Smiling, loving the surprised look on Bettes face, but loving even more her outfit, Tina said,

I brought you dinner but if you are busy she finished, looking down at Bettes wet feet.

Sureno, I meancome on inam sorryII was talking a bath mumbled Bette, still astonish by Tinas visit.

You take long baths Tina said, following Bettes wet path drew on the wooden floor.

YeahBette mumbled, blushing a little IIm going to put something on she added rushing to the bathroom.

Dont do it for me whispered Tina to herself watching Bettes back moving away

Bette put on a silk robe on her wet body and after briefly drying her hair with a towel she walked back to the kitchen finding Tina setting up the food.

I brought you Italian food, I guessed it was almost a sure beteverybody likes Italian, right?

Right, I love Italian nodded Bette.

You want something to drink? She asked Tina Im going to have some wine she added, taking a bottle of red wine.

Ill have water, thank you said Tina, setting the table

Ok mumbled Bette, filling her glass.

Watching Bette, noticing how the robe was glued to her skin, Tina gulped, shaking her head.

You ok? Bette asked, noticing Tinas gesture.

Yeah, yeah Tina said, assuring herself more than Bette.

You changed Bette said pointing at Tinas outfit.

“Yeah, I went to Yoga classneeded to clear my mind

“Oh” Bette whispered.

“Yeah, had to think about the shooting Tina said, serving Bette spaghettis.

Did it work? asked Bette.

Nodding, her mouth full with spaghettis, Tina observed Bette. The kitchens light was drawing on her face, the robe was leaving just the right amount of skin to breath, making difficult for Tina not to stare. Bettes hair was still wet, seductively falling down her shoulders, caressing her cheeks.

Bette, quietly enjoying the food was observing Tina too. They were looking at each others like animals during mate season. Their silence was speaking volumes, telling the stories they were writing in their minds. They were quietly enjoying their meals, smiling at each other. Finishing the meal, Bette smiled again and taking the glass of wine, she finally said, looking Tina in the eyes.

This was great Tina thank you very muchIts been a while since I had something so goodlast time was at your place I think she finished, sipping the wine.

Am glad you like it Tina said, nonchalantly taking Bettes glass of wine to take a sip, something that didnt go unnoticed to Bette, putting a smile on her face.

Ill clean thiswhy dont you get the ice cream and wait for me in the living room said Bette taking the plates.

Ice cream? You have ice cream? asked Tina smiling like a kid.

Of course!…I might not have food but ice cream?is one of the five basic aliments of my diet! Bette answered, theatrically handing the ice cream to Tina.

Smiling, grinning like a fool, Tina nodded, so many things she wanted to say just by noticing Bettes incredible body under the robe.

You sure dont want me to help you here? she added instead.

Sure! It will only be a minute you brought the food, Ill clean this ok Bette said.

Ok smiled Tina heading to the living room.

Sitting on the floor, resting her head on the couch, Tina closed her eyes, remembering her yoga class.

She decided to go to Yoga after spending almost an hour laying at her couch, trying to think about Sandras shooting. Nothing was coming to her mind and she was getting anxious.

She drove all the way to the Yoga Center and without checking the board she entered her usual class only to find out, once she was inside, that Tuesdays were Meditation class. Shes never been too fond of meditation, the times shed tried it she fell asleep wakening up later with a horrible neck pain and a drooling gift on her t-shirt front. Looking around, feeling the calmness, the peaceful mood, the light darkness she decided to give it a chance.
Extending her mat she sat down. She closed her eyes and after a deep sigh she thought about her mantra. A word, think about a word!…ok Oceanthats a good word for a mantra she thought to herself. Ok, now, I have the word……Oceanwhy did I chose that word?…is because of the sound?…Oooocceannn. spelling it slow it sounds funny leaves your tongue kind of numb mmm OOOOceanokOoocean.Oooceanhmmm…its been a while since Ive been to the ocean last time I went with Paolo it was in Capri right?…right It was Capri that was nice but of course its always nice with himuh, ohokmantra, my mantra.OoooceanOocean.ooceanmmm.the OceanI want to go to lay on the beach…the sun caressing your bodyId ask Bette if she wants to come with me maybe we could go this weekend am sure she looks great in a bikini she has beautiful bones yeah and ok, okk Tina Stop thinking!! Back to your mantra!! OK, OKmy mantra mantra Hmmm maybe my mantra should be MantraI keep saying it much more than Ocean Maaantraaaaaaa….it comes easily should I change my mantra? Is this allow?…should I ask somebody?.
Opening one eye Tina looked around, checking the class. Everybody was deep lost in their mediation making impossible to move and whispered her doubts. Feeling self-conscious, she decided to stand up and quietly leave as she was getting nowhere and was pretty sure that if she tried again she was going to fall asleep.

Just as she was walking back to her bike, Bette called her, and after talking with her, Tina decided that just as well she could have dinner with her, maybe that way her head could clear.


But then, just now, as she was resting her head on the couch she felt Bettes presence walking towards her. Even with her eyes closed she could perfectly see Bettes image, the way she was looking wearing that silky robe.

Hey, did you leave any ice cream for me? teasingly asked Bette sitting on the couch.

Opening her eyes Tina looked up at Bette. Nodding, she smiled.

I was waiting for you she said moving to the couch.

Taking the ice cream, Bette said,

Hmmm, its almost melted I love it this way heretake some she said handing Tina her spoon filled with melted caramel ice cream.

Opening her mouth Tina looked Bette in the eyes. Looking at Bette, Tina thought that it was the best caramel ice cream ever. But as she was enjoying it she noticed the look in Bettes eyes. They were so deep, so bright that Tina felt goose pumps all over her back. After gulping, she heard herself whispering.

Will you do something for me? Her tone flirting with just the right amount of need to make Bettes interest more than obvious.

Sure Bette answered, leaning forward, the robe opening a bit further showing not only her perfectly shape legs but Bettes chest too.

Will you let me take your picture Tina whispered leaving the ice cream box on the coffee table.

Sure, tomorrow morning is fine, I have a meeting in the afternoon, but in the morning am free answered a clueless Bette, happy to help.

Moving closer to Bette, Tina whispered,

NoI mean, now She said tracing her finger lightly along Bettes knee.

Now? asked a confused Bette, looking down at her outfit, unaware of covering her chest with the robe.

Now whispered Tina, sweetly removing Bettes hand from her robe.

“You look beautiful in that robe you know? II need to photograph you now please? begged Tina, melting Bettes insides with her tone.

Oook she managed to mumble, not sure where she was getting into.

Nodding, with a pleased smiled on her face Tina leaned forward to kiss Bettes lips.
