CHAPTER THREE
A/N Just a little note there will be some smutty sexy times in this chapter. Also a bit of angst. The following chapters will also have bits of smut laced around, while this chapter has quite a bit of descriptive sexy times the next few will have it where it is left up to your imagination as I wanted to try something different. So I would appreciate if you could review me on those chapters, so I know whether it works or not. Once again thank you for taking the time to read this story. I know it's something different to what has been out there, but I wanted to do something that could actually happen. You never know what goes on behind closed doors!
Cosima woke up early, which was unlike her. Normally she would sleep until late afternoon. It must have been that she was called up early yesterday to go to Dyad to sit in on the interviews. Picking her phone up from her bedside table Cosima scrolled through the messages she had exchanged with Delphine. Smiling broadly to herself she let her finger rest above the phone icon; she couldn't resist and tapped it. Within seconds the phone started ringing on the other end.
"Allo!" A groggy voice answered on the other end.
"Hey Delphine did I wake you?" Cosima asked innocently knowing full well that she had.
"I was kind of waking up." Came the reply.
"Well kind of waking up means you were awake, but just to let you know, you just awake voice is damn sexy, I could listen to that all day every day." She giggled teasing Delphine.
"Oh No! I sound horrible!" Delphine squealed down the phone.
"Never!" Cosima soothed. "Did you sleep well? I did after I suffered a million and one questions about you from Sarah and Cal."
"I think I had the best night's sleep in a long time. I also dreamt about you." Delphine admitted.
"Oh you dreamt about me eh? Good or bad? Sexy or boring? Come on you can't tell me you had dreams about me then not give me details. "Cosima pressed.
"They were very nice dreams and that is all the information that you will be getting from me."
Cosima could tell that Delphine was smiling on the other end of the phone.
"OK, now Delphine how about if I brought our little date forward a few hours? I don't think I could wait until tonight so how about we make it a date day? I mean it's alright if you don't want to you know. It's just like I really, really, REALLY want to see you again and sooner rather than later." Cosima admitted.
"Have you been drinking?" Delphine joked. "Because it is only 9am!" A small giggle coming out.
"Hey cheeky, I think you should be the brat for that comment." Cosima laughed freely. "In all seriousness though. I want to see you soon. You're all that's been on my mind since the moment I left you place last night. What magic have you cast over me Delphine. I just can't get enough. If this is what I am like with just talking to you, imagine what I would be like once we kiss and you know?"
"Cosima you are very cheeky, but that's why I like you. Also I would also like to see you today…."
"You would? Wow oh OK I wasn't expecting that!" Cosima almost shouted with excitement.
"So, what would you like to do today Cosima?" Delphine asked.
"So how much of London have you actually seen since you have been here?" Cosima asked.
"Hmm let me think, not much in all honesty. There are so many places I have wanted to go to, but with work I found it difficult to go to them." Delphine admitted reluctantly.
"OK that's cool, we can do a few things today, and I will put my thinking cap on. So what time shall we meet? Would you like me to come to yours or do you want to come to mine. I'm easy it doesn't bother me?"
"OK well you came to mine yesterday so how about I come to yours today? I would love to see where the great seductress Cosima lives."
"The great seductress eh? You aint seen nothing yet sweetheart! "Cosima teased. She heard Delphine's breath hitch on the other end of the phone. "You OK babe?"
Delphine was blushing profusely on the other end of the phone but she wasn't about to let Cosima know that, that simple statement had sent her insides on a rollercoaster.
"Yeah I'm good just stubbed my toe getting out of bed. I told you last night I am so clumsy."
"Delphine you can't hurt yourself when I'm not there because I won't be able to kiss it better for you then!" Cosima feigned hurt.
"Cosima you are incorrigible!" Delphine exclaimed.
"Only with you babe."
Cosima looked at the time. "Listen we best go and get ready. I will text you my address and you can get here for about 1. That gives me plenty of time to get ready. I can't promise to be ready because as I said to you last night. I'm nearly always late."
"I will get there for 1pm if you are not ready it is no big deal I can wait. Now go and start getting ready so you are not late!" Delphine said with a smile in her voice.
"I would go but I am hypnotised by your voice. I am under your spell." Cosima said.
"GO NOW! I will be there for 1. Don't forget to send your address."
"Yes oh masterful one. Your wish is my command. Until 1. Adieu."
"Adieu, Cosima."
Cosima hung up the call and flung herself on the sofa. A big smile playing on all her features. 'How the hell did I get so lucky' she thought.
Without thinking she just got up herself up and made her way into the bathroom. She had three hours to get ready, she could do it, and she could be showered and dressed in that time. She wouldn't be late at all.
Delphine hung up the phone. She smiled to herself. The eagerness of Cosima delighted her. She had never had someone pursue her so much. It was flattering. The only thing to worry about was what she was going to wear. The ring of her phone alerted her to a message.
C: Hey, I know I have only just got off the phone to you but I wanted to say morning again x
D: Morning! So are you sending me your address?x
C: Well to be honest I have just booked a taxi to pick you up. It will be at yours for half twelve x
D: Hold on I thought you said we were meeting at one!?X
C: Well I thought we won't know how bad the lunchtime rush will be so I have accommodated that into the journey time. See I am your super smart date for today x
D: Super smart you maybe but how romantic are you?x
C: May be you will find out today?X
D: Come on Cosima don't leave me hanging…..x
C: Let's just say that today is going to blow your mind x
D: now I am intrigued and worried. So I best go and get ready now I have half an hour less than I thought!x
C: You could turn up at mine right now in your PJ's and I would still think you were gorgeous x
D: Now you are telling lies.
C: Never! You are the most beautiful woman ever and I cannot believe that in just over 2 hours I am going on a date with you! I am so lucky x
D: I am the lucky one Cosima for meeting you x
C: OK stop making me get a big head! We both need to get ready. Will see you soon. Text me when you're on your way x
D: OK I will. See you soon x
C: See you soon
Delphine put her phone down and made her way to the bathroom where she put the shower on before going to the basin to brush her teeth, and wash her face. Once she had done that she took off her PJ's and stepped into the large shower. Letting the water cascade all over her. Condensation covering the glass. Delphine imagined Cosima looking at her through the mist. Reaching out to touch her. Taking a nipple between her fingers she could sense Cosima there.
The water covered Delphine's body like a thousand kisses. Her free hand slowly making the descent to between her legs. Her lips swollen with desire, she quickly found the tight electrified bundle of nerves and started to tease herself, all the while imaging Cosima was the one doing it. As the build up to her orgasm began, Delphine began to knead her tits, pushing her fingers inside, using her palm to stimulate her clit. Legs becoming like jelly the faster she moved within herself. Then just as her orgasm took hold her legs buckled, and she fell to the floor. Her body spasming until the final moan and intense feeling left her body. Delphine sighed as she picked herself up to shower herself.
"Cosima what the hell are you doing to me?" She whispered to herself. Little did she know that Cosima was doing exactly the same thing in her bed the other side of town.
When Cosima had come down from her high she rushed about getting ready. She had already decided that she was going to wear the multi-coloured tie die effect dress with some killer heels. The dress was long enough to be decent but short enough to set minds running. She wanted Delphine to have that wow moment when she saw her, but she had decided that Delphine would more than likely get the wow from her first.
She still couldn't believe that everything that was happening was real; the connection between them was amazing. She never imagined that the love at first sight thing was an actual thing that happened. Now she was starting to believe it. All Cosima wanted was to be near Delphine. The fact that she was the first thing she thought of when she had woken up that morning. In the back of her mind she was doubting everything. She knew she had to tell Cosima everything, but if Delphine knew everything then things would definitely change between them.
"Delphine why couldn't we have met before the other day!" She said to the empty room. "All I want is to be happy. Maybe she won't mind, but what if she does how will I cope?" Cosima's anxieties start to come to the surface and she finds herself in the throes of a panic attack. She was finding it hard to breath, her head was spinning. Everything was closing in around her. All she wanted was Delphine but her phone wasn't near her. She was scared to move in case she fell over. Trying to take deep breaths she started to hyperventilate. Everything went dark….
Delphine was stood outside waiting for the taxi, butterflies in her stomach, but something was playing on her mind. She hadn't heard from Cosima since earlier that morning, she thought she may have had a text or something. Taking her phone out of her bag she found cosima's texts and started to compose a new one.
D: Hey, just waiting on the taxi now, hope everything is OK and you're not running late x
The taxi pulled up, he signalled for her. Delphine walked towards the car. Still nothing had come back from Cosima. She messaged again.
D: Just getting in the car, I will be with you soon. I hope everything is OK x
She thought that maybe something had happened and that was why she couldn't message back, maybe she had dropped her phone. There was probably the simplest explanation as to why she wasn't answering.
Putting the phone back in her bag Delphine sat back and began to relax into the journey. Taking in the various sights as they made their way through London on a typical summer's day. It was warm without being too warm and the sun was hazy but to Delphine it was just perfect. She thought to herself that the day would be perfect in every way too.
About 15 minutes into the journey Delphine's phone rang. COS flashing on the screen.
"HeyCosima is everything alright? I am on my way now. I should be with you soon."
"Delphine "Came the whispered voice the other end of the phone.
"Cosima is everything OK please talk to me." Delphine started to sound scared.
"Walk straight in when you get to mine, I am in the room to the right of the door when you come in." Cosima said slowly taking care with each word.
"What's happened?"
"I will tell you when you get here; you should be just a few minutes away now."
"Cosima?"
"I am OK, just a bit wiped out. Just walk right in. I'm going to go." Cosima hung up the phone.
Delphine put the phone back in her pocket. The call was cryptic and she couldn't help but worry.
Cosima had come around in the middle of her bedroom. Her head was throbbing. This was probably one of the worst anxiety attacks she had had in a long time. Taking her time she had got up and washed her face, made her way back to the bedroom and looked for her phone. Walking slowly she had made her way to the hallway; she checked the time and saw that she had messages from Delphine. She could have replied but she wanted to speak to her. Delphine's voice soothed her, made her feel relaxed.
After speaking to Delphine and ensuring the door would be open for Delphine, Cosima made her way to the living room where she fell onto the sofa. She was exhausted she dozed a little, not hearing when Delphine came into her home.
"Cosima are you here?" Delphine called out.
Cosima was just about awake but replied sleepily "In here!"
Delphine followed where the small voice came from and found Cosima lying on the sofa. Eyes half open, but a smile playing on her face.
"Oh Cosima what happened?" Concern filling the voice.
"I had an anxiety attack. I do suffer with them often." Cosima started to explain.
Delphine didn't let her finish before taking her up in a big hug. Holding her for what seemed like hours in what was only minutes.
Cosima liked being held like this, it made her feel safe. "Thank you"
"For what?" Delphine asked confused.
"For not running when you saw me like this, I must look horrible." Cosima answered.
"Don't be stupid Cosima why would I run away? That is not my style."
"Why would you want to be lumbered with someone like me though? I am a total fuck up!"
"Shhhhh, no you're not! You are someone wonderful. Someone I want to know. Hell even someone I would love to be kissing right now. Don't ever put yourself down!" Delphine said as she tenderly stroked Cosima's head, tangling her fingers in the dreads.
Delphine leant down and gently kissed Cosima's forehead.
"Do you mind if we stay in today, I know I had made plans for us but I don't feel up to it now?" Cosima asked softly.
"Of course not, I am happy to do whatever you want to do." Delphine smiled at the woman lying across her lap. "I do think you need to go and put something more than what you are currently wearing on." Delphine blushed.
Cosima took Delphine's hand and put it on her chest. "Do you feel that?"
Cosima nodded all words gone from her brain.
"That is how my heart has been beating since I met you. I don't care if I am in just my underwear, or fully dressed. I just want you to know how you are making me feel. I can't stop it; I want to feel this way."
Suddenly Delphine leant down and softly kissed Cosima. It was as if she was testing the water, making sure it was wanted. Cosima responded straight away. Opening her mouth letting her tongue tease its way along Delphine's lips. Delphine let out a little sigh, and then broke away from the kiss. Cosima sat up.
"Is everything alright?" Cosima whispered.
Delphine nodded. She then took Cosima's hand and placed it on her chest.
"Your heart is not the only one racing now." She said as she smiled at the other woman.
Cosima's breath hitched at the feeling of the pulsating heart under her hand, she leant towards Delphine and kissed her again. This time the kisses were hungry kisses, letting Delphine know just how much she wanted her.
Cosima's tongue begged for entry pushing through Delphine's lips, after a few seconds it was granted, both tongues moving against each other, exploring the new mouth it had entered.
Hands started to move up and down backs, pulling heads closer together, this time Cosima broke away from the kiss. Looking in Delphine's eyes she asked softly "Are you sure?"
Delphine didn't reply with words, she took Cosima's hand and kissed it before again placing it on her chest and nodding. They both lay like that for a while, neither one having the confidence to carry on. Cosima traced a line down Delphine's arm making the hairs stand up. Delphine let out a contented sigh before turning to face Cosima.
"What is happening here?" Delphine asked gently.
"Well, I thought that would be obvious. We are falling for each other." Cosima replied with certainty.
"Now that I know, I knew that from the moment I laid eyes on you. I mean with you what is happening? Talk to me."
"Delphine, I suffer from anxiety. More so, due to my illness. I do not want your pity. I am still leading a healthy and normal life. I do not want you to treat me any differently than when you first saw me. Yeah I may get sicker; well I know I will get sicker. So I am giving you this chance to get out whilst you still can. Whilst it won't hurt as much as it may do in 6 months' time. I want you to know I wouldn't hate you if you did walk…."
"I'm not going anywhere, to me it doesn't matter if you were sick or not, I just want to be with you!" Delphine said with confidence, she then pulled Cosima close and they kissed again. Kissed with confidence as if they had been together years not days.
Cosima fiddled with the hem of Delphine's shirt, tracing the small amount of skin that had been exposed. She felt Delphine's sharp intake of breath as she traced her fingers across her abdomen, slowly moving her head down she kissed the exposed skin. Whispering against Delphine's skin she said "do you want me to stop?"
"Never!" Came the hoarse reply from the other woman.
Cosima exposed some more of Delphine's stomach, kissing each freckle, mole and beauty spot as it came into sight, each time Delphine's body moved pushing into the kiss. Cosima kissed her way up to Delphine's chest. She noticed the small scar above the right breast and paused, tracing her finger across it.
"How did you get this?" She asked softly.
"I was in an accident about 5 years ago; I came off my bicycle and went over the handlebars. A car had turned suddenly; my brake on the bar went into my chest. Broke one of my ribs too. I have never been on a bicycle since then. I have been too scared, so I am scarred emotionally and physically."
"Aww my poor baby." Cosima said quietly as she ducked her head to gently kiss the puckered skin.
"I am so self-conscious about my body now because of it." Delphine sighed.
"You are beautiful and the scars just make you even more so." Cosima brought Delphine's lips to her own and gently kissed her again.
"I am so lucky" Delphine whispered into Cosima's mouth.
Cosima kissed her hungrily. This time showing no fear, working her hands under Delphine's shirt, pulling it over her shoulders to expose herself more.
Delphine's hands were doing the same except instead of taking off a top she was removing Cosima's bra. She gasped as she felt the hard nipples against her own bare skin. Cosima smiled into their kiss. She took Delphine's hand and placed it on the bare flesh. Placing her own hand over the top, almost as a reassuring gesture to let Delphine know it was what she wanted. Delphine gently kneaded the breast, breaking away from the hungry kisses and moving her mouth down. Taking the nipple in her mouth she slowly and gently sucked and teased at it. Hearing Cosima's moans driving her forward.
Cosima's hands were in Delphine's hair now, tugging at it as the intensity of the sucking built up inside her. Suddenly Delphine stopped, she then began to use her tongue to make her way to the other breast and repeat the process. Cosima's head couldn't comprehend what was going on properly. It was like she was in a dream, she had dreamt about this the previous night and it was actually happening!
"Fuck Delphine is this really happening!" Gasped the smaller woman.
The nip of Delphine's teeth the reply.
"Shit Delphine….." was all that came out of Cosima's mouth before Delphine moved lower. A slight sheen of sweat forming over Cosima's body as Delphine took control. Skilled hands finding all the right places to tease and torment Cosima at the same time.
Delphine smiled at the hips thrusting towards her as she moved her mouth lower still. Using her teeth she started to pull down the boxers Cosima wore. A long moan escaped from Cosima as Delphine took her time in removing the obstacle in her path. Finally the boxers were gone and Cosima was on the sofa, naked as the day she was born, Delphine's eyes hungrily took in the sight before her. She licked her lips slowly before returning to kiss Cosima. Not the soft kisses of earlier but the hungry, lust filled kisses that let the other know your exact intentions.
Delphine kissed Cosima fiercely bruising both their lips. Her hungry mouth making its way to her neck. Gently sucking at first before getting harder. Cosima moaning at the intensity of everything. Delphine stopped to admire the love bite that she had left.
"Now everyone will know that you are taken. That you are mine!" She whispered so quietly Cosima only just heard her.
"I was yours the moment you looked my way." Cosima replied.
A/N: Sorry this chapter had to be in two parts because otherwise it would be sooo long and I don't want to give you everything at once. He he
