Warning! Smut ahead!
Chapter 22. First Somethings
The gang arrived back to Sanctuary safely. Together they went up to the HQ to where the others were waiting. When Maya walked in and saw her lovers smile her heart nearly stopped. She had been sitting on the railing of the balcony, staring out into the streets of Sanctuary with her chin in her hand and her elbow resting on her knee. Her red hair glowed in the setting sun, her orange eyes lit up like fire. When she turned to Maya once realizing her presence, her face lit up with a smile and Maya was sure the world was standing still.
"Hey killer. Long time no see."
She jumped from her place on the railing and took Maya into her arms, holding her there as though she was the most precious thing in the world. The boys could be faintly heard in the War room as Axton and Brick animatedly filled in Roland about the days events, but Maya had no care for the mission. She was just happy it was over, and she was here. For now she would forget that she would inevitable have to go back out and do it all over again.
"I've missed you," Maya whispered.
"I've missed you too," Lilith said lovingly, stroking her silky tresses. "Would you like to come shower?"
"Oh my God yes!"
They entered the War Room where they found the boys catching up. "Hey fellas, we're gonna go grab a shower. We will see you at Moxxi's in a few hours yeah?" Lilith called as they walked through.
"Hell yeah Lil, you gotta tell me all the bad ass shit you've been up to while I was gone!" Brick boomed, smiling.
Lilith returned the smile, happy to see her old friend, "wouldn't miss it! See you guys there."
The pair ventured down the stairs and back into the streets, walking in the direction of their loft.
"Will you…shower with me again?" Maya asked quietly. She so wanted Lilith's hands washing her body again.
"I'd love to baby," she said, grabbing her by the waist and pressing a kiss to her temple as they continued to walk. I hope Brick didn't give you too hard a time when you got there? He really loves violence that one. Thank God he prefers to inflict it on Hyperion."
Maya couldn't help but laugh, "he is a beast, but he was also very kind to us. Despite that uhm, initiation. But it was fun regardless! The mission went off without a hitch."
Lilith chuckled, opening the door to their apartment. "I'm glad."
They entered the apartment and locked in a fierce kiss, desperate and needy. Maya clung to Lilith kissing her victoriously. The only thing that could top a perfect day was coming home to this.
Lilith smiled into the kiss, "seems like you had a good day."
Maya nodded, biting at her lip playfully then breaking the kiss. "it really was! I wish you could've been there, I'd love to see the state of Hyperion if there had been four of us there."
Lilith sobered slightly at this and she began to peel off her clothes. Maya wouldve been drooling had it not been for her lovers change in attitude.
"What is it?" she asked softly, carefully taking off her own clothes and watching the red head.
Lilith bit her lip, "We're getting closer and closer to Jack. Roland thinks is best I stay away, he thinks there might be some plan to hurt me, or even kill me, cause' of what Angel said. But...I hate not being there." She started the water to the shower and stepped in, not caring if it was heated up or not. Maya hung back, waiting for Lilith to continue. "The next mission is gonna have you go to Opportunity, a city built by Handsome Jack. It will be teeming with trained Hyperion soldiers and loaders, i-I know that Roland would have probably preferred you wait to be briefed, but I needed you to know. The road leading here was dangerous, but this is different." Lilith swallowed hard, looking as though she did not want to continue, but she went on, "This will be yours and Axtons biggest test. And there's nothing I can do to help."
Maya went to Lilith now, stepping in the shower and pulling her close as the hot water washed over them, the sound of it running and hitting the floor was comforting. "Axton and I will make it," she said firmly. "We have only improved an already amazing partnership on the battlefield. I promise you, we will come back. What…what is it we're doing there?"
Lilith sighed held on a little tighter. "You gotta kill Jack's double and find a way to get a recording of his voice in order to open that door. Then once your in control core Angel, who knows…Jack himself might be there. He's not going to give up Angel without a fight."
"He can fight all he wants," Maya said, pulling back to look at her lovers face. "We're getting that vault key."
Maya hummed as she was cut off with a soft kiss from the red head. Lilith's mouth began to wander, trailing kisses down the left side of her jaw and down her neck. She sucked at the skin where her pulse had been throbbing causing her breath to catch. Lilith's words sat heavily with her; death was a very real possibility, it was so before this point and even more now. Opportunity was going to be one of their most dangerous missions yet, and infiltrating control core Angel was going to prove to be near impossible. She found herself wanting to remember this moment, clinging to her lover in the shower. Gaining all these new experiences with Lilith. She didn't want to be experiencing any feelings of regret should her time come, and so she made a decision right then and there. Her body was Lilith's, to hell with what The Order told her. She knew now she wanted to experience all of it with her Siren.
But somewhere during her thoughts Lilith had stopped her ministrations and had begun squirting shampoo into her hand, directing Maya to turn around so she could wash her hair. How would she bring it up now? She had hoped it would just happen organically right then and there in the shower. Can people even do that in the shower? Should I just ask when we get out? Is asking for…that, too forward?!
The uneasiness began to settle within her once again and she found herself way too embarrassed to ask for such a thing in words. So for now she just bit her lip and let Lilith wash her hair. She tried not to focus too much on her worries, but they kept hammering at her mind. Ask her, don't ask her, ask her, don't ask her. She knew logically that Lilith would never make her feel embarrassed, and she would in fact most likely oblige Maya in her request. She just couldn't find the words.
Maya turned to face her lover and took her turn in washing her hair. If Lilith did notice the gears turning in Maya's head, she didn't show it. Lilith had been speaking on about the happenings at Sanctuary while they were gone but Maya could barely hear her. She managed to nod and engage enough to hide her anxieties.
They finished washing rather quickly and all too soon Lilith was stepping out from the shower and grabbing for a towel. She tossed one to Maya, "here ya go killer," and began to scrub at her hair with her own, padding out of the room and back into the living area.
Maya chewed her lip and wrapped the towel around her, clutching the front until her knuckles were white. She needed to stop freaking out. Did she just expect Lilith to make the first move? Is she always going to make Lilith act first? She loved her, and that love was returned. I don't have anything to worry about damnit!
She followed Lilith out to the main area and watched as she went to the dresser and dropped the towel that had clung to her. Pale flesh complimented with rippling muscle filled her vision and she felt her core grow warm. Her gaze shifts away, a flush creeping to her face.
"What do you wanna wear?" Lilith says absentmindedly as she rummages through the drawer.
Maya swallowed and tried to ignore the pounding in her ears. "I don't think we should get dressed yet."
Her voice was so quiet she wasn't quite sure she had even said that out loud. But Lilith had heard, and she turned to face Maya, her beautiful breasts on display and her gorgeous red hair dripping and messy. She looked beautiful, and her nakedness spurred Maya on further, and she too dropped her towel to the floor. Immediately after she wasn't quite sure why she did that, and wrapped her arms around herself with embarrassment. She opened her mouth to speak, but nothing came out.
Lilith crossed the room to her with what seemed to be a look of understanding. Maya was afraid, and Maya needed her. She needed that reassurance that she was beautiful, desired, and loved. That this was all okay. That everything will be okay.
The red head stops mere inches from Maya's trembling lips and begins to trace her fingertips along Maya's jawline, up to her cheekbones and across her forehead and back down along the frame of her face. Maya couldn't help but lean into her touches. When Lilith's touch ghosts over her full lips she couldn't help but sigh. She now wanted this, whatever this was badly. She saw how it made Lilith come undone, she wanted to be there with her.
Liliths hands go to the back of her neck, her fingers snaking up into her hair and digging into her scalp and giving such an ever so slight tug causing Maya's next breath to come out sharp and ragged against her mouth. She seizes the opportunity to take Maya's lips into her own in a fierce display of passion eliciting small cries from within her throat. Maya was tense however, almost frozen clutching onto Liliths arms with her nails digging so hard it nearly hurt.
Liliths hands went from her hair and back to the sides of her face, cupping her cheeks and rubbing soothing circles on her jaw as she broke the kiss and panted into her mouth.
"its okay, don't hold back." Lilith said in a low voice. "Show me."
Maya's response was immediate; it wasn't that it was rough or forceful, but it was clear that she had finally let herself go. The moan that tumbles from her lips is enough to send shudder vibrating down Lilith's own spine and the electricity in the room only intensifies as Maya leans in to kiss her with newfound fervor. When she feels the shy Siren's tongue gently nudging, begging for entrance, she can only happily oblige.
Maya's mind feels like it's somehow exploding but blank all at the same time. Lilith's hands clasp hard on her hips and she's pulled closer to the red head with as much enthusiasm as she herself felt, and she realizes that Lilith and Axton had been right all along. The feeling she had plaguing her mind and groin ever since she had met the Firehawk had been desire, and it was now a raging inferno threatening to swallow her whole. It was painfully evident now as the juices pooled between her legs and her nipples began to stiffen. Her hands involuntarily go to Lilith's hair to grip the base of her skull and she can feel her arms trembling as she does it, desperate to be closer. The sensation of Lilith's tongue exploring every inch of her mouth was so hot her body is reacting in ways that can only be described as overwhelming yet incredible. She is trying to memorize every little thing that gains a reaction out of the red head as well, but is failing miserably as Lilith was quickly taking away any focus she had.
Suddenly she feels hands in her own hair, and her head is being tilted back and the hot mouth that was once on her lips was now leaving opened mouth kisses against her throat. Every so often she would linger on a certain patch of skin and suck gently before moving on again. She knew the sensitive area where her pulse raced underneath the soft skin, and ghosted her breath across it and gently nipped at the beating flesh with her teeth. Maya shudders, a moan tearing from her lips and she was sure she had said Lilith's name.
But the love, the love she could feel radiating off of the red head was thick and heavy and beautiful. Lilith had leaned back and softened her kisses until they were the barest touches and Maya quickly relished in the feeling and how sweet it was, and she knew it would always leave her longing for more.
But the fire still burned brightly below in Maya's loins, and she pressed forward once again deepening their kiss. Lilith let out a low grow, "I love how you're not holding back."
This allowed Maya to push further, and she found herself finally getting them off their feet and onto the nearby bed, Maya going first and pulling Lilith on top of her. The red head reached behind her and pulled the blankets over them before she went to work sucking on the sensitive flesh of Maya's neck. Her mind went blank and all she could do was dig her nails into Lilith's shoulders and gasp.
It was all so much, but at the same time she couldn't get enough. When she felt warm fingers trailing up her stomach she feels her back begin to arch, her body desperately seeking more of whatever feeling this was. It started with her back, and then her hips rose with it, when suddenly-
A cry echoed in the room around them, and she knew it was hers as Lilith's mouth was still latched on her pulse. When her core made contact with the red heads strong thigh, there was an electricity that ran through her and caused a fresh wave of wetness and arousal to hit her center so sharp and so fast that for a moment she thought she might faint.
Lilith ceased her ministrations on Maya's neck and leaned back to look her in the eyes and God, she was beautiful. Her orange eyes were blazing like fire, her lips full and red and just so kissable. She was looking at Maya as though she was the most beautiful creature she had ever seen.
"If there's anything you don't like, or if you just want this to stop, you let me know okay?" she said softly, lovingly.
Maya just nodded because she felt as if she tried to speak it would be an incoherent mess. Besides, she couldn't imagine Lilith doing anything she wouldn't possibly like and she definitely didn't want this to stop. The fiery need was still burning out of control, and she needed something.
Lilith suddenly began moving herself down Maya's body and when her face got near the apex of her legs she thought she may die of embarrassment and anticipation all at once, but Lilith had kept going and settled between them. Her hands had wrapped around her legs and pulled one of them close to her and began to lightly suck the soft flesh of her inner thigh. The warm feeling of her tongue combined with her heated breath that fluttered over her skin and down to her dripping center could only be described as intoxicating. She can't think, and certainly can't look, for she knew it would be too much for her heart to handle. When Lilith groans into her flesh her hand can't help but fly into her red hair, tightening her hold as though it were the only thing grounding her in this moment. The Siren shifts her mouth in some sort of way Maya can't describe, and she hits a spot that puts the arch in her back all over again and her hand removes itself from her hair and instead clutches the bed sheet tight, for it is more solid, more stable. She knows she is crying out now, swearwords and gasps mixed in with the whimpers and moans.
"HaaaAAAAH! FUCK! Lilith oh fuck….oh my God…"
She clutches the sheets tighter as Lilith's mouth finds another spot, and now nearly her entire body has lifted from the mattress , an involuntary cry ripping from her throat and she suddenly finds that this is too much. Her mind was blanking, she was sure her heart was about to give out-
"AHHH FUCK LILITH WAIT-stop!" she cried, jerking away from the red head who had now sat up and crawled to her, concern etched on her face.
"Maya? Are you okay? I'm so sor-"
Maya placed a hand on her lovers heaving chest, her other going to her lips effectively silencing her. "Shhh, no, don't-It was just so much, I got…scared for a moment," she said, sounding small. "I just need you to stay close to me during this?" it sounded more like a question.
Lilith's gaze softened and she lowered herself to Maya, capturing her lips in a slow, sweet kiss. "Of course baby."
Maya feels a hand shaking underneath her and resting on her back. Lilith pulled her close, so close their bodies were pressed together and the feeling of Lilith's breasts on hers is so much-but not too much-combined with every slight feeling in between was enough to send her mind reeling. She kissed her deeply, but Maya was also aware of the knee gently pushing her legs further apart which sent a tremble of anticipation rippling over her body. There was another touch, light as a feather, ghosting along her hips and gently caressing her abdomen. Lilith's fingers were tracing her muscles, before they trailed even further south causing her breath to hitch and a moan escape into Lilith's mouth. When the touch ghosts outside the wetness between her legs she let's her head fall back and whimpers.
"Ahh, Lilith…ohhhh…"
She's only faintly aware of the warm breath by her ear accompanied by the soft kisses placed here and there on her cheek. The other hand is still under her, pulling her even closer and Maya can't help but wrap her arms tighter around her Siren. They were in a beautiful embrace, and Maya couldn't think of a more perfect moment to give herself to the Firehawk.
She almost speaks when she feels the finger trace her soft, wet folds. She immediately forgets how.
Her whimpers grew louder as Lilith's warm hand caressed her lips gently and purposefully. The fingers press deeper until she is deep in her slit, but not quite inside. A long, low moan tumbles from Maya's lips, the feeling is every bit as amazing as her lover described it would be. She couldn't believe this was actually happening, that she was actually experiencing sex with a lover. The idea was once absurd and terrifying, but now it felt so right. It was everything.
Lilith is whispering something sweet in her ear but she can't hear her now. She doesn't have the slightest clue in what she is saying but she loves the sound and she clings to it, for it is the only recognizable thing she has at this point. The fingers moving up and down her slick folds seem to be searching, until they find something that has Maya's head flying back and a sharp cry echoing through the room.
"Look at me," Lilith whispers, and Maya isnt sure if she can. The fingers had found what they were looking for, a throbbing swollen nub that had Maya's body set on fire and her mind turned to mush and the fingers were still rubbing and caressing the strange nub that had been hidden within her folds. An area so sensitive it made other areas pale in comparison. She can't look, instead her body lurches forward and her head was now resting on her lovers shoulder and all she could do was breathe hard and hang on for dear life as Lilith's hand was still working magic on her.
"Maya please, let me see you."
The desperation in her voice forces her eyes open, and all she could see was the burning fire in the eyes of her lover, along with a blue glow lighting up the features of her face and she realizes with a start that both of their Siren tattoos are glowing and it's beautiful- she is beautiful- and she wants to tell her but there was something building inside of her, something bigger then words could say. With every stroke to her dripping center something was rising closer and closer to the surface, she wondered briefly if it was her first orgasm but she couldn't be sure for she had never felt one.
"Lil-Lilith, haaaaah, ohhhh FUCK s-somethings…happening!" She cried as she tore her eyes away and squeezed them shut, burying her face into Lilith's neck.
"I know baby, it's okay, just let it out. I'm right here," Lilith said softly as she tightened the grip she had on Maya's back, holding her to her as her other hand stroked her faster.
Maya's body was thrown into an utter chaos, her entire body trembling and jerking. Her hips began to buck uncontrollably into the hand, grinding into deeper trying to satisfy the building feeling that was now shooting from her core to the rest of her body. The pressure was building impossibly higher, whatever was happening it was going to come to a head. Her breath was now coming out in heaving, ragged breaths and gasps, it was all she could do to get any oxygen at all.
"AH! AH! AH! AAAAAAHHHHHHHH LILITH!"
Her hips bucked furiously for a few moments until a flash of heat, hotter than the scorching sands of Pandora starts low in her core and explodes outward to the rest of her body. Her nails dug desperately into her lovers perfect pale skin, and she thinks-no, knows she is yelling something, but then there's just Lilith.
The world slowly comes back into focus, her body still spasming with aftershocks of whatever the hell that was. She feels tender hands slipping through her hair, brushing it from her face and she realizes that Lilith has climbed off her and was now laying on her side next to her, propped up on her elbow. She wraps an arm around Maya and pulls her close, pressing their fronts together in delicious warmth. When she dares to open her eyes, they are met with glowing orange orbs looking at her lovingly and it's almost too much all over again and she feels tears begin to well.
"I hope those are tears of joy," Lilith whispered with a slight smirk. She reaches to Maya's eyes and gently dabs away a tear that was threatening to fall. She nods immediately because while she knows Lilith is just teasing, there is an undercurrent of worry laced in her voice and expression, worry that Maya really was okay and that she held no regrets.
"That was-that-we-" Maya stammered, her face turning scarlet at her own incoherent babbling. Lilith just chuckled and leaned down gifting her with a soft kiss to which Maya surrenders immediately and sighs into Lilith's mouth.
The tears were coming down now and she couldn't stop them. But they were most definitely happy tears. She never knew the human body could feel so good. She had missed out all these years thinking something terrible would happen but she was so wrong, but she was relieved she had waited for Lilith. She wanted her to be her first, only, and forever.
She smiled wide when Lilith broke the kiss, and the two laughed together as Lilith wiped her tears and kissed her cheeks.
"Amazing," Maya whispered. "You're amazing."
"You're not bad yourself," Lilith joked earning a loving tap to the shoulder from Maya.
"I wish we could stay here forever," Maya said forlornly.
"Once this is all over, we will stay here forever."
Maya buried her head into Lilith's chest, her grin growing wider. She felt nothing but utter perfection in this moment. Little did she know, Lilith was stewing in silent torment.
As the red head held her lover, she couldn't help but think of the things to come. It worried her deeply to think that this could very well be the first and last time she would make love to Maya. She didn't want to worry her, but she knew what was coming. She knew how badly it could end. Maya, I'm sorry…
Maya squeezed her tightly, "I love you so much," she whispered.
Lilith felt her own tears sting at her eyes, but she just squeezed Maya back and never let her voice e falter. "I love you too," she said kissing the top of her head. "forever."
