Chapter 10
Seven wrapped Kathryn's arm around her back and gently reached her other hand up to the back of Kathryn's neck. Gently massaging the muscles there, Seven felt the other woman moan. The kiss was growing more passionate as the women stepped into one another and wrapped their arms around each other. It was dynamic. One moment, Kathryn's tongue was licking along Seven's bottom lip and the next moment the two women were sharing short, powerful pecks, then back to deep, sexy kisses once more. Though it was not what she had in mind when heading back to her quarters, Kathryn was definitely happy with the situation.
Kathryn's arms found their way up and around the back of Seven's head, one hand reaching into the blond hair and the other grasping the back of Seven's long neck. Seven's hands, however, found their way down. She had wrapped her arms around the other woman's small waist, but her hands had slowly worked their way lower and were massaging Kathryn's buttocks. Her hands were forcing the other woman's pelvis to rhythmically bump her own.
"Mm, Seven, darling, hold on," Kathryn panted, "I think this is going a little fast. I don't want to rush you."
Seven, forehead resting against Kathryn's, gently shook her head. She could not look away from the other woman's swollen lips and dilated pupils. Though she knew the mechanics of arousal, none of those biological signs meant anything to the younger woman in the face of Kathryn's heaving chest, very-kissed lips and fluttering eyelids. She took matters into her own strong and very capable hands. She picked Kathryn up. The smaller woman had no choice but to wrap her legs around Seven's hips and hold on. Before moving, Seven kissed Kathryn again, demanding entrance into the other woman's mouth.
Stepping into Kathryn's bedroom, Seven tightened her hold on the other woman's body but released her lips from the intensity of her kisses. She moved to kiss the other woman's neck instead, just below her right ear.
When she felt Seven's lips gently sucking beneath her ear, Kathryn couldn't imagine stopping but knew she should try again. "Seven, Seven, God, are you sure? Are you sure you want this? Me?"
In response, Seven licked her neck from the edge of Kathryn's tunic to her earlobe before sucking the sensitive earlobe into her mouth.
Groaning, Kathryn spoke again, "Computer, make the viewports in my quarters opaque."
The room was quickly shrouded in darkness.
"Seven, can you put me down, please?" Kathryn asked quietly.
Gently allowing the other woman to slide out of her arms, Seven wondered what Kathryn was up to.
Kathryn kept her hands on Seven and gently slid her right hand up from the other woman's neck to touch her face. With her fingers just grazing it, Kathryn asked if Seven could stop using her optical implant. When the taller woman nodded, Kathryn smiled, "I think we're on even ground now, Seven. Neither of us can see. Let's just make sure we put your biosuit someplacae where we can find it again."
With that, Kathryn leaned in and began kissing Seven again in earnest. She slowed things down. While the pace they had set with that kiss by the door was exciting, Kathryn wanted it slow. She thought that, maybe, Seven might be able to return her feelings and the smaller woman wanted this – their first time – to be slow and sweet. She wanted Seven's first time to be beautiful and reverent. She wanted the other woman to know what it felt like to make love, to be worshipped.
Seven understood that things had changed. She could feel it in the energy pouring off of her soon to be lover. She settled into the new, slow kisses. After a few minutes, Seven pulled back bringing her hands up to the other face. Using just her fingertips, she traced Kathryn's eyebrows, starting in the middle and moving to her temples. Then, with her thumbs, she traced her cheekbones back and forth. That led to Kathryn's jawline and finally to her lips. The smaller woman was breathing raggedly by the time she opened her mouth to nip at Seven's fingertips, then gently soothe them with her tongue. Seven felt that nip in her whole body.
Seven drew her hands down Kathryn's neck to the top of her tunic. Finding the zipper, she opened the other woman's top and pushed it down her arms to hear it hit the floor. Kathryn's tank top was next and Seven pulled it over her head, followed by her bra. Shivering slightly when the cool air caressed her warm body, Kathryn stepped into Seven's body, hugging it to her tightly. It was heaven to feel Seven's hands on her back.
"I'm sorry, Seven, but you'll have to help me with your outfit. I haven't the slightest idea how to get that catsuit off of you," Kathryn practically whispered. She felt a little embarrassed at needing the help. She got over it quickly when Seven released her and she felt the other woman's body stretch as those long arms reached up undo a clasp near her neck.
Kathryn shivered again, knowing she was about to feel Seven's skin against her own. As the taller woman stepped back to remove her clothes, Kathryn quickly kicked her boots off and stepped out of her pants.
Wearing nothing but her underwear, Kathryn said Seven's name softly. She immediately felt the other woman's presence in front of her. Kathryn instinctively put her hands up in front of herself where they met Seven's. Fingers laced together, their lips met again. Seven pushed gently until Kathryn's legs hit the bed. The blonde woman waited while she heard Kathryn sit down and slide herself onto the bed. Seven followed, her arm came into contact with Kathryn's leg and she slid her hand up the outside of Kathryn's right thigh. When she came to the hem of the other woman's underwear, she slowly slid it off the other woman's body.
As their bodies finally pressed against one another with nothing between them, Kathryn felt a flood of wetness between her legs. "Seven," she breathed.
They fit together in that natural way of women who belong with one another. There was no awkward slipping or uncomfortable bones bumping together. Lying on their sides, Kathryn reached down and drew Seven's left leg over her body, opening the other woman up to her touch. Seven rolled onto her back, bringing Kathryn with her and sliding her right leg between the other woman's.
"Seven," Kathryn breathed again. It seemed to be all she could say. It came out like a prayer.
Lifting slightly, Kathryn pushed her center into Seven's. The taller woman slid her hands down to hold Kathryn's hips as they made love. It happened so fast, Seven was caught off guard. One moment, she was marveling at the moisture between her thighs and focused completely on the feel of Kathryn's body riding her own and the next moment, she felt her insides melt and freeze at the same time. The force of her unexpected orgasm forced her to sit up and push Kathryn down slightly to her thigh, triggering an orgasm in Kathryn as well.
"I love you, Kathryn," Seven cried as she felt tremors inside her body and tears wash down her face.
"I love you, too, Seven," Kathryn answered.
A/N: I hope you're all going, "WHAAAATTTTTT?!"
