It had been quite a day. Between the lesbian scenes in Orange is the New Black and that unexpected kiss in the bookstore, my juices were flowing. I hoped I had fresh batteries for my vibrator when I got home.
“How about I make us dinner tonight?” Jodi asked when we got back to her place.
“Are you up for it? With all the walking you did today you must be sore.”
“You’ve been taking care of me. Let me take care of you for a change.”
“If you’re sure,” I said reluctantly. I would have been perfectly happy to put something together for us to eat.
“You go sit. Watch TV, read a book, take a nap. Relax.”
“You won’t let me help?”
“I’ve got this. Go.” She turned me around by the shoulders and patted my butt to get me moving.
I played on my phone until she set the food on the table and called me in to eat. When we finished, I insisted that she go sit and I would clean up. She didn’t put up an argument, and I suspected she had worn herself out.
“All set,” I said when I was finished and had joined Jodi in the living room. “I need to get going pretty soon. You must be beat and just about ready for bed.”
“Are you tired?” she asked me.
“A little. Not too bad.”
“Would you, um…Would you want to spend the night?”
I figured she must have overdone it with walking and then making dinner. “Sure. I didn’t bring any of my stuff though.”
“You can borrow whatever you need. I have a toothbrush you can use.”
Of course, I would stay if Jodi needed me. “Sounds like a plan.” My vibrator would have to wait. “Do you want to watch a movie?”
“Sure. Pick something out.” She got up from the recliner she was sitting in and sat next to me on the couch. I was still scrolling through our choices on Netflix when she leaned toward me and kissed my cheek. I turned my head, my face inches from hers. I could feel heat radiating off of her. I tried to gauge the look in her eyes and concluded it was want. The same want that I was feeling. I closed the gap between us, and I put my arms around her as our lips met. Slowly. Tentatively at first. Then with more fervor and urgency. Her tongue greeted mine in a deep dance of desire. I wanted this woman. This beautiful woman. Her fingers snaked through my hair and down my back. When she brought them up again, they were inside my shirt, skimming over my skin, leaving a hot trail in their wake. She unhooked my bra and I broke contact with her lips long enough to allow my shirt to be removed. I shimmied out of my loose bra and tossed it on the floor where my shirt had landed.
She pulled back. My breath was ragged as I looked into her eyes, trying to read her face. Had she changed her mind? Was she in pain?
“I just want to look at you,” she said in response to the question I hadn’t verbalized. Her eyes skimmed over me, and it was as if it was her hands touching me. The sensation was the same. “You’re beautiful,” she said when her eyes once again met mine.
Her lips were pressed against mine before I had a chance to respond. Her fingers slid up my rib cage to my breasts. I moaned against her mouth as her expert fingers kneaded my flesh and her thumbs made gentle circles around my nipples.
She left my mouth, tilted her head down, and sucked a nipple in. The sound that came from my throat surprised me. She stopped long enough to look up at me.
“You like?”
“Oh my God, yes.”
I had to hold on to the back of the couch as the feeling of her tongue dancing around my nipple left me in a puddle. The hand she slipped between my thighs was too much. I was afraid I was going to lose control and orgasm right there. I needed to slow down. My body was on fire and I needed to gain a little control.
I pulled her head up, kissed her hard, and pushed her backward on the couch. She let out a low moan and put her hands up to stop me from lying on top of her. I sat up quickly. Shit. In the heat of passion, I had forgotten about her healing incisions.
“I’m so sorry. Did I hurt you?” I had trouble spitting the words out. My heart was pounding so hard, I was certain her neighbors heard it.
“I just need a minute,” she said, pulling herself to an upright position. “My fault.” She rubbed a thumb over her incisions.
“Do you need to stop?” I asked. Hoping that her answer was no but telling myself it was okay if she did.
“Absolutely not. Unless you want to.”
“Did I seem like I wanted to stop?”
She laughed. “No. It seems like you were getting into it. You went all animal on me there for a minute.”
“I’m so sor—”
She put a finger to my lips. “Stop. I’m teasing you. I liked it. I liked it a lot.”
I blew out a puff of air, trying to compose myself. My breathing had returned to normal, but the throbbing between my legs hadn’t let up much.
“What do you say we continue this in my room?”
“I thought you wanted to watch a movie,” I teased her.
She grabbed the remote from where it had landed when I dropped it earlier. I hadn’t even realized it had left my hand and turned the TV off. “No movies tonight. I have something else in mind, that I hope will be much more entertaining.” She stood and held out her hand. I took it and walked with her to the bedroom.
She turned on the small lamp on the nightstand and started to remove her shirt.
“Stop,” I told her. “I want to do that.” I looked into her deep green eyes, that held a hint of blue in the dim light of the room. One by one, I unbuttoned her shirt and slid my hands over her shoulders to remove it completely. I reached behind her, unfastened her bra, and released her breasts from their restraints.
I gently ran my fingers over her scars before slipping my hands into the back of her pants and cupping her ass. I pulled her toward me and kissed her lips gently. I parted them with my tongue, and all bets were off as she held my face and deepened the kiss. We were both naked and on the bed within seconds. Hands, legs, tongues, touching, exploring, wanting.
The back of her hand swept down my body from my chin, across my chest, and down my stomach to the tangle of soft hair. A single finger found its way inside the folds, and I sucked in a gulp of air. This seemed to urge Jodi onward and she slipped the finger inside me. Just the one at first, and then another. She moved them with a rhythm that seemed to match the beating of my heart. The world became a blur as lights flashed behind my closed eyelids and I shuddered with an earth-shattering orgasm.
Jodi slipped her fingers out and I let out a small whimper at their absence and how sensitive they had left me. Her body was soft and warm and oh so good, as she curled into me and held me until my breathing and heartrate slowly returned to normal.
“Wow,” I said when I was finally able to speak. “I never…I mean so fast…never…” I was still having trouble getting my brain to fire out coherent thoughts.
“Sounds like you never,” Jodi teased me.
“Not like that.”
She kissed the top of my head and absently stroked the side of my breast. “Good.”
“Good God.”
“No need to call me God. Your majesty will do.”
I laughed. I felt surrounded by not only her arms, but her love. It was palpable. This was so much better than my vibrator. So. Much. Better.
“You ready to get some sleep?”
“No way. Unless you need to. Cause I’m not nearly done.”
“You seemed pretty done to me a few minutes ago.” I could tell she was smiling even without looking at her.
“I’m not done with you.”
“Oh yeah? What did you have in mind?”
“I’d rather show you than tell you.”
“I can deal with that. Or you can narrate as you go.”
“First,” I said, pulling myself up so I was face-to-face with her. “I’m going to kiss you like this.” I took her face in my hands and kissed her gently on the nose.
“Is that the best you can do?”
I ran the tip of my tongue along the edge of her top lip before plunging it into her mouth. She must have liked it because she responded immediately. “Better?” I asked when we came up for air.
“Much. What else are you going to do?”
“Just watch me.” I ran a trail with my tongue down her neck to the center of her chest. Her heart picked up its rhythm as I neared her breasts. I gave each one attention in turn, sucking and licking as I went. It took me only a second to work up the courage to move downward to the destination I sought. I was on a mission.
I gently parted her folds with my fingers before tentatively exploring her center with my tongue. I was surprised and aroused by how wet she was. The moan she let out caused an unexpected cascade of sensations in my own body.
I totally let go of the fact that I had never done this before and let my instincts take over. I listened to the sounds of pleasure coming from Jodi and let that be my guide. I had hoped to give Jodi pleasure. What I didn’t expect was how much pleasure it was giving me. I was in a constant state of arousal, and when Jodi arched her back and rode the wave of an orgasm, my body came close to doing the same.
I hoped this was the first of many times that we could be together like this.
