CHAPTER 26

Sometime during the night, Rachel and Quinn had shifted positions so that when the blonde woke up, it was to the comforting weight of the brunette's head resting upon her chest. Quinn smiled as she reached up and ran her fingers through dark tresses, combing through the curls that the moist sea air the night before had created. She felt lighter than she had in ages. Her fears that Rachel would leave her when things were all said and done were still present, of course, but they weren't nearly as strong. She felt like she could breathe. Like there was a light at the end of the tunnel. While she hadn't intended to tell Rachel about it the night before, she couldn't deny that having done so was a good thing. Yes, a part of her was still afraid that filming would end and that Rachel would go back to New York, but the brunette's words from the night before resonated beside those dark thoughts, showering them with the flickering light of hope that they would find a way to be together in the end.

She just had to believe.

That was still a problem, of course, she was too used to being left behind, kicked aside, or abandoned, but she wanted to believe Rachel when the brunette promised to find a solution. More than with anyone else in her life, she wanted to believe Rachel wouldn't hurt her.

She wanted to believe.

She was pulled from her thoughts by a deft tongue flicking across her nipple, and she grinned as she murmured, her voice thick and rough with sleep, "Good morning, my beautiful singing princess."

Rachel smiled against Quinn's breast as she delivered another light lick to the tempting rosy nipple in front of her mouth. "Good morning. How are you feeling?" she asked softly, still mildly concerned about the blonde after the previous night's confessions.

"I'm good. So, you know," Quinn murmured, smirking as she scratched Rachel's scalp, "feel free to continue what you were doing."

Rachel laughed and kissed Quinn's breast softly. "You liked this?"

"Not at all," Quinn drawled, her breath hitching audibly in her throat when Rachel's mouth surrounded her. She groaned as the brunette's tongue circled her nipple, flicking lightly over the bud. "You are so good at that," she murmured.

Rachel grinned and sucked the nub between her lips; her right hand sliding up Quinn's stomach to palm the blonde's other breast, squeezing the mound under her hand as she sucked hungrily against the other. She hummed approvingly as Quinn's chest arched up into her and she licked her lips as she pulled back to examine her handiwork. Peaked nipples seemed to stare back at her, begging for attention, and she whimpered as she leaned back in for more.

"God, I love your boobs," she murmured as she kissed her way around the blonde's left breast. "I could just play with them forever."

Quinn bit her lip as her eyes rolled back in her head at the brunette's raspy confession. "Rachel."

"Hmm?" Rachel asked as she painted a broad swipe of her tongue over the blonde's straining nipple, watching the way it bounced back into place before she sucked it deep inside her mouth.

Quinn let out a long, loud moan, her fingers tightening in Rachel's hair as the brunette pulled back and blew a lightly over her nipple, the cool air over the hardened nub sending a wave of desire coursing through her. "So good," she sighed.

Rachel smiled and switched breasts again so that she was able to rest her weight on her left arm as she ran her right hand in slow, meandering circuits down Quinn's stomach; nipping lightly on the blonde's nipple as she scratched her nails over toned muscles, swirling her tongue around the bud as she swirled her finger inside the blonde's bellybutton. Her fingers slid slowly back and forth between protruding hipbones as she licked a path up Quinn's neck to hover promisingly above the blonde's parted lips.

"You are so beautiful," she murmured as her hand dipped between Quinn's legs, her fingers diving into a veritable ocean of want. "So wet," she whispered approvingly.

Quinn groaned, her left leg rolling out wider, opening herself to the brunette's touch. "Baby."

Rachel smiled and captured Quinn's lips in a deep, lazy kiss as she ran a finger up and down through the length of the blonde, gliding through soft, swollen lips that seemed to wrap around her finger, skating through slick desire that was so warm, so wet, so fucking perfect against her skin. She would never get tired of this.

Another low groan rumbled in Quinn's chest as Rachel's finger continued to run through her, never pressing too hard, never delivering contact where it was most needed. Just up and down, again and again, slowly, almost reverently, and it was nice and made her feel loved but goddamn it she just…

"Touch me," Quinn finally growled in frustration, tearing her mouth away from Rachel's as she stared imploringly into dark mahogany eyes. "Please."

Rachel smiled and moved one finger up to Quinn's clit, again keeping her touch painfully soft as she rubbed light circles against the bud. "Like this?"

Hazel eyes flashed fire and an agile tongue swept over kiss-swollen lips as another low growl rumbled in the back of the blonde's throat. "Rachel…"

"Hmm?" Rachel hummed, pressing harder against the bundle under her fingertip.

"Yes," Quinn groaned, her eyes rolling back in her head as electricity shot through her.

Rachel smirked and resumed her earlier touch, running her finger up and down through the blonde's folds, this time ending with light circle against the blonde's clit. It was, she could tell, both satisfying and frustrating, and she was rather enjoying keeping Quinn guessing. "Better?" she asked teasingly, dipping her chin and kissing the blonde softly.

Quinn groaned and shook her head. It was better, so much better, but still not enough to get her anywhere. Rachel could keep touching her like this all day long and it'd be doubtful to push her over the edge. "More."

Rachel smiled against Quinn's lips and pushed her middle finger inside the blonde, whimpering softly at the way strong muscles gripped at her and pulled her in deeper. "Like this?" she asked, pumping in and out in the same tortuously slow tempo.

Quinn bit her lip and nodded, because dear lord it did feel good, but she quickly followed it up with another shake of her head.

"What do you need, sweetie?" Rachel whispered. The question was playful, it was quite an experience to watch Quinn writhe beneath her, but it was also serious. All of this was still so new, that she wasn't quite sure what she should do next.

"More," Quinn groaned unhelpfully, rolling her hips up into Rachel's hand, trying to pull the brunette deeper. She moaned loudly when she felt a second finger push inside her. But, again, the strokes were slow.

Rachel watched Quinn with rapt fascination as the blonde's expression shifted from pleasure to thoughtful. "What?" she asked, stalling her thrust when she was buried inside the blonde.

Quinn smiled and kissed the brunette hotly. "Rachel…" she murmured, her smile growing wider as the brunette's brow furrowed in confusion.

"What?"

"Fuck me," Quinn husked, reaching down with her left hand to cover Rachel's and push it harder against her.

Rachel bit her lip and groaned as every muscle in her body clenched. That was, without a doubt, the sexiest thing she had ever heard in her life. "Jesus, Quinn."

Quinn smiled and lifted her head enough to kiss the brunette softly. "Please. Make me yours," she murmured, pulling her hand away from Rachel's and reaching up to grab hold of the pillow beneath her head.

Rachel licked her lips as she looked down into lust darkened hazel eyes and nodded as she resumed thrusting into the blonde, this time moving faster and harder than before, her speed and force picking up with each thrust until the heel of her hand was slapping loudly against Quinn's clit and the room was filled with the sounds of the blonde's screams. She groaned softly and moved so that she was able to add her hips to her thrusts, forcing herself harder and faster, the inside of her own thighs growing measurably slicker as strong muscles began fluttering around her fingers. Rachel's name was torn from Quinn's throat as the blonde came undone, shaking and trembling under the petite brunette who continued to thrust against her, the brunette's movement slowing and gentling as Quinn's orgasm eased.

Quinn groaned when Rachel pulled out, and smiled lazily up at the brunette who was wearing a Cheshire Cat grin. "I love you."

"Mmm." Rachel licked her lips and nodded. "I love you," she whispered, momentarily forgetting the throbbing between her own legs as she was swept up into a deep, lingering kiss, Quinn's tongue plunging hotly inside her mouth.

A slow, seductive smile tweaked Quinn's lips as she stroked her tongue against Rachel's. Her body was still humming with the lingering aftereffects of her orgasm, but she knew Rachel had to be close. The brunette had been moaning almost as much as she had been there at the end.

Rachel pulled back and smiled questioningly at Quinn when she felt two insistent hands at her hips, trying to pull her over onto the blonde.

"Trust me," Quinn murmured, tugging again at Rachel's hips. She just… needed… the brunette… on top… of her. There. "Perfect," she murmured as Rachel settled atop her, exquisitely long legs on either side of her hips. She pulled the brunette down into another wet, sloppy kiss as she eased her right hand between their bodies so that she was able to run two fingers through wet, swollen lips.

"Quinn," Rachel whimpered when the blonde's fingers ghosted over her clit, her hips automatically bucking down into the touch. Her body had cooled down a little, but that one touch pushed her right back toward the edge and she needed more.

"Mmm?" Quinn hummed as she circled Rachel's clit one last time before dipping lower and hooking her ring and middle fingers just inside the brunette.

She was answered with a deep mewl as Rachel pushed herself up and away, the brunette's hips straightening over her fingers and pulling her in deeper. Quinn licked her lips as she pushed herself fully inside, loving the way Rachel's body, so hot and wet, wrapped around her fingers and sucked her in further. She pulled out slowly, purposefully not pushing against the ridges that would make the brunette see stars, and smiled as she teased Rachel's opening with light, feinting thrusts. Her eyes raked over full, hanging breasts, with dark mocha colored nipples peaked and begging for attention, and she bit her lip as she ran her left hand down the flat of Rachel's chest, palming the brunette's right breast and squeezing it. "You are so sexy," she murmured, squeezing the mound again.

Rachel groaned, her head falling back as her chest arched forward into the blonde's hand. A thumb brushed over her nipple as she pushed her hips down on Quinn's hand, driving the blonde's fingers deep inside her, drawing a quiet whimper from her lips.

Quinn watched with rapt fascination as Rachel began moving above her, slowly at first, up and down, the brunette's free breast swinging lightly with the movement. She began massaging the breast under her palm in time with the brunette's thrusts, pressing the back of her wrist against her stomach and using her hips to help drive herself deeper, meeting each of Rachel's thrusts with one of her own.

Rachel let loose a primal moan as she began to unabashedly fuck herself on Quinn's fingers, her body finding that perfect rhythm it craved as she pushed herself up and down, rolling her hips every time Quinn was buried as deep inside of her as the blonde could get, so that her clit would rub against her lover's wrist. She was vaguely aware of Quinn's continuous murmurs, the soft I love yous and You are so fucking sexys pushing her higher and higher until with one last slow, rotating grind of her hips against Quinn's wrist she came undone, shaking and trembling as she fell on top of the blonde.

Quinn buried her face in the crook of Rachel's neck and pulled the brunette in closer as strong muscles continued to spasm around her fingers. When the last tremor eased, she wiggled her fingers inside the brunette and smiled as the motion earned her a small aftershock. "That was hot," she murmured.

Rachel blushed and groaned against the blonde's ear. Never before had she ever just let go like that. In the heat of the moment, she'd become a creature of sensation, seeking pleasure, but now… now, she was mildly embarrassed.

Quinn could tell that something was off so she carefully pulled out of the brunette, wiping her fingers off on the sheets before wrapping her arms around the smaller woman's waist as she quickly flipped them over. "What's wrong?" she murmured, smoothing Rachel's hair out of her face so she could see her better.

Rachel looked past Quinn and shook her head. "Nothing. Just a little…"

It was like a light bulb went off in Quinn's head. "You have nothing to be embarrassed about, sweetie," she murmured, dipping her head and kissing the brunette softly. "Dear god, that was the sexiest thing I have ever seen. You are the sexiest thing I've ever seen."

Rachel's eyes fluttered closed and she smiled bashfully. She didn't see herself as 'sexy' at all, and she was still a little embarrassed about her wanton behavior, but the earnestness in Quinn's voice soothed some of that discomfort away. "Thank you," she whispered.

Quinn smiled sadly, seeing that Rachel didn't quite believe her, and kissed the brunette again. "You are perfect," she murmured against Rachel's lips before moving lower, sliding down the brunette's body so she could tongue an erect nipple. "Gorgeous," she breathed against the stiff peak.

Rachel gasped and looked down into Quinn's smiling hazel eyes as the blonde slipped further down her body, hands tracing lightly down her sides.

"Let me have you?" Quinn asked, as she settled herself between Rachel's legs. Her eyes never wavered from the brunette's as she stared imploringly up into beautiful brown eyes, her hands gliding slowly up and down the outside of Rachel's thighs. "Please. You are so fucking sexy, Rachel, and I want… please let me have you," she murmured.

Rachel groaned and nodded, unable to refuse the blonde's lustful plea, and she groaned as she watched Quinn's gaze dip to her center. Strong hands pulled her legs open wider, exposing her to the blonde's hungry gaze and she whimpered when a light, delicate kiss was pressed to her clit.

"You are incredible," Quinn hummed as she extended her tongue and ran it boldly up the length of the brunette. "Exquisite. Delicious," she murmured, looking up at Rachel and winking.

Rachel blushed and looked away for a moment, before a quick tongue flicking over her clit drew her attention back to her lover.

"I loved watching you let go," Quinn murmured, brushing her lips over Rachel's inner thigh, her words falling in hot waves of the brunette's sex. "Watching you ride me," she growled, laying another broad, heavy lick through slick lower lips.

Rachel whimpered and reached down to tangle her finger's in Quinn's hair, her hips rocking up to meet the blonde's mouth. She sighed when Quinn stopped talking and began sucking lightly against her clit, the blonde's talented, oh so talented, tongue swirling intricate patterns over the captured nub and sending currents of electricity coursing through her.

"Quinn," she moaned, her fingers tightening in blonde silk.

Quinn groaned at the feeling of Rachel's blunt nails scratching her scalp and rolled her head up into the touch, the brunette's clit falling out of her mouth as she batted it mercilessly with her tongue. She worked her right hand under Rachel's leg and thrust two fingers deep inside the brunette, groaning softly as hot velvet pulled her in deeper. She laid one last swirling lick to Rachel clit before moving back up the brunette's body, her fingers thrusting slowly down below.

Rachel's hand slipped down to the back of Quinn's neck and she used that hold to pull the blonde into her, claiming the former Cheerio's lips in a deep, probing kiss, and moaning loudly at the taste of herself up on the other woman's tongue. Her hips rocked slowly, meeting each of Quinn's gentle thrusts, their tongues swirling around each other at an identical pace.

Quinn smiled as she pulled back, resting her forehead against Rachel's as she sped the pace of her thrusts by a fraction. "I love the way you feel around my fingers. So hot. So wet. So tight," she murmured. "When you come, you look like a goddess."

Rachel bit her lip and blushed. "Quinn."

"That was actually a fantasy of mine, watching you ride me," Quinn confessed softly, shortening her thrusts and moving her thumb to press firm circles against Rachel's clit. "And, baby, I gotta tell you, my imagination had nothing on how sexy you were in real life," she husked, pressing her thumb into Rachel's clit and curling her fingers hard, sending the brunette flying.

"Fuck, Quinn," Rachel gasped as her orgasm overtook her.

Quinn smiled. "Gorgeous," she murmured as she pulled out of Rachel and began rubbing the brunette's clit encouragingly. "A goddess. My goddess," Quinn breathed.

Rachel whimpered and shuddered again, another orgasm ripping through her at Quinn's words. "Shit," she hissed.

"Mmm," Quinn murmured. "Yes. So incredibly sexy," she whispered, pressing her lips to the brunette's cheek. She slowed her fingers as Rachel's trembling slowed until she was simply holding the brunette's sex in her hand, unwilling to give up that intimate touch just yet.

"Mmm, baby," Rachel moaned. Her pulse was pounding through her veins and her brain was distinctly muddled, leaving her unable to complete a more coherent thought.

Quinn smiled and nuzzled the brunette's cheek. "So sexy," she whispered playfully.

"Mmm," Rachel hummed, her body going limp as the final waves of adrenaline from their lovemaking left her.

Quinn smirked and kissed Rachel's parted lips softly. She knew Rachel wasn't necessarily agreeing with her, but she'd take it. She licked her lips as she pulled back to look at her sated lover, and her smile softened as her eyes roamed over Rachel's features, her heart filling with so much love for the brunette that she quite literally lost her breath. Rachel was everything she'd ever hoped to someday find and more, and she vowed to herself to do whatever it took to keep her. The brunette's story floated through her mind, the singing princess and the actor princess got their happily ever after and she wanted hers. No matter what it took, she wanted her happily ever after with Rachel.

She just had to believe.

And, as she smoothed her hand over Rachel's cheek and kissed the brunette's lips tenderly, drawing a soft sigh and a contented smile from her lover that caused her heart to thud heavily in her chest, she found that she truly was starting to do just that.
