Our wonderful Discovery
I married young and had not really had time to find out how I actually felt about sex, marriage, and commitment. He and I started growing apart pretty fast and the marriage self destructed soon after it started. We began quarreling everyday and it was a constant struggle, fighting about everything from how to set the table, to the color of the sofa, to what bills needed to be paid first. I was either too critical or mindlessly Pollyanna. He was angry or sophomorically immature, and finally the sight of him disgusted me and made me want to just get away. We struggled to make it work, but we finally accepted reality. I decided it had been a mistake after about a year, but I stuck it out for another ten months. Finally, I gave up. Just lost interest.
We got a divorce after two years, and I didn't want to even think about being with anyone again for a very long time. Not, that is, until I met Karen at a gardening class on a Saturday in June, five months after the divorce was final. She was in short shorts and had her hair up in a ponytail, a tank top with no bra, and was positively stunning. I lusted after her at the first sight of her.
I had never been with another woman and had not had any lesbian thoughts before, but I couldn't take my eyes off of her. We connected over a artichoke plant and began to chat. We connected like I could not believe. She seemed to be attracted to me as well, and we ended the day going for coffee after the class. It was lust at first sight, and before our coffee cups were empty we were planning our next meeting.
I invited her to my place that very afternoon, she came, and before the day was over we ended up in the shower, soaping each other, washing one another, and then kissing when the water was off, drying one another and standing in the shower stall, naked, wet, fondling one another, and very sexually charged. I had never kissed another woman, but I kissed Karen with a passion I had never felt before. I was euphoric.
I led her to my bed, put her down on the bedspread, opened her legs, and went right to kissing her pussy like a ravenous animal going for food. It was my first time but knew it wouldn't be my last. I licked, and sucked, and kissed her pussy lips while I spread her thighs with my forearms. I didn't know the female body, even though I had one, but I explored it like Marco Polo.
Karen came with an explosion that burst from her like dynamite, and she climbed up my body until our lips were together and our tongues played in concert like eels, and my head spun like a top, wanting to please this woman anyway I could.
"You ever done this before?" she asked breathlessly as our tongues entwined and we sucked each other's.
"I have never even thought about it once in my life," I told her as I fought for a breath. "I have never even seen another woman's pussy," I said. "But yours is beautiful. I love it," I said. "I could look at it all day. You taste fantastic," I said.
"Can I taste you?" she ask, looking eager and ravenous.
"If you don't I'll die," I said frantically, nearly begging.
I turned, offering her my vagina, and when her lips touched my pussy I gasped. The feeling was beyond wonderful. I put my head back and sighed a very happy sigh.
We lay together, holding one another, just luxuriating in the closeness and the warmth of the other woman's naked body for hours. We went to dinner at a restaurant down the street and I could feel her mouth on my pussy for the rest of the night. When we finished eating we went back to my apartment and once again made love, slept for a couple of hours, then made love and ate each other repeatedly.
Sex had never been so wonderful. Life had never been so good, and I never felt love as intensely as I did that evening. That night I sucked each of her breasts, holding her erect nipples on my tongue as I suckled and drew each between my lips, savoring the feeling of the hard button in my mouth. Then I offered her mine and cooed as she returned the favor with each of my boobs, moaning and loving the sensation of her lips on my teats.
When I woke to see her looking at me, and I pulled her naked female form against mine and groaned. "You are beautiful," I whispered. We kissed for the next hour. We ate naked at the table, each admiring the other through breakfast and beyond.
We walked around the park after we ate and held hands, not caring who saw, who knew, and we vowed to decide whose place we would keep and whose would we advertise. Hers was closer to school, my work, and it had two bedrooms, although we had decided without discussion to share the same room. It was an easy decision.
"Are we lesbians?" she asked on our third night.
"I don't know," I said, "but I am in love. Have you ever been with another woman before?" I asked.
"One," she said. "My first roommate, Julia. But she met the love of her life and married him. It was a spontaneous thing that I didn't regret, but I didn't think it was who I was. Nothing like this week with you," she said with a sexy smile. "I think it is who I am now. You?"
"I know it is who I am from now on," I said, putting my arms around her neck and kissing her with as tender of a kiss as I could manage. I moved my head to the side and held my mouth against hers. She offered me her tongue and I began sucking on it like it was a tiny cock, which I no longer had any interest in.
I moved in with Karen the next weekend, and we spent most of Saturday and Sunday either unpacking boxes or licking each other on the sofa, the kitchen sink, our bed, and on the bench in the shower, totally wet and smelling like lavender shampoo.
Our first big undertaking was letting our families know about us. We considered keeping it hush, but we both wanted to be honest with them, to stand up for ourselves and show we weren't ashamed of what we had. That meant confronting my father with what he had once called 'fucking lesbians'. It meant telling him, "I am a fucking lesbian and I would like you to meet and get to know the fucking lesbian I live with and am in love with."
