Nancy woke up, but she did not immediately open her eyes. She wasn't sure if last night had actually happened or if it had been a dream. Once she opened her eyes, she would know either way. She wanted to just live as if it had been real for a few moments, just in case it hadn't been. Finally, with equal parts of trepidation and excitement she opened her eyes.
The first thing she saw was her own bed across the room. Her heart almost beat out of her chest. "
It was real. I'm in Maura's bed.
" That thought caused her to immediately seek confirmation. She pushed her hips backwards and felt her ass nestle into Maura's pelvis behind her on the bed. "
I'm in Maura's bed, with Maura. YES! It wasn't a dream!
"
The body contact had roused Maura from her own slumber. She reached her arm over Nancy's body and across her chest so she could pull Nancy in closer to her. Nancy felt Maura's nipples press into her back. They were hard.
Without turning her head to face Maura, Nancy said, "Seems like someone is happy I'm in bed with them?"
"Oh, I definitely am. I hope the same thing is true for you?"
Nancy pulled away from Maura slightly so she could turn and face her. Nancy looked into Maura's deep blue eyes and said, "Definitely." She leaned forward and their lips met in a tender kiss. Once they broke the kiss, they pulled back and stared at each other for a few seconds. With all that had happened and all they had said to each other, that had been the first time they had kissed. The kiss was that of two lovers. That fact had not been lost on either of them. They stood on the banks of their own personal Rubicon, knowing that if they crossed it, there would be no turning back.
They could each see in the other's eyes that exact same thought. Their futures hung in the balance as the deep blue and light blue eyes gazed at each other. And although unspoken, they seemed to realize that they each had answered the question. The answers were the same and they were both in the affirmative.
They leaned back into each other and began to kiss each other with passion and purpose. But it was also the first time that either of them had kissed another girl. There was some hesitancy, not because of who they were kissing, but because this was uncharted territory for them. There was also the fact that they both wanted this kiss to be very special for the other. Added to the moment was the fact that they each hoped they were doing it well so as not to disappoint the other.
This had the benefit of slowing them down. They were able to truly feel their lips upon the other's. They began to wrap their arms around each other, lightly moving their hands across the other's back. They had the time to feel themselves holding the other and relishing the feeling of being held. Fingers glided through hair; red and blonde.
Maura tentively parted her lips and let her tongue slip out a little past her lips. The moment it touched Nancy's lips, Nancy shuddered and opened her eyes but she did not pull away. Instead, she opened her mouth a little and let her tongue touch Maura's. At the contact, they both shuddered and held each other tighter. This seemed to give both of them more confidence. Their mouths opened more, their tongues began to move inside the other's mouth and around each other. Hands now came around their bodies and were starting to caress their breasts and play with each other's nipples.
After a while they finally separated and stared at each other. Nancy asked, "Did I do okay?"
Smiling broadly, Maura replied, "Oh my god, Nance. That was incredible. That was the best kiss I've ever had."
"I'd never kissed a girl before."
"Neither had I. Was mine okay?"
"Yes. I've only kissed one other person. But I cannot remember any kiss with him that was so amazing."
"I am so happy that you enjoyed it. I knew I would. But then again, I have never wanted to kiss anyone more than I wanted to kiss you, Nance."
"Really? Why would you want to kiss me that much?"
"Are you crazy? First off, your gorgeous and your lips are so sexy looking. But...okay, look. Don't freak out, but I like you Nance."
"I like you too Maura."
"No, I mean, I 'like you' like you."
"
Ooooohhhhh
." Nancy said in almost a whisper. That did not sound like a positive reaction to Maura. She knew she had put her heart out there and was hoping that Nancy might say she felt the same way. Instead, she sounded...nervous.
"Well, I did kind of rescue you. It's natural that you would have some kind of reaction to that."
"No Nance, it goes back further than that."
"Well then it's from my watching you, that turned you on? You said that it did?"
"It did Nance, it turned me on a lot. But that's not why I like you like you."
"Well, maybe it was..."
"
NANCY!
" Maura was getting frustrated because it seemed like Nancy was trying to make excuses for Maura as if she were misinterpreting her own feelings. She knew she had to get this out.
For her part, Nancy had been in a state of panic. Since that night in the hospital room with Maura, Nancy kept going back to that very first day. That initial feeling she had when she first saw Maura walk into their dorm room had been uppermost in her mind. And that's how she felt now. She had tried to convince herself that there was nothing to that initial feeling, but now she knew it had been the right one all along.
The problem was that Nancy had doubted that Maura felt anywhere near as much for her as she knew she felt for Maura. With all those guys coming and going, Maura never indicated she had really even liked Nancy. But then Maura had told her that had been trying to connect with Nancy for a while now. That she had wanted to watch Nancy and had wanted Nancy to watch her. This was all too good to be true. So, Nancy was trying to protect herself in case it was too good to be true. Hearing Maura shout her name, her full name, stopped her on a dime.
Maura reached out and took Nancy's hands into her own. "Sorry for yelling, but I need you to hear this. You have things reversed. I don't feel like I do about you because of those things. My feelings go back to that very first day. I walked into this room and you were sitting on the floor and you smiled at me with that beautiful face and those adorable dimples and I fell in love with you right then and there. Is it crazy to believe in love at first sight?"
"No, Maura. I don't think so."
"I had only had sex one time with my date at the Senior Prom. And it wasn't great. But I figured I would get here and have some experiences and maybe somewhere in junior or senior year, I'd find the love of my life and get married and so on and so on and so on. And then here it is, my first day and I see you."
At that moment, Maura stopped and looked at Nancy as if she was reliving that moment. She was just sitting there with a big grin on her face and it made Nancy smile.
"See! Right there! You gave me that look. Well, I was raised pretty strict and so the idea of me being in love with a girl was just not something I could get my mind around. So at first, I decided that I had that feeling just because I hadn't had sex with the right guy. And so I started going with all those guys, hoping that being with one of them might feel right. But none of them ever did."
At this point, Maura stopped and at first, she looked down at the bed. When she picked her head back up, her look seemed to Nancy to be one of concern or worry.
"I hope you don't think I'm a slut or anything Nance?"
Nancy could tell that Maura had suddenly realized how what she was saying sounded after having said it out loud. Maura was being so open and honest, Nancy felt she needed to do the same. Besides, the way the talk was going, maybe what seemed too good to be true actually was true.
