A/N: Contains Strap on sex

X

There were no chips in the kitchen. Peridot found the ice pack they used in their lunch box, but they couldn't find any chips. They hoped Amethyst would forgive them for the absent chips and for giving her a black eye.

Just as they had decided that the bag of caramel popcorn would have to do, Lapis popped into the kitchen. She made a beeline for the freezer and took out two fudge popsicles, acknowledging Peridot with a nod.

"Lazuli!"

Peridot hadn't meant to shout. Lapis turned in the middle of unwrapping the first popsicle.

"Yeah?"

"M-my girlfriend is here."

"I know." She bit down on the popsicle with her teeth. Peridot flinched.

"Just thought you'd like to know."

"Okay."

As they headed back upstairs, they noticed Lapis had gathered a bunch of blankets and her clownfish pillow on the couch. She was watching a movie with the sound off, subtitles on, wearing her headphones. Peridot knit their brows, thinking it strange; then Amethyst called for them from their room and it all made sense.

Peridot had always meant to soundproof their walls, long before Amethyst came into their life. Now they realized implementing a sound barrier between their and Lapis's room should have been their first priority- not building up a repertoire of sex toys.

Peridot was naturally quiet, a force of habit from living with their mother; Amethyst was anything but that, loud and brazen. She had shouted, "Fuck!" and "Damn!" and "Peridot!" like a mantra while sitting on Peridot's face.

Lapis had heard everything.

With that in mind, Peridot hurried faster up the stairs. Amethyst mistook the distress for remorse and gently patted them on the arm.
"Hey, it's okay. I'm not mad," she said, taking the ice pack and bag of popcorn. She dug in without complaint, expertly holding the icepack to her swollen eye using her shoulder.

"I'm sorry," Peridot said again, sitting across from her, hands knotted in their lap. Suddenly they forgot that Lapis had heard everything.

"Psh. I've had worse. Though, you could have aimed for the eye that my hair is always covering up."

"Sorry."

"Stop saying that." She gently prodded at Peridot. "And you don't have to sit so far from me."

"Sorry," Peridot said again without thinking, and sat next to her.

Amethyst leaned against them, the bag of popcorn soon empty and tossed to the floor. They both sat like that in momentary silence as Amethyst pressed the cold compress to her eye and licked her fingers clean.

"Was that your roommate?"

"Who?" Peridot hadn't been paying attention, still feeling sorry for Amethyst's injury.

"The girl you were talking to downstairs."

"Oh." Peridot recollected themselves. "Yes."

"Do you think she heard us?" Amethyst smiled cheekily and began to pull the cold compress away. Her eye was swollen shut, ringed with a deep shade of purple. Amethyst made a joke that it was her favorite color, but Peridot wasn't laughing.

"I killed the mood," they said miserably.

"I'm still down."

"Really?" They wondered if it was insensitive to consider sex again, less than half an hour after clocking their girlfriend in the face with a dildo. But Amethyst sounded ready to move past the incident. She found the blindfold that had arrived with the nipple clamps Peridot had ordered and slipped it sideways over her face to cover her black eye, making a mock eye-patch.

"Yarrr." She took on a gravely voice and pulled Peridot by the front of their shirt. "Ready to plunder me booty, matey?"

This time Peridot couldn't help but laugh.

"I can't hear you."

Peridot kissed her in-between distracted giggles. "Aye, aye, Captain."

Amethyst tugged on the front of their shirt again, leading them on top of her as she lay back, her legs spread.

"You're still wet."

"Yeah, and-? What are you going to do about it?"

Peridot took in a sharp breath. "I'm going to fuck you," they whispered against her ear.

Amethyst wrapped one leg around their waist and grinded her hips against a phantom cock.

It took everything for Peridot to pull away from her. "Hold on. I have something." They reached in the nightstand drawer for the harness and quickly slipped it on. Amethyst's eyes widened, intrigued.

"Can you use this instead?" she asked, holding out the 'Purple Punisher' to Peridot.

"S-sure," they said, amazed by the girth of the toy. They could barely wrap their whole hand around it. Amethyst wasn't kidding when she said she needed something bigger.

The phallus stood pert in the harness. Peridot could feel the weight of it press indirectly against their clit. They could feel the power it held, under Amethyst's hungry gaze. This was yards away from the feeling they had experienced modeling the harness in front of Lapis's mirror. They had felt bold and confident then, but not like this.

Maybe it was the dildo that Amethyst had chosen, thicker than Peridot's fist. Maybe it was because Amethyst was watching them, leading the head of the phallus to her sex, that made them feel giddy and powerful.

"Alright, now move your hips," Amethyst said, her hand still between them, supporting the phallus as Peridot slowly slid inside of her.

"Like this?"

Amethyst shook her head. "You're using your legs too much. The hips." She nodded after a moment. "That's right, you're a fast learner, Peri-dactyl."

"I have an excellent teacher."

Amethyst snorted. "I'm going to tell Pearl that."

Peridot sighed. "Must you mention her?"

"Yeah, you're right. Pearl can be a total mood killer sometimes."

Peridot cupped her cheek and leaned in close, the rhythm of their thrusts growing in confidence, determined to distract her. "Amethyst?"

"Yeah?"

"You feel really good."

"But it's not the real thing."

Peridot rolled their eyes. All technicalities aside, Amethyst did feel nice. "I can feel your body wrapped around me. I can feel myself sinking into you, I can feel your heart pounding against my chest."

"You're sappy," Amethyst teased. "Go on."

Peridot did go on, but not in words. Their hands traced the outline of Amethyst's body, lingering over her breasts and hips, the dimple near her ass. Their fingers caught on the long platinum blonde strands spread out around her face like a halo and they held on as they frantically thrust inside of her.

Whatever idle conversation or retorts Amethyst might have made crumbled, in lieu of a string of curses and various nicknames she had for Peridot.

She did manage a few sentences. "You don't have to go fast, you know."

Peridot stopped, surprised. "I don't?"

"I like it slow and deep. I want to feel you, Peri- ah... yes...! Yes, exactly like that..." She laughed, both legs wrapped tight around Peridot's waist.

Peridot pressed their forehead against hers and they kissed, lips lingering, hands searching. Amethyst raised her hips to follow their slow thrusts. They were both languid, feeling as if they had all of the time in the world.

Amethyst cursed against their mouth, the volume escalating the closer she came to orgasm. She gasped, "You feel so good."

Peridot chuckled, victorious, dragging their nails down her arm, saying, "So you admit it. Even if it's not 'the real thing.'"

"Peri, you are the real deal."

"Who's the sappy one now?" The statement would have sounded like a retort if it weren't for the smile they gave, followed by a kiss. The kiss traveled from her lips down her neck, and lingered at her breasts, tracing the stretch marks.

Amethyst watched them, and Peridot wondered if she was self-conscious, but she didn't look away. Still, Peridot said, because they wanted to, "You're beautiful, Amethyst."

"You're not just saying that?"

"Never."

"Even with this nice shiner you left me?" She lifted up the blindfold that covered her left eye, then frowned, seeing that Peridot wasn't amused.

Peridot cleared their throat. "Yes."

They both decided not to talk after that, mouths preoccupied by deep kisses, hands knotted in bedsheets or each other's hair instead of gesturing. Even when covering her mouth, Amethyst was loud, and she screamed a slurry of expletives when she came. She laughed unapologetically about it afterwards. "You'd think with how loud I was that you were drilling me like a jackhammer or something."

Peridot laid beside her still wearing the harness, the dildo shining with a fresh sheen of their girlfriend's juices. They held hands, Amethyst staring at the ceiling, Peridot at her, an observation escaping their lips.

"That looked fun."

"I had a good time."

"No… I mean... I want to try it."

Amethyst shifted her weight onto her elbows, turning her attention away from the ceiling to Peridot. "Really?"

Seeing that they had piqued Amethyst's curiosity, Peridot nodded, biting their lip, playing with the dead skin around their fingers. "Yes."

Amethyst got up and didn't waste a beat before strapping on her own leather harness. Peridot watched in awe, anticipation thrumming through their body. The idea of putting something inside of themselves was new. They had never even used tampons before. They wondered what it would feel like.

"Does it hurt?" they asked, and Amethyst followed their gaze to the aptly named 'Purple Punisher.'

Amethyst cradled them in her arms, "I won't let it hurt."

"Maybe not that dick," Peridot said.

"Yeah, maybe not."

Peridot offered the dildo that had come with their own harness. Amethyst nodded and pushed it through the hole in the front of her harness.

"How do I look?" She put her hands on her hips, posing.

Peridot might have been drooling, their mouth was hanging open, barely managing to whisper, "You look awesome."

Amethyst chuckled, casually flipping her hair. "I know."

She did not pursue. She sat on the bed, leaning against the headboard, allowing Peridot to initiate at a pace they were comfortable with. Peridot made a slow crawl towards her. Unsure what to do next, they shakily asked.

"Suck," Amethyst replied, and gently led their head down, the silicone phallus bumping against their cheek. Amethyst rolled her hips, continuing to rub it in their face until Peridot caught the phallus in their hand and swallowed it between their ruddy lips.

Amethyst told them they were a natural. She doted on Peridot, hands always on their face, in their hair, moving them how she wanted. She laughed, saying, "You just take it." That was true; Peridot was naturally submissive and eager, so eager to please Amethyst. They wanted to do everything right, and if not correctly, then at least enthusiastically.

"How are we going to do this?" Amethyst asked, staring at the UFO boxers Peridot was wearing. "I guess I could pull them off to the side?" She waited for Peridot's permission, or another suggestion.

Peridot had an idea and drew the covers over them both. "Promise me you won't pull the covers off," they stipulated.

"Promise."

Peridot inhaled, exhaled, then began to wiggle out of their boxers under the privacy of the covers. Amethyst was close and she felt soft curly hair brush against her thigh.

"Shall we begin?"

"Sure- yeah," Amethyst said, and reached under the covers.

Peridot caught her hand. "I'll put it in."

"Sorry."

"It's all right." Peridot's voice was soft. Their gaze was drawn downwards, concentrating. They tugged at the strap on, leading it to their sex.

"Are you wet enough?" Amethyst asked.

"Soaking."

Amethyst kissed their neck as they slid the dildo inside themselves. Peridot made a myriad of noises and shifted restlessly, trying to adjust to the feeling. Amethyst didn't push. She simply encouraged their efforts with kisses, caresses, and the occasional firm grip.

Peridot gasped and said, "It's in."

"How do you feel?"

Peridot shifted restlessly again. "I'm not sure. It feels tight, like... like I don't want to let go?" They shook their head, dissatisfied with that explanation. "It doesn't feel unpleasant. Just strange. Different."

"Do you want to-"

"Of course I want to keep going." They had only scratched the surface.

"I'm going to move," Amethyst warned.

"I'm ready."

Amethyst was slow, her thrusts shallow. Peridot gripped her tightly, panting, acclimating to the sensation. They said it burned slightly, not unpleasantly. "It's not pain."

"Yeah, I know what you mean. It's different, isn't it?"

Peridot nodded. "It feels like a rubber band being stretched out. Only inside of me."

"But you're all right? You want to keep going?"

At Peridot's nod, Amethyst fucked them slowly. Her pace slowly built up, following their vocal cues.

"Faster!" they gasped, raising their hips. "Harder." They strained to supercede Amethyst's movements, to get what they wanted. Peridot was surprisingly voracious in this department.

"Faster! Harder!" Peridot demanded again, short clipped nails digging into Amethyst's backside.

Amethyst stopped. She was tiring but hadn't reached the point where she had to catch her breath.

"Peri, I don't have that kind of stamina..."

"What do you suggest?"

"I don't know. You could get on top?"

"Excellent idea, Amethyst!" They would have sprung up if Amethyst hadn't been pinning them to the mattress. That was a good thing, since they had nearly forgotten they were naked below the waist.

This made them realize that it would be hard to be on top and to keep the covers on them. Peridot looked around the room, searching for an idea, biting a hangnail.

Their eyes locked onto their cracked open dresser drawer. "Hold on, Amethyst. I have an idea." They wiggled impatiently under her, searching for their boxers that had drifted somewhere underneath the covers. Finding their clothes, they swiftly redressed and went to the dresser, searching through its contents. They pulled out a yellow sundress that was clearly too long for them to walk around in.

"My mom got it for me," Peridot explained, catching the surprise on Amethyst's face.

Clothes like this were not usually Peridot's first choice, but they reasoned it would be efficient and far more comfortable than being naked from the waist down. It was like a poncho or blanket, they said to themselves as they put it on. They looked good in yellow, but the rest of the dress was a mismatch to their presentation. Even Amethyst blinked, finding it strange.

It only felt awkward for a moment when Peridot crossed the room back to the bed. They reached under the dress to shed their boxers again and straddled Amethyst. Leading the silicone phallus back inside of them again, they soon forgot they were wearing a dress.

Holding onto her shoulders for support, Peridot moved, first slow and experimental and then erratic and violent. Amethyst had tried to keep up, meeting their movements, but soon gave up, laying back and watching them with a pleased grin on her face.

"You like that?"

"Y-yes!" Peridot croaked out, staggering. In spite of their legs cramping and the overwhelming pleasure they continued relentlessly.

Amethyst frowned slightly, feeling the tension in Peridot's legs. "Do you want to take a break?"

"No." There was fire in Peridot's eyes. "I want to come."

Amethyst let it go. She held Peridot by the hips. After a few more minutes of Peridot riding her hard, they finally heaved a frustrated sigh and laid flat on top of her, the dildo still inside, without the energy to move.

"I had fun." Amethyst kissed their cheek.

Peridot was quiet, catching their breath. Amethyst stroked their back, their heart pounding against her palm. Their legs were entangled and stuck together, slick with sweat. The smell of sex was pungent in the air, the room humid.

Amethyst said, "I liked how you looked on top of me, Peri."

But Peridot could only focus on one thing. "But I didn't come!" they shouted. "Why?! I was so close and more turned on than I've ever been! I should have! I should have come!" They bristled in Amethyst's arms and she held them close and tight. It was like wrestling a cat about to be dipped in a bath.

"Release me, Amethyst! Let's try again!"

"Dude, no. I'm tired."

"Just let me do all the work again. I know I'll be able to climax this time." One eye was on one of the vibrators sprawled just out of reach.

"Peri. Chill."

"I will not 'chill!'"

From below came a sharp thumping noise: Lapis banging at the ceiling with a broom from downstairs, telling them they were both too loud.

Distracted, Amethyst loosed her grip, looking in the direction of the noise. Peridot leapt out of her arms, taking advantage of this, quickly snatching two vibrators before Amethyst pinned them down again.

"You don't need to come."

"Yes. I. Do!"

Again, Lapis impatiently rapped at the space between them. This time neither heard her, playing a tug of war with the hitachi wand.

"You'll hurt yourself!"

"I won't!"

"Uh. Yeah, you will. Gimme that."

"Fine!" Peridot let go and Amethyst fell back against the bed. Peridot ran on all fours, gathering the sex toys.

Amethyst bounded back on her feet and chased after them while Lapis continued to beat at the ceiling.

"Why won't you let me come?!" Peridot cried out petulantly as Amethyst grappled them to the floor again. One by one she confiscated all the sex toys and threw them in the closet.

"It's not that I won't let you come," Amethyst said, demeanor softening. "It's that I don't want you to feel obligated to." Amethyst sighed and wrapped an arm around Peridot, pulling them in close. "I know you want to impress me."

Peridot nodded.

"But you don't have to try so hard."

"But if I don't try, won't that mean I don't care?"

Amethyst shook her head and poked their nose, "no, silly. You can still try, just within your own comfort zone. Like when you told me you like to keep your clothes on during? Stuff like that."

"So you're not… I don't know. I wanted you to feel successful. Like you were doing a good job."

"And? Did I?"

Peridot met her gaze, unsure if they should answer that, if what they said would be the correct response. "Yes! Even though I didn't reach climax- I had fun."

"Good. Me too."

Peridot could feel in Amethyst's gaze and her fingers interlocking with theirs that she meant it. They relaxed and slowly lay their head down in her lap. They were still wearing the yellow dress and they hadn't climaxed, but they were comfortable and Amethyst was here. They didn't mind the minor incongruities.

They might have fallen asleep in her lap like that, bathing in the afterglow like a cat under a sunbeam, but a clipped knock came to the door, and on impulse alone, Peridot sprang from Amethyst's lap and answered it.

It was Lapis. She was holding a broom in one hand and looking past Peridot, over their shoulder, to Amethyst, who was still naked except for the leather harness.

"Hey. It's Lapis, nice to meet you. Are you two going to be this loud the whole time?"
