Chapter 02: Wanted
The sun shone through the bedroom window warming Ka-lee as he slept in his bed. Opening one eye then the other, he inched up on all fours, stretching, wagging his tail. He walked over to Lani's bed, whimpering to get her attention. She was late feeding him and letting him out. Alternating sitting, standing, wagging and whining he'd place his head on the edge of the bed trying to wake his mom.
Lani opened one eye, she smiled at her big boy. Reaching over, she gently stroked his muzzle causing him to become even more excited.
"Morning, baby boy."
The whimpers and excitement broadened the smile on Lani's face. Ka-lee began doing his "wiggle dance" shaking his entire body while wagging his tail anxious to be fed and let out.
Lani eased the sheet back causing Ka-lee to scamper off for the kitchen to his food dish. She smiled while shaking her head, wondering what she would ever do without him. Looking over her shoulder, her smile broadened as she gazed at the form under the sheet.
"Good morning, how did you sleep?" She whispered tracing Samantha's cheek with her fingertip.
"Very good, thanks. I'm not used to sleeping with anyone, how did you sleep?" Her eyes barely open.
"Nicely, thanks. I need to get Ka-lee fed and let out. He actually slept in this morning. Must have been all that playing at the bar last night."
Samantha reached across Lani, her bare breasts grazing Lani's bare skin while she reached out to touch Ka-lee's muzzle who had returned wondering why Lani hadn't followed.
"You're not making this easy."
Samantha smiled back, "I know, I really enjoyed that last night. Go let him out and we can talk."
Lani sighed then quickly kissed Samantha, grudgingly extracting herself from the comfort of the warm bed. Slipping into a fresh pair of panties, she spoke to Ka-lee in a baby voice. Ka-lee continued his dance moving in and out of the room anxious for breakfast.
"If you want to get up, there's English muffins, yogurt, coffee, tea and whatever you can find for breakfast."
Samantha stretched, yawning in the process. She watched Lani don her robe, slipping her feet into fuzzy slippers. She debated whether to get up or entice her friend back to bed. She opted to get up and talk rather than lay there hoping Lani would come back.
Locating the shirt she changed into the previous night, she slipped her panties back on and staggered out to the kitchen rubbing the sleep from her eyes. Lani looked up at her while dropping Ka-lee's kibble in his dish.
"Help yourself to anything in the kitchen, I need to let him out after he's done."
"I'd love to." Samantha smiled with an evil grin.
"Silly, I like coffee if you don't mind making it. I'll heat up a muffin when I get back in."
"Not a problem, we do need to talk though. I'll make the coffee while you deal with your baby."
Lani smiled, she slipped her arm around Samantha's waist on her way to the back door. Looking into her eyes she sweetly kissed her on the lips then sighed as Ka-lee skipped by them smacking their legs with his ever wagging tail.
"Ugh, I love him but sometimes."
Samantha giggled then let Lani go. Walking to the cupboard she opened it, finding what she needed and began making coffee. While the coffee was brewing she found the muffins then proceeded to drop them in the toaster, adjusting the control to medium then pressed the knob down to begin the toasting.
Lani came back in with the ever bubbly Ka-lee wagging his tail and doing his wiggle dance again. He grabbed a chew toy then headed off to his bed content to chew and play by himself. Lani grabbed a pair of mugs as the toaster ejected their breakfast. Samantha poured while Lani got out some jam, she set the table for breakfast and their talk.
"I hope you know I really enjoyed last night, Lani."
"I did too, I'm just glad we're not doing the awkward silence thing, like if we were both drunk and did something."
"It's better sober."
They giggled and nodded their agreement as they sipped and ate. Occasionally a foot would brush the others ankles and that would trigger a smile and a sigh from one or the other.
"You know I still like men." Samantha confessed.
"I do too, but I think I might be more open now to a relationship with a girl or woman if the opportunity presented herself. It's very different not only physically but mentally too. Did you have that feeling?"
"Yes, more relaxed I think. I know we were both in the mood but it wasn't a rush to get naked and get off. Does that make sense to you?"
"It does. I'm glad you feel like that too."
They paused to reflect and finish eating. There was a bit more coffee left, Samantha got the pot and offered the last to Lani. She politely declined so Samantha poured the last bit for herself.
"I need to stop by mom and dad's on my way home and get my things. Were you going out there anytime soon?"
"I might go visit your mom, she's nice to talk to. Plus Ka-lee always gets worn out and sleeps good when he goes to play with Gwen and Sadie. I just don't want to have them feel like I'm imposing on them."
"They would say something if they felt that way, I know they both like you. They trust you with the house, and their dogs, right?"
They both giggled at that comment.
"I don't know if they would if they found out what we did last night. I hope they trust me with all their kids, two and four legged."
"They probably would raise an eyebrow or two but I'm old enough to do what I want."
"That's true. I just don't want to ruin the house sitting thing, it would be a pain all for everyone if this upset them."
Lani flashed an impish smile trying not to blush, "Did you want to take a shower before you leave?"
"Is that an invitation?"
"It is if you want it to be."
"I wouldn't mind at all, there's a spot that's hard to reach on my back."
Her words stopped as they both burst into giggles. Lani took Samantha's hand and led her back to the bedroom. They quickly dropped what little they were wearing and headed to the shower.
Lani grabbed an extra towel while Samantha got the water temperature just right. Samantha stepped in first and waited for Lani. She stood under the shower head letting the warm water cascade down her body, eyes closed enjoying how it felt. Lani stepped in pausing a moment to enjoy the view that greeted her. She closed the glass door then swooped in next to Samantha partially pushing her out of the stream.
"Hey! I need to wash my hair." "So do I. But first things first."
Lani managed to twist Samantha's face away from the water as she placed her lips upon her friends. Samantha smiled bringing herself closer and returning the affection. They stood kissing for a few moments until Lani paused.
