An Unexpected Offer: Part Three
You know the drill.
Beaming contentedly, Faith found the walk to Daatu's door was over all-too-soon. She reluctantly released her hand, smiling self-consciously. "Well, I guess this is it...see you in class, yeah?"
Desperately, Daatu searched for a reason to not say goodbye yet. She wanted to drag Faith into her room and kiss her stupid and then.... Daatu blushed hard and nodded, only to snag Faith's hand and tug her close gently. She wanted to come up with some eloquent way to communicate her feelings, but she was drawing a blank.
The soft, warm hand in hers was intensely distracting, and the fact that she was so close to Daatu...that Daatu had pulled her so close to her, and they weren't dancing, or fighting, or using each other...her heart was pounding in her ears as she squeezed the hand, hoping her face would say the emotions she was too new at to put into words.
Almost as if in a dream, Daatu's other hand came up and a single finger traced those full, soft lips of her dark companion, green eyes sliding closed...
With deep, shuddering breaths, Faith kissed the tip of finger at her lips. The only thing standing between her and being hopelessly lost to the moment were the eyelids mercifully hiding the depths of Daatu's eyes. God, does she even know how beautiful she is? wondered a part of Faith's dazed mind.
The finger slid away, only to have her whole hand come up to cup Faith’s cheek as Daatu leaned up and pressed a hesitant kiss to her lips. She was on fire...burning... Did Faith know at all how... how much she was wanted? Not just physically either...
Faith wrapped her arms around the smaller girl, starting slowly but soon kissing her back earnestly.
The kiss returned, Daatu gave a soft, soft moan as she stepped forward, wanting to be nearer to her door and not in the middle of the hallway.
Her knees could have buckled right then and there, from the sounds Daatu was making, but Faith used all her Slayer fortitude to remain standing. Unaware of the soft noises she herself was making, she brought a hand to caress Daatu's cheek, the gentleness of the gesture offsetting the passion with which they were still kissing.
Daatu's trembling frame ended up pressed firmly against Faith's, trying hard to make them one in spite of their clothes. Both hands wound into Faith's hair, and she nibbled and sucked gently at the brunette's full lower lip.
Gritting her teeth with the effort required not to rip all of Daatu's clothes off right there, Faith managed to break free of the kiss, panting.
Daatu was in much the same state, but she wanted another kiss... a needy, soft moan left her as she cupped Faith's face and kissed her hungrily again, hips rocking slowly against the taller girl. She knew, KNEW nothing would happen tonight but she could not get enough of those lips!
Skin humming with sensation, Faith returned the kiss, trying to remember why she hadn't done this a month ago. She groaned at the feeling of the soft body pressing against hers, causing electric frissons of pleasure to race through her.
Hot, hot, hot... Seething hot and all she wanted was more. It took all of her willpower to force herself to not go further then kissing, force herself to be content with that.
Faith's hands seemed to move of their own volition: one to rest on Daatu's hips and pull her closer, the other to the back of her head, deepening the kiss.
Daatu gasped against her lips and ended up moaning softly against those plush lips, her tongue sliding past Faith's lips to explore her mouth...
Although the whole 'caring' notion was new, Faith was no stranger to kissing, and her considerable skill was put to good use. The sound of the other girl's enjoyment was making her almost lose control, but she managed to exert enough self-discipline to make the kiss teasing. It wasn't shy, but it only delivered the barest hint of what it could.
THAT ripped a not-so-soft moan from Daatu, and she could not let her hands stop from roaming over Faith's torso, ghosting over her hips and under her shirt to tease the skin there...
Faith twitched at the unexpected softness of hands on her skin, and the bewitching sounds Daatu was making. She abandoned the kiss's playfulness, letting her considerable intensity loose.
The smaller girl's hips rocked and ground against Faith's: needing, seeking, wanting. She was all achey and twitchy and wanted...so bad...
The feelings jolting through her with each movement of Daatu's hips brought Faith a wisp of thought. See? You're just going to have sex with her, and then she'll stop caring about you, like always. It hit her like a bucket of cold water, and she forced herself to stop kissing Daatu and hold her hips at arm's length.
The breaking of the kiss ripped a soft whimper of protest from Daatu, but the pushing away of the hips snapped her out of her little... fantasy moment. "Aaah... F-Faith, I..." She took a moment to catch her breath before simply hugging her friend. "Oh Honey... Thank you for...the movie and...spending your night with me... It meant so much..." She whispered softly, meaning every word.
Faith hugged her friend awkwardly, not wanting to risk getting carried away again. "Ahh, wasn't nothin'. I just...wanna make you happy, and...y'know, show you what it's s'posed to be like, bein' a 'real girlfriend' and all," she said bashfully, late realizing she had used the word 'girlfriend' without knowing whether that was what Daatu'd want to hear. "Not that I know anything about that," she muttered.
Daatu purred softly as she remained mostly platonic with Faith, but the soft kisses she was leaving over her jawline and then over her face were anything but, speaking volumes about how she felt about things.
"So it's...okay? I mean, you wanna do the...the girlfriend thing?" Faith asked anxiously, ignoring the evidence in her arms.
"W-We can try... I don't know what... how to... but we can try..." She whispered softly, dropping a most chaste kiss to her lips.
Faith grinned with relief, wrapping Daatu in a bearhug. Never the most well-spoken of individuals, Faith's meager vocabulary didn't make her gleeful whoop any less eloquent.
Daatu grinned and began to purr softly, nuzzling Faith's throat playfully. "I should let you go...b-before..."
Remembering why she had stopped hugging Daatu in the first place, and blushing at the soft contact, she swallowed hard and nodded, not quite summoning the willpower to push away just yet. "Mmhmm..."
Daatu was likewise loathe to break away, and she hit upon an idea and tugged Faith into her room gently. "Want to stay? We can just... "
Biting her lip, Faith followed, not sure what her friend - well, girlfriend now - had in mind, but too intoxicated by her to argue just yet.
"M-maybe we can just...cuddle?"" Daatu suggested shyly, blushing hard and looking away.
Faith flashed one of her quickly-becoming-less-rare genuine smiles, cupping Daatu's chin in her hand and bringing her back to look her in the eyes. "I'd be honored, Princess."
Daatu grinned and slid away to change into pajamas. "I-I got an oversized T-shirt if you want to... change..." she offered gently.
Smirking, Faith nodded her assent. While she liked to sleep naked when circumstances permitted, she was fairly sure this wasn't one of those nights; especially given her unusually honorable intentions.
Daatu handed the shirt over to Faith. it was an oversized t-shirt with some band on it, a hand-me-down from social services before she’d been adopted. She didn’t even listen to the band, really, but she had liked the shirt to sleep in so she had kept it.
Despite her resolve not to ruin things with Daatu by rushing into sex, Faith's instincts for seduction had become so ingrained she didn't always notice them. Thus, it didn't even occur to her to turn around as she stripped off her own shirt to take the one Daatu offered. "Hey, thanks," she grinned, slipping the large t-shirt on.
Daatu blushed hard at the sight of the pretty brunette without a top on... It was most... interesting to see all that pale skin and... Daatu shook her head and slipped into the bed, scooting over so that Faith could join her.
Faith kicked off her jeans and followed Daatu into bed, unaware of the effect she'd had on the petite girl. Once in, she gave a sheepish smile and admitted, "I, uh...don't have a whole lot of practice with this cuddling thing..."
"Shhh... It's really easy..." Daatu snuggled up close, burying her face against Faith's throat and dropped a soft kiss to the skin there before settling down next to her, an arm thrown round her middle.
Faith's breath caught in her throat at the tender gesture, and she had to swallow to keep her eyes from misting up. She kissed Daatu's cheek and mirrored her arm placement gingerly, as if the girl or the moment were fragile as a soap bubble, and would disappear if she so much as coughed.
Within a short while the smaller girl was asleep, breathing low and deep, frame limp at Faith's side, a soft purr emanating from Daatu's slender throat... That was new...
Smiling at the sounds made by the sleeping girl in her arms, Faith fought off sleep just long enough for one clear thought... That jerk must've been crazy, to be able to hurt her like that. Nothing else is gonna hurt this girl if I can help it...she deserves to be...happy... Nodding off, Faith finally succumbed to sleep, and the first sweet dreams in a long time.
You know the drill.
Beaming contentedly, Faith found the walk to Daatu's door was over all-too-soon. She reluctantly released her hand, smiling self-consciously. "Well, I guess this is it...see you in class, yeah?"
