Adrienne was transfixed, she couldn’t draw her eyes away. All her moisture moved to her centre and her body throbbed. It was all she could do not to lift Katherine up, throw her over her shoulder and take her to bed, or have her right there on the terrace. She feared Katherine would see the arousal on her face, so she excused herself to change from her work clothes. The cold shower she took did nothing to relieve her arousal and she could not prevent herself from touching herself, muffling the sound of her intense orgasm with a towel. Joining Katherine in the living room later she had to work hard to appear natural, the guilt she felt at lusting over her friend overwhelming her. If Katherine had noticed anything untoward then thankfully she hadn’t commented.
Adrienne brought her attention back to the present. Pull yourself together, you will not be alone, you’ll be renting out a room, that will keep you busy.
It had already been a long day, Adrienne had started work at 6:30 a.m., the hotel was short staffed and she had had to serve at breakfast, before moving to the reception; then help serve for those that ordered lunch and assist in setting up for dinner. She tried to look as excited as Katherine. “Is it ready?”
Katherine’s wide smile made her laugh despite herself. “Yes, put your swimsuit on and I’ll meet you in the living room.”
“My swimsuit?”
Katherine smiled. “Trust me, and do what you’re told.”
“Yes ma’am.”
A few minutes later Adrienne was standing in the living room, a t-shirt and shorts covering her bikini. Katherine took her arm and led her outside. For the last few weeks a makeshift wooden shutter had covered the back wall. Now removed she could see that the wall had been taken down, meaning that the view from the terrace was not obstructed, instead what could be seen from the terrace was the private beach and the sea. It was breath-taking.
Katherine observed Adrienne’s expression as she walked towards it. She grinned as Adrienne looked at her, tears gathering in the corners of her eyes. “God Katherine, you were so right about taking down the wall, it is amazing.”
Katherine walked towards her, holding her arm tightly. “That’s just the beginning.” She walked across the terrace to the last door on the left and opened it. “I give you, room 1.” Katherine had placed a ribbon across the entrance, she handed Adrienne a pair of scissors and laughed as she cut it.
Adrienne walked in the room. The door had been sanded back and varnished, it gleamed, and new chrome ironmongery shone in the sunlight. The floor was a honey coloured tile and cool underfoot, the re-plastered walls were a soft cream, highlighting the beautiful mahogany around the windows, and the skirting, which had been sanded, repaired and newly stained. There were 2 new small windows looking out to the side of the building with sea views. The bed was a mahogany four poster with white muslin drapes. Two bedside tables, a tall thin chest of drawers and a wardrobe, all of dark wood, matched the bedframe.
Kat had been watching Adrienne as she took it all in. She couldn’t read her expression, and asked hesitantly. “Do you like it?”
Turning she could see Adrienne had tears in her eyes. “It’s beautiful Kat, really beautiful.”
“Go and see the bathroom.” Adrienne walked behind Kat. The bathroom was a pale blue, reflecting its beach location. A claw bath sat on the end wall, with a small window above it, looking out to sea. There was a separate rainfall shower, its simple glass cubicle large enough for two. Two basins sat on a cream marble top above an antique table that Adrienne recognised from one of the buildings, it had been sanded and stained and looked great. The tiles on the floor and walls were large, and pale limestone.
Adrienne stood in the centre and turned around, taking it all in. “God Kat it’s spectacular.”
Phew. “I’m glad you like it.”
Adrienne shook her head. “I don’t just like it, I love it. The way you’ve retained and transformed some of the old furniture too, it’s amazing.”
“Okay, but before I show you the rest I need you to be in your bikini.”
Adrienne nodded, she had seen the double doors, in the old archway in the bedroom. She knew that they would lead onto the beach.
“Come on, hurry.” Kat was already walking out the bathroom and removing her shirt to reveal her own bikini.
Adrienne followed, pulling off her t-shirt and shorts as she went. Kat stopped at the white curtains covering the doors, when Adrienne caught up she pulled them open and pushed open the doors, once more encouraging her to go in front of her.
Adrienne stopped dead and Kat almost walked into her back. “Oh my god Kat, how did you do this?” Adrienne looked around, the double doors led to a newly created small terrace, large enough for 2 rattan sunbeds with blue and white striped cushions, a small table and a jacuzzi. The floor of the terrace and its waist height walls had obviously been created from the stones taken from the demolished wall.
Adrienne turned to look at her. “Kat, it’s incredible, really this must have cost a small fortune.”
“No, I splashed out on the jacuzzi. It’s my gift to you, but the rest was within budget. Come on I’ve got something else to show you.”
Kat walked through a small gate in the wall leading to the beach. “I didn’t want to waste the rest of the wall stones.”
Adrienne followed Kat onto the beach. There were two round terraces, created at either end side of the beach. Shoulder height curved walls covering half the space were to keep out any wind, the base and wall seats were formed from the stones and barbeque grills were built on top of the walls.
“God Kat, I really don’t know what to say.... this is fabulous.”
“There’s enough stones left for the terrace to the room on the opposite corner too.” Whilst all the rooms would have some degree of sea views, they had agreed that this and the opposite end room were to be the most exclusive rooms, given they had the best of the sea views and direct access to the beach.
Katherine watched as Adrienne walked around, touching the stones and sitting on the brick seats and looking out to sea. “This is beyond my expectations Kat.” God I wish you’d share it with me.
Kat smiled. “Who wouldn’t want to stay here?” She looked around wistfully. “Come on, let’s test the jacuzzi.” Kat had switched it on before they left the terrace and it was now bubbling away. “Get in and I’ll be back in a second.”
Adrienne slipped into the hot bubbles and laid back, closing her eyes. Torn between happiness and fear at what this promised for her future.
Kat returned minutes later with a bottle of champagne, an ice bucket and 2 champagne flutes. “I thought this called for a celebration.”
“Oh yes.”
“I forgot to show you the small fridge in the wardrobe.” She stepped into the jacuzzi sitting next to Adrienne. Quickly opening the champagne with a loud pop they watched as the cork flew some way down the beach. She poured 2 glasses, handing one to Adrienne. “Here’s to your future as a boutique hotel owner”
“Yamas and cheers, thankyou Kat, its amazing, you’ve done a spectacular job.”
Kat smiled. “Everything you hoped for?
“Oh much, much more, you’re a woman of many talents.”
They sipped their drinks with Kat explaining what she had done, telling her about the haggling and bargains. “There’s enough bathroom tiles for the opposite room too, oh and I didn’t just import one claw bath, there’s another, I got a great deal.”
The sun had begun to set, a red glow lighting up the terrace, as they looked out to sea.
Katherine was working hard to keep her libido under control. Seeing Adrienne in a bikini, their legs occasionally touching, her head back with a contented look had aroused her. Adrienne’s copious breasts sat slightly above the waterline and bubbles, and she had already fantasised about freeing them from their top. She shut her eyes, trying to control her thoughts. Hearing a small sob she opened her eyes. She looked at Adrienne, finding her gaze on her. Adrienne had tears running down her cheeks.
&
nbsp; “Hey, it’s okay.” Katherine couldn’t prevent herself from leaning in closer, she used her thumb to gently wipe away Adrienne’s tears.
Adrienne grasped her hand, stopping her as she looked Kat in the eyes. “Don’t please.”
“I’m sorry, I just wanted to.......” Katherine watched as arousal painted Adrienne’s face, her eyes looking down at her lips. Oh god she feels something too.
“Kat?”
Kat’s libido lurched back into life stronger than ever. She placed her finger under Adrienne’s chin and lifted her until their eyes met. Leaning in she brushed Adrienne’s lips with her own. “Is this okay?” Katherine leant back and looked deep into her eyes.
“More than okay.” Adrianne groaned as she pulled Kat towards her. Their lips meeting more forcibly.
Kat moaned as Adrienne’ tongue gained entrance to her mouth, when their tongues touched she felt it all the way to her centre, the throbbing intensifying, desperate for attention. God, I want her to touch me. Unable to wait she reached down and lifted Adrienne’s breast above the water, at the same time freeing it from the confines of her bikini. She leant forward and took the nipple into her mouth.
Oh god Kat.” Adrienne thought she might come right there as she watched her nipple disappear between Kat’s beautiful lips. Her thoughts immediately moving to where else she had imagined her mouth and tongue.
Kat sucked and bit gently on the nipple as she reached around and undid Adrienne’s bikini top, tossing it aside as her hand moved to her other nipple.
Adrienne groaned, her hands grasping the back of Katherine’s head, urging her on. Her nipples had always been sensitive, but tonight she felt that there was a nerve directly linking it to her clit, and that it was on fire.
Kat licked and sucked on her nipples, gently biting her.
“Please Kat don’t stop.”
Kat transferred her mouth to Adrienne’s other nipple, at the same time lowering her hand to Adrienne’s thigh.
Adrienne moaned, opening her legs, encouraging her touch. “Oh yes please.”
Katherine’s throbbing intensified as she moved her hand towards Adrienne’s centre, emboldened by Adrienne’s moans. Adrienne opened her legs wide, moving towards her, welcoming her exploration, inviting her in. Kat began to gently stroke her, drawing her nail over Adrienne’s centre on top of her bikini pants. She loved the feel of Adrienne thrusting towards her, her hands continuing to hold her head at her breasts.
Katherine reached behind Adrienne with both hands, lifting her enough that she was able to remove her bikini bottoms. She moved her head up, kissing Adrienne with renewed fervour as she stoked her clit, lowering her fingers to circle her opening and gain moisture from between her lips before returning to the engorged nub.
“Oh god I need to have you Adie please.” As she spoke she circled Adrienne’s opening. “Let me please?”
Adrienne looked into her eyes, her own eyes glazed with arousal. “Yes, Kat please.... please fuck me. I need you inside me.... now.”
Katherine didn’t need any further encouragement. Slowly and gently she pushed two then three fingers deep inside her, spreading her wide. Adrienne almost purred, her muscles immediately contracted, clutching Kat’s fingers.
“Oh god Kat.”
Katherine increased the pressure as she returned her mouth to Adrienne’s. Their kissing was fast and furious, like they couldn’t get enough of each other. Gradually Katherine used the same pressure with her fingers. The water bubbled around them as Adrienne met Kat thrust for thrust. Her own body was responding and she trapped Adrienne’s thigh between her own, rubbing her centre against her to the same rhythm, her arousal rocketing with each thrust.
Katherine curled her fingers inside Adrienne, rubbing her G spot and causing her to spasm. Kat drew out her pleasure, gently rubbing her clit as she moved against Adrienne, beginning her own intense orgasm. They held each other as they regained their breath.
They smiled at each other. “Adrienne, lets take this inside. I haven’t done with you yet.”
Quickly drying themselves they moved into the room and towards the bed. Already naked Adrienne lay down, watching Katherine as she slowly removed her bikini. “God you are beautiful Katherine, please come here. I need to feel you against me, I want the weight of your body on top of me.”
Katherine did as she was told, both moaned as their bodies came together, both already aroused again.
Suddenly Adrienne flipped them over so that Katherine was under her. “I have to taste you Kat.”
Kat smiled, nodding as Adrienne slowly kissed and licked her way down her body, discovering every bit of flesh on her way. Katherine couldn’t remember ever being so aroused, already she could feel her juices running down her thighs. Adrienne spread her legs and settle on the floor between them, her tongue instantly seeking out Kat’s swollen clit.
Katherine lowered her hands to Adrienne’s head, riding her tongue until she crested and waves of pleasure shot through her body. Adrienne’s arms held down her thighs, preventing her body from lifting off the bed. She cried out loudly. “Oh God, yes Adie...oh yes.”
Adrienne crawled up the bed, and they held each other, their bodies slick with sweat. Laughing as they stuck together. Slowing their breathing they pleasured each other again before falling asleep in each other’s arms.
Katherine woke the following morning and reached out for Adrienne. She realised that she had already left for work. Stretching her body, sore from the previous evening, she recalled that they had woken through the night reaching for each other again and again. They hadn’t talked and she wondered what Adrienne was thinking.
She thought about the last few months, and how much she wanted Adrienne. How she dreaded the times she went out without her, terrified that she might meet someone, yet unable to tell her how she felt after their disastrous first attempt at being together.
Katherine knew she was completely over Tanya, she had been for some time now, she hardly thought of her. She had made no decisions yet about her future, but what had started out as lust she knew now had become so much more. She couldn’t help but wonder though whether Adrienne could only be with her when she knew she was about to leave, not wanting commitment.
Finding her watch she realised the time, she would have to move quickly it was already 9:30 and Nic’s plane landed at 11. Katherine changed the sheets, pulling Adrienne’s pillow towards her to breathe in her scent, before showering and heading for the airport.
CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Nicole spotted Katherine as soon as she came through the glass doors. She rushed towards her calling her name and pulled her into a hug, before standing back and looking at her.
Katherine’s hair was almost white, her skin bronze. She looked toned, healthy, and above all happy. It couldn’t be further from when they had last met. “God I’ve missed you Kat, skype is great but there’s nothing like being together. You look fabulous by the way.”
“Thanks Nicole, I feel good. You look great too.”
“What pale and uninteresting? Really though things are good, I’ll fill you in later.”
“You are never uninteresting Nic. Come on let’s get you home.”
“Home?” Nicole stopped and looked at her, her eyebrow raised questioningly.
“Come on.” Katherine took her case from her, leaving her with a bag. She led her to her jeep.
“Nice wheels.”
“Yes, it’s rented, but Adrienne’s cousin gave me a good deal. Everyone works together here to help each other, unlike London where you don’t even know your neighbours.
“That’s not true actually, Kevin and I have dinner with our neighbours regularly.”
“Yes, but given you are the acting landlord, you have reason to visit them.”
“Anyway, I hope its got air conditioning, bloody hell it’s hot.”
“You’ll be fine once you change.” She looked down at Nicole’s jeans and shoes, fine for London but too heavy for Crete.
&nbs
p; Nicole caught her up on the gossip from home as they drove to Aghios Nikolaos. Kat drove her around the town briefly, giving her a quick tour, before taking her to the house. Nicole’s jaw dropped when she walked into the courtyard and saw the beach. “God Kat you didn’t exaggerate, this is one hell of a view.”
Kat smiled and led her into the finished room, trying to keep her mind from the events of the previous night. Her body still tingled from Adrienne’s touch, she still felt tender from Adrienne’s fingers deep inside her. When she woke she had considered stopping in at the hotel briefly, even to speak to her for five minutes, but time unfortunately hadn’t allowed it.
Katherine watched Nic walking around the room, into the bathroom and onto the terrace. “It’s really amazing Kat, you’ve done a fabulous job, it’s like a bridal suite. Shame Kevin couldn’t come, it might have given him some ideas. If the whole place ends up like this Adrienne will be sitting on a gold mine. Does she like it?”
“Yes, she loves it too.”
“God, who wouldn’t, it’s idyllic!”
“Thanks Nic, for coming out I mean, I’ve really missed you, and having your opinion on this means a lot to Adie too.”
Nicole pretended to be bored, yawning. “Yes, it’s such hardship for me, being your friend and having to come to Greece like this, however I’ll put on a brave face.”
Katherine laughed. “Thankyou.”
Nic put on a stern face. “Yes, well, the room certainly meets my approval, but as for the customer service.... I mean the sun is well over the yardarm and I see no sign of a welcoming drink, with alcohol of course. Sadly, your online rating is slipping by the second.”
Kat laughed curtseying low to the ground. “Madam I do apologise, I will immediately rectify that issue, thankyou so much for bringing it to my attention.”
