"So, I’ll pick you up in the morning? Say ten minutes earlier than when I found you this morning?"
Tina smiled shyly and melted Bette’s heart. "Yeah." She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "I’ll… see you tomorrow."
Both hesitated, as if they were waiting for something to happen. It was dark and silent outside, only the crickets could be heard.
Finally, Bette gave Tina a kiss on her cheek. "See you."
"See you," Tina whispered. Bette walked away and Tina stood watching until she had reached the street and got in her car. Bette waved, Tina waved back, turned around, closed the door and did a happy dance, much like Katherine Heigl’s in ‘The Ugly Truth’.
When she came back in the living room, she was elated. She started cleaning up, not even knowing she was humming.
"You’re so into her," Dean said.
Tina smiled widely.
"She’s so into you," he said.
"I know," Tina said the last word in exaggerated way. Boy, life could be great.

The following few weeks, Bette and Tina spent more and more time together. They didn’t exactly do it on purpose, it just seemed to happen. Dean soon made his own friends at school. At first, hanging out with Bette and Tina had been fun. Lately, however, they only had eye for each other and were flirting all the time. They ignored everything and everyone around them and he really felt like the fifth wheel.
Bette’s friends were also noticing how absent the brunette was. She was always hurried at breakfast in The Planet. They all knew that if she had the guts to disappoint her friends, she wouldn’t go anymore.
Tina’s car was repared by now, but she still went to school with Bette. The story was that her mother needed the car because his had broken down. Tina’s parents thought that Bette was just Tina’s best friend whom she hung out with a lot. Bette got along very well with Nancy and Dan Kennard. She tried to bring down the flirting to a minimum when they were there because 1) it’d embarrass the hell out of her and 2) she didn’t want Tina’s parents to be on to something. Her own father had met Tina once by accident. Tina was at Bette’s place when he suddenly came home to pick something up. Melvin Porter had barely acknowledged Tina – he had nodded at her and then disappeared into his room.

Ok I think it’s time for a little kiss. They both obviously want it. PPS
Nice chapter) I liked the joke about Vista – it’s truly scary)
Arghhhh! Such a tease. Can’t wait for the next one. Pps
Great update G! Had to LMAO at the Vista comment. I think Bette showed incredible restraint with Tina’s twins in her face. LOL.
Oh I too think it is time for a kiss. And, Ms. Tina knew exactly what she was doing leaning over Bette and making her drool and put her face right in the middle of Tinas’ girls. Been there, knows how Bette feels, beat me with’em. lol(my favorite expression). Great update. Thanks for posting.
