New Story! YAY!

My feet are killing me. The ground is cold and wet, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. Naomi's hand is sweaty as she grasps mine tightly. I begin to shiver.

"You cold, Em?" she asks worriedly. "I wish I had a jacket to give you."

"S'ok. Such a gentleman, though. Wanting to give me your jacket, what's next, opening doors?"

"Har har. I know how to treat a lady right, okay, Fitch?"

I frown. "So your idea of treating a lady right is running away after intimacy? Interesting." I immediately regret my words. I shouldn't be tainting this night with talks about Naomi's failings.

Naomi comes to a halt, and says in a chopped tone, "Look, I'm sorry about that. Sorrier than I've ever been about something. I know I hurt you, and I'd do anything to make it up to you, yeah?"

I bring our clasped hands to my mouth, and kiss the back of Naomi's hand. "I'll love you no matter what."

She grins widely. "Don't think I'll ever get tired of hearing that one."

I can't help but smile myself. I tell her again, "I love you," punctuating each word with a kiss to her knuckles. We continue to walk in amiable silence until we reach her house.

"Do you, er, want to come in?" Naomi asks nervously, "I mean, you don't have to. Well obviously you don't have to, but I'd, um, like you to. Not trying to force you into anything, you probably want to go home, it's been a big day and, um, well-"

I cut her off with a kiss. A warm feeling feels my body as she deepens it. We kiss for what seems like an eternity until a loud voice interrupts us.

"Naomi! Naomi, is that you?"

Naomi groans loudly, turning towards her mother. "Yes, Mum, what do you want?"

Gina hurries out into the street where we're waiting, Kieran following awkwardly behind. "Are you there, Emily?"

"Yes, Ms. Campbell, er, Gina."

Gina beams as she says, "So Naomi finally pulled her finger out? Got together with you?"

I turn a scarlet red at her choice of words. Naomi's face matches mine as she grabs my hand and drags me to the door.

"We're going to be in my room," she calls out to her mother.

"Leave the door open," Gina yells back. "Just kidding. Kieran and I are going out. We'll be gone for a long, long time." She winks at me, and, if possible, my face turns redder. Kieran looks at her, surprised.

"We're going somewhere?"

She elbows him in the ribs. "Yes, we're going to your place, love."

"I thought you said you wouldn't set foot in that "patriarchal shithole" again?"

"Well I've changed my mind. Bye girls!"

They take off in Kieran's shitty car. Naomi looks and me and smiles lecherously. "So we've got the entire house to ourselves. What should we do?" She winks at the end of her statement.

"Jesus Christ, you're lucky you're adorable, because that was the worst attempt at seduction I've ever seen."

"I'm adorable, eh?"

"Yeah," I say as I lean up for a kiss. I move to deepen it, but she pulls away.

"Let's go upstairs."

"Okay." She drags me up to her room, and begins to attack my lips. I moan into the kiss as I unzip her dress. It falls to the floor, and I have to swallow hard at seeing Naomi in her bra and underwear.

"You're wearing much too many clothes, Ems" she purrs, slipping my slip over my head, and pushing me towards the bed. I fall back onto the bed as she straddles me. She sucks on my pulse point, hard enough to leave a hickey.

"Mine," she mutters, "Not his."

I push her off. "Not whose?"

She looks a bit embarrassed. "Er, JJ's."

I scowl, "That was a mistake."

"I sure hope so. I mean I understand why you did it, I was being a twat, but I guess I'm just hurt that you ran to JJ's bed so soon after mine. I suppose I should have agreed to go with you to the Love Ball. No, I definitely should have gone with you to the Love Ball"

I'm confused. "What? I slept with JJ like two months ago. Way before you said you wouldn't go to the Love Ball with me."

Her face brightens enormously. "You didn't sleep with JJ to get back at me? You did it before I hurt you? Katie definitely made it sound like you went to him after I rejected you."

"Yeah. Do you think I could have done it after I realised that I loved you? I want you, and only you."

"That's good to hear."

"You know what else is good to hear?"

"What?"

"I. Love. You." I kiss her after each word.

"I, er, loveyoutoo," she mumbles quietly.

I grin, "What was that?"

"I, uh, love you too."

"Pardon? I couldn't quite hear you."

"I'm in love with you!" she yells, throwing her hands up in the air.

"Good." I begin to kiss her anew, relishing the feeling of our bare skin touching. I unclasp her bra, but she stops me from pulling it off.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

"Nothing," she says, biting her lip in the way that I find completely adorable. "Keep going."

"Doesn't seem like nothing. Tell me, please? Let's not start us again with secrets."

"Okay. Em, would you like to, care to, er, be my girlfriend?" Her voice gets progressively softer.

My smile splits my face. "I'd absolutely love to be your girlfriend." I nuzzle her neck with my nose.

So I don't know if I can write the sex scene, so be prepared for that not happening for a while. Review please, it makes my day.
