Tina stood up, extended her hand to Bette.   They went inside and left the stars and the moon to guide the night into morning.

Saturday arrived in typical LA fashion with the sun burning through and lifting the haze of the new day. 

Tina had been up for her umpteenth trip to pee.  Plus the little one was really doing kicking practice or it was just bad cramps.  Here back was bothering her this morning also.  She walked over to Bettes side of the bed and sat down.   She looked at her bandaged, casted and bandaged lover and sighed.   Thinking about last nights lovemaking by the pool brought a smile to her face and she placed her fingers gently on Bettes cheek, not to wake her.

Bette opened one eye, then the other.  Hey, T.

Morning, babe.

Last nightit was.. Bette let out a sigh.

Yeah, I knowit was wow.

Thats the only word I can put to it, too.Wow.  Bette kissed Tinas hand.  I feel very blessed to have you with me, T.  I love you.

I love you, too, baby.  How about some breakfast?  Listen, I went to the kitchen to put coffee on and I saw your answering machine blinking, just so you know.  I remember how you often would walk right by it and miss calls for days.

Yeah, Im like that.  Breakfast sounds good.  See whats in the fridge.  If not too much, Ill run out and get some things or well go out to eat at The Planet and pick up some things on the way home to have on hand.  Hows that?  Ill go check the messages.
