Tess was on cloud nine! For the first time in her life, she had a -
"Tess!"
The eighteen year-old snapped out of her reverie at the sound of her coach's voice. She turned and saw Brenda striding towards her with a grin on her face. It had been almost a month since they were last together. Tess had been busy filling out scholarships and had to be content with smiles exchanged in the hallway. Tess was so glad that things hadn't gotten weird between them, instead they exchanged secret smiles. Of course now...
"I'm so glad to have caught you!" Brenda eyes shone and was slightly breathless. "This weekend could you babysit again - "
"Guess who?" Two hands pressed over the her eyes. She felt a smaller body press against her. "Hi honey." Soft lips on her ear caused a shiver of excitement.
Tess pulled the hands away to look down at the pixie-ish blond. They exchanged a quick kiss before the eighteen year-old turned back to Brenda. Did she see a shadow of disappointment?
"What's all this then Tess and Kelly?"
"We're dating!" Kelly's grin was infectious and Tess felt her own smile bordering on foolishness.
"Why... I'm - I'm surprised!"
Kelly gave Tess a huge hug. "Yeah, she converted me."
Tess felt hot embarrassment burn her cheeks. "Shut up! You know -"
"You shut up." Kelly stopped her with a quick kiss on the lips. "You know I'm just kidding."
Brenda smiled. "You had an entire swim season together and NOW you start to date."
The teens laughed.
"But I guess you can't babysit now. You probably have a hot date."
Tess shook her head. "It's no problem coach. I can do it."
"You sure?"
Kelly laughed. "I suppose I can give her up for one night."
"Thanks, see you at seven on Saturday night." The coach walked away, leaving the high school couple standing arm in arm.

Tess felt a flutter of nervousness in her stomach as she heard the garage door open. She and coach hadn't had any time to talk about Tess' girlfriend. She felt bad and wondered if Brenda would be very disappointed with her.
The door opened and Brenda burst through.
"Hey lovely!" Brenda slurred voice matched the drunken, lopsided smile on her face.
John sheepishly walked behind wife through the doorway. "Guess who is drunk this time."
Tess giggled and walked over to them. "I'm glad to see you had a good time."
Together, they helped Brenda over to the couch where she promptly collapsed.
"Thanks." John nodded to the young woman. "I'll be right back, I have to get our coats from the car."
Tess looked down at her coach. The older woman already appeared to have fallen asleep. Her curves apparently as she lay on the couch, her tight, black skirt hiked up around her thighs. Was she going commando like last time?
Unconsciously, the eighteen year-old licked her lips.
"You have a crush on her, don't you?"
