Chapter 13
-
Another day with another few stops by "Tobias'Β caravan, appealing to another near-faceless group of constituents, and Memirellin was having a better time of it than she had been at the start. Apparently the fat man was running for governor, for whatever that meant, but Memi was relieved enough that she was able to really get into her role as Laura's de-facto arm candy.
They'd actually gotten rooms at a hotel for the next to last night instead of leaving everyone to find sleep somewhere in the campaign bus; Tobias had a friend in the hospitality industry. Laura flounced into hers and Memi's shared bedroom for the night, disregarded the second bed while drawing Memi under the covers of the closer one since she couldn't wait to make good on all the fervent glances and squishy hugs they'd exchanged throughout the day.
Dresses and underwear came off immediately and without ceremony as the two women passionately kissed while melting and squirming against one another. And they calmed themselves after a few minutes once their most immediate needs were sated, Memi resting her head on her girlfriend's great, soft chest while the both of them explored each other's bodies. Fingertips stroked, palms massaged into gentle, ticklish curves, legs wrapped together under the sheets as if that space was all there was in the world and nothing beyond mattered.
Giggling, Laura pulled down the top of the sheets and exposed their skin to the arctic chill of the AC that countered feverish arousal. Even now, she was thinking about how well she could put off sex and make it all the better for waiting.
"Hey, hey," Laura said, "I'm glad you came out with me this last week. It seems like you're feeling a lot better, but I'd be lying if I said that was the whole reason I asked you along. Fact is, your girlfriend is a slutty broad." She kissed the top of Memi's white head, the brightest thing in the room when there was only starlight twinkling in from the veranda window to reflect.
Memi snuggled herself in more deeply, moved her knee slightly against the heat gathered between Laura's legs and drank in the heady sigh of pleasure the movement produced. "I don't mind fucking someone I love, not at all." She let a dark thought pass like an iceberg in the night: she was failing another one she loved at the same time, in the same way... The tip of her tail dipped out from within the sheets and impatiently whapped against the side of the bed. "And I wasn't feeling that bad, you know. What do I have to feel bad about? Two or three lovers, depending how you count one of them, a master who cares for my needs, and all the freedom I could have ever possibly asked for; my life right now is awesomely better than I'd ever imagined it would be."
"Sure, I get it~" Laura began stroking Memi's hair and that dark mood drained as easily as it had welled up. "He just has a different love language than you, and less of a libido. There's no need to worry that Satilli or I will take him away from you; I can see it and so can she, that he's always looking at you even when we're together." She laughed lightly, her voice like flower petals adorning their bed. "He doesn't love me at all, you know. I know you know that much as well, since you're the one connecting him and me. It's odd, isn't it, this daisy-chain relationship we've been adding links to? I don't think, without your influence, I'd ever have accepted it."
"That's something I've never understood. All I did was fuck your dad's ass. There can't be a reason to love me in that."
"It wasn't that, that made me love you." Laura kissed her girlfriend's white hair and held her tightly. "I was reeling after that, knowing what my father had tried to do: fuck you while thinking of me. It's not as if I liked making him my piggy slave, but he said he'd do anything to make it up to me and I went straight into a dark place because I only wanted to hurt him. Later on, I wanted to meet the person who'd revealed that man's character to me, and you were adorable~ And that wasn't what made me love you, either. I saw what you had with Harry, that I'd never had. You remember it was Satilli who broke the mold; I saw my chance to worm my way into your heart and I took it. Sorry."
Memi smiled. "The look on Hairy's face that night~ He didn't want to go out with Satilli either, at that time. Do you think he would have been only mine if I put my foot down, if I wanted to put my foot down, if I could? No, I don't have any right to doubt my master's fidelity when I'm the one who kept telling him there wasn't a problem, and there isn't... I was mad because... he's renting me out, like a whore." She laughed to herself, a memory not so old forcing itself on her while she teared up in Laura's embrace. "I told him he could do it. It's well within his rights as my master... He could actually sell my body and I wouldn't have a leg to stand on to call foul..."
"Why talk about something you know isn't going to happen?"
"It's happening now..."
Laura seemed chill against Memi's body. "I shouldn't have phrased it like that, when I asked, should I?"
Memi shook her head against Laura's breasts. She couldn't force herself to look up into the woman's eyes now, not when she'd just dealt her friend a wound without thinking. "I know that isn't what you meant. I'm not stupid, even if I think I am. It's hard to go your whole life looking so hard at every word someone says to you, then coming here and seeing so much trust that you all will say things you don't mean, knowing that nobody will take it too hard, even if they end up that way..." Heart-rendingly, Memi pushed herself out of her girlfriend's grasp and sprawled on her back in their large bed. "I think, looking back on it all... I'm starting to think that my parents might have actually loved me, and I only ever saw their relationship as a transaction."
"It did seem a bit odd, that your mother was alright with you staying cooped up in your room for so long."
Memi waved it away. "Not really. It would have hurt her own reputation if she'd thrown me out. As if she was so poor that she couldn't take care of her own daughter for a few decades as a house pet. It's one of those things that won't make immediate sense to a human, since you all only live on this plane of reality for so many decades before turning into spirits."
"Dying?"
"Same thing." Memi smiled. "How many times have I had this conversation about the implications of my existence? Heaven does exist, along with a lot of other places, and the immortal soul is a thing; you humans tend to think the experiences of your bodies is all there is to life though you profess otherwise, and the eternal life after death isn't factored into your decisions. But mother knows long-term planning, and I was sure she was willing to have me hanging around as an embarrassment until that situation with my summoning seal worked itself out. I'd never considered that she was actually trying to give me my space until I felt better."
Laura said, "Just not the way demons do things, right? Have you talked to Satilli about it? I'm sure she'd be willing to help work through some of those feelings."
"That one is worse off." Memi said. "He's been a servant of my mother's almost as long as he's been alive, and there isn't the same road to freedom before him that I had. Mother didn't have a contract guaranteeing my work as her apprentice, I'd simply have been kicked out had I refused and she knew I wouldn't. When Hairy contracted me, I was a free particle. But Satilli is allowed to be his girlfriend, I'm sure, because my mother wants to have eyes on me and he was given unto her as an incubus, so his female body is just barely his to do with as he wishes. So... I don't want to dump more pressure on his head."
Laura rolled onto her back and drew Memi to lie atop her, face buried within her magnificent, pillowy breasts once more for suffocating comfort. She stroked Memi's naked back. "That's very kind of you. Good girl~ good girl~ But things like this start to fester when you push them down, and you know that, don't you? That's why you were so mad at him before, and it's why you're regretting it so much now."
Incipient tears stung in Memi's eyes; she blinked them away and nodded into Laura's chest.
"Can you wait one more day to see him, or do you want to go now?"
Memi looked up, pleading. "You'd let me?"
It looked as though humor and relief were duking it out in Laura's expression, and she settled on a wavering smile. "Honey, you're my friend and my girlfriend, not rented property. At least, not de-facto. I know you want to see him and give him all the love that you've been hoarding, and I know that he'll let you pour it all out at his feet."
"Don't you think he'll be mad at me, still?"
"Did you think he ever was?"
Memi pulled herself up and off the bed, trailing Laura's clinging arms. She knew why she'd left in such a huff that day: he'd been dreaming about Satilli so vividly that he thought the girl was working a spell on him. It hadn't smelled right, Satilli was innocent and she'd protested but he didn't believe her. It wasn't that he didn't trust in her, he did... to an extent. But he hadn't been dreaming about the woman he said he loved, who he said he wanted to have his babies in the future, who was right there beside him along with the others. In a competition for his unconscious attention, she'd lost out that day.
"My father had other lovers, too..." Memi said to no-one in particular.
"Wait, what?"
It wasn't as though Memi hadn't told this story before. She'd feared how it would make Laura think of her, moreover how her master would take it if he knew his familiar had been defiled by her own father before, and that she'd wanted it. But where she was now, Laura seemed like the only other person in the world who would have some understanding of where she was coming from. She told the same story that she'd told the woman's father the day before, re-lived the humiliation of being put aside like an unwanted toy after she'd been used up.
