Chapter 11
"Alex," Marissa whispered as the two climbed down the stairs, trying their best to be stealth and so far, it was working. "Do you think this is a good idea?" the brunette questioned as she alternated from looking up at the door of her parent's room and back down watching her steps.
Her one of her feet descends on the carpet as she replied in a hush tone, "It's a little late to be thinking that. I don't think they'll notice anywhere, everyone's fast asleep." Alex turned her head slightly towards Marissa's direction. "Don't tell me you're chickening out?"
Even as they stood in the dark, Marissa could she Alex's lips curling into a smirk. "No!" she whispered harshly. "I grew up in a neo-hippie household remember, this to me is nothing. I've done worse than making love in my parent's greenhouse."
Alex began heading towards the direction of the front door while Marissa took another glance upstairs before following the blonde's lead.
When they reached the front porch Marissa let out a sigh of relief before her face furrowed in confusion. "Why couldn't we just use my bedroom?"
"It's right next to your parents', remember? They could easily hear us."
"Well, okay, then why can't we use your room?"
Alex smiled. "It's next to your sister's."
"So unfair," Marissa whined.
Alex reached for both Marissa's hands as her face grew concern. "Hey, if you're not comfortable with this, we could always wait when we get back to New York?"
Marissa squeezed the blonde's hands. "No, I can't wait that long," she let out, embarrassed. The expression on Alex's face mirrored Marissa as she face broke into a sheepish smile. Marissa bit her lips and grew more bashful by the second.
"I can't wait for that long either," Alex breathed out. She was caught by surprise when Marissa leaned forward and brushes her lips against hers. Laughing into the kiss, Alex murmured, "I really like your lips."
The taller girl placed both her palms on Alex's cheeks as she smiles against the blonde's dewy lips before grazing it. "Hmm…my lips seem to like yours too."
Alex emitted a chuckle as she pulled away and laid her face into the crook of the brunette's neck. Marissa held Alex closer, reveling the warmth coming from the blonde's body. The couple parted as Alex flashed Marissa another grin. "Come on, we can't just keep swaying together here all night. We have something important to do." Then she dashed across the driveway as Marissa soon followed her.
"Can't believe this. It's as though we're playing catching."
"Well, you wouldn't bulge away from that spot if I didn't do this."

Kaitlin stared at the ceiling. She blew out a bored sigh. As usual, she had trouble sleeping. She was feeling too restless to relax and slump her way into sleep. She got off the bed and trudged across the room for her guitar. But her eyes soon fell onto the box that sat on top of the dresser and soon decided against the guitar.
Opening the lid of the box, Kaitlin grinned upon the side of the joints.
She fixed her mind on smoking away the night.

"I can't believe we're spending the eve of thanksgiving, here! In a strip club!"
"I don't mind!" Seth shouted as he beamed at the scene around him. "I don't mind it at all! It's firefighters night!" He clasped her hands together in delight. "Look at that eye-candy."
Summer's eyes diverted to the direction her friend was pointing at. She reeled back slightly before exclaiming, "He's hot!" And then Summer fanned herself.
"I know," Zach piped. "Blonde, tanned and those six-packs, killer!" He cheered when the dancer they were referring to ripped off the wife beater he was wearing and threw it into the frenzy crowd.
Summer fished out a handful of cash from her purse and held them in the air. "Over here! Over here!"
The dancer noticed Summer calling him and he sashayed over to their side. Seth resembled a boy given a present on Christmas as he marveled at the guy who currently stood on the stage. His grin grew wider when the blonde dancer bend down as Summer tugged the waistband of his pants and puts the cash into it. He began swaying his hips in front of them as the other patrons shrieked over the loud pumping techno music.
"Do it again! Do it again!" Summer screeched.
"Quick Summer, give him money again!" Seth ordered.
&&&&
She lit the joint and inhaled it. Seconds later she puffs away, liking the desired affect it had on her.
Kaitlin began sauntering over to the greenhouse – she secret spot for smoking pot ever since she was fifteen.

Alex leaned down on to the grass as she watches Marissa hovering above her. The brunette straddled her as she gave Alex a tiny smile. The blonde didn't once main the rather hard surface of the ground, she was too busy gazing into Marissa's beautiful face.
"Are you okay?"
"Um hmm." Alex couldn't even form the words. She swallowed a lump, feeling nervous.
Marissa inched closer before her lips descend on Alex's gently. As always, the blonde responded eagerly. Alex's lips parted beneath the brunette's, welcoming her and inviting her in. Alex's arms came up to twine around Marissa's neck while the girl on top laid her weight lightly on the blonde. They kissed for long moments as if they were starved for the taste of each other, but it wasn't enough to ease the hunger and it was evident when Marissa ran her hands upwards against Alex's ribs, brunching the material of the pajamas.
The blonde sighed against her lips, encouraged by the respond Marissa up the ante and boldly grazed her fingers against Alex's stomach –blazing the blonde's skin. Alex responded with a move of her on, running her hands underneath Marissa's tee shirt. The brunette reveled in the pleasure from Alex's palms, soft and warm, on her abdomen creeping up to her bosom area. Distracted, she drew back from the kiss and caught her breath as Alex boldly ran her fingers over bare chest, exploring. With her encouragement, the brunette shrugged out of her tee shirt and carelessly dropping it to the floor.
She was about to meet Alex in another round of starry-eyed kisses when someone exclaimed.
"Holy shit!"
They halted their movements and reflectively turned to the direction where the sound was from. And to their horror, there stood Kaitlin in the dark with a joint in her mouth. Red-faced, Marissa moved away from Alex as she searches for her discarded top. Alex fixed her pajamas as she stood up looking flustered.
"Kaitlin, what the hell are you doing here?" Marissa demanded as she finishes putting on her top.
"Smoking pot. What the hell are you doing here?"
"It wasn't a rocket science. Figure it out yourself."
Alex stood quiet in her spot, suddenly not knowing how to react to the situation.
"You were having sex!"
Marissa rolled her eyes at her sister's outburst while Alex's face grew even redder.
"You were having sex? Here? How adventurous." Then Kaitlin started laughing, clutching her stomach. "Lemme guess…"
"I'd rather you don't."
"It wasn't your first time doing it right?" Kaitlin smirked.
Marissa's eyes bulged.
Alex felt faint. She chastised herself. After all, it was her idea.
&&&&
"O-mi-god…" Seth trailed off he gawked at the sight of Johnny Harper stashing cash in the dancer's underwear before dragging him down for a demanding kiss.
"O-mi-god," Summer repeated as her jaw hung opened as she stared wide-eyed at Alex's boyfriend.
Zach tried to say something but he was too stupefied to do so.
"Why the hell is he kissing him?" Summer asked.
"O-mi-god…" Seth trailed off. "Is he gay?"
"Omigod…" both Summer and Zach said in unison.

2 days later
Alex glided her fingers over Marissa's milky skin before sliding down along her ribs. Splaying her fingers wide, she caressed the brunette eagerly, possessively.
Forcing her mind away from the pleasurable sensation of Alex's touch, Marissa pushed her t-shirt up and encouraged her to pull it over her head. Next she unfastened Alex's bra, baring the breasts as she paused, savoring their absolute perfection. Marissa let her eyes wandered over Alex's pale smooth skin, and the pale rose of her taut nipples. Alex blushes slightly over Marissa's deep stare, feeling slightly conscious.
Marissa looked up and met Alex's eyes. "You beautiful."
Soon, she bent down blew on one of Alex's nipple and watched it pucker before lowering her head and taking the tip between her lips.
The girl beneath gasped at the pleasure she was receiving from Marissa. The brunette continued laving her breast as she sank back on the bed, grasping the girl's head and held it closer to her. Her hands splayed over Marissa's bare back. Marissa took her time, moving from one breast to the other and making Alex crazy with desire. Beneath, the blonde shifted restlessly and her hands moved frantically all over Marissa's skin.
Alex wanted more. And she wanted it now.
She took Marissa's hand to the waistband of her underwear while the brunette glanced up to her face, her eyes now darkened and glistering.
Alex locked her eyes with Marissa's. "Marissa…make love to me."
"We'll do it together…"
&&&&
They now lay in comfortable silence, in the motel room with contented smiles on their face. Marissa brought Alex closer, spooning the blonde as the quilt covered their naked forms.
"I love you," Marissa whispered into Alex's ear. It was the first time she had said it, she felt it was the right time.
Alex stayed quiet for a moment before a small smile curled her lips. She brought one of Marissa's hands to her lips and kissed it.
Turning around, the blonde brushes her lips against the brunette's.
"I love you too."
Marissa's face broke into a huge grin as Alex returned the gesture with one of her own.
As they lay on the bed, canoodling, Marissa suddenly burst out into a giggle.
"Stop tickling me."
Alex's brows wrinkled in confusion. "I'm not tickling you."
"Yeah, right. Then why is my stomach ticklish?"
"I don't know…"
Marissa's face grew somber. Slowly, she held the hem of the quilt before lifting it up.
"Aaaahhhh! Fucking roach on me!"
