CHAPTER 31 #2
Eline went to bend over, but Arlowe held her in place.
She could tell that Eline was nervous, so she leaned in and kissed her gently while she reached around Eline’s back for her bra clasp, which she undid.
She didn’t pull out of the kiss but moved her body back just a bit and lowered the bra away from Eline’s body, dropping it to the floor right after, letting it join the sweater and shirt.
Then, she moved back in, pressing their bodies together, and earned a moan from Eline.
“I missed you so much,” Eline said, her lips against Arlowe’s.
“I know, baby. I missed you, too.”
She reached for the button on Eline’s jeans, undid it, and lowered the zipper next, knowing in that moment that she’d never be with another woman like this again.
She’d only ever take off Eline’s clothes like this, be pressed up against her like this, and touch her like this.
She lowered herself down Eline’s body until she was on her knees in front of the woman whom she wanted to worship, and she pulled the jeans down Eline’s legs, letting her kick them off the rest of the way.
Then, she helped Eline out of the cute blue socks that she’d been so worried about a minute ago and looked up at her, taking a deep breath before she looked down again and was met with white cotton bikinis.
She took Eline’s hips in her hands next and placed her lips to her stomach, kissing the heated flesh with little pecks, and other times, with an open mouth.
Eline gasped, and Arlowe moved her hands to the hem of the underwear that she wanted off.
She pulled down until they were around Eline’s ankles and let her take care of the rest as she stood back up and moved them both to the bed.
“Lie down, beautiful,” she said.
Eline looked almost transfixed as she first sat on the bed, but she moved back until her head hit the pillow, and Arlowe stared at her, wondering if she looked just as transfixed because Eline was beautiful.
Soft skin, curves and plains, and a little mole just to the right of her belly button that Arlowe remembered kissing nearly every night when they’d been together the first time.
She climbed on top of Eline as Eline spread her legs, letting her settle her hips between them, and they continued to stare.
“Sorry, I think I just need a minute,” she said, shaking her head. “This is…”
“Important?”
“I was going to say big, but yes, that, too.”
Eline wrapped her arms around Arlowe’s neck and said, “Press yourself into me, Arlowe. I need to feel you.”
Arlowe lowered her hips until their centers were aligned, and she let out a breath. Eline seemed to catch it with her open mouth as she gasped.
“You’re perfect,” Eline said.
“Perfect fit?”
“That too,” Eline replied with a smile.
She brought Arlowe down to her and kissed her a little harder this time, but Arlowe didn’t want them to rush.
She wanted to savor every moment of this fresh start that they’d earned.
That memo hadn’t exactly reached her hips, though, and as they kissed, they began to rock into Eline, who spread her legs even farther apart.
“Can we go slow?” she asked.
“Yes,” Eline whispered.
Arlowe rubbed her nose against Eline’s and gave her a little smile, too, before she began placing kisses to Eline’s jaw, kissed down Eline’s neck, and then licked the skin there before she sucked on Eline’s earlobe, feeling soft hands roam over her back.
“I want to kiss you everywhere,” she whispered into Eline’s ear before she moved her lips to her collarbone and placed open-mouthed kisses there.
“I might not be able to wait that long,” Eline replied.
“Oh, I have faith in you,” she teased, nuzzling her nose against Eline’s nipple. “Are these still just as sensitive?”
“Yes,” Eline confirmed.
“Good,” she said and sucked the bud between her lips.
“Oh!”
Arlowe flicked it with her tongue while still holding on to it and felt Eline begin to move her body against her.
“If you want to go slow, you should stop,” Eline suggested.
Arlowe let go of the nipple, but she continued to lick it for a while before switching to the other one and giving it the same treatment.
“Arlowe, please,” Eline said.
Arlowe looked up, met Eline’s imploring eyes, and then rolled her hips down into her girlfriend, who closed her eyes.
Arlowe moved down Eline’s body, kissed her stomach, and, finding that mole, she kissed the spot like she had years ago.
Moving lower still next, she settled between Eline’s legs and licked the inside of her thigh, earning a moan.
“God, I want you,” she said, placing her nose at Eline’s center and breathing her in.
“Anything,” Eline replied breathlessly. “Anything you want. I just… need you.”
Arlowe wanted to take her then and there, but she also wanted slow, and well, something else; something that she’d only ever done with one woman. She moved back up Eline’s body and kissed her hard, letting Eline wrap her arms back around Arlowe’s neck.
“Can I?” she asked as she reached between them.
“Yes,” Eline said, likely knowing what she wanted.
Arlowe hovered a bit over her then, watched Eline spread herself for her, and did the same before she lowered herself back down.
“God, yes,” Eline said, tilting her head back.
Arlowe couldn’t agree more. She began to move against Eline, letting their clits touch, and they were kissing softly at first, taking the time to build, but Arlowe could feel how wet they both were.
She knew that it might not take long at all because she was rocking into Eline as Eline lifted herself into her in time with Arlowe’s hips, and they were both breathing hard into each other’s mouths.
“I love you,” she said, feeling herself begin to crest.
“I love you,” Eline replied.
Arlowe couldn’t hold on much longer.
“You feel so good,” she said and cupped Eline’s breast. “I can’t–”
“It’s okay,” Eline told her. “Me too.”
Arlowe kissed her until she couldn’t anymore. Then, she pressed her forehead to Eline’s, and she came hard, but also softly somehow. Eline was right behind her, and for the first time in forever, Arlowe heard the sounds she had missed so much.
She wasn’t sure how much time had passed, but she was still pressing her forehead to Eline’s after they’d both come down. Eline’s hands were in Arlowe’s still-wet hair, and she was shushing her for some reason.
“It’s okay, baby. I’m right here.”
Eline kissed Arlowe’s cheeks, and Arlowe realized that she was kissing her tears away.
“I just…” She sniffled.
“I know. Me too,” Eline said, pulling her closer against her body. “God, me too.”
