SOUL DEEP

KATE & RANA PART 10

I belong to you…..

Carla checked in on Kate, "Chelle, says you've been out a couple of days, are you alright?" Kate was bundle up on the sofa, "I'm fine, just under the weather," Carla sat next to her, "And I know you too well Kate Connor, fess up," She playfully prodded her, "I broke up with Rana," She Stared with a sadden look. "Oh," Carla grunted but wasn't surprised, "I love her, but I can't play second fiddle to her family issues or the Nazir's," Carla shook her head, "Its difficult to get involved with someone, especially when there are emotional and physical ties, but I'm your sister and I'm here for you anytime you need me, we can talk," She offered, Kate twitched her lips. "I knew better to get involved with a straight woman, a married straight women, I don't think Rana really thought things through or the ramifications that could happen," Carla Ran her hand through her sister's hair, "She loves you, but I'm afraid she's caught up and it's the hardest thing she's ever had to do, give up on her family, the Nazir's are a security blanket and Yasmeen is very supportive," Carla noted hoping to cheer Kate up.

"I still feel stupid, useless and jealous at times, Rana blames me when something goes wrong she says I'm not properly addressing things with her and she lashes out," Kate remarked, "How do you really feel about her?" Carla probed, "You know how I feel, I do love her but it's not that easy, I've tried so hard and its hurt me the things she's said, her actions," She answered with angst in her voice. "Do you think a trip back to Devon would help?" Kate shifted her head back towards her sister, "I can't run anymore, I can't let Zeedan or the Nazir's think they've won, I want to hold my head up, think things through with a clear mind, I'm not sure I can work things out with Rana, not now anyways she has to get past her family situation," Kate groaned, "Sophie?" Carla dropped her name, "I know how crappy she must feel, I've hurt her by leading her on she was a good friend but I don't think I can repair the damage that I've done she has deep feelings for me," She replied. "You need to get back on your feet Kate, Rana will come around you just have to be more patient," Kate took Carla's advise and decided she needed to come up with a plan.

Roy placed his hand on Carla's shoulder as she set down, "Tea please Roy," She mentioned, 'I'll bring it by in a moment," Rana entered, "Rana," Carla cleared her throat, "Hello Carla," She appeared shy, "On your way to work?" She asked, Roy brought her tea, "Uh yes, I," Carla interjected, "Please if you have a few minutes I'd like to talk to you," Rana nervously clutched the strap on her purse. "Sure, I'll have a tea and scone please," Roy nodded, "Look Carla if this about Kate, I believe she's made her decision," Carla mildly groaned, "And how do you feel about it?" Rana lowered her shoulders, "I'm not good, at all, but I understand how she feels," Roy sat her cup of tea and scone in front of her, "Thanks," She looked up at him, "Kate is devastated and doesn't know which way to turn, I'm concerned for her she seems depressed and lonely," Rana eyed her, "She doesn't want to see me she made herself very clear," Carla tried to gage Rana's response, "Do you love her?" Rana looked around, "I do and I want to be with her," She stared with a tear in her eye, "What's it going to take for you two to mend fences?" Carla inquired, "Kate doesn't want it, I'm just hoping she will come around and change her mind, but I must respect her wishes," Carla clasped Rana by the hand, "If you love my sister then you need to stop this now, she's in love with you she's never felt this way before about anyone and she already feels like it's a loosing battle," Rana pursed her lips, "What do you think I should do? She's made it clear she doesn't want to see me," Carla tapped her fingernails on the table, "You need a night alone, I think I have an idea," She winked, Rana smiled.

Michelle set the vase of colorful flowers towards the edge of the bar, "Hey, Robert send you these?" Kate touched a petal and then moved behind the counter to put on her apron, "No actually they're for you," Kate stared blankly, "Me," She slipped the card from the envelope, "I know these last few days have been hard but I want you to know, I love you with all of my heart, Rana," Kate rubbed her thumb across the card slipping it back securely in the envelope, she smelled them taking in the scent of their blossoms, "Rana?" Michelle asked plainly, "Yes, Rana, it's been hard, too hard," She braced herself against the countertop trying not to cry. "Work the lunch shift, it's going to be busy today," Kate began preparing for the lunch crowd, "Hey sis," Aiden walked in, "Oh, hey what brings you around?" He shrugged, "Nothing really, are you working this evening?" He asked, "No, five, got something planned?" She quizzed him, "Yeah, actually I want to find something special for dad and Jenny for their trip to Spain," He told her, "Window shopping?" She giggled in response, "Uh, no I've picked a few things out on line and I thought you could help me," He grinned knowing she couldn't refuse him. "Be by after work," She voiced in agreement.

Kate showered and dressed casual for a meeting with Aiden she strolled down the cobbles towards his flat she pulled the wrap she had around her shoulders tighter, "It's a bit chilly," Gemma passed her by on the sidewalk, "Hope Aiden has the kettle on," She mentioned with a smile to Gemma, Kate slowly walked up the stairs noticing a crack in the door. "Hello, Aiden," She slightly pushed in the door, it opened exposing the air to the scent of lit candles she entered, "Aiden," She called out but there wasn't an answer. Kate looked around, Rana stepped from the shadows, "Kate," She whispered, Kate felt lost her breath shallow her heart beating in fast pace. "What's this?" She questioned, "We need alone time, both Carla and Aiden helped me to plan this she moved closer to her. "Rana, I can't," She spoke, "Yes you can, just give me a little time," She threw her arms across Kate's shoulders pulling her in, "I love you Kate," Rana stared with her dark eyes, "I love you too, but," Rana dropped her lips to Kate's in a deep warm kiss, Kate pulled back her hands finding their way to Rana's waist. "You know things are difficult, you've been in bits and," Rana hushed her, "I need you, I want you and I never want to lose you," She begged.

Rana took Kate by the hand leading her to a small bedroom she opened the door, the room dimly lit the bed covered with pink rose petals. Kate furrowed her brow, "My you've given a lot of thought to this," She voiced quietly, "I love you, can't you see?" Her question heartfelt, Kate grasped Rana by the hand drawing her closer they kissed gently, Rana groaned needy for the love making she knew Kate had to offer. "Kate, please," She mumbled, Kate began to unbutton her blouse exposing the smooth and well, tanned skin on Rana's chest and abdomen. "So sexy, how I've missed this," Her lips dove into the side of Rana's neck, Rana gasped her lips gaped letting the air out in sweet release, "Kate you know what I want," She slipped Kate's shirt over her head quickly unzipping her jeans and working her tongue down the top of her cleavage. They knelt in the middle of the bed facing each other their nude flesh glistened in the flickering light of the candles. Hands caressing each other's skin in certain sexual desire, Rana lay Kate down spreading her legs and mounting her she gazed into Kate's wanting eyes her lips quivered, "How I love you," Rana grinned, "Don't tell me show me," Kate implored.

Rana's fingertips ran circular patterns along Kate's jawline she looked again into Kate's eyes without a word she kissed her tenderly, Kate's hands slowly maneuvered there way down the sides of Rana's curves she grabbed her hips pulling them closer together, "Oh," Rana moaned, Kate rose up turning her over and working her way down to Rana's navel she tongued it as Rana's hands ran through the long strands of her locks. Kate stopped looking up to Rana, "Tell me," She whispered sexually, "Kate," She moaned pushing her into her crevice Kate's tongue and mouth lapped and sucked Rana's clit causing an explosion of climaxes she entered her fingers inside her wet void pumping and causing more intense orgasms. Rana arched herself up Kate released her fingers moving back up to Rana's face she kissed her, her teeth clinching her lower lip in a twist. "I can hardly breathe," Rana rambled, "Too much?" Kate teased, "It's never too much when you make love to me, I've never felt more complete," She assured her. Rana rolled over onto Kate she sucked each nipple of her breasts her fingers sliding into her opening Kate trembled at the steady rhythm of Rana's fingers. "More, deeper," Kate moaned, Rana slipped another finger inside of Kate she reeled with orgasms.

Kate and Rana lie side by side, "Kate don't ever leave me," Rana rose up on her elbow and ran her index finger along the side of Kate's face, "It's a lot Rana, with Zee, you know it," She answered staring at the ceiling. "I'm sorry, I never meant for these things to happen, I break things Kate, I want to take it slow, I do but I don't want to live without you either," She admonished.

"It's not about living without me Rana, its about having your priorities straight, I'm not in the mood for playing second fiddle to the Nazir's, you wanted me, this and I've tried to be as supportive as I can, but its painful, you with him, you kissed, I shouldn't be angry," Rana immediately kissed Kate to hush her, "It won't be forever," She pulled away, "Rana," She kissed Kate again, "Please try to understand, I've lost my parents, Alya," Kate sighed. "You have me and my family are supportive of us," She mentioned sitting up in bed. Rana lowered her head, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings," She was insistent, "I have a good family, they will love you because you love me, they'll only see the good in you, because I love you," Rana snuggled tighter to her, "I want that Kate, I do," She kissed the side of her cheek.

"I should go," Kate mention crawling from bed, "Please just awhile longer, you don't have to go, really," Rana cried out grabbing Kate by the arm, "A perfect evening indeed, but it always gets sidetracked by the mention of Zeedan or Alya, your family, what they did to you is unforgivable," Rana grimaced listening to Kate, "It hurts, they're my parents and I love them, I want them in my life and I want them to love you, accept you," She remarked. "Yeah, fancy that ever happening," She complained quietly, climbing back into bed, Rana covered them up she lie in the crook of Kate's arm thinking. Kate's lips found the top of Rana's head kissing it gently, "I love you, that's all I know and I fear losing you, what we have," Rana heard her words clutching her tighter, "I won't lose you, you are my life, I've given up everything just to be with you," Rana replied in acknowledgement. "We don't have a life, together I mean," Kate squinted her eyes continuing, "Its almost like living out of a suitcase, you don't know where you'll be next," Rana groaned, "I promise as soon as I can we will live together," She reminded her of her intentions. "I hear you, but when I mention those things you get uptight," She sighed, "Kate not telling me about asking Alya to move for my benefit was out of order, I owe Zee," Kate interjected, "Owing Zee is tearing us apart, you don't owe him anything and he's daft if he thinks you do," She shrugged.

"I don't want to argue, its moot," Rana crossed her arms to her bare, chest saying. "We have to talk about it, I'm tired of sweeping it under the rug, I've said it before I'm not going to play second fiddle, I want you, you should wake up with me every morning, you belong to me and not Zeedan, hell he never really had you," Kate mumbled loudly. Rana giggled trying to ease the tension they were experiencing, "How you've made me laugh, spending time with you, what we've had as mates meant more to me, I knew something different was happening, what I was feeling was beginning to eat away at me, telling you I wasn't happy in my marriage, telling myself I loved Zee and trying to convince myself that I loved him enough to stay," Kate's index finger found its way to Rana's lips, "Shh, I know you love me, you don't have to explain yourself away," She answered sweetly. "Tell me you love me," Rana pled with Kate, "I never loved anyone the way I love you, I had girlfriends, acquaintances, yes, but no one like you," She smiled forgetting their past arguments. "But in a way, I hurt, like a cold dull ache, seeing you with them, wanting to feel your touch when I know I can't at that moment, doing things with my family wanting you there," Rana reached up her lips meeting Kate's tenderly.

"You have me, all of me, I promise that Kate, you have me forever, you're the one I love and I want to spend the rest of my life with," She reassured Kate they held each other never wanting to let go. "This moment could last forever and I wouldn't complain," Rana shrugged in a whisper, "It's true, laying here, in your arms, Rana, I want this for the both of us you know that, but you must go back to number six and me back to the flat and all of its hostilities," She mildly complained. "We have tonight, I want to wake up next to you in the morning, make you coffee and breakfast," Rana answered in a snicker, "Where exactly is Aiden?" Kate arched her brow asking, Rana smiled widely, "Away for the evening, the flat is ours, no hassles, no interruptions, we planned it that way," She promised Kate, "Breakfast and coffee?" Kate picked, "Oi, you know I'll do anything to make you happy my love," Rana remarked. "Well then I should get some sleep, don't want to miss that breakfast in bed," She rolled over ignoring Rana and pulling the covers up over her shoulders, "Kate Connor," Rana nudged her, "How can you think of sleep?" She seriously inquired, Kate giggled as Rana began to tickle her waist she turned over and faced Rana staring into her eyes, "How can I not love you," She mumbled, Rana kissed her softly, "Then make love to me," She rolled on top of her a night of passion followed.
