Chapter 26
Reuniting
Los Angeles
Wednesday evening and Amy had little butterflies of excitement, looking forward to seeing Luisa for the first time since Monday morning.
They were meeting for a drink at a bar near to Amy’s hotel, very much a casual place and Amy had gone back to her room after work to change with that in mind, wearing white jeans and a blue top that she knew made her look good…
Amy’s competitive streak was kicking in with the knowledge that Luisa had just spent forty eight hours in the close company of some very attractive women.
Just as the drinks she’d ordered arrived Amy saw Luisa, wearing a short skirt, knee high boots and a strappy top, come through the door and waved to her. Luisa walked over with a huge grin on her face, giving Amy a hug like it had been years rather than two days since they’d seen each other.
“I missed you,” Luisa whispered as she held Amy.
“I missed you too,” Amy replied, letting go of Luisa so that she could sit down next to her. “I got us some drinks,” she continued, “I hope you don’t mind?”
“Perfect.” Luisa looked around the bar, which was busy with the after work crowd, music playing at a bearable level. “I’ve wanted to come here for a while, it seems nice.”
They started catching up, talking about what they’d each been up to.
Amy didn’t have a huge amount to impart, but there was some frustration with how her work had gone that she explained and Luisa lent a sympathetic ear, asking the right sort of questions at the right times.
Soon the first drink became a second and some food.
“Anyway…,” Amy said. “Enough about me. How about you? How was work?”
“Oh, it was good thanks. Solana's got big plans."
"You said you invested?"
Luisa smiled. "A little. My agent thinks I've gone crazy.
They offered me either the usual fee structure, which would have been very lucrative, or a mix where I also get equity in the business.
" She shrugged. "A model's career is time limited.
.. I thought it would be sensible to diversify.
And, I figure, if I'm invested it makes it harder for them to fire me as their face. "
Amy started laughing, thinking back to a strategy course she'd done once. "You've created an exit barrier."
"Something like that..."
"Tell me about the plans."
They spent the next drink talking it through, starting with the brand's launch a few months before in Austin, the weirdness of attending a launch party where your picture is projected thirty feet high on the walls and everyone wants to talk to you.
It sounded to Amy as if this was, genuinely, a serious company getting started, even with a young and inexperienced founder.
Their expansion plans were ambitious but achievable, and it sounded like they were based on solid assumptions.
"The founder... Solana, right? If she needs a good lawyer..."
Luisa laughed. "I'd be delighted to put her in touch with you. Or anyone at your firm."
"What's she like?"
Amy asked it openly, but felt her pulse race a little when she saw how Luisa shifted in her seat at the question, her eyes looking down briefly at her drink. There's something there, she realised.
"I'm no good at keeping secrets," Luisa said after a moment. "You really want to know?"
Know what? "I... I guess, yeah, if there's something you want to share."
Luisa shrugged. "I slept with her."
Amy started nodding, wanting to act cool, even though she felt something strange happen inside.
.. she knew they were open, but she hadn't expected Luisa to be so honest about what she'd done over the last few days.
She wasn't quite sure what she thought about that, not while she'd been sat herself in a hotel room missing Luisa, and she realised that she'd started to babble.
"Ok... that's cool... I mean, it's fine, right... that's what we... an open relationship, right…" She stopped when she saw that Luisa was laughing.
"Not yesterday."
"Oh."
"No, we... it's a long story, but the short version is that when I first went down to the ranch there was something.
Months ago. Before you. But we decided that it couldn't happen.
It was, like, a couple of day thing but there's nothing there now.
Strictly professional. Well, me and her hang out with her friends when I'm down there, but there's nothing more. "
Amy smiled ruefully. "That's... look, it'd be cool if you had. We're open after all. It's just... my reaction..."
"What?" Luisa looked intrigued.
"The selfie you sent. Was that with Solana?"
Luisa nodded. "Solana's the dark haired woman. The blonde is Kelly, she's great fun."
"So... I'm going to regret telling you this, I'm sure, but..." Amy trailed off, having second thoughts.
"What?" Luisa laughed. "You can't tease me like that and not tell me."
"I might have... I guess, imagined you and Solana. I'd guessed there might have been some history, and the two of you together..." Amy shrugged. "It got my imagination going."
Luisa looked into Amy’s eyes, then whispered, “Got your imagination going how?”
Smiling shyly, Amy replied as quietly as she could, “I think you can guess… imagining, you know, you and her…” Amy could feel herself getting turned on at the thought.
Leaning over right next to Amy’s ear, she surprised Amy by planting a soft kiss on her neck, then whispered, “Me and her doing what?” She kissed Amy’s neck again.
“Not in public,” whispered Amy. “I’ll tell you later.” Amy’s senses were on fire, and she got the feeling that Luisa was in a similar predicament.
Luisa kissed her neck again, then said, “Let’s get the cheque. And then let’s see how quickly we can get back to your hotel room.” Her smile left little doubt for Amy as to what her intentions were once they got there.
***
The two women nearly fell through the door to the hotel room, all over each other before the door was even unlocked.
Luisa was quick to lead Amy through to the bedroom, pulling Amy’s top and bra off between kisses, discarding them on the floor in the living room, before kneeling down to take off her jeans and underwear next to the bed.
Amy returned the favour, taking off Luisa’s top, skirt and underwear. The two women fell on to the bed naked, wrapped around each other, hands everywhere, kissing fiercely.
Before too long Luisa’s hand slid between Amy’s legs, and Amy’s hand did the same with Luisa, both women touching each other gently and then with increased urgency as they each responded to the other.
As Amy let out a quiet moan, Luisa whispered, “Tell me what you imagined…”
“Now?” Amy half-breathed, half-moaned.
“Now.” Luisa let out a moan of her own.
“It was…” another moan, “you and her, naked, together in your room at the ranch.”
“Go on…” Luisa whispered, both their fingers working at each other.
“She… well, you were tied,” another moan, “… your wrists were tied to the bed frame, lying on your back.”
Luisa looked at Amy with an expression of pure lust. “Sexy…” she whispered. “And…?” Luisa gasped as Amy continued to touch her.
“And she was wearing a strap on, lying on top of you, making love to you.” Amy let out a louder moan, the thought of that pushing her closer. “You were climaxing again and again as she fucked you, and she kept going, and you were both kissing… it was messy…”
“That sounds so hot…” A long, shuddering moan came from Luisa’s lips. “Was it hot?”
“So… fucking… hot.” Amy could really feel her orgasm building now, she was right on the edge.
They continued touching each other, kissing again, their breathing getting faster as Luisa got close too.
"Did you like..." another moan, then, "... watching us?"
"Yes..."
“Did you touch yourself thinking about me and her?”
“Yes…”
"All alone in your hotel room? Imagining me and her…" Luisa paused and grinned, "…fucking."
"Yes"
Luisa kissed her again before breaking off to whisper, “Will you fuck me like that sometime?” Then she kissed Amy again.
That was all it took to push Amy over the edge, the thought that Luisa might want that done to her in real life.
As she came, she said as quietly as she could, “Only if you’ll do it to me too…
” before the moans got louder and the orgasm rocked through her.
Luisa responded to Amy’s orgasm and came herself, her moans mixing with Amy’s as they both tried to keep on touching each other while also riding the wave of their own orgasm.
Finally, they both came down from the heights, collapsed together in a tangle of arms and legs, kissing gently and laughing. “I missed you,” laughed Luisa, breathlessly.
“It was only two days!” replied Amy, laughing too.
“Exactly.”
***
Several hours later they were lounging on the sofa in the living room area of Amy’s hotel room, both wearing hotel dressing gowns and not a lot else.
Unsurprisingly that mutual climax had been the first of several for both women so far that night.
The sex with Luisa was something else, Amy reflected, consistently as good as anything else she’d done in her life.
Luisa’s head was resting against the arm of the sofa, her legs draped across Amy who was also semi-reclined at the other end. They’d been chatting and flirting for a while. Luisa was currently teasing Amy about some of the British stereotypes.
“If I look in your suitcase right now, I’m going to find that you packed teabags, aren’t I?” Luisa laughed.
“Maybe…” Amy admitted reluctantly.
“Really?” Luisa faked incredulity. “I thought that was a myth!”
“You got me. I’ll get you drinking proper tea before I fly home. That’s a promise.”
Luisa smiled at that, and Amy grinned. Amy reached out to take Luisa's hand in hers.
“This is nice…” Amy continued. “Really nice. I’m… this," she gestured around them, "all seems to improbably."
"It does. Nice though."
They sat in easy silence for a few minutes, holding hands and enjoying simply being with each other.
“Oh, I nearly forgot to say. I’m going to be in Europe for a shoot in a few weeks.”
Amy tried to act cool but failed utterly. “That’s amazing… it’s your first time, right?”
“Yeah… and I was thinking I’d like to come and visit you for a change while I’m over. If you’d like that?”
“Definitely… you’re more than welcome.” Amy smiled ruefully. “I don’t know exactly where I’ll be living by then, I'm still sorting out the fine details, but wherever it is I’d love you to stay with me. Where in Europe?”
“Italy. Amalfi I think? Does that sound right?”
“Any chance you get a plus one?” Amy was only half-joking… she loved Italy.
“Sorry to say but it doesn’t really work like that.”
“A girl can ask.” Amy sat in silence for a few moments, thinking it through… Luisa coming to London. She’d enjoy that, both of them would, and Amy would love to show her a bit of her world.
They ended up chatting for a while about what they could do as part of Luisa visiting, before they settled again into that easy, relaxed silence that worked so well between them.
“So… I’ve got a question,” Amy said eventually.
“Ok…?”
“When I told you what I’d imagined earlier…”
“Yes…?”
“And you asked me to do something like that to you in real life…”
“Yes…?” Luisa smiled shyly as she said it, clearly catching on to where Amy was going.
“Did you mean it?”
Luisa paused for a few moments, looking into Amy’s eyes, before she said, “I think so. I mean, I’ve not done anything quite like that before, but it sounded fun.” She gave Amy’s hand a squeeze. “Have you done something like that?”
Amy nodded.
“Really?” Luisa’s eyes had widened in surprise.
“Yes, really. It’s good, very good in the right situation with the right person.”
“You’ve done that a lot?”
Amy shrugged. “Yes… my ‘not-girlfriend’ as you called her once is really into that sort of thing. She likes to be the one tying someone up using toys. And…” Amy caught herself just in time, remembering her promise to Sarah not to tell anyone about how their roles had switched.
She might have been falling hard for Luisa, but she wasn’t going to breach that confidence.
Instead, Amy simply said, “I’d like to try it too. Both ways round.”
Amy knew by now what an aroused Luisa looked like, and she could tell that the prospect of them experimenting was having an effect on her. “Do we need to buy some things?” Luisa asked.
“Let’s go shopping on Saturday. It would be fun to do that together. Are there any classy shops selling that sort of thing?”
“I’ve got a few friends who might know, I’ll ask.”
They sat for a little longer, then Luisa said, “Thinking about Saturday, it’s a friend’s birthday party in the evening. I’d love to take you along, if you’d like to meet some people?”
“Introducing me to you friends,” Amy teased with a grin. “This is getting serious!” Seeing Luisa blush, Amy continued, “I’d love to do that, I can’t wait.”
