Carrie’s kiss was tentative at first, and Gage realized that she hadn’t even asked if this would be Carrie’s first kiss with a woman, but it was too late to ask that now. It didn’t take long for Carrie’s lips to part, though, and Gage took that as her chance to deepen the kiss, letting her tongue meet Carrie’s. She moaned then, and while she wasn’t embarrassed by it, she had never moaned just from kissing a woman before. Both of her hands were in Carrie’s hair now, and Carrie’s were around her back, rubbing it up and down. Before Gage knew it, she had Carrie pressed to the door, and her lips went to her neck, nipping and sucking. It all just felt so good. Then, her eyes went wide, and she pulled back, removing herself from Carrie’s body completely.
“Oh, my God. I am so sorry.”
“What? Why?” Carrie asked, breathing hard.
“I didn’t mean for that to happen. I–”
“Hey, I liked it. I wanted that, Gage.” Carrie pulled her back to her by the hand. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
“I had my hand in your shirt.”
“Did I push it away or tell you to stop?”
“No, but I don’t want you to–”
Carrie cut her off with a quick kiss.
“How about we say that good night now, and we talk about travel and other stuff tomorrow? Maybe we’ll do more of what we just did, too. I really, really liked it.”
“I didn’t make you uncomfortable?”
“No,” Carrie said and pulled her in tighter. “I can feel you down there against me, you know?”
“I should really take this damn thing off.”
“I didn’t say it was a bad thing.”
“Some women don’t like it. I’m not a guy. They want a woman. A butch one, but a woman, and it’s not something they like.”
“Well, I don’t know what I’ll like for sure, but I have a few ideas. This doesn’t bother me at all, okay? If we get there, and you want to maybe put on a functional one, I think I’d be interested in that.”
“Oh, yeah?” Gage lifted an eyebrow. Then, she moved her lips to Carrie’s neck again, kissed her there once, dragged her lips to Carrie’s ear, and whispered, “I’ll happily be your guinea pig. Anything you want – yours.”
When she pulled back, Carrie’s expression was a little shocked, so she kissed her open lips that still hadn’t closed from that shock and laughed a little.
“I think I’ll leave you with that. Sleep well, Carrie. I’ll see you in the morning for breakfast.”
“Yeah, that,” Carrie replied.
Once she was back in her room, Gage flopped down onto the bed and wondered if Nia had been right all along. Participating might just be the way to go.
CHAPTER 30
Becky
“Do you want to get anything?”
“From the den?” Helena asked.
“Yes,” she said.
“Doyouwant to get anything?” Helena checked.
“No, I’m good here. Well, I’m good here for now, but there’s literally a free sex toy shop down the hall. I think maybe we should try out a few things while we’re here, if you’re interested.”
“I’m interested in you,” Helena stated with a wink.
“Nice one,” Becky replied and took a sip of her wine. “And I love that we got to eat dinner in here by ourselves. The others are nice, but I just want you.”
