Chapter 10
Serah fidgeted nervously under Snow's piercing gaze. She didn't know what to say or do, so she turned her gaze down at her shoes.
"Serah?" Snow repeated. "What are you doing here?" he put down the beer bottle he was holding and gestured for her to sit down beside him, and Serah did.
"I-I was on my way to the store, when I ran into you," Serah whispered.
Snow still had an incredulous look on his face. "I thought I was never going to see you again in this lifetime," he admitted.
Serah looked at him sadly - he was no longer the glowing, confident man she grew to admire. He looked so beaten and worn down now. Serah felt her heart ache for him. "I wanted to talk to you."
Snow had a hopeful look on his face. Serah thought he must assume she came to be with him again, but unfortunately, she knew that would never be. "I wanted to talk to you about why I wanted to divorce you."
Snow's face turned gloomy again as he only whispered, "Oh."
"You know I do love you Snow," Serah confessed. "But no matter how hard I tried, I could never bring myself to love you the way you wanted me to."
Snow looked away and stared at the pavement sadly. He didn't say anything. He only continued to stare at the ground - his eyes with a far-off look.
Serah continued, "I just wanted you to hear the news from me before you hear it from anyone else…" Serah paused.
Snow turned his gaze back towards Serah, waiting for what she was about to say.
"Lightning and I… are getting married," Serah said quietly, clenching her jaw for Snow's outburst, but there wasn't any.
Serah saw Snow's mouth twist into a half-hearted smirk. "Ah, well," he began. "I guess it's to be expected."
Snow was trying his best to compose himself under the crushing sadness that plagued him - Serah could see that.
Serah moved her hand shakily towards Snow's shoulder to comfort him, but he had already gotten up off the bench. His back was turned to Serah as he stood in front of the setting sun - casting a warm glow all over his form. He turned his head back towards Serah and said, "I know this may sound like something out of a cheesy chick-flick, but believe me when I say this Serah," he said gently, his eyes livid with stinging tears. "I want nothing more than for you to be happy." He turned his head back straight ahead and took a step forward away from Serah. "Congratulations," he said sincerely as he continued walking away into the opposite direction.
Serah stared at his form becoming smaller and smaller as he walked further and further away, until he completely disappeared from her sight. She sat on the bench for awhile - in a thoughtful daze - before she eventually got up to head to the store.
Lightning returned home to find the living room dimly lit with candles. Serah heard the sound of the door click and quickly made her way out of the kitchen towards the living room.
Lightning saw Serah come out of the kitchen wearing a stunning, strapless, red dress that generously showed a great amount of her slender legs. Lightning gulped at the sight before her.
"Welcome home," Serah said as she made her way towards Lightning. She wrapped her arms around her soldier and nuzzled her nose into Lightning's neck - making sure to graze her lips on her neck.
Lightning felt her body freeze from the surprise. "Y-you certainly look dressed up," she said the first thing that came to her mind.
Serah pouted. "You don't like it?"
"N-no! I love it, you look beautiful," Lightning assured her.
Serah smiled. "Thank you," she said and kissed Lightning for a long time until they both had to pull apart to catch their breath. "I made you dinner," she said.
"Really? You really didn't have to Serah."
"Of course I had to. It's to celebrate our engagement," Serah said as she pulled Lightning's arm towards the kitchen.
Lightning saw the beautiful display Serah had set up for the two of them. The kitchen table was lavished with all of Lightning's favorite foods and decorated with a colorful array of flowers. "It's beautiful," Lightning gasped.
Serah beamed proudly. "Really? You think so?"
"Definitely," Lightning said. "Thank you Serah," she whispered as she kissed Serah tenderly on the lips.
Serah felt her knees buckle at Lightning's gentle kiss. She grabbed the back of Lightning's head to crush her lips against her own - she wanted to taste and feel more of her beloved.
Lightning nearly lost her balance from Serah's aggressive tug. She had to grip the table firmly to keep from toppling over as Serah continued to press up against Lightning. Lightning could feel Serah's leg forcing itself in between her own legs and pressing firmly against her center.
Lightning couldn't help but let out a gasp as she reached out for Serah's face to pull her away. "Serah," she panted, "shouldn't we enjoy the nice dinner you prepared for the two of us first?" Lightning wanted nothing more than to spend "quality time" with Serah, but she couldn't bear to see Serah's efforts go to waste.
Serah looked at Lightning with her hazy lust-filled eyes. "Mmm," she moaned, "okay," - she'd do anything as long as Lightning wanted to, as long as it meant in the end they'd have their fun.
Lightning smiled as she escorted Serah to her chair to seat her. They both sat down to dinner and talked about their day - Serah dishing out all the details about what happened with Snow and how Fang and Vanille reacted to the news when she told them, while Lightning listening politely, but intently.
After their dinner and conversation, they headed upstairs to Lightning's bedroom (because her bed was more comfy, according to Serah) and Lightning sat at the edge of the bed.
Lightning fiddled around with her fingers as she nervously watched Serah slip into her nightgown. She watched as she squirmed and wriggled her way into the lacy, see- through lingerie and gulped.
Serah made extra sure to accentuate her behind by bending down to adjust her black stockings - Lightning nearly got a nosebleed from the sight. Her head felt foggy and her body felt like it was burning.
Serah sauntered her way over to where Lightning sat and kneeled down to stare up at her. Lightning only continued to watch Serah - completely mesmerized by the girl before her.
Serah urged Lightning's legs apart to place herself in between them. Lightning sat tensely, waiting for Serah's next move.
Serah slid down Lightning's skirt and her panties as she traced and scratched her fingernails lightly down Lightning's bare legs.
Lightning shivered and trembled from the anticipation as Serah dipped her head down to Lightning's wet core. Serah was breathing heavily onto Lightning's pussy, causing Lightning to groan in frustration - Serah was being awfully slow.
Serah suddenly flicked the tip of her tongue on Lightning's clit, making Lightning buck from the pleasurable sensation taking over her entire body. Serah wrapped her whole hot mouth around Lightning's clit and sucked on it, making extra sure to not make Lightning come just yet, but get her close to it.
After licking and sucking on Lightning's clit, Lightning was panting heavily and Serah could feel her vaginal walls tighten; she knew she was close to coming. She let go of Lightning's clit and moved up to kiss Lightning who was trying to catch her breath.
Serah could see the want in Lightning's eyes as she gazed into them lovingly - they were pleading to her for release. Serah traced a finger down Lightning's spine as she moved back down to slide a tongue up Lightning's slit.
Lightning moan aloud, "Ah! Serah!" was all she could muster out as Serah continued to lick and suck her pussy.
Serah knew Lightning wasn't far from teetering off the edge, so she decided to give her, her well-deserved release and placed two fingers into Lightning as she continued to suck hard on Lightning's clit.
Lightning's body felt as if it was about to float away. Her mind was hazy with nothing but the need for a release. She grabbed a hold of the back of Serah's head and entangled her hands in her luxurious hair as she enjoyed the sensations that washed over her body.
Serah only moaned at Lightning's urgency and sucked and licked faster and harder as her fingers did the same.
Lightning could feel her body wanting to explode as her eyes saw only white. Every nerve in her body screamed in ecstasy as she came the hardest she had ever come in her whole life. Wave after pleasurable wave made her pant and gasp relentlessly as Serah continued to kiss and lick her clit. Her orgasm lasted a long while and even after she was done, Serah still sucked and licked at the juices flowing from her.
After making sure she got every last drop, Serah moved her way up to Lightning's face to kiss her. She danced her tongue up against Lightning's own, making sure Lightning got a good taste of herself.
Lightning tasted a sweet and salty flavor mixed in with the usual unique flavor of Serah's mouth - she felt her head become dizzy from the mixture. Serah grabbed the back of Lightning's neck to kiss her deeply as they both topped backwards onto the bed.
Lightning lay on top of Serah and continued to kiss her. She moved down to Serah's neck and then down to her collar bone, where she sucked and nipped, causing Serah to moan softly.
Serah moved her hands through Lightning's feathery soft hair and gripped at it to urge Lightning to move further down. Lightning obliged and moved her mouth to Serah's breasts, where she untied the lingerie and slid it off Serah's lithe body.
Serah squirmed impatiently under Lightning as Lightning flicked a tongue on one of Serah's hardened nipples. Serah moaned loudly into Lightning's ear as Lightning continued to lick and suck on her breasts.
Lightning then moved down to Serah's torso and caressed her hands up and down Serah's stomach, causing the younger girl to shiver with pleasure.
Lightning moved a hand down towards Serah's pussy and slid two fingers up and down her slit. Serah moved her hips up - wanting more of Lightning's touch.
Lightning could feel the slickness of Serah's pussy coating her fingers and move them slowly inwards causing Serah's body to arch into Lightning's hand.
Serah was panting and huffing from the desire taking over her body. She wanted Lightning to do whatever she wanted with her - after all, she'd been wanting it for so long.
Lightning moved two fingers into Serah's tight hole and pumped slowly in and out of her, causing her already slick fingers to become even slicker from Serah's juices.
"Ohhh," Serah moaned as Lightning continued to move her long fingers in and out of her. She could feel her body becoming increasingly hot as a thin coat of sweat soon covered her entire body.
Lightning quickened her pace and thrust her fingers harder into Serah, making Serah moan more frequently and loudly.
Serah grabbed the bed sheets in between her hands and twisted them with her grip. She could feel herself reaching her climax.
With a few more thrusts of Lightning's agile fingers, Serah screamed in ecstasy as she felt her body violently shake from her orgasm. He body convulsed as the waves of pleasure rocked her body to the core.
Lightning slowly took her fingers out of Serah to the lick the juices off of them. She then moved to kiss Serah on the lips as Serah had done for her.
Serah panted and gasped, trying to catch her breath from her mind-blowing orgasm.
"Was that okay?" Lightning insecurely asked about her performance.
Serah turned her gaze towards Lightning and smiled. She kiss Lightning on the forehead. "It was perfect," Serah said.
Lightning's worried pout turned into a smile as she laid beside Serah with one arm encircled around Serah's stomach.
As Serah laid in complete bliss with Lightning, she was reminded of something. "Hey, Claire?" Serah said.
Lightning lifted her head off of the pillow to look at Serah quizzically. "Yeah?" she said.
"When's our wedding?" Serah asked. She had been wondering herself when their wedding would take place ever since Vanille had asked her.
Lightning darted her eyes across Serah's face, searching for an answer. After some thinking, she came up with an answer. "How about this weekend?" she suggested.
"This weekend?" Serah asked incredulously. "That's a bit fast don't you think?" she asked worriedly.
"So," Lightning responded, "the faster I can make you my wife, the better," Lightning said blissfully.
"Well, then," Serah started, "then we're going to need a lot of help setting up the wedding on such a short amount of time," she chuckled.
Lightning smiled humorously and kissed Serah's lips softly. "We're going to need the A-Team in order to set up this wedding," Lightning joked. "And when I say 'A-Team' I mean our friends."
Serah giggled at the reference, "I'll make sure to call Vanille first thing in the morning."
