I can’t believe I let you talk me into climbing this lighthouse.” Bette grabbed onto the railing, her knuckles were turning white from how tight she was clenching the cool bar.

“Just don’t look down Bette and you’ll be fine.”

“That’s easy for you to say, you’re not the one whose ass is clenching tightly.”

Tina laughed at Bette’s remark. “Once we get up top and walk around you’ll be okay. The view is worth it.”

Bette glanced down, the metal staircase spiraled in the lighthouse. “I don’t think I can do it, T.”

Tina glanced at Bette. She made her way to the brunette and reached for her hand. “Hold my hand and I’ll help you…in whatever way I can, I’ll always be here to help you.” Instead of walking ahead of Bette, Tina walked alongside her up the spiral staircase and they made their way to the top of Old Barney.

“Oh my god, T. The view is spectacular. Really beautiful.”

Tina never took her eyes off Bette. “Yeah, really beautiful,” she agreed. “Let’s go outside on the catwalk.”

“What? I don’t know if I can go out there.”

“Bette, you climbed to the top. You have to do the catwalk. You can see a lot more.” She gave Bette’s hand a squeeze. “Do this and I’ll do whatever you want later.”

“Whatever I want?” Bette raised an eyebrow.

“Whatever you want.” Tina promised.
