Maleficent chuckled softly at Aurora's statement.

"Me? Get cleaned up? You're the one who is still covered in mud." Maleficent began, the smile never leaving her lips.

"Then can we at least wash each other?" Aurora asked tentatively. It was as if her aggressive dominance had suddenly waned and she was back to being the shy young lady Maleficent knew her as.

"Of course, but I insist on cleaning you first, I don't want that mud to stain your beautiful golden hair."

Aurora nodded silently and turned around, her back to the faery and Maleficent pulled her down so her head rested on her lap. Using her nails, she delicately scrapped the Queen's scalp and threaded through her silky hair, trying to get every grain of dirt out of her hair. This was done in near silence; thankfully it wasn't an awkward silence. Aurora noticed that Malle had this beautiful flushed afterglow on her cheeks and her body. And her eyes were almost completely golden in color with green flecks instead of the other way around. Her lips had the sexy blood red they always had. Aurora hummed and moaned softly as Malle worked her scalp and hair; it was so relaxing, especially having the hot water flowing around them as well. They would make brief eye contact here and there; when they did they both smiled and visibly blushed. She took to the task of pulling out all of the girls knots and matts in her locks before helping her sit back up. Aurora started scrubbing off what dirt and grime was left on her front while Maleficent massaged her shoulders and back.

"Your turn, Malle." Aurora said happily once she had cleaned sufficiently. Maleficent smiled softly and nodded, Aurora stood up and walked around her.

"Would you like to lay your head on my lap? I can do the same thing you did for me?"

"I would greatly appreciate that. Thank you." Malle carefully began to lie down; she twitched when Aurora's hands came to lightly grip her horns.

"There you go my love, now just relax your wings." After she had laid her down onto Aurora's lap, she hesitantly let her wings fall back into the water completely until they had relaxed completely. It was such an odd feeling having them completely soaked and submerged. The odd feeling of the water flowing through her feathers was similar to what it felt like to have air breeze through them. Only wet and heavy. Aurora was careful with her horns as she cupped the hot water and wet the tops of Maleficent's hair. Her faery godmother moaned when the water flowed over her head and horns and streamed down her neck. Her big beautiful lips parting with a sigh as Aurora started massaging her scalp. Her wings surfaces here and there, like flapping underwater. Aurora did everything Maleficent had done for her, comb through her dark hair, unknotting as much as she could.

"You may sit up now." Aurora permitted, and Maleficent got up, minding her horns.

"Thank you, Aurora. That was wonderful. Are you ready to dry off?" The Queen nodded and the women rose up, supporting each other since they were rather wobbly from the hot water. A torrent of water fell from Maleficent's wings, and they sagged a little more than usual. And it was like Malle was slightly struggling with the added water weight.

"I'm sorry, godmother. I didn't think getting your wings wet would bring you this much discomfort." Aurora held Maleficent's hand as they waded through the water and onto the rocky shoreline.

"Don't apologize; it was time they themselves got a bath. So thank you for helping me get them clean."

They got up onto a large boulder where the sun seemed to be heating the most. Maleficent's robes were in a pile, sitting there.

"I usually sunbathe until I am dry enough. You can wear my robes, Beastie."

"But then you have nothing to wear!"

Maleficent smiled at Aurora's concern. It was endearing.

"It's alright my dear. I don't want any eyes looking at your body. It's bad enough that mongrel was probably watching us. So please, get dressed my love.

"Yes, godmother." Aurora said quietly and she bent over to pick up the robes and while she was bent over, Maleficent stepped closer and lightly patted Aurora's rump. Making the young woman squeak and whine at the contact. She instantly snapped up with the robes in hand, and gave Maleficent a smirk. The faery did the same in return as she took the robe from Aurora and helped her slip it on. It seemed finer than silk and impossibly soft against her damp skin. It was much longer on Aurora, and a little bigger. There were two long slits on the back for Maleficent's wings. Malle stepped a ways away and spread her wings out all the way, the sun shining through her damp wings. She started to beat them as hard she could, even becoming airborne. The water flew from her great wings. In all honesty it was rather silly to see her struggling to dry herself, but she also felt sorry for her godmother. Even in her current situation she was still majestic and beautiful. Water stained the boulder below them, turning it dark grey. Aurora had sat down, leaning back, enjoying the heat from the high sun. After about ten or fifteen minutes of Malle trying to dry her wings off at much as she could, she finally landed close to her Queen. They looked brilliant. The dark brown and silver was shining in the sun. She was shocked that her wings were that dirty. They were mostly dry; she just needed to sun herself more. Aurora had wrung out her hair and had laid out on the warm rock. The robe was parted slightly so a beautiful line of her skin from her chest to her crotch was visible. The Queen had dozed off a little. Maleficent carefully sat down next to her and pulled her close. She kissed Aurora's forehead, down to her nose, and then her pink lips. And even though her eyes had been closed, she kissed Malle back, her hand coming up to cup her high cheekbone. Her eyes opened and she smiled at Maleficent, who smiled back.

"I love you."

"I love you too, Beastie.

Maleficent spread her wings out and laid them down on the warm rock, Aurora cuddled up next to her. Resting her head on Malle's stomach with her arms wrapped around her waist. Malle fingered through the younger woman's hair, humming something soft, like a lullaby. The sun felt glorious on Aurora's skin, she had never sun bathed before, let alone sun bathed naked. Let alone sun bathed naked with another naked woman. Aurora started to listen closer to Maleficent's humming; it was soft and relaxing.

"That's beautiful, Malle. Where did you learn that song?"

"Mmm…my mother would sing it to me; most of the time she would hum it, just like I am now. The song is called 'Once Upon A Dream'. She would put me to sleep with this song almost every evening when I was a child. It's…the only song I know."

"Can you sing it for me?" Aurora asked softly, but Maleficent answered back with a decisive,

"No."

"Pleeeeease, Malle? I want to hear you sing for me. Please, please, please? I love your voice just as you speak normally, I can only dream about how angelic you sound singing! Oh please, godmother?" Aurora begged like she used to, it was more cute than annoying. Just hearing the difference in pitch as her voice went a little higher into this almost child-like voice. The way a child begs for a sweet or to be picked up. Even hearing her darling little Aurora beg, couldn't keep her from saying no. So, she sighed, but complied.

"I know you; I walked with you once upon a dream. I know you, that look in your eyes is so familiar a gleam. And I know it's true that visions are seldom all they seem. But if I know you, I know what you'll do. You'll love me at once, the way you did once upon a dream. But if I know you, I know what you'll do. You'll love me at once. The way you did once upon a dream." When Maleficent had finished singing, she propped herself up on her elbow to look down at Aurora. She had turned over on her stomach, resting her head on crossed arms in front of her; and she had the biggest smile on her face. The kind of smile the makes the heart flutter and forces you to even smile on your dullest day.

"What?"

"You have the most beautiful voice I had ever heard." Aurora finally said, her voice was laced with wonder and adoration, you could even see it in her sapphire eyes.

"Tch. No I don't. But thank you for trying to boost my ego." That's when Aurora grabbed Maleficent's thigh and started to get on top of her.

"Aurora, what are you-?" Instantly the Queen's lips captured the faery's, her hand tangled her hair; pulling Maleficent closer into the kiss. Their lips clashed over and over again until they were breathless. When they were able to make eye contact, their eyes radiated with excitement and desire. Aurora cupped Malle's cheeks in her hands and started nuzzling her face and forehead and hair; and even placed kisses onto her horns.

"I would never lie to you, Maleficent. You have a beautiful voice. You have beautiful skin, beautiful eyes, beautiful wings, beautiful horns, and a beautiful body. You are perfect to me. Your Beastie says you are perfect. You mean so much to me, Maleficent. More than you can possibly fathom. You are perfect. And I love you, I will always love you. I promise that my feelings for you will never change." Instantly Maleficent hugged Aurora tight to her, burying her face in the crook of the Queen's neck and let out a soft whimper. Maleficent was crying.

"Oh please Malle, I didn't mean to make you cry! I'm so sorry!" Maleficent pulled back after a second and looked into her ladyships eyes, while tears fell from her own.

"Never apologize for doing something that you felt was right." Malle said softly, it made Aurora smile. The faery pulled Aurora back and their kiss began anew. Maleficent wrapped her wings around them. The heat they absorbed from the sun resonated around the women as their kiss deepened. Aurora thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of having Maleficent under her, completely under her control. Aurora's hand was still tangled in Malle's hair.

"Mine." She almost whispered to the faery, and Maleficent laughed darkly, as her own hand coming up to grip Aurora's hair.

"Mine." She growled into the Queen's ear.
