The morning had passed off peacefully and Bette had remained firmly sunken in the voluptuousness of her comfortable sofa. She had finally managed to read the paper from cover to cover and her luxury reading time had been supplemented with delicious cups of coffee brought by Augustine.
"I, really, don’t know why I don’t do this more often." She thought to herself. The answer was simple though. Throwing herself into work, had so far, allowed her to not think about how lonely she really was.
But today, she felt a sense of peace which she had not felt for a very long time, and she knew perfectly that it had a whole lot to do with the presence of a certain blonde, a few doors down from her.
Further down the length of the house, however, in Bette’s cool and spacious office, Tina was having more difficulties concentrating on her task.
Plopped down in the leather swivel chair, she turned her chair sideways slightly and contemplated the view which extended beyond the viewing deck on the left hand side of the office.
The vast expanse of the Kenyan wilderness sprawled as far as the eye could see in front of her. A beautiful covering of warm ochre and vibrant red earth, dotted here and there with the fading greenery of a shrub or the skeletal outline of a lonely tree.
What a contrast from the oppressive and cluttered streets of New York. The noisy and polluted atmosphere of the big metropolis versus the exotic and romantic setting of a wild and largely untamed country.
"Romance," she mused.
She paused for a moment to reflect on her own love life. The handsome older guy in high school who she fell for so easily. It did not last beyond the end of the summer holidays that year, though.
She laughed inwardly at how she was convinced that this was the time she learned to kiss so well. Not that she had been able to prove that theory in quite a while of late.
There were a few more along the way, but the one that changed her life forever brought a smile to her face. Short, spiky dark hair with the bluest of eyes and answered to the name of Grace.

Such an interesting story..it is drawing me further and further within!
i love this story wow they want each other soooo much what a connection!
Thank God, as I clicked on page “4” I silently prayed that you would have Tina ask Bette to take her on that trip! Thanks for that, I am so looking forward to all the moaning Tina is going to let out when she sees Bette into action. Not “that” kind of action, but definitely hot anyway! Delightful chapter, my dear! Light, drama free, with lots of nice fuzzy feelings involved… Just what I need as I am ready to go to bed. I loved the little “hair and watermelon” scene. C’est aussi dans ces moments la que je reconnais ta plume! This way you have to make a tiny and otherwise insignificant situation into a sweet and romantic moment between our ladies. Intimacy… That’s the word I am looking for. You have this special talent in writing intimacy. That shows in your words and that’s what makes their chemistry so beautiful. Thanks for this chapter, and looking forward to the next, but I know you have a lot on your hands with the big day tomorrow. Or as I understand it, tomorrow might be the day when you find peace again, with the little two in other hands… LOL! Anyway, thanks for tonight’s treat and for having Tina on that helicopter! B&H, Kw.
This is really sweet, thank you. Maybe Bette could buy her own helicopter?
Just love this story.
What a treat to pop in here tonight and see that you posted. I love this story. I am just about to finish “A letter on the subway” and will start on your next one. You are a very romantic writer and I love that. I hope Bette agree’s to take Tina with her. Asante!
Lol – hadn´t thought about John Wayne as a parallel to Bette. Quite impossible actually. Just the setting. Your story is quite amazing. Your attention to the intimacy between the two women and well just little details is just awesome.
Thou I’m afraid what that Incident can do to Bette’s mood..[any chance it was Jodie’s doing?] I’m in awe of this… When it had been time for dessert, Bette had helped herself to a juicy slice of watermelon. As she had been about to bite into the refreshing deep red flesh of the fruit, a long lock of hair had fallen across her face. With fingers dripping with the pink juices of the watery treat, she had tried to blow it out of her vision, but it had fallen right back where it was.Smiling, Tina had seen her lunch companion’s dilemma. The blonde had reached over and had lifted the stray lock, tucking it behind the brunette’s ear.Bette had felt a shiver run through her body as the accountant’s fingers brushed over the edge of her ear. “Thanks.” She had said quietly…As if that scene is unfolding right before my eyes.. Thanks for the post K40.
Loved it. Love any story that has them meeting and falling in love and being together. So happy that Tina asked to go along, hope Bette says yes. I have a feeling that damned jodie will be there trying to poach the little fella, hope Bette catches her and puts her behind in jail. Thanks for the post.
Lovely post Kins! I appreciate that you’re taking your time with B&T’s growing attraction because there is so much for them to discover in this story. Oh, and thanks alot for making me hungry! That lunch sounded scrumptious – even the water mellon (which I’m not a fan of ;). PPS as time permits…
SIGH, I just love this story and your writing in general. Thanks for posting, kins.
Read both your updates on this story. How simply wonderful they were. So beautifully written and just lovely to read. I just want to keep reading and reading. Thank you again. Just awesome.
Love your story.Looking forward to the update about the trip.
I like it when will they admit to each other and themselves that there is an attraction?
Glad you enjoyed your stay in France, I took a few days myself too and just caught up…. Great chapter, I loved the natural shy easiness Tibette are when around each other. I’m with Dainty sending Jodie to jail, especially if she’s the one hurting the elephant calf but I’m sensing that you’ll not do that very soon and you’re going to use her against my favorite two. I’m looking for Bette teaching Tina about the wilderness and the latter discovering it. When Tina said “take me with you”, Prince’s song popped in my mind. Awesome writings, thanks.
Hi Kins! :-) oh~~.. sweet watermelon!! such a sweet tender moment ;-) lol…Amazing! How do you do that?! Even simple thing of eating watermelon can be that romantic? And I am glad to read page 4 as kw too when hoping T to join B :-) and it’s a helicopter ride… Though for emergency, I think with your talent you can make it as a romantic trip for them (: PS: ha3… Looks like your last chapter awaken the rage of the club :-p and I do hope there’s some evident found on the site this time which lead the authority to the real culprit
Here we go T, u rocks ;DI loved this chapter, thank u and keep it coming
It appears we have a couple of smitten kittens on our hands, does it not? I’ve been keeping up but incrementally since work has kept me more than busy. I can’t help but believe that you forgot to post the rest of the chapter though…surely you meant to include Bette’s reaction to Tina’s request to accompany her? Post more when you can. Hope you are well!
What a wonderful and intriguing story!
Love Bette and tina
