Dana’s
honest words were enough to let Alice‘s passion boil over. She lifted
her hands to hold Dana’s head against hers and locked their lips in a kiss that
hid nothing about their intentions and what they felt for each other, even if
somewhat undefined at the moment. No matter what other people say or what they themselves
say or, in Dana’s case, didn’t say to each other, Alice knew this was real. What
she felt in her arms and her lips was real. Alice knew that Dana needed time to
fully realize that. A little voice at the back of her mind gnawed at her heart,
telling her that Dana’s inability to say “I love you” back was reason enough
for panic. But another, louder, voice in both Alice‘s mind and heart agreed that Dana’s
hesitance only stems from sincerity and love. She knew that Dana cared about
her enough to not give her a half-assed “I love you.”

Feeling
Dana’s lips on hers, their bodies pressing together, the words that offered to
give everything she desired, Alice decided that she would do whatever
it takes to make sure Dana never doubted how much she loved her. “Dana…” she
whispered softly to get the brunette’s attention, trying very hard to form
coherent words while in her current position. “Dane… I just want you,” she
stated simply, cupping Dana’s cheek and letting their eyes meet. “I want you. I
want only you,” Alice repeated, so as to make sure that
her girlfriend understood her. She closed her eyes and touched their foreheads,
giving Dana a tender kiss. The blonder opened her eyes, the sureness and
honesty in them evident, she whispered, “I love you, Dana. I always have and I
always will.”

For a
split second, there was no response, no movement from either one of them. It
was as if time stopped, marking the moment in their minds’ eyes forever. Neither
wanted to break the silence or miss any minute detail. Dana was looking at Alice squarely in the eyes and then finally
released a breath she’d been holding. Her lips parted and she leaned slowly
forward, letting her nose touch Alice‘s as she caressed her face. Her
lips found Alice‘s. It wasn’t a rushed kiss, and
not slow or unsure either, but languid and unhurried while confident and sure.

Dana soon
found herself quickening the pace, her hands searching and exploring all of
Alice’s body, claiming what was given to her and she knew was rightfully hers. As
she chewed gingerly on Alice‘s lower lip, her hands worked at
the button and zipper of the blonde’s jeans. Once getting through them, with
the help of Alice‘s moans of anticipation, Dana
slipped her hand into her panties and felt Alice‘s lower lips. Another moan, but
this time it came from Dana. Alice was so wet, the brunette could not
help her reaction. Knowing and, especially, feeling how much her
girlfriend wanted her caught Dana off guard. Sure, she knew that Alice loved her, she’d told her a few
times, but feeling Alice like this heightened what she
already knew to a whole new level. And it’s not as if this was the first time
she’d touched Alice. They’d had ***** before, obviously,
but it was always about *****, it wasn’t about love-making. Now, Dana was
beginning to notice the difference. She also wondered whether she could show
Alice that difference.
