Disclaimer: Kaleido Star I own not, though I watch, till my brain does rot.
A/N: Layla causes feelings in my womanliness… not that you needed to know that. (or wanted to for that matter.) I don't want to spoil it for myself, so not researching Leon. (bows apoligetically) I could've had these chapters up days ago, but the login wouldn't work. I really really apreciate your reveiws, I don't need them for insperation, but it makes me feel better. Enjoy.
Sora awoke from an uneasy sleep the next morning. She looked over to find Layla gone. She got up and went to the bathroom door. She started to knock, but decided against it. She put her ear to the door. Layla was crying. She flung open the door.
"Layla-san, what's wrong?" asked Sora. She'd started to hug her but had stopped noticing Layla wasn't clothed. She blushed then decided Layla needed her and hugged her anyway.
"Sora, I'm so embarrassed," said Layla.
"Why?"
"I'm naked and—" she stopped mid-sentence realizing Sora hadn't noticed the wet vibrator hanging partially outside of her.
"It's okay whatever it is. Now what's wrong?"
"I shouldn't have burdened you," said Layla.
"You haven't burdened me, now tell me what's really wrong," said Sora.
"It's nothing you can fix," murmured Layla.
"Try me," said Sora.
"I love someone who'll never love me back," said Layla wiping at her tears.
"Now you're being unfair. Don't tell me who I can and cannot love," said Sora.
Layla looked up her eyes wide.
"I've thought about it, and if you were a man I'd already have been in love with you, as it is, you just had to help it along a little," said Sora. She leaned down and kissed Layla softly on the cheek, feeling great, yet somehow awful. She wasn't comfortable with being considered a lesbian quite yet. "As long as we take it slow."
"Sora," said Layla crying in happiness now. She hugged Sora tightly.
"You're not alone anymore. So, I'll take this. Get dressed," said Sora sliding the vibrator out. Layla shivered in delight. Amazingly she didn't feel empty inside like she normally did. Sora washed the vibrator off allowing Layla time to get dressed.
Sora smiled and hugged Layla tightly, enjoying the feeling of her warmth before feeling guilty and stopping the hug.
"It's okay Sora. No one will find out, and it's perfectly all right," assured Layla. She planted her lips softly on Sora's and licked playfully before sucking gently on Sora's lips. She pressed her breasts against Sora's letting Sora feel the warmth and the softness Layla possessed. Layla slowly broke the kiss.
"Um, thank you," said Sora unsure of what to say. Layla laughed and hugged her.
"Now go perform a dandy show, and remember, Leon's gay," said Layla.
"Oh, but so am I," said Sora.
"There's a difference," said Layla.
"Oh?" asked Sora.
"First, no one knows, second, lesbians are hot, and third, you can be bi and the guys still won't care," said Layla.
"But I'm a lesbian, I love you," said Sora.
"You loved a guy at some point, even if you didn't if anyone finds out then you did, so you're bi. I love you too. But most girls don't like bi men so he can't do anything. Also if someone does find out, all the men will like us, and some girls will like us even more. Good luck Sora, my dream," said Layla smiling.
"Thank you Layla. I'll see you after the show," said Sora.
"Bye," said Layla.
Sora hurried back to Kaleido Stage where breakfast was being held and people were getting prepared for the show.
"Leon-san, I need to speak with you," said Sora.
"I'm busy," said Leon.
"Oh? I don't think you are. I have something very important to discuss with you," said Sora.
"It can wait," said Leon.
"Oh? You never know, I might let something slip between now and then. After all today is a beautiful gay day," said Sora meaningfully.
Leon looked up shocked. "All right."
When they got to the dressing room her slammed the door and smashed Sora against the wall. "How did you know?
She kept her eyes level with him. "I have my ways, now Leon, I don't want to use this against you, but I will."
"What do you want? Money?" asked Leon.
"No, I want you to perform to the best of your ability no matter what you think of me."
"I hate you, Sora Naegino. But I suppose you're right. I'll have to do what you want me to," said Leon grudgingly.
"Thank you Leon. I appreciate it, and I'm sure the audiences will too," said Sora.
This time Sora performed in her usual somewhat reckless manner. The audience and Sora thoroughly enjoyed it.
"Good," said Kalos after the show ended.
"Thank you," said Sora smiling.
"Sora, how'd you do that?" asked Anna.
"Layla helped me," said Sora smiling.
"I'm so happy, it looks like Kaleido Stage will do well after all," said Mia.
"And we get to see Leon on stage!" said Marion happily.
Sora almost laughed realizing how silly Mia and Marion's infatuation with Leon was.
"Good job Sora," said Layla smiling.
"You want to work on your shoulder now?" asked Sora.
Layla nodded, her eyes glittering slightly. They went to Sora's room.
"Fool! Come out where ever you are and I'll flash you," called Sora.
Fool popped out of the drawer. "Really?" he asked suspiciously.
"There you are," said Sora. She blindfolded him and tied him up. Then she turned to Layla.
"I'm not wearing the bandages today so you don't have to worry about it," said Layla.
"Oh," said Sora slightly disappointed.
"Don't worry. When we're done you can look all you want," said Layla.
"Untie me! Untie me!" exclaimed Fool. "I want to see lesbians at work."
"Fool, shut up," said Sora angrily.
"You don't deny it," said Fool grinning.
Sora ignored him and handed Layla the weight. She watched the muscles in Layla's shoulder making sure they didn't twist or become overworked. "Wow, thirty, you're about normal Layla."
"Normal for someone not advanced. I used to be able to do one hundred," said Layla quietly.
"Wow… I doubt you'll ever be able to do that again. I can't," said Sora stretching Layla's muscles and massaging.
"I really liked it the time you accidentally grabbed my breast," said Layla quietly.
"Oh really?" asked Sora. She grabbed it playfully, and then massaged it slowly.
Layla sighed contentedly. Sora slipped Layla's shirt off and removed her see through lacey block bra. Sora gently gave Layla's rosy nipples a squeeze. She licked them softly. Layla was panting.
"Layla, I'm sorry I probably won't be able to fulfill you, but if there's anything you want, guide me to it," said Sora sincerely.
With that Layla tugged off her skirt.
