It was a lovely evening, a lovely dinner, until the radio station stopped playing music and switched to the adventure hour instead. Thrilling adventures with Captain America and Betty. Just the sort of thing to put Peggy in a foul mood that even Angie couldn't quite lift.
It wouldn't be for lack of trying, though.
Peggy kept staring at her plate of spaghetti as Angie got up, not even noticing until Angie was behind her, wrapping her arms under Peggy's armpits and hoisting her up.
"Angie, what on earthâ"
"Shush. You can brood on your own time. You know how many weekends I get off this early, goin' straight from slaving over a hot stove at work to slaving over a hot stove here, just so you can have a home-cooked meal?"
Peggy, as always, seemed both fond of and bewildered by Angie's stream of verbiage. "It was a scrumptious meal," she said, brushing Angie's arms away, but not before Angie had successfully deposited her in an armchair looking out from the room's northeast corner. With Peggy seated, Angie leaned over her, hands steepled on the armrests.
"You wanna tell me what's bothering you or should I scare you with how
mysteriously
accurate my guess is?"
Peggy's expression was abashed, a look she only let steal onto her face when she was with Angie. No poker face for the waitress. "Well, if I've ruined dinner, I can at least tell you the truth. The silly, irrational truth."
"Silly and irrational. My specialties."
"It's Steve." Peggy gazed at the radio as if she almost wanted to turn it back on. Sometimes the actor they'd gotten did almost sound like Steve, when his lines weren't too corny. "I can't help feeling sometimes as though I robbed him. Surviving, and having this life, when he had so littleâlost so much."
"Hey, you sacrificed plenty, sister." Angie dropped herself in Peggy's lap. "And if he's half the guy you told me about, he'd be just as broken up by you having to go without him as he'd be about... leaving." Angie crossed her legs, putting her knees across the leg of Peggy's she wasn't perched on. She fit neatly atop of Peggy. "I know, I know. You wanted to be the gal sitting on Captain America's lapâ"
"That's not what I wanted to do with his lap," Peggy said, before immediately regretting her phrasing. It was something about American Englishâ
everything
had some smutty meaning, as evidenced by how Angie's eyes lit up.
"Getting a little frisky there, are ya, English?" Angie teasingly racked her chin. "Like I was saying, maybe you can't sit on Cap's lap, but I can sit on yours. That ain't so bad, is it?"
"Well... not when you throw in a home-cooked meal," Peggy replied widely.
Angie's smile brightened like the Sunset Strip. "That's what you get for dating an Italian woman. We get you hooked on the food, then you have to put up with us. How my mom got my pop."
"Indeed," Peggy muttered. "Whereas the English just seduce our prey with our sophisticated manners and elegant aesthetic."
"Yeah, I think your aesthetic's just about ready for me," Angie said, already breathing hard, as her hand tucked under Peggy's skirt. She toyed with the trim hair she found there, running her fingers through it to watch just how lustful Peggy's expression could go, then cupping Peggy's labia and squeezing with just barely not enough pressure. "How's that feel?"
"Like your linguini tastes." Peggy allowed herself a smile at her own quipâkeep Angie guessingâbut suddenly she tensed with a gasp, her knees spreading wider, her back arching almost enough to buck Angie from her interesting position. "Okay, keep doing that," Peggy now urged. "That, I like!"
"Just one more thing you like about me," Angie sighed, playing bored. "There's just no variety with you."
Her fingertips now coated with Peggy's wetness, Angie felt invited,
begged,
to slide them actually inside of Peggy, who wiggled and squirmed with every little bit she took. Angie probed deeply, watching her lover's faceâeven Peggy seemed surprised by how thoroughly Angie was able to explore with her pussy clenching, squeezing down with every ragged breath she took. Her clit quivered faintly at the crest of her spread thighs; Angie touched it lightly with the nail of her thumb.
Peggy's slender hips twisted, as if they were wrenching out the moan she was releasing. When she closed her eyes, Angie took it as a surrender.
"Here's what I think we should do. I'm gonna make you come. Then I'm gonna take off my clothes. Then we'll get onto the bed and see about you paying me back for that 'scrumptious' meal."
"You waitersâ" Peggy moaned. "Always angling for a tip..."
Then she trailed off, a broken sigh as Angie centered her attention on Peggy's clit. Her middle and ring finger were inside Peggy, gently stirring the pot as her forefinger and pinky rubbed at the skin outside Peggy's core. But her thumb did the real work, massaging Peggy's clit until she was drenched with sweat, shuddering uncontrollably. Angie felt like she was touching herself, she was so turned on. As she fingered Peggy, her other hand frantically unbuttoned her dress.
Peggy didn't wait. Before Angie had it all the way unbuttoned, her hand was under Angie's skirt, playing the garters of her stockings like violin strings, then going straight for Angie's panties.
"Oh gosh!" Angie exclaimed. With Peggy's finger inside her, she felt like she was all jelly. "Gosh, Peg, you don't kid around..."
"I think we should go to the bed right now," Peggy said, once more in charge. "And then we'll both come."
"That sounds fine..." Angie said dreamily, unable to focus on anything but Peggy's callused finger claiming her sex.
Peggy easily picked her up, hoisting her to the bed, and as Peggy carried her, Angie brought her wet fingers to her mouth. Sucked them dry.
"So," Peggy said. "How does one Margaret Beatrix Carter pair with a serving of spaghetti and meatballs?"
Angie tucked her head against Peggy's shoulder. "You're no white wine, but you'll do."
Peggy sighed. Howard's apartment was going to make a snob of Angie yet.
She stopped at the foot of the bed, Angie still held tightly in her arms, and she gave the girl a firm kiss, something that Angie never mindedâthough she did get a bit snippy when Peggy was nibbling her ear.
"Not that your lipstick doesn't look good all over my earring, Peg, but we are going to get to the, y'know, 'unmentionables' soon?"
"Well, now that you mention it..." Peggy dumped Angie on the bed, the waitress giving a little shriek as the mattress bounced her. She protested even more shrilly as Peggy pulled her around, orienting her with her head at the foot of the bed and her feet pointed at the pillows.
"You manhandle me more than the men, you know that?"
Even upside-down, Peggy had no problem helping Angie out of her clothes. "It's all the energy your cooking gives me. So much iron I could lift a tank."
Peggy looked down at Angie naked. She loved the gamine body, the coltish limbs that led inexorably to the surprisingly large, sensual breasts that appeared when she dispensed with her conservative brassiere. Peggy leaned over, reaching down to plant her fingertips on Angie's flat belly, than drawing her nails up the perfect skin, raking all of Angie's body all the way to her face, where she lightly touched Angie's lips and closed eyes before finishing with a brush through her soft hair. Angie kept her eyes closed, anticipating another tour of her naked body with a dreamy look on her face.
But Peggy was in no mood for still more foreplay. Angie had heated her up like no one else could, touching her there, and now, though she could force herself to appreciate the wonderful creature she'd ended up with, she also had to
