Its Gonna Be Love 3/6
Lindsey Willows had been sitting on her mothers bed for the past 45 minutes. At first, she thought it would be fun to help her mom pick out an outfit for today. But after Catherine had gone through almost half of her closet, Lindsey was beginning to regret the idea.
"What about this one Linds?" Catherine asked stepping out of the closet.
"It's Sara Mom! You've seen her a million times before!" Lindsey huffed.
Catherine walked over to the full length mirror and smiled. She tucked her hair back behind her ears, and smoothed the outfit over her body.
"It's different now Lindsey, I want to look good for her. I want her to ... " Catherine started.
Catherine was interrupted by the ringing of the doorbell, which made Lindsey jump off the bed.
"THANK GOD! Saved by the bell! COMING!" Lindsey screamed leaving the room.
Catherine followed her daughter's trail down the hall. She reached the door just as Lindsey began to open it. Catherine was greeted by the squealing sounds of two eight year old girls.
"Lindsey guess what? Mom let me bring 'The Lizzie McGuire Movie'!" the little red head squealed.
"OH MY GOD, NO WAY! My Mom rented 'From Justin to Kelly'!" Lindsey added.
Both girls screamed in unison. Catherine looked at Shayla's mom, who had a huge smile on her face.
"You sure you can handle these two today Catherine?" she asked.
"It's no problem Misty, we're happy to have Shayla," Catherine replied.
"Don't worry Ms. Anderson, Mommy's girlfriend is coming too," Lindsey added as she and Shayla ran into the living room.
"Girlfriend?" Shayla's mother Misty questioned.
"Yeah," Catherine replied getting defensive.
"As in woman you kiss type girlfriend?" Misty asked again.
Catherine was prepared for the looks and the disapproval of people, she just didn't expect it to be quite so soon. Let alone with a P.T.A mom. She stood up straight and took a deep breath.
"Yes, as in the woman I love, girlfriend," she replied waiting for the backlash.
"I wish I would have know this before Catherine," Misty said looking towards the girls playing in the living room.
Catherine sighed, shaking her head looking down at her feet. This was the only thing she was afraid of. Parents not letting their children hang out with Lindsey because her mom was in a same sex relationship.
"Shit, Catherine, I would have asked you out years ago if I'd known you played for both sides," Misty smiled placing a hand on Catherine's shoulder.
Catherine let out a sigh of relief and looked back towards Misty. She then glanced into the living room and smiled.
"But then again, I never would have met Ashley if I did. Well, I have to get going. I'll be back about six to pick up Shayla. Is that okay?"
"Oh, yeah, no problem," Catherine replied.
"Alright, thanks Catherine. Bye Shayla!" she yelled into the living room.
"Bye Mom!" came the response.
Catherine closed the door and joined the girls chatting in the living room.
"Okay girls, everyone got their swimsuits, and ready to go?"
"Mom, I've been ready for 2 hours. Shayla is here and is no doubt ready. You are the problem. Can you please just pick an outfit and lets go get Sara already!"
"Watch it young lady. Let me go grab my purse okay?"
"Bout time!" Lindsey smiled.
----Sara's Apartment----
Sara was straightening her shorts and tank top for the umpteenth time when she heard a knock at the door. She opened it and was surprised to see just Lindsey standing there.
"Lindsey, hey kiddo" she said pulling her into a hug.
"Hey Sara, you ready?" she said quickly.
"Where's your mom?"
"Oh, she's in the car. I made her stay there."
"Why?"
"Cause, Shayla and I want to go swimming at some point today. Now, you know if I let her come up here and get you, we would never go anywhere!"
Sara just looked at Lindsey still confused.
"You just kissed mom for the first time last night. If I were to let her up here, you guys would be kissing forever and we'd never get anywhere," she said pulling Sara out her door.
"What makes you think I'm not going to kiss your mom once I get to the car?" Sara asked locking her door.
"Kiss her all you want Sara. The big difference is your apartment doesn't move, the car does!" she smiled walking down the steps holding Sara's hand.
The car ride to the Palms was filled with laughter from the girls in the back ,and love from the women in the front. Sara did just as she had promised, she kissed Catherine. Every red light, every stop sign, pretty much every time the car even slightly paused Sara lips were on Catherine's.
Catherine's eye's stayed constantly focused on the road, while Sara's head leaned back against the head rest, just gazing at Catherine. Every now and again Catherine would catch her looking and blush slightly.
The valet parked their car, as the foursome made their way into the hotel. Catherine wasted no time taking Sara's hand as they walked through the lobby to the pool. To their surprise, when they arrived at the pool it wasn't even that crowded.
Sara surprised all of them when she said she had called ahead and reserved a cabaña for the afternoon. The girls squealed and ran to the cabaña that Sara pointed to. Sara attempted to follow the girls but Catherine held her back.
She ran her hands up Sara's arms and locked them behind Sara's neck. She pulled Sara down to her and kissed her, their first passionate kiss since the previous night. Sara wrapped her arms around Catherine's waist as they pulled apart.
"What was that for?" Sara asked slightly self conscious.
"Do I need a reason to kiss my girlfriend?" she smiled.
"Never. Its just ... " Sara started
"Mom, can we go in now!" Lindsey yelled.
"Yeah sweetie, go ahead," Catherine said as she walked with Sara over to the cabaña.
As Sara and Catherine set their things down, a waiter came by to ask if there was anything they wanted. Sara talked to him for a few minutes, ordering Lindsey and Shayla some soda and a few snacks. She ordered a beer for herself but wasn't sure of what Catherine wanted.
"Hey Catherine, do you want anything?" she asked
Catherine came up behind Sara, wrapping her arms around Sara's waist and kissing her neck.
"You," was Catherine's reply
"I meant to drink," Sara said stiffening slightly.
"Whatever she's having is fine," Catherine told the waiter.
Once the waiter left, Catherine immediately turned Sara in her arms, forcing the brunette to face her.
"Sara what's wrong?" Catherine asked.
"Nothing, I'm just not used to the whole P.D.A thing, that's all," she said hugging her.
"Well, you better get used to it honey, cause I'm gonna let the whole world know that you're mine," she replied kissing her softly.
"Ms. Willows! Sara! You guys coming in?" Shayla asked from the pool.
Catherine and Sara quickly shed their clothes and laughed when they looked at each other and their choice in swimwear. Both had on the same matching black bikini.
"Perfect match," Sara giggled
"Yes we are," Catherine smiled taking Sara's hand both jumping in the pool.
The next few hours flew by. They played Marco Polo, Sara was the champ of that game. Catherine had Lindsey on her shoulders, while Sara had Shayla on hers and the two girls wrestled in out until Shayla fell into the water. After some snacking, Catherine and Sara had successfully thrown Lindsey in the pool.
But payback came when Catherine kissed Sara by the edge of the pool. They were to involved in their own world to notice Lindsey and Shayla sneaking up behind them. Before they knew what was happening, Sara and Catherine fell into the pool screaming.
By the time they all arrived back at Catherine's house everyone was pretty drained from their day in the sun.
"Linds, why don't you and Shayla go to your room and change and then we can all watch the movie?"
"Kay Mom," Lindsey said running with Shayla to her room.
"Sara if you wanna cha ... " Catherine started to say but was cut off my Sara's lips crashing to hers.
Catherine stumbled back slightly before hitting the counter. She felt her knees go weak when Sara's tongue entered her mouth. Catherine wrapped her arms around Sara's neck pulling Sara deeper into her. When the need for air became an issue, Sara pulled away.
"Damn Sara! What was that for?"
"Do I need a reason to kiss my girlfriend?" she smiled at the sense of déjà vu.
"Reason to kiss me, no, but Sara, that wasn't a kiss. You literally made my knees weak. I always thought that was just an expression."
"Just looking at you makes my knees go weak, Catherine." she replied
This time Catherine kissed Sara sweetly, they pulled apart when they heard music from Lindsey's room blaring through the house.
"LINDSEY TURN THAT DOWN!" Catherine yelled
The music still stayed at the same volume.
"Tell you what, you go and change, there's a bathroom around the corner. I'll go and kill my daughter, change, and then I'll meet you in the living room for the movie." Catherine said kissing her cheek.
"It's not from Justin to Kelly is it?" Sara asked slightly fearful.
"Oh ... no ... Shayla brought one." Catherine said trying not to laugh.
"Catherine?"
"Hmmm?"
"What movie is it?"
"Oh, its not that bad, just ... um 'The Lizzie McGuire Movie'" she laughed
"You owe me," Sara sighed
Catherine leaned into Sara and she licked the bottom of her earlobe.
"That's okay I love paying back debts," she purred.
