Lauren sat up with Carly still in her lap, lifted one breast toher mouth, and dipped her head to taste. Heaven. She licked Carly’s breast, hernipple, making a circle with her tongue. Carly murmured appreciatively,threading her fingers through Lauren’s hair as she worked. She held her inplace, which Lauren didn’t mind at all. Touching Carly only made her own needescalate. Her own discomfort grew in the sexiest way possible.

Lauren reached between Carly’s legs and grazed her through thefabric, making Carly moan, low and throaty. That did it. On a mission, sheshifted forward and laid Carly down on the bed. She took her bikinis off in theblink of an eye, raked her gaze over all that was on glorious display to hernow, and settled on top. Carly pulled Lauren’s face down and kissed her, hungryand powerful. The sensation of skin on skin for the first time might have beenone of the more satisfying moments of Lauren’s life. She’d waited patiently forthis moment, fantasized about this, and now it was all theirs. As they kissed,she settled her hips between Carly’s legs and rocked. Carly gasped. Laurenrocked some more, firm and slow.

“God, yes,” Carly said, arching into her, searching for more.Lauren pushed up onto her forearms as she worked her hips, watching as Carly’sbreasts lifted and fell with each thrust. Fiery desire flickered through her.She wanted Carly to come, and she wanted it soon.

Lauren crawled down the bed, parted Carly’s legs, and kissed herbetween them sensuously, matching Carly’s rhythm with her tongue. Slow, thenfast, and slow again. She slid her fingers inside and listened to Carly gasp.“Lauren.” Carly panted and made the best little whimpering sounds as Laurenpushed into her and out. She was a little drunk on those sounds, this wholeexperience more than she ever could have imagined. Her tongue circled anddipped, until the sounds only increased. With a final swipe, Carly went still andcried out, shaking all over as Lauren held her in place, protectively. Shekissed up her body, treasuring it, memorizing each expanse of skin.

Carly took Lauren’s face in her hands and kissed her, good andlong. She flipped them easily, ready to take what she wanted. With fire in hereyes, she took Lauren’s nipple into her mouth and sucked. She almost came. WhenCarly bit down, gentle yet firm, Lauren felt the sensation gathering fromsomewhere deep within. She couldn’t stop it if she tried. Her hips pressedinward, and she tightened her stomach muscles, preparing for the tidal wave onthe horizon. It built steadily every second that Carly touched her. “Almost,”Lauren said, desperate. Taking the cue, Carly pushed her fingers inside. Laurengasped and balled the sheets with her fists, as Carly moved her thumb back andforth, making amazing things happen to Lauren. Her body felt like hers, but itdidn’t. This was new. This was urgent. It was unhinged. The orgasm hit wild andhard in the best payoff of her life. Pleasure rocked her body and she buckednearly off the bed, calling out. With her back arched and Carly stillintimately joined to her, she rode out the waves that crashed one after theother. She’d been turned on for days—it was no wonder her body responded sopowerfully.

Limp and happy, she pulled Carly to her and smiled. There were noavailable words left, but Carly nodded at the smile. “Right?” she said,settling a thigh between Lauren’s, making her twitch with how sensitive sheremained.

“Off the charts,” Lauren finally murmured and ran her hand up theback of Carly’s neck into her hair.

“That sounds like a challenge,” Carly said with a twinkle in hereye. “We could see how far off we could go.”

“Don’t even think about it. You practically killed me just now.”

Carly propped her head up on her hand and lay to the side, hergaze sweeping across Lauren’s body. She touched her breast lightly, circlingit. “Oh, I’ll give it a few minutes. Don’t worry.”

Lauren laughed, happy, sated, and feeling wonderfully like awanton harlot.

She could get used to this.

Carly didn’t have to open her eyes to know that she’d woken up inLauren’s arms. God, she loved the way Lauren smelled, like fresh cotton andsoap and sunshine, if that was even possible. She didn’t want to move from thisspot. Ever. Her limbs felt heavy and comfortable. Her body felt the most restedit had for a long while. Lauren had seen to that expertly. Ofcourseshe’d be amazingin bed. She’d probably meticulously crafted her technique with careful thought,the way she approached every other aspect of her life.

Carly found herself lying in the wonderful crook of space betweenLauren’s shoulder and her collarbone, which gave her perfect access to place asoft good morning kiss on Lauren’s neck, causing her to stir. “Are you awake?”Carly asked in her best stage whisper. When she got no answer, she smiled toherself and spent a few more minutes reminiscing about the night prior. Thedetails were etched into her being for all time. It had been the single hottestsexual exchange of Carly’s life, and in LA in her twenties, she’d experienced alot. That was the thing, though. It wasn’t alwayswhatshe and Lauren did, buthow. Their connection,their pacing, their ability to predict the other, their yin-and-yang vibe. Allof it.

She absently traced the curve of Lauren’s breast, loving the quietof the morning with Lauren in her arms. Lauren stirred and shifted closer,pushing lightly against Carly’s hand. Carly smiled at the signal and made hercircles smaller, getting closer and closer to her nipple. Lauren, she’d learnedjust hours before, had very sensitive breasts.

“What in the world have I woken up to?” Lauren asked. She sighedcontentedly. “Good morning.”

“It really seems to be.” Carly’s forefinger, at last, landed onthe nipple itself and teased it lightly. She pinched it and relished Lauren’squiet gasp. She ran her fingers between Lauren’s breasts, down Lauren’sstomach, and tickled the tops of her thighs, listening as Lauren’s breathingpattern quickened and hitched. Things were starting to work, and fast. With herknee, she nudged one of Lauren’s legs to the side and continued to lightlytickle her skin in a back and forth motion. When her fingertips reached theinsides of her thighs, Lauren’s cheek pushed against the pillow, and shesqueezed her eyes shut. Carly continued to tickle closer and closer to theexact spot she knew would take Lauren deliciously over the edge, and when shesettled there, softly moving her fingers back and forth slowly, it only tookseconds for Lauren to tense, arch her back, and cry out quietly with pleasure.That’s how Lauren did most things. Quietly and to perfection.

Unable to help herself, Carly slid on top so she could feel herskin pressed to Lauren’s as she recovered. “Good morning, beautiful.” She ranher hand through Lauren’s luminous brown hair.

“That might have been my sexiest wake-up.” Lauren shook her head.“Nope. I know it was.”

“You came fast. Record time.”

Lauren blinked. “I think we’ve established that I respond verywell to you.” Pink invaded Lauren’s cheeks.

“Are you blushing? Do I make you blush?”

“No,” Lauren said adamantly, touching one of her cheeks to coverit.

“But your cheeks are rosy and adorable. Just look at them.”

“They are not. I checked. I love that you’re naked in my bed in myhome. I have no idea how this happened from six months ago, before I knew you,to here, but I really, really like you naked.”

Carly straddled Lauren’s thigh and rocked slightly, the wholeprocess having turned her on in a big way. “We are in agreement about beingnaked together.”

Lauren grinned and pulled Carly in tighter by her ass. “I had noidea you were this sexy minded in the morning. I mean, I definitely shouldhave, because it’s you.”

“Do you know what I’m also a fan of, besides you naked?”

“What’s that?”
