"You're welcome." Melinda took the full cup of coffee from Emma and their fingers touched. Emma hesitated releasing her grasp as the jolt of electricity snapped through her body. Melinda's eyes never left Emma's face but they glowed hotly as Melinda felt the same jolt of feeling.
"What's your day look like?" Melinda tried to keep her voice normal but Emma's touch had knocked her composure. She had to struggle with her breathing.
"Busy." Emma released the coffee cup and sat down, her eyes sliding over Melinda's trim body in her very professional business suit. "You look terrific."
"Thank you. I have a meeting to attend." Melinda blushed as she smiled at Emma. "Can we see each other tonight?"
"Sure." Emma's heart pounded in her chest. "Is everything okay?"
Melinda bent closer to Emma with a grin. "Everything is absolutely perfect. I just don't want to wait until Friday night."
"What would you like to do?"
Melinda didn't say a word but her blue eyes held Emma's attention, a sexy little grin on her face. Her response was cloaked in the hot gaze she directed at Emma. Emma felt it all the way to her toes.
"Ah, I think I'll fix a light dinner for two." Emma was suddenly very nervous and breathless.
"I'll be there by six." Melinda's look of promise had nothing to do with arriving on time.
"I'll be waiting." Emma's voice cracked, her heart pounding loudly in her chest. One long last look and Melinda left a flustered Emma in her office.
"Damn." Emma cursed as she jostled her coffee, spilling some on her desk. She had no control over her reaction to Melinda. "Calm down, girl."
"Ms. Sharp, are you okay?" Emma looked up into the concerned eyes of Jeremy Little, ninth grade class president, and her first appointment.
"I'm fine, Jeremy. Come on in." Emma chuckled. "I just spilled my coffee and was telling myself what a klutz I am."
Jeremy grinned at his favorite counselor. There was nothing klutzy about Ms. Sharp. Boys and girls alike found her open, honest, and in the teenage vernacular, hot. The two of them immediately began to chat amiably as they worked on the ninth grade class assembly. Once the meeting with Jeremy was over, Emma had student after student in her office and very little time for any breaks. Her days were usually very busy, but this particular day it threw her off. She had way too much emotion churning in her head, and a nervous feeling in the pit of her stomach.
Emma burst into her house at five-forty completely unraveled. She had twenty minutes to straighten her house, clean up, and start dinner before Melinda arrived. A last minute minor emergency kept Emma overly long at school. She'd just gathered her junk out of the living room when the doorbell rang.
"Damn." Emma rushed to open the door, her heart pounding in her chest as she took a big breath before she yanked it open. Melinda and Tia were standing together on the front porch. Emma's heart jumped in her chest at the sight of Melinda.
"Hello." Emma's stunned face gave her away as she looked at Tia.
"Hey, girlfriend, invite us in." Tia teased as she followed Melinda into the house.
"Tia, what are you doing here?"
"Don't sound so thrilled to see me." Tia hugged her with a knowing grin. "I'm on my way to a dinner meeting and I thought I would stop by and say hello. Melinda and I ran into each other outside."
"Do either of you want a glass of wine?" Emma's nerves were frazzled. Tia recognized the signs and placed her hand on Emma's arm.
"No, I just want a hug and a promise that you'll call me sometime this weekend." Tia requested, deciding to give the two women a break.
Emma hugged her tiny friend tightly. "I promise I'll call you."
"You better." Tia threatened with a smile. "Melinda, it was nice running into you."
"Tia, you don't have to leave." Melinda felt bad that Tia was going to take off. She'd just arrived.
"Melinda, I really do have a meeting. Emma, love you, girlfriend." Tia hugged her best friend as she headed for the door. She almost laughed out loud. Emma and Melinda wanted to be alone in the worst way.
"I'll call." Emma responded as Tia waggled her fingers and shut the door behind her. If Tia read all the signs, Emma's many months of no sex were about to come to an end, and very quickly.
Emma sighed heavily and turned to Melinda. "Hello."
"Hi." Melinda grinned as she closed the space between herself and Emma. She slid her arms around Emma's neck as Emma's body molded to her own.
Their lips met in a hungry kiss as their attraction for each other unleashed itself. Emma's mouth drove Melinda crazy as she first kissed her with hot, wet kisses, her tongue sliding deliciously against Melinda's lips, running her tongue through her mouth. She then tasted the very sensitive skin behind her ear and down her neck. The jumble of feelings Melinda felt were all tied up in an overwhelming hunger to make love.
Melinda's arms dropped from Emma's neck as she slid her hands down Emma's slender back to her waist and rested them on her hips. Hesitating for a moment, she felt Emma's lips nibbling at the tops of her breasts. She hadn't even noticed Emma had unbuttoned the top of her dress. Her hands slid down Emma's hips and clasped her body tightly against her own, their hips straining against each other's. Melinda found Emma's lips with her own in a searing kiss, her hands sliding up and cupping Emma's heavy breasts. The moan that escaped from Emma as Melinda kissed her again was all the encouragement Melinda needed. Her fingers found Emma's swollen, aching nipples and caressed them through the silk fabric of her blouse.
Emma pulled her mouth away from Melinda's as she tried to catch her breath. "Are you sure about this?"
"No." Melinda answered truthfully. "But I want this." Her fingers still stroked Emma's breasts as she gazed into her eyes. "I want to make love with you very much. It's all I think about."
Emma's sexy smile was answer enough, as Melinda kissed her again. "Melinda, the bedroom." Emma gasped as she tried to move them in the general direction.
Melinda looked up at Emma as she was tugged down the hall. This was so overwhelming, her wanting her so much. She had never felt this way before for any woman. She couldn't think normally about her. Maybe if they slept together the feeling will dissipate and she could deal more rationally with it. As they entered the bedroom, Melinda's mouth again found her lips, Emma's fingers immediately going to the buttons of Melinda's jacket. Her hands shook as she rapidly removed Melinda's jacket and blouse.
"Emma." Melinda whispered against Emma's mouth. "Let me undress you. I've been dreaming about this since the moment I met you."
Emma's heart melted at Melinda's words, as she stood up straight in front of Melinda. She gazed at Melinda, a sensuous smile on her face, her body shivering with a deep craving. Melinda's hands trembled as she slid Emma's blouse from her shoulders and dropped it on the end of the bed. The lacy beige bra that Emma was wearing made Melinda breath deeply.
"You're so beautiful." Melinda smiled at Emma as she ran her hands down her shoulders and arms enjoying the feel of her skin. The tall, beautiful woman with the golden eyes glistening at her almost overwhelmed her. As Melinda leaned forward and kissed Emma softly, Emma's lips opened to allow Melinda's tongue to sweep through her mouth.
Emma's knees were weakened as Melinda's kiss created a new flame of passion burning throughout her body. Melinda's mouth on her upper breasts caused her to slide her arms around Melinda's waist for support, her legs wobbling. Melinda's fingers fumbled with the straps of Emma's bra and it slid away from her body to fall to the floor. Emma blushed as Melinda's eyes slid over Emma's full breasts. Emma had always been a little embarrassed of her overly endowed figure. Combined with her height, Emma's body had always attracted attention, but not always the kind Emma wanted. She started to raise her arms to hide her breasts. Melinda gently grasped her wrists to stop her.
"Emma, look at me." Melinda touched Emma's cheek. "I love the way you look. I have been fantasizing about this moment since the first moment I met you. Your body is incredibly beautiful. But, it is not
just about sex. I watch you with your students. They love you, and that tells me more about you then anything else. I've seen your face when you talk to them. You love your students as much as they love you. I find that almost as appealing as standing here with you. You are so full of love for your work. I am humbled by the talent you have for making everyone who comes in contact with you feel special."
"Melinda, I haven't slept with anyone for over a year." Emma shook in her arms. Emma was never that comfortable being completely naked and she wanted this night to be perfect.
"Emma, I haven't slept with a woman since Rita and that whole mess over a year ago." Melinda was terrified when it came to pleasing Emma. Her self esteem had taken a huge blow with her last relationship.
Emma's fear evaporated as she saw the insecurity on Melinda's face. "Do you think it's like riding a bike? Does it come back to you?" Emma grinned as she quickly unbuttoned Melinda's jacket and blouse.
Melinda chuckled responding to Emma's teasing. "You'd better hope it comes back."
"Oh, somehow I don't think we have anything to worry about." Emma laughed, pushing Melinda's jacket and blouse off her shoulders.
"You have lots of faith in our abilities, darlin'."
"Honey, we're two very smart, talented women who should be able to handle this." Emma very quickly slid Melinda's slacks and nylons down her hips and bent over to slide them down Melinda's long slim legs. "But if you keep speaking in that bone melting southern drawl, I can't guarantee anything."
Melinda's chuckle made Emma smile. "I am going to do more then melt your bones with words." Melinda tugged Emma to her feet and covered her mouth with a kiss.
Melinda's hands stroked Emma's back, her lips feasting on Emma's mouth. Emma stripped Melinda's bra from her body and they were breast to naked breast. Emma felt the familiar tug of heat between her legs as their breasts rubbed against one another's. Melinda's hands once again cupped Emma's breasts and then found her nipples, drawing a hiss from Emma. Melinda's lips covered Emma's breasts with kisses and Emma trembled again with passion.
"Darlin', I am going to melt this beautiful body with my mouth because I am going to kiss you from head to toe." Melinda's mouth illustrated her intentions as she suckled on Emma's nipples and rapidly removed Emma's remaining clothes.
"I don't think you've forgotten a thing." Emma sighed, sliding her hands along Melinda's ribs and around her breasts. Emma turned Melinda and gently pushed her on to the bed following her on to it, her mouth surrounding a nipple. Her hands slid over Melinda's body as her lips covered Melinda's breasts with kisses. Melinda's body writhed under Emma's attentions, her body on fire as Emma's mouth traced over her stomach and hips. Melinda's moans of pleasure and her passionate words of encouragement let Emma know she was pleasing her with her lovemaking. Emma's hands traveled over Melinda's thighs and calves as her lips nuzzled the tops of her legs. Making love to Melinda was overwhelming. She had never found such pleasure and emotion during lovemaking. Pleasing this woman had become her single goal. The scent of Melinda's body was mesmerizing to Emma, as her mouth covered Melinda's swollen center.
"Emma!" Melinda gasped as her tongue teased her, streaks of unbelievable pleasure coursing through her body. Emma smiled as she feathered her fingers against Melinda and then slid them inside her. She loved that Melinda's tight center was slick with moisture, while her tongue found her sensitive tissue and tasted her for the first time. She stroked and teased Melinda as her hips jerked and twisted, her hands clenched in the sheets. The tensing of Melinda's thighs and hips caused Emma to increase the pressure of her tongue as Melinda began to gasp. An orgasm shattered Melinda's body as she dissolved with wave after wonderful wave. Emma rested her face on Melinda's stomach holding her grasp on Melinda's hips. Melinda's fingers unclenched from the sheet and found Emma's hands holding her hips. She slid her hands into Emma's and held on tightly, her body shivering with the aftermath of Emma's lovemaking.
"I wonder what you would have done to me if you had been practicing for the last year." Melinda whispered with a grin as Emma moved up her body to hold her tightly.
"I'll probably need to do that ten or twenty times to get it right." Emma whispered in return holding Melinda tightly in her arms.
"What a truly luscious suggestion." Melinda smiled as she nuzzled Emma's neck. Slowly she rolled Emma on to her back. Melinda's lips slid deliciously across the sensitive skin of Emma's neck and shoulders. Emma held her arms loosely around Melinda's waist, absorbing the pleasure of Melinda's attentions. Melinda's mouth savored Emma's breasts, covering them with hot, moist kisses, her fingers stroking, and teasing her breasts. Emma's body shivered with passion, as Melinda teased her nipple with her tongue, before surrounding it with her lips. A cry burst from Emma as she arched her back while Melinda sucked on her nipples. The heat from her mouth created shock waves in Emma's body. Melinda's hips slid against Emma's, while her hands traced the skin of Emma's ribs and hips.
"Wrap your legs around my waist." Melinda requested, as her hands sliding down Emma's thighs. Her fingers slid against Emma, drawing another cry from her as she did as Melinda asked. "You feel so wonderful, so wet, and so tight."
Emma reacted to her words as Melinda stroked her erotically. Emma pulled Melinda's face up to hers and kissed her while Melinda's fingers slid tantalizingly into Emma. That very intimate joining between them brought tears to Emma's eyes as Melinda kissed her, her tongue sliding against Emma's with the same rhythm as her stroking fingers. Grasping Melinda's hips tightly in her hands, Emma pulled her firmly against her body as the first stirrings of an orgasm chased through her body. Melinda's kisses caught the moans that Emma couldn't control. Melinda's stroking deepened until she pushed Emma over the edge, her body shattering into a shimmering, pulsing center of pleasure. Emma buried her face in Melinda's neck as she shivered and shook, unable to do anything more then gasp. Just as her body's shaking began to subside, Melinda's stroking began anew and Emma's body was once again engulfed in an even more earth shattering orgasm.
"Emma, you are so beautiful." Melinda whispered, kissing Emma deeply. Emma smiled at Melinda as she responded to her words.
"Are you sure you haven't been practicing? You're very good at this." Emma's lips traveled over Melinda's jaw before kissing her thoroughly.
"Honey, we just moved mountains." Melinda laughed, rolling on to her side and pulling Emma into her arms.
"We did, didn't we?" Emma sighed leaning on her elbow, watching Melinda. "Are you hungry, do you want a bite to eat?"
"Honey, I'm hungry, but not for food." Melinda whispered, tugging Emma until she lay on top of her. Her lips teased Emma's neck.
"So Ms. Georgia, what have you got in mind?" Emma's hands found Melinda's breasts and her lips nibbled on her nipples.
"Nothing, you just made every thought float out of my head." Melinda moaned, her own hands reaching for Emma's breasts.
"Let me see if I can help you with your memory." Emma smiled as she sat up on Melinda's hips and bent over to suck Melinda's nipple into her mouth. Melinda arched her chest up against Emma's open, hungry mouth, groaning with pleasure.
It was after eleven before the two of them finally took time out for a bite to eat. Melinda was wearing a robe of Emma's while Emma had thrown on a royal blue nightshirt. They sat at the kitchen counter sharing a sandwich and a glass of milk. They still felt the need to touch frequently as they shared their thoughts. They both felt the connection and we're unable to do anything but succumb to it. Something meaningful and real had happened to the two of them. Melinda was very much at home, as she sat in the cheerfully decorated kitchen next to Emma. The house was so much a part of her. It was comfortable, beautiful, and peaceful. Melinda felt the pressure in her heart when she looked at Emma and she sighed quietly. In one breathtaking moment, she had fallen in love.
"Melinda, can I ask you something?"
"Of course."
"Are you going to be okay with this?" Emma placed her hand on Melinda's a
rm.
"I'm certainly okay with seeing you. Are you okay with our seeing each other?"
"I'm more then okay." Emma kissed Melinda softly. "I just don't want to make it uncomfortable for you. I know how important your career is."
"Emma, the only thing I ask is that we keep our relationship private, and outside of the school."
"I can do that. Now, are you going to sit in the kitchen all night?"
Melinda grinned happily at her. "No. What do you have in mind?"
Emma tugged on Melinda's hand until she stood up in Emma's arms. "Several things."
"Maybe we ought to discuss this in the other room." Melinda suggested, leading the way into Emma's bedroom. The night was perfect in every way as they made love slowly, savoring their feelings, and each other's body before drifted off to sleep. They were steeped in passion and the hint of love they were both feeling for each other.
