The Gathering 01.35 –  Lost
In Thought

            It was a rainy
Saturday morning in LA.  The sky was gray
with rain and clouds.  No sun was threatening;
instead it looked like the rest of the day was going to bring more of the
same.  Dreary and storm cloud ridden.

            Marina
lay in her bed; it was the first morning in a month that she’d been given the
luxury of being able to sleep in passed 6am.  She stretched her long limbs and looked out
the window, seeing the city bustling around her.

            Rain.  A sigh escaped her lips as she turned onto
her side and watched the beautiful Jenny
sleep.  How she’d been graced with the
second change, the words she’d spoken to Jenny
once echoed through her mind, “You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to
do.”  Jenny
had done something she hadn’t wanted to do; she’d fallen in love with Marina.

            In the 20/20 hind
sight of the situation, it had worked out for the best, for the both of
them.  Jenny
had found her true self and Marina
had finally been able to shed her skin of slavery to Francesca.  So why was it that she sometimes longed for
the yesterdays? 

            Marina
traced Jenny‘s jaw line, her pale as snow skin
glowing in the morning hazy light that filtered in from the windows high above
the street.  Her jet black hair a
billowing halo around her head as she moved a bit as Marina caressed her cheek,
and traveled the finger down her neck; down between her pert breast and down
the flatness of her belly.  She encircled
her belly button; and finally Jenny  She crept on blue eye open and
saw Marina‘s
eyes looking back at her.
stirred.

            “Good morning.”  Jenny
said with a cotton balled mouth, she licked her lips and covered her mouth.

            “Morning breath,
gross, so very gross.”  Marina
pushed her hand down and planted a kiss on her full lips.

            “As if that could stop
me from kissing the most delicious lips I’ve ever had the chance to
savor.”  Marina
said her voice deep and soft with meaning.

            “Is that why you woke
me up?  To tell me that?”  JennyMarina‘s
neck, her tongue leaving a wet trail to her collar bone.
giggled, nuzzling

            “No, I did not mean to
wake you at all, I was just…  Touching
you.”  Marina
said, a bit breathlessly and Jenny smiled,
finding Marina‘s
lips and kissing her, both falling back into the bed with chuckles and giggles.
