Chapter 10-Ring

Cosima rolled in to the bedroom, her lap full of bags. She'd convinced her father to let her get into the bedroom herself, promising to take a nap. Shopping had been exhausting, but they'd finally found her a dress and gotten Charlotte everything she would need for school Monday, even stopping by the post office to pick up the textbooks that had come in the mail.

She didn't expect to see Delphine fast asleep in bed. She looked at the clock: it was only 3pm. She put the contents of her bags away quietly and then rolled over to Delphine's side of the bed. She smiled, seeing the peace on her fiancée's face as she slept.

Cosima drank in the sight, watching as each blonde ringlet fell perfectly on Delphine's head. She watched the gentle rise and fall of this woman's body with each breath in absolute awe. She reached out, gently brushing back the blonde curls with a soft hand. Her fingers trailed down to outline Delphine's cheeks and hold her face gently.

The brunette smiled, moving over to her side of the bed. Cosima braced herself on the bed and used everything she had to pull herself onto the soft, plush mattress. She sighed, lying behind Delphine. The clone made sure to untangle her oxygen line from the chair as she rolled on to her side, spooning her fiancée from behind.

Delphine felt the heat spread across her tummy as the familiar touch snaked over it. She instantly smiled and turned on her back.

The dreaded leaned down, connecting her lips to those of the blonde woman beneath her. It was a sleepy, lazy kiss that brought wafts of beer to her sense of smell, but soothed with the soft caress of lips.

"Allo" Delphine whispered as she pulled away, eyes still closed.

"I didn't mean to wake you. Was gonna curl up for a nap" Cosima told her, a free hand now running through her fiancée's curls as she kissed her cheek.

Delphine's lips curved up in to a bright smile as she wrapped her arms around Cosima, allowing the girl to get settled on her chest.

The young scientist allowed herself to get comfortable, nuzzling in to Delphine's shoulder, lips pressing to her long, exposed neck softly before she settled completely.

"Been drinking?" Cosima asked.

Delphine nodded "Cal and I had more than a few."

"Good. You have fun?" she asked.

Another nod, followed by a smile "I feel a lot better."

"Even better" Cosima told her, reaching up Delphine's shirt to gently rub small circles on the blonde's bare belly. "How's the basement coming?"

"Cal's getting us a team to do it. Wedding gift. It will be done by 5pm tomorrow. Equipment is coming in Sunday. We will implant Monday. I have already texted Scott."

"Okay, but right now, we nap" Cosima told her.

Delphine rubbed her arm and nodded. "You feeling okay?" the French woman told her.

The dreaded woman let out a sigh as she nodded "Yeah. Let's just sleep."

Delphine pulled the blankets up around Cosima's shoulders a little snugger, making sure she was well covered before she drifted off to sleep.

Charlotte walked in a few hours later, hoping up and crawling in to bed with them. She sat there, staring at them, waiting for them to notice her. When they didn't she leaned in and kissed each of their foreheads. Both sets of eyes fluttered open.

Cosima's first sight was on her daughter. She smiled and reached for the girl, pulling her down to snuggle.

"No, Mummy. Dinner's ready. It's time to get up" Charlotte told her.

Even in her haze, the brunette respected her daughter's no and let go, curling back in to her partner

"Five more minutes" she grumbled.

Delphine patted her chest, waving the young girl over, her eyes still closed.

"Okay, but only five. I'm hungry and I want to show you some of the new rocks I found" Charlotte told them.

"Cinq minutes" Delphine re-iterated.

The girl curled in to her maman, placing a hand on mummy's shoulder as she enjoyed lying in their company for a while.

A few minutes later, there's a knock at the door and Helm leaned in "What is this? I send you to wake them up and you're joining the snuggle pile?" he chastises his granddaughter.

"Maman's comfy" Charlotte responds.

"True that, kid" Cosima grumbles.

Delphine laughs, feeling the lightness her breakdown had lent her for the time being. It had felt so good to let everything out. She felt cleansed.

Cosima too felt different after that nap. Had it been the nap though? Or had it been the slap in the ass her father had given her earlier? She didn't care. It was nice to finally feel even slightly free from the confines she'd created around herself and her illness. She was so comfy in Delphine's embrace. But she knew there were some things that she'd have to talk to the blonde about. Some things still weren't quite sitting right with her.

"Come on, time to get up. Dinner's getting cold" he told them.

Charlotte sighed and got up first "Fine."

Helm walked over to his daughter, going to pick her up. Cosima allowed herself to be pulled out of bed. The blonde stretched as she sat up. Her head was pounding from the beer, but it was a minor price to pay. She swung herself out of bed and grabbed Cosima's chair, carrying it downstairs behind the large German man who was carrying the smaller woman.

"Maman, I think I dropped the coolest rock between the couch cushions earlier. Can you help me?" Charlotte called from the living room.

Helm positioned Cosima in the chair and pulled the brakes off as Delphine turned to her daughter.

"Umm, Oui. After dinner, darling" Delphine answered.

"Go ahead. It'll take me a minute to pull it out of the oven anyhow" Helm told her before he winked at his daughter.

Delphine saw the smile spread on Cosima's face and became instantly suspicious. What were they having for dinner? She ignored the two for now and headed to the living room, rolling up her sleeves.

"It fell between these two cushions" Charlotte told her. "I was showing Opa and I just dropped it."

"Okay Charlotte, attendez un moment" she told her kid, reaching between the cushion. She felt around the inside of the couch until her hand hit something cold and smooth "I think I've got it."

Charlotte giggled, unexpectedly excited.

Delphine pulled her arm out and held up the…ring?

Her jaw hung open as she put two and two together. It was a gorgeous diamond encrusted engagement ring. She turned it over, watching the gold band and the diamonds sparkle in the lighting. She felt the happiest tears she'd felt in a long time roll down her face and a warm hand on her back.

"I knew I put that somewhere" Cosima joked.

Charlotte walked over to her Opa, looking up at him as he congratulated her on a job well done.

"Cosima, it is…" Delphine started, turning to look at her fiancée. "It is perfect."

"It helps having a geologist in the family; who also happens to be the perfect wingman" Cosima told her.

Delphine sat on the couch, turning completely to face the love of her life. She leaned in, kissing Cosima so deeply that everything fell away for a moment. Her heart was so light and airy and just happy. She was going to get to marry Cosima. She wrapped both arms around the smaller woman's neck, running her hands up in between the dreads, holding the brunette's head closer as she moved her lips over those of the love of her life.

Cosima broke the kiss "So you like it?"

Delphine nodded, handing the ring to Cosima as she outstretched her hand, allowing her partner to put it on her finger.

Cosima gently pushed the ring on to the long, slender finger.

"It fits perfectly!" Delphine exclaimed.

"Oh come on, I wouldn't be a very good lesbian if I didn't know how big your fingers were" Cosima told her.

Delphine chuckled and kissed her again before getting up and going over to her daughter, dropping to a knee and pulling her in to a hug. "Petit rétif! You had me fooled" she mockingly scolded.

"Congratulations, maman" Charlotte told her, squeezing her back.

Delphine let go and stood to give Helm a hug "Thank you for everything."

He pulled her in to a bear hug "My pleasure! And…I am taking Charlotte out for some pizza and arcade games tonight. Not a peep out of either of you. You need some time to celebrate. Dinner's on the table."

Cosima smiled "Thanks, Papa." It is followed immediately by a rough cough and a smear of blood.

Delphine looks at her, concerned. The coughing continues. The doctor grabbed a Kleenex from the box on the end table and brought it over, holding it in front of her mouth.

Cosima took the tissue and moved away from Delphine's hand. She doesn't need to be blotted like a 2 year old. Shooting her lover a glance, she watched Delphine back off. The coughing finally stopped and she wiped the blood from her face.

"Charlotte, you ready to go?" Opa asked.

Charlotte nods, but turned to her mother "Mummy, are you okay?"

The older clone smiled and nodded "Yup. I'm fine. Just a cough."

The young girl accepts the answer, looking up at her maman, knowing that if maman's here, mummy will be okay. Once Maman nods at her, she goes to the door and starts putting her shoes on.

"Hey, you be good for Opa, okay mom petit?" Delphine calls out, running a hand through her blonde curls.

"I will. Have fun having sex" Charlotte called back before heading out the door.

Helm let out a belly laugh as he followed his granddaughter out the door.

The door shut and Delphine turned to Cosima "Dinner?" she asked.

The brunette nodded and started to wheel herself to the kitchen. Delphine moved to take hold of the chair, but the clone whipped around in a flash of dreads.

"I've got this" Cosima told her.

Delphine backed off, heading over to the table where a beautiful meal was laid out. She took a seat, pouring herself a glass of wine. Cosima wheeled up to the table and reached for the bottle to pour her own. The blonde's hand instantly shot out and closed around the strong fingers holding the barrel.

"Do you think that is wise?" Delphine asked.

Cosima's eyes closed as she took a breath, doing her best not to snap "Yes. And I would appreciate it if you could stop mothering me. I'm fine right now. I've got my oxygen in, I'm in the chair, I've taken all of my meds. Just let me enjoy my evening."

Delphine looked at her, fighting the internal struggle to tell her what to do. The blonde slowly pulled her hand away from the bottle. She softened slightly "I simply think that you should take it easy"

Cosima poured her glass of wine "I'm not dead yet" she whispered under her breath.

Delphine set down her glass and raised her eyebrows at the sick clone "Excusez-moi?"

The brunette's eyes closed and she grit her teeth "I said: I'm not dead yet" she spoke louder, taking a sip of her wine.

Delphine threw her arms up, staring at Cosima "What do you mean? Of course you are not. Why would you say that?"

"Because it feels like it. Delphine, you don't look at me anymore. You don't kiss me or touch me like you used to. That kiss after the ring has been the only genuine one we've exchanged since we've had a timeline. The rest is just all in passing. Like you're walking right through me" Cosima explained, the words full of hurt. She shook her head and took another sip from her wine, still not making eye contact with her fiancée. "Until today, I felt so gross and ugly. Like this illness had taken me over completely; a shadow of who I was before. And if it's like that, Delphine, then please don't marry me. If you don't see me as anything more than a memory, don't marry me. If all you're going to be is my doctor and caretaker, I don't want to call you my wife. I'm tired of being a ghost. I feel invisible to you and it hurts. "

"Cosima…" Delphine whispered as she felt the pain radiating off of her partner. Her face went through the myriad of emotions she was feeling. Had she really done that? She thought back to the last week.

She had.

She swallowed hard.

She didn't know when she stopped seeing Cosima as Cosima, and instead started seeing her as a patient, but it had happened. When had she stopped checking this gorgeous woman out? When had she stopped fantasizing about the way she smelled? The way she felt wrapped around her fingers? The way she tasted?

She wasn't sure, but she knew that it had happened.

Delphine let her eyes trace Cosima. She allowed herself to open up; tried her best to forget the illness, the chair. In all of her need to take care of her partner, she'd forgotten about her emotions; forgotten that those needed to be taken care of as well.

The blonde stood up and walked around the table, gripping the back of Cosima's neck hard and pulling her in to a deeply bruising kiss. She climbed into her lap, letting her knees rest on either side of the smaller woman's thighs, mounting her in the chair.

Delphine's tongue came out of her mouth to gently run over the lips that she had kissed so hard, soothing them as she held the brunette's head firmly in her hands.

Cosima snaked her hands up Delphine's back, pressing her close. She felt so alive, so much more present than she had lately. She felt sexy and wanted.

Delphine slowly pulled away, looking down at her partner from her position perched above.

"I did not know that we had gotten lost. I never want you to feel unloved or invisible. I will not let it happen again. Je t'aime Cosima, illness, chair, cannula" she whispered, her fingers lightly brushing across the plastic tubing. "I love all of you. I got so wrapped up in myself and I do not know where I turned, but I am here now, mon amour. And I am so sorry that I ever made you feel like you were less than everything I have ever wanted…" Delphine continued, placing her forehead against the brunette's as she played with the dreads. "…because you are."

Cosima smiled, staring up in to Delphine's eyes. As the woman spoke, she saw them soften completely; she saw them open up and drink in all of her; she saw them well up, clear, and then pierce in to her; and she saw them fill with love. She could hear the words Delphine spoke to her, but they were washed out by the tidal waves her eyes were communicating in this moment.

"I've missed you so much" Cosima whispered up to her partner.

Delphine frowned and smoothed the skin on her cheek with the softest touch, leaning down and leaving an equally soft kiss on the young scientist's lips.

"Well I'm here now. All of me" Delphine replied.

Cosima felt herself blush and nod, pulling Delphine in to a tight hug. She sighed against the softness of her fiancée's body. She breathed deeply, inhaling from the tank as she enjoyed the moment.

Cosima slowly leaned back to look at Delphine "So, dinner? You'll need the energy. I plan on destressing you tonight."

Delphine was about to protest, claiming that Cosima was sick, but she didn't. Instead, she smiled and nodded, allowing those words to sneak up her thighs and gently tickle her clit.

"Well then, we should both eat" Delphine told her.

Cosima leaned up and gave her another tender kiss before slapping her ass, indicating for Delphine to get out of the chair.

Delphine laughed and dismounted "Ooo, I liked that."

"Of course you did, you naughty doctor" Cosima teased, wheeling herself back to the table and taking hold of her wine glass.

There is was: that happiness she had felt not so very long ago.

Delphine took a seat, winking across the table at Cosima. Her Cosima.

"So how great is it, bring parents?" Cosima asked, spearing some asparagus on her fork and putting it in her mouth.

Delphine sat back in her chair and sipped her wine "So great!"

"I love that little girl so much. She's so excited for school Monday" the brunette noted.

The blonde doctor nodded, cutting a piece of her meat. "Honestly, I am excited as well. I am looking forward to teaching" she told her partner.

"God those are some lucky kids. I wonder how many will have crushes on you? Mme Cormier, the hot French teacher" Cosima teased, taking another bite of her dinner.

"Well at least I will be pregnant soon. Not many crushes will last when I am the size of a truck" Delphine joked.

Cosima shook her head, smiling "I can't wait. You're gonna be so fucking gorgeous."

"Cal said the same thing" Delphine told her, scrunching her nose as she took a sip of wine.

"You guys are really buddying up, huh?" Cosima asked.

"It's nice to have a friend. I have not had one in a very long time" she told her partner.

Cosima nodded "I 'm glad you've got that."

Delphine smiled and chuckled as she remembered something "Do you remember that night in Iceland when he chased you around with an icicle?" she asked.

Cosima laughed, coughing slightly but managed to catch her breath "I warned him I was gonna do it. He just kept chasing me."

Delphine laughed harder tossing her head back as she slapped the table "He ran right at you and you just opened the door."

"Whamo! Face first in three feet of snow. That'll teach him" Cosima smiled as she grabbed her wine glass and sat back in her chair.

"Yes, Whamo! Indeed" Delphine chuckled, her laughter slowing.

Cosima took another bite as Delphine watched her eat for a few moments.

The French woman put her wine glass on the table and smiled "You are the most beautiful person I have ever met. I am so very lucky to be soon calling you my wife. People dream of being married to someone like you."

Cosima blushed, looking up at her fiancée as the piece of roast beef dangled from her mouth. She made a show of mawing at it with her lips covering her teeth as she spoke "I know, right?"

Delphine chuckled "You are such a goof" she told her.

Cosima laughed, taking a bite from the piece and letting the rest fall "Whatever, Dr. Paper-eyebrows-stuck-to-my-real-eyebrows."

"We got some good pictures from that" Delphine reminded her with a small chuckle.

"Oh yes we did. I think for Christmas you should blow one up for Charlotte. It's like her favourite thing ever. Sometimes I catch her just staring at it and giggling" the brunette informed her partner.

"Speaking of, what should we have for dinner tomorrow night at the sleepover?" Delphine asked

"Ah let's just order pizza or something" Cosima suggested, taking another bite from her dinner.

"Cosima, you know how I feel about pizza" Delphine grumbled.

Cosima rolled her eyes "Okay, we'll order a pizza and make a nice big salad! Happy vegetable queen?" she asked.

"Well at least I now know where Charlotte gets the eye rolling from. Thank you for that, by the way" the doctor grumbled in return.

"You are most welcome for our sassy little kiddo" the dreaded clone retorted. "But let's be real, she gets some of that sass from you too."

"I am not sassy!" The blonde exclaimed, shocked.

"Yeah, okay. Sure" Cosima replied, shaking her head. "Whatever Sassy McSasspants!"

They both burst in to laughter, sitting back in their chairs and sipping at their wine.

"I love you" Cosima told her fiancée.

It earned her an ear to ear ray of sunshine that spread throughout Delphine's face.

"Je t'aime aussi, mon Coeur. I love you too, my heart" Delphine responded.

Cosima picked her utensils back up and worked on finishing her dinner, a feat she had not been able to complete without weed in a long time. Maybe it was the happiness coursing through her, but she felt so very interested in this food right now. Perhaps it was the company.

After a final bite, Delphine picked up her wine to slowly finish it. She watched her lover eat gingerly, amazed at how she'd gotten half of her plate down. But her mind wandered when she saw that soft, warm tongue sneak out of Cosima's mouth to lick her lips. She licked her own in response, feeling her breathing hitch.

Cosima's attention turned towards the woman sitting across from her. She'd heard the slight hiccup in Delphine's breathing.

Those eyes trailed up to the blonde from behind the wide framed glasses. Cat-eye make-up accentuating the dark hazel eyes that peered back at her. Delphine bit her bottom lip, rolling it between her teeth as she felt her body course with desire, blood spreading to fill her nipples and cause her clit to become unbelievably tight.

A mischievous smile played across the brunette's lips as she recognized what was happening. She set herself to quickly finish her dinner, took a big gulp of her wine, and looked up at Delphine.

The blonde giggled, seeing the eagerness in her fiancée's movements.

"Take me upstairs?" Cosima asked in a nearly pleading tone.

Delphine placed her glass on the table, slowly standing. She let the material of her t-shirt that had bunched while she was seated, fall and straighten itself out to hang off the curve of her breasts. The tall blonde slowly walked over to her partner, bending over and wrapping her arms around the woman's waist.

Cosima wrapped her own arms around Delphine's neck and allowed herself to be pulled to her feet and up, flush against her fiancée's body. She couldn't help her eyes fluttering closed and a contented sigh escaping her throat at the contact.

Delphine placed a wisp of a kiss on the brunette's neck as she took off the cannula and steered them to the stairs, carefully climbing each one with a solid grip on Cosima. Once they got to the top of the steps, Delphine stopped and faced Cosima.

"What?" Cosima asked, giggling at the scrunched up face Delphine made.

Delphine reached down to pick up Cosima by her ass. The smaller woman laughed, wrapping her arms and legs around the blonde to hang on. Delphine bounced her slightly, patting her bum as she kissed her neck.

"Mon petit panda. T'es si légère. My little panda. You're so light." Delphine cooed to her, walking them to their bedroom.

Cosima snuggled happily in to Delphine's shoulder, much like she's seen Charlotte do a million sleepy times. She felt herself being placed gently down on the bed. Reluctantly, she let go of the solid frame, pouting up at the blonde.

"I'll be right back, mon amour. I have to go get your tank" she reminded her.

Cosima grumbled and let her head fall back on the pillow.

"Une minute, c'est tout" Delphine assured her as she walked out of the room.

Cosima reached over to the nightstand to grab a tissue, holding back the cough. She got it just in time. She thought about how they should really just get red bedding. It would solve a lot of problems.

As promised, Delphine was back quickly, oxygen tank in tow. She set it up next to the bed before climbing on to the mattress next to Cosima. She leaned in, kissing her partner softly at first as she hooked the plastic tubing around each ear and gently inserted the nose tubes. She then continued, reaching for Cosima's shirt.

The brunette arched her back and allowed the French woman to pull the fabric off, her nipples hardening at the slight chill in the air. Her skin rose into a million tiny little goosebumps as she pulled Delphine closer, trapping her bottom lip between her own.

Delphine's hands found the taut stomach, tracing the ghosts of muscle that used to lie beneath the skin. She flattened her palms against Cosima's flesh, determined to touch every inch of her as she sucked the woman's top lip, mounting her thigh.

The tall blonde broke the kiss, sitting up and taking off her shirt. Cosima's hands were instantly on her hips, rubbing around to her back. She looked down at her love and could not stand not kissing her for another minute.

Just as Cosima's hands found the perfect weight of Delphine's breasts, the French woman bent down to capture her face in her hands once more, parting her lips to gently lick the brunette's own before the softness descended, pressing against them in a passionate kiss.

The young scientist gently squeezed the supple breasts in her hands, letting her palms run against the hard nipples she found before letting go to pull Delphine down to her. Those hands quickly fell down to the perfectly hard ass cheeks belonging to her gorgeous woman. She slipped her thumbs into the waistband of the boxers Delphine was wearing and pulled them down.

The blonde lifted herself to help kick them off, now completely naked, perched atop Cosima's knee. She watched as Cosima admired her body. Delphine's hand went to her hair, flipping back the curls as she smiled down at her.

"See something that you like?" she teased.

Cosima nodded and ran a hand down her body, the other one pulled off her glasses and put them on her nightstand. "Come here. I want to taste you."

"Are you sure?" Delphine asked, wearily.

"Fuck yes. Besides, what a better use for a cannula?" she joked.

Delphine giggled, moving up Cosima's trunk to her face. She braced herself by taking hold of the headboard as she allowed her legs to lower her aching core to the brunette's face.

Cosima's head spun as she was treated to Delphine's smell. She watched in awe as those pussy lips slowly descended to her face, hanging just slightly from her fiancée's body. She hooked her arms around the blonde's hips, pulling her closer as she let that scent intoxicate her.

"Mmmm you smell…incredible" Cosima purred, reaching out with her tongue to gently lick up Delphine's vulva.

Delphine whimpered, careful to keep her weight off of the woman beneath her. She felt her fiancée's tongue lap at her cunt and every muscle in her body quickly tense, then release. Cosima's hands ran over her ass, as she started to grind her hips over top of that tongue.

All Cosima could smell was her fiancée's musk. She inhaled deeply from the cannula as she latched on to Delphine's clit, sucking it, along with the upper parts of her pussy lips into her mouth. She felt the woman's hips stop bucking and instead pulsed as she hungrily sucked at the quickly growing bundle. She then added her tongue to the mix, slipping it expertly under Delphine's clitoral hood to apply direct stimulation.

Delphine felt the electricity zap up from her clit and quickly gasped, throwing her head back as her body reacted to the exposure and stimulation of her move sensitive part.

"Cosima" she whimpered.

Cosima let go, using her tongue to now bathe between every fold of Delphine's cunt. She ran it along the outsides of each lip before sucking each of them into her mouth and running down their length.

"Mon Dieu Cosima!" Delphine cried.

The brunette then moved back up, focusing her efforts on her partner's clit. She used her free hand to gently lift the skin of Delphine's abdomen to expose the organ for better access. This time, she stayed on it. Even as Delphine moved her hips again, grinding her face, she kept her tongue on that hard little bundle.

"I…gonna…Cosima" Delphine moaned between deep breaths.

With this encouragement, Cosima latched on again, sucking hard as she felt Delphine tense, then soften around her.

Delphine's body exploded as she felt herself melt in to Cosima. She'd forgotten how good she was with her mouth. Delphine slumped down, her orgasm rolling over her every inch. She rode it out, whimpering at the sensation of release. Then it stopped and she was left twitching with the aftershocks. She careful dismounted the brunette's face to move down her shorter body and sit down on her hips. She took a deep breath, reaching down to gently roll Cosima's breasts in her palms.

"Mon Dieu, Cosima" she breathed.

Cosima smiled, wiping her sloppy face, then reaching up to put a hand on Delphine's hip "Yeah, I heard that one a few times" she joked.

Delphine chuckled and rolled off of her, curling up on her partner's shoulder.

"You better not think I'm done with you" Cosima whispered to her, rolling over onto her side and gently running the backs of her fingers over a still erect nipple.

Delphine smiled and looked up at her "Ben non! I am simply taking a cuddle break."

Cosima thought for a moment, pursing her lips before she nodded "I'll allow it" she joked.

"Oh will you now?" Delphine asked "You will allow it?"

The clone nodded "Just this once" she told Delphine, followed by a giggle.

Delphine joined in, giggling like mad before she kissed Cosima's cheek.

"God, I love you" Cosima whispered, turning to look at her.

Delphine's laughter settled and she leaned in, kissing Cosima passionately. She pulled away slowly, smoothing the skin of Cosima's cheek with her thumb "Je t'aime aussi, mon amour."

Cosima reached around Delphine's neck to tangle a hand in her hair and pull her close again. She entangled their lips, gently nibbling Delphine's top one as it slid between her own. She quickly soothed it with her tongue and ran a hand up Delphine's torso to take a handful of breast and squeeze it gently before running a thumb over her nipple.

Delphine moaned in to Cosima's mouth, reaching around her to rest a firm hand on her lower back, drawing her closer. It could never be close enough. She felt the heat rise between them as their nearly naked bodies pressed together. She'd have to do something about Cosima's bottoms.

Never breaking the kiss, the Frenchwoman reached down and tugged Cosima's sweat shorts down, fumbling with them as she kept trying to rid her partner of the material. She felt Cosima smile against her lips and she smiled back. Her fiancée's hands joined in the effort and before long, the bottoms were gone.

Delphine let her hand slide up the olive skin of Cosima's hip, moaning at the contact. She took a firm hold on the joint and as she slipped her tongue in to the scientist's mouth, she pulled the hip close, keeping it flush with her own.

They were now pressed all along each other, stark naked.

Delphine looped a leg over her fiancee's hip, pulling her in closer as she felt Cosima's hand leave her breast to reach around her back. Cosima broke the kiss.

The tall blonde lowered her head to look her partner in the eye. She saw that Cosima's eyes were shut and she was biting her bottom lip.

"What is wrong mon amour?" she asked in a hushed tone, leaning in to pepper Cosima's neck with kisses.

Cosima moaned as she felt Delphine's tongue run in and out of the crook of her collar bone.

"Woah! Mmm…Delphine…I really want you to ride me" she moaned, feeling the blonde then gently nibble on her earlobe.

Delphine swirled her tongue in to Cosima's ear before leaning in and whispering in to it, slightly blowing air on to the wet flesh as she did "Oui? And how do you want to do that?"

Cosima smiled as she rolled her hips, her back arching slightly. She had shivers all the way to her toes. Delphine's mouth then went back to work on her neck as she reached over to her nightstand, trying to find the handle to the drawer without looking.

The Frenchwoman chuckled, letting go of her partner's neck to lean over and open the drawer. She saw immediately what Cosima had been reaching for. Her hand closed over the toy and pulled it out, closing the drawer. She sat up on Cosima's hips, putting the toy on her tummy.

"Is this what you wanted?" Delphine asked, raising an eyebrow.

Cosima nodded "There's lube in there too if we need it" she told her partner.

"I do not think that will be necessary" Delphine purred.

The tall blonde swung a long leg over the woman beneath her to dismount her. She lied back down next to her and ran a hand slowly up Cosima's thigh, lightly raking her nails across the skin. Her eyes flickered up to Cosima's face.

The brunette's head was thrown back and her eyes were closed as she felt the hand nearing ever closer to the space between her thighs that was pulsing with need. She spread her legs, giving the woman she trusted more than anyone unrestricted access to the sensitive bit of flesh that lead to the inside of her body.

Cosima opened her eyes, staring up at Delphine as she smiled.

"Do you want me to touch you?" the blonde asked, a hand hovering over the unbearable heat radiating from her partner's core.

The brunette nodded with a slight whimper "Please, Delphine."

It always felt so good to hear how much Cosima wanted her. She lingered a moment longer just barely out of reach before she let her hand come in to contact with Cosima's cunt.

Delphine let out a low, grumbly moan as her lips left a trail of kisses to Cosima's breast.

"You are so wet" she moaned, circling a nipple with her tongue.

Cosima felt every hair on her body stand on end at the contact. She couldn't help but writhe under her fiancée's touch. She reached for Delphine's head, taking a handful of hair and pulling her in to a fevered kiss. She needed more. She needed to feel Delphine.

The clone's hand reached for the feeldoe that was still on her tummy and she handed it to the blonde.

Delphine felt the toy being thrust in to her hand and she gripped it, kissing Cosima as deeply as she could. Her hands found their way through the familiar territory of the tiny, slick folds that made up her partner's vulva as she slowly slipped the bulb into Cosima's opening, lovingly reaching in to pull the brunette's pussy lips out of the way.

Cosima felt her lower back muscles twitch as she stretched to let the bulb in. Her jaw shook and she held on tightly to Delphine's head.

The blonde pushed the toy in until it was nestled safely inside of her partner. She smiled, taking hold of the shaft that now jutted out from Cosima's body and gave it a tug.

The clone's world erupted as the bulb pushed against her g-spot and the ridges on her end of the shaft brushed her clit. She shuddered and started up the kiss again, eagerly making out with the love of her life.

That reaction sent a stream of juices dripping from between Delphine's legs as she placed a hand on her fiancée's stomach, giving the shaft another tug. When Cosima's body reacted the same way she smiled wide. This was going to be fun.

Delphine broke the kiss to kneel on the bed, her knees resting on either side of Cosima's hips. She took hold of the shaft and lifted a leg, tilting her pelvis to give the brunette a great view of the head of the shaft that she ran through her cunt lips.

"Fuck, Delphine" she whispered, doing her best to not buck her hips and slide right in.

Cosima's hands reached up to each take a breast in them and she moaned, looking up in to her partner's eyes "Please? Can I please be inside of you now?" she asked.

Delphine smiled, lining the head up and letting her body ease down on to it. She felt herself widen to accommodate the girth and leaned back, her stomach muscles rolling with the tightening of her body as she felt that delicious stretch. She was so wet, her body was so ready for this.

Cosima could feel the tug against her g-spot as she watched the cock bury itself inside of the love of her life. She watched with bated breath as Delphine's lips fanned out around the intruding object. She watched on the edge of her seat as her future wife took the entire length, her clit merely centimeters from her own stomach.

Delphine felt herself reach the hilt and moaned, letting her body get used to the size of the new toy. She looked down to see the amazement in Cosima's eyes and she let a whimper escape as she rolled her hips.

Cosima gasped, quickly lying back down as her insides were jolted by the movement.

"Oh fuck Delphine, you feel so fucking good" she moaned.

"Me? Merde, Cosima" the blonde whimpered, leaning back and taking hold of her partner's ankles as she continued to move her hips.

Delphine felt the movement deeper inside of her than anyone had ever been. She felt so very full. The sensations running through her own body mixed with those she was receiving from watching Cosima respond to her movements. This was amazing. She could not wait to be on the other end and sliding in to Cosima. But that was for another day. Right now, she was going to ride Cosima until her eyes rolled back in her head and her knees buckled.

Cosima felt her hands being taken and placed on Delphine's tits. The blonde held them there, squeezing herself with Cosima's palms. The clone's mouth was dry and her eyes were scanning up from the expression of ecstasy on Delphine's face, down to where her cunt was eagerly sucking in the shaft jutting out from her body. As Delphine slid further up and down the toy, she felt the changes inside of herself. She couldn't help but pulse her hips to meet her partner's movements.

Delphine's whole body rolled as she felt Cosima push in to her. Her mouth hung open as she felt the head push through her sensitive walls. She fell forward, bracing herself on her elbows but allowing her now sweaty body to press against Cosima's. She kissed the woman's neck and moaned deeply in her ear.

This only encouraged Cosima further, taking hold of her fiancée's hips and bucking her own to fuck her deeply. The young scientist felt her body tense at it teetered on the cusp of falling over the edge.

Delphine relished the feeling of skin on skin, but her cunt ached to be fucked hard. She could feel that Cosima was close, could tell by the tightness in her body. She braced her knees and sat up again slightly, bouncing herself in to a full gallop on top of her partner.

Cosima's back arched as her toes curled and everything flexed. Her body trembled. She could feel Delphine drip down onto her stomach and opened her eyes to lock them with those of her love.

After catching the look in Cosima's eyes, Delphine looked down to see her juices dripping down the shaft and onto Cosima. She'd squirted. Just the idea was enough to send her teetering.

"I'm so close" Cosima whimpered.

"Moi aussi, mon amour….mmm" Delphine whimpered.

Cosima reached up, brushing Delphine's clit with a thumb. The blonde lurched forward, her stomach shaking as she nearly fell onto her partner, catching herself at the last minute on her outstretched arms.

That did it for Cosima and spots clouded her vision, her body finally giving in and erupting in an orgasm that ripped through every nerve and muscle inside of her. She felt herself twitch in Delphine. The blonde responded by squeezing her thighs, the added stimulation intensifying her orgasm.

Delphine's eyes were shut so tightly against Cosima's body as the tears fell against the soft skin. Her orgasm didn't relent. Her ass clenched as she felt all of her vaginal muscles get a vice grip on the shaft inside of her.

"Fuck!" Cosima cried, getting toppled over the edge again as the clench of Delphine's muscles caused the bulb inside of her to jump against her g-spot again.

Cosima noticed that the bed beneath her was wet, but didn't care as her next orgasm rolled over, taking her body on another wild ride.

Delphine breathed hard against her body, kissing the sweaty neck in front of her as she held Cosima through her second orgasm.

A few moments later, Cosima's body relaxed and she sighed happily, reaching up to stroke Delphine's hair.

The blonde lay happily on Cosima's chest, careful to support her own weight. She needed a moment before she dismounted. She was catching her breath.

The clone ran a lazy hand up and down the skin of Delphine's back, feeling the clammy sweat that permeated its milky perfection. She took a deep breath, glad for the oxygen and turned her head to kiss her future wife's cheek.

With one hand playing with Delphine's hair and the other running up and down her back, Cosima smiled "Wow."

Delphine nodded against the sweaty shoulder beneath her, still catching her breath.

"I think that was the best sex I've ever had" the clone admitted.

The butterflies erupted in Delphine's stomach and she let the biggest smile spread over her face. She'd done that. She turned her head to kiss the skin on Cosima's shoulder, moving up to rest higher, letting the dip of her nose press in to the curve of the clone's cheek.

"Moi aussi" Delphine whispered.

The blonde pushed her face into Cosima's neck, letting the tears fall as her index finger traced the curve of the breast next to her.

Cosima smiled, holding Delphine close.

"Je t'aime" Cosima attempted.

Delphine's heart smiled at the gesture "I love you too."

The blonde took another deep breath and kissed the brunette's cheek before she sat up, wincing now at the shaft still inside of her sensitive cunt. She carefully pulled off and rubbed Cosima's stomach.

"Do you want me to take it out?" she asked the dreaded clone.

A nod confirmed and Delphine took a grip on the base of the bulb. She gave it a gentle tug, but it was firmly in place. She giggled.

"You are going to have to let it go" she joked.

"No. Mine" Cosima retorted.

They both laughed and that seemed to do the trick, the bulb sliding right out. It was coated in white cream that made Delphine crave a taste. She looked up at Cosima as she placed the toy on her nightstand for later cleaning.

"Can I clean you up?" she asked.

The brunette smiled and nodded, running a hand through Delphine's hair as the blonde positioned herself between her legs. She sighed happily as she felt Delphine's tongue trace her folds.

"When my lungs and legs will let me, I am going to drill you so hard with that thing" Cosima whispered to Delphine as she relaxed and enjoyed the treatment she was receiving.

The moment the taste hit Delphine's tongue she moaned, running the organ over every inch of Cosima. She was so warm and creamy. Men never tasted like this. She was sweet and tangy and coated her mouth. She sucked Cosima clean, and then kissed up her body to meet her partner's awaiting lips.

"Mmm…I like the sound of that" the blonde crooned, leaning down and finally connecting their soft flesh.

Cosima moaned at the taste. She loved the way she tasted on Delphine's tongue. She let her own roll out to meet more of it, running gently over every taste bud inside of the blonde's mouth. She pulled her tongue back in to her own mouth to savour it as she moved her lips softly over Delphine's.

When they finally broke away, Delphine was holding her cheeks, pressing their foreheads together.

"I have never in my life felt something so amazingly deep as being naked and pressed against you" Delphine whispered to her.

Cosima smiled "Well I've never slept as well as when you're naked pressed against me" she replied with a tiny yawn.

The brunette took hold of Delphine's hand, taking it with her as she rolled on to her side. The French woman turned with her, allowing herself to be pulled into a spooning position. Cosima then laid the hand on her tummy, tracing its tendons and veins with her index finger as her eyes closed.

Soft lips pressed to her back as she sighed happily.

Delphine pulled the duvet up to cover both of them before settling back in to the snuggle, moving her hips to meet the curve of the smaller bum that was in front of them. Her tall frame wrapped itself around Cosima's smaller one.

She never could get quite close enough.
