*** KarmyForLife***
I groaned and reached up to cover my eyes as sunlight filtered through the tent. It took me a second to get my bearings and remember where I was exactly, but then I heard a little moan and Karma shifted against me and it all came back to me. I smiled when I felt her nuzzle her face down into my neck and couldn't help but to tighten my arms around her.
"Morning" She mumbled sleepily against my neck and a little shiver shot down my spine as her warm breath ghosted against my chilled skin. I reached my hand up and brushed her hair away from her face before moving so I could look down at her. She still had her eyes closed and a slight smile playing on her lips, and every now and then the sun would flit across her face just enough that it took my breath away for a second.
"Morning sleeping beauty" I whispered back and watched as the corner of her mouth turned up a bit more and she finally slipped her eyes open to look at me. I felt her hand move from its position on my hip up to rest on my lower abdomen as she started playing with the hem of my shirt rendering me speechless for a few seconds.
"What are you thinking right now?" She asked quietly, pulling me from my thoughts as I continued to admire the way the light would catch in her eyes every now and then making them lighter than usual. I blinked for a second and then smiled at her in response.
"I was just thinking how beautiful you look right now" I answered truthfully, and couldn't help but to pat myself on the back as I saw her cheeks flush cutely in response. "And I was also thinking… We should go swimming today" I mentioned, knowing how much Karma loved to get dressed up in a bathing suit and go swimming when it was hot out.
"You hate swimming" She reminded me with a little chuckle as she sat up a little and leaned her head on her hand to look down at me. Her hair fell down in her face and I absentmindedly reached up to push the unruly strands behind her ear before replying.
"But you don't" I shrugged my shoulders and watched as she pursed her lips in thought and leaned her head a little to the side.
"And?" I chuckled at the cute expression on her face and pulled her body a little closer to mine as I flipped onto my side and mirrored her position by propping my head on my hand. I felt the steady rise and fall of her chest against mine increase slightly at the new positioning.
"And I'd do anything to make you smile" I whispered back, letting my eyes roam down to stare at her lips that I've found I'm quite addicted to. The corner of her mouth turned up and then a shy smile took over her features.
"Wanna know what I'm thinking right now?" She asked and I immediately nodded my head because I would give anything to know what's going through that beautiful head of hers all the time. Her eyes flitted around my face for a few seconds before zeroing in on my lips, causing my heart to stop all together. "I'm thinking I need to kiss you" She whispered as she moved forward slowly, never lifting her eyes from my lips as she did.
She stopped for a millisecond when she was a hairsbreadth away from connecting her lips to mine and my erratic breathing hitched thinking that she might change her mind, but then she closed the distance and stars burst behind my eyelids. I lifted my hand up to her cheek before slipping it around the back of her neck to increase the pressure of the kiss and she gasped quietly into my mouth.
I felt her body tremble against mine and I moaned quietly when she squeezed my hip and sucked my bottom lip lightly. I brushed my tongue experimentally across her lips and felt her fingernails dig into my skin as she quickly opened up for me. I was just about to brush my tongue against hers when..
"Wake up bitches!" Shane burst into the tent in a flurry and nearly fell over top of a now beet red Karma. "Oops… Looks like you guys are quite awake already aren't you?" He chuckled and sent a wink in our direction. Karma made an unintelligible noise in the back of her throat before she pulled the blanket up to cover her still flaming face.
"What the fuck Shane?!" I half yelled as I reached across the lump in the blankets that was Karma and picked up my shoe before chucking it in his direction. I felt a little bad when it hit him square in the chest and he yelped before scampering back out the tent door. "Get the hell out of here." I took a second to calm my breathing as I thought of ways I could kill Shane. Seriously, what the hell was he thinking?
"You lesbians are gonna be the death of me" I heard him comment in a huff as the tent was finally zipped back up. I rolled my eyes and slumped down onto my pillow because the moment was completely ruined and Karma had yet to reappear from under the blankets.
"Fuck my life" I groaned in annoyance as I brought my hands up and covered my face. Back to square one I suppose.
I kicked my feet and swished the water around a little bit as I sat on the river bank and waited for Karma to get ready. After Shane interrupted us this morning I finally convinced her to get up so we could go swimming, but there was no mention of the kiss at all. I'm not sure if that's a good sign or not though. I'm just glad that Shane and his friends had decided already that they were going hiking today, so after reaming him out about the tent fiasco I informed him we wouldn't be joining him and the others on the excursion.
"How's the water?" I jumped and put my hand up to my chest to try and calm my heart, because that girl can seriously be a ninja sometimes. I heard Karma let out a little laugh as she dropped her towel onto the ground next to me.
"It's a little cold for my liking" I responded with a smile as I lifted my hand to block the sun from my eyes and turned to stare up at her. My mouth drops open and I'm pretty sure I don't even need to go swimming now, because I'm gonna be soaked in a few seconds anyway. And now I'm trying to think up an excuse for her to need to wear that green bikini any time we're together, but my mind isn't cooperating at the moment.
"What..?" Karma asks with a lifted eyebrow as she places her hands on her hips. "Do I look fat or something?" Her eyes shifted around my face for a few seconds before she looked down at herself self-consciously. I snapped my mouth closed and shook my head vehemently because I really don't understand how this girl can be so blind to her own beauty.
"Of course not… Are you crazy?" I asked with what I'm sure was a look of disbelief. She furrowed her eyebrows down at me and I could tell she thought I was lying to her. "You look amazing Karms" I reached my hand up and grabbed hers lightly and saw a light blush color her cheeks before she bit her lip sexily and slid down to sit next to me.
She gasped as she slipped her feet into the water and squeezed my hand tightly. "You were right… This water is cold" She said with a smile as she glanced over at me. I smiled back and slipped my hand out of hers before occupying it again by resting it on her thigh. I felt her tense up for a second before she grinned and leaned back on her hands. All I wanted to do right now was jump this girl… but until I work up the courage I'll settle for trying to create as much contact with her as I can.
"Actually I think the water feels okay now" I replied, because I'm pretty sure my body temperature is about 2000 degrees hotter than it was a couple of minutes ago. "Do you wanna go in?" Karma shrugged her shoulders and flipped her hair to the other side before she swished her feet back and forth through the water. Whether it was sub consciously or not I don't know, but with that slight movement I felt my hand slip a little further up her thigh and it was followed by a quiet gasp from the auburn haired beauty beside me.
"Actually I think I uhh… am ready to jump in…" She finally answered, her breath catching half way through as I scratched my nails along her skin. Her eyes trailed up to mine and I sent her a little wink before wrapping my arms around her waist and pulling us both sideways into the water.
I pushed my wet hair out of my face and laughed as Karma sputtered up to the surface and gave me a push. "I couldn't resist… You should see your face right now." Green eyes narrowed at me and I thought I might be in trouble before a wide smile broke out over her face and she splashed some water at me.
"You're such a jerk" Her teeth chattered a little bit and she pushed her feet off the bottom to swim backwards away from me. I grinned and moved forward a bit as though she had a hidden Amy magnet somewhere in her bathing suit. Let me be honest though… I don't think she could hide much of anything in that thing, and that made me very happy every time her chest rose above the water line and I got a glimpse of her hardening nipples.
"You love me for it" I replied as I stepped forward and easily slipped my arms around her waist. I heard her let out a little scoff as she leaned back in my arms and dipped her hair in the water. "So is it cold in here or are you just happy to see me?" I smirked and let my eyes trail down over Karma's chest receiving a smack to my shoulder in response.
"You're not supposed to comment on that butt face." She shook her head and laughed lightly as she slipped her arms around my neck and pulled us a little further into the water that would cover her chest.
"Why not? I happen to like the subject matter." I grinned cheekily at the quirked eyebrow I received in response. "But you didn't answer the question did you?" She bit her lip and stared up at me making my stomach flip nervously because I've never been this confident with my feelings for Karma apart from the threesome and that didn't exactly work out very well.
"Wouldn't you like to know…" She answered quietly, moving her body close enough to mine to where I could now feel her nipples pressed against mine and I nearly fainted on the spot. Her nails scratched along the back of my neck and I shivered as she gave a little pull and raised up to press her lips to mine in a heated kiss.
I gasped in surprise and then moaned when Karma tugged me closer and slipped her tongue between my lips. My whole body was shaking as our tongues brushed together for the first time and I nearly came undone when I heard the sexiest little sound slip from the back of Karma's throat. I felt like I was drowning in her, but yet I still wanted more… I needed to be closer.
My hands slipped down to her hips and squeezed once earning me a bite to my bottom lip and a shiver and before I knew it my hands were on her ass and I was pulling her hips against mine. Karma's hips bucked forward as I dug my nails into her ass cheeks and sucked her tongue between my lips. And at this point I don't even know which way is up because I'm pretty sure my brain has shut down from lack of oxygen and my body is just running off of arousal.
I sighed when she scratched my scalp and slowed the kiss down to a more leisurely pace, before pulling back and brushing her lips against mine lightly a few more times. My hands never left their position as I gulped in big breaths of air and she pulled my forehead down to lean against hers.
"Whoa.." She whispered breathlessly against my lips with a little smile. I pulled her into a hug and leaned down to place kisses along her shoulder before replying in turn.
"I know… Trust me I know…" I answered and she pulled back with a smile before kissing my lips one more time.
"If you guys want some lunch its ready" I heard someone yell from the river bank breaking me out of my Karma daze long enough to cut my eyes over to Liam. He looked a little uncomfortable as he stared at us, but I could really care less because I loved Karma and he could fuck off if he thought I was gonna let him snake his way back to her.
"Okay… We'll be there in a minute" I replied, quickly bringing my eyes back to stare into her dilated green ones that I'm sure matched mine right about now. She licked her bottom lip and it took every ounce of willpower I had not to lean forward and finish the job for her. "We should probably go eat… Otherwise they might send Shane again." Karma chuckled quietly and nodded her head against mine.
"Okay… Kiss you later?" She had the cutest little grin on her face as she said the last part and I couldn't help but to smile at it.
"Kiss me anytime you want" I replied as I pulled her backwards through the water towards the river bank. Needless to say I've changed my mind about swimming… I fucking love it.
