Alex
Alex gently removed Callie’s hands from the sides of her face, kissed both, then placed them on her own shoulders.
“Do you have candles and a lighter in the bedroom?”
“Yes.”
While wrapping her arms around Callie’s middle, Alex slid to the edge of the couch, grabbed a flashlight off the coffee table, and as she stood up, Callie smiled and wrapped her legs around Alex’s waist.
“Should I blow out any of the candles out here?”
“No, they’ll be fine.”
Callie leaned in, as if to kiss her, then pulled back, biting her bottom lip, and instead ran her hands through Alex’s hair, wrapping the shoulder-length strands around her fingers and gripping them tightly. The act and look of affection and raw desire in Callie’s eyes increased Alex’s own arousal. She quickly flicked on the flashlight and walked them back to Callie’s bedroom.
As soon as she set Callie on the edge of the bed, she tugged on Alex’s shoulders. Lighting candles suddenly seemed unnecessary, and Alex allowed Callie to pull her onto the bed, Callie scooting back until they reached the pillows. Alex stretched to set the flashlight on the nightstand with its beam focused on the ceiling and giving them just enough light to see each other. As soon as she returned her attention to Callie, their mouths melded together, and Callie’s hands dug into the back of her shoulders, slipping under her sports bra.
Callie suddenly broke from the kiss, breathily said, “Take this off,” and started peeling the fabric up Alex’s back.
Alex sat up on her knees, straddling the tops of Callie’s thighs, and as soon as she ripped the bra off over her head and tossed it aside, Callie released a burring moan and sat up. She ran her splayed hands up Alex’s defined abdomen, over her ribs, and up over her small breasts.
“You are so beautiful, Alex.” She lightly cupped her cheeks, eyes darting between Alex’s. “I don’t just mean your face and body.”
Alex couldn’t remember the last time anyone had used that word to describe her physical appearance, if ever. She’d been told she had a beautiful heart and sexy body, but beautiful wasn’t an adjective people used for her face, not even her ex of three years had ever called her beautiful. The sincerity in Callie’s eyes was irrefutable, and that, more than the spoken words, tugged at Alex’s heart, causing her emotions to rise.
Thankful for the darkness, so Callie couldn’t see that her eyes had teared up, Alex bowed her head and planted a firm kiss on Callie’s lips. Callie sighed as she wrapped her arms around Alex’s middle and slowly leaned back, pulling Alex with her, and parted her mouth, deepening the kiss. As she rested her weight on Callie, their naked torsos pressed together, and they released a shared moan into their kiss, then smiled against each other’s mouths.
Alex sucked and gently nibbled Callie’s bottom lip, eliciting another moan, and their mouths moved together with renewed fervor. Callie’s hands roamed Alex’s back, tracing her muscles and down the dip of her spine, every stroke and pattern melting Alex’s bones and making her hungry for more. As Callie slid her hands under the waistband of Alex’s borrowed sweatpants, her fingertips digging into the top of her ass, Alex pushed herself up a few inches, reaching between them to unbutton and unzip Callie’s jeans.
Callie broke from the kiss to push her pants down, lifting her hips so Alex could pull them down her legs. As Alex tossed the jeans aside, and took in the sight of Callie lying on the bed in just a pair of pale pink lace panties, her clit spasmed and body heated.
“Gorgeous,” she revered, as she bowed and layered a trail of kisses up Callie’s legs, alternating between them, from her ankles to the lace-covered junction.
Alex could feel the heat of her sex on her lips even before she gently kissed her over her panties, the texture of lace and the soft flesh beneath causing her lips to tingle. Callie released a breathy gasp and her hips rose against her mouth. Her hands dug into the bed, fisting the quilt, and her head rose from the pillow, locking eyes with Alex. Holding her gaze, Alex looped her fingers in the waist of her panties and eased them down over her hips. She pulled them down just enough to expose Callie’s trimmed mound, and planted kisses from hip to hip, then teased her bikini lines with the tip of her tongue.
“Alex, please,” Callie rasped, while lifting her hips.
After delivering another kiss to her mound, she sat up on her knees to pull the panties down Callie’s legs. As she was bending down again, Callie pointed to Alex’s groin.
“Take those off. I need to feel you against me.”
Happy to oblige, Alex climbed off the bed to remove the sweatpants and her underwear. As soon as Alex stood upright, completely naked, Callie sat up, smiling and biting her bottom lip.
“Hurry. Come back.”
Alex crawled back up the bed, and when she tried to bow her head to kiss Callie’s tummy, Callie gripped her arms and yanked her forward. With a surprised laugh, Alex fell on top of her. Callie smiled ear to ear as she wrapped her arms and legs around her.
“I haven’t felt like this in so long.” Callie firmly dragged her hands up and down Alex’s back, her eyes slanting and her chest expanding with a deep inhale. “You feel so good.”
While looking into Callie’s eyes, Alex brushed her thumb over her bottom lip, then gently kissed her, whispered, “Yes, I do. I feel incredible because I’m with you,” then kissed her again.
Callie whimpered as she threaded her hands through Alex’s hair, brushing it back off her face. “I like that.” She perked up and caught Alex’s bottom lip between her teeth and released it with a pop. “I like you and I like how I feel with you, not just in this moment, but in all moments.”
Their mouths met in a slow, tender kiss that quickly became eager and almost desperate. As Alex slipped a hand between them, palmed Callie’s breast, and twisted her nipple between her thumb and forefinger, Callie groaned into their kiss. A moment later, she dropped her legs from around Alex’s waist and pushed her heels into the bed, lifting her hips to seek friction against Alex’s groin.
Alex met her with a forward thrust, grinding their centers together, both of them moaning from the contact. Callie’s wet heat coated Alex’s mound and lower stomach, further encouraging her, and she picked up and maintained a firm pressure with a moderately paced stroke. She ground her hips forwards, backwards, and in circles, increasing their breathing and the frequency of their moans.
As Callie broke from the kiss, head tilting back with a sharp moan, body shivering beneath Alex and hands digging into her shoulders, Alex lifted her hips and cupped Callie’s hot, wet apex with her right hand. Releasing another sharp moan, Callie’s hips bucked up into Alex’s touch. Her chest shuddered with a long, measured breath, and meeting Alex’s gaze, she rose against her touch while slipping her own hand between Alex’s thighs.
Their fingers slid easily over each other’s folds, circling, pinching, flicking, and pressing deep inside. Their hips worked to meet each other’s strokes and thrusts, and their lungs labored under the contracting intensity of their building orgasms. Their moans drowned out the sounds of the thunderstorm. Their skin broke out with a light sweat sheen, increasing the friction of their bodies moving together.
“Alex, I’m…” Callie’s hand stilled between Alex’s legs, and her mouth fell open in a silent scream, quickly followed by a body-quaking moan. She bucked and spasmed, rising against Alex’s touch, and gasped for air, eyes tightly clamped shut.
After riding out her aftershocks for several moments, she pulled Alex’s hand out from between her thighs, then renewed her efforts to bring Alex to climax. Watching Callie become possessed by her pleasure had Alex right on the edge, so it didn’t take much to send her over the edge into euphoria.
As she fell limp on top of Callie, breathing hard and slightly twitching, Callie pulled her hand free and wrapped her in a tight hug, kissing the side of her neck and shoulder. She smiled against the side of Callie’s neck, feeling exactly like they were two puzzle pieces that fit together perfectly.
