The Proposal

Bianca and Marissa walked into the living room at Wild Wind hand-in-hand coming home from their first official date. Marissa spun Bianca around so they were facing each other and she wrapped her arms around her. Bianca smiled and put her arms around Marissa's neck. They kissed softly as Marissa's hands moved down Bianca's back and their bodies moved closer together.

"You look beautiful tonight," Bianca said with a smile.

Marissa smiled back. "So do you."

Bianca suddenly moved away from Marissa. She thought for minute about the conversation she had earlier in the week with her sister Kendall. Kendall had offered her the house to the two of them. Were they ready to move in together? Would Marissa think that this was all too fast? This was her first lesbian relationship. They hadn't even talked about taking things to the next level let alone jumping over about five levels. Then she thought about what she had said about the relationship still having time to go downhill. Kendall told her not to think like that. She knows that Marissa is her best friend and she knows that Marissa loves her, she loved her too. Had she ever actually said the words to her though, no. Was Bianca ready, yes.

"I love you Marissa," Bianca said on the verge of crying. Why was she about to cry her eyes out? She was finally with someone who she loved and loved her back. Someone who she knew somewhere in her heart she could trust with her life.

Marissa cradled Bianca's cheek in her hand as she wiped a tear with her thumb. "What's wrong?"

Bianca took a deep breath in and then a heavy sigh came out. "I just don't want to ruin this, us, and friends or as lovers. I care about you too much to have either one of us hurt over anything happening…"

Marissa put a finger to Bianca's lips. "Nothing is going to happen. As far as I'm concerned neither shoe has dropped." She smiled. "I'm not Reese," she said bluntly the smile leaving her face. She knew she just needed to get this off her chest before she exploded and their relationship ended before it even started. "And I am definitely no JR. I will never put work before you or the kids. I love you too much to take advantage of you." She lowered her finger and took a breath before continuing making sure Bianca had nothing to add before she went on. "You and the kids are everything to me. I just want everyone to be happy. If you aren't happy I will do everything in my power to make you happy, to put that beautiful smile back on your face. You were the first one to point out an attraction. I was the first to tell you that I loved you…"

Bianca opened her mouth and then put her hand on Marissa's cheek interrupting her this time. "I do love you, so much." She smiled.

"I'm so glad to hear you say that," Marissa smiled back. "Let me just say this one last thing though before we go on because I just want you to know that I am completely invested in this relationship. I promise you here and now that I will never lie to you. I will never cheat. And I will always trust you. I will tell you everything I am thinking because I never want to keep anything from you."

Bianca took Marissa by the hand and pulled her close to her they kissed again more deeply than before. She lowered the strap on Marissa's dress and kissed her shoulder tenderly. Marissa lowered the other strap and slowly slipped her arms out. The dress slid down her body sliding over every curve of her body. Bianca watched as Marissa stepped out of her shoes and the dress around her ankles. Bianca ran her hand down Marissa's arm. They kissed again as Bianca began to unbutton her top.
