“Then we’ll figure that out too.”

Vera said nothing as she burrowed her face into her neck.

So Teddi held her, trying to will all of the shattered pieces inside of her to find their way home. To alleviate the naked agony that burned through Vera like wildfire.

Chapter 28

Teddi

They sit that way for a while, Vera finally quieting to heavy breaths as she came down. All the while Teddi held on, mind reeling, imagining every scenario that could have led her to this place. Vera scared was one thing. Her unsure of herself was something she never witnessed before.

Finally, Vera pulled away, her hand around Teddi’s jaw, thumb rubbing against the sensitive skin over her pulse. Her eyes were swollen and red, the tears dried now but their discoloration was evidence of the weight she tried to release. Teddi tucked her hair behind her ear gently. Those dark eyes watched her with such vulnerability, such openness that she hadn’t seen even ten years ago. It twisted her soul.

“How do you always know what to do?” Vera whispered, eyes scanning every part of Teddi’s face as if cataloging it.

“I don’t. I don’t know what to do, Vera. Not with you, with this.” She leaned into the thumb that swiped over her cheek.

“You do. You’ve always known what to say and how to be there for everyone. Even when I can’t do it for myself, you know how to find me in the dark. You knew how to do it back then and even now… ” She swallowed thickly and Teddi waited, her breath held, burning in her chest. “Even now you know.” There was more, she knew it, but it wasn’t the right time to ask for things for herself when Vera was hurting.

“Why don’t you get out? Get free of it all and find something that doesn’t hurt you like this.” Teddi asked tentatively. How a career could be worth so much pain, she didn’t know. But only Vera could make that choice for herself.

Vera swallowed as she played with a lock of her hair. “There is no freedom from the truth.” Teddi began to argue when she whispered her name. Her eyes fell to her mouth, pink tongue peeking out to lick her own lips. Heat ignited like a forge low in Teddi’s belly. The dominant grip of her hand at her neck, the tickle of Vera’s breath against her skin. Each point became a living flame.

She should stop her. Stop this. This wasn’t why she ended the call and it wasn’t why she needed answers.

Tentatively, Vera’s lips brushed against hers in question. With one more swipe, they moved, swollen and soft. Teddi flicked her tongue out, catching her top lip. She didn’t want to stop when giving in felt right.

Like melting metals dissolving in flames, they blended together. Soft full lips begging, pulling, pushing for more. Gripping her hair at the roots, Vera pulled her head back, the pain wrenching a cry from her lips. She felt it between her thighs as she squeezed them together in search of relief. Vera traced her jaw, sucking and licking as she ran her nose down the center of her throat as it bobbed on a desperate swallow.

Her deft fingers ran down her sweater, the thick material hiding the depth of sensation as she cupped her breasts. Teddi held still, ragged control all she had as Vera knelt between her thighs. Her fingers explored the sliver of bare skin between her pants and top, the barely-there sensations making her clench. Pushing the sweater off, the material was replaced by her lips, tracing from her belly button to bra.

Forcing herself to commit the moment to memory, she watched as Vera’s eyes darkened hungrily, unclasping her bra and releasing her. Pushing her breasts together, she rested her lips in the deep valley there, exhaling a breath that sent shivers across Teddi’s skin. She needed everything. Every bite and lick and torturous sensation only Vera could give. Maybe Vera needed it too, if only to have control over something for a moment.

Her wish was granted as her mouth sucked in her nipple, the twirl of her tongue vicious as she squeezed, the weight too much for her single hand.

Someone was moaning, begging for more. Was it her? Was that her voice so hoarse and desperate she was begging for more attention, more pressure, more everything?

Releasing her other nipple with a pop, Vera ran her hand down her belly until she palmed her pussy. The crotch of her jeans notched right on her clit, the pressure blinding.

“Again,” she begged, watching her hand ghost over her once more. Vera’s lips fell open, lost in giving her pleasure, eyes hooded. She moaned as she provided, the hard pressure against her pussy like the sweetest cruel gift. Vera pushed her palm down, making a circular motion that made Teddi’s eyes roll back in her head.

“Take these off,” Vera commanded, her fingers going to the zipper. Moving quickly, Teddi pushed the denim down her thighs and Vera pulled it over her bare feet. She palmed Teddi’s thighs as she stared at her apex.

She was unable to do anything but let sensation swallow her whole as her hands massaged their way up her thighs. Thumbs brushed the crease where her panties met her legs.

Moving so quickly she couldn’t stop her, Vera gripped behind her knees and yanked her ass to the edge of the chair.

“Fuck,” she panted. This dance was her favorite, the thing that stopped her heart, that awoke every part of her that lay quiet and dormant when they were apart. Leaning forward, Vera stuck her face between her spread thighs and exhaled, the heat causing Teddi to tremble, gripping the arms of the chair.

Rubbing her lips against the black cotton like she had forever, Vera moaned. “You smell so good.” Teddi exhaled in relief as Vera’s tongue lay flat against her cunt and rolled. She could come, she was so close she could almost taste that painful explosion. She just needed her fingers, or a bare touch of her tongue and she could dissolve into fire.

As if Vera heard her thoughts, she hooked her finger around the thin barrier and pulled it aside, laying her mouth on her. Sucking gently on her clit, she made a sound of satisfaction. Teddi whimpered in return, all that she could give when her entire life was focused on the woman between her thighs. The tongue that flickered her clit, sucked her lips in worship.

“Lick.” Vera pushed her fingers to her mouth, her hungry gaze watching as she opened up. Running her tongue between the pair of those wicked digits she sucked, letting spit soak them. Teddi grazed her teeth as Vera pulled them out. She gently pinched around her clit with one hand as those now wet fingers pushed inside slowly.

“God,” Teddi cried out as her ass lifted off the chair. She began to fuck her hand, hips undulating, begging for more the only way they knew how.

“You feel so good,” Vera murmured as she watched Teddi fall into responsiveness. “Harder?” She fingered her hard, the pressure a thing Teddi would pay for. “Slow?” Withdrawing slowly, she pushed in once more, those devious fingers curling upwards when she reached depth.
