Chapter 17: As We Lay

Emily POV

It's my turn to love Maya. It's my turn to make her feel what we've been holding back since the day we met...

I leverage my body over hers slowing our rhythm, moving my mouth to just below her ear whispering breathlessly, "You are my truth. You are my future. You, Maya, are my person…"

Its morning…

Its morning and we slept the night away. It happened now we can't turn back the hands of time. Yes, we've stolen this moment but we forgot to face one simple fact, you and I both belong to someone else as we slept the night away. But then I watch you laying there beside me, so beautiful, so sexy, so cute the little noises that your nose makes when you breathe as the sunlight shines across your sleeping face. It makes me giggle but giggle in a good way. Oh how I can't wait to wake up next to you, making love every night or whenever we want, I can't help but smile to myself. But a new day brings reality and we should go our separate ways. What a lovely night we had as we shared each other's love forgetting about all the pain we caused as we slept the night away. As we lay, we forgot about tomorrow, as we lay we didn't think about the price we'd have to pay. We should've counted up the cost but instead we got lost in the second, in the minute, in the hour. Oh Maya, what awaits us at home I can't even bare to think about. Its morning, now is it time for us to say goodbye? I know we have to face our husbands and I would never want to hurt Ryan and I know you would never intend to hurt Josh. Will they ever understand? You and I belong together not just for one night but forever…

She turns lying with her bare toffee skin exposed to me. I can't resist moving the sheet down just a bit to uncover her gorgeous bottom, so soft, so smooth; I have to touch her so I do. My hand sneaks onto the small of her back moving slowly to her roundedness, squeezing gently, pushing, pulling I have to kiss her so I do, bringing my lips to make contact with her sexy behind. I can feel her begin to stir bending her leg up as she stretches…

"Baby, what are you doing?"

"Making myself comfortable."

Narrator POV

Maya goes to turn over.

"No, please don't I'm not finished unless you want me to stop."

"Oh no. Please I have no problem waking up to you kissing my ass."

They both laugh at the literalness of what she just said.

She kisses up her behind to the small of her back to her spine, kissing all the way up to her shoulders to her neck flipping her over resting her body on top of her, a perfect fit, looking into her warm brown eyes getting lost for just a moment and then she says simply,

"Hello Maya."

"Hello Emily."

They can't help but smile the most beautiful loving affectionate smiles. Smiles only the other can make them smile. Emily kisses Maya's full lips resting them there for several seconds not wanting the kiss to change or to end…

"Em, I hate to break this up but I really need to go to the bathroom," she says with her lips against her.

Emily pulls away chuckling, "Fine but hurry up and get back here. On second thought hurry up so I can go too and then we won't need to be interrupted for a while."

Maya gets up, but before she gets too far, Emily smacks her with an open palm much to Maya's delight as she hurries to the bathroom leaving the door open so they can talk, "After our morning hello, there's something I want to show you if you think you'll be up for it."

Emily gets out of bed walking into the bathroom standing behind Maya while she washes her hands. She presses her naked body against her wrapping her arms just under her breasts looking at the two of them in the mirror…

"What are you doing?"

"Just thinking."

"About what?"

"You and me waking up together, sharing a bathroom, sharing everything," she nuzzles her nose into Maya's neck. "Ya know. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. Some people search forever for that one special kiss and I just can't believe it's happening to me with you."

After Maya dries her hands she turns around to face her baby placing her arms around her neck, "This, us, it's so tender, I can't explain it. It's like I'm dreaming but until I awake, can we make this dream last forever?" Emily nods a "yes" as Maya gushes on, "Oh Emily, I promise to cherish all the love we share."

They kiss sweetly it turns to longingly, lips pressed together, mouths opening, widening the kiss.

"Mmm, babe, we need to hold that thought for a second so I can pee."

They both giggle as Maya lets her go to do her thing returning to bed to wait for her lover. When Emily is done she enters the bedroom but stops abruptly so she can scan her from head to toe and back again in all of her beautiful sexy nudeness…

She approaches her slowly, lying on her side so she can look into her eyes expressing all of what she is feeling deep within her orbs…

"Penny for your thoughts…"

"Huh, what?"

"Where were you just then?"

A blush creeps onto her cheeks and a shy smile to go with it, "I, I keep getting lost in your eyes. I don't think I've ever looked at anyone like that before. It's like we don't have to say anything. We just feel."

"And I'd like to be feeling a lot more of you," winks Maya.

"But seriously, I don't want to go back Maya. I don't want to face them. How can we face them?" she asks falling onto her back.

Maya scoots up to her leaning her body against the side of Emily's caressing her tummy with her fingertips so gentle, so loving, so calming, "Em, it's not going to be easy. And I can't even imagine their reaction but we have to do this. We deserve this. Our love deserves this. We didn't mean for it to happen like this but it did." She too looks deeply into Emily's eyes, "Listen, we have to go soon and I don't want to waste another second thinking about what might be waiting for us when we get home. All I want to be thinking about is loving you and I do love you."

"So, was I good?"

"Oh baby, I've never loved like that before and I never want to love like that with anyone but you."

"I love you so, so much."

Maya brings her fingertips caressing up to Emily's ribcage circling, caressing up to her breasts touching her so lightly it makes Emily's breathing increase gradually. She slips two fingers over her nipple caressing, really feeling its softness pressing gently pulling lightly feeling it expand to her touch. Her fingers travel to her other nipple giving it the same sensual experience. She caresses up to her collarbone sliding up her neck with an artist's creative touch. When her fingers reach her lips she takes just her middle one to skate over those pouty pillowy lips slowly meaningfully. Her finger presses her bottom lip down while her mouth catches it before it can bounce back to her upper lip. Her lips hug Emily's keeping them cozy moving her mouth slowly expanding their opening while her hand caresses down Emily's arm to her wrist over the palm of her hand lacing their fingers together…

A few hours later…

Emily wakes up to an empty bed, a feeling she doesn't like very much. "Where's Maya?" she wonders as she stretches before getting out of bed to find her. She puts on one of the extra robes hanging in the closet before walking through the draped entryway to the stairs. Upon descending the staircase she breathes in smelling the glorious scent of breakfast. She enters the kitchen leaning against the wall watching Maya at the stove, buttering the just popped toast, scrambling the eggs, pouring the coffee and she makes it all look so effortless…

"This, I could get used to ya know."

"You're up. Good, since I bet you worked up quite the appetite."

"I did," she says approaching Maya grabbing her by the waist to kiss her with wild abandon.

"Hey, I've got food on the stove."

"Mmm. Hmm," mumbles Emily as she tries kissing down Maya's neck to no avail.

"Stop that. We can do that later. Now it's time to eat so we don't pass out when I show you what we're going to be doing next."

This interests Emily, "And what exactly is that."

"Be a good girl and I'll tell you."

"Fine. I'll set the table okay. Now tell me."

"I'd rather show you so after we eat I will."

"Oh Ms. St. Germain you do know how to get your way now don't you."

"Yeah, yeah, I think I do."

They both laugh as they enjoy breakfast and each other's company barely able to look away from each other afraid they might miss a smile or some eye sex or a wink or a blush. Maya places her hand over Emily's drawing small circles with her pinky finger just below her wrist distracting Emily in a good way. She can't stop smiling that smile only Maya can make her smile. And when they are done eating and cleaning up, Maya takes Emily's hands to guide her onto the rooftop…

At the Sullivans…

Ryan gets up checking his phone but still no call from Emily. He's a bit frustrated but decides to let it go and confront her upon her arrival home. In the meantime, he takes a shower just like any other day and heads downstairs to have breakfast and a much needed cup of coffee. After breakfast, he pours himself a second cup and does what he usually does, he gets the morning paper. But this time when he opens the door not only does he find the paper but he also finds someone holding it...

"Mrs. Fields, Pam, I mean mom, what are you doing here?"

"Is that any way to greet your mother-in-law after I just got off the longest train ride in history and took a cab right over to see my daughter and my favorite son-in-law?"

"No, I'm so sorry, come in." They embrace one another like a mother-in-law would embrace her son-in-law. "Let me get your bags. And by the way I'm your only son-in-law."

They share a laugh until Pam asks, "Where's Emily?"

"Can I get you some coffee?"

"Sure. You know how I like it."

"Milk no sugar, right?"

"Good memory Ryan, now where did you say Emily was?"

"I didn't. She had her first art show in the city last night and she hasn't gotten home yet."

"Well, I knew that, that's why I'm here. I was going to go but there was a problem with the train I was on and we had to transfer onto another one which took forever. I really wanted to see Emily in action too."

"You and me both. Josh, our next door neighbor, wanted to see his wife's paintings so we flew back from California early to surprise them but with all the weather delays we ended up missing the show and just coming home."

"So, did Emily stay in the city all night alone?" Pam asks concerned.

"Oh no, she was with Maya, Josh's wife. They stayed at a hotel together in the city." I think.

"I'm glad to hear that she wasn't alone. That makes me feel so much better about her being there."

"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing."

"Knock knock. So did you hear anything?" Josh says as he lets himself in through the slider.

"Josh, hey, this is my mother-in-law, Pam Fields."

"Oh, hi, it's nice to meet you," he says cordially extending a hand to shake hers.

"It's nice meeting you too. Ryan just told me that your wife Maya and Emily are still in the city together. It must be a relief for you knowing your wife is in such good hands. I know I feel better knowing that my daughter is in your wife's hands."

Josh is seething, trying so hard not to give in to his emotions. The last thing he wants to do is involve the in-laws, "Yeah, good hands," is all he is able to come up with.

"Well it was nice meeting you Josh, Ryan can you help me bring my things to the guest bedroom? I'm going to lie down for a while and maybe by then Emily will be back."

"Sure no problem. Josh, why don't you pour yourself a cup of coffee and I'll be right back."

"Okay thanks."

When Ryan comes back downstairs Josh lights into him, "Jesus Ryan, what the fuck is she doing here?"

"She wanted to surprise Emily at the Art Show just like you and me but there were problems with the train and she missed it so she came straight here."

"How are we supposed to confront Maya and Emily with her right upstairs?"

"We don't. We entertain my mother-in-law and ride it out until she leaves."

"Well, there was a hell of a lot of luggage you brought up for her to just ride it out."

"Look, I have no idea how long she plans on staying. All I know is that you aren't going to cause a scene. Got it!" Ryan demands with a fierce look on his face.

"Okay, okay, I got it."

Back at the Penthouse…

"Maya, where are you taking me?"

"You'll see."

Maya leads Emily onto the rooftop keeping a tight hold of her hand bringing her to the enormous pool with the retractable roof. She opens the door for Emily who drops her mouth in awe of this spectacle.

"Maya, this is amazing!" she exclaims wrapping her arms around her twirling her around in the air before letting her feet come in contact with the tiled deck.

"Yes it is!" Maya shrieks with surprise from being lifted off the ground. She wraps her arms around Emily's neck before saying, "I've already been in it. This is how I made my decision to choose you."

"What do you mean?" Emily settles with her arms around her waist.

"I swam laps until I envisioned who I wanted swimming next to me. It was you Emily. I envisioned you."

Emily swoops down capturing Maya's lips with hers kissing her thanking her for sharing her inner most thoughts and letting her experience this incredible facility with her. The kiss deepens with tongues exploring and bodies melding together. Emily kisses down Maya's neck while Maya suggests,

"Don't you want to get in? It's heated and it's fabulous."

"I do, but I want you more."

Maya pushes Emily away, drops her robe, "Then come and get more," she dares as she dives into the pool swimming to the other end.

It doesn't take but a second for Emily to ditch her robe and dive in after her. When she reaches the other end Maya silently challenges her and off they go swimming side by side in perfect sync with one another. But as they make the turn underwater, Emily has had enough. She swims with her but this time about two body lengths away from the edge, Emily swims under Maya's naked body turning her over and over until she has her vertical, pressed up against the pool wall.

"Emily, what are you doing?"

"I want you Maya. I want you right here and I'm going to take you right now."

"Oh, I see," she says with a crooked smile and serious eyebrow arch. "Then what are you waiting for? Take me. I'm yours…"
