Episode 22

Shotgun

A gentle breeze and cloudless night, moonlight lighting up the rooftop's as far as the eye could see, The street itself was quiet, The only noise was an Owl hooting in the distance and what few streetlamps there were caused the shadows of the tree's to appear to stretch on forever, It was peaceful as Max sat on the flat roof outside her window, Chloe next to her wearing a silly grin as she set about rolling herself a joint. "So, What's this in aid of,.Not that I'm complaining," Chloe said cheerily with a shrug as she put the Joint to her lips, lighting it and taking a deep drag and offering it to the Brunette. Max sat for a moment eyeing up the offering, "Sod it I earned it," she thought to herself giving a small shrug taking the Joint off her friend and putting it to her lips and pulling a little too hard, She felt the smoke pour down her throat and into her lungs causing her to cough and splutter as she tried to get some air. Chloe chuckled slightly while scootching herself closer taking the joint off her and rubbing her back, "Easy there super Max, You do need oxygen as well," she said tentatively as she took another hit herself.

Recovering from her coughing fit, Max glanced at the bluenette next to her with a half smile, "I guess it's just a thank you for being there for me,...Also, I guess," she said turning her attention to her shoelaces and sighed, "I guess an apology too,". Chloe tilted her head slightly raising her eyebrow, "oh," she replied inquisitively. The brunette continued playing with her shoelace absentmindedly and shrugged, "Ya know for, Passing out on you again," she muttered quietly. Chloe let out a chuckle as she took another pull on the joint, leaned back and grinned, "Yeah,.I was pissed, But not because you passed out," she said passing a sidewards glance at Max, Max leaned her head on her knee looking at Chloe confused, "huh," she mumbled, her mind momentarily a blank. Chloe took another pull on the joint and turned her gaze up to the night sky, "You dropped a bombshell on me, Max,...And then you wanted to take it back," her voice sounded like it was going to break. Max let out a sigh recalling how scared she was at the time and looked out across the neighborhood. "Chlo,.I didn't know,...I was scared ok," she stammered trying to get the words out. "Why is this so difficult, I've had this conversation in my head a hundred times," she thought to herself.

Chloe let out a scoff as she took another pull of the joint, "I know, and I knew then too, Didn't stop me being any less pissed though,..I'm not now by the way," she said giving Max a warm smile before returning her gaze up to the night sky. The two sat there in silence for a short while as Max was lost in her own thought's, "Urg, This is so frustrating, she knows how I feel, But I got no clue what she's thinking," she thought to herself looking off into the distance, "Max,...Do you trust me," Chloe's voice came playfully as she gave the Brunette a gentle shoulder bump? Max looked at the older girl with an accusing grin, "That depends, Do you have a gun," she asked playfully. Chloe let out a laugh, "Touche, No not this time," she shot back with a smirk. Max grinned and nodded, "Then I'll trust you Miss Price," she replied just as playfully as before.

Chloe gave a nod, "Ok then, Sit up and close your eyes," she instructed, Max did as she was told suddenly feeling a little nervous. "Ok now breath out, And then breath in through your nose and mouth slowly," Chloe ordered, Again she did as she was instructed, As she inhaled she felt a warmth flow down her throat into her lungs, The familiar taste of weed on her tongue, At first she thought she was going to choke again but the sensation never occurred, She could also feel a warmth near her lips, the source of which she couldn't identify, before she could even think she felt a warm firm moist pressure on her lips her eyes shot open, Her heart shot into her throat, her body froze as her mind went blank. "Is she...she's kissing me," was the only thought that she could process as she felt her blush expand from her cheeks to every part of her body.

All too soon, before Max could register a response of her own Chloe pulled away, returning to her sitting position next to the brunette wearing a smirk. Max sat for a moment frozen to the spot until her lungs began to scream reminding her to breathe by forcing her to cough as she struggled for air. "Wh,...What was that" Max spluttered between cough's and gasps for air. Chloe let out a small chuckle, "It's called a shotgun," she replied leaning back on the roof with her eyes closed and a small grin. "That wasn't just a shotgun, I seen enough to know that," Max thought to herself eyeing Chloe as she lay there with a grin on her face, Max could feel a gentle buzz starting to work it's way around her senses as well as every pulse of her heart as she clenched her fists in the fabric of her jeans, "ok, no more chickenshit," she thought to herself as she leaned over the bluenette, Her face inches away from Chloe's, her heart rate felt like a continuous thrum, Chloe opened her eye's and Max felt paralyzed again staring into those deep blue eyes, She let her eyes flick between Chloe's and her lips so close she could feel the blue haired girls steady breathing, she could feel her cheeks burning as her breathing became quick shallow pants, "Max MOVE, DO something" she thought to herself but her body refused to move.

Max felt a shiver down her spine as one of Chloe's fingers touched the back of her neck, trailing up her neck and gently fisting into her hair as Chloe pulled her down crushing her lips against her's, Her heart pounded as she felt the girls lips mould to her own moving softly as her own responded without any input from herself, She let herself relax into it, bringing a hand to cradle Chloe's cheek letting this moment wash away all her worries over the last weeks, She felt Chloe give her lip a playful nip, letting a gentle smile work its way onto her lips she returned the playful nip before making their lips one again. Reluctantly pulling away a little in order to breath Max took a moment to look at Chloe's expression, Lightly rosed cheeks, a soft smile and her eyes, Those eyes looked so alive, almost as if changing shades of blue, It was mesmerizing, "I guess this means," she began in a quiet voice before Chloe pulled her back down crushing their lips together again feverishly, Max felt Chloe's tongue gently press against her own lips hesitantly she allowed entry into her mouth, Greeting the visitor with her own tongue, the two performing a dance of their own as Max felt Chloe's other hand on her hip pulling her on top of the bluenette straddling her, Her breath hitched, followed by a gentle moan as Chloe's hand moved from her hip to the base of her back up her loose shirt and gently clawed at the skin of her back sending shocks through her body causing a delicious shiver up her spine.

Max collapsed onto the bluenette's chest, Panting lightly as she gently nuzzled Chloe's neck letting slip a satisfied moan. Chloe wrapped her arms lazily around Max trying to get her own breathing under control, "Shit,...who taught you to kiss," she sighed softly resting the side of her face on Max's head, Max gave a small shrug, "Just some troublemaker with blue hair I know," she mumbled playfully, "Shut up," Chloe retorted squeezing Max a little, "Really,". Max nodded into the punks chest muttering an "uh huh," feeling her cheeks burn again. Chloe furrowed her brow, then raised her brows as the obvious struck her, "You mean you've never..." Max shook her head, trying to bury her now scarlet face deeper into the punks chest. Chloe let out a chuckle feeling the brunette trying to hide, "Common let's get inside, As nice as this is out here my ass is numb," she continued softly as she pushed herself up with Max still firmly in her lap face buried in her chest. Max let out a begrudged moan as she got to her feet offering her hand to the older girl helping her up before disappearing back in the window.

Inside Chloe kicked off her boots and grabbed the nightdress her mom had bought her while Max was out of it and quickly slipped it on, making short work of removing her other clothes from underneath before turning to the bed which Max was already in covers up to her nose her eyes snapping away from Chloe as she turned, But she didn't miss a beat, "Enjoy the show," she teased as Max tried to sink further under the duvet her ears glowing red. Chloe walked over and slid in beside the brunette, propping herself up on her elbow looking at Max with a gentle smile, "So," she sighed bringing her free hand up to the edge of the duvet that threatened to swallow Max and giving it a gentle tug to reveal a very scarlet faced brunette, "Just in case it wasn't clear...I'm into you too," she said softly leaning forwards planting her lips onto the brunette.

Max felt her heart soar on hearing those words as she let the blue haired girl lead the dance of their lips, she found herself wrapping her arms around the other girls neck pulling her closer, It was Chloe that pulled away a little out of the necessity that was breathing but rested her forehead on the brunettes, Max bit her bottom lip as she stared into the abyss that was the deep blue of Chloe's eyes, "I feel like I've been waiting forever to do that," she mumbled softly, more to herself than to Chloe. The blue haired girl wore a playful smirk, "There's much you've been waiting for Ms. Caulfield, All in good time, though," she teased giving Max's nose a playful nip. Max shot a playful scowl at the bluenette, "Are you trying to corrupt me Ms. Price," she tried to say in a firm tone but failed to keep the playfulness out of her voice. "Well duh," Chloe replied as she attempted to nip the younger girls nose again only for her to roll on her side into a ball, causing Chloe to face plant the pillow, "I shall remain impervious to your corruption," Max replied, she was trying to sound sincere but the image of Chloe's faceplant made her let slip a giggle. For a moment she thought she might have done something wrong when there was no movement from the girl beside her, But a light touch of fingernails on her neck washed the thought away as the fingernails themselves brushed her hair to one side.

A moment later she felt a warm breath on the small exposed part of her neck sending a warm shiver down her spine as a pair of moist lips planted a series of gentle kisses on the small patch of sensitive skin, "Hey I'm Imperv...imper...im...Oooh," she tried to protest but knew she had already lost, "Gah,.I didn't even know," Her thought's turned mush as her thinking capacity quickly became overwhelmed by the bluenette's tender assault, Max let out a gentle moan as she turned her head slightly allowing the bluenette access to the rest of her neck, Not missing the invitation Chloe went to work planting soft kisses and gentle nips up and down the young girls neck, from her shoulder up to the spot just behind her earlobe, each one causing Max to shudder or let slip what Chloe thought was a series of adorable little moans. Max could feel her heart pounding in her chest as she absentmindedly reached out to grab something settling for the corner of a pillow as Chloe continued to play her neck with her lips causing her to melt, Reaching over for Chloe's hand and entwining their fingers she brought the older girls hand round to her chest as she pressed herself back into the older girl, the heat building deep in her chest was almost unbearable, a small part of her was begging for the torture to stop she felt like she was going to burst, The rest of her body, however, had other idea's as it pressed itself into the bluenette's slender frame, All too soon Chloe stopped her assault, Panting lightly herself she whispered smugly into the brunette's ear, "Resistance is futile," as she tightened her hold on the smaller girl, burying her face into the brunette's neck, Max couldn't even muster a comeback so settled for a satisfied moan as she felt each of Chloe's breaths gently on the back of her neck, both girls smiling as they slipped into a peaceful sleep.


HALALULYA

I promised it would happen so there it is, Hope it came over ok, My first time writing anything like that (hella lot of firsts in this story). Again a little short but that's three over Christmas sooo yeah. :P

Might be obvious but I feel Max comes across as someone who, while they've seen/read a lot of stuff, Hasn't really got any experience like at all,

Chloe, on the other hand, Know's how to play the game...Buuut Max is a fairly quick study, should be interesting.

Im planning on getting these two back to arcadia real soon and start having some fun with the other characters as well as giving the 'scooby gang' a little mystery to solve so there's that to look forward too. I have one major time travel event planned and its crossing into something I have already written... so that's gonna be a headache but sooo worth it, (10+ episodes away yet) But there will be small stuff and probably lots of time stops as there easier to keep track of. :P

Anyhow, Comments and critique welcome as always

Have a Happy new year...don't drink too much...Or do
