Chapter 7 – Mistletoe and Wine, Kisses and Blood.
It had been 7 months since the girls had found each other. They'd been living together for nearly 3 of those now and they were getting ready to celebrate their first Christmas as a couple. Luckily for them there'd been no more of the killings Hunter had come to make them aware of, things had just fell into place and neither girl could remember the last time they'd been so happy.
"Close your eyes" Rachel whispered to the unsuspecting blonde who was attempting to drape tinsel around their Christmas tree.
Quinn closed her eyes and turned around to face her.
"Okay, open em' Fabray"
Quinn opened her eyes to see Rachel stood on her tiptoes holding a piece of mistletoe above them; she smiled at the sweet sight before lowering her lips to her sweetheart of a girlfriend's.
"That was nice" she said softly as they pulled away from the warm embrace.
"I love Christmas, now sweetie, do tell me what you're trying to do to that poor tree" Rachel said with an amusing smile, Quinn responded by instead draping the brunette with the tinsel.
"Hey, I wasn't the one that decided we needed a tree about 3 times the width of the two of us together, I had to order the tinsel online just to get it long enough!" she laughed.
"It's a beauty you said so yourself"
"I did, although maybe I was just taken in by the beauty I get to call my girlfriend" the blonde winked playfully.
Quinn's comments never failed to bring a slight pink flush to Rachel's cheeks.
"Not as beautiful as my girlfriend" she beamed.
"I love you" she sighed happily giving the flushed brunette a sweet peck.
"So, have we sorted who's coming here for Christmas now?"
"Mercedes, Brittany and Santana. They'll arrive Christmas Eve so we'll have to get the guest room sorted in the next few days, and I'm sure Hunter will probably stop by at some point depending where he is"
"It's gonna be like, the sleepover we never had during High School"
"Would you of wanted to sleep in the same room as Brittany and Santana back then?"
"..Good point, they weren't exactly the shyest of people"
"Remember when they got caught in the Janitor's closet"
"How could we not they nearly gave that poor guy a hard attack!" the two girls laughed.
There'd been a brief silence while the girls continued to decorate their tree; it was magnificently adorned with tinsel and baubles.
"Are you nervous at all?" Rachel asked sensitively.
"Not really, you put me at ease" Quinn smiled, "besides I'll make sure I'm well fed long before they get here"
"Shoot, we forgot to pick up the star for the tree" the brunette frowned noticing their mistake.
"Want me to go pick one up? I can pick up food on the way back"
"Sure"
Quinn threw on a jacket and left Rachel to it. She put away the things they weren't using and opened a bottle of wine. She was struck with inspiration.
She found candles and matches covering the bathroom in them, filled the bath with aromatherapy oils and set some Christmas carols playing softly in the background. Perfect.
As she heard Quinn coming back through the door she slipped into the bath with a wine glass in hand.
"Sweetie I'm back"
"In here" the brunette announced smiling.
The blonde pushed the slightly ajar door and was taken aback at the sight before her. The dimly lit bathroom, the flickering candles, and the sweet sounds she now noticed coming from their bedroom. Her girlfriend sat awaiting her pouring her a glass of wine.
"Rachel" she breathed
"Don't say anything, just get in here already" the brunette replied softly.
Quinn quickly shed her clothing and joined her. She sank into the water with a contented sigh taking the glass with a smile.
"You're the sweetest person in existence, you know that?"
"How can I be, that position's already taken by you"
The blonde played absentmindedly with her girlfriend's hair. Girlfriend, she really never tired of being able to call her that.
Baby it's Cold Outside began playing and Rachel sang along softly as she laid her head back against Quinn's shoulder.
"This is perfect, and when we go to bed, I'm going to make love to you my sweet sweet girl" Quinn whispered making the small brunette shiver.
The blonde smiled and planted a gentle kiss on her neck.
"Bite me" Rachel whispered making Quinn laugh.
"You do always ask for what you want"
"Bite my neck"
Quinn pulled her head back slightly amused. "I can't give you a hickey"
"I know that, I meant..feed"
"I can't Rachel, you'll have a mark"
"So I'll cover it"
Quinn groaned, "why do I get the feeling you're not going to take no for an answer"
Rachel smirked, "because we both have a tendency to get what we want"
The blonde was debating ways to put Rachel off when she felt the girl's small hands stroking her thighs.
"I'll convince you, if you want me to"
"Sounds tempting"
"Bedroom?"
"Lead the way, devil"
They barely made it to the bedroom before they were pawing at each other. Quinn made quick work of pinning the smaller girl beneath her, smiling as she straddled her hips and pushed her hair away from her face.
She dropped her face to Rachel's neck planting sweet tender kisses as she gently stroked her arms. She could feel her heart pounding in her chest as her lips grazed her jugular; Rachel's blood and scent were intoxicating.
The brunette giggled turning the pair over so now Quinn was underneath her.
"If you don't wanna bite my neck I'm not gonna make you..tonight"
"You never give up so easily, what are you after?" the blonde said eying her suspiciously.
The brunette shrugged her shoulders running her hands down the other girl's bare front causing her breathing to hitch slightly. She gently placed her small knee between Quinn's legs and hovered over her face.
"Whatever it is, you can have it" Quinn said gazing at Rachel through desire filled eyes.
"So I can give you a hickey?"
"If you want to, yes"
Rachel wasted no time in attacking Quinn's neck. Kissing, licking and sucking the warm skin beneath her, nipping gingerly at the skin between her teeth. Her hands, not being idle, gently massaging the blonde's exposed breasts. Rachel's back was being clawed at, just egging her on to be more daring and less gentle. Her hand trailed down and caressed the taller girl's clit, almost on impulse Quinn's hips bucked and a ragged groan escaped her throat.
"Forget, about the neck, please" she pleaded, the brunette smiled pulling away from her neck trailing kisses down Quinn's body until she reached her hips.
Rubbing the hipbones slightly before dropping her head into her lap eliciting more groans from the blonde. Her hands moved over her thighs as her tongue lapped at the wetness she'd created, Quinn's body moved under her and she felt a pair of hands tangle in her hair.
Her tongue dancing over her clit causing the nub to throb more and more, Quinn had begun biting her lip. Sensing her girl was close she moved to Quinn's entrance darting her tongue in and out at a pace that would quickly send the blonde over the edge.
It wasn't long before the grip on her hair got tighter and tighter, Rachel knew from their previous bedroom activities that Quinn had a habit for hair pulling.
With a last and increasingly loud moan the body beneath Rachel ceased quivering and she could hear her girlfriend exhaling.
She lifted her head to look at her with a smile; Quinn had bitten her lip so hard she was bleeding quite a bit. Rachel crawled back up her body and gently licked the blood from her mouth.
"And there I was thinking I was the vampire" Quinn chuckled.
"What can I say; you're rubbing off on me"
The blonde smirked at her.
"Wait til I get my breath back Berry, I'll do more than rub"
