“Oh, baby…I love you so much, too.”

Bette moved closer and they held each other for a while, finding comfort and strength in the simple touch. They made love all night…slowly, gently…and fell asleep in each other arms, as they usually did.

After a few hours of rest, Tina turned around in Bette’s arms and smiled in the dark, even though Bette couldn’t see her face. “There’s nowhere else I’d rather be,” she whispered, not sure if Bette was still asleep.

Bette turned her head slightly so her lips were only a breath away from Tina’s and whispered back, “Nowhere but here.” Tina smiled again and moved closer, finding Bette’s lips in the darkness, savoring their softness and taste. Slow and gentle at first, the kiss quickly turned into a passionate plea for connection, closeness and release.

Bette moved on top of her lover, her hand reaching for the familiar sweet spot between Tina’s legs. The brunette moaned with pleasure, finding Tina wet and ready for her.

“Oh, baby, right there…” Tina arched her back in need, her eyes closed as the multitude of sensations and feelings erupted deep inside of her body. Tina knew she wouldn’t last long if Bette continued with touching and caressing her where she needed it the most. “Baby, I need you…I need you so much.”

“I’m right here, Tina…and always will be,” Bette replied softly, leaning for another kiss, devouring Tina’s lips with passion and desire.

“I love you…” Tina moaned, unable to speak as the heat of their lovemaking spread to her feet and she knew she her release was fast approaching.

“Oh, baby…I’m so close…” Bette heard the unspoken plea in Tina’s voice and swiftly moved lower, her lips replacing her fingers as she began licking and sucking. The release came almost instantly as Tina screamed from the intensity and pleasure, her head falling back on the pillow, her body weak and completely satisfied.

Bette took Tina into her arms, her own body singing in excitement. Tina moaned again as the heat and perspiration of their bodies connected, creating another wave of desire.

“Give me a minute, baby,” Tina whispered weakly, still unable to move.
