Chapter 7 #3
Elizabeth turned and looked at her, her face a lmost hopeful, or at least that’s what Ava wanted her to be.
“Elizabeth I… uh, do you…” Ava struggled to find the words.
“Would you like to join me for some dinner?” Elizabeth asked, releasing Ava from her awkward torment.
Relief washed through Ava at the suggestion. “I would love to,” she said and stood up from her stool. Her legs had become stiff, so she took a moment to stretch before joining Elizabeth at the elevator.
“How’s the food at Lavender’s?” Elizabeth asked as the elevator doors closed.
Ava’s heart pounded at the suggestion of eating at the very place where Elizabeth was staying.
Maybe she wasn’t projecting and Elizabeth wanted another night with her, too.
She opened and closed her mouth a couple of times before answering, and she could swear Elizabeth was smirking at her.
“It’s, it’s good! Lavender has some pretty fantastic chefs that work for her,” Ava finally managed to choke out.
Elizabeth nodded as the doors closed and Ava fought the urge to pull her close while they were in the confines of the elevator. Elizab eth’s cheeks seemed to be flushed, but Ava told herself that it was just her imagination.
They walked out of the hospital side by side, but neither of them spoke.
Ava led them to her car, and they made the short drive to Lavender’s.
The dinner shift was slowing down, it was getting late in the evening, but the hostess gladly found them a table where they ordered some tea and something for supper.
Ava had ordered a salad, but she was too nervous to really eat, and it seemed that Elizabeth was feeling the same way.
She had ordered a salmon fillet, but she seemed to only pick at it.
They carried on some light conversation, but Ava held back all the things she really wanted to say.
She wanted to know if Elizabeth was feeling the same about their relationship as she was—but was it even a relationship?
Ava definitely enjoyed Elizabeth’s company, and she couldn’t even begin to think about how they would stay in contact once Elizabeth was gone, but none of the words would form.
Finally, Ava suggested that they take their food to go, and the awkwardness of earlie r that evening surfaced. Ava kicked herself, because she had just assumed that Elizabeth had wanted her to stay the night, but at no point in the evening had she said or even alluded to that.
Ava lingered near the stairwell as they looked at each other, hoping for a signal. Elizabeth turned her piercing eyes to her and Ava sucked in a breath.
“Coffee?” Elizabeth suggested, and Ava felt like her heart would burst. They were ten feet from a restaurant where coffee was served, so she knew the signal for what it was.
She felt her cheeks heat as she nodded and followed Elizabeth up the stairs.
Out of the corner of her eye she caught a glance from Lavender, who happened to be working behind the front desk.
Lavender lifted an eyebrow and smirked at her, which made Ava incredibly uncomfortable, but it’s not like this was the first time she’d been taken to a woman’s room in this place.
She couldn’t help the feeling that it cheapened the moment somehow.
She knew Lavender wasn’t judging her, but still.
Elizabeth didn’t seem to notice Ava’s spiraling thoughts as she unlocked the door to her ro om and stood aside to allow Ava through.
Ava was surprised by the cleanliness of the room, though she felt she probably shouldn’t have been.
Elizabeth was extremely meticulous about everything, and to be fair, she hadn’t spent much time in the room since she’d been here.
The bed was perfectly made and all of Elizabeth’s personal items were put away and sorted.
Elizabeth took Ava’s box from the restaurant and stacked it onto hers, placing both of them in the small refrigerator.
“I don’t really want coffee,” Ava said with a chuckle as Elizabeth turned back to face her.
“Good, neither did I,” Elizabeth said. She crossed the room and before Ava could think, Elizabeth had her pressed against the door, her lips covering Ava’s.
Ava parted her lips, allowing access to Elizabeth’s probing tongue as heat flooded through her veins.
Her hands flew to Elizabeth’s face and she buried her fingers in Elizabeth’s soft hair.
Ava made quick work of the bobby pins and had Elizabeth’s hair curled in her fingers as they kissed.
Elizabeth’s hands found their way to Ava’ s waist, tugging at her blouse to free it from her pants, and Ava moaned softly into Elizabeth’s mouth when her fingers made contact with Ava’s bare skin.
She trailed her hand upward, pushing under Ava’s blouse and cupping her breast over Ava’s bra.
Ava’s heart pounded and she cursed at the inhibiting clothing.
She pulled a button loose on her blouse as she yanked it over her head and unclasped her bra before connecting with Elizabeth’s lips again.
Elizabeth’s hands roamed all over Ava’s skin.
Her fingers were soft yet firm. She pushed Ava’s bra from her shoulders and started to kiss a trail down Ava’s jaw and onto her neck.
Ava sucked in a breath as Elizabeth pinched at Ava’s peaked nipples.
Her hands were still buried in Elizabeth’s hair as she worked her kisses down Ava’s chest and pulled one of her nipples into her mouth.
Ava rolled her head against the door and moaned, the heat in her body reaching higher and higher.
Elizabeth made quick work of Ava’s pants, dropping them to the floor before hooking her fingers in the waist of Ava’s panties and pulling them down over her legs.
Her li ps trailed down Ava’s abdomen, and Ava’s mind started spinning.
Elizabeth felt so amazing, so perfect. Elizabeth picked up one of Ava’s legs and hooked Ava’s thigh over her shoulder before turning her attention to Ava’s wanting pussy.
She licked slowly, languidly, and Ava suddenly couldn’t get enough air.
She pulsed her tongue against Ava’s opening, and Ava clenched her fists in Elizabeth’s hair.
“Please…” Ava gasped. “You feel so good.”
Elizabeth started to move her tongue in lazy circles around Ava’s clit and slid two fingers into her, pulsing for a moment before adding a third.
“Is this what you want?” Elizabeth asked.
“Yes…. oh god, yes…” gasped Ava.
Ava could feel Elizabeth’s fingers stretching her and she cried out in pleasure. Elizabeth curled her fingers until they pressed against Ava’s G spot deep inside her. Her vision darkened and Ava saw stars at the edges as tension coiled tighter inside her.
With another quick couple of thrusts of Elizabeth’s fingers, Ava’s world shattered.
Wave after wave of orgasm hit her and she felt her wetness gushing down the inside of her th igh as she struggled to keep her balance on the one leg.
Elizabeth pumped her fingers harder, drawing out the pleasure (and the hot liquid) as long as possible while Ava was left gasping and moaning against the door.
Elizabeth rose from the floor, dropping Ava’s leg back to balance herself.
She took her fingers and traced them against Ava’s lips watching her reaction.
Ava took them in her mouth instinctively and sucked them clean, heat once again pooling in her core.
Elizabeth’s face was dark and almost feral, and Ava’s adrenaline spiked.
She pushed Elizabeth toward the couch, kissing her hard until she landed on the cushions.
Ava pulled the blouse over Elizabeth’s head and then started to work on unfastening her trousers. She quickly had Elizabeth’s clothes on the floor. She pressed Elizabeth’s knees apart and kissed the inside of each thigh. Elizabeth dug her fingers into Ava’s hair, and her pulse skyrocketed.
“Oh, you do things to me, baby,” Elizabeth murmured. “You are so fucking sexy. Nobody makes me wet like this.”
Ava dove hungrily in between Elizabeth’s legs w ith her mouth, licking and sucking at her until Elizabeth cried out in pleasure.
Ava pushed her fingers inside of Elizabeth, her opening hot and wet.
She started pumping her fingers and licking in quick circles around Elizabeth’s clit.
Elizabeth bucked her hips against Ava’s mouth, but Ava continued fucking her until Elizabeth came apart beneath her.
Elizabeth threw her head back and cried out as the waves rushed over her.
Ava stayed inside her until her pulse slowed and finally the waves subsided.
Ava smiled and slid up onto the couch next to Elizabeth.
Her pants were still wrapped lazily around one ankle and her blouse was wadded on the couch behind her, but they stayed like that, in a comfortable but hurried position until Ava finally got up and moved to the bathroom.
She grabbed a robe for herself and for Elizabeth and when she returned, Elizabeth was rounding up the clothes where it seemed they had thrown them all over the room.
Elizabeth shrugged into the robe while Ava watched and bit her lip.
Neither of them spoke, nor did they want to.
The room had a luxurious bathtub, and Ava didn’t even bother to ask before running the water.
Before long, they were soaking in the warm water scented with lavender.
Ava felt her muscles relax, and Elizabeth was almost glowing with relaxation.
Ava could feel the heat rising in her again as Elizabeth started to stroke her leg beneath the water, and without a second thought Ava slid up to her and kissed her again tasting sex on her lips and liking it.
