I made it through the door to my flat before I broke-down, devastated by the news I had just received, I slid down the wall, ending up in a pile on the floor, my body wracked by the loud sobs coming from me. I'd just become another statistic of that modern phenomenon. I'd just been dumped by text, and on the day of our second anniversary together. The man I loved, who had been sharing my bed and I hoped to share my life had just dumped me in the cruellest of ways. He didn't have the guts to tell me to my face.
"Suzie, what's wrong, what is it?" shouted my flatmate Karen as she came crashing through the door from the living room into the hallway.
I pushed my phone to her as I continued to sob my broken heart out.
"Sorry, it's over, been seeing someone for 6 months now."
"Oh the bastard, the total bastard. I thought you two were getting engaged next week."
"W... we... we were. That's not...worst... pregnant...just...confirmed...today." I managed to get out between deep sobs of anguish.
"Oh damn, you poor thing. This should be the happiest day of your life. Now, this."
Karen slid down the wall to sit alongside me, taking me in her arms, hugging me tightly, comforting me as I continued to sob until I had no more tears to shed, head buried deep into her shoulder. Pulling me up she said, "You need a shower and a hot drink, come on Suzie, let me help."
As she pushed me into the large bathroom that is the best thing about the flat that we share, apart from the fantastic piped sound system, she started to strip my designer suit and silk blouse from my body. Soon the bathroom was filled with hot steam from the shower. My expensive clothes were in a pile in the corner, but at least my shoes were in the hall where they had fallen off.
Karen continued undressing me, unclasping my bra and then helped me out of my panties so I was totally nude, then pushed me in the shower. Putting a sponge in my hand she waited until I had started to soap myself, then went to make me a hot drink. No alcohol, I'm pregnant!
The hot water, steam, and fragrant scent coming from the shower gel seemed to be having a calming effect as I soaped myself, along with the soft music coming from the sound system, when I sensed movement behind me and a pair of arms encased me. Pushing back in fright getting ready to fight off my attacker, I became aware that there was a pair of soft breasts pressed against my back, and Karen, whispered in my ear, "Suzie, relax, it's only me, I'm here to rub your back, nothing more. Relax you, comfort you."
Her arms released me slightly and she placed the slightest of soft kisses on the nape of my neck. Taking the loofa from my hands she applied loads of shower gel and got me to lean against the shower wall, arms outstretched taking my weight, also making it more difficult for me to move quickly, "Relax sweetie, let me help you," she soothingly whispered into my ear, her hot breath tickling. As she said this she began to soap my back, running in firm strokes up and down, all the time her other arm was still around my waist, holding me, controlling me.
Putting the loofa in my hand she continued rubbing my back but this time it was her hands running up and down me, her hands were soft and gentle but firm and controlling at the same time, massaging and comforting, relaxing me. Then they shifted to my sides, at times just catching the sides of my boobs and at times the swell and roundness of my bum. I stiffened at this more intimate touch until Karen again calmed me with her gentle tone and softly spoken words.
"It's ok baby, go with it, relax with me, relax for me, just relax, you're so tense." Well I would be I'd just been dumped and I was pregnant!
I was so strung up with the emotion of what had just happened to me that it took me some time before I complied with her wishes, but eventually, I melted into her, pushing my body back into her, my bum pushing into her softly rounded belly. Karen moaned as I did so.
It seemed natural when Karen's hands moved to my front, caressing me totally, her touches felt so nice I didn't resist when her hands began caressing my boobs, running around them, coating them in soapy suds, cupping each of them, taking the weight in her hands, after all, she was just washing me, comforting me, comforting me in my time of need, just like a good friend.
Our bodies were pressed together, her boobs crushed against my back, I could feel her nipples were stiff and erect. Karen took the loofa from me and now used that to soap my body. This time her touch was harder on my body, or maybe it was the feel of the loofa, then the loofa was pressing between my legs, Karen insistently forcing my legs open so that she could get the loofah in-between them, rubbing it against the outer lips of my pussy.
Ignoring my initial feeling of reluctance at being touched there by another woman, well not exactly by another woman, but what a woman was holding and directing on one of my most intimate of places, I gave in to my bodies feelings and needs, tilted my head back and to the side and moaned as Karen kissed my lips, a soft brush of her lips on mine.
My mind was whirling I had never contemplated going with a woman, I wasn't appalled by the thought, it was just something I had never expected to happen, I had never had an inkling to try it, never wanted to experiment, even in Uni when most things like that happen.
My hands reached behind me and I pulled Karen hard against me as best I could, crushing her to me. Karen dropped the loofa and replaced the touch between my legs with her hand, her fingers instantly rubbing up and down my outer lips, caressing me, stimulating me, teasing me.
This was wrong, we were two women, and I was vulnerable, but somehow this intimate but none threatening touch felt right.
I turned to face her and kissed her. Yes, I kissed her, with more force than she had done with me, my hands tentatively started to explore her firm body. I looked into her eyes, questioning if I was going too far, my eyes open wide with wonder. All I could see in Karen's was acceptance and acquiescence, wanting. When I had turned to face her our bodies came even closer together, boobs pressing against each other, nipples brushing together, I reached out and pulled Karen closer to me, holding her, wanting to be close to her, feel her body against mine.
Emboldened now, but still unsure of what I was doing, and why, I ran my hands over Karen, exploring, probing how far she would go, how far I wanted to go touching her. Eventually, one hand reached her pussy, my hand cupping it I slowly slid my middle finger up and down her slit, just on the outside, well not on the outside just inside her lips. The feel was soft and velvety, this was the first time I had ever touched another woman in such an intimate way.
At the first sign of my emboldened state, Karen had dropped her head to my boobs and started to suck on them switching from left to right, time after time, making sure each got the same attention as she licked and teased my nipples. I loved the feel of her mouth and tongue on my boobs and the sensation it was causing in my body.
Karen leant back against the shower wall now, pulling me with her as we kissed again, this time with more passion, our tongues getting involved for the first time. After a while Karen pushed me down her body as I kissed it, sucking on one nipple as I found her boobs with my lips for the first time, but not letting me stop there the pressure on my shoulders increased as she insistently pushed me lower and lower until at last, my face was level with her pussy.
She arched her hips pushing them out towards me, it was obvious what she wanted me to do, conflicting emotions were whirring through my mind, this was much further than we had already done.
The forbidden step. A Rubicon to be crossed. Did I want to take that step, could I take it. If I did, things could never go back, the step could not be untaken. These thoughts went through my mind much quicker than it takes to write them down or read them. I was conflicted, I wanted to, I wanted to so much, but I was frightened, I had never ever had thoughts of going with another woman before.
I inched my face forward until it was millimetres from Karen's pussy, hesitating I stared at it for a second, then gathering all my courage I placed my lips against it, the merest and softest of touches, before pulling away. My touch on her was so soft and gentle neither of us could be sure that it had happened. With that lightest of touches, in my mind, I was committed to what would happen between us this night. I kissed her again, this time longer, the tip of my tongue just poking out from my lips as placed my mouth on her just holding my lips against her, but then pushing my tongue out further and into her. As my tongue probed into her Karen let out a soft moan. She tasted sweet, with a little salty tang, not like the way I taste, but maybe we taste different to ourselves.
Wanting to go no further, but wanting to go so, so, much further I broke my kiss on Karen's most intimate place, the core of her being, the very essence of her as a woman, rose from my knees, shut off the shower, wrapped her in a big fluffy towel and dried her. Teasing her with quick presses of my lips all over her body, she doing the same to me.
