Saga of a Viper Pilot
Chapter 11 – Starts and stops.
No One's POV
Tori, though she had dreamed of it a thousand times, didn't expect Jade to suddenly sit up and kiss her. Though Tori was quite surprised, her heart soon began to race as her dream had suddenly become true. Falling into it, Tori wrapped her arms around Jade began to kiss back.
For Jade she simply felt like a dam had broken. Tori had had come to mean so much to her in such a short time. Jade who was so hurt and in need of love, affection and some sense of being needed let herself go. She had decided to let her passion take her wherever it would. Though she had never kissed a woman before, she found herself quickly getting into it.
Tori who had a huge crush on Jade already, grown much closer to Jade in the last few days only deepening her feelings for the pilot. Like the woman she was kissing, she also felt a desperate need to be loved. So much of what she had loved had already been ripped away and she desperately wanted to fill it.
Tori eased Jade down onto the bed and moved on top of her, once again initiating a kiss. Jade pressed her tongue forward, begging for entrance which Tori granted instantly. Both women only cared about the moment; everything else around them seemed to simply stop. After a few minutes of making out Tori moved to Jade's neck and began to nibble and kiss. Something she remembered Zhara used to love. She felt guilty for a moment as Zhara passed through her mind, but she could only mourn so long.
But deep down, by making love with Jade, Tori knew she was finally saying goodbye to Zhara. Jade was her love now, she was sure of it and would protect her love with every ounce of her being.
"Take me. Please. Love me. "Jade said half moaning, half pleading.
Tori sat up, smiled and quickly removed her shirt and bra, tossing them on the floor. Not wanting the passion to cool down she moved off the bed and stripped out of her boots and pants, as Jade did the same.
For an instant, Tori admired the pale but perfect form of Jade as she lay there. Then Tori got into bed and once again let herself go. She knew all this had happened so quickly and it may not work out, but Tori simply didn't care. Jade felt much the same way.
"I've never done this with a woman. I'm not sure if I'll be able to pleasure you." The normally confident Viper pilot said, letting a good amount of uncertainty into her voice.
Tori looked into Jade's eyes with a confident smile. "Just that you're with me, is more pleasure than I even dreamed of. Jade. I have a confession to make. I've wanted to be with you since I first saw you on the acropolis. You're beautiful, sexy and you take my heart every time I see you. Please let me pleasure you."
Jade smirked. "So I had an admirer then?"
"Yes you did." Tori said as she put her lips around Jade's left nipple and began to suckle and bite.
"Oh my god, what is she doing to me?" Jade thought to herself as she found herself getting more and more aroused by the minute. With Beck it was slow and plodding, taking him a while to get Jade' s motor running. Tori somehow just kicked into gear and it roared to life.
Tori kept lavishing affection on Jade's breasts and Torso, getting the pilot more worked up by the moment. Soon enough her core was dripping wet in anticipation. But it was more than physical with Tori. Jade felt a deeper connection being formed. It was both beautiful and a bit scary at the same time. But Jade pushed her reservations aside and just let it flow. While Tori did her work, Jade took time to gently caress and run her fingers up and down Tori's tanned skin. That in itself was very pleasurable.
Eventually Jade could feel the pressure building up inside of her and she desperately needed her release. "Tori please, make me cum. Please love me."
Not wanting to deny her for another second, Tori quickly moved between Jade's legs and began to run her tongue all around Jade's clit for a short bit before sucking it. Jade's brain at this point was wracked with pleasure as she could feel her orgasm building and building. No one had ever brought her so quickly and so perfectly to a climax, than the beautiful woman she was with.
Tori then slipped her index finger into Jade's vagina and started to move it in and out. Jade who was already on the edge, suddenly felt herself being lifted to another plateau of pleasure. Instinctively she pressed her thighs a bit closer to Tori's head as if she wanted her to stay there permanently.
Tori could hear Jade's breathing and moaning getting louder and louder as the she was coming closer. A moment later, Jade cried out as her whole body convulsed with pleasure. The orgasm hit Jade and seemed to jellify her insides and obliterate her brain. Jade would later say, she actually saw stars. Tori meanwhile was busy and rather happily getting her face covered with Jade's juices.
A few minutes later they both calmed down and Tori pulled a still hazy eyed jade into her arms.
"How's that sweetie?" Tori whispered into Jade's ear.
"God yes." Was all jade muttered.
A few minutes, still very much caught up in the heat of the moment, Jade flipped Tori onto her back and began to make love to the med tech. While inexperienced, Jade quickly found a rhythm and did simply what felt right. She spent a bit more time exploring and kissing the various parts of the body than Tori did. The more she did it, the more it felt right to her. By the end, Jade realized that she was most certainly bisexual. Soon Tori was gripping the sheets as she was brought to orgasm.
They spent a bit more time, caressing, kissing and exploring each other before the lovemaking stopped. Finally they lay in each other's arms and could feel themselves coming down. Jade wanted to say something to Tori, to describe what she felt. But she wasn't too sure of what she felt. Her insides were a jumble of conflicting emotions. Instead she said nothing. At the same time she could feel some guilt creep in around the edges of her consciousness as Becks face crept into her mind.
Tori wasn't sure if she should stay or go. She wasn't sure if she should even ask. The room was soon populated by a rather awkward silence. Taking a risk Tori decided to go back to her quarters before the silence got any more awkward.
"I should get going." Tori remarked as she got up and started to get dressed. Tori herself was suddenly having doubts. She quickly began to worry that they had pushed it too far too fast. She didn't want to lose jade and was fearful that what they did was a mistake.
Jade sat up and nodded, looking slightly embarrassed for a moment. "Yes. We still have 3 ships to finish surveying tomorrow." That feeling of guilt started to suddenly grow and quickly overpowered the other parts of her consciousness. Though she wanted what happened, she wasn't sure if it was right. A hundred questions suddenly ran through her mind.
Jade once again found herself unable to think of something to say and quietly watched Tori finished getting dressed. For a moment the two looked at each other with a sense of longing, which was quickly clouded over with doubt.
"See you tomorrow." Tori said as she turned and walked out of the door. Jade couldn't help but notice the slight look of disappointment on her face.
Alone in her room, Jade was left only with her thoughts. That sense of guilt suddenly grew in size. After all hit had been less than a week, since that horrible day when she lost Beck, Amber, Mara and everything else she loved. All this between Tori and her had gotten so deep and intense so quickly. It was wonderful, but at the same time it scared Jade. She also felt like somehow she had betrayed Beck. She simply didn't know what to think or what even to do.
Sitting alone, feeling horribly conflicted and guilt ridden, Jade burst into tears.
Fearful and upset that she had made the wrong choice by moving forward too quickly, Tori wanted to cry herself. But she resisted it as she knew Trina would fly off the handle if she so much as even suspected that she slept with Jade. Tori found herself wishing one of her other two sisters were there, as they would have better understood and not been prone to saying I told you so as Trina would.
"You alright?" Trina said as Tori entered the room.
Tori covered up with a fake smile. "I'm fine, I'm just a bit tired. It's hard work surveying all the ships. I'm turning in Trina."
Trina gave her a dubious look but only said good night.
Lying in bed a few minutes later Tori could only think how simple it was when she was aboard the Acropolis and admired Jade from afar. Tori went to sleep expecting the worst.
The next morning Tori, Jade and the rest of the team gathered on the flight deck. Tori gave Jade a slight smile, but only got a curt and rather emotionless nod from Jade in return. Immediately her spirits began to fall as Jade went into their assignments for the day.
"We have 3 ships to survey and after that we will have completed our assignment. Let's get moving." Jade said as she entered the shuttle without saying another word. Jade wanted to say something to Tori, but was simply too afraid and guilt ridden to say anything.
Upon arriving on the first of the ships to survey, which was a textile factory ship, Tori walked up to Jade expecting to work by her side as she had the last two days.
"Tori, I'm going to be in the engine room for a bit, You work by yourself today. Let me know if you have any problems." Jade said before she walked off
The day continued with Jade being very professional but distant to her. Tori ended up working alone or with one of the other members of the team. By the end of the day, Tori had incorrectly assumed that Jade was ashamed of sleeping with her. Jade in fact was afraid of the strong emotional connection she felt with Tori. On top of that she was wracked with guilt over thoughts of Beck. Jade was essentially paralyzed with indecision and multiple conflicting emotions.
When they finished for the day and had all the ships had been surveyed, with people needing medical attention all transported to the Galactica for treatment. By the end of the day, Jade felt worse than she did when she started. Staying by herself during the day only made the guilt grow, as now she felt bad for ignoring Tori. But at the same time she couldn't face Tori.
As the crew departed the shuttle upon arriving back at the Galactica Tori had convinced herself it was over. Though she was upset with Jade for blowing her off, she was equally upset with herself for pushing things too quickly.
"Maybe I just scared her away." Tori thought sadly as she departed the shuttle without so much as even looking at Jade.
Jade felt a strong stab of guilt in her heart watching a very dejected Tori walk off. She desperately wanted to say or do something, but couldn't.
Half an hour later, an upset Jade was sitting up in Cat's room in the med bay explaining what happened.
"So did you not like it, did you not connect?" Cat asked.
Jade vigorously shook her head. "No. It was beautiful and incredible and I felt something deep inside of me. But it scared me Cat. It scared me and I felt like I had betrayed beck. I've been a total mess today; I did my work, but was barely functional. I kept wanting to say something, but each time I thought of it, the words didn't come. Now she probably hates me. I don't even know what to do. I can only imagine what Amber would have thought."
"About you and Tori. I'd imagine a bit disappointed in you."
"Why, because I was with a girl?"
Cat chuckled. "Heavens no. Because, you clammed up. Kept it to yourself. If you're scared, than just say I'm scared. As far as the fact that you're interested in a girl, she'd probably laugh."
A puzzled look came to Jade's face. "Why?"
Cat took a deep breath. "Jade. I'm sorry to tell you this, but you're not always the most approachable person. You were gone a lot of the time once you joined the military and even before that you frequently. appeared unapproachable. Jade, Amber was bisexual."
Jade sat there, stunned, as the words sank in. "What? She never told me?" In fact Jade was hurt, her sister never told her. "How do you know?"
Cat sighed. "I wanted to tell you, but it wasn't my place to out either Amber or the person she was with. That last summer at the resort. Do you remember Dione, the lifeguard from Leonis with the really short curly blonde hair."
"Yeah, she and amber were good friends, they really hit it….You mean Amber and Dione?"
Cat nodded. They only dated for about 2 and a half months before Dione went off to college. I only found out about as it ended. I overheard them talking one day in the lifeguard shack. I'll admit I eavesdropped, a rather bad habit of mine. They were talking about having long distant relationship as Dione was going to attend school on Virgon at the end of the summer. It must have fizzled out as 2 months later Amber started to date Mara's father."
"Why didn't you tell me Amber?" Jade said aloud as a tear came to her eye. "Was I that horrible a sister?"
"Jade don't beat yourself up. Maybe she was more like you than you thought. She just kept it in, like you do. You also went off to the academy, so frankly you weren't around much after that. "
Jade slumped in her chair and said nothing. "My own sister and I didn't even know."
"Jade. I'm sorry Amber never told you. I couldn't say anything, as neither one of them was out. Dione's family as I remember was extremely conservative. Perhaps Amber kept her secret not to hurt you, but to protect Dione. But back to your immediate problem. You need to talk to Tori."
"How?"
Cat smiled. "Here's an idea. Take her on a date. Tell her how you feel. If you want to take things slow, then tell her that. If you're afraid, then tell her that. She likes you and if you're honest, I think she'll respond in kind."
Jade suddenly lit up. "I know what to do."
Cat made a motion for the door. "Then get out of this hospital room and say something for once. Do you know people at the resort we worked at used to think you were mute. Or at least that is what they'd joke about behind your back. Now go."
Jade smiled and left, hoping Tori would want to do what she had in mind. After grabbing what she needed and getting proper authorization she went down to Tori's quarters. As she entered, she hoped Trina was on duty.
Jade breathed a sigh of relief to see Trina wasn't there and thankfully no one else was either. Tori was however and Jade could tell she probably had been crying recently. Tori sat up as she approached with a guarded expression.
"Jade?"
Jade briefly didn't know what to say. "Do you want to go flying with me? In a viper." Jade said, sounding really nervous.
Tori's eyes opened just a bit wider. "Flying?"
Jade nodded. "Yeah. I can take you out on the two seat trainer. You can even fly for a bit yourself, if you'd like. I thought you may enjoy it. That and maybe…um..you know we could talk. Alone."
Jade nervously bit her lip in anticipation and waited for Tori's answer. Tori wanted to spend time with Jade more than anything, but part of her was afraid this was just a fancy way of getting dumped.
But looking into Jade's eyes, she saw a look of nervous anticipation. She could also see a bit of remorse in her eyes as well. Tori quickly sensed that she wasn't going to get dumped and Jade was making an effort to make things up to her. "Ok Jade."
A look of relief came to Jade's face as she handed Tori a duffel bag. "You'll find black rubbery type suit in there. Put it on under your uniform. It's a pressure suit and will help protect you from the g forces you can experience in a viper. They're standard for all viper pilots."
Tori grabbed pulled the suit out of the bag and quickly put it on and put her uniform over it. While slightly uncomfortable, it wasn't all too bad.
Tori looked at Jade with a hopeful smile. "Well you want to take me flying, then take me flying."
