I Like It, I Love It, I Want Some More of It
"Seriously Lucy, we just ate dinner."
"And burned like a million calories," the incorrigible brunette said with an exasperated eye roll as she rummaged through the snacks in the basket on the kitchenette counter. "Almonds? Dark chocolate? Dried fruit?" Lucy shuddered as she made a face, "Who puts these hospitality baskets together?"
"No idea," Kate replied, not bothering to explain that the snacks were all chosen by her from the list the hotel had provided, "there's fruit in the fridge."
Opening the mini fridge, Lucy said, "Pineapple? Yum! Want some?"
"No thanks," Kate replied, pulling on a robe as she crossed the room to join Lucy at the fridge, "but I'll take one of those apples."
"I knew it!" Lucy laughed, "You hardly ordered anything at dinner, and you actually ate less than me. Admit it," she smirked, "you're starving."
"Okay fine," Kate huffed as she bit into the apple, "I am hungry. But!" she added as she perched on the edge of the comfy oversized chair beside the bed, "it's all your fault."
"My fault?" The brunette challenged, licking pineapple juice from her fingers as she asked, "How is it my fault?"
Kate, transfixed by the unexpectedly erotic movements of Lucy's lips and tongue, stared and didn't respond at first, her ability to speak apparently suspended by every single sexy movement the bewitching brunette made.
"Kate?"
Clearing her throat as she snapped out of the momentary trance, the low and sexy timbre of her voice betrayed her arousal as she explained, "Because you, my sweet, looked far more delicious than anything on that menu."
"Wow," Lucy breathed, "you know exactly what to say to get a woman to take her clothes off."
"And yet you're the one still fully clothed," Kate chuckled.
"And you," Lucy replied, taking a step toward the blonde, "had the audacity to put a robe on. Do you know how hard I worked to get those layers off?"
"Come here," the blonde smiled, her hands reaching to pull the gorgeous brunette to stand in front of her. "Do you have any idea how hot you look tonight?"
Leaning into the heaven of Kate's embrace, Lucy stroked the perfect jawline with her thumbs and declared, "Not half as hot as you."
Their lips came together as Kate's hands slid up mocha thighs, pushing the hem of the white dress up as her mouth hungrily danced across Lucy's lips. Eww, I hate pineapple. Why does it taste so good on you? Fuck, I'm so into you, even what I don't like, I like when I'm with you. Tanned fingers dug into the newly exposed flesh of Lucy's supple behind, urging her to climb onto the blonde's lap as the taller woman sexily whispered, "God you're beautiful."
Lucy was blown away by the look of adoration on Kate's face, the gravelly need in her voice. She had never felt as wanted as she felt in these moments with this woman, and as she reached up to free the blonde's hair from its ponytail prison she secretly wondered how long the silky soft hair would remain free. "I love your hair down like this," the brunette sighed, running her fingers through the golden locks, "but I also get really turned on when I see it like this," she admitted, using both hands to smooth it into a mock ponytail.
Lucy groaned in contentment when Kate, spurred on by the adorable admission, captured her lips in a deep and thorough kiss. Reluctantly breaking the mind-numbing contact, Lucy leaned back and reached to pry the hem of her dress from her lover's grasp, reveling in the naked lust in the blonde's expression as she slowly pulled the garment up and over her head. Tossing it to the floor, she gasped when Kate leaned forward to capture a dusky peak with voracious lips. "Kate, please," Lucy begged as she buried her hands in luxurious flaxen locks, her hips moving in a sensual dance that rivaled anything any lover had ever performed on the blonde. Raising her head, Kate looked into gorgeous brown eyes almost black with desire, her hands moving of their own accord to palm the perfect globes. "Please what love?" She whispered, her thumbs now creating mindless, wildly stimulating friction as they circled the straining peaks.
More. I need more of you, everywhere all at once. I need your mouth, your hands, every single inch of your skin on mine. God, I'm so into you. "Your mouth," Lucy implored, her own hands closing tightly over the teasing thumbs.
"Where?" Kate asked, the single syllable dropping in the sexiest timbre, the sound as effective as any touch.
Lucy was speechless, her only reply the action of sliding her hands up to cup the blonde's face, her thumb lovingly gliding across the smooth silk of her lower lip. "Here?" Kate asked, grasping Lucy's hand and sweetly kissing the brunette's palm.
"Yes," Lucy sighed, anticipation building as Kate nibbled her way across trembling fingertips. "Here?" The blonde asked, her mouth traveling lower to suckle the pulse point that was beating rapidly at Lucy's neck.
"Yes," Lucy hissed, the pleasure making her head spin as skilled lips captured an earlobe. "Here?" Kate's voice, thick with desire, whispered in that ear. "Oh god, yes," Lucy moaned, one hand buried in the thick blonde hair while the other moved to squeeze her own breast.
Maintaining eye contact, Kate asked, "Here?" before gently prying the pinching fingers apart and reverently swirling her tongue around the painfully hardened tip. Lucy could feel Kate smiling against the sensitive skin, and she arched her back in response to the gentle strokes, gasping in satisfaction when Kate finally relented and sucked the throbbing nipple deeply into her mouth. "So good," Lucy groaned, the twitching of her hips almost painful as the pleasure shot to her center. "Please, Kate," she moaned as she reached to untie the belt at the blonde's waist, "I need more."
Lucy's passionate plea was heaven to Kate's ears, and she responded by shrugging off the robe and capturing pineapple stained lips with her own. "Mmm Lucy," she hummed, "baby you taste so good." Lucy gasped as their naked flesh collided, throwing her head back in rapturous satisfaction as she slid her aching sex against a muscular thigh. "Feels so good," Lucy groaned, nearing climax as she shamelessly sought to increase the friction on the slippery skin, "oh god, Kate," she growled, "I'm gonna -"
"Slow down babe," Kate whispered, strong hands gripping mocha hips to halt their frantic movements. Mouth so close to Lucy's that the smaller woman could feel the heat of her breath, Kate breathed, "let me make you come."
The blonde captured Lucy's responding moan with ardent lips, her tongue sliding into the delicious depths of the brunette's mouth in tandem with her fingers sliding into the luxurious depths between her thighs. Lucy cried out in pleasure as strong fingers slid through the copious moisture, and the combination of Kate's firm yet velvety soft tongue in her mouth and the urgently probing fingers in her heat set a rapid pace. The blonde greedily pumped in and out as Lucy's walls tightened around the invading digits, her hips moving faster as Kate's hand pumped harder. The smaller woman groaned as her climax built, and Kate, sensing how close the woman on top of her was to plummeting over the edge, curled her finger inside. The probing finger hit that elusive, spongy spot within, elevating the brunette's pleasure to seemingly impossible heights just as Kate placed her lips on the delicate shell of her ear and whispered, "Come for me baby."
Lucy was nothing but sensation as the insanely hot words hit her ears, and a scream was ripped from her throat as an epic wave of pleasure shredded whatever reality had been before this impossibly perfect woman had come into her life. The brunette was sweating, shaking, completely unbalanced in the aftermath of whatever the hell it was that this goddess was capable of making her feel.
"I got you," Kate whispered to the shuddering, shaking beauty in her arms, "I got you." Holding tightly to the naked and sated body on her lap, Kate withdrew her fingers and pulled the discarded robe up and over Lucy's shoulders, effectively covering both of them. They were so in tune, so tightly intertwined that it was almost impossible to tell where one of them stopped and the other started, and Kate smiled in contentment as she leaned back in the chair and felt the tiny woman on her lap melt into her embrace. This is heaven. Sweet, silent moments passed as they clung to each other in the aftermath of their passionate encounter, Lucy's head resting on Kate's shoulder as the blonde lovingly stroked her back. This is amazing. You're amazing. Lucy, I think I'm in love with you. I'm afraid to say anything, afraid to ruin the mood. What are you thinking? What's going on in that beautiful head of yours?
"Kate?" Lucy asked as she sat up straight and looped her arms across the tall blonde's shoulders, the timing so perfect that Kate was convinced that she had read her mind.
"Yeah?" Kate replied, tipping her head up to look at Lucy and trying to be cool as she waited to find out what was going on in the brunette's mind.
Playing with a strand of silky blonde hair, Lucy smiled and stated, "If you're going to keep putting me through such rigorous workouts, I'm going to need more than just some fruit to keep me going."
"You're impossible," Kate laughed, keeping the banter light for fear she might expose her disappointment that food and not their future was what was on Lucy's mind. There is no future, you leave tomorrow and the job that could have brought you back was stolen from you. Live in the moment Katherine, it's all you've got.
"And you're insatiable," Lucy winked. Kate's embarrassed smile in response was so adorable that Lucy laughed out loud and, knowing the blonde wouldn't tell her no, said, "C'mon Kate, let's get crazy and order a pizza."
"Eating pizza this late is a terrible idea," Kate tried, though to be honest she was finding it almost impossible to tell Lucy no about anything, even a high carb high calorie late night snack.
"One woman's terrible idea is another woman's motivation to burn off the calories," Lucy countered as she reluctantly disentangled herself from the heavenly embrace and headed for the bathroom. Pausing in the doorway, she looked back over her bare shoulder and in a sexy whisper added, "Imagine how much fun burning those calories will be."
Kate just couldn't help herself as the smile that she couldn't seem to control around Lucy appeared on her face, the blush creeping up her neck adding to the overall effect as she reached for the phone book and grumbled, "I assume you have a specific pizza shop in mind?"
Any Way You Slice It
Lucy, still gloriously naked, returned from the bathroom just as Kate picked up the phone to order the pizza. "You said the Margarita?" A perplexed Kate asked, wondering what the salty sweet tequila cocktail could possibly taste like on a pizza.
"Yep," Lucy replied, flopping down on the bed and smiling as she realized that Kate was clueless as to what she was about to order. "You can add any toppings you want, but I normally stick with the classic."
It was then that Kate looked up from the phone and noticed that Lucy hadn't bothered to grab a robe from the en suite, and she once again found coherent thought or intelligible words difficult as she stared at the beautiful vision reclining on the bed. Our bed. I love that. I-
"Oh!" Lucy exclaimed, interrupting the blonde's thoughts as she turned to face her, "tell them we'll-" Faltering when she saw Kate's expression, she said, "Kate?"
"Yeah?" The blonde husked.
"You're looking at me like the Chicken Hawk looks at Foghorn Leghorn."
Snapped out of her reverie by both the ridiculous comparison and Lucy's act of pulling a blanket across her body, Kate laughed out loud and said, "Seriously Lucy? Looney Tunes?"
"Do you have a better way to describe that look on your face?" When Kate's reply was just to shake her head and and shrug her shoulders Lucy continued, "Tell them we'll double the tip if they throw in some plates and napkins and have it here before seven-thirty."
"It's ten 'til seven," the blonde observed as she looked at the clock on the nightstand. How is it only ten 'til seven? I swear it feels like it's been days since dinner. I-
"Then you'd better hurry," Lucy replied, interrupting the blonde's thoughts as she crossed her ankles and flipped through a brochure that she'd found on the bedside table.
Rolling her eyes in mock exasperation, Kate placed the call and chuckled when the response to her seven-thirty request was an enthusiastic, "Buzzer beater 8 slice marg? Challenge accepted!"
"Wanna tell me what that was all about?" Kate asked, her curiosity piqued by the amused response her request had received.
"I don't think I do," a clearly amused Lucy declared, the picture of innocence as she leaned adorably on the fist she'd placed underneath her chin.
"The pizza guy was way too excited by that request," Kate explained, "so I'm thinking-"
"That he knew a smart, sexy woman was placing the order?" Lucy interrupted, batting her eyes in a way that, combined with her words, made Kate's stomach do flip flops. Her responding smile and shaky inhalation were adorable, and the brunette was once again struck by how beautiful the woman was when she was happy. I really wish you lived here, that I could spend every day finding a way to see that smile. God you're so-wait, what are you saying?
"...going to tell me or not?" Floated to Lucy's ears as she tried to remember the conversation before she'd been distracted, and she literally couldn't remember what they'd been discussing so she simply replied, "You said what?"
Taking a seat on the bed next to the incorrigible brunette, Kate asked, "Do you wanna tell me what the smirk is about?"
"Maybe," Lucy teased, her eyes traveling the length of the bathrobe clad blonde.
"Lucy!"
"You know they can't see you through the phone, right?"
"They who?"
"The pizza shop guys. Or anyone, really," Lucy matter-of-factly explained, eyes sliding away as she found it impossible to look directly at Kate and keep up the mirthful banter.
God you're such a square Whistler! Such a prude you couldn't even let Fun Kate order pizza naked. You're blowing this, time for damage control. "I was just cold," Kate lied, looking anywhere but at Lucy as she knew her face would give her away.
"Sure," Lucy agreed, allowing Kate's lie as she recalled the grace the blonde had shown her when her fear of the water had come up, "it is rather chilly in here."
"You're literally naked," Kate observed.
"But I do have a blanket," Lucy winked, "and I should probably be wearing a little more when the pizza arrives."
Feeling the dip in the mattress as Kate leaned closer, Lucy closed her eyes in anticipation of whatever the blonde was about to do to her.
"Don't wear too much," Kate whispered, her warm breath teasingly close though she made no actual physical contact, "I don't need my dessert gift wrapped." And just as quickly as she had leaned in to taunt the reclining nymph, Kate was up and off of the bed, leaving a disappointed Lucy in her wake.
"Kate," Lucy shivered, "I -" Opening her eyes and turning her head, the brunette realized that Kate was no longer in the room, and finished, "Don't need to reply because you're not here."
When Kate returned from the bathroom a few minutes later she couldn't hide the big, goofy grin that erupted on her face when she spotted the brunette. "I almost wore that tonight," she explained, "that's why it was on the chair."
"I hope you don't mind," Lucy grinned as she rolled up the sleeves of the blouse that fit her like a dress, "it's much easier to pull on than that dress. Room service will be here shortly," she explained, "and I honestly didn't want to fight my way back into that outfit before they knocked on the door."
Kate's responding smile was adorable, and Lucy was once again transfixed by how absolutely beautiful the woman was when she was happy. I love that smile, love the way you look at me like I'm the only woman in the world. You're so gorgeous, so good to me. God, I'm so into you. I think I'm falling in love with you.
"Room service? Seriously? What did you order?"
"Just another bottle of wine," Lucy explained.
"And?" A skeptical Kate asked.
"A few more bottles of water."
"And?" Kate asked, grabbing a fistful of her own shirt and using it to pull the wickedly hot woman inside of it into her arms.
Closing her eyes and leaning into the embrace, Lucy answered, "Nothing, I swear."
"We'll see," Kate smirked, not believing for one second that Lucy had ordered nothing but wine.
"Yet," Lucy mumbled under her breath, and Kate's mirthful, "I knew it!" prompted Lucy to laugh out loud and admit, "Well there are a few more island delights you need to experience before you leave. What kind of tour guide would I be if I let any of them slide?"
"Hmm, not a very good one," Kate admitted, her lips erasing the righteous scowl from the adorably upturned face.
Reveling in the feel of Kate's lips on hers, Lucy leaned in to deepen the brief peck and was disappointed when the blonde released her and walked to the open balcony door.
Watching Kate cross her arms and sigh, Lucy asked, "What's wrong?"
"I just realized I missed my last chance to see a sunset on the island," she admitted, "and I think I'm more disappointed because it means this amazing trip is almost over than because I missed the sunset."
"But you still have one more sunrise," Lucy said, her voice betraying the fact that she was feeling the pain of the clock running down as well.
"Yeah, I do," Kate agreed, knowing that Lucy would most likely be sound asleep while she was on a surfboard watching the spectacular scene as the sun broke through the endless horizon. "Do you think you might want to wake up early and watch it with me?" Kate asked, looking back over her shoulder at Lucy, who was standing there tapping her chin in thought.
"Sure, sounds great," Lucy agreed, her tone distracted as her eyes darted around the room.
"On a surfboard?"
"Yup."
"Lucy!"
"What?"
"You didn't hear a word I just said, did you?" Kate challenged.
"What's that now?" Lucy asked, her focus clearly not on the conversation at hand.
"I asked if you'd wake up to watch the sunrise with me," Kate smiled, "on a surfboard. And you agreed."
"I did?"
"You did," the blonde said, "but seriously Lucy, what did you lose now?" Amusement colored her tone as she leaned against the doorway, watching Lucy fully engaged in panic mode. You're so cute when you can't find what you're looking for. I love that I know you well enough to recognize "can't find it" Lucy. What the hell are you looking for? The last time you acted like this you-.
"My clutch," Lucy replied, brow furrowed in consternation, "I know I had it when I got off the elevator."
"You dropped it when I pinned you against the wall," Kate smirked, "so it should be right-"
"Found it!" Lucy triumphantly declared as she bent to pick it up.
With a slight hitch in her voice Kate scratched the back of her head and asked, "Are you going somewhere?"
"God no," Lucy replied, understanding dawning as she took in Kate's crestfallen expression, "what gave you that idea?"
"You were looking for your wallet," the blonde replied, "I just, I figured since the last time you were looking for your stuff like that you were-"
"Not going anywhere," Lucy promised, moving across the room and pulling the insecure blonde into her arms, "I just need it to pay for the pizza."
"Oh," the blonde replied, "I was actually going to pay for it."
"You don't have to do that, I-"
"Can pay for breakfast," Kate interrupted, her lips hot on Lucy's ear.
"Bold, assuming I'll be here for breakfast," Lucy shivered, her knees once again weak just because Kate was touching her and whispering sweet sexy promises in her ear.
"Well I'll just have to make sure you stick around so I can collect," the blonde whispered.
"How soon you forget," Lucy drawled, "that pizza and room service and breakfast are all on Colton and the Oklahoma boys."
Pulling back slightly to scrutinize the incorrigible brunette, Kate quirked an eyebrow and said, "You ordered dessert, didn't you?"
Grinning and shrugging her shoulder in response, Lucy playfully responded, "We'll see."
