Fire and Ice Chapter 32
April 1999
The Saab slowly pulled into the valet of Cafe La Boheme in West Hollywood. Tina stood from her seat to the pavement, being graciously assisted by the gloved hand of the car porter.
"Welcome to Cafe La Boheme, ladies." The valet exchanged a ticket for Bette’s keys, smiling at both women pleasantly. Bette shot a look to Tina over the hood of the car only to find the blonde staring towards the restaurant in amazement. The valet bowed his head, extending his arm toward the entrance.
Tina’s walk was slow and deliberate, her eyes feasting on the beatuiful grounds of the restaurant.
"Oh my god, Bette. I’ve wanted to try this place for ages….I just never had the opportunity…" Tina trailed off, looking at Bette’s profile as they walked towards the front door.
Bette turned to face Tina, a wide smile on her face. "Well, here’s your opportunity." Bette nodded politely to Tina, allowing her to proceed before her.
"Have you been here before?" Tina asked as Bette opened the door for her. The gesture was so fluid yet deeply significant. Tina couldn’t help but smile.
"Uh, no. This is my first time too…" Bette answered, aware of the irony of her admission. Never before had she felt so strongly for a woman…much less a woman she barely knew…and as of 24 hours ago was still straight…
Bette shook her head to break apart her meandering thoughts, instead concentrating on the glow surrounding Tina’s delicate features.
"Good evening. Your name?" The maitre ‘d stated rather than asked, allowing no room for guests without reservations.
"Yes, it’s Porter…for two." Bette looked at Tina the entire time, ignoring the brashness of the uptight employee.
"Ah. Yes." The maitre ‘d’s tone quickly became more accomodating as he realized in the reservation notes with whom he was dealing with. "Please. Allow me to show you to your table."
The tall gentlemen began leading the women through the dining room, Tina’s mouth dropping a little more each step they took.
The walls were bathed in soft crimson, contrasting the deeper red plush couches that surrounded the bar area. Several couples in business attire lounged casually in the softness of the retreat, the candlelite further illuminating the velvet richness of the furniture. People stopped and stared as the two women confidently strode behind the maitre ‘d, their eyes glued to the hopelessly sexy women owning the room.

When Eric caught Bette and Tina “just looking” at each other and he knew it, it reminded me of when Tina caught Bette and Candace just looking at each other and “just knew it”. Ooow, dreadful thought *shakes head and smacks self*. Another fabulous update Fire…I feel a sizzle coming on!

“We now find ourselves smack dab in the middle of b & t’s first date. again, expect delays. these two need to take it slow, don’t you think? after all, rome wasn’t built in a day…” => LMAO! Sorry, firestarter, I just found your warning too funny. *snort* I’ve learned how to deal with the delays, the stops and starts in this slooow burn story. I’m glad they’re talking and processing the recent events and changes though. I wonder what the heat from the shot of bourbon will do to them? Thanks as always, firestarter, and pls post without delay if you can. :>

Rome was built in several decades,lol oh boy this is gonna be a long story,lol… enjoying it.. love their banter..:)PPS

Maybe these two shouldn’t drink at all when they are together…the heat between them is enough..thanks for the date…can’t wait for more
Ok, so you’re preparing us for a date that will span the next 15-20 chapters, right??? LOL I agree they should take things slow. I’m loving the sexual tension, but also the obvious feelings they share for each other in such a short time period. Bring on the heat! PPS
That was great and they are sweet. Please post more, thanks!
