Dinner at the Kennard house had been filled with laughter, and Angelica was revelling in having the attention of both her mothers at once. True to her word, Bette had attempted to steal chips from Tina's plate when she had finished her own, and had been rewarded with a slap on the wrist for her troubles.
The three of them cleared the table and were doing the dishes together in the kitchen, with Tina washing and Angie attempting to help Bette to dry and put away.
"Momma T?" piped up the little girl.
"Yes honey?"
"Is Momma B in trouble?"
The blonde laughed "Your Momma B is always in trouble"
"Hey!" exclaimed the brunette.
Grinning wickedly, Bette flicked the blondes arse with the tea towel she was holding before sprinting off into the living room.
"That's it Porter!" Tina yelled as she and Angelica gave chase.
Of course, the brunette really wanted to be caught, allowing herself to be pinned to the sofa by the blonde. Keen to get her own back, Tina proceeded to tickle the brunette, causing her to squirm beneath her.
"Ok ok, I give!"
"What do you say?" the blonde looked down at the flushed brunette as she straddled her hips.
"So-rry" Bette sang out, sticking out her tongue.
"What do you think Angie, is that enough of an apology?" Tina asked their daughter.
"Nope" Angie shook her head, giggling at her mothers.
Bette sat up so that her face was by the blondes neck and she looked up at her "Queen Tina, I most humbly apologise for my indiscretion and I grovel at your feet. Please be merciful in your punishment"
Tina laughed and kissed the brunette on the forehead, causing Bette to pout.
"What's the matter?"
"I want a proper one" the brunette sulked.
Rolling her eyes, the blonde leant down and planted a chaste kiss on Bette's lips.
"You can have a proper one when we don't have an audience" she whispered.
The brunette groaned inwardly, knowing that she had to keep her libido in check whilst their daughter was still awake.
At Angie's insistence they played three rounds of Go Fish. The little girl won the first round, and her blonde mother the latter two. Once again, Bette was sulking.
"I think your Momma B is being a sore loser again" Tina teased.
"I know" nodded Angie "sometimes I have to let her win or she gets sad"
Tina raised her eyebrows at Bette "Elizabeth Porter, do not tell me that our daughter actually has to let her supposedly adult mother win at games so that she doesn't sulk?"
"Ok then, I won't" Bette folded her arms.
"You are unbelievable" the blonde reprimanded.
"You always loved my competitive streak" the brunette pointed out.
"True" mused the blonde, pulling Bette's head into her lap "but maybe you should learn to be a bit more of a gracious loser when you're around our daughter"
"Yes Momma, be a gray…gray…gray-shoos loser" scolded Angie, mimicking her mother's tone.
The two women had to giggle at their daughter and pulled her in to them so that they were in family hug.
"Angie?"
"Yes Momma B?"
"You know I love you and your Momma more than anything in the whole world don't you?"
"More than chocolate?!" the little girl asked wide eyed.
Bette laughed "Yes, even more than chocolate"
"More than art?"
"Yep, more than art"
"More than Jodi?"
The brunette felt Tina freeze at their daughters question, while the little girl remained oblivious. Bette looked up from her position in Tina's lap and her eyes met the blondes.
"Much, much more than Jodi"
"Right Angie it's time for bed" Tina's voice shook slightly as she slid out from under the brunettes head, unable to make eye contact any more.
The little girl tried to protest, but eventually made her way to her room and got herself ready for bed with the assistance of both of her mothers. After several rounds of goodnight cuddles and kisses the two women left Angie to fall asleep. They returned to the sofa but sat in silence, both contemplating what they should say.
"T…" "Bette…" they both started simultaneously.
"You first" offered the blonde.
"T…what I said yesterday, and today, I meant it. I love you, I really do"
"Why do I sense there's a but coming?" Tina asked hesitantly.
"No buts T. This is it for me….you're it for me…"
"But what about Jodi?"
"I have to do what's right. Not just for me, but for Angie and….well, for you. I was so scared of doing the wrong thing, of messing this all up. But under all that fear, all that uncertainty, one thing never goes away. And that's the fact that I love you. I always have"
The blonde sighed and took Bette's hands in hers "You don't know how long I've waited to hear you say that"
A tear ran down the brunettes cheek "It's always been you T. I tried so hard to find someone else, I thought if I could at least be happy in a relationship then I'd get by. I thought I loved Jodi, but what I feel for her pales into insignificance when compared to how I feel about you"
"Bette…I don't want to be the other woman. I don't think I can handle being your bit on the side"
"T you could never be that. I…I'm going to end things with Jodi"
"Really?" the blondes eyes lit up.
"I need you to know, Jodi and I…"
"Bette, I really don't want to hear about her" Tina interrupted.
"Please hear me out. I've barely seen or spoken to her since you and I…you know…and we haven't been intimate in a long time"
"Sshh" Tina silenced her with a kiss "it's ok. Let's just focus on us"
"I like the way you think" the brunette smiled.
"Babe…" the blonde took a deep breath, looking deep into her lovers eyes "I've never stopped loving you. No matter how much hurt we caused each other, I couldn't help but love you. I tried so hard to hate you, I did and said some unforgiveable things because I thought if I hurt you enough, I could change the way I felt. But no matter how damn hard I tried, the love was still there. And seeing you with Jodi, it killed me Bette"
"I never knew. You helped me win her back!"
"You had to make your own decisions babe. But inside I was screaming 'Pick me, pick me!'. I swear to god it was one of the hardest things I ever did" the blonde admitted.
Bette scooched over and took the blondes face in her hands.
"I pick you" she breathed, kissing her tenderly "I pick you, I pick you, I pick you"
"I love you. More than ever, I really do" Tina whispered.
Clutching at the blondes neck, the brunette kissed her hungrily. Their mouths seperated as they rested their foreheads together.
"You have my heart T. Please, take my body"
Tina moaned and got to her feet, practically dragging the eager brunette to her bedroom. Their lips met again as the blonde moved to unbutton Bette's shirt, casting it aside before letting her hands roam over the muscular torso before her. The brunette moved her hands to the blondes waist, trying to lift her top in an attempt to even up the clothing situation, but Tina was having none of it.
"Nuh uh" she shook her head "you asked me to take your body, so I'm taking it"
The brunette could only whimper in response as Tina's mouth attached itself to her neck. She felt a pair of hands move to unbutton her pants, and she was more than willing to kick them off. Those familiar hands wrapped around her body, unhooking her bra with ease as the blondes mouth feasted on her neck.
Bette could do nothing except stand there and let the blonde undress her. There was noone else that she would give herself to so willingly.
Tina ran her hands down the brunettes front, brushing over her pertruding nipples. Hearing her lover groan, she kissed her deeply as she began to massage her breasts. Bette couldn't control herself, her fingers gripping the blondes hips.
"Oh no you don't" warned Tina "you keep your hands to yourself"
The brunette sighed and clenched her hands into fists by her sides. Tina kissed her way down the brunettes chest, getting down onto her knees. She then turned her attention to the one remaining item of clothing. Placing soft kisses across Bette's hips, the blonde hooked her fingers under the lacy underwear that was before her eyes and slid it down to the floor. Bette stepped out of it and the blonde got to her feet, admiring the sight before her.
In that moment, Tina felt more powerful than she ever had before. The brunette looked so vulnerable stood there naked before her. And god what a beautiful sight that was.
She stepped in and placed her hands on Bette's hips, taking her time kissing her. Both women moaned as their tongues brushed and the brunette could feel herself shivering in anticipation of the pleasure that she knew the blonde would give her.
"Do you trust me?" Tina breathed.
"Completely"
"Good. I want you on all fours on the bed" the blonde commanded.
"T?" Bette asked nervously.
"I'm gonna take you like you've never been taken before" growled Tina.
"Oh fuck" murmured the brunette.
Despite her hesitations, Bette did as she was told. She was giving up every ounce of control to the blonde, and it was a symbolic moment for her. However, it was also unbelievably erotic. She trusted Tina with every part of her being, and this was the moment were she truly gave herself to the blonde.
Tina watched intently as the brunette crawled onto the bed, remaining on her hands and knees. She turned her head to look back at the blonde, and that was all the confirmation she needed. Her pupils were dilated, and Tina knew that look. It was one of utter arousal and love.
The blonde moved to the bed, kneeling up behind the bent over brunette. She ran her hands freely over the magnificent arse that was before, giving it all the adulation that it deserved.
"You're mine" she growled, gripping the brunettes hips to pull her back against her.
"Yes…T…I'm all yours…please take me"
Tina slid her hand between the brunettes legs, forcing her thighs apart. She let her fingers slip through her folds, moaning at the wetness that she found.
"Fuck!" groaned Bette, dropping her head down.
The blonde coated her fingers in Bette's wetness and then slowly dragged her hands upwards, spreading the wetness as she went. Her fingers came to rest by the tightest of the brunettes holes, a place that as yet was untouched.
Bette gasped. This was something that they'd never done before, never even discussed. The old Tina was somewhat vanilla, and would never have dreamed of suggesting such a thing. And Bette was too prim and proper to ask for it. But the fact that it was so forbidden, so taboo, so downright dirty, excited her even further. Slowly the blonde began to circle the hole with her finger, covering it with her wetness.
"Do you trust me B?"
"Yes…take me…" the brunette begged.
Gently the blonde pressed her finger into Bette, easing it in bit by bit. She just held her finger inside her, letting her body become used to the foreign intrusion. The brunette could feel herself start to relax, her muscles accepting the blondes finger. Once Tina felt the brunettes muscles loosen she slowly started to withdraw her finger.
"Nooo…" whimpered Bette.
Smiling, the blonde slid the finger back in, gradually building up a rhythm, but still careful not to hurt the brunette.
"Do you like that baby?"
Bette bit her lip, not wanting to admit just how much she was enjoying it.
"I wanna hear you babe, do you like me touching you like this?"
"Yes…" whimpered the brunette "only you"
"Only me B, I'm the only one who can touch you like this"
Slowly the blonde continued her movements, her finger moving in and out, hearing the brunette gasp each time she entered her. She leant forwards, pressing her body against Bette's back, kissing her on the shoulder.
"I love you" the blonde whispered.
She sat back up onto her knees, letting her free hand wander round to the front of the brunettes thigh. Teasingly she drew circles with her fingertip, moving closer and closer to her core. Hearing Bette groan, she had pity on her and let her finger make contact with the brunettes clit.
"Oh fuck!" Bette yelped.
Tina began to press on the brunettes clit, rubbing it in circles. Though she may have been too shy to speak, Bette's body had no such problems. She began to thrust herself backwards and forwards, impaling herself on the blondes finger.
"Two!" she blurted out, blushing as she heard herself.
The blonde grinned, rubbing harder on the brunettes clit.
"You think you can take more baby?"
Bette nodded her head furiously, having lost the power of speech.
The blonde pulled out of the brunette, sliding two fingers down to coat them in wetness. When she was satisfied that they were suitably wet, she returned to Bette's arse and eased the fingers in. Once again she stilled her movements, allowed the brunettes body to readjust. She took her lead from Bette, who, once she was ready, began to rock herself back and forth on the fingers. She resumed her stimulation of the brunettes clit, feeling her own body rock against her lover.
"T…" groaned the brunette.
Tina looked down at Bette's hands, which by now were grasping the bedsheets, her knuckles turning white with the intensity of her grip. Their bodies rocked together, the sweat beads trickling down the brunettes back.
"God I love it when you give yourself to me" the blonde breathed.
"I'm yours…" panted Bette "all yours"
"…so fucking sexy…" Tina murmured.
"Take me take me take me" chanted the brunette.
With one last thrust of her fingers and one last rub on her clit, the blonde was able to send Bette over the edge. The brunettes arms gave way as she came, her screams smothered by the pillow. Tina fell with her, covering her shoulders in kisses as she covered her body with her own.
"T?"
"Yeah babe?"
"Can you take your clothes off now?"
The blonde chuckled "Always the perv"
"Nooo…I just want to feel your skin on mine" Bette protested.
Tina got up and stripped, crawling back over the brunettes prostrate body. She laid on top of her back, her breasts pressing against Bette's taut muscles.
And it was in that position that the two fell asleep, pressed tightly together with smiles on their faces.
