Dana kissed Alice one more time before opening her car door and heading up to her house. Alice quickly followed and was standing close behind as Dana fumbled with her keys. She placed her hand on Danas hip, leaning in and softly kissing the back of the flustered womans neck. Finally, after much trial and error, Dana managed to unlock the door. She flipped on the light to the front hall and stepped inside. Alice followed Dana into the kitchen.

“Ummm, want something to drink?” Dana asked nervously, scratching her forehead. Alice chuckled.

“Youd think after our failed relationships combined wed be better at this. But sure, gimme something cold.” Alice smiled.

Dana giggled at Alices joke, appreciating the attempt to lighten the mood. She couldnt deny her attraction to Alice, but the transition from friend to, well, more than friend was proving to be more challenging than she expected. In ways, their history made their new intimacy better, but stepping over the boundaries into becoming lovers was tricky, and they were both trying to navigate that path right now.

Dana reached into her refrigerator. “Umm, juice, soda or beer?” Dana grabbed two beers, already knowing Alices answer.

“Beer” Alice answered, just as Dana handed her one. She twisted off the cap and took a long sip. The beverage managed to cool her racing pulse slightly, but her nerves were still on edge. She took another sip, before placing the bottle on the countertop.

This is bullshit, Dana is not some chick I just met at a bar, and Im not gonna waste the night on stupid ***** awkward silence. With this thought in her head, Alice walked quickly and steadfastly across the kitchen. Danas brow creased and she looked at Alice with confusion. Alice reached out, removing the beer from her hand and placing it on the nearby table. Looking back at Dana, she couldnt help but smile.

In the dim light, Dana looked absolutely beautiful. Her hair was down, and it reflected the shaft of moonlight that drifted through the nearby window. For someone who could be so physically strong, Dana suddenly looked breakable, and it pulled deeply at Alices heart. Tonight is the night, thought Alice before leaning in to kiss Dana.

Alices hands quickly moved to Danas hips, and with gentle force she pushed Dana back, until she bumped into the fridge. A couple magnets clattered onto the tiled floor, the sound echoing throught the room, but neither women noticed or cared.

While Dana had been caught off guard by Alices aggressive approach, she was now overwhelmed by the power of their kiss, the sheer magnetism between the two women, and a shiver rippled through her body. Her knees went weak, and she braced herself against the fridge as she felt Alices body press against hers. Dana let her hands wander down over the curve of Alices *****, up over her hips and up her back. She gently crooked her hands under Alices arms, and grazed her thumbs over Alices *****, causing her nipples to harden on contact. Alice smiled into the kiss, and pulled back for a second to give Dana a sultry/ quizzical look.

Dana smiled, but then felt her breath catch as she felt Alices warm, moist lips on her neck. At the same time she also felt Alices hand inch up from her waist to her collarbone, and begin to unbutton, slowly, torturously, the buttons of her blouse. With each button, a warm kiss was placed on the newly exposed skin, until Alice was kissing just above where the two cups of Danas bra met. She quickly undid the rest of the buttons of the shirt, exposing Danas smooth, toned stomach. Alice heard Dana gasp slightly as she grazed her hand over one of Danas *****, trailing her fingers slowly down to her belly button, so she was surprised when she felt Dana push her away.

Alice looked up with confused expression. Dana just grabbed her hand and yanked her towards the kitchen door. She gasped out one word as she pulled the two of them down the hall.

“Bedroom.”

When they reached the bedroom, it was if Dana finally realized this was her territory, and it was her turn to take control. She turned to face Alice, and placed her hands on the other womans shoulders. With one hard shove, Alice found herself flat on her back on Danas bed.

“Dana, Jesus, whats gotten into you?” Alice grinned, but didnt get an answer because suddenly Dana was on top of her, and their tongues were once again playing against each other. She was surprised by the intensity and passion of Danas kiss. Who woulda’ thought Dana to be so feisty in the bedroom?

Alice pushed Dana up, so that Dana was straddling her lap. ~Hmmmm, deja- vous?~ Panting, she pushed Danas open blouse down her muscular arms, and Dana quickly shook it off and threw it onto the floor. Alice leaned in and gently kissed the top of Danas cleavage. She let her tongue glide along the lacy edge of the bra, and smiled when she heard Dana moan softly, tilting her head back as her ***** tingled and tightened under her bra.

Alice’s hands came up and she ran her thumbs over Danas erect nipples. One of her hands glided behind Dana’s back, and she expertly unclasped the bra with one hand. Dana giggled slightly at this. Alice simply whispered “Practice makes perfect.”

As Alices fingers trailed along Danas milky smooth, bare back, Dana now worked on Alices shirt buttons, hurriedly yanking them open, and then pushing the shirt off. She wasted no time, and reached behind Alice, undoing the clasp and removing her silk bra in one movement.

Dana pushed Alice onto her back again, leaning down and kissing the edge of Alices breast. Alice gasped slightly, as she felt the warm tip of Danas tongue just graze across her nipple. She arched her back expectantly, silently begging Dana for more.

It seemed all of this waiting, and focusing on Bette and Tina, had built up both Alices and Danas sexual tension to a breaking point. Now they were both hungrily devouring each other, so to speak.

Danas hands ran down Alices stomach to the edge of her skirt. She slowly pulled down the zipper that ran along the hip-line, exposing Alices smooth thigh. Alice squirmed as Dana pulled the satiny fabric down, until Alice was only in her silk undies and strappy sandals. The sandals were soon kicked off and across the room.

Dana took a moment to absorb Alices body with her eyes before moving back in and taking a hardened nipple into her mouth, grazing her teeth slightly over the sensitive, dusty- rose colored skin. Alice sighed in ecstasy, her fingers tangled in Danas hair. She felt the warm sensation of Danas hand on her thigh, lightly grazing her fingertips against the smooth skin. Goosebumps rose instantly, and Alice involuntarily shivered. Dana giggled softly before moving her mouth from Alices ***** back up to her mouth.

This kiss she made slow and deep, tasting Alice, feeling the countours of her mouth and tongue. Danas hand trailed up from the soft skin of Alices thigh, over the silk panties. She moaned quietly when she felt a slight wetness, it set off something primal in her, and before she knew it, she was moving down Alices body, kissing flushed patches of skin as she went. Using both hands, she took hold of the underwear, and shimmied them down Alices legs. She placed delicate kisses on Alices calves and inner thighs as she moved back up after tossing the silk garment to the floor. Alice was trembling slightly now, as she reached out to stroke Danas smooth hair.

“DanaOh my god, Dana.” Was all she managed to whisper.

Dana glanced up, the look on Alices face was one she would remember forever, it was a mixture of vulnerability, lust, anticipation. She smiled, slipping her hands under Alices quivering knees, holding the tops of her thighs. Ever so gently, she eased Alices thighs apart, feeling them tremble under her touch. Dana wanted to make this special, she wanted to be gentle, touch every part of Alice, her soul included. She kissed up the smooth thigh, until she felt Alices hair tickle her cheek. Alices desire was apparent, Dana could smell it, feel the warmth close to her face.

Again, Dana cast a glance back up at Alices face. Locking eyes, Dana leaned in and placed the lightest of kisses on Alices center. Alice let out a silent gasp. She was feeling things she had never experienced before, not just physically. Her heart was burning for Dana. She had never wanted a woman as much as she desired Dana right now.

Danas movements started out slow, gentle kisses, slights caresses with her tongue. She could feel Alices heat growing, could feel the increase of moisture on her lips. She reached her hand up, taking Alices and locking their fingers together. As she continued to push Alice closer to the brink of control, they gripped hands tighter.

Danas mouth was now moving aggressively, spreading Alice apart, moving inside her, then moving back up to her ***** and sucking forcefully. Alice felt herself quickly reaching the edge, and squeezed Danas hand.

“Dana, wait.” She gasped.

She pulled Danas hand, indicating for her to move up. Dana complied, a bit confused, trying to look into Alices eyes. Dana gasped when suddenly she felt Alice slip two fingers into her. Alice then took Danas hand, the one she had been gripping so tightly, and placed it between her legs.

“Together.” She whispered.

She leaned in, devouring Danas mouth. Simultaneously the women found a single rhythm, and together they moved to it, until both were quickly reaching their peak. Then, at the same time, Alice and Dana felt a tight gripping around their fingers. Dana pulled back from the kiss and placed her moist forehead against Alices, and stared into her eyes as they came. Their cries were involuntary and gutteral as wave after wave of pleasure washed over the women.

Exhausted, Danas taut body collapsed onto Alices, and she kissed her shoulder while trying to catch her breath.

Alice pushed Dana gently, rolling her onto her side. She stared into Danas eyes, no words necessary right now to explain how she was feeling. She had never felt so connected with anybody in her entire life. Dana seemed to understand and leaned in for a soft, lingering kiss as if to affirm the feeling.

Danas arms reached out, pulling Alice to her, who quickly snuggled into the embrace as she let out a long, satisfied sigh. Their fingers grazed each others warm, moist skin, and slowly, their pulses began to return to normal. Just as both women drifted off into blissful sleep they both whispered quiet words into the others ears.

“I love you.”
