“Yeah... yeah I think I would like that” Kerry replied and grinned. “But it’s getting late now... I need to get going, I have a shift tomorrow morning...” She started rising from the couch and looked around for her crutch which was leaning against a table, forgotten and alone.

Kim felt a stab in her stomach. She didn’t want this night to end, not when they were so close to a break-through, but she too rose to escort her companion to the hall.

“Yes... yes I work tomorrow too. But the week has more days” she said and laughed a little.

Together they walked towards the door, both silent but back where they started. They felt happy, comfortable, friendly again. No need for excuses or apologies; just spending time together was enough.

By the door, Kerry slipped her arm out of her crutch again to lean it against the wall, it being in the way of her putting her shoes and coat on. Kim wanted to say good bye before the redhead did so though, needing to prolong her stay as much as possible.

“Well, I guess I’ll see you tomorrow” Kerry stated, looking Kim in the eyes from her standing next to the coat rack.

“Yeah, sure you will” Kim smiled, and leaned in towards her friend to kiss her on the cheek. Kerry too leaned in and returned the gesture, but when they pulled back the atmosphere had once again changed. Kerry’s eyes were glazed over and so were Kim’s. The hand Kim had put on Kerry’s cheek was still lingering there, not wanting to leave, and suddenly they were kissing, not each others cheeks like the seconds before but on the lips, hungrily and almost desperately. Kerry clung to her blonde friend and Kim held the redhead tight to her, plunging her tongue into her mouth and kissing her with greed. Kerry felt her knees weaken and took a few steps backwards, and Kim followed her lead, pressing her into the wall that was right behind them. Kerry moaned when her back made contact with the cool wall, the intensity of the moment suddenly announcing its presence.  

Without thinking, Kim started unbuttoning her friend’s white blouse, needing to feel the redhead’s bare skin underneath her hands. Kerry broke their kiss and gasped for air, leaning her head back against the wall, and closed her eyes. Kim started kissing her neck and throat, still unbuttoning that blouse. Kerry raked her fingers through those blonde curls, not thinking one coherent thought. It felt so good to let Kim touch her... So good.

Kim had reached that spot underneath her ear and was kissing it gently.

“You’re so beautiful” she murmured into Kerry’s ear, and Kerry could feel her entire posture buckle. Oh. My. God.

She let her hands find the edges of Kim’s slacks, and pulled the blue silky shirt out of them. She tilted her head to find the other woman’s lips, and kissed her deeply while exploring the soft skin of her tummy with her palms. In the meantime, the blonde had finished unbuttoning her blouse and pushed it over her shoulders. Kerry shook herself out of it and grabbed Kim’s shirt to pull it over her head, her friend raising her arms willingly. The blonde hair mane gained a wild and dishevelled look from the action, and Kerry chuckled when she saw it. “Your hair looks like a lion’s mane” she giggled against Kim’s lips, and Kim almost burst out laughing.

They stumbled together into what Kerry knew had to be Kim’s bedroom, but she never got a chance to take a look around. Before she knew it, her pants were off, as was her bra, and she was lying on her back among soft pillows in this dark room, with her friend Kim above her, kissing and touching her, and she kept her eyes shut, savouring the moment in her physical memory. Everything seemed to be spinning around, soon she was naked and so was Kim, their bodies pressing into one another. Kim’s breasts against her own, Kim’s mouth on hers, and then on her throat, her breasts, her nipples, her tummy, and lower, too low, or no, not low enough...

“Please Kim, I can’t stand waiting” Kerry gasped, and Kim felt her entire body trembling from the arousal this woman awoke in her, and she gave in to her friend’s request.

Kerry arched her neck into the pillow, softly moaning and clutching the blonde curls, the sheets underneath her, her body writhing, her mouth moaning. Kim kissing her thighs, Kim above her, Kim inside her, Kim in her head, her heart, her voice.

“Oh my God, Kim..........................”

The very second she opened her eyes in the morning, Kerry felt something was different. Instead of the window of her own bedroom, the first thing she saw was a door leading into a bathroom. The room was rather dark since it was still early, and the pillows in the bed were big and white. She could feel a soft body pressing into her back, and a warm hand cupping her breast.

Kim.

“Oh dear” Kerry thought and shut her eyes tightly. She swallowed, trying to decide whether she should panic or not. For several minutes she was just lying there, contemplating whether to curl up and hide or turn around and take a look at her bed mate.

“Oh god what did I do...” she thought. After listening to Kim’s heavy breathing for almost ten minutes, she decided to face her. She turned around slowly, trying not to wake her sleeping companion. It was too late for that though. As soon as she started moving she felt how the woman behind her stretched her arms out and yawned loudly. She turned around completely until she was looking into Kim’s blue eyes. Kim’s hair was disarrayed and curly, and she looked at Kerry and smiled sleepily.

“Good morning,” she purred and pulled Kerry in for a kiss before she had a chance to sneak out of it. Kerry felt her soft lips pressing down onto her mouth, and she parted her own instinctively to allow Kim’s tongue entrance.
”This feels rather nice,” she mused, even though it certainly wasn’t their first kiss. Kerry tried her hardest not to think about what they had done the night before but the images kept coming back to her while kissing. Kim’s hands on her body, undressing her, caressing her skin, kissing more than just her mouth. Her own hands clutching the sheets below, writhing and moaning. Kim above her doing things she didn’t imagine ever doing with a woman...

“Oh God!” Kerry thought and as subtly as possible she broke the kiss, starting to feel dizzy. They were lying side by side, watching each other intently. Kerry smiled shyly, not really knowing what to say or do.

“I need to take a shower,” she said softly, at last.
