Ruby nods with her heart pounding in her throat. Ellie is the one controlling the moment and it's not that Ruby minds, but she should be the experienced one in charge.
They both fall onto the bed in their underwear and kiss for a long time while their hands begin to know eachother in a different way. Their skin burns together and the sweat between them becomes evident. Although Ellie has been more forward, soon fear invades her. She doesn't know what else to do; she wants many things but is used to others. She closes her eyes for a moment. Breathes and lets it all out.
"From this moment on, you're in charge," Ellie tells her with her lips pressed to Ruby's mouth. "And Ruby," she looks up, "don't stop, I want to feel you everywhere."
Ruby, who felt paralyzed, thinks for a moment that after today many things might happen. Ellie might realize that, no matter how much she loves her, being with a woman isn't for her, and that makes Ruby tremble with fear, though it also serves as an incentive because if they can only make love once, Ruby Hebert is going to give it her all.
Ruby kisses her deeply while skillfully removing her bra. Then she turns and stands up to undress completely, and when she sees Ellie's dilated eyes, she knows she's on the right track. Instead of getting rid of her friend's panties, she begins kissing her ankles and works her way up until she encounters that musky scent she's always liked, though this one, without a doubt, drives her wild. She distributes short kisses around the area without even brushing that sensitive point she knows is already swollen. No more nonsense; Ruby is good in bed and she's going to prove it to the woman lying in her sheets. She traces Ellie's body with her tongue, very calmly, while her hands touch everycorner of her skin. She reaches her nipples and floods them with saliva to suck them skillfully.
"Fuck, Ruby," Ellie's husky sound breaks the silence of the room and makes Ruby try harder.
Ellie keeps caressing her, though she doesn't yet dare with certain parts, but when she feels Ruby's hand slip under the elastic of her panties and her fingers slide with amazing ease, she can't help squeezing her friend's breasts. She loves breasts; they're soft like stress balls that are worth keeping close all day.
Ruby wants to tell her she's very wet, but it seems too crude for a first time, so all she does is smile and continue touching her softly and tormentingly.
"Open your legs a little," she asks before biting her jaw.
Ellie moans and opens immediately to feel Ruby fill her in an exquisite way. The sound is glorious to Ellie, that splashing of Ruby's fingers fucking her with almost surgical precision that makes her eyes struggle not to roll back. It seems the connection between them also works in bed because Ruby begins to move her fingers in and out with more force just when Ellie needs it. The orgasm is right there, about to sweep her away, and she needs it so badly that, with her left hand, she guides Ruby's head to one of her nipples. Then she feels it; as soon as her tongue makes contact with that button, Ellie explodes. With all her nerve endings collapsing, Ellie arches her back and opens her mouth to release all her breath. She moans, moans very loudly while scratching with animal force the back of the woman who's giving her this moment of intense happiness.When the aftershocks are all that remain, Ruby removes her fingers from inside her and Ellie relaxes.
"Incredible," Ellie babbles, but feels another jolt when Ruby Hebert puts the fingers she was fucking her with into her mouth. "Shit."
Ellie maneuvers and lays Ruby on her back on the mattress. Her hands tremble because the excitement is brutal. She's less romantic, not because she doesn't want to be, but because she can't be at that moment, and when she sees the wetness between her best friend's legs, her impulse is to penetrate her.
Ruby huffs because what she's experiencing is better than she always imagined. She has Ellie Trahan naked, pumping into her while caressing her breasts and looking at her with maddening desire. They're both sweaty and Ellie fucks her with such force that her tits move up and down. Ruby wants to come how she likes, so she lowers a hand and masturbates with the efficiency of someone who knows her own body. The best is coming, but what Ruby doesn't expect is for Ellie to notice, lean in, and kiss her on the lips with such hunger that the orgasm completely demolishes her.
"Are you okay?" now it's Ellie's turn to ask when she notices Ruby's accelerated breathing.
Ruby opens her eyes and looks at her with affection. Both their eyes fill with tears, but it's Ruby who breaks down crying. Ellie hugs her and can't help letting several tears fall too.
"You don't know how much I've wanted this," Ruby says between hiccups.
Ellie separates a little from her and kisses her again.
"I've been wanting it my whole life too, even if I didn't know it," she says and cleans her face. "No one is like you, Ruby Hebert, no one."
Chapter 27
Ellie opens her eyes when she feels Ruby shifting beside her. She's facing the ceiling, with just enough light coming through the window to know that dawn will break fully soon. Ellie blinks while thinking that if there were a mirror above her, it would reflect her satisfied smile. One that springs from deep within her that she can't—nor wants to—contain.
"Are you awake?" Ruby asks in a very soft voice.
"Awake and highly satisfied," Ellie blurts out, turning toward Ruby to meet a gaze full of tenderness.
Ruby raises her eyebrows and smiles with amusement.
"Highly satisfied?" she asks, still not believing what has happened between them.
"Very much," Ellie confirms and brings a hand to her forehead, releasing a sigh so deep it sounds like a moan. "No one has ever fucked me so well. I came so hard I thought I was going to have a heart attack, but I don't want it to go to your head."
Ruby smiles and shakes her head to assure her it won't. At another time, she would really enjoy that compliment, but now she has other things on her mind.
"We should talk, Ellie," she says while watching her.
"I know," Ellie confirms, "but can it be over breakfast? I'm starving."
"Of course," Ruby laughs.
They both get out of bed and dress in clean underwear and Ruby's t-shirts that she wears around the house. They don't even need to speak; Ruby hands over the clothes and Ellie puts them on. They walk together to the kitchen, Ruby in front, Ellie right behind her, breathing in her scent as if she doesn't know it by heart. When they enter the room, Ruby goes straight to the refrigerator while Ellie takes care of making coffee for both of them. They move around the kitchen in complete synchronization, as they've done thousands of times, except on this occasion, when they cross paths while setting things on the table, Ellie kisses Ruby's shoulder and continues with her task.
