“Well, what do you wanna hear
then?” Dana retorted teasingly, her hands still pinned above her head.
She looked Alice in the eyes, determined to match wits with her. But
when blue eyes met brown ones, the teasing had disappeared, and only
utter desire and longing was left. They held the gaze for what may have
been seconds or minutes, it wouldn’t have mattered to either of them.
They were searching for something in that look and eventually they
found it.

Alice swallowed apprehensively, deciding that she wanted those words
she’d been waiting for to be uttered again. She leaned in closer to
Dana, their lips touching as she spoke, “I wanna hear you tell me
again… say it to me, Dana.” Alice closed the tiny gap between them
and let her lips melt into Dana’s in a slow but hungry kiss.

Dana responded both to the kiss and to Alice’s request as she spoke
breathily against the blonde’s lips. “I love you, Al… I love you…”
With the firmness of sincerity in her words, Dana started to push
herself up, moving them onto a sitting position, with Alice now
straddling her lap. “Ohh… I am soooo in love with you…” Dana said
hoarsely, taking control of the kiss as she cradled Alice’s head in her
hands and devoured her mouth. Their faces were pushed so impossibly
close they almost seemed to mold together.

But apparently, not close enough. Alice could feel the fire burning
inside her, ready to explode if stoked any further. She couldn’t handle
this! She wanted more of Dana! She raised a hand to touch Dana’s
shoulder to signal her to stop so they could breathe. “Dana …I–I
want you… now.” The blonde couldn’t help it. The tension inside her
body, added with every inch of her skin that was lucky enough to be
touching and tasting Dana, made her voice quiver in a way that never
happened before when they had *****. She felt like a *****-crazed teenager
for asking Dana with quivering words and whimpers, but it was just too
much for her too handle. “…please, Dane. I ca– you can’t tell me
words like that a–and not touch m–” Her words were cut short by
Dana’s lips continuing the intense kiss that broke for air just mere
seconds before. The blonde moaned when she felt Dana’s hands make their
way to the hem of her tank top.

“Oh *****… no no no!” Dana whispered, abruptly stopping the kiss and
muttering to herself. Alice looked at her, now it was her turn to be
surprised by the change in mood. At seeing the look on her girlfriend’s
face, Dana tried to explain in her usual babbly manner. “Oh, baby, I’m
sorry. *****! I didn’t mean you… I-It’s just… this is our first
time. Well, technically, it isn’t our first time because, hello, we’ve
had ***** before and …what really is the difference between this and
*****, right? …I mean, ***** was like the official kickoff of our
relationship. But what I’m trying to say is that…” Dana paused
momentarily and caught Alice’s eyes, which looked at her patiently.
