Ben sat next to Jess on the sofa and picked up the remote for the television. “I’m going to find us a film to watch. Mum, if you want to clean up in my en-suite, you can.”
Smiling at the offer, she released Charlie and Richard, kissing them both on the head. “I think I’ll do just that. I smell bad, I’m starting to offend myself.” As she walked past the sofa, she kissed the twins on their heads. “Keep an eye on them for me; if you need us, shout up the stairs. There’s snacks and drinks in the kitchen, if you want something to nibble on.”
Climbing the stairs slowly, she heard the water running in the large whirlpool tub in her bathroom. I can’t remember the last time I had a bath. It’s just easier to have a shower. The sound made all of her muscles come alive, they ached and felt heavy.
As she hit the landing, a strong smell of jasmine filled the hallway. Apparently, Carrie had found one of the gifts she’d received from her battalion the day before.
“Hey, is it okay to come in?” she asked when she knocked on the bedroom door.
“Sure, I’m just running the water. What’s up?”
She entered the room to find Carrie in her dressing gown—her cleavage showing. “I…umm.” She licked her suddenly dry lips. “Wow, that dressing gown looks cute on you.” She shook her head to clear her thoughts. “I was going to use Ben’s shower, but after hearing the water running, I was wondering if you would help me take a bath. I haven’t had one since the night before I was last deployed.”
Carrie stepped slowly toward her, the seductive bite of her bottom lip rendering Jackie incapable of movement. She slid her hands over Jackie’s chest and rested them lazily over her shoulders. She kissed her cheeks, then the tip of her nose, and finally her mouth.
“Of course I’ll help you. But there’s no need for you to wait until I’ve finished.” She edged back and their gazes locked.
Jackie swallowed hard at the lust she saw in Carrie’s eyes. “I...I...I” Think dummy! Your gorgeous girlfriend’s offering to share a bath with you!
Carrie laughed and flicked the bedroom door shut with her elbow. Taking her hand, she led Jackie into the humid, scented, air of the bathroom.
Jackie gazed longingly at the water. “I’m going to struggle getting in and out.”
“No you won’t, I’ll help you.” Grabbing the front of her jumper, she pulled Jackie closer, and began to raise the garment over her body. “Allow me to assist with undressing you.”
The intoxicating smile, made Jackie swallow even harder. The seductive wink, and licking her lips made her core heat up, and every drop of moisture in her body settled between her legs. It amazed her at the speed Carrie worked, she was soon standing naked in front of her.
Carrie reached out a hand and ran a fingernail around the indentation her abs made. The sensation was divine, and made her leg wobble. “I need to sit down, before you cause me to fall.” The smouldering lust she saw in Carrie’s eyes was her undoing. As she grabbed for the front of her robe, and forcefully pulled Carrie into her body, capturing her lips with her own—a hunger she’d never known consumed her. Reaching out, she untied the belt of the robe to reveal Carrie’s body, and ran her eager hands up and down the naked flesh.
“Whoa.” Carrie took a step back and took hold of her hand. “Let’s get in the bath.”
Gingerly lowering herself onto the side of the bath, she reached down to release her leg, but Carrie’s hand stopped her. Seeing her kneeling semi-naked on the floor before her caused Jackie’s heart to pound erratically.
Swinging her leg over the side of the bath, she used her upper body strength to lower herself into the hot water. The second her muscles felt the sensation, they relaxed. The feel of the warm water sloshing around her stump and hips, made her sigh in contentment. Leaning her head back against the edge, she closed her eyes. “I’d forgotten how good this was.”
Hearing the weight of the dressing gown hit the floor made her open her eyes. The body before her was perfect; soft pink skin glowed in the bathroom light, her breasts high and tight, caused a muscle in Jackie’s stomach to twitch in anticipation of what they would feel like in her hands and mouth. Carrie’s long legs showed the definition of her muscles. Da Vinci himself wouldn’t be able to capture such perfect beauty and strength. She held her hand out to her girlfriend. “Come on in.”
It’s going to be impossible for me to control myself, with her naked in my arms.
Carrie stepped into the water, slowly sinking down to her knees, with her back to Jackie, making her spread her legs to clear a space for her to sit. They bathed one other, removing the soot.
Slipping her hands over Carrie’s hips, she pulled her back to lean against her chest—pressing her lips to Carrie’s shoulder, she slowly moved her way up the slope to her neck, stopping at the satin spot behind her ear. “You’re gorgeous, my darling. Your beauty holds no words.”
Carrie arched her neck, granting her better access, and moaned loudly, the sound echoing off the sandstone coloured tiles. She turned in her arms, lying directly on top of her, an ardent kiss seizing her lips, threatening to stop Jackie from breathing.
“Your own is beyond compare. I’m a lucky girl to have you as my girlfriend.”
Another kiss followed, rendering Jackie speechless.
A groan escaped as Carrie pulled away. “What’s wrong?”
Carrie reached out with a wet hand and stroked her cheek. “I want to make love to you but the children are downstairs.”
Jackie grinned wickedly and pecked her lips quickly. “We’ll just have to be quiet. If I don’t touch you soon, I’m going to implode.” She swept her tongue over Carrie’s earlobe, then gently nibbled it. With her fingertips, she stroked spirals on her sides, moving her hands upwards towards Carrie’s perfect breasts.
Carrie threw her head back, arching away from her, and capturing her hands with her own. “Jesus, you’ve sure got a great way to convince a girl.”
Jackie groaned when Carrie placed her hands over her breasts and began to make small circles. Using her thumb, she flicked it gently against Jackie’s nipple. Passion, desire, lust, rampaged through her body, making her surge upwards to capture Carrie’s lips once again.
Carrie released her hands and wrapped her arms around her neck, to keep from falling backwards. Jackie’s hands were still between them, massaging her breasts. She focused her touch on Carrie’s nipples, and circled the tiny buds until they stood to full attention.
Using her upper body strength, she placed her hands on Carrie’s hips, and lifted her up, until her legs spread wide open, causing her to straddle her thighs. Carrie instantly responded and rocked her hips forward. The beautiful milky orbs were too tantalising to ignore, and she ran a line down Carrie’s chest with her lips, over the gentle swell, to her nipple. Taking it in her mouth, she sucked and nibbled, slowly circling it with her tongue.
Carrie ran her fingers through her hair as she groaned at the sensation Jackie was creating with her mouth. She tightened her fingers, making a fist, and raised her face to look into her eyes.
“I want to look into your eyes as we love each other for the first time.” Carrie’s hold on her hair relaxed, and she surged forward, kissing her passionately.
Jackie was lost in a haze of passion as their tongues met and duelled perfectly within her mouth, her hand holding Carrie’s head in place, forcing her deeper into the kiss, and ensuring she couldn’t pull away.
With a growl, Carrie pushed her hand away and directed her mouth to her breasts. Taking the tiny bundle in between her lips, she swirled her tongue slowly around it, running it along the front of her teeth.
Carrie pulled her by the hair and dragged her mouth away, tilting her head so that Jackie looked into her eyes. “Stop teasing me!”
Jackie attacked her breast again, gently at first, then more aggressively at Carrie’s guidance. Her rocking resumed, and her panting drove Jackie wild. Sliding her hand down her stomach, she slipped her fingers into the soft hair at t
he apex of her legs. She raised her head and fused their lips once again, as her hand slid even lower, her own breathing laboured as she encountered the warm wetness for the first time.
“Oh, Jesus Christ!” Carrie bucked above her.
“You’re so beautiful.” Her other hand travelled down into the water between Carrie’s legs. Her tongue slowly parted Carrie’s lips and slipped inside for a spirited exploration, at the same time she moved her thumb faster over her clit. Carrie moaned into her mouth and arched her hips forward, encouraging Jackie to take more of her. Jackie gently picked the pace up with her fingers, and Carrie threw her head back, her body heaving as she panted. Moving her hand further down, she found Carrie’s entrance. Her wetness coated her hand, and she slid a single finger slowly into the warmth, the hard muscles pulsing, pulling her in further.
Carrie’s hips increased their pace, her breasts swaying slightly with the rhythm. “More, sweetheart…Oh God, more.”
A grin spread across Jackie’s face, and she kissed Carrie on the lips. “Gently, darling…we’re going to take this nice…and slowly.” Her lust filled husky voice filled the air.
“No, baby, please…please…don’t stop, I need you to make me come.”
Jackie decided to give Carrie what she wanted. Removing her finger from those beautiful silken folds, she missed the intense feeling, and immediately eased two fingers back inside her, causing Carrie to gasp loudly. Her fingernails ran over Jackie’s back, and she bit gently on her shoulder.
“Oh, lord,” Jackie growled at the sensation, her centre twitching as the bite mark stung. Keeping her rhythm and pressure the same, she raised her head to look at Carrie, and felt her hips quicken and rotate against her. Muscles twitched against Jackie’s fingers when her thumb came down hard on Carrie’s clit and flicked it.
Carrie threw her head back and thrashed violently into her. Jackie positioned her thumb directly over Carrie’s clit and let the thrust of her hips determine the pressure.
“God, baby, don’t…stop! That…feels…so…good!” Carrie panted as she continued to ride Jackie’s fingers, capturing Jackie’s lips with her own and kissing her deeply.
Increasing the pace, Jackie felt a stronger fluttering, and pulled back to look up into Carrie’s eyes. “Come for me, baby…come on, let go.”
The combined pressure from her fingers and her huskily spoken words sent Carrie over the edge, her nails digging into Jackie’s back and scraping downward. The pain didn’t register as the euphoria she felt as she as she watched Carrie’s orgasm take hold of her overrode it.
“Jesus Christ, Jackie! I love you…I love you…so much!”
Tightening her hold on her hips, she helped Carrie’s movement as she rode out her orgasm and the aftershocks that followed. The intensity of the tremors were fierce. As the quakes subsided, Jackie collapsed down on top of Carrie, and buried her head into Jackie’s neck, panting hard, trying to catch her breath. After a few moments, a light chuckle escaped Jackie’s lips.
“So much for being quiet.”
Carrie sat up, moaning as Jackie’s fingers moved within her. “Shit! I forgot. Do you think they heard us?”
“I don’t know.”
Carrie eased herself off Jackie’s fingers. “The water’s gone cold. Let’s get out and go through to the bedroom. I can’t wait to get my hands on you.”
Climbing from the tub, Carrie wrapped herself in a towel, and moved to stand at the back of the bath to help Jackie out. Jackie’s arm muscles strained as she pushed herself out of the water. A towel was immediately wrapped around her.
“I’ll get your crutches.”
Jackie knew she should be happy about what had just happened, and she was, but to have her lover running around for her, fetching things, wasn’t romantic. It was yet another way her accident had affected her life. Self-pity filled her being. Who’d want to make love to me, looking like this?
Carrie marched back into the bathroom and handed her the crutches. “Hurry, I can’t wait to get to know that body up close and personal.”
Securing her towel in place, she went into the bedroom, her face downcast, afraid to look at Carrie in case she saw her shame. She sat down heavily on the bed, and an involuntary sigh left her.
“Baby, what’s wrong?” Carrie rolled over onto her side, and then into a sitting position at Jackie’s back, taking her into her arms.
“It’s just…this isn’t exactly romantic is it? I mean…me hopping around on my crutches with no leg attached…isn’t really sexy, is it?” Insecurity filled her mind, believing that at some point Carrie would resent her for her lack of a leg.
Carrie kissed the side of her neck. “Darling, today is exactly what we needed. We’ve wanted each other for so long, I’m surprised we weren’t more aggressive, actually. You’re the sweetest person in the world, I don’t see your crutches or your leg as you, baby. It doesn’t define who you are—at the end of the day, you’re just my Jackie.”
“I don’t know what you could possibly see in me.”
“I see so much in you. I love the way you treat us all. I see love every time I look deep into your eyes.” Carrie tightened her hold on her and gently kissed Jackie’s neck.
“Did you mean what you said earlier? You know, when you…”
Carrie’s arms tightened again, her soft lips on Jackie’s shoulder. “Yes, darling, I did. I love you more than you’ll ever know.”
Jackie turned her head and looked at her. “Are you sure? Is this life going to be enough for you?”
“More than enough. Jackie, I love you with every fibre of my being.” A tear slid down Carrie’s cheek, Jackie caught it with her fingers. “I want us to grow old together.”
At hearing the last of Carrie’s words, Jackie’s hesitation and fears began to melt. She turned in Carrie’s arms and pushed her back onto the bed, climbing on top of her as her back hit the mattress. “I love you, too, beautiful. I have for a long time.” Leaning down she brushed a kiss against her lips. “I’m sorry I got insecure.”
“I don’t want to hear any more negativity or Jackie bashing,” Carrie reprimanded as she stroked Jackie’s back. “I’m not going anywhere. You’re more than I could ever have wished for, and my life feels complete now that I have you.” Reversing their positions, Carrie slid seductively on top of Jackie. “Let me prove how much I love you. I want to make love to you, like nobody else ever has.”
“What about the children? If we spend more time up here, they’re going to know something’s happening.”
“Tough, they’re not babies anymore. They understand that people in committed relationships make love.” Leaning down, Carrie kissed her with a fierce passion.
All thoughts left Jackie’s head as the kiss continued, completely oblivious to everything around her, and a cry of frustration came from her when Carrie broke the kiss. But she forgave her just as quickly as Carrie’s lips moved down her throat and onto her chest. Her nipples stiffened almost to painfulness—she was near begging, when Carrie finally took one in her mouth. Her hips bucked, and her wetness coated her upper thighs.
“You’re gorgeous,” Carrie mumbled around her breast.
Closing her eyes tightly against the burning need inside, she placed her hand on the back of Carrie’s head and encouraged her to give more.
When the soft lips trailed between her breasts onto her abdomen, she struggled and thrashed, beside herself at the raw power her emotions had over her. Carrie’s tongue traced the outline of her abs, stopping to suck the bottom two. Jackie jerked upwards, clutching Carrie’s head hard in her hands. “Oh, bloody hell, you’re trying to kill me!”
Carrie surged forward, pushing her back onto the bed, her hair tickling the muscles she had been kissing only seconds before.
Pushing herself up on her elbows, Jackie looked down to see Carrie’s head moving lower, her lips kissing a trail over her hips, to her thighs, down to her knees, and back up again on the inside of her leg.
“Jesus, you�
�re so wet,” Carrie groaned. “I can’t wait any longer.” Her head dipped and her tongue appeared.
Jackie lost herself as Carrie’s mouth came into contact with her hard centre. She fell back onto the bed as her lover’s tongue swirled over her clit, applying just enough pressure to push her over the edge. “Oh, God,” Jackie cried out.
Carrie flattened her tongue and continued to ravish Jackie’s clit. She stopped after a few more flicks of her tongue, and kissed her way down to Jackie’s opening, making her shiver in anticipation.
Damn, this is the first time anyone has ever loved me with their mouth.
Carrie groaned in appreciation and lifted her head to look up the bed at Jackie. “I’m going to love this.” A small smile broke across her lips. She bent her head and placed one last kiss on her clit. “I love you, Jackie Holmes.” Her tongue then slid inside of Jackie, and they both groaned at the same time.
“Mmm…Oh…I…love you…oh God…too,” Jackie rasped out as she reached down and entwined her fingers in Carrie’s hair, pulling it into a fist.
Carrie took hold of Jackie’s right leg softly and placed it over her shoulder, opening Jackie up further to her touch. She trailed her thumb up to Jackie’s clit, and moved it in time with the thrusts of her tongue. Jackie raised her hips off the bed and started bucking wildly.
“Oh, God, I’m going to come.” The tension in her body rose, and she felt like a violin string ready to snap.
“Come for me, love,” Carrie purred against her wet folds.
A sensation, starting from her toes, worked its way up to her centre, then she went completely still, and lifted them both off the bed as her hips rose with the force of her impending climax. “Jesus, Carrie! I love you so much!” she screamed out a second later, her breath catching and holding as her body shuddered and shook, completely shattering, leaving her breathless.
Her hips settled against the bed a few moments later, her body shaking uncontrollably as Carrie place one last kiss against the over-sensitive bundle of nerves between her legs. Reaching down, she pulled Carrie up along her body. Kissing her, her passion began to rise again, as she tasted herself on Carrie’s lips. I want her again!
