Kris opened her mouth to speak, but it was a weak attempt and nothing came out.
Jenna slid her thumb across Kris's lips. “Do you know how hard it was to control myself when all I wanted to do was kiss these lips?” She felt like a weight had been lifted from her shoulders. She had been a prisoner of her own heart for too long. “The riddle on the card meant I’m a lesbian and have always been. I’ve always felt different, but I never knew why until I met you. You awakened something in me that I’ve never felt before.” She smiled at Kris. “Me too just meant I felt the same way about you too.”
“So, let me see if I understand what is going on. Basically, you’re saying there’s no prize for answering your questions tonight?” She smiled a big goofy grin unable to hide how ecstatic she was.
“I’m the prize.” Jenna lowered her hand to Kris's shoulder and pushed her back until she was lying on the floor. Kris reached up and grabbed her shirt pulling her down on top of her. Jenna caught herself and supported her weight on her elbows. She ran her fingers through Kris's hair. “Tell me what you’re feeling.”
Kris looked up at Jenna above her. She was still in shock. She hadn’t seen this coming and was unprepared. “Honestly, I’m in shock right now. I had no idea you felt this way about me.”
Jenna sat back up pulling Kris up with her. “Well, I guess I’m a better actor than I thought. As strong as my feelings were, I felt like it was pretty obvious.”
At that moment, Jenna’s phone rang. “Sorry, I have to take this call. It’s the hospital.” She stood up and answered the phone.
Kris watched Jenna pace back and forth as she talked on the phone. After a while Jenna stopped pacing. She turned around and Kris noticed that Jenna’s shirt was completely undone. She must have popped the buttons off when she pulled Jenna down on top of her. Jenna’s shirt hung to the sides. She raised her hand to her forehead like she was thinking and her shirt fell off of her shoulder, but she didn’t try to cover back up.
For the first time, Kris had permission to stare at Jenna’s body as much as she wanted. She took in the whole picture. Jenna’s belly button piercing sparkled in the candlelight, but it wasn’t enough to distract from Jenna’s breasts begging for a release from the white satin bra imprisoning them. She was still in a trance when Jenna ended her phone call.
Jenna placed the phone back down on the end table and sat down on the couch. “Sorry about that. It was one of my interns. Hopefully, I won’t have to go in tonight, but I can’t guarantee it.”
Kris stood up and walked to the couch to take a seat at the opposite end. She put her feet in Jenna’s lap. Jenna turned more to face her. She nodded towards Jenna’s shirt. “I think I might have to buy you another shirt.”
Jenna looked down at her completely unbuttoned shirt. “I thought I felt a little draft, but don’t change the subject. How do you feel about my confession?”
Kris bit her lip. “I’ve wanted you since the first time I saw you at the hospital. I think about you constantly. I fall asleep thinking about you every night.” She sat up and straddled Jenna.
Jenna put her hands around Kris's waist and pulled her closer. “If you aren’t interested, I could always call Veronica. I think I have her number in my phone. Veronica said she had a few more moves she wanted to show me.”
Kris put her arms over Jenna’s shoulders and ran her hand up and down the back of Jenna’s neck. “Oh, really? I have a few moves of my own I’d like to show you.” She leaned down and rested her forehead against Jenna’s. Kris looked down at Jenna’s exposed chest and tight abdomen from an angle she had only fantasized about before.
Jenna could feel the electricity passing between the two of them. She placed both of her hands on either side of Kris's face and drew her gaze upward. Kris smiled exposing her perfect white teeth. She moved closer in until their noses touched and her lips playfully grazed the side of Kris's mouth. Just as Kris prepared for their first kiss, Jenna pulled back teasing her as their lips briefly touched. This was the exact moment she had waited so long for, and she wanted to savor it.
Kris opened her eyes to find Jenna looking at her with an intensity in her eyes. “Change your mind?”
“Never,” Jenna said. She pressed her lips against Kris's. Jenna sucked Kris's bottom lip between hers sending tiny intense explosions all throughout her body. She didn’t know one little kiss could have such an effect on someone. She tenderly caressed Kris's cheek. They shared a few light kisses before stopping.
Kris didn’t want to stop, but she wanted to catch a glimpse of Jenna’s beautiful face. She placed both hands on Jenna’s rapidly rising and falling chest. She could feel Jenna’s heart beating fast. Jenna’s eyes looked up at her mirroring the same intensity and emotions she was feeling.
Jenna slid one hand underneath the back of Kris’s shirt and ran her hand over Kris's back. Her skin was silky smooth like satin. She ran the fingertips of her other hand over Kris's lips before stealing another kiss. This time, Kris opened her mouth slightly and she accepted the invitation. She slid her tongue between Kris's anticipating lips and was greeted by Kris's tongue. She completely let herself go. It was everything she had imagined and more.
Kris felt a slight moan erupt from Jenna’s throat, which turned her on more. She began to grind her pelvis against Jenna. Jenna responded by sliding her fingers into the belt loops in Kris's jeans pulling her harder against her. She arched her back and tilted her head backwards. She ran her tongue over her bottom lip and drew it between her teeth as Jenna’s lips found her neck.
Jenna’s lips against Kris's neck absorbed the heat rising from her skin. She lightly kissed Kris's neck and worked her way up to her awaiting lips where she stopped briefly before nibbling on her earlobe. She felt like she was a teenager making out again, but one look at Kris reminded her she was with a woman and this was nothing she had experienced before. She had to pull away from Kris to catch her breath and give her racing heart a chance to slow down.
Kris brushed Jenna’s hair back behind her ear. “I never want to let you go.” She kissed Jenna’s forehead, nose, cheek, and chin.
Jenna took Kris's hand in hers and kissed the small scar left behind as a token of what had led to this new chapter in her life. “Then, don’t leave. Stay here with me. Your lease is up soon. Move in with me.” She paused and kissed Kris's lips. “It will be just like before, but with more perks and benefits.”
Kris laid back on the couch and thought about it. “What about Jax?”
Jenna propped her elbow up on the back of the couch. “Bring him, of course. The back yard is fenced so he can run around whenever he wants. Hell, he can have his own room if he wants.” She slid her free hand up underneath the leg of Kris's jeans. “I don’t want a wall between us anymore. I want you in bed with me.”
Kris pretended to act shocked. “But this is only our first date, which I was completely unaware of myself until just a few minutes ago.”
Jenna had worked her hand up to Kris's knee underneath her jeans. “I thought there was a joke about lesbians and U-Hauls? Besides, there is the fact that we’ve already lived together, and technically we shared a bed in Boston.”
Kris was thrilled, but she enjoyed pressing Jenna’s buttons. “Those were all platonic situations. This is different. What kind of perks and benefits are you offering?”
Jenna flashed a devious grin. “Well, we could double our wardrobe, although that probably benefits me more than you.” She positioned herself between Kris's legs. “I could do this whenever I wanted…” She leaned down and lifted the bottom of Kris's shirt enough to kiss her lower tummy. “…Or this…” Jenna moved further up to kiss Kris's neck. “…And we definitely have to add this to the list.” She gave Kris a long passionate kiss.
Jenna came up for air. “I’m willing to throw in a few other benefits that you haven’t seen yet.” She stood up and pulled Kris's hand for her to follow. “Come upstairs and let me show you.”
***
Kris
couldn’t believe how bold Jenna was. Kris liked this side of her. She liked it a whole lot. She was head over heels infatuated with Jenna, and Jenna had no problem showing her that the feeling was mutual.
When they reached the bedroom door Jenna stopped short without any warning causing Kris to slam into her back. She turned around. Her cheeks reddened. She grabbed Kris's shoulders and turned her around. “Let’s go back downstairs.”
Kris resisted and pushed her way past her. She entered the bedroom and gasped. “What is this? Did you plan on getting lucky tonight?”
Jenna hid behind her hands and peeked out between her fingers. “I didn’t do this. I asked Allie if she could watch Jax tonight because you and I had a lot of things to discuss. I asked for her help setting things up downstairs, but that’s all. She must’ve decided to take it this far.”
Kris pulled Jenna’s hands down away from her face, as she turned back around to survey the room. A bottle of champagne chilled on the nightstand between two glasses. Romantic scented candles filled the room. Rose petals covered the bed and floor.
Kris turned around quickly on her heels. “Wait a minute. You’re telling me Allie knew about this? She’s supposed to be my best friend, and she didn’t tell me anything?” She was infuriated. “Allie knew how much I liked you and how much stress it caused me, and she didn’t give me even one little hint?” She had poured her heart and soul out to Allie for months, and not once had Allie given her any indication about how Jenna felt.
Jenna put her arms around Kris's waist. “Please, don’t be mad at Allie. I confessed how I felt about you that night that we went for a walk. She confronted me about it, and I made her promise not to say anything. She didn’t lie to you, she just kept her promise to me.”
Kris knew Allie was trying to protect her from herself. There’s no way she could’ve kept it a secret if Allie had told her, and that may have ruined her relationship with Jenna before it had a chance to start. “Okay, but did she tell you how I felt because I’ve had many conversations with her about you.”
Jenna winced. “Well...she confirmed what I already knew. She just wanted us to be happy.”
Kris reached for her cell phone in her back pocket. “I’m going to call her and give her a piece of my mind right now.”
Jenna grabbed the cell phone from Kris's hand and laid it on the dresser. She took both of Kris's hands in hers. “All that matters now is you and me. We’re here right now. Honestly, we both couldn’t have made it through these past few months without her. Imagine how hard it must’ve been for her to have to deal with the two of us putting her in the middle.”
Kris smiled. “You’re right.” She looked around the room. She could imagine herself living here with Jenna. She sat down on the bed. She collected some of the rose petals in her hand and then let them fall back down between her fingers. “It would be a shame to let all this effort go to waste.” She laid back on the bed.
Jenna made her way to the edge of the bed. Kris reached up and yanked the top of Jenna’s jeans causing her to land on top of her. She nibbled on Kris's ear and licked the side of her neck. “I guess we do owe Allie that much.”
Kris nudged Jenna’s lips towards hers. She ran her tongue over Jenna’s lips before slipping it between them to explore.
Jenna sat up on her knees. She pushed her long hair back behind her ears and twisted it into a ponytail while she looked down at Kris staring up at her.
Kris slid her hands up Jenna’s thighs and her fingers converged on the button on Jenna’s jeans. She managed to get them unbuttoned and was working on the zipper when Jenna placed her hand on top to stop her. Kris took in the whole picture and framed it in her mind of Jenna on her knees straddling her with her shirt undone and hanging off her shoulders with her jeans partially unfastened.
Jenna removed Kris's hand from her zipper. “Not so fast. My clothes are practically falling off and you’re fully clothed still.” Jenna ran her finger from the top of Kris's shirt to the bottom and slipped two fingers inside the waistband of her jeans and tugged on it. “Don’t worry, I’ll get you caught up.” She leaned down and gave Kris a long and hard kiss on the lips. Her fingers fondled the top button of Kris's shirt. As she looked down, the loose strands from her ponytail fell across Kris's chest.
Kris brought her hand up and pushed Jenna’s hair to the side. She wanted to make sure she could see what Jenna was doing to her. The sight of her fingers, lips, and tongue against her skin drove her crazy.
Jenna unbuttoned the next button of Kris's shirt and kissed the newly exposed skin. She made her way down unbuttoning and kissing all the way to the last button. She ran her tongue around Kris's belly button. She worked her way back up kissing and using her tongue until she reached Kris's bra. It was the same one Kris had worn when they were at the store trying on outfits. She slipped a finger underneath the bottom band tracing it around until she found the clasp in the back.
Kris arched her back giving Jenna the opportunity to unclasp her bra with one hand. Kris wasn’t accustomed to such slow teases, but she was enjoying this experience and wanted it to last. Every nerve in her body lit up and fired like a laser show. Even her skin was overly receptive to Jenna’s touch. She was about to be sent over the edge before the real show began.
Jenna positioned her right leg between Kris's thighs. She pushed Kris's arms onto the pillows behind her head. She watched Kris lick her lips in anticipation. Kris’s breathing came in short, quick, shallow breaths causing her breasts to heave up and down underneath her bra. Jenna held Kris's hands down with one hand and caressed her face with the other.
Jenna leaned over kissing her with passion while at the same time using her leg to apply pressure against Kris's pleasure spot. She began grinding her pelvis and leg against Kris. She kissed Kris's neck and nibbled on her ear breathing hot and heavy against her skin.
The friction and kissing was enough to set off the first set of fireworks in Kris's loins. She raised her hips and moved against Jenna’s body. She wouldn’t mind doing this every night. Kris raised her head and used her teeth to pull at Jenna’s bra.
Jenna felt a slight quiver from Kris's body at its release, which was nothing compared to the fireworks she soon had planned. She made her way back down to Kris's bra and buried her face between Kris's breasts. She ran her fingers over the top of Kris's bra and pulled.
Kris sat up and Jenna pushed the rest of Kris's shirt off of her shoulders and tugged at the sleeves leaving Kris with her bra still on, but not hooked in the back. She curled her fingers around the straps on Kris's shoulders and slid the bra off.
Kris crossed her arms in front of her chest and clutched her shoulders. She was still self-conscious about her body image. She turned around and laid down on her stomach and rested her head on her arms.
Jenna pushed Kris's hair off the back of her neck and kissed it. She whispered into Kris's ear. “You’re beautiful and your body is perfect. I’m the luckiest person in the world.”
Even though Jenna couldn’t see it, Kris grinned. I’m the lucky one. Kris tried to relax but it was hard to as Jenna worked her way down her back with kisses. She was very ticklish, and she giggled as Jenna’s hair brushed across her skin. When Jenna reached the small of her back, she rolled over.
Jenna’s hands cupped Kris's breasts. Her thumbs fondled Kris's nipples. She kissed her chest and then made her way down using her tongue to encircle Kris's erect nipples. She kissed each one lightly. Her teeth grazed the right one while her hand manipulated the left one. She sucked the hard nipple between her lips while flicking her tongue across it.
Kris arched her back and pushed her pelvis against Jenna’s midsection. The sight of Jenna’s glistening tongue gliding over her body was almost enough to push her over the edge again. Her breathing increased. She couldn’t focus on anything else other than the sensation of Jenna’s warm tongue pushing, sucking, licking, exploring.
Jenna lowered her mouth down over Kris's left nipple. All she cared about
right now was pleasuring her lover. She had never felt so aroused in her life. It was intoxicating and invigorating.
Kris pulled Jenna back up to her mouth and kissed her harder and deeper than before. There was a fine line between tenderly and passionately making love and throw down, hot, dirty, lustful sex. At this point, they were literally straddling that line. She pushed Jenna back up until Jenna was kneeling over her. She ripped Jenna’s shirt off taking the buttons on the sleeves with it. She unhooked Jenna’s bra and threw it to the floor on top of the shirt. Jenna put her hands on top of Kris's and placed them on her breasts. Kris wasted no time taking over. Her fingernails brushed across Jenna’s breasts and nipples before letting her tongue take over.
Jenna put her hands on Kris's shoulders and pushed her back down onto the bed. Kris pulled her down on top of her. For the first time their bare breasts touched, making the heat between them unbearable.
Jenna’s juices really began to flow. Their breasts, tongues, stomachs, arms, legs, and pelvises became one.
Jenna supported herself on her elbows, and Kris could feel the muscles in her arms flex beneath her fingers. How could someone be so kind and gentle and built like a strong sex goddess?
Jenna couldn’t stop kissing Kris. She couldn’t get enough of her, and she wanted more. She worked her right hand down between them. Somehow, she managed to unbutton and unzip Kris's jeans. She ran her fingers on the outside over top of Kris's panties and felt how wet they were. “I must be doing something right.”
Kris responded between breaths. “You have no idea.”
Jenna got frustrated with Kris's jeans. She pulled them off and threw them on the floor leaving Kris in just her panties lying on top of the bed. She made her way back up for another seductive kiss.
Kris couldn’t believe how much control Jenna exerted. She was turned on by it. In all her fantasies involving Jenna, she envisioned herself as the one taking charge. This was a pleasant surprise for her.
