A/N: I'm going on holiday this week to the wilds of Scotland so there will be no writing until I'm back in October. THIS my dear readers is my gift to you as I'm pushed out of the door with my bags. I'm hoping for oodles of reviews and / or ice cream to be waiting for me when I get back...Enjoy ;-)
They were laid along the length of the sofa, Alex propping herself up with an elbow as she leaned down to kiss Piper's neck, just beneath her ear.
"Mmmm, you smell so good."
Piper hummed and ran her hand up along the lithe body lying on top of her. "I think I would be a bad advert for my own company if I didn't."
"Like, really, really good." Alex nuzzled her nose into the blonde hair on the cushion before moving back to the flawless skin along her neck and kissing her again. Leaning back slightly, she stroked her index finger along Piper's jaw as she spoke again.
"You know, after you left Paris….I could smell you on our bed sheets. I refused to let housekeeping change them and pulled the covers back all the time as though it might keep a part of you in there for me to be close to." Alex could feel Piper's gaze on her as she spoke, but she avoided her piercing blue eyes and watched her fingertip trace over the angular features of the woman beneath her.
"Eventually, it faded. Of course it would. I was sleeping with it so much your scent became mine and I searched high and low for anything that might have it. You'd packed everything though. Not a single trace of you remained."
Piper reached up to lift Alex's eyes to meet hers. "I'm sorry."
"It was just a memory. When I came home last night and got in my bed, I could smell you again. I got that same sense of wanting to somehow keep it there." Alex shook her head. "It's weird that I get that feeling from smelling you….. Like I need to savour it."
"Because you're worried about me leaving?" Piper stroked the curtain of dark hair that obscured Alex's face behind her ear tenderly.
"I don't know. I guess. Just….don't get freaked out if I'm constantly inhaling you OK?" Alex smiled, a little embarrassed at her sudden confession.
"I won't…..I like it actually…It's cute." Piper tapped the end of Alex's nose with her finger to punctuate the description.
"Cute? Really?!" Alex sat back on her haunches and moved her hands to Piper's ribs to tickle her.
"Alex no…..don't go there Alex…..ALEX!" Piper wriggled to try and get free as Alex tickled her.
"What, you want more?... You still think I'm cute?... How about now?"
"Argh! Alex!...I give up, I give up! My poor ribs!" Piper gasped.
"Who's the winner?"
"You are!" Piper shrieked as Alex poked her in the ribs once more.
"That's right toots!" Alex grinned as she leaned down to kiss Piper again. Her lips were stopped with Piper's finger before they reached their intended destination. Piper wriggled to sit up opposite her now.
"Did you just…did you just call me 'toots'?" She raised an eyebrow and a smirk spread across her face. "Oh, that's so CUTE!" Piper batted her eyelashes and leapt up off the sofa.
"It's not a pet name, don't get excited!" Alex shouted after her as she disappeared to the bathroom. She shook her head at how the night had turned out. It had been scary being so open about their feelings, but she felt like a weight had been lifted. She looked at the time and saw it was getting late. Not wanting Piper to leave, she also didn't want to presume that she might stay either. It's not like they really planned any of this. Picking up the glasses and the rest of the wine, she put them in the kitchen as Piper returned.
"Listen, I can get you a cab if you need to get back home. We've both drunk too much wine to be driving, so….."
"You want me to leave?" Piper's eyebrows quirked up.
"No….I really want you to stay. I just didn't want to assume anything…." Alex struggled to find the right mix of words to let Piper know she was under no obligation or expectation to stay the night. "Let me start this again…" Alex pulled Piper towards her by her hips and kissed her on the lips before leaning back a little.
"Pipes, would you like to stay with me tonight?"
"You mean 'Pipes, will you sleep on my pillow so I can smell you for the rest of the week?" Piper chuckled before leaning in to capture Alex's lips with her own, pulling her lips across the brunette's lower lip and releasing it before doing the same again and pressing her mouth against Alex's as she pushed the taller woman back against fridge.
"Well, that would be an added bonus I'm not gonna lie." Alex spoke against Piper's mouth before Piper ran her tongue across her lips causing Alex to smile.
"I'm all for adding a bonus." The blonde's tone was much lower and she moved her hands just underneath the hem of the band shirt that Alex was wearing and barely scratched her nails briefly over her waist.
"Mmmmm. I don't need to call a cab then?" Alex rasped before she bent to run her lips along Piper's throat.
The hem of the t-shirt raised as Piper moved her hands higher to rake her fingertips with feather light touches over the smooth skin of Alex's ribs. "That depends on whether you want company." Piper moved her fingers up to run them over the sides of Alex's bra, moving them across the lace achingly close to where her nipples were doing an exceptionally poor job of hide and seek behind the sheer lace.
"I'm feeling quite sociable as it happens." Alex gasped a few octaves higher as she felt Piper rub her fingers over her nipples roughly. She reached down to catch Piper's wrist before things progressed any further (not that she wasn't aching for that already by this point). Leaning close to capture Piper's lips again in a series of short and wet kisses, Alex spoke against Piper's shallow breaths.
"Let's go to bed, shall we?"
Piper smiled, suddenly shy as she nodded and let Alex lead her by the hand and they headed up to her room.
"I haven't brought anything with me…" Piper looked around and sat on the bed as Alex went to get washed in her en-suite.
"You can use whatever you want of mine. There's already a toothbrush here for you and I have a sneaky suspicion you already know your way around my drawers to find yourself something to sleep in." Alex shouted back from the sink.
"It's not the same when the owner is home though."
"Oh, I get it." Alex came back into the room and reached for some sleep shorts and a vest top from her drawers. "You want to roleplay the masked intruder and I'm the shocked housewife who returns home early to find you sniffing my underwear, is that it?" Alex brought her hand to her chest in mock horror before she unfastened her jeans and shimmied them down her legs as Piper watched.
"You'd be a terrible housewife." Piper stuck her tongue out as she went into the bathroom to wash and change.
Alex laughed and went downstairs to pick up a couple of bottles of water from the fridge and lock everything up before coming back upstairs. Putting one by the bed and drinking from the other, she pulled the overs over her as Piper came back in. The blonde was wearing the same camisole set that she put on the other night when she took a photo and sent it to Alex.
"Mmmm, so hot." Alex groaned and put her water down as Piper switched the light off and walked to get into the bed. "And so mine." Alex quickly leaned over and pulled a squealing Piper to lie on top of her under the bed sheets.
Piper hummed in approval as she stroked the hair from Alex's face. "Beautiful again." Piper leaned down to peck her on the lips as Alex smiled back up at her, brushing her blonde hair back as it hung down to tickle her face.
"You OK?" Alex wanted to make sure she was comfortable with them lying together like this.
"Yeah. You?" Piper smiled nervously. She was suddenly very aware of their bare legs touching as they lay close to each other under the bed sheets.
"Never better." Alex looked into the depths of the ocean pools above her and sensed that Piper was really OK.
Piper pressed her lips together slowly and licked them before brushing them against Alex's, moving away when the brunette tried to capture her into a fuller kiss. Alex moved her hands down over the silky material covering Piper's ass and rested them there. "Still OK?" She rasped. Piper smiled and leaned down to nip at the right lobe of Alex's ear before breathing her reply. "Still OK…..Kiss me." Alex moved one hand up to push her fingers into the hair at the base of Piper's neck and pulled her lips towards her waiting mouth. Tenderness was pushed to the back of their minds as Piper pressed her lips harder still against Alex's, moaning as Alex swiped her tongue across them briefly as Piper moved herself to rest between Alex's legs. They fought for control of the kiss as Alex pushed her tongue inside Piper's mouth, moving to slide against the equally keen muscle that was seeking out it's partner in the tango with a sense of urgency that made them both breathless.
Alex ran her hand up and down the silky shorts that her partner was wearing, squeezing her ass every so often. She could feel Piper reacting to her touch and pressing herself a little more into the heated core between Alex's legs. As she felt Piper's pubic bone lightly nudging her clit through her own shorts, Alex broke away from the kiss to revel in the butterflies that the sensation sent to her belly. "Fuck." She whispered before going back to devouring the blonde's smirking lips. Piper altered her position slightly so her weight was rested on one side so she could move her hands down to massage the needy breasts of the woman writhing below her through her top.
"Mmmm, a perfect handful." Piper whispered into Alex's mouth as she gasped when Piper pinched her straining nipple quickly.
"Yes...you are." Alex panted back as Piper rubbed her fingers over the stiffened nub repeatedly. Alex was trying to keep her eyes open to watch Piper's movements and see that she was comfortable with everything they were doing. She only saw darkened desire in the azure eyes in front of her when she did and she dropped her head back onto the pillow, allowing her eyes to roll back into her head as Piper moved away from her lips and trailed down her neck before drawing her fingertips down the length of Alex's straining torso to the hem of her t-shirt. Suddenly aware that Piper had sat back from her a little, Alex quickly opened her eyes to check on the blonde.
"Are you OK?" Alex asked, concern creased into her brow, despite her shallow breaths as she sat up on her elbows a little.
"Yeah." Piper smiled as she reached out again and stroked her fingers underneath the hem of Alex's top. "I just wanted to take this off." She pushed the material up inch by torturous inch, enjoying the reveal of pale goose bumps along the taught stomach and contracting ribs of the woman beneath her. As she pushed it over her swollen breasts, they ached to be touched and Alex's nipples were begging to be caressed and teased with her tongue. Piper ran her thumbs over the top of them, focused on watching them react to her every touch and movement as Alex watched her through hooded eyes. The brunette was more than a little turned on at this point and the mix of lust-filled kisses with slow teasing was turning the heat up in the room to the point where Alex wanted to lose all barriers between them and spend the night with their bodies sweating together in entwined ecstasy. She was in enough control of her libido to be mindful of watching any cue that Piper was uneasy with anything they were doing and was happy to let the woman kneeling between her legs control the pace.
Piper's touch became gradually rougher as she palmed her breasts with more force and tweaked her nipples before leaning down to take one into her mouth and lave her tongue around the areola. Alex dropped her head back again, arching her back off the bed to press herself into Piper's warm mouth and whimpering when Piper slowed down and placed little kisses all around the underside of her breasts. Alex needed to touch Piper and sat up to push Piper upright again, smiling as she lifted her shirt over her head and dropped it by the side of the bed. She moved her hands to rest on Piper's hips and moved her thumbs in small circles up and down her hips towards her centre slightly while watching Piper before sliding her palms down to rest on her thighs.
"C'mere. I want to feel you." Alex gently pulled the backs of Piper's legs as the blonde followed her movements until she was straddling Alex's waist as they sat up in the bed. Alex brought her face toward her for a tender kiss, with Piper moving her hands into Alex's hair while wrapping her arms around her shoulders. Alex smiled into the kiss as she felt Piper pressing her core towards her stomach, so she began to run her hands up the camisole top towards Piper's perky breasts as their kiss deepened. Taking her time, Alex grazed her thumbs closer to the nipples that were already straining through the thin material. She pulled at the material of the top, drawing it across the sensitive peaks slowly as Piper moaned into her mouth. Their kissing became less frantic as both of them concentrated on the sensations that Piper was feeling from Alex's teasing. Eventually Alex moved her fingertips over the top of them, so quickly that Piper wasn't sure she hadn't been willing it so much she dreamed it. Feeling the blonde buck her centre against her, Alex turned things up a notch and moved her hands up to properly palm Piper's breasts fully now, squeezing them in her palms and catching the nipples between her fingers as she moved more quickly across the silk.
Alex broke the kiss to move her lips across Piper's jaw and up to her ear, where she quickly flicked her wet tongue near to her ear canal to increases the sensations when she whispered to her. "Do you want me to take this off?" She pulled slightly at the camisole top to reinforce the question.
"No…Kiss me again." Piper whispered back as she pulled the top down and Alex sensed the confidence was gone a little, berating herself a little for pushing things too much before gently sucking Piper's lips into her mouth tenderly. Her hands had dropped back to Piper's waist, an involuntary reaction to sensing Piper's hesitance, but a safe zone nonetheless. Piper moved to take hold of them and move them back up and onto her breasts. "I don't want you to stop."
"Are you sure?" Alex breathed, ready to stop everything if she heard it confirmed.
"I'm sure. Just pretend like that bit of silk isn't there and I'll be very sure." Piper's voice dropped lower at the end, reinforcing her want and Alex was buoyed by the feeling she got from it. Piper moved her hands to palm Alex's breasts roughly to go back to the heightened arousal that they were in only moments ago and Alex pushed her tongue into Piper's mouth again to make sure of it. After a few minutes, Alex pulled away to move her mouth down over Piper's breasts. She wet the material around her nipples enough that the sensation caused Piper to loll her head back, before Alex was gently biting them and licking the material again.
"Fuck Alex…..that feels sooo good." Piper mussed the dark hair through her fingers as she pulled Alex closer to her chest, searching for more. Her head was thrown back, pushing her erect nipples out as though they were seeking more contact themselves. Alex reached back and picked up a bottle of the cold water she got from the fridge earlier, rolling it across Piper's breasts and dragging the condensation covered plastic up against her swollen buds. As the ribbed moulding brought more friction to the movement and the cold droplets soaked into the silk, Alex became mesmerised by Piper's body reacting to the actions as she sucked on the other breast through lidded eyes. Piper was panting for more now and pressing herself against Alex for more contact on her sensitive tits as well as her throbbing core. Alex wanted to draw it out a little and make sure they both enjoyed the moment, quickly unscrewing the cap before pouring a generous glug into her mouth and spilling it over each of Piper's breasts.
"FUCK!" Piper cried out from shock as well as pleasure as Alex massaged the wet material over her straining tits and pinched the nipple before leaning back down to suck it into her mouth lustfully and run her teeth over them one at a time while her hand massaged the other.
"Oh my God Alex…." She bucked her hips again and gyrated them slightly against Alex's stomach as she sought more friction. Alex slowly laid back on the bed, moving her hands down to rest on Piper's thighs again. As the blonde opened her eyes to watch what her lover was doing, Alex moved her hands up the inside of her thighs gently, before running her fingertips back down. They held each other's eyes as Alex went a little higher each time. Before reaching a point where Piper got nervous, Alex smiled at her and took her hands in her own, moving them down her own stomach until they landed on her shorts.
"Take these off."
Piper smirked and moved to one side as she dragged her fingers up and down from Alex's stomach to mid-way down her thighs and back up again, brushing over Alex's hot centre each time. Finally she pushed her fingertips beneath the waist band and gently pulled the shorts down, revealing a smooth mound clenched between milky thighs. Pulling them all the way down, Piper dropped them at the side of the bed before moving back up to Alex on her hands and knees. "You. Are so fucking sexy." Piper blew across her nipples before sucking each one hard enough for Alex to cry out. "I'm gonna make you cum so hard…." Piper kissed up her neck towards her ear.
"Uh-uh." Alex halted her progress gently. "I know you're wet." She turned to look at Piper as she spoke. "I can feel it when you pressed your pussy against me. I want you to enjoy this just as much as I am."
Piper sighed. "Alex…..I am enjoying it. And yes, I am fucking soaked right now. But I want you to cum."
"Cumming is not my number one priority tonight. Turning you on and feeling you take pleasure from my touch is. You have no fucking clue how much you turn me on when you're moaning my name and pressing yourself up against me." Alex stroked the hair from Piper's face and brought her closer again. "I'm so wet for you right now Pipes and I want to feel how wet you are too." Alex whispered and leaned up to kiss Piper on the lips briefly before dropping her head back onto the pillow. "Let me feel you. Put your leg over me and grind against my pussy." Alex rasped Piper's eyes fluttered closed for a second before the dark haired woman pulled her down for a searing kiss as she moved her hands along her thighs again. Lost in the moment and the adrenalin that was pulsing around mostly her pussy at this point, Piper moved her leg to straddle Alex. They held each other's eyes until the blonde pushed herself against Alex's pussy with her own and Alex closed her eyes to just feel.
"Fuck Pipes….oh my God…." She moved her hands to rest on Piper's hips, pulling the blonde down harder onto her core as she felt the juices soaking through the silky shorts that her lover was still wearing. Piper watched Alex's face, entranced by the ecstasy before her as her lips were parted and she panted through them as Piper moved her hips a little.
"You like that babe?" Piper rasped as she moved herself in small circles now, seeking greater friction herself. It felt so good to be this close to Alex and this was as intimate as she'd ever been with another person since she went to prison 2 years ago. It was the most pleasure she had derived from sex since she had last slept with Alex to be honest, but she tried to push the thoughts from her mind and keep in the moment.
"Yeah….keep doing that….oh yeah….right there…." Alex moaned as Piper pressed harder, taking her own pleasure from the motions. She was torn about what to do with her hands. She wanted to push her fingers in between their pussies and feel Piper's arousal with her hands. Knowing Piper wouldn't like that, she instead kept them gripped to Piper's hips or thighs as she sought to move the blonde to a rhythm that suited them both. She was so tightly coiled from a long time without having sex and the slow build-up of tonight that she knew it wouldn't take much for her to take her orgasm quickly. Instead, she focused on not pushing to that crescendo yet and trying to help Piper enjoy this. She saw that Piper's eyes were closed in deep concentration as she focused on the sensations and knew that touching the blonde's clit in a certain way would assist her to climax at this point. Knowing she shouldn't do that either was torture for Alex as she watched the frustration build on Piper's face at not getting any closer to the holy grail she was searching for. Worried that Piper might beat herself up about this, she stroked her hand up Piper's thigh and pulled the blonde down on top of her.
"I'm missing those hot lips of yours." Alex rasped as she kissed Piper tenderly and took Piper's hand to move it between their heated centres. They both moaned as Piper's fingers came into contact with the well of moisture that had gathered between Alex's legs and it took only a few strokes through her folds and flicks of her fingers before Alex was tensing up off the bed and clenching her thighs against Piper's hand as she came. Alex took a while to come down from her high and assisted Piper to continue grinding against her as she did.
"Are you OK?" Alex whispered into her hair as Piper continued to move against her sensitive centre.
"I can't…I want to Alex. I really fucking want to." Piper sighed in frustration before rolling off Alex and lying on her back in obvious frustration.
"Hey. It's OK." Alex moved onto her side, propping her head up onto an elbow to look at the blonde beauty beside her. She stroked her fingers up and down Piper's torso and the blonde shivered after a minute.
"You want to change into another top?" Alex gestured toward the wet patches and smirked as Piper swatted her arm away from touching her breasts. "Not that I mind a wet t-shirt competition in my bed."
"Pervert. I might get some fresh shorts too if that's OK? These are just as wet, even without the fucking prize." Piper muttered as she went to get up.
"I'm obviously hurt that you aren't calling me the prize, but I'll let you off just this once." Alex winked, trying to lighten her mood a little.
Piper pulled a fresh set of sleep wear from the drawers and sighed again as she stopped in the doorway to the bathroom.
"I'm sorry, I'm ruining the post-sex smoke. I just….I really thought it would happen, you know? It always has before with you and I was so ready for that to happen tonight. And you were so good. You did everything I could have wanted. It isn't you, it's me. I'm fucking broken."
