When they entered the hotel room, Lena moved to the far side of the room and sat down on the bed, facing the window. The view of the sea was beautiful, but they both knew she wasn't looking at that. She was staring into the void of her own insecurities.
Sensing this, Kara crawled onto the bed and knelt behind her partner, placing her hands on the girl's sides.
"Lena," the blonde whispered. "Listen to me. You are my whole world. The light at the end of my tunnel. The thing that keeps me going. You're…"
Swallowing hard, Lena tried to urge Kara to speak, but no sound came out. Instead, she simply waited silently for the younger girl's next words and continued to stare blankly out the window.
"You're everything to me, Lena," Kara sighed. "I can't imagine my life without you."
Lena pulled away, suddenly feeling as though the words were not genuine and that she was being patronized. The last thing in the world that she wanted was another 'yes-man.' Lena just wanted honesty, even if was painful. Even if it meant that Kara's feelings for her weren't as serious as her own towards Kara.
But she still couldn't bring herself to say anything, so after jerking herself away from Kara's touch, she remained quiet.
"Lena, please," Kara urged her. "Don't push me away. I know you don't believe me right now, but please… just try to listen to my words. Try to trust me."
"I can't," Lena said firmly, still refusing to turn and look at her partner.
"Why?"
"Because you're just like everyone else. You're just telling me what I want to hear."
"What makes you think that?"
"Your reaction to what I said at the promenade."
With a heavy sigh, Kara argued, "I told you. I was just shocked and nervous. You know I would never lie to you, Lena. I'm not that kind of person."
Biting her lip as she reflected on the girl's words and listened to the tone of sincerity in her voice, Lena challenged herself to take a leap of faith and trust her partner. Kara was right, anyway. She wasn't the type to lie. And why would she? It wasn't like Kara was taking advantage of her. In fact, she'd refused every single one of Lena's attempts to help her and her family financially, despite how much they needed the assistance.
Part of her felt she couldn't trust anyone. But the other part - a quiet, hopeful whisper - prayed that Kara was different. And she had all the evidence in the world to support that this was true. Kara had been nothing but kind and genuine with her. Why would she say something just to pacify her now?
"Lena…" Kara whispered, gently tugging the girl from her thoughts. "I want to say something, but I need you to really hear me. And… I'm hoping you won't judge…"
Finally, Lena turned her head to look over her shoulder at her girlfriend as the blonde wiggled over to where Lena was sitting and sat beside her.
"Okay…" the brunette agreed, when several moments had passed without Kara speaking.
Kara drew in a slow, deep breath to steel her resolve before speaking. Her shaking hands betrayed her fear, but thankfully, Lena didn't notice.
Eventually, the blonde confessed, "I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
Lena's mouth fell open. This was an even bigger piece of honesty and vulnerability than Lena had shared, and Lena was just as shocked as Kara had been on the promenade to hear those words.
"Kara…" she breathed. "Do you mean that?"
Blushing, the younger girl nodded her head slowly and dropped her gaze.
"Hey," Lena said firmly, lifting Kara's chin. "Don't be embarrassed. I want that too."
"You do?"
When Kara looked up at Lena, her expression was one of anxiety and fear. But when Lena's hand stroked her cheek, she felt a strange, unexpected sense of calmness fall over her.
"I do."
At her own words, Lena blushed as well, not having intended to make a wedding reference but knowing that she'd made one.
To her surprise, Kara grinned at this and kissed her lips, saying, "I love you, Lee."
"Love you too, Kar."
Gazes locked briefly, Kara surged forward, cupped Lena's face in her hands, and kissed her passionately, working her way up to sliding her tongue over her partner's bottom lip. Feeling her heart race, Lena found herself unable to pull away as her hands fell to Kara's hips.
"Kara," she whimpered, when the girl's hands ghosted over her breasts. "Don't."
"Please," the blonde husked in Lena's ear. "Please, let me make you feel good."
Letting out a low groan, Lena tilted her head slightly, subconsciously inviting her partner to kiss her neck. Kara took the opportunity to so, sucking on the girl's pulse point. When Lena whimpered at this, Kara felt a burst of arousal drip onto her panties and was suddenly very grateful that she was wearing underwear.
But before Kara could intensify her movements, Lena pushed weakly on her shoulders.
"Stop."
Sighing heavily, Kara pulled away and dropped her hands to her sides.
"I don't know how."
"You just… stop. That's how."
"Lena—"
"No. I'm not going to take that from you. We should—"
"We should make love, right here, right now," Kara cooed, stroking Lena's cheeks with her thumbs. "Please. Just let me make you cum."
Again, Lena groaned, tilting her head back and squeezing her eyes shut as she half-heartedly protested, "Kara, don't."
"Lena, I would never push you into anything you didn't want to do," the blonde assured her, "but I think you do want this. I think you're holding back and trying to make this decision for me. I can make my own choices, Lee. Trust me to make this one."
Slowly, Lena opened her eyes and looked at her partner.
When Kara saw tears in her eyes, she asked tenderly, "Baby, what's wrong? What did I do?"
"I want you so fucking bad," the star whimpered. "I need you."
"I was hoping you'd say that."
Kara grinned, gently pushing Lena back onto the bed, making the celebrity's heart beat hard like a deep, bellowing drum.
"Kara," she whimpered, when the girl's lips were suddenly on her neck again. Then, after a moment of ecstasy, she gasped, "Don't leave marks!"
"Oops…"
"Fuck, Kara! What the Hell? I have to film on Tuesday, and—"
"Good thing you're great with makeup," Kara laughed, kissing the girl's lips. "Now, hush. Just… let yourself enjoy this."
A hiccupping gasp escaped Lena's lips when Kara slid her hands under her shirt and slowly slid it up over her chest. After a brief moment of shock, Lena sat up just enough for her partner to remove the article of clothing. Shortly after - everything was a blur - Lena realized that her bra and jeans were off, tossed to the floor beside the bed.
When she felt Kara's hips pressed into hers, she breathed, "You too," and started t pull up on Kara's tank top.
With a nod and smile, Kara ripped her shirt over her head and shifted to wiggle herself out of her shorts.
Drawing a steadying breath, Lena said, "Panties."
As lustful and passionate as Kara had felt, her confidence waned at this. What she didn't really talk about was that this was her first time being sexually intimate with someone. She was ready - she'd really thought this through - but she was also suddenly quite nervous to reveal her body fully.
"Listen… Lena… I'm not—"
"You're beautiful," the older girl promised. "I love you. It's okay. Take your time, but… show me. I want to see every last dripping inch of you."
At this comment, Kara's cheeks burned hot.
"I'm not—" she protested. "I'm…"
"You're not wet?" Lena teased, sliding her fingers down over the fabric of Kara's panties, at the apex of her thighs. "Oooh… Liar, liar, panties on fire."
When Lena pressed her fingers against her, finding the sensitive location of her clit exactly, Kara let out a gasp and whimpered softly as Lena reacted to the sound by rubbing in small circles.
"D-Don't…" Kara protested, moaning softly and struggling for air. "I'm… I'll…"
"It's okay. You can cum like this, if you want. We can do it again with your panties off."
But Kara shook her head, scrambling to pull her panties down as she panted, "I need you in me."
Groaning at the desperation of her partner's words, Lena tore her own panties off and tugged Kara closer to her until the girl was straddling her hips.
"You are so fucking beautiful," she whispered, stroking Kara's bare thighs and making the girl whimper with anticipation and intense need for stimulation. "Lean back a little."
Doing as she was told, Kara shifted her weight slight and felt the sudden pressure of Lena's nimble fingers directly on her skin, with not barriers between them.
"Lena," she gasped, involuntarily rocking slightly forward against the girl's hand.
"Good girl," Lena purred. "Say my name, baby."
"Lena," fell out of Kara's mouth immediately as her partner's fingers slid backwards and soaked themselves in Kara's slick folds. "Lena. Lena, please."
"Such a good girl for me," the brunette cooed, using her free hand to hold Kara's hip and steady her shaking frame. "Come on, baby. Rock with me."
"B-But… I wanted to—"
"Shh. You can try after. I'm okay for now. I want to take care of you first, Princess."
Kara moaned loudly when Lena dipped her fingers into her core, pushing two in just enough for the blonde to feel the stretching sensation.
"That good?" Lena teased, pushing in a little deeper.
Kara nodded frantically, but Lena was far from satisfied with this non-verbal answer.
"What did you say?" she taunted, stopping her movements.
"Lena. Lena, please. Please. Please. I need more. Please."
Kara's begging was probably the biggest turn-on Lena had ever experienced, and internally, she was completely losing her shit. But outwardly, she maintained her confidence, knowing that Kara was greatly enjoying it.
"Good girl, baby. My best girl. Such a pretty girl when I fuck you. You want more?"
"Please. Please. More, baby. Please."
Panting louder and louder each time Lena inched deeper or brushed her thumb over Kara's clit, the blonde shook violently as her impending climax built, the tightening in her core setting every nerve on fire and heating everything in her body. Then, after several more moans (each more audible than the next), Lena pushed in until she was knuckle deep, making the girl cry out her name. Once she heard it, Lena curled her fingers firmly, stroking the tight, wet walls of Kara's sex.
"Come on, honey," the brunette urged her. "Tell me how good it feels. Cum for me."
A long whine of unbelievable volume escaped Kara's lips, completely involuntarily, and Lena felt the flood of arousal soak her hand as the girl's walls fluttered over and over again, tightly squeezing the two digits buried inside her core as she came hard.
"Fuck!" Kara screamed. "Fuck. Shit. Oh, my God."
Lena couldn't help but grin at this, thrilled by her partner's intense reaction to her movements. But she didn't let up as the girl came around her fingers. Instead, she used her thumb to rub faint circles over her clit as she kept curling her digits, until Kara finally begged for her to stop.
"One more?" Lena pleaded, wearing her best pouty face.
Kara shook her head, breathlessly saying, "Can't. I can't."
Lena started to slide her fingers out, but when Kara gasped, it was enough to urge her on, so she slid them back into the girl's core and curled them hard.
"Fuck!" the blonde cried out again, shocked by the renewed sense of fullness in her hot, clenching center. "Lena, I—"
"Come on, baby," Lena husked. "Be a good girl. One more time for me."
That was when the older girl's movements intensified, her movements frantic and forceful, and it took only moments for Kara's body to once again shake violently with an explosive orgasm that she screamed through entirely.
At the sound of this, Lena's own core dripped an excessive amount of arousal onto her thighs.
"You're so good for me, baby," she whispered, gently pulling the girl down on top of her as the fluttering of her walls came to an end and she finally removed her fingers from the blonde's core.
Panting for breath, Kara's chest heaved as she relaxed, melted into her lover's body.
"I love you," she breathed, still struggling for air. "I love you so much. That felt so fucking good."
"Knew you had another one in you," Lena teased, kissing the top of Kara's head.
After a few breaths that had finally slowed to a steady pace, Kara said, "Just… Just give me a minute. I'll give you—"
"No. You need sleep, honey. You can take care of me tomorrow, okay?"
"But I want—" the blonde whined. "I—"
"Shh. You're exhausted, darling. Get some rest. We'll have plenty of time for more later."
Sighing unhappily, disappointed by the fact that Lena was entirely correct, Kara gave a short nod and shut her eyes, clinging to her partner as she fell asleep almost instantly, with Lena rubbing her back in gentle circles.
