Chapter 61

As Jake made his way from the yard at the Porter-Kennard residence to Amanda’s yard, he growled and snapped at every naked woman who crossed his path. His cocky little prance had one message for everyone. “I’m the dog. My name is Jake! I live here – you don’t. Remember that and noone will get hurt. I’M DA MAN!!!” Jake jumped over rocks and sticks – he moved quickly – he was clearly a dog with a mission. You see, Amanda had one thing that Jake didn’t have at home – a diving board! He’d seen Amanda’s sons use hers and he was sure that he could do better. After all – he had four legs – and for jumping that had to be better than two.

As Jake approached the pool he knew he’d hit pay dirt!!! There was Dana. She thought she could get away from Jake – out of the clutches of the ‘little rodent’ as she had termed him. If dogs could laugh – Jake did. And it was an evil laugh. Ah…and there was the diving board. Now what could be sweeter than this. The board and his prey – just waiting for him to pounce. Jake ran around the pool – ready to hit the diving board when he saw something very attractive. There was Amanda standing by a barbeque! PIT STOP!!!!!!!

“Well, hey there Jakeman – what can I get you?” Jake stared at Amanda. “Oh – I thought so – you want a burger?” Jake stood on his hind legs and danced in a circle. He let out a single “woof ” that was clearly meant to be a polite “please” – in dog.

“You’re such a little suck up. Here you go little man – but remember – no swimming for an hour after you eat it. Deal?” Jake woofed again in agreement. He agreed but he didn’t mean it. You see- Jake always considered himself to be the superior being. Humans – well humans were to be used and tolerated by beings like him. They were not meant to be taken seriously!

Jake ate his burger and then ran off to check the status of his prey! Hmmmmmmm. She looked like she was having quite the good time in the pool with that blonde that Bette is always fighting with. Perfect field conditions!!!! Haha!

Jake ran around the pool – up onto the diving board and went sailing off. His four little legs out straight to the sides as he flew through the air and then hit the water with a splash! One thought went through Jake’s mind. ‘I’m a dead man!’ He then realized that he was no longer wearing his life jacket – Bette was nowhere in sight so she couldn’t save him. He went DOWN! He resurfaced and attempted to perform the dog paddle. He was frantic. He began to whimper. Now he was really scared – what he wouldn’t give to have his best friend, Bette, save him.

Suddenly, Jake felt two hands on his sides – there is a doggy GOD! The hands picked him up and held him tight. He rested his head on the person’s shoulder. He let out a heavy sigh. All he could think was ‘Thank you Bette – you saved me.’ But wait a minute – this didn’t smell like his best pal. Who the ***** was this person? Well – it was none other than Dana. Jake lifted his head and growled. “You’re welcome – you little flea ridden rodent!” Jake put his head back on Dana’s shoulder and let out another heavy sigh. He was safe!!

Meanwhile – back at the ranch….

Bette and Tina, both quite naked…snuggled together in their bed. Bette ran her fingers down the front of Tina. Her hand came to rest on her belly. “My God Tina – you’re huge!”

“And you’re just noticing this????? I AM seven months pregnant – with twins! I’ve been huge for a long time – knock…knock…where have you been Baby?” Tina smiled at Bette.

“Oh – I noticed – I just haven’t said it. But you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.” Bette leaned over and kissed Tina.

“You know Bette – we see the doctor Monday, we start lamaze on Tuesday, we start parenting classes on Wednesday and we take mom to the doctor on Friday. ***** – what a busy week huh?”

“Yeah – very busy…speaking of busy………” Bette continued to run her hand on Tina’s belly. She leaned in to speak to the babies. ” Hey you two. How are things going in there? Is it starting to get a little crowded in there? You know what? I love you guys – more than you’ll ever know. I can’t wait to meet you – 8 weeks to go – eight weeks! I’m a little bit nervous – but I’m sure Mommy will hold me together. She’s the strong one you know – not me… I’m going to make love to your Mommy now ok…don’t watch…” Bette kissed Tina’s belly before sliding back up so she was face to face with Tina. She looked into Tina’s eyes. There were tears. “What’s going on Baby?”

“I’m scared…what if I don’t know what to do…” Bette kissed Tina again. “We’re going to be fine – we are….you are going to be one excellent mommy.” Bette began caressing Tina’s belly. She moved her hand up to Tina’s breast and caressed her nipple – then she did the same to her other nipple. She kissed her again with increased passion. She moved her hand down between Tina’s legs and entered her. Tina gasped. Bette kissed her again while moving her fingers in and out of her. Tina’s ***** came fast and it was intense. She began sobbing. Bette just held her – until she relaxed and her tears subsided.

“Bette – I love you so much – thank you for loving me…we’re gonna be ok…we are…”

“We are T…we’ll be more than ok…we’ll be great.”

“We really should get back out to the party Bette.”

“Yeah – we really should.”

Bette and Tina got up – got dressed and walked back out to the pool.

Dana walked up to Bette with Jake still in her arms.

“Hey Fairbanks- what are you doing with my dog???”

“Let’s just say that Jake and I have reached an understanding – at least for the moment!” Dana smiled – handed a very wet Jake to Bette and turned and walked away.

Jake kissed Bette’s face – obviously happy to be safe in the arms of his best buddy!

“What the ***** was that all about.” Tina asked Bette with a quizzical look on her face.

“I have no idea – no idea! But I intend to find out!”
