Before school ended, Cheryl offered Toni summer of her dreams. She had brochures for some crazy places they wanted to visit. Cheryl put on the table cruise in French Polynesia that would last little over two months, she offered trip to Europe (London, Paris, Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, Prague), but Toni shook her head and smiled at the girl.

''Babe, every day we get to spend together is amazing. I don't want you to waste money on me.''

''Babe, I am not wasting anything… I promise. I just want us to have summer of our dreams.''

Toni pulled Cheryl on her lap and kissed her shoulder.

''Entire summer with you and no school is the summer of dreams.''

Small smile formed on redhead's face. Her girlfriend was very romantic and good with words.

''But I want us to travel somewhere…''

''How about going to California….on my bike?''

''That does sound like adventure.''

''Yes it does. You have to pack very few things so they can fit my bike.''

''I am guessing that my packing is an actual adventure for you…''

Toni smiled at her.

''Babe, you have to learn to pack only essential…''

''Fine, you can pack us…But how shall we survive three months on very few things?''

''There are wash houses where we can wash our things…and we can sleep in a very cheap motels…''

''And you would rather pick that than what I suggested?''

''Honestly?''

''Always…''

''Yes, I would rather pick this than what you offered… This is our crazy adventure IN the country. For your trip, we still need a consent and I am pretty sure that you don't want to go after Penelope and I am sure I don't want to try to find my uncle.''

''But we are emancipated.''

''Yes , we are emancipated here, but we still need consent to leave the country.''

''I hate it.''

''Me too…''

''Fine babe. Let's start making arrangements and putting on the paper what we need for this trip.''

''You don't need pen and paper…''

''Yes, I do… We must put it all on the paper so we don't forget what we need.''

Toni smiled at the girl.

''Babe, we need few things… Don't forget it's the bike and two of us…''

''Toni, can you then make me a list of things I need.''

''Ok, babe… I'll do it.''

Toni took Chery's paper and pen and wrote very few words. All that they, Toni fit in about ten lines. She explained to Cheryl they can do their washing on the way and that she shouldn't worry. They were same size, so they could be practical with packing. They didn't tell anyone about their trip because they really wanted their alone time. This would be the first time they were alone, since those few days Cheryl spent with Toni after being rescued from the Sisters of the quiet mercy. But Cheryl was excited for one more reason. She was sure this would be the summer when her virginity would become an ancient history. She and Toni had few situations where it could have happened, but somehow they always got interrupted or Toni tried to stop it because she believed she is rushing Cheryl into something she doesn't want. Now, Toni will not escape her. Cheryl started thinking about it very often. She was sure her mind was like mind of a teenage boy. She felt like Archie Andrews. She was constantly checking out Toni and spending too much time on Google trying to pick up as much tips about sex with women as she could. There were days she was embarrassed she googled all that, but then she would remember it was for a higher good and felt ok about it…but frustrated.

School ended and it was time to leave. After the last class they had, Cheryl drove them to her place and there they changed for the trip. Bag was ready and they put on what Toni left on her bed for them. Cheryl was finally going to brake in her new red jacket and have amazing summer with her girl. They prepared all the cash they would need for the tolls and maybe motel, but Cheryl had her credit card handy too. She told Toni not to worry about the money, she had them covered. Toni didn't really like it, but it was less than she would spend on any of those trips on her. Main reason she rejected Cheryl's ideas was the money. She didn't feel ok about Cheryl dropping that much money on her. This roundtrip is something she could afford to some extent.

They put everything on Toni's bike and locked the house. Cheryl made sure that nana's caretaker has all the important numbers and she also left them with enough money for three months. They god on the bike and put the helmets on. Toni smiled at her girl and Cheryl returned the smile. Excitement was in the air.

''Route 66, here we come.''

And they were off. Toni had plan to ride until it's some midnight or something and then to find a place to sleep and continue in the morning when they wake up and feel ready for it. It was up to Cheryl to tell her when to make brakes, since Toni was the one who could ride for really long time without making any stops. They had to stop for gas at some point, but she wondered if Cheryl could wait that long. She was surprised to see that her girlfriend was just like her. They loved the ride and the feeling of the wind in their face and Cheryl loved holding Toni close. They made their first stop at the gas station. Toni was by the bike, and Cheryl went inside to get them some food and drinks. She paid sandwiches, gas and sodas and went outside. Toni stood by the bike and she was checking the tires and if the lid on the tank was properly closed. She had her serpent jacket and very tight pants. Cheryl loved how her ass looked in them. She bit her lip and just watched her girlfriend check the bike.

''Looking good babe…''

Toni smiled at that. She knew Cheryl was staring at her ass again. Toni knew that this trip will change their relationship and that at some point she would not be able to control herself anymore. She wanted this girl pretty much since the first day she met her and she feared now that things are moving too fast for Cheryl. She didn't want her to regret anything.

''Than you babe…''

They ate and used the restroom before they continued the ride. Toni found nice motel that was well lit and had few bikes and cars around. She chooses to park there and they went to get the room. They got their keycards and went to the bike to get the bags. They put their bags on the chair by the door and explored the room. If you ask Toni, room was good. It was clean, it smelled nice and it had working hot and cold water. Cheryl was not used to this, but she kept her mouth shut. She was there with Toni and that was the only thing that mattered. Toni locked the door and pulled the drapes.

''Babe, want to shower first or could I go?''

''Sure, you go first and then I will.''

Toni went to the bathroom and Cheryl took their chargers and put their phones on it. They gad few missed calls and messages from Veronica. She wanted to hang out and tell them some news about Archie. Cheryl called her and Veronica answered almost after the first ring.

''Where are you? I went to your house and I found nana and the caretaker?''

''We are on a trip. Toni and I are going to California.''

''What?''

''Yes, on her bike…''

''You are insane…''

''That is a possibility, but we choose to do it.''

''Where is Toni?''

''Taking a shower.''

''Oh, and you are on the phone with me? Why are you not there with her?''

''Because we…You know….''

''Oh, but that will change soon… Will it?''

''Well, one could always hope.''

''Ok…''

''Changing the subject…And how is Archie?''

''They will accuse him of murder. It's pretty much safe assumption that he is going down for it. Andre is dead, so there is no one who could testify.''

''And you?''

''What can I say? I was in the house.''

''You are right.''

Toni called from the bathroom asking Cheryl to give her something from the bag. Veronica heard Toni's voice and started teasing the girl.

''Is she calling you to rub her back?''

''No, she needs me to give her shirt to sleep in.''

''Oooo, sexy…''

''Stop fantasizing about my girlfriend. Lodge you are such a pervert…''

''And you don't do it?''

''I can do it, it's MY girl.''

Toni called again and this time she opened the door. Cheryl was lost for words. Toni was in a tiny towel and she was so hot.

''Babe, can you pass me the shirt?''

''Sure… Talk to you later Veronica…''

She hung up on Veronica and gave Toni her shirt. Toni smiled at her and closed the door. She was out few minutes later looking hot and relaxed.

''I'm done; now you can go.''

Cheryl picked up what she needed and got into the bathroom. She really needed that shower. It was an amazing afternoon on the bike, but now it was time to relax and enjoy the water on her body and face. After she was tone she brushed her teeth and put on nighty Toni packed for her. It was cute baby pink satin nighty she loved. When she got out, Toni was already in bed watching a movie. She turned off the lights and got in bed with her girlfriend. Toni turned to face Cheryl.

''And? What do you think of our trip?''

''I think it will be amazing summer. I get to be with you and I don't care about anything else.''

Toni smiled at the other girl and gave her a kiss.

''I am so tired. Let's get some sleep so we can continue our journey rested.''

''Ok.''

Cheryl cuddled up to Toni and they fell asleep right away. They were tired from how adventures their day was. They woke up around nine and got ready. Toni offered Cheryl to go somewhere for breakfast, and she picked some small diner she found on the map. It looked like Pop's, but for the girls nothing could compare to that place. Food was amazing there, but it held special place for them because it was the place where they talked for the first time and Toni told Cheryl she was sensational. Hours on the bike flew for the girls. They rode through amazing scenery and they took a lot of pictures. Toni had her camera, Cheryl had her camera and phone and it was so much fun. Cheryl found it cute how Toni was not used to have her pictures taken. They were less than a day on the road and they already had so many pictures together and had so much fun. Cheryl felt so relaxed and happy and she hoped things would only get better.

First big stop was Saint Luis. Cheryl booked them a room and they stayed at old hotel in a city center. It was very rustic and romantic and she loved the pictures. What Toni didn't know was that Cheryl rented them a suit. So they had even a small kitchen in the room and she could make them whatever they wanted to eat.

''Babe, why did you spend so much money on this?''

''No, I didn't and stop talking about money. It's not an issue. We have it.''

''No, babe, you do…''

''Can we not argue over this? It's not that expensive hotel. I promise.''

Toni didn't really believe it, but she let it slide. At one point she realized that it really matters to Cheryl to have some things her way and that she doesn't have any bad intentions. She wants to spoil Toni and give her what she didn't have as a kid, that luxury not to think about money. And Cheryl always wanted love and never cared that much about the money and what it could give. After they left their things and took a shower Cheryl insisted they go sights seeing. They walked around the city for hours. Toni took Cheryl to lunch and around eight in the evening they came back to the room. They were so happy and so tired. Toni was going through the phone and watching pictures they made. She posted some of them on social media and right away some of them got liked. She was laughing so hard when she realized Cheryl was posting from the bathroom.

''Babe, stop posting and go to the shower! I need to shower too.''

''You can always join me.''

Toni was tempted, but she always let her self-control overpower her desire for Cheryl. She didn't go join Cheryl, but she really wanted to do it. She wanted to sneak into the shower and make love to her girlfriend. And this trip was very serious temptation for her. She had Cheryl by her side all the time and no one there to control them or interrupt. Toni got into the bathroom and Cheryl went to the kitchen to make them tea. They loved good cup of tea before going to bed. It was one more way for them to just chill and be. They would watch a move or just hold hands and have their little Cheryl and Toni time when they talked about some things that were on their mind at that moment or something serious. Toni got into bed and Cheryl passed her the cup. It was her favorite cherry and cinnamon tea.

''Thanks babe. You're the best.''

''Tell me something I didn't know.''

They finished their tea and episode of Criminal Minds that was on that evening and Toni was ready to sleep. She was to tired and excited for them to continue their trip. By her calculations, it would take them about two weeks to reach California and who knows what they will do there. Cheryl had other ideas. She was not that sleepy, especially after realizing Toni's shirt moved and exposed her lower back and very sexy lace panties. She cuddled up to Toni and kissed her neck and behind the ears that was one of Toni's spots.

''Babe?''

Toni turned to face her and Cheryl took the chance and kissed the girl. She deepened that kiss and pulled the other girl on top of her. They had pretty heated make out session before Toni pulled back. Cheryl had to address the issue now.

''Babe, can we talk about something?''

''Is something bothering you?''

''Is there a reason you don't want me?''

''What?''

''Every time we get to the point where it might happen, you pull back.''

''Cheryl…''

''I really need to know what is wrong, especially if we are going to spend months together on the road.''

Toni felt so bad now. She never wanted to make her feel that way. She believed she was doing the right thing refusing her advances.

''I want you… I wanted you for such a long time, but I want you to be sure you want to be with me.''

Cheryl started to laugh.

''Really, that is the reason you have been backing off? You wanted me to be sure? Oh, I am sure! Believe me, for a such a long time being with you has been on my mind… Maybe from that sleepover with the Vixens…''

Now Cheryl straddled Toni's lap.

''Babe, you have been on my mind for a very, very long time and if the...situation was different, you wouldn't have gotten away so easily. ''

''What situation?''

''I am a virgin…and I never was in situation to try to have my way with someone.''

''Have your way with someone?''

''Yes, that's what I said…''

Toni played with the hem of Cheryl's nighty.

''Baby, I want it to be something worth remembering…something special…not something rushed.''

''What was your first time like?''

''With a boy or a girl?''

''Both…''

''With a boy…Well, it was not a boy… He was eighteen and I was fifteen. It was in the back of his truck and I didn't really enjoy. He was not gentle and pretty patient. He didn't really understand it was my first time. It took me some time to sleep with a boy again.''

''And the next one…?''

''Was Fangs…''

''What?!''

''Yes, and he was really nice. He was in love with me for such a long time and I tried to date him, but I couldn't get this one girl off my mind.''

''You are bad!''

''Hey, the girl was you…''

''Oh my God! No wonder your boys don't like me.''

''And they are right. You corrupted me Blossom.''

''Me? I think it was the other way around. I was a good girl and look at me now. I am in a gang riding a bike cross country.''

''You could have always said no to this.''

''And skip on all the fun we will have, no…not a chance.''

''And the girl?''

''She was a girl from our school. She was a senior and pretty badass. She took me to get my Serpent tattoo. Some friend of hers had a tattoo place and he did it for me. After that we went to her place and we had sex for the first time. She was amazing. It was different than anything I ever felt. She was so patient, gentle and she made it fun. It ended soon after that. She got back with her ex and they are still together.''

''Where is your tattoo?''

Toni smirked.

''Somewhere on my body….''

''Where should be mine?''

''Where ever you want it babe.''

''Where would you put it?''

''I support the place you pick. It's your body and your tattoo. I feel like I'm corrupting you with all these stories.''

Cheryl kissed Toni and smiled.

''Good thing is that there are many more ways for me to get corrupted by you Miss Topaz.''

''What did you have in mind?''

Cheryl took off her nighty and threw it to the chair.

Toni was serious all of the sudden.

''Cheryl, are you sure? Are you really ready?''

She smirked at her girlfriend and repeated her iconic comment.

''I was born for this moment.''

Toni started laughing and responded with one more of Chery's comments.

''So, you after all want my Sapphic serpent hands on your body…?''

She just gave her one of the trademark Cheryl Blossom looks and kissed her.

''As much as I love people quoting me, I think not talking that much is better to do…''

Toni took off her shirt and just stayed in tiny pair of lacy panties. Cheryl was glad it was finally happening. Their night was amazing. Toni was so patient, so gentle and she made Cheryl feel so many things. She felt loved, wanted, sexy, excited and free. Never in her dreams could Cheryl Blossom imagine that the day would come for her to sleep with a girl, especially girl so different from her. Toni was on her stomach looking and Cheryl who lied on her side and watched the other girl with the same adoration. Cheryl finally saw Toni's serpent tattoo. It was on her side, on the ribs. It was not big, but Cheryl really liked it a lot. It was a serpent in pink flowers, same shade as her hair was. She touched Toni's tattoo and smiled.

''Found it…''

''It's not that easy to miss.''

''I know…I like it. It's very much you…''

It was past midnight, so it was time for something very special. Cheryl sneaked out of the bed and got a little box for Toni.

''Happy one month anniversary babe…''

''Babe? When did you get me a present?''

''I have my sneaky ways.''

Toni opened the box and found a ring with one pink and two white stones. It was very rough cut and she loved it.

''It reminded me of you and I simply couldn't resist.''

Toni knew now why Cheryl was sneaking a peak at that hippy jewelry store. Cheryl put the ring on her index finger. Toni had such thin fingers that any jewelry you wanted to get her had to be resized or bought with her at that place.

''Thank you babe…''

She also sneaked out of the bed and went to her backpack.

''I had your present ready at home and I brought it with us.''

Toni gave her small bag and in it she found silver locket. On the one side were small deep red rose blossoms and on the other were pink roses. When she opened it, there were two of their pictures. At one they were in the kiss and on the other they had their faces really close and they smiled and looked so happy.

''It's so you have me always close and know that I really love you Cheryl Blossom.''

''I love you too TT.''

They cuddled up in bed admiring their presents and enjoying their new closeness and even deeper intimacy that before. The ''L'' bomb was dropped and they survived. Cheryl Blossom could finally say that her life became…sensational…
