Tegan POV

I gently put my lips to Aura's, not wanting to scare her off. She didn't stop me. She didn't do anything, so I moved my lips against hers, hoping to encourage her. Finally, Aura started to kiss me back. I took this as a good sign, so I moved my right hand up her back slowly, resting it on the back of her neck. Suddenly, she takes both of my wrists in her hands, removing them from her, and pulls away.

"Tegan, I-" she began.

"Oh shit! You're straight, aren't you? I'm so sorry! I-" my thoughts becoming words for the first time that night.

"No!" She interrupted me. "No, I'm very much so not at all straight. You just took my by surprise," she explained. "I mean, I can't even believe we're hanging out and watched a movie, but you…kissed…me," Aura's tone became unsure as she uttered the last words of her sentence.

"Yeah, I did," I said, hoping to calm her. "And if you don't mind, I would like to kiss you again." Please don't say no. Please, please, please, my thoughts couldn't think of any other word.

"I…I wouldn't mind at all, actually," Aura stuttered, blushing. What? Yes! I was beyond relieved. Aura let go of my wrists and looked back up at me. Our eyes met for a moment, before she lowered hers slightly. I looked at her lips, too, and we both moved in for a second time.

The second kiss was more balanced than the first, as we both were participating from the start. I put my hand back on her neck, and Aura moved hers to my cheek. She lightly sucked on my bottom lip, which made my breathing ragged. Our lips moved quicker as the passion increased. Oh god, I want to feel… I thought, as I cautiously licked her upper lip, requesting entrance. Aura moved her hand from my cheek to the back of my head and pulled me in. She gasped as our tongues met. All I wanted to do was to make her do that again. I lowered my left hand down her back and fiddled with the bottom of her shirt. She moved her left hand to my thigh and tugged my hair that she had entangled in her hand. I took this as the go-ahead, and I gently brushed my fingers on the bare flesh of her lower back. Aura moaned instantly, which I gratefully took into my mouth. I sucked harder on her tongue, as she pulled at my hair again. She's already found one of my weaknesses, I thought, as I moaned. She bit my bottom lip, dragging her teeth along the flesh until my lip jerked back into place. I gripped her back tighter with my fingers, and Aura moaned again. I covered her moan with my mouth, kissing her with more passion than before. Here goes nothing. I moved my hand to her shoulder and gently laid her down on her back, so that our legs were next to each other, but we were aligned from our stomachs to our lips. Aura gently squeezed and nudged my shoulder. I lifted myself up enough to break the kiss and meet Aura's eyes.

"Tegan, I-" she started, without yet opening her eyes.

"Please don't tell me that I kissed you," I half-joked, grinning at her. I was still a bit worried that this was too much for her.

"No, silly. I just…we just met. I don't usually…" Aura began.

"Go to random hotel rooms with strangers and make out?" I finished for her.

"I- Yeah. I don't really do the one night stand thing. I'm sorry," Aura said.

"Hey, who said this was a one night stand?" I asked. I've been giving off the wrong signals. Fuck! She must think I'm some sort of player, I worried myself.

"What do you mean?" Aura questioned me, looking more confused than ever. I pulled us up to our original sitting positions, in an attempt to ease her nerves.

"The way I look at right now, is that I met a beautiful woman with a kind heart and a great taste in movies, that happens to not mind if I kiss her. I know I wasn't planning on forgetting about you once you walked out that door, or anytime soon, for that matter," I stated, not breaking our eye contact. I hoped she understood my sincerity.

"So…y- you want…to see m- me…again?" Aura stammered in response.

I laughed, "Of course I do, silly. I don't exactly invite just any random person off the street into my hotel room."

"Oh! I didn't mean to imply-" Aura started with wide eyes, but I stopped her before she could continue down that path.

"No, I didn't think you did. It's okay. I know what you mean," I tried to sooth her.

"So, we're good?" she questioned.

"Yeah. We're good," I chuckled. "But I still don't really want the night to end yet."

"Well, I'm actually off of work until Tuesday, so I can hang out as long as you'd like," Aura informed me. Tuesday? Awesome!

"For as long as I'd like, I think we'd need more than just Tuesday, but we can start with that," I flirted and smiled, now that she seemed to be back to her normal self. I noticed her glance at my lips again.

"Well that changes things, doesn't it?" she flirted back.

Aura leaned in to begin a new kiss. She quickly tangled her hand back in my hair and pulled me back to the bed.
