  Lucy reached out and put a hand on the brunette's back trying to calm her friend. Bonnie could have an explosive temper and she didn't want things to get any more out of control than they had already been tonight. It had been a very long day. "What do you have in mind, Chuck?"

  "Well, now money isn't the only way to pay. Women have been providing a service since the dawn of time and I would happily accept that form of transaction as payment for the gas and groceries."

  "I'm a little insulted by that comment, Chuck," Lucy said calmly as she felt Bonnie tense up even more at his words and she squeezed the brunette tighter. "I assume that you are talking about one of us performing a sexual favour in exchange for what we owe for the goods. We are not whores, Chuck."

  He took his cap off and ran his hand through his greasy hair. "That's my offer. I'm not even asking much! Just a little rub and tug and you'll be on your way. Look at me. I'm no prize, you can't blame me for wanting it from one of you two very attractive women."

  "I'm so fucking tired! Can't we get a break from this completely shit house day!" Bonnie cried out angrily to the heavens before stepping forward. "Fine! Fine! This is your birthday and Christmas all wrapped up into one, Chuckie boy! Because I'm going to agree to this repulsive request because I just want this nightmare of a day to be fucking over!"

  The thought of Bonnie touching the repulsive man who was now grinning like a kid in a candy store was too much for Lucy to handle.

  She reached out and stopped her friend. "Bonnie wait!"

  Bonnie turned to Lucy her eyes glistening with unshed tears of exhaustion and frustration. "There isn't any fight left in me today, Lucy. I just want to get to the cabin."

  "You aren't touching him. Stay right there."

  Lucy stepped forward and Bonnie reached out to stop her thinking that the blonde was going to do it instead, which just seemed even worse because of what had just happened earlier tonight and the fact that she didn't touch men, like ever. "Lucy?"

  Lucy shrugged off Bonnie's hand and approached the counter. Chuck had grabbed the gun again confused on what was happening. Bonnie watched as Lucy beckoned Chuck closer with her finger and spoke softly to him. She watched as the man began to nod at what her friend was saying. "So we have a deal?" Bonnie heard Lucy say as she stepped back.

  He nodded and motioned to Bonnie with the shotgun, "If she agrees to it, sure!"

  Bonnie frowned in confusion, "If I agree to what? What deal?"

  "Give us a minute, Chuck. Why don't you get yourself comfortable. Hmm." Lucy said before returning to Bonnie and standing in front of her.

  Bonnie's eyes were glued to the man who seemed even more eager with whatever this new proposition was that Lucy had put forward. He placed the shotgun on the counter once more and climbed up onto the stool that he had been sitting on when she had first entered the store. When he started to undo his pants she looked away and gave her attention to Lucy who was biting her lip. "What the hell is going on?"

  CHAPTER FOURTEEN

  "I gave him a better offer and it doesn't require either of us touching him. I couldn't let you touch him, Bonnie."

  "What is the offer?" Her stomach fluttered when Lucy's eyes seemed to darken a shade as she spoke next.

  "I said we would give him a little show in exchange for the gas and groceries."

  Bonnie frowned even as her heart started thumping faster inside her chest, "What like a strip show? I don't want to take my clothes off in front of him, Lucy!"

  Lucy shook her head, "No...I uh..." she suddenly faltered thinking that her bright idea may be rejected by Bonnie.

  "Come on ladies. I thought you were in a hurry to get out of here. Just get it on already!"

  Bonnie's eye went from Lucy to Chuck and then back to Lucy. "Get it on? Us?" Bonnie's heart felt like it was going to burst out of her chest now.

  "He agreed to us making out a little and some groping above the clothes. No nudity required. Isn't just a little kissing with me better than having to touch Chuck's uh..." Bonnie puts her hand up telling Lucy without words that she should stop talking. Lucy looked at Bonnie's shocked and panicked expression. "It doesn't mean anything, Bonnie. We are friends. I thought that this was a safer, more comfortable solution to our current predicament. I'm not using this situation to force myself or my lifestyle upon you....." Lucy was freaking out and had started babbling.

  Bonnie reached up and placed a finger on the blonde's lips silencing her. Of course Lucy was just trying for a better, less invasive solution, it is what she does, Bonnie thought to herself. How could she possibly know what the thought of kissing her, touching her, is doing to me right now. Bonnie wasn't sure if she was capable of speech as she stared into Lucy's concerned, worried eyes. She just gave her a small nod and moved her index finger over Lucy's lips followed by her thumb before cupping the blonde's uninjured cheek.

  She could barely breathe as she leaned closer to the woman of her dreams. Lucy's hand came up and gripped her by the back of her neck, their mouths only inches apart now, their shallow breaths merging. "Okay?" Lucy asked, her eyes searching, needing Bonnie's full consent before proceeding.

  CHAPTER FIFTEEN

  Bonnie could only nod when only a small whimper escaped from her mouth instead of words. She couldn't form a coherent thought with Lucy's lips so close to hers and the blonde's soulful gaze never faltering from her own. Her brain was shooting sparks of electricity through every single nerve ending with the proximity of the woman she had longed for for so many years. I love you. I love you. I love you, was screaming in her mind as Lucy's lips brushed against hers so softly, almost reverently.

  Bonnie was frozen, she couldn't move and she was thankful when Lucy took charge and deepened the embrace. The brunette couldn't suppress the moan when Lucy's fingers that had been gripping the back of her neck went into her hair as her tongue slipped out and tasted Bonnie's bottom lip.

  Bonnie willingly opened her mouth wider, allowing Lucy's probing, seeking tongue entry and her world exploded into technicolor. She forgot where she was and her hands found the blonde's waist as she completely melted into the kiss, meeting Lucy's tongue with her own.

  She whimpered when she felt Lucy's arms embrace her firmly as they ran down her back and onto her ass, squeezing her through the soft denim of her jeans. Bonnie pulled Lucy's hips closer and shuddered when a thigh met her firmly between the legs. She was lost in a haze of lust and passion that was beyond any of her most vivid fantasies. She pressed herself against Lucy's thigh as the blonde finally broke the kiss and started licking and kissing her neck.

  Neither of them remembered that they had an audience as the two friends who both harboured strong feelings and pent up sexual desires, took what they craved. Lucy's hands found their way to Bonnie's breasts as the brunette shifted her leg slightly to connect with Lucy's heat causing her to murmur, 'fuck' right beside Bonnie's ear. Her legs were shaking and her heart was thundering in her chest as she continued to revel in Lucy's touch. She was unravelling and would lose complete control if she didn't reign herself in, but the thought of stopping what Lucy was making her feel was painful. To Lucy this may be just a show, but to Bonnie having the woman she had loved and desired every single minute for years was beyond anything she could have imagined. She felt complete for the first time both physically and emotionally.

  Something at the back of her mind was telling her that this wasn't where she wanted to lose control and give Lucy the love and pleasure that she had wanted to bestow upon her for so long. That thought and a completely foreign and unwelcome male groan brought Bonnie back from that dangerous cliff of total loss of control. Lucy took command of her lips again and she revelled in the taste, as she felt the blonde's heat rubbing against her leg. Does she feel how perfect this is? Could Lucy possibly feel the same way? Hope was growing even as Bonnie started to reel herself in.

  Bonnie wanted to profess her love to Lucy at the cabin not in some dingy service station with a creepy, deviant, redneck watchin
g. You need to stop this! She heard another grunt to the side of them and Bonnie opened her eyes as Lucy went back to her neck.

  She saw a sight that instantly shut down her passion and realising that this was her chance to get the jump on the pervert who was pleasuring himself behind the counter, she tore herself away from Lucy's arms and crossed the distance to the counter in two long, slightly unsteady strides.

  As expected Chuck was beyond being observant and Bonnie had the shotgun in her hands within seconds and had connected the stock of the gun into his head before he could say or do anything. She watched with disgust as he slid off the stool and onto the floor with a thump, his pants open and exposing a now shrinking erection. "Fucking pervert," she growled at the unconscious man. She felt dirty and sick to the stomach that something so perfect and beautiful had been observed by the man on the floor.

  Her love was pure and it didn't belong in this place and she knew that Lucy was saving her from having to touch him, but at that moment she thought that perhaps she may have preferred it. Because she hated herself for getting so out of control. They had given him a much better show than he had expected.

  She turned to find Lucy looking dishevelled and flustered. She looked sexy as hell and Bonnie thought about crossing the distance between them and kissing the blonde again. She was breathing hard and her eyes were still hooded from what had just occurred between them.

  "Lucy?" Bonnie's heart went into her throat as she really looked at the woman who held her heart and soul. Had she been just as invested and lost in what had just happened? Bonnie thought. Because she appeared to be flushed and there was a distant look in her eyes as if she was still recovering from the heavy making out and groping session. "Lucy?" Bonnie said again a little louder and came to stand in front of the blonde who finally blinked and seemed to focus on her.

  "Uh... What? Sorry... What?" Bonnie smirked as heat infused the blonde's cheeks, making them even more flushed. Bonnie grabbed several bags from the counter and handed them to Lucy.

  "Show's over, Hot Stuff. Chuck had to check out for a while. Take these and put them in the car. I will be there in a moment." Bonnie kept it light and friendly. Now was not the time to analyse if there was truly a mutual attraction and that it wasn't just in her imagination. It felt so right. What you just experienced can't have been just an act, her brain screamed at her.

  Lucy nodded absent-mindedly, obviously completely lost in her head which happened often and was a quality that Bonnie found adorable if not frustrating at times. If the blonde wasn't so hard to read it would have been easier, but Lucy was good at keeping her innermost thoughts to herself unless she wanted to share them. Bonnie watched her exit the building and head to the car. She grabbed a couple of six packs of beer from the fridge and a bottle of whisky and shoved them in a bag, then grabbing the other bag of groceries, muttered that they had earned the booze and left out the door, the bell tinkling in her wake.

  Bonnie bundled the groceries into the back with the other bags and then climbed behind the wheel and turned on the ignition. She looked to Lucy, who met her gaze and gave her a small smile. "Are you ready to leave all this shit behind us and get to the cabin, because I sure as hell am!"

  Bonnie thought that she saw a flicker of sadness in Lucy's eyes, but it was gone in a fraction of a second. "Yeah, I'm ready to just relax by the lake and forget it all," she responded. Bonnie gave her arm a squeeze and then turned to the darkness ahead of her as she pulled out of the gas station and onto the deserted road.

  What Lucy didn't say was that there were a few parts that she didn't want to forget about. After what had just happened between her and Bonnie in there, before it had abruptly ended... had been..... unexpected and confusing. She had never felt such passion before, not even with Nadine whom Lucy had thought was the love of her life until things had turned sour between them.

  Before Bonnie had gotten her attention and out of the mess of emotions and questions in her head, she had been thinking back to several moments since Bonnie had fought with Ryan at the bar. There had been a moment in the bathroom, another one in the car before Lexi had scared the hell out of them. She vaguely remembered laying on top of Bonnie when they had tripped over one another while line dancing, but that was a little fuzzy as was the tenderness Bonnie had shown while cleaning her up after the attack. Something had changed in the dynamic of their friendship and Lucy was beginning to wonder if her fantasies may just become reality.

  CHAPTER SIXTEEN

  Bonnie pulled up to the cabin just as the sun rose, bathing the cabin in welcoming light. Bonnie turned to Lucy, who was once again asleep beside her, shook her arm gently and softly spoke her name.

  Lucy peered at Bonnie sleepily and then smiled when she saw the brunette beaming at her. "Judging from that smile, I take it we have arrived," the blonde said as she stretched out her back and arm muscles relieving the ache from sleeping awkwardly in her seat.

  Bonnie found it incredibly erotic, and had to look away. "Yep, we are finally here and without any more crazies or freaks getting in our way. How about you open up the place while I unload the car?" Bonnie quickly jumped out of the car, suddenly eager to get unpacked and into her room. She was beyond tired and exhausted, but she was also still amped up by the events at the service station. Bonnie had always been aware of Lucy, but now that she knew what it felt like to be kissed by her, held by her, that awareness had increased tenfold.

  Lucy sensed some tension in Bonnie despite how happy she seemed to finally be at the cabin. She pulled the keys from the place her caretaker always left them and entered the cabin. Lucy took a deep breath before she turned around to help Bonnie with the bags. Lucy decided to take the groceries and put them away. She raised an eyebrow at Bonnie when she saw the beer and whisky in one of the bags. The brunette shrugged and said, "We earned it, don't you think?"

  Lucy nodded and went back inside with the bags. She was so confused by her own new awakened emotions that she felt she may have imagined that Bonnie shared them. She wondered if over the next week she should tell her friend about her growing feelings, but she was terrified that if she did and Bonnie didn't share her affections that their friendship would be damaged in the process. Better to keep it to yourself, she thought. Maybe it's because it's been a while and I'm craving a loving touch. Bonnie's touch had felt like it left scorch marks on her, despite the clothing that had been between them and she really wanted to burn beneath that touch again.

  "Lucy..... Lucy?" The blonde jumped at Bonnie's voice from the living area which joined onto the kitchen.

  "Hmm... Sorry... What?" Lucy rolled her eyes at how inarticulate she found herself being after being caught out daydreaming about the brunette that was smirking at her in amusement.

  "I said I am beat and just want to go to my room and sleep. You look tired too. Let's leave the rest till later. I put your bags in your room."

  Oh yeah, separate rooms, the blonde thought morosely. She thought about asking Bonnie to share her room, but instead she just nodded and said, "I will be right behind you as soon as I've put the perishable food away."

  She had been with Nadine every other year they had been up here and they had always had separate rooms. She knew that Bonnie had done it out of respect for Nadine who had often been jealous of their relationship, but now that Nadine was gone, she wanted nothing more than to have her friend sleeping beside her.

  Bonnie paused for a moment before saying she would see her when they had both gotten some much needed rest and shuffled down the hall.

  A few minutes later and Lucy was heading down the same hall to the room she always occupied right across from Bonnie. The door to the brunette's room was closed and she rested a hand on it for a moment listening for any movement inside. She let out a sigh and then went into her room, closing the door behind her. She had a quick shower and then slid under the crisp, fresh quilt and sheets, sighing at the comfort her eyes closing.

  CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

  Bonnie sighed
in frustration as she turned over again and punched the pillow under her head trying to get comfortable. She had heard Lucy come down the hall and she had seen her shadow stop on the other side of her door through the small gap at the bottom. She thought she heard Lucy sigh sadly before going into her own room and closing the door quietly behind her. The next thing she had heard was the shower.

  Bonnie had decided to forgo the shower till she woke up because she had been so desperately tired. But sleep was being frustratingly elusive as she couldn't seem to shut her mind down. Her thoughts were filled with Lucy. She was so close and yet Bonnie couldn't bring herself to get up, cross over that hall and to slip in beside her friend. She knew that Lucy wouldn't object. They had only ever used separate rooms because she had insisted in respect for Lucy's relationship with Nadine and that the temptation would have been pure torture for her.

  Memories of Lucy caressing her body as she kissed her passionately at the service station filled her mind. When the blonde had said 'fuck' in her ear as Bonnie had pressed her thigh against Lucy's sex, she had thought that she would come right then. Bonnie moved her hand slowly down from the side of the neck that Lucy had kissed and licked so thoroughly, to her breast. She could feel the moisture pooling and the sudden rush of heat as Bonnie got lost in the sensations that she had experienced at Lucy's touch.
