“Don’t come. Let me,” Helena said. “Please.”
Jennifer moaned because she wanted that. Yes, having another woman make her come would be great, but she also wantedthisorgasm by her own hand, so when Helena started to come, Jennifer stroked faster and came without making a sound. And there was something extra hot about that, forcing herself to keep quiet, pretending as if she hadn’t just come hard against her own hand and that her clit wasn’t pulsing hard because,finally, she’d given it release. Getting off at the hospital had never been an option for her. It wasn’t like some of the medical shows made it out to be. Doctors and nurses weren’t fucking each other in on-call rooms left and right. She also thought it inappropriate to do anything sexual at work, even kiss her own girlfriend, so that left her little time to take care of her needs. She was looking forward to working more traditional hours and having more chances and energy to go on dates and take care of herself when no one else was available.
“Get up here,” Helena said after a moment. “And tell me what you want.”
Jennifer didn’t tell her that she’d just come. She could always come again, and with the taste of Helena on her lips, she took off her clothes and watched as Helena stripped out of her dress. Helena was a beautiful woman, and had she not been totally hung up on another woman Jennifer had seen her stare at all evening, she might have even pursued something beyond tonight, but she wasn’t about trying to make something work with someone who was into someone else. Revenge sex or maybe just sex, she could do, though.
She pointed for Helena to go back on the bed, and when Helena’s head hit the back of the pillows, Jennifer moved to straddle her face.
“You’re close already, aren’t you?” Helena asked.
“Yes,” she said, because while shehadtechnically come once, she would come again very quickly while she was this sensitive.
She lifted Helena’s head to her center and let her take it from there as she pressed her hands to the wall behind the bed and listened to the sounds of sex from the room behind theirs. She had no idea who was in that room, but it didn’t matter. It sounded like someone was having a great time, and it only spurred her on.
“God, yes,” she encouraged. “There. Fuck. That’s good. You’ll make me come.”
Helena moaned into her, and Jennifer tilted her pelvis to give her better access. When she reached behind her and began stroking Helena’s clit with her hand, Helena moaned again but made no move to stop her. In fact, she just gripped her hips tighter.
“I’m coming,” Jennifer said, rubbing her clit over Helena’s chin rapidly to help ride out her orgasm. “Fuck, yes,” she added for good measure.
When she could tell that Helena was coming as well, she stopped moving her hips and lifted herself a little to let the woman breathe and moan out her pleasure. She rolled off Helena a moment later and lay on her back staring up at the ceiling, trying to catch her breath.
“That was great. Thank you,” she said after a minute of silence. “God, I really needed that.”
“Me too,” Helena replied. “I don’t think I knew how much. You have a very talented mouthandfingers.”
Jennifer laughed and said, “And your tongue is amazing. I could let you lick me all night.”
“I might need to take a few breaks.” Helena chuckled.
“And I might need to sleep. I’m going off of just a few hours, which I’m used to, but the flight was bad, and I think you just took a lot out of me, too.”
“Understood. I can leave you alone so you can get some sleep.”
“I’m not kicking you out,” Jennifer said.
“No, it’s okay. I think I’d like to be in my own room now anyway. This was… weirdly, what I needed, given my circumstances, but I think I’d like to be alone now. I have some processing to do after today. Thank you for this, Jennifer. Really. Is that okay to say?”
“Totally. And same to you,” she replied. “Hey, what are you going to do about Becky?”
“That’s why I need to be alone: to do some thinking on that front.”
Jennifer closed her very tired eyes and said, “Well, if it doesn’t work out with anyone else here for you or for me, and you want to have some more fun, I’d be okay with that. Like I said, sex can just be sex.”
“I’ll keep you posted,” Helena replied with a laugh, and Jennifer felt her get out of bed.
A few minutes later, Helena left the room, and Jennifer rolled over. She’d come here to find love,notsex, but if sex was all she was going to get tonight, she’d at least had somegoodsex.
CHAPTER 19
Jennifer
Jennifer had slept in for the first time in a very long time. Her first reaction when she had woken up had been to reach for her phone, but she realized that it wasn’t there once her eyes opened fully. Only then did she remember where she was and what she was doing there. She’d slept like the dead, which wasn’t something she did very often because she needed to wake up fast if she slept at the hospital or at home when she was on call. It was a skill that many doctors had to pick up during their internships. Her body wasn’t sore, she thought, when she took stock of it, which was a good thing because she had several days of possible sex ahead of her.
After checking the digital clock and its bright red, blinding numbers, she knew she needed to get up and get moving. For one, she needed to pee, but she also needed to shower and grab food. She wasn’t a big breakfast person, so something small like a granola bar would suffice, along with some coffee; hopefully,goodcoffee. By the time she’d taken care of what she had needed to, the time on that same clock showed that it was past eleven, which meant she had missed breakfast and would have to grab something from the kitchen. Since she could do that at any time and there was no longer a rush, she decided to take advantage of the back patio and the fact that it had a beautiful view of tree-lined mountains in the distance. She wrapped herself in ablanket from her bed and headed outside, surprised to find no one else there.
It was a beautiful morning, and their daily forced activity that wasn’t actually forced would begin soon. Jennifer sat on one of the chairs and thought about the previous night. She had never been embarrassed about sex. She’d been raised by two sex-positive parents, and she was a medical professional on top of that, so she understood the mechanics and had no shame associated with it, but she’d never really been the one to initiate something. Last night, though, she’d been the one to suggest that Helena basically have revenge sex that she herself wasn’t even sure could be classified as revenge sex. She’d just wanted it, so she had asked for it. Helena was pretty. She seemed well put-together. And Jennifer hadn’t wanted to be the only one not having sex last night because someone from Helena’s life had shown up.
