Wherever you may be,
And I’ll lead you all in the dance,’ said he.”
Alice led her group through tight curves around the tables. “C’mon. It’s fun. Right, Tasha.”
Tasha laughed with her great laugh and the reluctant diners could not resist.
“Dance, then, wherever you may be.
‘I am the lord of the dance’ said he.
‘And I’ll lead you all,
Wherever you may be,
And I’ll lead you all in the dance,’ said he.”
Eventually, everyone in The Planet was in one of the snaking lines, or singing loudly, or smiling broadly, or pretending to be smiling broadly.
“Dance, then, wherever you may be.
‘I am the lord of the dance’ said he.
‘And I’ll lead you all,
Wherever you may be,
And I’ll lead you all in the dance,’ said he.”
As everyone walked home that night, or brushed their teeth, or rubbed the sleep from their eyes in the morning, or any of those things or others during the next day, or week, even in June or October, the infectious tune would spring to mind. The happy, good feeling remained.
##
Early morning
The tune played in Bette’s head as she remembered.
She felt Tina stir slightly and stilled her own movements so that she wouldn’t wake the tired blonde. Sometime after midnight, Tina had sent Bette to bed after the potty-mouthed frustrated brunette had muttered “fuck” for the tenth time. Tina had finished their tasks on her own and had crawled into bed an hour after Bette had. They had snuggled into each other during the night and Bette was now on her back with Tina’s body draped along her left side. She smiled as she looked at the younger woman.
“Hey,” a sleepy voice muttered from a face that barely moved.
“Hey,” Bette whispered.
“What time is it?”
“6:45.”
Tina snuggled closer to Bette, “Too early.”
“Go back to sleep.” Bette could feel Tina’s muscles begin to relax, but then stop.
Tina lifted her head, “Why are you awake?”
Bette just smiled and shrugged slightly, “I’m happy.”
“Yeah?”
“Yeah. You. Angelica. Here. All of it.”
“Good. I’m happy too.”
They smiled at one another for a few quiet moments, interrupted when they both heard a small creak followed by very light footsteps.
Bette and Tina both started to sit up, smiling ever more broadly at one another while they focused their hearing.
“Mamas! Mamas! He was here! Santa was here!” Pounding feet had come closer and closer until the door burst open.
“Hurry Mamas!”
Angelica grabbed a hand of each of her mothers and tried to tug them from bed.
Tina tilted her head and asked Bette, “Still happy?”
“Forever.”

That was just as amazing and beautiful like your other stories. I have so missed your talented writing on this site. Can this be a possible return to the forum. I have so missed the “the wolve” story- “Backstory”. I was hoping that this was a version of that, but I am just as happy with the one I got.
