Tina led Bette into the bedroom, tightly holding her hand. As they walked into the room, Bette noticed the low lighting being emitted from the wall sconces as that was all that was needed with another fire having been lit in the fireplace in their bedroom.

Tina walked them to the end of the bed, turned and faced Bette. She gathered Bettes other hand in her own and brought them both to rest against her chest. She looked deeply into Bettes eyes and saw that the emotions that she had seen before, trust, love and desire, were still there, and if anything, coming through stronger. She also noticed though, a quick flash of question appear to cross her face and wanting everything to be out in the open before they took this next step, simply said, What, baby?

Nothing, T she quickly responded.

Tina merely raised an eyebrow in response to Bettes half truth and in speaking no words, told her to answer her question.

Bette saw the response from Tina and knew that she was aware of Bettes lack of complete honesty in her answer.

Its just that she started.

Tina said nothing, just held their hands together, pressing them against her chest as she took a step closer to Bette, intentionally erasing the space between them.

I guess that I am thinking that we had said that we had would take things slow, and well, its just that, being together for basically only a week, it justdoesnt seem that slow she softly said, allowing her eyes to fall towards the floor, studying the Oriental carpet between their feet.

Tina released one of Bettes hands and brought her free hand to Bettes chin, cupping it and raising it so that she was looking directly into Tinas eyes.

Bette she began taking a deep breath. When we said slow, I was not thinking slow in terms of calendar days, but more slow as in mental reconciliation. I knew going into this that it could take us 6 months, 6 weeks, or in this case, 6 days to arrive at the place that we have. I dont think that I have been shy in expressing to you tonight what it is that I want, and you quite frankly, have not been either. If you could see what is being emitted from your eyes, with or without your knowledge, you would know that what we are doing is right. Right for you, right for me, right for us as a couple and right for our future.

Bette simply looked back at Tina and finally understood that she was right. She knew in her heart of hearts that it was time to let go. She trusted Tina and knew for that to be truly understood by Tina, she would need to allow the two of them to fully reconnect.

Tina watched Bette absorbing the words that she had just shared and knew that the time was now. She knew that she could wait no longer and that she needed to show Bette how much she was loved.

Tina pulled Bette back into her, wrapping her arms around her. She noticed that the tremors of before had returned. She ran her hands up and down Bettes back while speaking directly into her ear.

Shhhbaby. Just you and me, remember? Just you and me she softly repeated.

Baby, the act of our making love is nothing but an extension of our words, simply our bodies saying to the other what our minds wish to have expressed. I want so badly to show you how much I love you.

She pulled Bettes head off of her shoulder where it had been resting, looking deeply into her eyes, softly said, Will you let me, Bette? Will you let me show you how much I love you?

Yes she whispered in answer, as they stood there, forehead to forehead, arms wrapped around the others waist.

Neither woman moved. Both heard the crackling of the fire behind them along with the soft music coming from the living room. The intensity of this conversation with the knowledge of what they were about to share had both breathing heavily.

Tina brought her hands up from around Bettes waist and ran them up her sides, slowing as she reached the sides of Bettes *****, then moving further to cup the back of her neck. She pulled Bette into her, turning her head so that their lips met in a scorching kiss, sending tremors through both of them.

Tina opened her mouth, thrusting her tongue against Bettes lips, demanding entrance into her mouth. Bette acquiesced immediately, parting her lips to eagerly accept Tinas probing tongue. Tina moved her hands up from Bettes neck to cradle the back of her head, pressing her head desperately against her own in order to gain as much access to her mouth as would be allowed.

Tina placed her leg in between Bettes, slowly but persistently grinding into her center. Bette moaned loudly into Tinas mouth and finally dragged it away in order to catch a breath.

Tina took the opportunity to quickly assess Bette. Her eyes were partially closed due to the weight of her desire and arousal. Bette quickly returned her lips to Tinas, forcefully and impatiently renewing the kiss. This time, it was Bettes tongue that demanded entrance into Tinas mouth. Tina welcomed her by greedily sucking her tongue as far into her mouth as she could. She continued to suck on her tongue as she felt the pounding between her legs start to dominate her mind.

She pulled away from Bette whose breathing had become as labored as her own. She released Bettes head and started to move her hands up and down her back while watching Bette. She knew that she had Bette so aroused that there was nothing that would come between the two of them and this night of passion that they both deserved.

She returned her hands to Bettes shoulders and then slowly, palm down against Bettes shirt, allowed them to make a path, tracing her collar bones, dropping even further, cupping both of her ***** in her hands.

She moved her thumbs up and lightly rubbed them against Bettes rock hard nipples. As she felt both nipples under her thumbs, Tina felt a tiny tremor pass through her own body. As she brought up her forefinger and allowed the two digits to manipulate her nipples, both women took in ragged breaths of air, trying unsuccessfully to fill their depleted lungs.

T Bette managed to whisper, losing control of her head as it fell backwards in absolute arousal.

Tina leaned forward and took the opportunity that she was presented with Bettes neck baring itself right before her. With her hands never leaving Bettes breast, she ran her tongue up and down the long and graceful expanse of skin, stopping in certain places to bite down somewhat forcefully, leaving tiny indentations and Bette panting in response.

Bette brought her head back up and grabbing Tinas in her hands, slammed her mouth back down onto Tinas, thrusting her tongue back into her mouth, madly rubbing their tongues against the other, both searching for this ultimate release that they both knew was needed.

Tina, whose hands had begun to roughly massage Bettes ***** through the material of her shirt, needed to feel her skin. She could no longer take the cloth being a barrier between what she needed, which was to feel the raw nakedness of Bettes body against her own.

She frantically pulled the shirt tail out of Bettes pants and just as quickly, ran her hands up under her shirt, not waiting to undo the buttons, in search of where her hands had just been.

She went right back to Bettes ***** and when her hands reached the flimsy fabric of the bra, effortlessly pushed the material up, finally giving her access to her breast. Both women loudly moaned as Tina roughly started to twist and pull on Bettes nipples.

T she whispered again, her own hands frantically searching for a zipper on Tinas dress to give her her own access to Tinas body.

Still frustrated at the limited access to Bettes body, Tina withdrew her hands from under Bettes shirt. Bettes lips and tongue that were running up and down her neck were like fire to Tina. Her ***** was pounding and she felt her wetness running down the inside of her legs.

Her hands were shaking as she tried to unbutton Bettes shirt. She was unsuccessful though due to the unsteadiness of her hands.

***** she hissed in frustration.

Im sorry, baby she hoarsely uttered as she placed her hands on either side of her shirt opening. The next sound that they heard was the ripping of fabric and popping of buttons.

Bette looked down in surprise as Tina, not caring what her reaction was, gasped at seeing Bettes bare ***** in front of her. She roughly pushed the shirt off of her shoulders and down her arms, dropping the now useless clothing on to the floor beside them. She then pulled the still fastened bra over Bettes head as Bette just stared on in fascination at this passionate woman standing in front of her.

Having Bettes upper torso now completely bare, Tina allowed her hands to freely roam and explore what was in front of her. She ran her hands up from her waist, tracing the outline of her ribs to finally land back on her *****. She then slowly lowered her mouth to take one of the achingly aroused nipples into her mouth, tracing her tongue around the areola, finally closing her lips around the hardened nub, sucking on it with all she had. She then took as much of her breast into her mouth as she could, repeating the same sucking motion, wanting to devour as much of Bette as was physically possible.

Bettes efforts to find an opening into Tinas dress had been halted by this attack on her body. She didnt think that she had ever been as aroused in her life as she was at this point in time. Her knees were beginning to weaken and her ***** was begging for attention.

T she said.

Not getting a response as Tina had moved onto her other breast, Bette gently nudged her head with her hand to where Tina finally looked up.

What baby? she worriedly asked, searching Bettes eyes for a problem.

I think that I need to sit down she shakily answered.

Yeah? suggestively asked Tina, knowing the state of arousal that Bette was in.

Yeah smiled Bette.

Tina turned both of them towards the bed. Once they were standing right beside it, she slowly reached down to Bettes buckle. While never looking away from Bette, she loosened it and then unbuttoned her pants. She slowly lowered the zipper and then while moving down her body, pushed them down from her waist. Her head was now at eye level with the waistband of Bettes panties. Her pants were sitting at a pool around her ankles, for now, forgotten by Tina.

Tina inhaled deeply, smelling Bettes arousal. She leaned her forehead against Bettes waist and just continued to breathe her scent in. Her mouth was beginning to water at just the thought of being able to taste what was at this time, wreaking havoc on her senses.

She placed her hands on either side of Bettes hips, toying with the elastic strap that was holding up the thin material of her panties. She heard Bette panting above her and knew that neither woman was going to be able to last much longer.

Pulling her forehead off of her waist, she determinedly and swiftly pulled her underwear down, allowing them to join her pants on the floor.

With no barriers, Bettes scent was now free to fill Tinas nostrils in full. She looked up at Bette and the site before her left her breathless. Bette was almost shaking she was so aroused. Tina had not seen this Bette in she didnt know how long and the image was enough to almost make her come right there.

After freeing Bettes ankles from the discarded clothing, she stood up, her face a mere inch from Bettes. She rested her hands on the cheeks of Bettes bare ***** and began to knead them.

Bettes moaning in response told Tina everything that she needed to know. It was time.

She took a step away from Bette and reached to her side to unzip her own dress. She had Bettes full attention as she saw the flare of arousal in Bettes eyes as the dress fell to the floor, exposing Tinas completely nude body.

Bette took a step towards Tina, closing the gap between the two of them.

Jesus Christ, Tina she haggardly whispered into Tina as she took her into her arms.

Their nude bodies were both shivering in desire as Tina began to push Bette backwards towards the bed. When the back of Bettes legs made contact with the bed, she simply sat down, placing her hands on Tinas waist. She looked up at Tina as Tina looked down at her. Tina ran her hands lovingly through Bettes hair as Bette reached up from her waist to cup her *****.

It has been so long Bette whispered, finally allowing her hands to fondle her nipples and *****.

Too long Tina breathlessly whispered in return, trying to calm her body away from the edge of an ***** that she knew was not far away.

Bette returned her hands back to Tinas waist, and gently tugged on her, indicating Tina to join her.

As Bette scooted back, Tina bent down and straddled Bettes lap. As Tina separated her legs to put one on either side of Bettes, Bette immediately smelled Tina and the aroma caused her to gasp.

Tina could smell herself and this simply caused her own arousal to escalate. The two women began to grind into each other as their mouths desperately fought for control over the other.

Tina knew how close she was to coming and so drew her mouth quickly away from Bettes. She pushed herself off of Bettes lap as Bette looked at her in wonderment.

What are you doing, T? she hoarsely asked.

Lay back she commanded, trying to catch her breath.

Seeing Bette hesitate, she directly said, Bette, you heard me.

Reading the determined expression on Tinas face, Bette did as told. She moved back on the bed, resting her head against the pillows.

Tina watched Bette do as she had instructed and for some reason, it totally turned her on knowing that she had this control over her. It was not often that Tina was able to yield control over Bette, but when she wished to, especially while making love, Bette always without falter, gave into her.

She slowly joined Bette on the bed, crawling up her body, eyes never leaving the other as she made her way so that they were finally face to face.

Both saw the intense desire etched on the others face and knew that neither of them would be able to last much longer. Tina leaned down and gave Bette a searing kiss, reminding Bette that she belonged to her and no one else.

As she kissed her, she arched her back, digging her ***** into Bettes own. They both gasped into the others mouth as they felt the sensitive nubs make contact. Both began to rub rhythmically against the other, the liquid heat being emitted from their bodies making the motion effortless.

Tina knew that if she did not stop this right now, both would come and she didnt want that yet. She wanted to touch Bette, taste her and be inside of her.

She peeled her body off of Bettes who was trying to grab her hips to get her to stay.

Tina, please begged Bette, as she tried to roll Tina over and control the pace.

No Bette! she hissed, grabbing her wrists and forcing her back onto the bed. No! she repeated into her ear.

Bettes eyes were tightly closed as she decided to let Tina fully control this situation. She knew that it was pointless to try and take over so would just let her have her way.

Tina watched with satisfaction Bette accept that she was not in control. She leaned over her and began to suck on the lobe of her ear while her hands began to freely roam Bettes body.

She used one hand to separate Bettes legs while she placed the other behind her shoulders, almost cupping her upper body.

While her tongue continued its careful attention to Bettes ear, dipping it in and out, dragging it around the sensitive rim, she ran her hand up the length of her leg. She started at her calf and slowly trailed her fingertips over her knee, moving inside her thigh where she felt the muscles jump in sensitivity.

She looked at Bettes face and saw her eyes still tightly closed in absolute pleasure, and watched her chest heave up and down in arousal.

As she reached about halfway up the inside of Bettes thigh, she felt the wetness that had escaped her lips and had made its way down her legs.

Jesus Bette she exhaled into her ear. You are so ***** wet.

Bette said nothing in response, just separated her legs even wider to give Tina the access that they both wanted her to have.

Tina continued her journey north to where the slippery sensation on the inside of her thighs increased.

Tina was finding it difficult to find her own breath as her heart was pounding in her chest. She was now running her tongue up and down Bettes jaw, trying to taste as much of her as possible.

Her hand intentionally moved over to Bettes other leg, not reaching her center, causing Bette to moan in frustration. She was now moving her hips, thrusting them in the air in hopes of capturing Tinas hand between her hungry lips.

Her hand repeated the journey just taken on Bettes other leg. Feeling the same wetness as before, Tina gasped into Bettes ear, knowing that she was not going to be able to stop its journey this time.

God, I love you so much, baby! she breathlessly declared to Bette. She pulled her head back away from Bettes so she could see her reaction when she finally reached her center.

Tina allowed her hand to keep traveling up between Bettes legs. Her hips were still slightly rocking in anticipation and her breath was coming in gasps.

Please, T she begged.

Shhh, baby. Im going to take care of you she reassured her.

Her hand reached Bettes outer lips and the wetness that greeted her was literally breath taking. She drew her middle finger between Bettes swollen lips and felt all of the hot liquid spill out between them. Tina continued to watch Bette, her arm around her shoulder grasping her tighter.

Bettes hips continued to move up and down, begging Tina to fully come in contact with her.

Watching Bettes body was almost more than Tina could take. She looked down the length of it, saw her chest heaving, ***** glistening with perspiration, hips thrusting in need.

*****, baby she hissed. You are so ***** hot she said into Bettes ear, as she finally made contact with Bettes *****. Both women gasped at the sensation, Tinas hand starting to pick up rhythm against the swollen nub, hard as a rock, needing this attention.

Bettes hips began moving in pace with Tinas hand, both finding it difficult to breathe. Tina ran her finger up and down the sides of her *****, slowly tracing circles against the very end of it, and then allowing her finger to fall down the top peak to the other side where she would repeat her actions.

Oh God, T Bette managed to get out between broken gasps. Im so close.

Tina looked down her lovers body, and knew that she was telling the truth.

She slowed her hand, and the removed it entirely from her *****.

God damnit, Tina Bette cried. Please, baby

With that, and without warning, Tina slid three fingers deeply inside of Bette while passionately declaring, You are mine, Bette Porter. Do you understand? All ***** mine!

She watched as Bette failed to breath, the vein at her neck pounding, begging for air. Her hips froze in mid air as her insides grew to the necessary size to accept Tinas hand. Tina was absolutely still as she watched Bettes body becoming re-accustomed to her hand.

Bette slowly dropped her hips, and took in a deep breath. That was the indication that Tina was waiting for. She slowly began to move her hand in and out of Bette as her hips matched the motion, rising up to meet her hand to take it in as deeply as Bettes walls would allow.

Bette began to writhe on the bed, her head rolling back and forth on the pillow as Tina grasped her shoulders even harder. She used them almost as a point of leverage to push Bettes body down even harder onto her hand, forcing her to take as much of her as possible.

She looked down at her hand and saw that each time it disappeared between Bettes lips, it came out even wetter. She had to turn away because if she continued to watch this, she knew that it would drive her over the edge.

She returned her eyes to Bettes face which was becoming twisted in pleasure. She felt the walls of muscle that her hand was sliding past, in and out of, begin to tighten around her fingers. Knowing Bettes body as she did, she knew that Bette was about to come.

Baby Tina tried to speak in her ear. I want you to come. I want you to come for me Bette.

She quickened her pace and looking at Bettes face, reached her thumb up to her *****, pressing down on the tip of it while moving it from side to side.

Oh God Bette gasped as her hips reached high into the air.

Oh God she repeated. Im going to come, Tina. Im going to come she gasped.

Never letting up from her pace, Tina felt Bettes muscles slam down on her fingers, making movement very difficult as they tried to capture her prisoner inside. She continued to move her thumb though freely around Bettes *****, getting as much out of this ***** as Bettes body would give her.

The ***** that took ownership of Bette was like nothing that she had ever experienced before. She was made breathless by it, mind, body and spirit frozen in time. She didnt know if she was breathing, didnt even know where she was for that matter. She had no voice and so could not begin to release the emotions flowing like a current through her body in anything other than moans, screams and then finallysobs.

Tina looked down at Bette and saw this transformation pass over her face. All three sounds that were coming from her body were so guttural and primal, that at first, Tina was not sure how to read them.

With the last though, she knew that Bette had returned to her, knew that she was finally and completely hers again.

She slowly pulled her hand out of Bette and with her other still around her shoulders, rolled Bette on top of her.

Shhh, its ok, baby she soothingly whispered to her. Its ok she continued, trying to calm her.

Let it all out, baby. Im right here, youre safe with me. Youre gonna be fine, baby. She was rubbing her hands up and down her back, holding her tightly as the sobs began to subside.

*****, T she exhaled into her neck.

Tina placed her hands on either side of Bettes head, pulling her back so that she could look into her eyes.

Once Bette opened her eyes, the first thing that she saw was Tina smiling up at her reassuringly.

I dont know what to say, T whispered Bette.

Who says you have to say anything? asked Tina, raising an eyebrow for emphasis.

You ***** amaze me, T. I hope you know that she said, lowering her head to Tinas, slowly running her tongue over Tinas lips.

Sojust to be on the safe side, why dont you show me? asked Tina suggestively.

Oh, dont you worry growled Bette, I plan on doing just that, T
