Okay, first of all, I'm sorry because it took me ages to post another chapter, but somehow I couldn't find the words and besides that I've been lazy! ;-)
If she had a once in a lifetime chance to stop time and hold on to one special moment forever, she wouldn't hesitate a minute. Not even a second. 'Oh my God.' Emma's heart was still beating wildly in her chest as she held on tight to Jenny who was lying on top of her, Jenny's body fitting perfectly against her own, her silky skin so unbelievably soft to the touch, her lips peppering her with the softest kisses while her hand slowly travelled back up her body, gently grazing her stomach, her side, fleetingly touching her breast before she carefully cupped her cheek. As Jenny's lips finally met her own, Emma felt Jenny smile into the kiss, but Emma had to break away after a couple of seconds because she was still struggling for breath. 'God, I can't. I'm still….wow.' Jenny was openly chuckling now, affectionately kissed the tip of her nose and brushed a sweaty strand of hair from her forehead. Emma could see the mixture of love and relief in her girlfriend's eyes. 'She's really been more nervous about this than me. How is that possible?' Emma smiled at Jenny and reluctantly let her roll off her so that she could settle down beside her, their legs still entwined beneath the blanket. 'I hope there isn't a rule against loving someone too much because I would have broken it once and again in the last couple of hours.' Emma giggled because of her own silliness and snuggled closer against Jenny who smiled at her with closed eyes.
"I love you." Jenny whispered at her as if she'd read her thoughts.
"I love you more."
"Mh. Not possible." Jenny replied tiredly.
"But I do." Emma insisted with a mischievous smile.
"Nope."
"I do." Emma repeated and sealed Jenny's lips with her own before she could contradict her again.
"Mh. That's unfair." Jenny mumbled against Emma's lips and chuckled.
"It's the only effective way to shut you up." Emma countered cheekily.
"That's one of the things I love about you. Your stubbornness."
"What?" Emma laughed. "That's what you love about me?"
"Yes." Jenny confirmed despite Emma's playful indignation. "And the way you look at me when you think I don't see it. And the way your breath hitches when I kiss your neck." she continued and did just that. They both chuckled when Emma reacted like Jenny had predicted. "See? The way you get goose bumps wherever I touch you." She pushed the blanket away and trailed her fingers slowly from Emma's stomach up to her breast to prove her point. "And finally…" she started with a knowing grin while her fingers still lingered on Emma's sensitive skin.
"Finally?" Emma repeated, rising to the bait while she bit her lip to stop herself from laughing.
"Finally…." Jenny kissed a path up her neck towards her ear and gently bit her earlobe. "Finally the way you pant out my name when I make you…outch!" Jenny yelped when Emma poked her into the side.
"I hate you!" Emma laughed.
"Aw, no, you don't."
"But I should!" Emma sulked playfully. Jenny laughed and kissed her before her face turned serious.
"I love everything about you. No one can be as happy as I am right now." she whispered and blew another soft kiss on Emma's lips. Despite everything that had happened between them in the previous hours, Emma's heart fluttered inside her chest when she heard Jenny's words. Just as she leant towards Jenny to kiss her again, a disturbing thought popped into her head. They were still lying in Ben's bed, and his room looked as if it had been hit by a bomb, Ben's clothes lying around everywhere.
"Did Ben tell you when he'll be back?"
"You mean we should…." Jenny started reluctantly and looked almost pleadingly at Emma, willing her to contradict her.
"…rather go back to your room?" Emma ended Jenny's sentence with a smile and kissed her softly.
"You're right." Jenny conceded grudgingly but didn't show the slightest inclination to leave Emma's side and get up. Instead, she rubbed her nose against Emma's, relishing her closeness. 'God, she can be so cute.'
"Mh. He could be back anytime soon." Emma said playfully and caught Jenny's lips in a kiss. 'I love her. Did I mention that already?'
"Mmmh. Although he said that he'd be gone for a while." Emma grinned widely when Jenny's lips met her own again.
"And what about that chaos in here?" Emma smiled into Jenny's kiss.
"We really should tidy that up." Jenny whispered with a goofy smile and slowly rolled on top of Emma.
"Definitely." Emma chuckled. 'I just can't get enough of her. How did that happen?'
"The sooner, the better."
Emma giggled when Jenny pushed herself up on her elbows to shove the blanket away that separated them and met Emma's lips in a kiss that quickly deepened. They both moaned at the renewed feeling of skin on skin. 'I can't believe I want her again. I can't believe I…..oh. Je….sus.'
ooooo
Jenny put the still dropping grapes into a bowl and turned towards Emma who was sitting comfortably on the kitchen counter, eating yoghurt. They'd finally given in to their growling stomachs and had reluctantly left Ben's bed, tidied up the chaos inside his room, changed the sheets and come down into the kitchen in search for something edible. She could watch Emma forever – her slightly tousled hair, the wide smile on her face, her cheeks that seemed to be glowing with happiness. 'Too bad she put some clothes on, though.' Jenny thought cheekily. 'I just can't get enough of her.' She dipped a grape into Emma's yoghurt and held it in front of her mouth, but as soon as Emma tried to take it, she dabbed it against her nose, her chin, her cheek, relishing Emma's burst of laughter, before she finally offered it to her again but ate it herself before Emma's lips could close around it, touching her nose against Emma's to create an even greater yoghurt mess.
"Great, now I'm completely covered in yoghurt!" Emma laughed with a playful pout.
"Oh, I guess we'll have to take a shower then!" Jenny stated with a mischievous smile as if this was the only logic solution and kissed some yoghurt off Emma's cheek. Just thinking about sharing a shower with Emma sent a warm shiver down her spine. Emma wiped some yoghurt from Jenny's nose, still laughing.
"Mh. I guess first of all we need to clean up in here."
Jenny looked at her with a painful expression on her face. "Nooo…later!" they said simultaneously and laughed, but gave a start when they heard someone clearing his throat behind them.
"Don't let me disturb you." Ben said with a smile as he stepped into the kitchen. 'Ben! Thank God we already tidied up his room.' Jenny didn't dare think about what would have happened if he'd been home an hour She Jenny looked at Emma who was obviously thinking the same and they couldn't help but giggle like 5-year-olds who've been caught stealing cookies from the jar.
"Erm….I thought you'd be gone a bit longer?" 'Ah, Jenny, great, why don't you ask him straight away why the fuck he dares to come home so early?'
"A little communication problem with Aphrodite."
"Aphrodite?"
"Greek Goddess of love." Emma explained.
"Mh. Am I supposed to understand what you're talking about?"
"No, don't worry about it. It looks as if you two had a nice evening?"
"Yes." Jenny replied while they both giggled again. "We do indeed."
"So, erm…yeah…I'll leave you to it, have fun!"
They were still laughing when they heard Ben climb upstairs and shut the door to his room.
"So….where were we? Oh, yes, I remember, we were talking about how we could get all that yoghurt off your face…" Jenny said and smiled seductively at her girlfriend. She leant towards her and kissed another spot of yoghurt off her cheek. "Too bad I'm not that hungry anymore." she added with a shrug of her shoulders and a cheeky glint in her eyes.
"Yes, too bad." Emma replied, playing along.
"Of course I can't allow you into my bed like that."
"Aw, why did I see that coming?" Emma laughed. "So….I guess there's only one solution then." she continued playfully.
"And what kind of a solution would that be?" Jenny asked her lips only millimetres away from Emma's.
"Mh, that should be kind of obvious." Emma said and gave Jenny a little peck on the lips. "I'm taking a shower while you clean up the kitchen."
"What? Emma Müller! You're evil!"
"Aw, I'm evil?"
"Yes, you are! But….I forgive you!"
"Just like that?"
"Just like that! As long as you take me with you and we clean up the kitchen later, that is."
Emma laughed again, her fingers playing with Jenny's hair. "Ben will hear us."
"No, he won't, we'll be quiet." As if on cue they heard music drift from Ben's room. Jenny lifted her brows in a 'Didn't I tell you?'-way and giggled when Emma hopped off the counter and pulled her behind herself towards the bathroom.
ooooo
"Grape harvest?" Stefan asked while he picked a lonely grape from his chair before he sat down at the breakfast table. 'Oh fuck.'
"Erm…no, we just were a bit hungry last night." Jenny replied and didn't dare look either at Ben or at her girlfriend whose embarrassment was emanating from her like heat.
"Oh. That explains everything." Stefan stated with a hint of amusement in his voice and took a sip from his coffee. 'He didn't hear us, did he? No. He couldn't. Relax.' She bit her lip when she felt Emma's reassuring hand on her knee.
"Today you'll have a rest from us, we'll be out partying later." Jenny said to change topics inconspicuously.
"Oh. Nice." Stefan replied. "I won't be there as well this weekend."
"What are you up to?" Bens asked.
"Short break."
"Where to?"
"Monaco."
"On your own?" Jenny asked with a knowing undertone that caused Emma to laugh.
"No." Stefan smiled.
"So who's the lucky one?" Jenny probed although she was already more than sure that he was planning a cosy weekend trip with their director Mrs. Schmidt-Heisig.
"I'm sorry, but my contingent of answers is already exhausted for today." Stefan said with a smile and got up. "I'm off to work, have a nice day!"
Jenny was still smiling when Stefan pulled the door closed behind himself. 'God, I'm so ridiculously happy, it's almost frightening.' She rested her hand on top of Emma's and drew soft circles on her skin with her thumb. 'I'll never get tired of touching her. Never.'
"I was wondering….is there a special reason why the usual chaos inside my closet has miraculously transformed into several piles of neatly folded clothes and the sheets on my bed have been changed?" Ben asked innocently although he couldn't quite hide a knowing grin on his face.
"Oh….erm…..we…" Jenny stammered, desperately searching for a plausible explanation that didn't include 'Sorry Ben, butthe way Emma was kissing me we just couldn't make it to my own room!'. 'Fucking hell, why am I blushing again?'
"We had to pimp Bodo a bit for his date with Lara." Emma stepped in hurriedly. "And we lent him some of your clothes, I hope you don't mind."
"Mh. No problem. And I guess afterwards the two of you were so tired that you kind of stumbled onto my bed and instantly fell asleep?"
"Erm….yeah….that's…."
Ben was openly laughing now. "Ah, yes, the pleasures of sweet young love. Seems as if I've been the only one who had a communication problem with Aphrodite last night." he said with a wink and got up. "Don't worry about it. I'm happy for you. Honestly." With a final wave in their direction, he grabbed his bag and left for school.
"Oh God!" Emma groaned and rested her head in her hands to hide her embarrassment. "He so knows!"
"Yes." Jenny laughed. "But you know what? I don't care." She got up, took hold of Emma's hands and sat down on her lap, straddling her.
"Hey!" Emma protested playfully. "This is my dance space and this is your dance space." she said with a smile and drew a line between them with their still joined hands.
"Is that so?" Jenny asked with a seductive smile and kissed her knuckles one by one. "Okay. As long as you don't tell me that you just carried a watermelon, everything's fine."
"Mh. If I remember correctly, Baby carrying the watermelon resulted in them dancing a heated Mambo shortly afterwards." Emma replied with a wink.
"Oh. Right." Jenny dipped her head and kissed Emma's neck. She smiled when she felt Emma's breath hitch at the gentle touch. "How about skipping the Mambo-scene and continuing with a later one?" She slowly pulled at Emma's plaid shirt until it exposed her shoulder while her other hand ran through Emma's hair.
"I don't think there was a scene of them having sex in the kitchen." Emma stated matter-of-factly.
"Oh. There was. They just cut it out." She gently bit the soft skin on Emma's shoulder and brushed the shirt further down her arms, mentally thanking her for not buttoning it up this morning.
"Did they?" Emma replied with a smile, playing along while Jenny relished the feeling of goose bumps erupting on Emma's skin wherever she touched her.
"Yes." Jenny blew a soft kiss on Emma's lips. "They did. Because it was too hot."
"I see. Did Johnny's cottage even have a kitchen?"
"Ah. Details." Jenny kissed her way back up Emma's neck and sealed her lips with her own, half-moaning, half-chuckling when Emma's hands sneaked beneath her shirt and wandered up her naked back. 'Gotcha!' She broke the kiss and cast a triumphant smile at Emma who only rolled her eyes at her and pulled her determinedly back against herself.
"Stop being annoying and come back here." Emma whispered. Jenny's response was lost in another kiss that threatened to make her insides melt. 'Jesus. I can't believe I'm ready for her again.' She moaned into Emma's mouth when the blonde opened the clasp of her bra beneath her shirt and slipped her hand under the lacy material to caress her breast.
"You'll be the death of me." Jenny panted with a smile and pressed her body even closer against Emma's.
"What? You started it, remember?" Emma smiled although she was breathing hard as well and fumbled with Jenny's belt. "You kind of leapt on me while I was innocently having breakfast."
Jenny laughed. "So innocently. Yeah. I'm sorry."
"Are you?" Emma asked playfully and stilled her fingers.
"No! No, I'm not. I'm not!" Jenny admitted hurriedly, sighing with relief and anticipation when Emma relented and finally opened the button of her pants. They'd be late for school, but Jenny couldn't have cared less at that moment. She needed to feel her or she'd explode right there on Emma's lap.
"I just forgot my…oh. Erm….keys." Both their heads shot around at the sound of Stefan's voice. "Found them. Bye!" They looked at each other in shock, the sound of the door banging shut behind Stefan still echoing in their ears when they broke into a fit of laughter.
"Oh my God! I will never ever be able to look Mr. Bergmann in the eyes again without blushing like a tomatoe!" Emma groaned and rested her head against Jenny's. "This is the most embarrassing situation ever, and even that's an understatement!"
"Just remember that he'll do quite similar things to Mrs. Schmidt-Heisig tonight, so I guess he'll get over it."
"Ah, no! I so don't want to think about him doing whatever to Mrs. Schmidt-Heisig!" Emma protested with a laugh and helped Jenny get up. 'God, I love her laugh. She's so fucking beautiful.' "Speaking of her – we're already late. Come on."
"What? Nonono, you can't leave me like that! I'll be so annoying and getting on your nerves all day long, you don't want that, do you? We'll go to my room and lock it three times, we can even throw the keys away, I don't care, but…." 'Am I begging her to have sex with me? Oh God, I am.' Jenny almost laughed out loud at her own silliness. Emma turned to look at her again and as soon as their gazes met, Jenny knew she'd won.
"You have to tell me how you do that." Emma said softly and took Jenny's hands in her own.
"Do what?"
"You look at me and I'm done for. That's so unfair."
"Oh, that! These are my secret super-powers, but I only use them for emergencies." Jenny replied with a cheeky grin.
"So this is an emergency then?" Emma asked her with a mockingly risen brow.
"Definitely."
"And what are we going to tell Mrs. Vogel? 'Sorry, we really couldn't attend your class because Mr. Bergmann walked in on us while we were making out at the breakfast table, so we had to head back to Jenny's bedroom and lost track of time?'"
"Something like that, yes."
Emma rolled her eyes at her again but relented and followed Jenny upstairs. 'I could get used to this.'
