Chapter 6 –A Force To Be Reckoned With-

Wanting to show Alicia something she had found on their client`s facebook page, Kalinda turned around to see her friend had drifted off and was mesmerized by the transformation that had taken place in the Alicia`s face.

She knew the attorney wore a mask around most people. She had seen her negotiate with Gold, cross witnesses, talk with Will, and have a completely different demeanor in every single one of those interactions.

But she had thought in her presence, Alicia had felt she could be herself.

Now, seeing the relaxation in her sleeping friend, she thought… She knew she had been wrong.

While she was watching, she noticed how Alicia`s eyes started to move more, indicating she was dreaming. Her heartrate picked up as she saw Alicia bite her bottom lip, stroking her cheek snuggly against the pillow. The moan that seemed to come from deep within made it even more clear to Kalinda what sort of dream Alicia was having. She knew she had to wake her friend, but the highly sensuous sound had weakened her and it was as if she could do nothing more than keep watching.

Kalinda gently cupped her face in the palm of her hand and stroked away the remainders of the tear that had just slid down. Then, the investigator moved closer and let her lips follow the same path. Moaning, Alicia pressed her face closer to the soft caress and felt her desire rise. As Kalinda pulled back to look into Alicia`s eyes, the attorney found herself at loss for words, but not for actions. Taking the investigators face into her own hands, she slowly moved closer until her lips finally reached those of the other woman. Groaning in relieve, she found herself licking their softness, begging for access, and when that was willingly granted, lost herself in the most passionate kiss she had ever experienced.

Letting her hands slide up and down Kalinda`s toned arms, she felt the woman shiver and deepened the kiss even more. Feeling soft hands stroking her back, finding a way under her shirt, she grinded herself closer to Kalinda, wrapping her thighs around the other woman`s upper leg. She felt her own hands slide under the cotton sleeveless shirt, and find… Softness… Such immense softness. Kalinda shook in her arms as she slowly started to explore her breasts, making a circular movement, closer and closer to it`s erect center.

Pushing off the Indian woman`s shirt and tossing it aside, she slowly started to move her backwards onto the couch, pushing her down as her tongue trailed a path from the investigator`s neck to the softness her hands had just caressed.

`Alicia`

Kalinda`s voice sounded hoarse and breathless from desire and Alicia moved her face up to look into those extraordinary eyes, kissing gently the lips before her.

`Alicia`

`Alicia`

Suddenly the voice had sounded with more urgency and Alicia felt herself being pulled from the dream that had felt so real. Feeling the softness of Kalinda`s hand make contact with her upper arm, Alicia lingered for a short time between dream and reality, watching hazily how those almost-black eyes in front of her seemed to focus on her features.

`The hearing will be in 90 minutes.`

That piece of information certainly woke Alicia completely. Pushing herself up she tried to suppress the beating of her heart and the immense desire that kept raging through her.

`I found some things I think you should take a look at.`

Blushing, Kalinda moved away from her, gathering her laptop. Kalinda? Blushing? The sudden realization that maybe she had talked in her sleep made Alicia more than a little uncomfortable. As her friend sat on the couch, she immediately jumped up.

`Right, I will, just let me freshen up. Would you do me a favor and pick up my change of clothes from the car?`

Kalinda suppressed the urge to smell the perfectly pressed pantsuit she had gotten out of Alicia`s car. A platonic night of work, that was all it had been! But then why could she hardly move one leg in front of the other? Unlocking the door to her apartment she heard the distinct sound of Alicia talking on the phone. Will? Blake? Peter?

`At Kalinda`s, honey. Yes… Of course I do, they are in the second drawer from the right. Yes. I`ll see you tonight. I love you.`

Kalinda felt her heart drop at the sound of those 3 little words she feared so much. They always seem to come accompanied by hurt. Also this time. She loved Alicia, Alicia loved Peter, Peter had slept with her… How many more thorns could this vicious circle form?

`He`s in love with you, you know`

Alicia`s words, accompanied by a short nod to the cellphone, indicating who she was talking about, almost made Kalinda drop the clothes. She made a point of calmly placing them on the couch before turning around to face the brunette.

`What?`

The forgiving smile that played with the corners of Alicia`s mouth, made Kalinda sick to her stomach.

`Well, who can blame him. You are a force to be reckoned with, with your sexy boots and perfect body.`

The investigator blinked twice as she saw her friend calmly pick up the blouse of the pantsuit and shake it out.

`This will have to do`

She mumbled, checking her watch in the process.

`Whoa, wait, what? Sexy? Perfect? I never did anything to make anyone fall in love with me, Alicia!`

Amused Alicia turned around in order to reassure her friend, took a few steps in her direction, and shortly tipped her finger against Kalinda`s nose, as she used to do to her children when they were little.

`Well, then you just shouldn`t have been so irresistible, should you now?`

Kalinda`s devastated face made Alicia burst out laughing.

`Oh come on Kalinda, he is just a kid. He will get over it in time, I`m sure. I just wanted to give you a heads-up.`

Zach! She had been talking about her son. And, more importantly, she had been talking TO her son. The smile that broke through on Kalinda`s face almost made Alicia gasp for air, and as the Indian woman pointedly rubbed her nose, suddenly the two woman found themselves laughing uncontrollably.
