Bette’s POV:

After Tina and I both came, I rolled off Tina and we both were gasping for air.  I looked at Tina will adoring eyes as she was getting her breathing pattern back in check. I said panting, "I am so glad that you found out that I was the dark panther." You gazed at me and said, "So am I." I kissed her softly and snuggled next to her body, "You’ll never have to worry about being lonely again." Tina said, "Thank fucking god!" A few minutes later, we were both sound asleep. The next morning, I woke up and found the bed empty, so I slipped on a robe that was hanging on the back of Tina’s door and I went to look for her.  She was in the kitchen, making breakfast of the both of us and when she saw me, she gave me that sweet grin of hers. She said enthusiastically, "Good morning, sweetheart." I came up to her and wrapped my arms around her waist, nuzzling my face in her hair and said, "Good morning, my love. How did you sleep?" Tina answered, "Great since I’ve slept with the only woman that I can ever possibly love now, how about you?" I nibbled on Tina’s ear and replied gleefully, "Fucking terrific since I am also sleeping with the woman that I can only love completely." Tina gave out a cute little giggle as I was nibbling on her ear and neck.  Tina giggled, "Behave or I am going to burn breakfast for my B!"  I pulled away and asked, "What are you making for breakfast, sweetie?" Tina replied, "I am making bacon & eggs, with buttered toast and coffee." I said, "You didn’t have to go through that trouble, T!" You gazed up at me and smile sweetly at me,

"It’s no trouble for you, B. Nothing is too good for you because you are my woman." Tears formed in my eyes when she told me that because I’ve wanted her to tell me that all along and she finally did!

Tina’s POV:

I noticed the tears welling up in Bette’s eyes and a smile appeared on her face after I told her that she was my woman.  For a moment, I pulled away from the stove and wrapped my arms around Bette and said, "You are a very special woman and I am lucky to have you." Bette squeezed me and said softly, "I am so fucking lucky to have and I love you with all my being." I pulled away and said, "Likewise babe, now let’s sit and enjoy our breakfast together." I served breakfast for the both of us and we sat at the table, eating in silence yet our gazes said everything. Sipping on my coffee, I said, "You know since we’ve become more than lovers, I think it’s not a good idea that I am your supervisor anymore." Bette munched on her toast and replied, "I know and I think I’ll give my two weeks notice there this week." I gave her a wink and a sly smile, "But I will give you a letter of recommendation and much more!" Bette grinned back at me and said, "You gave me a recommendation alright, last night in the bedroom!" I replied back, "And it was fantastic, my dark lover you!"
