CHAPTER 39
Kristina
“They totally got it on in the bathroom,” she said.
“Oh, definitely,” Jennifer replied. “Hey, we can go back to your room or mine, or…” She took Kristina by the hand. “We could go sit outside and enjoy the warm night with our drinks in our hands and talk some more.”
“You’re turning down sex with all these free sex toys right behind us?” Kristina teased.
“I didn’t say anything about turning it down. I’m only suggesting we try a real date. We’ve done dinner. I know it was kind of a group thing, but now, we can do the after.”
“Which is sometimes sex.”
“I will take you back to that bedroom and get you naked right now, if you want. I would not complain at all if I were naked, and you were naked, and we were pressed together.” Jennifer pulled Kristina in by the hips. “I like being pressed against you.”
“But you’d like to go outside first?”
“Yes. I want to hold you on one of those chaise lounge chairs. I was thinking about it all day. I have no idea why. I have this image in my head of there being wineglasses on a table, the pool and hot tub are all lit up, there are stars in the sky, and we’re lying back, talking or even just sitting quietly, being together.
It’s peaceful. I don’t get a lot of peace back home. ”
“That sounds lovely,” Kristina replied. “Why don’t you go find us a blanket because it’ll get chilly soon, and I know you’ll keep me warm from behind, but…”
“I will grab a blanket,” Jennifer said and smiled at her.
“I’ll get the drinks. Red?”
“Whatever you’re getting is fine. I’m not picky. I’ll be right back.”
“Okay,” Kristina said.
She watched her date disappear down the hall and moved behind the bar, where she poured them two glasses of red wine, adding a little more than what would be considered a full glass because she didn’t want to have to come back inside.
Then, she retrieved a bottle of water from the kitchen and met Jennifer back in the great room.
The temperature outside was a little colder than she’d expected, but Jennifer wanted a night outside, and Kristina would give it to her if it meant they could be peaceful and still together.
“This is nice,” Jennifer noted softly once Kristina was lying back against her.
“It was a great idea,” she said as she pulled the blanket over them and relaxed more fully.
Jennifer’s arms wrapped around her then, and she kissed Kristina’s neck.
“I know I said this already and multiple times, but I had a great time last night and this morning.”
“Yes, this morning was nice, too,” Kristina agreed with a smile.
When she’d woken up, there had been three dice sitting right in front of her face.
One had showed ‘lick,’ the middle one had said, ‘pussy,’ and the third one had landed on ‘thirty minutes’ but also had something written in pencil that she’d had to bring closer to her face to read.
It had said, ‘Or, however long you want.’
She had looked around and found Jennifer standing at the end of the bed, completely naked.
“What do you say?” Jennifer had asked.
“Yes, please.”
Then, they’d made it out of the room for breakfast, but only because they’d needed to talk to Nia about them having another night together.
If they hadn’t needed to do that, they probably would’ve stayed in bed all day, choosing to skip the daily group activity, which had been a hike where they’d been paired off and given a rope that they had had to keep in one hand at all times so that their partner couldn’t get too far away from them, and they’d had to work together up part of the mountain.
Nia had put them in the same pairs as last night, which probably meant things were going well for the other pairs of women, too.
“So, that hike today was fun,” Jennifer spoke into the silence.
Well, it was mostly silent. The hot tub was on, and there were crickets, but other than that, there was only a light breeze blowing through the trees surrounding the house and backyard.
“We didn’t kill each other. I think that’s a good sign.”
“You wore a sports bra under your tank top. You were trying to kill me, weren’t you?” Jennifer teased.
“No.” Kristina laughed. “I was told to pack for a hike, and it’s hot during the day here. I had a sweater in my bag, but I didn’t need it.”
“Really? Seemed like you got chilly there when we got to the top at that lake.”
“How did you–”
“Your nipples were showing through your bra and that thin excuse for a shirt.”
Kristina laughed and replied, “I guess I shouldn’t wear that shirt again.”
“Whoa! I didn’t say that.”
Kristina laughed again, placed her arms on top of Jennifer’s, and said, “I think we worked together well.”
“I agree, and that’s surprising for me.”
“What? Why?” she asked.
“Because I am very competitive, and I tend to lead.”
“Okay… I’m still confused.”
“You led for most of the hike, and it didn’t bother me at all. Only part of that was because I got to check out your ass since I was behind you.”
“You were checking me out?”
“What part of me noticing those rock-hard nipples was confusing to you?”
“Others probably saw them, too, but I doubt they were checking me out.”
“I doubt they even noticed,” Jennifer said and ran her hand under Kristina’s shirt.
“Becky and Helena never stopped staring at each other unless they were whispering and looking at Nia weirdly. Gage and Carrie were talking and walking ahead of us the whole time. Debra and Sharon were behind us, and I heard them laughing a bunch. At the lake, everyone coupled off, and Nia just bounced between us. I would have made out with you or at least tried to get to second base had she given me more than five minutes during her rounds.”
Kristina laughed again and said, “Oh, yeah? Second base with everyone around like that?”
“We all know why we’re here. Besides, I bet if you and I had started something, the others would have, too.”
Jennifer’s hand moved higher, the other joined, and then, she was playing with Kristina’s breasts.
“This is what I wanted to do: stare out at that lake, with my hands massaging you like this.”
“This feels good.”
Kristina leaned back a little more.
“Are you cold?”
“No. Why?”
Jennifer twisted Kristina’s hard nipples playfully and said, “Then, you must be getting turned on.”
Kristina chuckled and replied, “Hard not to when I’m around you. You were checking me out, but I was staring at you, too.”
“Oh, yeah?”
Jennifer’s hand slipped into the cup of Kristina’s bra.
“I stared at your ass whenever you were behind me, but I kept looking at your neck and your fingers. God, those fingers just do things to me. They’re so long and perfect.”
Jennifer kissed her neck and said, “My parents wanted me to play the piano because my fingers were so long.”
“You never wanted to?”
“No. Cello for a minute, like I told you, but I knew what I wanted to do, and it wasn’t playing the piano. Can you take your bra off for me?”
“Out here?”
“No one’s out here, babe. They’re all in their rooms,” Jennifer said. “Please. I want to feel you.”
“Okay,” she replied and lifted herself.
But before Kristina could do anything, Jennifer lifted her shirt and had her bra unclasped.
She kissed over Kristina’s back and lifted the shirt off entirely, placing it on the table by their glasses.
She kept kissing Kristina’s back as she lowered the straps of Kristina’s bra.
Kristina took it off and let it fall between her legs.
“You too. I need to feel your skin on mine,” she said.
Jennifer didn’t hesitate. She removed her shirt and bra and pulled Kristina back against her.
Kristina pulled the blanket up to cover them and keep them warm.
Jennifer’s hands roamed her body, not settling on one spot for very long before moving on, and her lips pressed over and over again to Kristina’s neck and shoulders.
“God, this is just… It feels so good to me. I could do this part forever,” Jennifer said.
“Me too.”
She brought Jennifer’s hand to her mouth and kissed the tips of her fingers before she put the hand back on her right breast.
“Do you want to go inside, though?” Jennifer asked her. “We can, if you want.”
“I’m very good right here.”
“So am I, but…” Jennifer started and faded out while her hand slowly moved down Kristina’s body. “Undo them for me?”
Kristina undid her belt and her pants as requested, and Jennifer didn’t hesitate again. Her hand slipped straight into Kristina’s panties.
“I want more,” Jennifer said as she began stroking.
“That feels pretty good to me,” she replied, and her arm went around to the back of Jennifer’s neck.
“I want you naked and straddling me. Please,” Jennifer said.
Kristina considered it for a moment. She’d had sex in the den the other night, where there had been the possibility that someone would walk in and see her.
No one had that time, but they were outside now, and there was a chance people could come out here and see her, too, which both turned her on and scared her.
“It’s okay. We don’t have to,” Jennifer said when Kristina didn’t say anything.
“No, I want to,” she finally admitted.
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, definitely. I will say I’ve never had sex in public before. I’m not sure this counts, since no one’s around, but I’m just putting that out there. I’m a little nervous.”
“Is it wrong that I have?” Jennifer asked.
“No. And you have?”
“A few times,” Jennifer revealed.
“Tell me.”
“What? Now? We’re about to…”
Kristina removed Jennifer’s hand from her underwear, stood up, and when she turned to face Jennifer, Jennifer was staring at her with her mouth wide open.
“God, you’re so beautiful. I want to track down your ex-wife and tell her how unbelievably–”
“Jen?”
“Yeah?”
“I’m good, okay?” she said. “I love you for saying that stuff, but I’m good.”
“Okay. Sorry. I just don’t understand her.”
Kristina’s smile widened, and she said, “You don’t have to apologize for her. It’s sweet, but you don’t have to mention her again. I look at you, and I can tell you want me.”
“I do. I really, really do.”
“I know. And that’s all I need, okay?”
When Jennifer nodded slowly, Kristina kicked off her pants, followed by her bikinis.
“Your turn,” she said and moved to pull off Jennifer’s pants, letting Jennifer take care of her own underwear next.
After that, she grabbed the blanket, placed it at the end of the chaise lounge, and straddled her. Jennifer placed her face between her breasts, and Kristina pushed Jennifer’s hair back behind her neck.
“If we were rolling dice right now, there wouldn’t be a combination that could explain what I want to do to you.”
“Which is what?” she asked.
“I don’t want to fuck. I want to make love to you. I want to make you come slowly and show you how much I want you.” Jennifer looked up at her. “Can I have that?”
“Yes,” Kristina replied, leaned down, and kissed her.
