Chapter 7
The delightful aroma of scented candles filled the air, as it slowly brought her to her senses. She felt hands very gently massaging her shoulders and back. Scarlet moaned softly as a smile formed on her face, she then felt those same hands turn her over to her back and then the sensation of those soft lips pressing against her as they gave each other a loving, morning kiss.
"Good morning baby." She said as she took in a deep breath.
-"Hey sexy."-
Scarlet put her hands behind her head as she laid back, "I'm amazed you woke up before me."
She scoffed, -"I wouldn't have."- hearing Scarlet giggle was enough to say that she knew why she was awake.
"Nagisa?"
-"Tsubomi, Hikari, Yaya, Nagisa, Chikaru… and Eli. They are so loud in the morning."- Momomi parted Scarlet's red hair away from her face, -"I'm amazed Ember can sleep through it all."-
"Oh you have no idea." She chuckled, "Have I ever told you that she slept through an earthquake once."
Momomi blinked, -"Really?"-
"Oh yeah, I was awake through the whole thing and I was amazed that she didn't feel it."
-"Wow."-
"Yeah, so this is not gonna wake her up at all unless you actually go in there and wake her up."
-"I wish I could do that."-
Scarlet chuckled, "Don't we all?" she sat up as she gave herself a good stretch, "So what's the plan?"
-"Well I was just thinking of going back to sleep."- She threw herself on the mattress, -"But… I'm not sleepy anymore."-
"Baby, we should really move our stuff to the end of the hall. It's no big deal, besides its more quiet there."
Momomi sighed, -"Part of me wants too and the other part is just lazy to move."-
Scarlet shook her head, "Well then, how about if I do this?" she then reached for Momomi's lower regions and she gasped in surprise.
-"Carly?!- she said, -"So feisty."- Their morning soon after that was filled with passion till they glanced at their clock seeing it past noon and decided to head on down with their friends.
"Come on, let's go see what everyone else is doing."
-"Do we have too?"-
"Unless you want to stay here and have sex all day?"
-"Don't joke around Carly, you know I'll take you up on that."- Momomi smirked knowing that she could pounce on Scarlet on any given moment.
Scarlet laughed, "Come on lets go."
Momomi sighed loudly, -"Fiiine."-
The two slowly headed down the steps hearing everyone talking amongst themselves, Chikaru and Shion were in the living room with Nagisa and Shizuma watching TV. Scarlet only assumed that Yaya, Tsubomi were in the game room and no doubt that Hikari might be with them. As for Eleanor and Miyuki she could only guess that they were either out or somewhere in the house. Ember on the other hand was probably still asleep otherwise the whole house would have heard her.
The two girls joined the girls in the living room as Chikaru had put in an action movie and they could tell just by the amount of guns and explosions on screen.
Scarlet could hear someone coming down the steps and when she glanced over she saw Ember going to the front door.
"Hey Ember." She called her cousin, "Oh hey, what's up." She walked up and gave her a hug.
"Going somewhere?" she noticed that she was all dressed up and ready to go.
"Yeah, gonna go meet someone."
"Natasha am I right." They all turned around seeing Eleanor heading down the steps with a huge grin on her face.
"Oh really?" Scarlet smirked, "Oh my god you two." Ember laughed, "Well anyway, gonna go meet her so I'll see ya girls later." She opened the door and walked down the steps. She sat on her motorcycle, zipped up her leather jacket and gloves, scarf then slipped on her helmet and flicked the visor the down to protect her eyes from the wind. She revved up the bike and took off.
-"Whoa, since when did she drive a motorcycle!?"- Yaya looked out the window.
"She always did," Scarlet looked out, "Last she told me it was in the shop."
-"Sugoi!"- Hikari shouted as everyone looked at her and laughed.
Ember looked around, seeing the building that Natasha had suggested to hangout, a coffee shop for starters and see where it went from there. She entered it, trying to spot Natasha which didn't take long after seeing her wave at her to let her know she was there.
"Heey Natasha." She took a seat, "How's it going."
"It's been alright, just settled in my home now. What about you Ember?" she took a sip of her coffee.
"Well nothing new to tell, just hanging out with my cousin and my friends." She began, "Just enjoying what time I have left here till I go back and film the rest of the show."
"Oh that is right, you are that amazing actor in that show."
"So you've seen it?" she smiled.
"Oh yes, it has been very addicting. I can not get enough of it." Natasha smiled.
"Glad to know I'm doing a good job then." The two smiled at each other, "So Natasha where do you want to go? Or do?" Though Ember smirked knowing what exactly she wanted to do with this sexy amazon in front of her.
"I know, we can check out that new arcade place that opened up."
Ember was taken aback, "You like arcades?"
"Why yes I do, it is how you say 'kickass'." Natasha stood up and grabbed Ember and took a few blocks down the streets and stepped into the arcades.
"I gotta say, you surprised me," she laughed, "I learn something new from you whenever I see you."
"Well that is not fair, I wish to learn more about you Ember." Natasha smirked.
"Maybe some other time." She looked around, "How about we play something."
"Yes let us destroy the competition!"
"Wait, you mean compete? Against these people?"
"Why yes of course, surely you did not expect us to just ride it out on something easy, yes?" before Ember could even protest, Natasha had called out all the other gamers in that room into a friendly battle in a shooter game to see who could get the most points. It wasn't until another kid re-challenged them to a rhythm game, or rather a dancing game and immediately assumed the two girls would back down.
Ember's face lost color because she knew she'd be blown out on the water because she had no rhythm and didn't exactly know how to dance, let alone in a game.
The first challenger stepped up, "Watch and learn ladies." He said as she smirked while Natasha only crossed her arms and waited to see this guy's moves. Ember made sure to watch carefully and see how the game worked in order to be able to play more competently.
"Beat that lady." He challenged Natasha who only laughed as she waved her hand, dismissing his taunt and stepped up the platform, removed her jacket to reveal she was wearing a tight sleeveless and exposed her well toned arms. So she selected her song and the intense bass filled the area. Ember watched in awe as Natasha scored thousands and thousands of points, eventually making a million and still going higher. Ember wasn't the only person that was impressed; the two boys that challenged them had to pick their jaws off the floor knowing that Natasha meant business.
Ember however had to pick her jaw up for a different reason, she could not stop staring at Natasha's sexy body. The dance was mesmerizing and her eyes were fixed on her butt as she danced but glanced up, seeing her skin glisten from the thin layer of sweat and her beautiful face… she was smitten.
"Beat that boys." Natasha flicked her hair, flung her jacket over her shoulder, stepped off the platform and stood by Ember's side.
"Wow, that was just… wow!" Ember praised Natasha, "You are an awesome dancer!"
"Thank you Ember." She smiled as they watched the other boy get on, while not as impressive as the boy before or Natasha, he still managed to get a decent score.
"Alright your turn Ember." Natasha gently pushed Ember up the platform, "Um wait, I cant dance!"
Natasha giggled, "You will be fine, you do not have to pick the hardest difficulty." Ember's heart was pounding , she swear it could burst out of her chest at any moment. Though in her fear she forgot to switch the difficulty after she picked her song.
Ember was shocked, and surprised for the first few seconds as the song began to play and she felt overwhelmed trying to keep up. But she took a second and gathered her thoughts and began to give it her all.
While they watched, it finally hit Natasha that she was hanging out with a celebrity… a celebrity that wasn't at all what she thought. She had always figured that celebrities were stuck up people and were easily annoyed with their fans and did all they could to keep them away. But here was a girl like Ember, a girl she was a fan off and not once was she annoyed with anyone that recognized her, she welcomed it though at the same time she didn't want people to make a big deal and to just treat her like a normal person. Natasha admired this girl and at the same time… she felt something for her but it couldn't be what she thought… could it? There was no way a girl like her, would ever be interested in a small time woman like herself… would she?
"Well… it was not that bad for your first time Ember." Natasha looked at the score seeing that it was slightly better than the previous player. The two combined each other's scores to see which team scored the highest and Ember's team had won… by three points.
"That was amazing," The boy shook Ember's hand and Natasha, "Good game ladies." He smiled at them as they prepared to take their leave. As they began to walk away they heard.
"hey wait, isn't that." one said, "Holy shi—That's Ember Lain!" Ember stopped hearing her name and turned around seeing the two boys rush at her with three girls in toll.
"Ms. Lain, huge fan! Can you sign this." They all held out a small notepad, Ember couldn't help but smile, "Sure thing." She signed their notepads and she had to hug one girl because she broke down in tears as she finally met her idol. After thanking her fans for their support and spending a little time as they asked her a few questions, they left the arcades and got right back out into the harsh cold winds.
"So what now?" Ember asked with a smile on her face.
"I have to say Ember, you are not at all as I thought." She smiled.
"What do you mean?"
"I do not mean to offend, but some actors do not like being bothered." Natasha replied.
"Ah, I see." She chuckled, "Well I love my fans, they're the main reason I can support myself."
"I can see that." Natasha couldn't look away from her beautiful face and piercing eyes, "Anyway, what do you want to do now?"
"How about we go watch a movie?"
"I believe the theater was packed." Natasha had seen it on her way to meet Ember earlier, "It doesn't have to be a theater, we can just pick out a movie and watch it at your place."
"Sounds like plan." The two hopped on Ember's motorcycle and rode to a movie store, rented a movie and followed Natasha's guidance to her home. They entered the building and rode the elevator up to Natasha's home.
Upon entering her home, Ember noticed it was a simple but lovely home and she didn't have many flashy decorations, preferring to keep it simple and inviting.
"Nice place Natasha." Ember looked around, noticing that she had no pictures of herself or family.
"Thank you Ember." Natasha hung her jacket in the closet, "Best I can do, but it is very comfortable here."
"Working for Nell is amazing I take it?" Ember smiled at her.
"Of course, I am able to see her every day and 'hang out,' but it is great working there."
"That's nice, well I'm glad you're doing well." She followed Natasha to their living room and inserted the movie to watch it together. Thirty minutes passed them by as they watched the movie, greatly enjoying one another's company.
Natasha glanced over to look at Ember and she couldn't shake the feeling of being attracted to this girl, it was driving her crazy. Did she love her, it couldn't be could it? they had just now began to spend time with one another but there was a sense of feeling that the two were able to relate to one another but she had no idea about Ember's past though she much wanted to know.
Ember caught Natasha staring at her and her giggle snapped the Amazon woman out of it, "Somethin wrong Natasha?" she smirked.
"Oh no, nothing is wrong Ember." Ember however grinned as she slowly moved closer to Natasha till finally she straddled on her lap and wrapped her arms behind her neck.
"Are you sure?" she said, "If something is on your mind, then just say it."
Natasha's heart began to beat faster having Ember this close to her, she instinctively wrapped her arms around her, "Just... wanted to say that you are very beautiful Ember."
"So are you, and very sexy." She smirked and without warning pressed her lips on hers, Natasha was caught by surprise by the act, but didn't protest as she slowly warmed up to it. Ember grabbed Natasha's hands and guided them to feel her body to let her know that she was hers. Natasha slid her hands to Ember's butt and lifted her up as she stood up while carrying Ember all the while and made her way to Natasha's room.
It had been a while for Natasha but found nothing but passion in their love making and it was everything she could have hoped for.
As for Ember, she was excited, turned on and completely loving this experience with the girl she found so irresistible and incredibly sexy, there was a certain aura about her that drew Ember more closer to her.
Natasha began to assault Ember's neck with kisses and just by hearing her breathe and moan was enough to tell her it was driving her crazy.
They were lost in ecstasy for a while till it slowly came to a stop and after resting for a few minutes, Ember began to get changed as it was getting late and didn't want to make her cousin worry for her.
"I have to say, you really satisfied my curiosity." She giggled, "It was amazing."
Natasha turned over with a smile on her face, "So what happens now?"
"Well I'm gonna go home, my cousin is gonna get worried if I don't head back." She said as she finished tying her boots.
"What about us?"
"what about it?" she said only to realize what she meant, "Wait, you know this was just to fool around right?" she said but seeing Natasha's face she knew that she thought there would be more to it, "You're not bringing any emotions or feelings into this right? Like I said I was just foolin around."
"So… there would be nothing between us?"
Ember sighed, "No." she was convinced that Natasha wanted to fool around too, Ember had no idea she would have wanted a romantic relationship with her.
"Is this not what you wanted too?" She asked as she sat closer to Ember.
"I…ugh." She hung her head, Ember had no intention of hurting her this way, "I just can't…"
Natasha grew curious, "What do you mean? What is wrong?"
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Ember you know you can talk to me right?"
She chuckled, "We hardly know each other that well."
"But we are friends are we not? And friends help each other? You can trust me." Ember seemed to think it over but all Natasha heard was a sniff and Ember wipe her eye.
Ember stood up, "I gotta go." She left her home quietly and quickly, got back on her motorcycle and drove away.
Natasha was greatly concerned for Ember, what happened to her to make her want to avoid intimate relationships? She cared about her even though they hardly knew each other but in the short time that they did, it was clear that Natasha was falling in love with her and wanted to help her.
