~'Cause I got better luck in my head
We're just ghosts inside my bed
I got better luck in my head
Playing poker with the dead…~
"Maxine Caulfield, I have never been more ashamed in my life!"
Max winced at the sharp tone in her mother's voice as she told her off over and over again through the receiver of the phone at Chloe's house, only half-listening to the repeated scoldings. She cast Chloe a forlorn look. "Mom, I-" She was cut off again, her mother going off on some irrelevant tangent. Max groaned inwardly.
Chloe returned the look just barely, getting her own ass handed to her by Joyce. David stood almost triumphantly beside her with his arms crossed over his chest and a stupid smirk hidden under his mustache. Chloe listened to her go on about how that was the behavior that got her kicked out of Blackwell, et cetera. Chloe rolled her eyes and started to argue back. "Mom, we were just having a bit of fun, it's not that-"
"Don't you dare tell me it's not that big a deal!" Joyce interrupted, making Chloe sulk. The bluenette ended up looking down and tugging at a stray strand of fabric on her shirt.
Max's attention snapped back to her mother was saying when she said something along the lines of, "What were you and that girl doing?", to which she hastily replied, "Nothing!" a little too loudly that resulted in a dusty blush as she lowered her voice and repeated the word.
"Look, Mom, it's okay. I'm not getting kicked out of Blackwell or anything, it-" Once again, her mother didn't let her finish and rambled on and on about reputation.
By the time Chloe's scolding was almost over, her hands were clenched in fists and her eyes were starting to brim over with hot tears. She stomped off away from Joyce when she started to bring up how she used to be when she was younger. Chloe came to a stop at the front door and turned around only to yell, "When I was younger, I had a real fucking dad! Not some step prick who steps all over people for the fuck of it!" And she exited the house, slamming the door behind her. She went for her truck and pulled out her pack of cigarettes and a lighter from her pocket. She counted her cigarettes - Seven left, I need to get more… - and took one out to light it.
Max flinched at the tone of Chloe's voice. Even though it wasn't directed at her, it still intimidated her slightly. She was still thinking about that, in fact, so she barely noticed when her mom bid her a stiff farewell and hung up the phone. She placed the telephone back it its rightful place, thanked Joyce - but not David, completely evading his eye - for letting her use it, and hurried outside to where she'd seen Chloe disappear to. She stepped out into the cool and sweet smelling air and quickly caught sight of the punk, making her way to her.
"Hey…" She greeted quietly and cautiously when she was near enough. She wasn't sure if Chloe was going to want to even look at her after what happened.
Chloe turned to her and the malice in her eyes and face instantly drained, being replaced with a look of apology. "Sorry." was the first thing she said, and she hoped it was clear she was apologizing for everything. She brought the cigarette to her lips and took a slow drag. She huffed it out anxiously through her nose and her foot taps against the asphalt of the driveway.
"Don't be, it's okay." Max was about to step closer to give her a hug, to feel her warmth to comfort her once again, but decided against it and leaned on the truck with her.
Chloe got halfway through her cigarette before tossing it on the ground and stomping it out. She shoved her hands in her pocket awkwardly and looked at Max. "Do you… want me to take you back to Blackwell?" It was obvious that the suggestion hurt her a bit, but, seeing as she didn't want to leave her, she was low on options. "I mean, you can stay here tonight if you want. Joyce and David can complain all they want but I won't let them kick you out."
Max was about to take Chloe up on her offer when she noticed the hurt lurking in her face, immediately changing her mind. I have to be here with her. She smiled thankfully. "Can I? I don't want to leave you here alone."
Chloe brightened up, nodding. "Ah, thanks. Yeah. David will be leaving soon to go back to the school and I'm not sure about my mom, but… one less adult to get around." She stood up straight and took her hand from her pocket to grab Max's. She stroked the back of it with the pad of her thumb. "Until then, wanna chill out here?"
Max smiled at her, ignoring the untimely butterflies for what seemed like the millionth time, and squeezed her hand gently. Nothing less than undeniable love blooming and flaring behind her gaze. "Yeah. Definitely."
"Awesome. We can do some stargazing." Chloe tugged lightly on Max's hand and led her around to the back of her truck. She opened up the door to the flatbed and clambered onto it, helping Max up with her. With her free hand she patted the space beside her for Max to lay down in.
Max smiled and did as Chloe directed her, lowering herself down onto the cool surface of the truck. Instinctively, she held onto her, savoring the warmth and pushing away the anxiety that immediately began to rustle nervously in her stomach. Chloe wrapped her arms around her shoulders and nodded up to the sky. She pointed at a star and tried to trace the outline.
"I think that's Orion, right? The one with the belt?" she asked.
Relaxing into her arm, Max followed where Chloe's finger was pointing and study the constellation quietly for a few seconds. "I'm no astronomer, but I think that's Pegasus. The stars aren't even close enough to be Orion's belt." She chuckled, and suddenly, her butterflies were gone as she pointed out another constellation. "Hey, look! It's Pisces, your sign." Another one caught her eye. "And Andromeda!" She grinned. "Wow, it's so beautiful."
Chloe laughed and shook her head. "You sure you're not an astronomer? You're knocking these out one by one." She looked back to the sky and narrowed her gaze, sitting up a bit. Her eyes flitted across the sky for a moment. "Hey, I made a butterfly. Look," She took Max's hand by her wrist and raised it up to trace the outline. She turned to her with a smile on her face. "See it?"
Max's grin broadened and her heart just about exploded. "Yeah… yeah, I see it." She met Chloe's gaze, the smile only growing wider and more love-inspired. "That one can be ours. Our constellation." Resting her head against Chloe's shoulder, she said softly, almost tentatively, "Let's name it."
"Good idea! Okay, how about…" Chloe bit her lip for a second and laughed softly. "Shit, I'm not great with names. Um… Aren't the names, like, Greek or something?"
"Yeah, they are." Max laughed quietly again. "Wait a second, I know a little Greek. Just a little bit." She racked her brain quickly, moving her lips ever so slightly to sound out the words in her head. Peta… Petalouda mas. She said it quietly. She smiled, looked at Chloe, and said it again. "Petalouda mas. Our butterfly."
Chloe's heart skipped. She chuckled and leaned into Max. "You're such a dork." She said, but it came out nothing short of affectionate. She rested her forehead against hers, her other arm going around her to bring her a bit closer. "But you're my dork. And I love it." She kissed her lovingly smiling like an idiot against her lips.
Her heart racing in her chest, Max returned the kiss with just as much affection. Her arms went around Chloe's neck to pull her even closer, and when she finally broke the kiss to breathe, she pressed her forehead against her and gazed directly into her eyes. "I love you, you know that?"
"I love you, too." Chloe brought her a hand up to tuck Max's hair behind her ear. The words rolled off her tongue so easily, she wanted to say them again. "I love you." Her idiot grin widened. She playfully shoved Max. "Man, look what you've done, Caulfield. You turned me into a sap. Hope you're proud of yourself."
Max giggled. "Hey, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em." She laid another short kiss to her lips, yet it seems to be filled with as much love as before. "And you definitely can't beat the saps." She grinned as well, and she was unable to tear her gaze from Chloe, not even to look at the stars again to search for Petalouda mas in the vast carpet of constellations.
"Oh, that's where you're wrong. I have my ways of dealing with saps." Chloe was grinning teasingly by that point. Her hand left her hair and started trailing down her side to her waist. Her voice became jokingly threatening. "And none of them are good."
Max's breath caught in her throat and the butterflies returned immediately. She could feel the heat rising in her face. But she gulped and tried to get her voice to stay steady, though visibly failing. "Y-you have my interest piqued."
"I do?" Chloe dug her nails in just a bit and brought Max close again until they were barely a breath away from each other. "You're taking a bold risk here. Are you sure you wish to proceed?"
Max squeaked softly at the way Chloe's nailed buried into her. Swallowing again, her throat suddenly going dry, she bit her lip. But she nodded. "Uh huh."
Chloe searched her eyes and grinned, slipped her arm out from under her and flipping them over so she was on top of her. She stuck her hand under her shirt just enough to brush her finger along the edge of her pants before placing it flat against her. She leaned in to kiss her deeply, breathing out through her nose with a gentle sigh. Max's breath quickened considerably. Her blush brightening, she returned her kiss tentatively, her arms moving around her warmly to pull her closer. She broke the kiss for a moment to look at Chloe clearly, bright eyes, and felt her heart skip a beat.
Chloe allowed Max to bring her closer, purposely pressing her lower half into her with a small smirk. She occasionally, gingerly, scraped her nails along her stomach, even sometimes teasing her by letting a nail draw a line from her navel to the top of her pants. She, too, gazed into Max's eyes for a moment before going in to kiss her once more. She started off with a few light ones before progressively getting longer and more passionate with each kiss she left. She gyrated her hips slowly and applied more pressure when she knew she had made contact with her center. She groaned into her mouth, parting her lips to gasp.
Max had to break the kiss again the tilt her head back and moan, moving her hips up to meet hers in an uncoordinated fashion. Her nails dug into the back of Chloe's neck, and she sighed her name, full of need.
It's then that Chloe heard the front door open and her mother's voice, bidding David a goodbye. She lifted her head in time to watch him come down the sidewalk. He turned to look at them once he reached his car, his eyes narrowing when he noticed the position they were in. Chloe got a little bold and flipped him off with a grimace. David shook his head disapprovingly and got in the car, starting it and disappearing down the street.
Max had completely froze when the door opened, shutting her eyes and her mouth tightly while David had come down the sidewalk. She stayed that way through the whole wordless exchange, holding her breath and waiting for some kind of punishment as her arms tightened around Chloe in fear. Chloe looked back down at Max with a small smile at what she saw. She poked her cheek and laugh.
"Moment's ruined again, I guess." She said.
"Yeah…" Max breathed a sigh of relief when she realized David was gone. But she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Both times had been a chance to make their relationship something more, and both times had come to a crashing halt thanks to him. Max's stomach churned in resentment.
Chloe gave her another quick kiss and leaned off to the side with a sympathetic smile. "Well, maybe isn't a good idea for it to occur outside anyway." Despite her words she gave another lazy scratch down Max's stomach before pulling her hand from under her shirt, drawing out a shuddering gasp and a whine of frustration from the shorter girl. "I think my mom is heading to her room right about now. If you wanna go inside."
Max nodded, having to admit that it was starting to get really cold outside. She sat up a little and shivered. She could feel the sudden rush of blood to her head. Chloe laughed quietly and climbed out of the truck, tugging lightly on Max's ankle to tell her to do the same. Once she got down, she shut the door to the flatbed and took her hand. "Are you hungry at all? I can get the stuff I had for the indoor picnic, bring it upstairs."
Max nodded a little, and her stomach growls along as if on cue. "Sure, I'll help you bring everything inside." She smiled bashfully.
Chloe shook her head, unable to wipe the grin off her face. She opened up the driver door to the truck and gathered everything up, handing off a few items to Max. She kicked the door closed and went to the front door. She shifted the stuff in her arms so she could open it and held it open with her foot for Max to head upstairs.
"Thanks." Max said. She stepped inside, thankful to be free from the chill, and went up to take the items in her arms to Chloe's room. She set them down and waited for Chloe to come up. She stuck her head out of her doorway to laugh." Hurry up, slowpoke!"
"I'm coming!" Chloe called. She stepped inside closed the door. She then headed upstairs, giving Max a small grin as she passed her, and went into her room. She set the stuff down and sighed. "Wanna set it up like an actual picnic? Pillow fort? Movie on the laptop?"
Max beamed. "Ooh, cute. Definitely." Starting to help Chloe set it up, she grabbed some pillows and blankets and began laying them out.
"Well, gotta make up date night somehow." Chloe helped created the fort by grabbing a few more pillows and blankets from the closet in the hallway. She returned with them piled up in her arms and tossed them on her bed to grab as they needed them.
Building the fort wasn't too bad.. Chloe simultaneously set up the picnic to make sure they built around it and still make enough space for themselves. By the time they were done, Max's stomach had growled at least a half dozen times in total, her erupting into a fit of giggles each time it happened. But they managed to finish the fort in record time, anyway. "It looks neat!" She admired, stepping back to take it in.
Chloe laughed along whenever Max's stomach growled and it nearly made her mess up the fort. But once it's finished, she nodded in agreement with her - and dived in while shutting the "door" carefully. "Now what's the password?!" She said, grinning smugly.
Max put her hands on her hips and sighed exasperatedly, shaking her head and laughing. "What are we, twelve?" She teased lovingly. "I dunno, um…" She thought for a bit. "Sparklehorse!"
"Hella yes, we're twelve! Twelve at heart!" Chloe laughed and shook her head. "The answer is no, by the way. But I do love Sparklehorse."
Max laughed once more and took a step closer to the makeshift door, getting down on her knees to be more level with it. "Hm, how about 'My name is Chloe Price and I act all tough on the outside but really I'm a snuggly wuggly teddy bear?'" The guess is a complete joke, but she doesn't take it back either, laughing.
Chloe rolled her eyes, trying not to smile at that. "Oh, hardy har har. Keep being a smart ass and you won't get in, Caulfield." She pretended to look down at her wrist like there was a watch on it. "You're running out of time and chances. Might wanna hurry?"
Max scoffed. "As if you wouldn't let me in even if I didn't get the password, you ol' sap." She teased Chloe with her own words, laughing again. She only laughed harder when Chloe jokingly bared her teeth at her use of the word. "Okay, okay, I'm done teasing. Is it…" And with a sudden burst of realization, she looked up at Chloe, her pale blue eyes suddenly filling up with a mix of jumbled emotions. "'Petalouda mas.' That's it, isn't it? Our butterfly."
Chloe noticed the emotions in Max's eyes start to build and a smile crossed her face when she knew she got it. When she said it out loud, she nodded and eased the door open for Max to come in, followed by her arms.
Max quickly surged forth into Chloe's open arms. This makes the bluenette collapse backwards, nearly disrupting the structure of the fort. Her own arms go around Chloe's neck and she kissed her once, twice, three times. After the third one she just looked her, grinning stupidly. "You've hit an all time low. That was your sappiest yet."
Chloe laughed with each kiss, Her hands went to her waist and squeezed lightly. The stupid grin is on her face again, her eyes sparkling with a childish but adoring light. "Oh, just you wait. I can do much worse." She picked her head up to kiss Max once more, much slower than the last few times.
Smiling into the soft, warm kiss, Max spoke between breaths. "Ooh, I'm so scared." She chuckled quietly, pressing close to Chloe for warmth as she broke away from the kiss again, smiling mischievously. "So do your worst."
"Well, I would, but we have food getting cold and a movie to cue up." Chloe winked teasingly. "Not to mention, I have a feeling we might get interrupted again." But she would be lying if she said she wouldn't keep going at that point no matter who walked in. As long as Max was okay with it. "But maybe after the movie… when I'm sure my mom is asleep…"
'This might actually happen…' Max thought. She blushed a little. Her smiled faltered for a second at this reality. But only a second. It's quickly returned as the comforting thought planted itself in her mind, repeating itself over and over. 'It's with the one you're in love with.' Grinning wider, she pressed into her neck. "Okay, I can wait." She laughed and jokingly added, "I think."
Chloe laughed a bit at Max's eagerness. "Never thought someone would be so excited to sleep with me." She joked, her hand moving up and down Max's side. Though she was sort of lying, being reminded of her many flings she'd had. She told herself that she was going to want to take it slow with Max. That she wasn't anything like the other people she'd been with.
Chloe's hand left Max shivering in it's wake, a tiny contented sigh escaping her parted lips. "H-hey, no teasing." She forced a small joke and grinned, her cheeks burning crimson, pushing herself off of Chloe to rest a little ways away from her. She calmed her heavy beating heart.
"Trust me, you'll like my teasing." Chloe winked and laughed when Max shoved off of her. She sat up and moved forward to grab her laptop and pull the food toward them. She set the food between them and the laptop in front, bringing up a fresh webpage. "So what do you wanna watch?"
Max blushed even more, but she moved closer to Chloe when she brought to them the food and laptop, shifting into a much more comfortable position. "Hm, I dunno." She thought for a moment. "Why not just browse until we find one we like?"
"You got it." Chloe pulled up a site known as SolarMovie and bit her lip, scrolling down the page. "Let me know when you see one you wanna watch."
Max watched as a few went by, stopping Chloe when she saw one strikingly familiar one. 'Blue is the Warmest Color.' "Oh, someone told me about that one once. It sounds good. Can we see it?"
Chloe raised an eyebrow and clicked on the link. Reading the synopsis, she scratched her head. "It's a French movie about two chicks. We're gonna need subtitles." She dropped her hand back to the track pad and looked at her. "If you're cool with subtitles. I'm in it for the girls." She gave Max a sly grin.
Max's face turned a little pink and she stared at the food, nodding a little as she was unable to look at Chloe without butterflies bursting in her stomach. Chloe smiled a bit and clicked the link. The player came up on screen and, after a few seconds, the movie is loaded and playing. She sat back and wrapped her arms around Max, pulling her close. "And so it begins."
Resting into her side, Max looked at the scenes playing out on screen. But she wasn't really focusing on the movie, only paying attention to how close and warm Chloe was while her heart raced. She gulped subconsciously. Chloe's hands rubbed her side and Chloe even planted a soft kiss to her head at one point. Each action caused another round of shivers in Max. It wasn't until eighteen minutes into the movie, where Chloe was somewhat nibbling on a cookie, that an unexpected scene occurred and Chloe sputtered out crumbs, taken completely off guard. She took in the dream sequence with slightly widened eyes and a raised eyebrow. "Well, ah, this just got interesting. How did we not check the rating on this?"
When Chloe spoke, Max was suddenly jerked back into the reality of things. And, looking at the screen, she felt her entire face and neck flame, immediately looking away from it. 'Fuck.' She thought, biting her lip.
Chloe couldn't help but laugh at Max's reaction, and she just barely managed to tear her eyes away from the movie to look at her. In the faint light, she could see the rosy blush spreading across Max's skin and smirked. "Too much for you, Caulfield?" She debated for a moment whether or not to start teasing Max, but decided against it.
Max looked determinedly back at the screen, shaking her head firmly, but the blush doesn't recede on bit. She could slowly feel the heat burning up in her lower half, her breaths growing more strained by the second. As quick as the scene had started, it was over. Chloe laughed softly and gestured to the screen.
"See, look at that. It's done." She said. "You can relax now, alright?"
"Hush, you." Max retorted with a roll of her eyes. But the heat - in her cheeks, and beneath her waist - didn't go away. Her hands, which were clenched in fists, loosen in relief.
Chloe scoffed a third laugh and looked back at the screen. The next intimate scene that arose wasn't as interesting to her, having it been between the main girl and a guy. She didn't pay much attention to it, purposely losing interest for the time being. Once it passed, she was fully enthralled once more. Her arm tightened instinctively around Max. Max shivered with her arm pressing closer into her. Again, she wasn't paying much attention to the movie, focusing more intently on how Chloe's arms bracketed around her and sealed her in a wreathing warmth. She sighed softly.
Her sigh didn't go unnoticed. Chloe smiled softly and adjusted their positions so Max was seated in front of her, her legs stretching out past hers and her arms more comfortably fitting around her waist. She rested her cheek against her head, keeping her eyes on the screen as she linked her fingers together in front of the brunette.
Max squeaked quietly when Chloe shifted their positions, but she quickly relaxed when Chloe's arms were around her once again. Her heart was pounding faster than before; she thought she might burst. The movie drew on, the snacks dwindled in supply, but they both kept mild interest. They tried to balance focus on the movie and the other's presence at the same time. When the third scene came around, as sudden as the first one, Chloe laughed and shook her head. "If I'd known it was gonna be that kind of movie, I wouldn't of put it on." She said, leaning over to look at Max.
Max gulped. Her hand moved to Chloe's suddenly to look for a hold, and she grabbed on tightly. She didn't reply. She was biting her lip too hard, trying not to let a gasp escape. Chloe raised a brow at her reaction. Grinning, she knew to take the chance then. She leaned into Max, specifically her ear, and said, "Something wrong, Max?" She nuzzled into her lovingly, but her grin didn't change.
Max shivered at both actions. Her pulse was racing and her breathing was getting shallower by the second, and her cheeks weren't getting any better either. "N-no…"
"You don't seem too sure." Chloe took another chance and planted a kiss at the nape of Max's neck. Her arms held her closer into her as she left another kiss. With one eye open, she checked the time in the corner of the screen on the laptop. "You know… I think my mom might be asleep now…" She murmured with her lips still pressed against her skin.
Max moaned quietly. It could have passed for a sigh, maybe, had Chloe not of been right there next to her to be able to discern it as a moan. "And what… what did you have planned for us?" She rested further into Chloe subconsciously.
Chloe placed a gentle nip on her neck, smiling at her moan. She unlinked her hands and eased them under her shirt to flatten against her stomach. "Whatever you'll allow." She answered sincerely. Max shuddered again.
"Anything…" she said much too softly without thinking. But she repeated it, stronger. "Anything." She only said this because she knew Chloe wouldn't ask anything too demanding of her, but even so, she swallowed nervously.
"If I do anything you aren't okay with," Chloe said seriously, "Don't be afraid to tell me no. And I'll stop. Okay?" She kept her hands still for a moment, wanting it to be clear that she had no intentions of making Max do anything she didn't want to despite what she said.
Max gulped again and nodded. "Okay." She moved her hands to Chloe's to encourage the movement against, biting her lip a little.
The smile slowly returned to Chloe's lips when Max's hands found hers. She moved one hand up to her chest and squeezed gently, leaving a random pattern of kisses along the nape of her neck. Her other hand slowly curved in, scratching her nails along her skin. She moved to bite gently at the spot where Max's neck ended and shoulder began, knowing it would bring out some sort of response from her.
Max moaned quietly when Chloe's hand went to her chest, tilting her head to give her better access to her neck. And her nails sprung shivers into her from her fingertips, making her tremble despite the warmth emanating from Chloe. But when her teeth came to find that special spot, her eyes widen and she cried out softly. "Chloe!"
"Yes?" Chloe laughed a bit and did it again. She applied more pressure to her chest, attempting to roll her hips into her and wrapping her arm around her midriff to keep her in place. She teased the curve of her hip with her finger, sometimes dipping it under the hem of her jeans.
The strained cry came out of Max again. She grasped onto Chloe hard and dug her nails in, her moan tumbling out of her mouth without struggle. She arched her back when Chloe's finger dipped below her jeans, whimpering her name again. Chloe groaned, her jaw falling open at the tingling sensation that invaded her when Max's nail dug in. Tentatively she let her hand venture under her jeans to her most sensitive area over her underwear. Her finger grazed the already dampening area of the material and she pressed into Max. She continued to manipulate her breast gingerly. "Max…" She moaned out due to how Max felt against her. She bit her lip roughly.
Max moaned out breathily again, arching her back until her head was resting on her shoulder. Her eyes were shut tight in ecstasy and in her current pleasured state, her nails raked down Chloe's arm a bit roughly as her breathing intensified along with her moans. Chloe could feel her thoughts haze over with lust, but she kept it slow for Max. She moved her fingers in a slow circle in the general area that her clitoris should've been to her guess, pressing and moving up and down against her. She kissed that special area again, leaving a small bite after. She moved her other hand to slip under her bra. She couldn't help but gasp as she palmed her with gentle caresses and squeezes.
Max was squirming heavily now. Crying out at each of Chloe's ministrations, she could already feel the pleasure starting to grow unbearable. Every touch of Chloe's was intensified by the sheer sudden inclination of the pleasure pouring in and out of her. She pressed against Chloe and moaned her name desperately.
Chloe eventually took her hands from Max, but only to readjust their positions and lay Max back onto the floor. She situated herself over her and between her legs, staring down at her in lustful awe. Her breathing uneven and heart pounding in her ears, she lowered herself back down her Max and kissed her passionately, simultaneously gyrating her hips into hers tantalizingly slowly. She used one hand to push her shirt over her chest and gingerly dragged her nails down the center of her body. Max returned her kiss at first but eventually had to break away, moaning breathily through broken whimpers. Her head turned away from Chloe and she tried to catch her breath. Her heart was pounding so hard it actually hurt a little and she swallowed thickly before whining, "S-Stop teasing me!"
Chloe felt something hot and tingly build up within her at Max's moan and she laughed quietly when she turned away from her. She moved her hips harder into her. She leaned in close to her ear to whisper, "Impatient, I see. Not a fan of foreplay?" She brought her hand up to her chest and slipped it under her bra, biting her lip slightly when she felt her breast in her palm. She started with slow massages, watching Max to see how she reacted.
Max's eyes widened before she erupted in another chorus of watery moans and disjointed pleas. She writhed beneath Chloe's careful hand. "Please!" A small cry tumbled out of her mouth in her state of helplessness. She pulled Chloe impossibly closer to her, yearning to feel more of her. "I want…" Another cry rendered her unable to finish her sentence, this one a little louder than the last. She could feel how shaky her legs were and knew that had they of been standing up, she would have fallen a long time ago.
Chloe's heart beat incredibly faster and she couldn't find the effort to breathe properly. Utterly mesmerized by Max, she barely noticed her plea and only came crashing back into her body when she pulled her closer to her. She let out an unintentional moan when she was forced flush against her and she found her lips near Max's ear. Her hand kneaded into harder due to the shivers that traveled through her when Max's cry rang in her ear. She couldn't raise her voice above a whisper when she spoke, "What do you want, Max..?" She kissed under her ear, still keeping her hips moving against her. "Tell me…"
Rasping moans spilled from Max. Shudders moved down her spine from the way Chloe whispered in her ear. She bit her lip in the embarrassment and timidness that was clearly showing itself in the ruddy hue of her face. But she summoned every ounce of willpower she had and, with considerable thanks to the moans shoving themselves between the words, said softly, "I w-want… mm… I want you, Chloe…"
"You have me." Chloe didn't give a second thought to the words and she didn't want to take them back. Max couldn't help but smile weakly at the words. She wanted to pull her in and kiss her again, but she knew she was too feeble to do so. Chloe guided her hand from under Max's bra to the edge of her shirt bunched up over her chest and tugged lightly. She swallowed thickly and leaned over to try and catch her gaze. "M-may I?" She couldn't help the stutter, much too nervous about doing everything right with Max. She could feel a small blush rising in her cheeks.
When Chloe's hands found her shirt, Max did return her gaze and nodded silently, gulping nervously. She leaned up and helped Chloe pull the article of clothing off of her and blushed, harder than before if that was even possible.
A light, shaky laugh chuckled passed Chloe's lips. "I've seen you in your bra before, Max. Not even a few hours ago, I might add." She attempted a reassuring smile, hoping that her nervousness gathering in her didn't show. "I'm letting you set the pace, okay?" She kissed her lovingly, her lower half slowing for just a few moments to focus all her love and energy into the liplock.
Max nodded thankfully and returned her kiss with as much affection and passion as she gave her, but she couldn't ignore the burning embers of heat between her legs. At one point, she whimpered quietly by accident, turning even redder.
Chloe heard the whimper, obviously, and backed out of the kiss with a semi-worried expression. The red coloring Max's face made her eyebrows inch together. Though she could suspect the cause of the sound, she still asked, "Are you okay?"
Max nodded quietly and forced an assuring smile. "Just...um…" She gestured to that infamous spot between her legs with a nervous motion. Averting my gaze from Chloe in mortification, she bit her lip.
Chloe glanced down. Her eyes widened a bit in realization and she nodded. "Right, I thought so. Just… wanted to be sure, you know?" She retracted just a bit. "Do you, ah, want me your bra off or just… like, jump right into it?" She started stumbling over her words. "I mean, I don't mind taking it slow. That's what I want to do, but like I said, I want you to set the pace because I'm pretty sure you're still a virgin an- Unless you're not, I don't want to offend you or anything-"
Max laughed quietly at the clear nervousness in Chloe's voice. She placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Chloe, slow down!" She chuckled, and Chloe's mouth instantly snapped shut at her request. "I am, uh, still a virgin. And I" - she smiled shyly here - "I do want you to be my first. And so…" She reached behind herself and carefully unclasped her bra, blushing as it fell down her arms to reveal her creamy white bosom, looking down at the floor as her face heated up even more. She tossed her bra somewhere off to the side and bit her lip again, swallowing timidly.
Chloe's heart was racing a mile a minute. She listened to Max intently, giving a short laugh of her own. When she saw where her hands were going, she bit her lip and averted her gaze for a second. It's not until she saw her toss her bra away that she looked back at her. In the light being cast from the laptop, she was able to take in her flushed skin and freckles dusted across her chest. She huffed a small laugh when she saw that, despite fading and growing less frequent, they reach her breast. Her eyes trailed upward until she found her face again and she reached up tentatively to touch her chin to tilt her head back up. "Fun fact… I've never been this nervous before."
Max tried to smiled back at her, but it's weak and anxious. "Y-yeah?" She chuckled dryly. "Same here." Despite this, she took one of Chloe's hands and raised it hesitantly to her chest, breathing quicker at the prospect of the feeling.
Chloe was taken back a bit by her forwardness, but she didn't argue. She gave her a gentle squeeze, running her thumb over her hardened peak. She tugged and rolled it tenderly between her fingers. She didn't miss Max's hitching breath and went in to kiss her deeply, a sensual passion building in the process. She parted her lips a bit, her breathing pattern matching hers. An extended moan is released from Max. She pressed close to Chloe and touched her lips with hers softly, eventually leaning closer to be able to kiss her fully. The burning fire between her legs worsens.
Eventually, Chloe mustered up the courage to travel down across her jaw and neck. Coming back to that special spot she gave her a playful nip before continuing on. She laid light kisses down the valley of her chest and, with a brief glance at Max, she moved over to one breast and flicked her tongue at her nipple once, twice, before drawing it between her lips and suckling lightly. Max moaned at each one of the actions played upon her, but when Chloe's mouth made it way to her breast she groaned and pulled her head closer to the area, tilting her head back. She panted softly. "Oh, Chloe…"
Chloe closed her eyes and let Max's voice fill her ears while her hand started work on her other breast. She swirled her tongue around her tip, moaning lowly. She took note of what she could tell Max enjoyed. Chloe pulled away from Max's pert nipple and bit softly at the flesh above it. She left a scatter of kisses along her mound, slowly making her way over to her opposing breast to give it the same treatment.
Max's moans morphed into pleasured cries, and she pressed her face into Chloe's hair while whimpering her name. The throbbing sensation forming at her core is growing unbearable, as was shown in her short cries, and she propelled her breast further into Chloe's mouth. "Ahh...please…"
Chloe picked her head up after a moment, her tongue flicking one last time at her peak before she glanced down at her pants. She looked at Max for confirmation while her hand went down to her jeans. She hooked a finger into her belt loops and pulled a bit. "Do you want to? Or should I..?"
Max looked down at Chloe and nodded once, reaching down to help Chloe unbutton and unzip her pants. She slid them off carefully and shiver at the sudden chill, and the way the cool air slid up against her heat through the fabric of her underwear. She whined quietly.
"It's okay. I'll take care of you." With a set jaw, Chloe allowed her hand to slink down between Max's legs over her underwear. She bit her lip when she could feel the dampened material and she could only imagine how wet she was under them. She applied pressure like she did before with moderately paced circles being drawn in the general area of her small nub.
Max leaned back and her head hit the floor, with her moaning loudly. "Aah… Ch-Che…" The nickname slipped out of her mouth without her being able to help it. She jerked her hips into Chloe's hand. She groaned roughly and writhed around in her burn for more pleasure.
Chloe gasped softly at Max squirming around under her. She moved her hand a minute later, letting it go snakelike into her underwear. The heat emanating from her core is increased on the inside, nothing compared to to how it felt through the suffocating clothing that was still hiding her more intimate parts from her. She kept her eyes trained on Max's face as she finally glided her fingers between her folds. She moaned gutturally at the sensation of her wetness coating her fingers. "Fuck…" she mumbled. She moved down to her entrance and pressed into her, the silent question clear.
Max moaned louder and nodded again, yearning for Chloe's finger to be inside of her. She silently voiced this need, blushing deeper, and bucked her hips once more against Chloe's hand.
Chloe worried her lower lip between her teeth and started with thrusting one finger into Max. Max's heat enveloping her made her groan and she ducked her head to nuzzle into her. She curved her finger against the roof of her innermost area, seeking out that spot that she wished would make Max say her name the way she did before. She bit softly at Max's flesh, her tongue occasionally making an appearance to soothe any pain.
When Chloe;s finger entered her, Max's eyes widened and she turned darker from the foreign feeling. She moaned. As soon as her finger made contact with her g-spot, she gasped and cried out - "Chloe!" - the sound dissipating into a long moan. She moved her hips so Chloe's fingers thrusted into the same spot again, shivers running up and down her spine.
Chloe's smiled a bit, knowing she'd found it, and tried to find it again. It took a couple tries but she located it and grazed her finger over it before adding pressure. She moved a little faster and harder with her tongue poking out in concentration. Max thrashed around, crying out louder and louder with each thrust Chloe gave. Her hands moved to tangle themselves in her hair, tugging on her blue locks a little roughly to pull Chloe closer.
Chloe added a second finger after a while, working hard to pleasure Max as much as she could. She wondered momentarily if Max would have any objections to her mouth being down there as well, the question of her taste worming its way into her thoughts. She licked her lips absently. With another thrust into Max, she spoke, "Max, do… Do you want me to..?" She didn't know how to word it properly and simply looked down at where her hand was working. "Uh… Shit…"
Max turned her gaze on Chloe, trying to focus on her. Had she of been in her normal state, she would probably of known what Chloe was asking her. But in her condition of arousal, she couldn't make basic connections. "W-what?"
"My, erm…" Chloe laughed awkwardly, breathlessly. "I don't really know how else to word it, so I'll just say it." She swallowed dryly and didn't try to meet Max's eyes yet. "Do you...want my tongue there? Like, down there?" She forced herself to look up at her here. There was a small blush spreading across her face.
As soon as the request registered, Max considered for only a moment. The prospect already had her back arching and she grit her teeth before sighing out, "Oh, god… yes please…"
Chloe couldn't help but laugh at Max's preceding reaction. She took her fingers from Max and grasped her underwear in her hands. She pulled them down to her ankles and gently eased her legs apart once they were all the way off. She placed herself so she was lined up with her lower lips. Exhaling softly, Chloe reached for her and hooked her hands under her knees to pull her closer. She took in Max's natural musk, a mix of jade blossom soap and arousal, the smell flooding her nostrils and making her heart skip a few times in her chest. She moved in and started prodding her tongue about Max's slit before she could second guess herself. As she thought, Max's excitement coated her tongue and made her moan unintentionally. She forced her tongue harder against her, desperate to taste more of her.
Max mewled loudly, the pleasure overwhelming her senses. Before she knew what she was doing, her hands were pressing Chloe's head closer to her entrance in need and she was gasping out her name every few seconds by then. "Chloe… ah..! Yes…"
Chloe's body rolled with a shudder caused by Max's sounds. She delved deeper into her thanks to her hands, the tip of her tongue wriggling along Max's entrance. She flattened her tongue out and dragged it lazily up, ending the action with a harsh lap against her nub that sent Max's mind reeling and leaving her throat raw with innocent moans and low cries. She eventually closed her lips over her clit and started suckling on it. She alternated between this and her tongue flicking and circling around it. She hummed softly, which sent mild vibrations through Max's heat.
Max's head pressed against the floor as her back arched deeply. She called Chloe's name lustily, thrashing around amateurishly. Thanks to this being her first time, her climax was already raging inside of her and ready to blow. Chloe penetrated her with the same two fingers as before, taking a few seconds to seek out that special sweet spot again. She could sense her own arousal gathering in the pits of her stomach, aided by the moans escaping Max. From the way her body moved, and how her breath caught and noises became more breathless and high pitched, she could tell Max was growing closer and closer to that infamous edge. She pounded into her and moved her tongue faster.
Even before she could register it, Max's orgasm rammed into her with indescribable force. Immense pleasure exploded in her abdomen and spread out like warm honey, showering her in this new wonderful feeling of bliss in bountiful amounts. She pressed Chloe closer to her heat in the last few seconds before sensitivity took hold, forcing her to fall limp and breathless.
Chloe assisted her in riding out her orgasm, enrapture by the way she writhed and cried out. The way her nails scratched against her scalp and she forced her closer and how her taste and scent increased when her precipice hit. It hit her hard and she felt something stirring inside of her. She lapped up what of Max's fluids that she could as she withdrew of her and left a few light kisses across her slit and waist, her eyes finding Max's satisfied expression as she traveled up.
As she caught her breath and words started flowing back into her head, Max sighed contentedly and looked down at Chloe. "T-Thanks…" She said quietly, the words barely a whisper. Her fingers loosened in Chloe's hair, but they don't leave.
Chloe smiled at her, mimicking the action of Max's hands and letting her own find her hair. "You're welcome…" She went up to kiss Max lightly before resting her forehead against hers.
Max's breathing began to slow along with her heartbeat. She sighed softly and closed her eyes, tiredness already setting in from her peak. She hugged Chloe close to her and breathed her in.
"I think you're the first girl I've known to grow so tired after one orgasm." Chloe teased, wrapping an arm around Max. She kissed her neck, but it quickly turned into her giving Max a fresh love bite by sucking, biting, and licking at her pulse. She backed away to admire her work and the bruising color made her smile a bit.
Max couldn't find the energy to reply, only laughing quietly. But when Chloe's lips found her neck she gasped, trying not to show how much that affected her. She buried her face into Chloe's shoulder.
Chloe's arm tightened around her for a second. "Do you wanna move to the bed?" She didn't fight the grin crossing her face. "Though I should've asked you that ten minutes ago."
Max tried to roll her eyes, but her blush gave away her position. "Sure. Let's." She sat up and stretched, moving to pull her clothes back on.
Chloe chuckled and moved with her, reclining back on her knees. She started to say to Max that she didn't have to get dressed, but she felt like that sounded creepier than she would intend, and so her mouth shut again. After she pulled on her clothes, Max stepped over to the bed, settling tiredly on one side of it. She waited patiently for Chloe to join her.
Chloe stood near the bed after demolishing what was left of their pillow fort and cleaning up what was left of their little picnic. She grabbed a couple pillows and a blanket. She tossed the pillows to the head of the bed and the blanket over Max's head with a small laugh as she moved towards her. She climbed onto the bed after and collapsed onto her back, turning over to watch Max with her arms outstretched.
Max squeaked in surprise as the blanket fell over her and tossed it off, laughing with Chloe as she turned on her side to look at her. "Jerk." Seeing how Chloe's hand was positioned, she took it with both of hers and rested it on her cheek. She smiled softly at her.
"But I'm your jerk." Chloe said with a grin. She pulled Max closer to her and kissed her chastely, moving their hands up so her fingers can brush against Max's hair. "I love you."
Shivers tumbled down Max's spine, springing from Chloe's fingertips. A rosy blush dusted along her cheeks again and her smile widened. "I love you, too." Her arms moved around Chloe to feel as much of her as possible, giving her another kiss of affection.
"Getting handsy, I see." Chloe joked with a wink. She let the warm, churning feeling in her stomach and chest filter into the kiss, playfully nipping at Max's lower lip with a short laugh.
Max's blush deepened and she gasped quietly as Chloe's teeth met her lip, unable to hold back the sound. She shut her eyes and exhaled with her arms tightening around Chloe.
Chloe released her after a few moments. One last small kiss and she turned her head away to yawn. "Jeez, I'm fucking beat." She looked at Max. "Want to borrow a set of Rachel's pajamas?"
Seeing Chloe yawn made Max follow suit and she sat up to rub her eyes. "Sure," she replied, her voice a little weighed down by sudden sleepiness.
"Come see if you can find anything." Chloe said, gesturing to her closet and getting up from her bed. She wandered over to it and opened it, moving a few things aside.
Max followed Chloe to the closet and surveyed the articles of clothing, picking out the first thing that looked like it would fit her. She wasn't picky. She thanked Chloe and moved off to the side to be able to pull her clothes off again and, even though Chloe had just given her an orgasm, she couldn't help but feel self-conscious again and blushed brightly. She pulled the pajamas on as fast as she could and moved back to the bed, yawning again.
Chloe kept her eyes respectfully trained on her closet. She hoped that it helped make the atmosphere less awkward as she grabbed a t-shirt. She stripped down to her underwear and threw the shirt on, unclasping her bra afterwards and slipping it out from under the shirt. She tossed it towards the dirty clothes. She looked down at her boxer clad lower half and bit her lip. "I, uh, hope you don't mind… I don't usually wear pajama pants to bed. But if it bothers you, I'll grab a pair…" She was rambling again, and it was clear that she was aware of it by the way she scratched her head awkwardly.
Max laughed nervously. Trying to keep her blush under control - which doesn't work as well as she had hoped - she shook her head. "No, it's cool. I don't mind."
Chloe nodded and got into the bed, getting under the covers with Max and pulling her close to her. A nervous smile has graced her lips, and it occurred to her that this was one of the few times she shared a bed with a girl she genuinely loved. She cuddled into Max and sighed tiredly.
Max pressed back into her and savored her warmth. Her breaths were already lengthening as her comfort grew, and that moment seemed as natural and perfect as anything. She smiled as she began to slip into a warm sleep. But inspiration arose in her thoughts and she tilted her head back a bit to look at Chloe with a proud smile. "I think I have a nickname for you."
"Oh, really?" Chloe said huskily. She opened an eye she didn't even realize had closed and returned Max's smile. "What is it?"
Max snuggled into Chloe's chest again, loving the way Chloe's arm instinctively wrapped around her protectively. She loved the position they were in and the way Chloe's warmth cradled her into drowsiness. She especially loved the way Chloe's faint smell of Axe, mint cigarettes, and weed brought ease to her thoughts. With a small laugh, before falling asleep, she said one word.
"Chlobear."
