Sigh. It was Monday morning, and Kitty's first day back at school after her accident. She gazed at herself in the mirror and tried adjusting her high-pony. Marley watched her from the bed, silently adoring how beautiful her girlfriend looked. Damn this ponytail. Why does coach even make us wear them? Kitty grunted, turning her body this way and that. But, to no avail; the pony didn't look near perfect enough for cheerios.
"Marley, could you help me?" Kitty turned and faced her girlfriend, frowning. Marley smiled encouragingly and walked up behind her.
"I know you are frustrated with how limited your stitches are making you, but they come out next week." Marley cooed, gently gathering Kitty's hair in her hands. Kitty exhaled loudly.
"Not soon enough.." Kitty mumbled. Marley laughed as she finished fixing Kitty's hair, and wrapped her arms around her girlfriend.
"You look beautiful." Marley muttered into Kitty's hair, taking in the scent. Kitty turned to face her girlfriend.
"So do you. You know that, right?" Kitty said half-heartedly, feeling like the journey to Marley's recovery would be absolutely endless.
"If you say so." Marley shrugged, releasing her girlfriend and collecting their backpacks from her bed. Kitty gazed sadly at her girlfriend. She knew that Marley's recovery process would take a long time, and she had the patience to be with her every step of the way. But she couldn't help feel a pang of guilt every time she saw Marley looking at herself in the mirror, or standing on the scale.
"Come on, my mom will give us a ride to school a little early. But she insisted on making us breakfast first.." Marley grimaced. Kitty felt her heart break; but grabbed her girlfriend's hand, giving it an encouraging squeeze. Marley smiled back at her, and led Kitty down the stairs.
"Good morning, you two!" Marley's mother chirped from the kitchen, already wearing her uniform for school.
"Morning!" Marley and Kitty said in unison, giggling at how cute is sounded. Marley's mother put her hand to her heart momentarily, before returning to her cooking. Marley frowned at the layout; her mother had made eggs, bacon, pancakes, smoothies, and french toast.
"Kitty and I went shopping yesterday; she insisted on buying you breakfast...again!" Marley's mother smiled warmly at Kitty, earning the same in response.
"Oh, you two didn't have to do this.." Marley seemed to mutter more for herself than everybody else. Kitty led Marley to the table, and took a place next to her. She leaned over and placed a kiss on Marley's shoulder, smiling up at her. Marley beamed and gripped the back of Kitty's neck, pulling her in for a chaste kiss.
"Hey, you two. Keep it G-rated for the table." Marley's mother said jokingly.
"Pfff...that was high-class G-rated to what we usually do.." Kitty mumbled under her breath, earning a kick from Marley under the table. Kitty played with her silverware, smirking at how red her girlfriend's face had turned. Marley's mother walked to the table with two plates, setting one in front of each of the girls.
"Oh my gosh, yum! Thank you, Mrs. Rose." Kitty said, feeling her mouth water slightly at the sight. Marley's mother chucked.
"You're welcome, Kitty."
"Oh! Thank you, mom." Marley said, seeming to have zoned out at the sight. Marley's mother placed a kiss on her daughter's head, before returning to the kitchen to clean up. Kitty instantly began to dig in, taking dinosaur-sized bites. After swallowing half of a pancake without chewing, Kitty glanced over at Marley to see how she was doing. There were a couple of bites gone from the eggs, but she was currently prodding her syrup-soaked pancake with a contemplative expression. Kitty set her silverware down and reached over to rub her girlfriend's arm.
"How are you doing there, sweetie?" Kitty said, uncertain of how much Marley intended to eat.
"Oh, I'm doing alright. The eggs are actually really good." Marley took a bite of her pancake, and made a point of swallowing loudly. Kitty smiled at her, and returned back to her plate. She's still not eating enough...but at least she's trying. That's what she promised she would do.
At the end of the meal, Kitty had finished two and a half platefuls. She hadn't tasted a home cooked breakfast like that in a long time, and appreciated Mrs. Rose's efforts on her and Marley's behalf. Marley finished about half of her plate; though it wasn't much of a breakfast, it was a start. Marley used to skip breakfast, or throw up whatever she ate of it. At this point, Kitty knew she hadn't thrown up, because she had been with her all morning.
At seven o' clock on the dot, they all piled into Marley's mom's car, and headed to school. Kitty had made a phone call to her coach explaining what happened, and had been immediately excused from practice until she was feeling better. She was still head cheerio as well, and was advised to show up if and when she was ready. Coach Sue may have been brutal during practices, but she cared about her girls. Kitty appreciated the generosity on her Coach's part; for some reason, she hadn't expected Sue to be compassionate about her situation.
Marley's mother parked her car in her usual spot at the employee lot, unlocking the doors to let the girls out. Marley hopped out of her side, and raced to Kitty's side of the car to help her stand.
"M'lady" Marley said, bowing and offering her hand to Kitty. Kitty giggled loudly and accepted her hand gratefully.
"Why thank you, kind madam. But whatever must I offer you for your services?" Kitty smirked, tilting her nose in the air. Marley laughed and cupped the back of Kitty's neck, pulling her in for a kiss. Marley's mother decided it was safe to leave the girls, since they had time before school. She waved silently, and made her way towards the school. Marley and Kitty remained by the car, beginning to get carried away once again. As Kitty's hand began to move up Marley's front, Marley pulled away and gently gripped it.
"We'd better not..." Marley said sadly, beginning to feel her insides tingle. Kitty sighed, nodding in agreement.
"We have about two hours before school starts, though. Why don't we wander a bit?" Kitty suggested, taking Marley's hand. Marley smiled and agreed, allowing Kitty to drag her in her wake. Kitty had never wandered the school this early, except for cheer practice. And, coach wouldn't allow any of them to be late, so they didn't exactly have time to explore.
Kitty found herself leading Marley to the choir room, and was surprised to find it unlocked. Mr. Shue is lucky he hasn't been fired yet...Kitty thought to herself.
"Mr. Shue leaves it unlocked?" Marley asked, seeming to complete Kitty's thought.
"I guess." Kitty shrugged, not really caring. She pulled Marley inside and took a seat in the front row. Marley made to sit next to her, but Kitty held up a hand to stop her. She tilted her head confusedly at her girlfriend.
"Sing for me." Kitty said, smiling up at Marley.
"Oh..." Marley mumbled, looking away.
"What's wrong?" Kitty asked, wondering why Marley was suddenly hesitant; she loved to sing.
"Well...I just wish I could impress you..I don't think I can." Marley stuttered out, twiddling her thumbs.
"What? Marley, you're an amazing singer. I love watching you preform. You know that, don't you? If it makes you uncomfortable, you don't have to...I just wish I could hear you sing every second of every day. It's the most beautiful sound I've ever heard; you're voice." Kitty admitted honestly. Marley absolutely beamed at her girlfriend, letting a tear fall out.
"Of course I'll sing for you." Marley said, obviously touched by Kitty's sentiment. She walked over to the piano and sat down, letting her hands rest on the keys.
"What should I play, though?" she said, tapping her fingers.
"Anything you want. I'm overjoyed just to have you to myself this morning." Kitty said, smiling encouragingly at her. Marley smiled again, and closed her eyes, trying to think of a song.
"I know just what to play." Marley said, allowing her hands to begin.
There's a song that's inside of my soul,
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again;
I'm awake in the infinite cold,
But you sing to me over and over again
So I lay my head back down...
And I lift my hands and pray
To be only yours I pray
To be only yours I know now...
You're my only hope.
Kitty's mouth dropped open in absolute awe; she had never heard her girlfriend sing like this; not in front of anybody, anyway. She couldn't even begin to describe what she was feeling at the moment. Marley's voice was angelic; she had never heard anything like it. She immediately began to cry, letting the tears roll down her cheeks. As if someone were pulling her, she stood and made her way quietly to where Marley was sitting. She sat down next to her girlfriend and turned to face her, watching her every expression. Marley hadn't even noticed she had sat down.
I give you my destiny
I've given you all of me
I'll be your symphony
Singing in all that I am
Kitty couldn't help but join in; she wanted to sing with her perfect girlfriend. She harmonized quietly with Marley. Marley jumped, but never stopped playing. She turned to face her girlfriend, and the girls sang to one another.
So I lay
So I lay my head back down
And I lift
My head
My head and pray
To be only yours
I pray
To be only yours
I pray
To be only yours
I pray
To be only yours, I know now
You're my only
My only hope...
Marley finished, never looking away from Kitty. Kitty couldn't think of anything to express how wonderful she felt at this moment.
"I love you." She said, gently cupping Marley's cheek. Marley was too shocked by Kitty's reaction to smile.
"I love you too." She stated, as it wasn't just a feeling; it was a fact.
Kitty leaned forward and kissed Marley, receiving an enthusiastic response. Marley grabbed Kitty's hips roughly and pulled her closer, allowing their kisses to deepen. Kitty slipped her tongue into Marley's mouth, earning a moan in response. She gently pushed Marley back on to the piano bench and climbed on top of her to straddle her waist. She continued to kiss Marley, holding the back of her neck with one hand. The other hand ran idly up and down Marley's body, eventually reaching the hem of her shirt. She began to push the shirt up Marley's torso, but stopped to pull back and make eye contact with her girlfriend. She raised an eyebrow as if to ask permission and Marley nodded slowly, closing her eyes. Kitty pulled her shirt over her head and dropped it beside them, returning to Marley's lips. Marley unzipped Kitty's jacket and pulled it down her arms, dropping it with her top.
Kitty moved her kisses to Marley's jawline, eventually reaching her pulse point. She bit down gently, causing Marley to gasp loudly. Kitty gently sucked at her neck, leaving red marks covering almost every inch of it. When she was sure she had marked her territory, Kitty moved down to Marley's collar, and began to do the same there. She reached behind Marley's back and unclasped her bra, making eye contact once more for approval. When she received a closed-eye nod, she removed the bra and tossed it on the pile. Kitty eagerly latched on to a rosy bud and began nibbling, forcing Marley's back to arch dramatically. She grabbed the back of Kitty's neck roughly for support, moaning loudly. Kitty grinned smugly, and ground her hips down into Marley's, making them both hiss loudly. When she reached the hem of Marley's pants, she pulled down slowly. Though she didn't expect any disapproval from the action, she wanted to be sure. She finished removing the pants, and moved to straddle Marley's waist again.
Her fingers found their way into Marley's underwear, causing her to moan loudly at the contact.
"Kitty..." Marley gasped out. Kitty leaned forward and began nibbling on Marley's neck again.
"Shhh..." she said against Marley's neck, finally pushing two fingers into her girlfriend. Marley jumped roughly, gasping at the initial feeling. As Kitty established a rhythm, Marley gently rolled into her girlfriend's hand to encourage her. She could feel herself building, absolutely relishing the feeling of Kitty's hand inside her. Kitty continued sucking on her neck, using her free hand to fondle Marley's breast. Marley had wrapped her arms around Kitty's neck, holding on for dear life. Kitty's speed began to pick up, causing Marley to reach her orgasm.
"Kitt-AHH!" Marley screamed Kitty's name, having reached her peak. Kitty watched in wonder at her girlfriend's pained expression of pleasure. She rode out the orgasm with her, gently slowing her speed until Marley came down from her high. After several seconds, Kitty delicately pulled out of Marley, earning a whimper in response. Marley smiled lazily up at her.
"Wow.." Kitty whispered in wonder, stroking Marley's cheek. She leaned down to kiss Marley, who warmly kissed back.
"That was amazing, Kitty." Marley said, smiling adoringly up at her girlfriend. Kitty just continued stroking her girlfriend's cheek. "I love you."
"I love you, too." Kitty said, placing one last kiss on Marley's lips before climbing off of her. Marley began to dress again, giggling once she realized where they still were.
"Wow. We are never going to be able to come to Glee club without laughing after this." Marley said, looking around the room.
"Oh my gosh, you're right." Kitty said, her mouth dropping with sudden realization. They both made eye contact and began to laugh hysterically, linking hands.
"I can officially say we had sex on the piano bench. That is priceless." Kitty said, rubbing the back of Marley's hand with her thumb affectionately.
"If Jake or Ryder knew we had been in here, they'd die." Marley said, still stifling her giggling.
"Yea, I think they'll survive. I'm the luckiest girl ever." Kitty said, beaming at Marley. Marley pulled her in for a hug.
"Not as lucky as me."
Sex! Lots of sex this chapter, kids. I thought the music room would be an incredibly appropriate place to have that scene. I always wanted to see SOME couple on Glee do something dirty in there...you'd think some after-school or after-performance practices would get a bit steamy. I guess not...anyway! R thanks much!
