Is This Really Happening?

Emy, Tegan, and Sara test the waters of their relationship

"Babe," Sara shook Emy gently, "You need to drink some water. Here."

Emy opened her eyes and Sara was sitting on the couch next to her, glass of water in hand.

"Thanks." Emy grabbed the glass and took a few sips.

"Are you okay?" Sara brushed Emy's bangs back, "You fainted twice in five minutes."

"I think I'm okay." Emy tried to sit up fully, but immediately rested back against the back of the couch due to her head swimming at the sudden movement.

"Drink more water before sitting up babe." Sara continued to run her fingers through Emy's hair in an attempt to sooth her.

"So it wasn't a dream?" Emy spoke quietly, still a bit in shock.

"No," Sara smiled sweetly, "It wasn't a dream."

"Good." A small smile crept across Emy's face.

"Of course it's good," Tegan spoke up from her place next to the couch, "I'm involved. Whenever I'm involved it's good."

"I won't argue with that." Emy chuckled, her faintness gone.

"So," Sara glanced over at Tegan and then back to Emy, "What do we do now?"

"Three way make out session." Tegan joked.

"Haha." Sara responded dryly, "I mean really, what do we do now? What happens next? Do we just pretend this is normal?"

"I think we just take it one step at a time. Don't rush anything." Emy spoke calmly, still leaning back on the couch.

"I second that." Sara nodded her agreement, "Although it is weird that my sister likes my girlfriend."

"You mean that your sister-girlfriend likes your girlfriend." Tegan corrected with a wink.

"And your girlfriend likes twins." Emy smiled, easing into the humor of the situation.

"Have you seen us?" Tegan smirked at her, "Nobody can blame you for liking both of us."

They joked back and forth for a few minutes, trying to normalize the situation as best as possible. Emy spent most of it silent, just watching the playful flirting between her twins. After a couple of minutes, Sara noticed her silence.

"Is the joking making you nervous?" Sara sounded concerned.

"No, no." Emy shook her head and smiled, "I am just enjoying watching the two of you flirting is all."

"I know something you'd enjoy watching more." Tegan winked playfully.

Emy felt her face heating up as she imagined some of the things Tegan might be referring to.

"I like that idea." Sara motioned for Tegan to sit down next to her on the couch.

Emy watched as Tegan walked over from where she had been standing at the side of couch and sat down next to Sara. She smiled when Tegan moved her head shyly toward her twin. And she felt a familiar warmth when Sara closed the gap. Her eyelids grew heavy with lust as Sara used her tongue to ask Tegan for permission. She heard herself gasp when she saw Tegan pull away to look at her.

"She definitely liked that." Tegan smirked as Emy blushed bright red.

"Maybe she should get a turn then." Sara winked at her twin before getting up off the couch, leaving her sister and her girlfriend to make the next move.

Tegan scooted over and brushed Emy's loose bangs back out of her face. Emy's brain reeled as she tried to process what was actually happening. And before she knew it Tegan's soft lips were being gently pressed against her own, eliciting an equally soft moan. Tegan didn't push the kiss further, pulling away after a few short, but at the same time long, seconds.

"That was hot." Sara grinned and raised her eyebrows suggestively.

"Yeah." Emy breathed out.

"It's cause I was involved." Tegan grinned cockily and winked at her sister.

"The only way you could be cockier right now is if you had one." Sara rolled her eyes and walked to the kitchen.

"That's very true." Tegan got up and followed her into the kitchen.

"We have no coke." Sara called to Emy after looking through the fridge.

"And?"

"I wanted a rum and coke." Sara pouted.

"Then go to the store. It's five minutes away." Emy rolled her eyes as Sara continued to pout.

"Fine fine." Sara grabbed her jacket from the coat rack and opened the front door, "Behave yourselves."

"We will." Tegan was unconvincing.

"Just don't get naked without me." Sara winked and stepped outside the apartment.

Tegan poured to glasses of water and returned to the couch.

"So," Tegan handed a glass to Emy, "That was fun."

Emy smiled nervously and accepted the glass.

"We should do it again sometime." Emy chuckled and nodded.

"Can, uh, can I ask you something?" Emy questioned after taking a sip of water.

"Of course."

"Why do you like me?" Emy realized she sounded self-deprecating, "I mean, why do you like me when you already like Sara?"

"I'm not sure," Tegan shrugged, "I guess I'm just drawn to you. You're sweet, funny, gorgeous…the list goes on."

Emy blushed again.

"I think I like you for the same reasons Sara does: because you're perfect."

Emy inched closer to Tegan and placed her right hand behind Tegan's head, gently pulling her toward her, "If I'm perfect than what are you?" She didn't wait for a response. She just pressed their lips together. Tegan let her control the pace of the kiss and the intensity, and Emy took advantage of that. It started out slow as Emy built up her confidence. It didn't take long for her to get the confidence to beg Tegan for entrance. As soon as her tongue entered Tegan's mouth the kiss became frantic. Both women letting go of any restraints they had around Sara. Only when Tegan reached for the hem of Emy's shirt did Emy break the kiss.

"No getting naked." Emy scolded playfully, "Remember?"

Tegan laughed and planted a quick peck on Emy's mouth, "Then we should probably not continue this."

They spent the next few minutes in silence, just resting against each other.

"Hey guys." Sara greeted as she walked through the door, "Who wants a drink?"
