#21-Dani and Santana

(Ok so not entirely happy with this one but it was more therapy for me to write it out because maybe, just maybe this one takes from personal life a little bit…just not the end unfortunately haha :| )

On this drizzly Thursday afternoon Santana went to visit her friend Dani. They'd become friends in high school, Dani coming in as freshmen when Santana was a sophmore. They'd formed a close personal friendship but Santana always found it had a slight push/pull dynamic to it. Sometimes Dani would react oddly to Santana's physical affection or back off when it seemed they were getting closer emotionally. Santana never quite understood it until the day Dani sat her down and opened up to Santana about her being gay. Santana hadn't minded, she didn't consider herself gay but she wasn't opposed to the thought of her friend with another girl. And all the little things made sense now; Dani had just been scared of Santana's reaction.

The girls were up in Dani's room and Santana was taking a look around. It had been a while since she'd been here. She was inspecting a map Dani had nailed on the back of her door when she felt the girl's presence behind her. Dani's breath on the back of Santana's neck sent tingles up her spine. When Santana turned around she was sandwiched between the door behind her and Dani's arm leaning up against the wall, blocking her in.

"Here," Dani said handing her a pencil. "It's your turn to mark the places you've been."

"Oh…ok," Santana stuttered, turning back around. She could still feel Dani close behind her and part of her wanted Dani to make a move on her; just pin her passionately to the wall and kiss her senseless. She wanted to know what Dani's lips tasted like just once. Instead she just marked the few places she'd travelled and that was it. She'd look back and realise that Dani was trying her best to be respectful and leave the ball in her court.

Later the girls found themselves downstairs in the kitchen for a snack. Dani had pulled a tub of ice cream from the freezer and just one spoon from the drawer. She hoisted herself up onto the counter with her legs hanging over as she opened up the tub. Santana stood in front of her, watching Dani curiously. Dani loaded up her spoon with the mint chocolate ice cream and offered it to Santana. Santana simply shook her head no, so she was forced to watch as Dani seductively placed it into her mouth, sucking it clean. Dani went about conversation as if she were unaware to the effect she was having on her supposedly straight friend.

"So the next tattoo I want…" she said slowly inching up her shorts to reveal her upper thighs, "is a feather that shifts into a flock of birds….right here" she said tracing her upper thigh with her fingernail, tracing the outline of it. Santana could only gulp in response. Dani's skin was so perfectly smooth and tanned and all she wanted was to reach out and touch. She almost did caress the girl's skin too if it wasn't for the unwelcome interruption. Dani's grandmother, who lived in the other part of the house, came through the door that joined the two living areas. She eyed the girl's sceptically and Santana couldn't help but suppress a giggle. The older lady just asked if everything was okay, obviously trying to decipher if there was something going on there, knowing her granddaughter's preference for girls. Dani simply assured her nothing was going on but the moment she retreated the girls couldn't help but buckle in half with uncontrollable laughter.

To avoid another interruption, not that there was much to interrupt to Santana's dismay, the girls withdrew back to Dani's room. They'd been friends for so long they didn't feel the need to every entertain one another with activities. Instead Dani was just going through tidying up some things in her room while Santana sat cross legged on the ground, flipping through Dani's old art books from school.

"D these are so good! I almost forgot what a downright talented freak you are," Santana said not looking up from the books. Dani smiled down at her, Santana had always been her biggest encourager and nothing had changed since high school.

"Thanks San. Take whichever sketches you want, I'll probably throw most of them anyway, I'm getting over them."

Santana held the book tightly to her chest. "You wouldn't dare." Dani just cocked her eyebrow at her. "I won't let you. I'm taking all of them, then one day I can say I knew you when…"

"You're such a loser," Dani joked as she joined Santana on the floor.

"Look who's talking…" was Santana's only comeback as Dani began to draw shapes in Santana's palm with her fingers. It was a simple touch but it was enough to comfort Santana and send butterflies to her stomach. It was always only Dani who could make her feel so much so quick.

The girls were both lying on the floor, Dani's hand still caressing Santana's. They didn't chat which gave Santana way too much time inside her own head. She wondered what it would like to be with a girl, to be with Dani more specifically. They'd always had a connection; it just took her longer to find out exactly how deep that connection went. It could be the best thing that ever happened to her or it could be the worst mistake and completely screw up their friendship. But it seemed Santana didn't have to worry, because as much as she was willing the other girl to, Dani never made a move to take things further. What happened to Santana Lopez the HBIC? Santana thought to herself. If she wanted something she was never hesitant in the past to just take it, so what stopped her now. Well, besides utter humiliation and rejection. She pushed those thoughts aside though as she rolled her body over and onto Dani's. Dani fluttered her eyes open at the feeling and found herself looking into Santana's chocolate brown orbs, they were enticing that was for sure. Dani studied Santana's face, certain she knew what Santana was getting at but trying to ascertain if she was truly ready for what she was asking. If Dani were to start she was sure she wouldn't be able to stop herself, not if she had the Latina goddess at her mercy. Santana continued to move things along though, initiating their first kiss. It was slow, both girls taking the time to adjust to the development and the intoxicating heat they found inside each other's mouths. When Dani was sure Santana was in this as much as she was she draped her fingers down her back and found rest on Santana's ass. She kneaded at her and urged the girl closer to her body and further into her kiss.

"Dani…" Santana said pulling back for air and looking into the girl's eyes. "I don't exactly know how to please you….but oh god do I want to…"

Dani smiled at the girl. She didn't know how Santana could get so insecure around her, but she found it very endearing. Dani halted all sexual touch to emphasise her next point. "Santana, you don't need to do anything you're not ready for you hear me? I am not going to push you for anything. How about I go about showing you some things and then you can decide if you're ready? And San…tell me if at any stage you need me to stop."

"Oh I don't think that's going to be an issue D, but if you need me to promise then I will."

Santana felt a new side of pleasure as Dani went about removing her clothes and kissing every inch of skin that was revealed as a result. Santana had never known herself to be so vocal during sex but she couldn't help the moans and gasps that escaped as Dani's touch sent shockwaves through her. Dani took her time mapping the girl's body, discovering the sweet spots, and indulging in the beauty of Santana's naked form. Dani wanted to be sure Santana was truly 'ready' for what came next but she was pleasantly surprised when she dragged her fingers through Santana's folds.

"You…you're so wet," Dani husked out, surprised by the shaky voice that came out.

Dani waited for a reply but surmised that Santana didn't trust her voice when her body was under the control of someone else like this. Santana just coaxed Dani along with the way her body was writhing at her touch. Dani eased into Santana with just one finger and was rewarded with Santana's nails digging into her back in a state of heightened pleasure. Dani was certain in that moment she would never enjoy making love to someone as much as she would to Santana, her long time friend and confidant. Somehow having the older girl as the inexperienced one, with Dani in charge, really turned Dani on. She wanted to show Santana a vast array of new things today. Santana was tight around Dani's finger though so she kept it to just one finger thrusting in and out of San. The way she curled her finger inside her though was doing unimaginable things to Santana. Santana's breath hitched in her throat with every pump and her chest heaved dramatically as she tried to control her breathing. Dani was making that an impossible task though as she swiped at her engorged clit, finding just the right pressure to make Santana squirm most. Sensing Santana wouldn't be able to hold on much longer, and taking indeed a lot of satisfaction from that fact, she kissed Santana senseless as she brought her to climax. Dani wanted this to be more than a quick release or experiment for Santana; she wanted her to feel loved and safe. If this would be Santana's only time with a girl, or their only time together Dani wanted to treat it right, Santana deserved that much. Dani held her as Santana found her way back to consciousness.

"Mmm, so that's what I've been missing out on," Santana whispered into Dani's ear. Both girls were far past contentment, instead finding rest in a state of bliss. "And now it's the student's turn I believe."

Dani didn't have a chance to placate Santana; the girl was on a mission to pay Dani back. Dani let go of all thoughts, knowing that even if Santana's nerves got the better of her and it wasn't technically good, it would still be perfect.
