Keli poked her head out from the kitchen nook after the front door slammed violently and she heard loud, vivid cursing. "Lyssa?" Her normally calm roommate was leaning against the entryway wall, eyes closed, cheeks red and breathing heavily. "What's wrong?"
"I'm having a bad day," the blonde said through clenched teeth as her lids opened to reveal eyes the exact color of honey.
"I guess so," Keli said. "For a while I thought you might not be human, the way you keep everything under control, but now..." Her chocolate brown eyes lingered on the unfastened buttons on Lyssa's blouse and watched as the girl's perfectly manicured fingers undid the rest, leaving her plain white cotton bra visible. Lyssa was extremely upset if she was disrobing in the living room. Keli had 'accidentally' walked in on her a few times before or after a shower and Lyssa was always quick to cover up, asking politely that Keli please knock before entering, saying "I'm a very modest person".
"Why don't you relax on the couch for a couple minutes and I'll get you a drink. You can tell me about work. I'll even throw in a back rub you'll never forget," Keli said, gently pushing her roommate to plush sofa. She smiled as Lyssa sighed heavily and threw her self down, eyes closed once more.
Keli rushed into tiny kitchen and quickly mixed a strong margarita, and took the clip holding her long, fire engine red hair off her face out, her mind racing. Maybe this was it, the night she could sweet talk Lyssa into her bed. Six months of sneaking peeks, and the occasional "Oops, the kitchen is just too damn small" brush against the other girl's ass and tits had her about ready to explode. She had decided the day she'd first seen her the sister of her brother's best friend that she would get her into bed. But Lyssa seemed to be an Ice Queen, her emotions always controlled, and it seemed like nothing could turn her on. Taking a deep breath she picked up the glass and walked back out into the living room and saw Lyssa still sitting there, only now her head was in her hands, her shoes and panty hose kicked off into the corner.
"Hey, Lys." Keli sat down and gently pushed a lock of blonde hair away from Lyssa's face and behind one ear. "Talk to me."
"I"m so tired of pretending to be what I'm not, pretending to be what other people think I should be. I'm really not emotionless, or asexual." She raised her face and took the drink her roommate offered. She drained half of it in just a few gulps before she spoke again. "I've been trying to be perfect for my family, to be everything they expect, but I can't anymore. I'm lonely and miserable."
Keli's breath caught. There was no way Lyssa meant what she was hearing. Sure, she had never expressed a strong interest in any man, but there had never been a flicker of interest towards any females either.
"What do you mean, hon?"
"I'm a lesbian." Lyssa drained the rest of her drink and set the glass down on the carpet. "I don't feel anything for men, and I never have, but I have to force myself not to stare too long when I see a pretty girl on the street. Do you have any idea how much it hurt me after you left every time I told you to. I wanted you to look. To touch me, make me feel normal." Tears began to slip down her face. "I've never had sex or even kissed anyone. I've wanted to but I'm so scared. I mean, I'm 28, and I don't know anything."
She sat back on the couch, her shirt falling open to expose her breasts again, skirt rode up to the tops of her thighs, and Keli couldn't help but feel like it was Christmas and she'd just been given the gift Mom and Dad said Santa wouldn't bring.
Being careful not to spook her roommate, Keli leaned over and ran one hair though Lyssa's shoulder length hair as she placed small kisses from the girl's neck to just above the fabric of her bra then back up to her mouth, kissing her gently, teasing her soft lips then slipping her tongue into Lyssa's mouth, relishing the sweet taste. Lyssa turned slightly and wrapped her arms around Keli, pulling her close as she sighed in pleasure.
"I have a confession to make," Keli said several minutes later. "My walking in on you was never accidental. I just had to see you naked, and wet. I've fantasized about you in the shower, the water running over these gorgeous breasts." She lightly traced the seams of Lyssa's bra. "I've wanted to be with you since the day you moved in, I was just waiting for a signal."
