Now We're Here

  “Are you ready to let him back into your life?” Gabriella asked with her head cocked to the side.

  “You know what, yeah, I am,” Alicia said. “Talking to him felt like a breath of fresh air, especially that, you know, you and I were having some issues.”

  Gabriella pursed her lips and looked away. Her gaze was fixated somewhere far, somewhere unreachable. Alicia hoped she hadn’t said something wrong. “I know I wasn’t fair to you this entire time,” Gabriella said suddenly. “I know I was distant, and I’m sorry.”

  Alicia moved in closer. She pushed her hair behind her ear and looked into her eyes. “Listen, I know you had a lot on your plate, I’m not blaming you for anything.”

  “Alicia, I don’t deserve this, I don’t deserve you,” Gabriella said. “You’re so forgiving, and I…I took you for granted. I’m sorry.”

  Alicia pulled Gabriella to her and kissed her. She couldn’t resist the thoughts that were rushing through her. Gabriella’s smell was flooding her senses. The whole world was melting away; at that point nothing mattered, not even their fights. Alicia closed her eyes and started to skip ahead of time. God, she had missed Gabriella. Her hair felt soft to the touch. Alicia could feel something tingling between her legs at the mere thought of them climbing up to their bedroom.

  “Do you wanna go upstairs?” she asked.

  Gabriella let out a soft moan. “Enough time wasted. Let’s just do it here.”

  Alicia’s nipples started to harden as Gabriella ran her hands over them. Slowly, she started to undress Alicia. First the shirt, then the bra. She caressed her neck, down her chest over her nipples gently applying a little more pressure where needed. Alicia squealed at the sensation. She licked Gabriella’s fingers and rolled them over her now erect nipples.

  Slowly Gabriella’s hands started making their way down the milky white skin of Alicia’s now bare stomach, past the seam of her thong. She admired the smoothness of her nicely shaven pussy.

  “You did that for me?” Gabriella whispered into Alicia’s ear. She reached down and started to run her fingers over her clit; Alicia could imagine Gabriella’s tongue and face buried deep in her pussy. She could see it as though it were actually happening, Gabriella’s wide eyes staring back up at her while she devoured her. Alicia felt herself getting wetter and wetter. “Do it already,” she breathed.

  “Wait for it,” Gabriella hissed, licking around Alicia’s ears, and down to the sensitive skin on her neck. She let out a soft moan as Gabriella’s tongue maneuvered in little circles over her skin. A tingle shot up Gabriella’s spine as she started licking up and down and knew that she was driving her girlfriend wild.

  “Come on, just fuck me already,” Alicia begged, tugging at her own underwear, begging Gabriella to remove it.

  “Not yet,” she said. Each stroke of Gabriella’s tongue and each embrace was electric. Alicia now longed for the fulfillment of her fantasy. Gabriella felt Alicia tense up the closer and closer she got to her breasts. Alicia had always considered Gabriella a great lover because she was able to read body language and hold off just enough to get her partner wanting more. She had found what Alicia really wanted and was going to hold off just long enough to drive her crazy.

  The suspense was driving Alicia mad. Her nipples were longing for the touch of Gabriella’s tongue. Each moment they weren't there was more torturous, and yet delicious. Time seemed to drag on and on. Alicia tried everything, she started playing with Gabriella’s nipple, hoping she would get the hint that that was what she wanted. She tried bringing her chest up every time Gabriella’s face got close to them, each time denied as Gabriella moved on. Finally she couldn't stand it any longer.

  "Lick my nipples," Alicia breathed, panting with desire.

  "I'm sorry I didn't hear what you said," Gabriella said between licks.

  Alicia didn't repeat herself, she just grabbed Gabriella’s head and forced it down to her chest. Gabriella didn't argue and took the queue that now was the time to give her lover what she wanted. She worked her expert tongue over Alicia’s nipple, driving her wild. Then she moved to the other giving each equal attention, rolling the other between her fingers.

  "You like that, don't you?" Gabriella said looking up from between Alicia’s voluptuous breasts. "Well now it’s time for me to do something that I've wanted to do since I walked in through that door." With that she ran her hands down the sides of Alicia's body and grabbed the thong that she was still wearing, pulled it down over Alicia’s long legs and discarded it.

  Without another word Gabriella started to work her tongue on Alicia’s pussy. Slowly she started working round and around, increasing her speed as she went on. Alicia didn't even know what to do with herself. Her body was a torrent of lust and pleasure. Still, there was something more she wanted, even more than the pleasure she was receiving. She wanted to give back to Gabriella.

  Gabriella swung her legs up around her girlfriend’s face. She pulled down Gabriella’s panties and greedily began to lick her clit for all she was worth. Gabriella gasped into Alicia's pussy, surprised at how well her girlfriend had worked her up.

  Alicia couldn't hold on any longer; she knew her orgasm was near. She began to buck and grind against Gabriella's face as she got closer and closer until finally, she felt herself erupt with pleasure. She screamed as she buried her face into the sweet pussy in her face and licked madly. Gabriella couldn't believe what was happening. She had never felt anything like this; it was like five orgasms rolled into one.

  The two of them erupted into orgasms almost simultaneously, neither one of them knowing what to do. After a while they just sat there panting, embracing still. Sweat dripping from their bodies. Neither of them spoke for quite a while as the incident that had just occurred replayed in their heads. “That was …”

  “Amazing.”

  For a while they froze in the same position, then Alicia threw her legs off the couch and sat up, panting. “Those past couple of months were torture,” she said. “There were nights when I would think about you in a certain way, and I wouldn’t be able to get that image of you out of my mind.”

  “What image?” Gabriella asked, licking her lips and leaning in close to Alicia again.

  “That image of you naked, bucked up on my lap, rocking back and forth gently,” she said, closing her eyes. “I can almost see it now.”

  “You have no idea how much I had missed you, too,” Gabriella said, brushing her fingers through her girlfriend’s hair. “I was aching, aching,” she continued. “There were times when I would lay in bed, close my eyes and think about you. And then I would touch myself to all our memories together. You were all I wanted when I was over there, you still are.”

  Alicia leaned in and pressed her lips to Gabriella’s. Their bodies were intertwined, almost like they were inseparable. “I don’t want us to ever be passive aggressive towards each other ever again,” Alicia whispered against Gabriella’s lips.

  “It’s okay,” Gabriella muttered between kisses. “Blame it on me. It was my fault.”

  “I’m just as much at blame,” Alicia said. “Gabriella, I want more. I want more of you,” she said suddenly.

  A gush of desire burst through her all over again; it was like she couldn’t control herself. Just looking at Gabriella’s voluptuous figure made Alicia go absolutely wild. A part of her just wanted to tell Gabriella to get dressed so she could undress her all over again.

  “You know what I want?” Alicia asked, staring at Gabriella through heavy-lidded eyes. “I want you to fuck me, right now.”

  “Oh,” Gabriella said, biting her bottom lip.

  Gabriella ran her hands all over Alicia’s milky skin; at that point Alicia was losing her mind. She wanted more. She kissed Gabriella’s neck, taking one of her beautiful, erect, pink nipples in her mouth, sucking and nibbling on it with such eagerness to please, that Gabriella felt her knees weaken and pleasure flow through her body. Alicia cupped the other breast
in her right hand, slowly running her thumb over the nipple, and then stroking it with her index and middle finger before switching sides. Every now and then she would let her hand glide down to Gabriella’s stomach and lightly tease her with her fingernails, causing her to shudder. When Gabriella finally moved her hand to Alicia’s warm and awaiting spot, the wave of pleasure that went through her body forced her to shriek and nearly fall down.

  At this, Gabriella laughed. “Tell me, how much you want it,” she hissed.

  “So fucking much,” Alicia whispered.

  “Well, I’m about to put you out of your misery,” Gabriella said teasingly. Even though on the inside, she was dying just as much. “Stand up,” she commanded.

  Alicia got up and suddenly she found herself being pushed up against the wall right next to the TV screen. “Get down for me, why don’t you?” she whispered again.

  Immediately, Alicia sank to her knees and lay down on the floor. Gabriella flung her arms around her and twisted to the right, going down on her right shoulder. She then brought her left leg over Alicia’s and slid on top of her, the feeling of her strong legs snaking around hers, the taut, muscular calves rubbing against Alicia’s, made her hot.

  She knew that Gabriella's intent was to grapevine her legs and pin her to the floor. Gabriella brought her arms under Alicia’s armpits and pulled her into her, slowly pulling her tighter and closer until their cheeks were touching and Alicia could feel her steamy gasps on her lips. She arched her upper body in a half bridge, and with their bodies now in contact from head to toe they lay almost as one, Gabriella’s cheek pressing into hers, their arms and hands firmly locked behind each other.

  Alicia moaned quietly, savoring the feeling of sweaty skin on skin as flat stomachs pressed closely together. With her thighs spread wide, a few wriggles brought her pubic arch in contact with Gabriella’s, she began to move rhythmically, rubbing her crotch against Alicia’s. She lifted her hips, moving in unison with her, their centers pressing against each other in perfect harmony.

  Alicia’s arousal was growing rapidly, far too rapidly. Pictures of them naked and glistening with sweat began to play on her inner screen. To fuel her burning imagination, she slid her left hand down, feeling the naked body writhing against her. It was almost as if Gabriella had her in a wrestling position. It was so tempting just to enjoy it all, just a few seconds more, just a few strokes more. Their breathing was getting faster, impatient, both eager for more.

  The corners of their mouths were just millimeters away from each other, and being unable to resist the temptation, Alicia turned her head slightly making their lips meet. It was not a kiss, not yet. It was just lips pressed onto each other and half open, hungry mouths exchanging breaths, half-moaning. Gabriella’s eyes locked with hers, beautiful and shining with lust as she began to kiss her. They were obviously in the same condition. Breathing hard through their noses, their tongues began to duel for possession of each other's mouth. Alicia felt Gabriella's tongue push deep into her mouth as her hands squeezed her butt hard, pressing their bodies more tightly together. Suddenly, the incredible stimulation of Gabriella's mouth and the tight rubbing of their vaginas became too much for Alicia.

  Just in time before Alicia’s erotic submission, she succeeded in bridging high, writhing to the right, and reversing their positions, ending up on top of Gabriella between her thighs. She immediately half bridged, keeping her shoulders off the floor, looking up at her, slightly smiling. Alicia slowly slid in between Gabriella's invitingly spread thighs. They both moaned wantonly at the ecstatic feeling of their strong, sweaty limbs gradually fusing together, pressing as much naked skin as possible against each other, both feeling each and every smooth, coiling curve of her lover pressing into hers. Gabriella’s heels locked in the hollows of Alicia’s knees as they gradually cocooned each other in a muscular, glistening missionary position. As Gabriella arched her torso to keep her shoulders off the floor, their naked breasts made full contact for the first time, stiff nipple rubbing over stiff nipple, and Alicia lowered herself that last magical inch until their pussies sealed in a tight kiss.

  Gabriella inhaled sharply and her entire body convulsed at the moment of contact. Her hands roamed down Alicia’s back and cupped her butt. Chin to chin, gazing intensely at each other, they began to move in a slow, grinding rhythm, and despite Alicia’s breasts' full press on hers, she kept her half bridge. Alicia could see the beginning of despair in her beautiful eyes. She was in control and was about to take them both higher. She thrust down her hips a little more, their lips pressing in more firmly to each other. Gabriella had great hip mobility and Alicia found herself doing less and less as her legs, hips and stomach muscles provided complete coverage from cleft to cleft. Thrills darted through her as their clits mashed into each other, and she suddenly realized that she was a big girl. The thrill of this agile girl writhing beneath her, their pussies as one, moved Alicia dangerously close to the edge, but she had to have her first.

  She slid slightly forward on Gabriella's straining body, letting her pussy glide up hers. She could feel her clit in just the right position between her labia, almost an inch of steely, feminine potency, and with a small forward thrust, it slid into her to the hilt.

  A weak squeal escaped her, and her bridge collapsed. She let go of Alicia’s butt, took her around the neck, and just lay there half-bridging, staring hard at her with burning eyes, firmly locked in the most effective orgasm hold one girl could have over another. Passionately moaning and locked tightly together in their sweaty love position, they had established so many sensitive, erotic points of contact with each other that they felt like one sizzling, pulsating body. Suddenly her eyes squeezed shut, her mouth opened in a silent scream and each and every muscle in her naked body began to spasm. Alicia finally had her, her shoulders bolted firmly to the floor and shivering in orgasm. The feeling broke Alicia’s last defense, and she joined her in the ultimate ecstasy in a violent orgasm that went on and on. For a long time they lay there in mutual bliss, one girl's orgasm fueling the other.

  When they finally calmed down, Alicia leaned in to kiss Gabriella. “Got you this time,” she whispered against her lips.

  CHAPTER 13

  “Hey, babe,” Alicia said, coming down the stairs.

  Gabriella was curled up on the couch, her eyes fixated on her computer screen. She sipped her coffee and continued to scroll through her feed, her expression not changing. Alicia ran around the house, washing the dishes, mopping up the floors, dusting the curtains. But Gabriella still didn’t move. She was fixated like a statue, not taking her eyes off what she was reading.

  “Is everything okay?” Alicia asked, peering over her shoulder.

  “Yeah,” she said, her lips barely moving. “I’m just reading some articles on Buzzfeed.”

  “I say we spend the day as regular couch potatoes,” Alicia said, kissing Gabriella on the cheek. “Wanna watch a movie tonight?” she asked.

  Gabriella nodded, her hair dancing across her shoulders. “I’d love to,” she said. But still, she seemed a little distracted. “Wait, let me grab my glasses,” she said, getting up.

  Immediately, Alicia’s eyes jumped to the computer screen. Gabriella’s feed auto-refreshed, and what Alicia saw shocked her. Sawdust bassist bashes ex-lead singer Gabriella Tolken on live TV. Alicia’s heart must’ve skipped a beat. She could hear Gabriella roaming around the house, looking for her glasses.

  “I can’t find them!” she yelled from upstairs.

  Alicia took a gulp of air before getting up. She paced the room frantically, and when her eyes landed on Gabriella’s glasses, she didn’t utter a word. In fact she picked them up and hid them in one of the drawers while she thought about what she was going to say to Gabriella. She was already devastated about leaving the band mid-tour, and now this? What was Devon trying to do, ruin her reputation? Alicia was seeing red. Her hands were balled up into fists, her nostrils were flared and her teeth were clenched.
What the hell was she going to tell Gabriella? She cocked her head to the side and listened; Gabriella was still running around looking. Alicia scrolled down a little bit more.

  “Oh God, what the hell?” she said to herself.

  She was holding us back, said the twenty-five-year-old bassist.

  Alicia’s face scrunched up into a frown. She couldn’t believe what she was reading. Soon enough, she could hear Gabriella’s bare feet thumping down the stairs. She went around the TV room, as if sniffing around for her glasses.

  “Maybe they’re in here?” Gabriella asked, yanking the drawer open. “Found them!”

  Alicia watched Gabriella closely as she slumped back down on the couch and went back to scrolling through her feed. Suddenly, she froze. “Alicia, Alicia do you see this?” she asked, not taking her eyes off the screen. Her fingers hovered over the mouse-pad; Alicia looked over and saw that they were trembling. “What the hell is this?” Gabriella asked, turning to look at her. Alicia peered over her shoulder and pretended to read the thing all over again.

  “I don’t know …”

  “Her decisions for the band were not strategic, very narrow-minded and she wasn’t open to criticism. I can’t believe this!” Gabriella yelled, slamming the lid of her laptop shut. Her hands were trembling, almost as though her fingers were about to fall off.

  “Gabriella, what else does it say?” Alicia asked, brushing the hair out of her eyes. “Hey, Gabriella.”

  “I don’t know, I don’t want to read this,” she said, hugging her knees to her chest. She rocked back and forth gently, as if trying to shake off the memories. “Devon is a fucking dickhead, I don’t want to read this.”

  Alicia grabbed the laptop and typed in Gabriella’s password. The news headline filled her view; she went on scrolling until she found her name nested somewhere in the middle of the article.
