Hi my name is Lucy. Up till now my story has really revolved around my mother and me. This is when Denise becomes a bigger part of my life. I would read the first 5 chapters before starting this one or you might be lost. This is quite a departure from the other chapters, but I can only tell you that this is my life.
I might as well have not gone to any of my classes on the Monday before Thanksgiving break, because I know I didn't listen to any of the lectures. All I could think about was Denise. I was just sure she was into me as much as I was into her. That morning in the bathroom, I really looked her over when she was getting into the shower and she saw me do it. She didn't say anything, but I saw her smile and maybe blush a little.
That morning in the shower I rubbed my clit until I orgasmed. She was talking to me the entire time and hearing her voice as I touched myself was so sexy that it didn't take me anytime at all. She got out of the shower before I did, and I wanted to see her so bad that I rinsed quick and pulled open the curtain and dried off right in front of her.
She seemed too embarrassed to look at me while I did it, but as she talked to me I stood right next to her. She was messing with things (shampoo and stuff) in her little bucket she brought, just as an excuse not to look at me. She told me that later, but I could tell right then.
At breakfast I sat next to her instead of across from her like normal and I kept putting my hand on hers or on her leg when ever I'd say something. Just touching her skin was so sexy, and we kept smiling at one another and then one or the other of us would look away embarrassed. It is so funny looking back at that morning, but that's when I knew for sure she liked me too.
I have no idea why it took us both so long to admit it to one another, but I knew that night I was going to do something. So all that day I tried to come up with something to say or do, but everything just seemed so stupid.
When classes were over I went back to my room and just lay on my bed. Alley came in and saw me staring at the ceiling. She must have noticed the smile on my face or something, because she kept asking me what was going on, and who was the guy? She had no clue. I actually admitted that I was falling in love, but I wouldn't say anything else. I just told her I didn't want to say anything until I knew for sure. She thought I was crazy, but she still seemed really happy for me. I talked to her a little bit, but it was hard to talk about how I felt without being specific so I just changed the subject a lot. The problem was I kept staring off and smiling and Alley would always notice and bring it up again.
When Denise got back from class she came to my room right away. She acted differently and I know I was too, and we were both so silly acting. Denise had to go do something, can't remember what, before we could go eat, and after she left Alley gave me this death stare. I asked her what was wrong and she actually asked me, "Is it Denise?"
Now I had never ever admitted to Alley that I was a lesbian. I tried my best to hide it. Now I know I talked to her about her kissing Nikki and even admitted that I had thought about trying something with a girl. Still I don't think she ever suspected it, and now she was asking me this.
I just said, "Yes." I have no idea what gave me the courage to do that, but I did and she just put her hand over her mouth and stared at me for the longest time. Now in reality it was probably only a few seconds, but it seemed to me like an eternity. Then she asked me if I was a lesbian, and of course I told her I was.
She admitted that she hadn't had any idea and I immediately asked her not to tell anyone. She shook her head and just looked shocked. I was scared. She was my roommate and my friend, and I wasn't sure how this would change things.
Then she joked with me and said, "I knew Denise was a lesbian." It was funny, but there was still a small part of me that wasn't entirely sure Denise was. I just started telling Alley everything about how I felt when I was with her and things Denise had said or done, and Alley listened. It was really nice.
Denise and I went to supper later and there was some flirting, but nothing much really happened, and then when we came back to my room Alley and Nikki were there. Alley actually seemed excited for me. I couldn't have asked for a better roommate. I was a little afraid she might have told Nikki or even that she might act differently around Denise, but she didn't seem to and Alley and Nikki left not to long after we came back. They were going to eat and I knew I'd have some time alone, but then I just got scared and chickened out again.
Later we were hanging out in Denise's room and her roommate wasn't there as usual, thank God. We were sitting on the bed side by side reading and as I put my hand down from turning the page my hand grazed her hand. I joked she was on my side and she jokingly argued back and the next thing I knew we were pushing each other's hands back and forth until I was holding her hand. It was like the cutest thing ever. We just held hands for a moment not even looking at each other, and then I just started staring at her. She smiled at me and I squeezed her hand. She squeezed mine back. I'm not sure what I was thinking then, but suddenly I knew I had to kiss her. I sat up and she had this look of fear on her face that actually made me smile, because I knew exactly what she was feeling, because I was just as terrified as she was. I took her book out of her hands and put it on the bed and then putting my hand on the side of her cheek I leaned in and kissed her.
It wasn't like kissing my mom when we had sex, or kissing Sydney either. Those kisses were more passionate and lustful. This kiss was tender and slow and caressing and I never felt so amazing in my life. As we kissed we became more passionate and our hands were on one another, but we weren't groping each other with lustful thoughts, not yet anyway. It was just the most perfect moment and one I will never forget.
Like a fool I spouted that I loved her right then and it scared her, I could tell. I did though. She was my best friend in everyway possible, and now she was about to be my lover. How could I not love her? We stopped kissing and she said we need to talk, and I won't bore you with all the details, but basically she admitted that she was a lesbian (no crap), and that she had never been with a girl before. That's where I bit my lip about my mom, but admitted that I had dated Sydney. She was shocked when I told her Sydney was 24, but she didn't seem upset with me about it. In fact she almost seemed relieved, like at least one of us knew what they were doing. I even explained to Denise how I had broken it off with Sydney because I knew I was falling for her.
