We lay there, both a bit surprised and still very aroused. I looked at her: eyes wide with arousal, pupils dilated, but still brilliant green as she gasped through her orgasm. She pulled my face down to hers and devoured my lips hungrily as she took a long moment to finish her blissful convulsions… Then she quickly rolled me onto my back and kissed her way down my body, moving between my legs, opening and lifting them, so her mouth could taste me.

She was not as confident or proficient with her lips and tongue as she’d been with her hands, but that didn’t make the sensations any less thrilling. Especially once she began using her fingers as well. Two slender fingers slid inside me and curled as her lips sucked on my clitoris, tongue teasing. The combined pressure from within and without was too much, and I let out an involuntary series of moans as I clenched around her fingers. Yet she didn’t stop, didn’t let up, and I found my pleasure only mounting. I was surprised to find my hands in her hair, gripping and pressing her closer as my hips rocked and rose. My eyes slid shut with tears of bliss on my cheeks, my breath came in gasps and heaves. I found myself whispering “yes” repeatedly. Until finally she stopped with her lips on my folds and moved up again, her mouth finding my ever-so-sensitive-breasts. And feeling the hard suction and press of her teeth on my nipples, as her fingers raged between my legs, I cried out with a final release so powerful it felt like my whole body rose from the bed.

I was breathless and trembling with bliss as she settled down beside me. Her lips teased up my neck to nibble on an ear as she breathed, “I have always wondered… Now I know.”

And I knew.

Have you ever been with a woman? I asked Auwei.As a woman?

This was a first for me too, she said and I felt her own trembling passion.Thank Sparrow for me. This I shall not soon forget.

“Auwei… wants me to… thank you.”

“And you?” she asked tentatively.

“I thank you too,” I said, turning to her, kissing those soft lips once again. I felt compelled to do more, however. She’d brought me to the heights of desire, and I sensed that had been truly joyous for her, but she deserved more. I wasn’t sure I’d be as certain in my work but I began to kiss my way down her body.

Yet she stopped me. A hand on my chin moving my head up to look at her. “Legs, no. you don’t have to. I am sated.”

“And if I want to?”

I saw her lips press tight. A tear fell from her one eye as her breathing grew heavy. She swallowed hard. “Do you? Truly?”

Did I?

In truth I wasn’t certain whether I wished to kiss her as intimately as she’d done with me. But I wanted to do more. “I will do what I feel,” I said, not really knowing if that made sense.

Yet she nodded and let me go. I saw her eyes squeeze shut as she pushed her head back into the pillows, her hands moving to her breasts, stroking the taught nipples and raised areolae.

I kissed over her stomach, seeing it flex and tense, then down to her hips. There I stopped for the awkward moment of moving between her legs. She opened her thighs, pressing them to the sides as I slid my hands under her taut buttocks to lift her a little. I was curious…

I pressed my lips to her folds as if they were her lips, in a long and lingering kiss, my tongue exploring her, before lifting away. I saw the tense trembling of her body laid before me and returned to run my tongue over the taut nub of her clitoris. She gasped and shuddered.

I moved my lips to the inside of her thigh as I moved my fingers over and within her. I felt her tense convulsions, heard her gasps and moans as I piqued her pleasure once again. But as she’d done with me, I did not stop, I wouldn’t, not yet.

I kissed my way back up, stopping at her soft breasts for a bit before returning to her lips as my fingers played in her folds. Her thighs pressed tight around my hand, her hips moving, her body trembling. When my lips touched hers, both her hands came up to my head, curling in my hair, drawing me breathlessly closer. Our mouths merged, tongues tangled, until she tilted her head back and her body tensed once again as open-mouthed, wide-eyed bliss surged through her. I felt her close around my fingers, tight and intense, her thighs doing the same on my wrist as she gasped and cried out. I kissed her breasts as she rode the wave of this orgasm to its end.

After that, we lay in each other’s arms for a long time. With those large green eyes staring up at the canopy of my bed she shook her head slowly. “I can’t believe…” She let out a shuddering: “Ohhhhh.” Then she rolled her head to look at me, our noses brushing. “You are amazing,” she whispered, then bit her lip, those deep green eyes searching mine. “I meant to comfortyou—”

“And you did, thank you, Sparrow.”

“Legs, please, let me finish. What you’ve done for me. I… I know that this may have been all you… you needed from me. This one moment of comfort, and if that’s it, then I will be forever grateful for it.” She smiled shyly. “Amber had offered, but… I’d never been certain this was what I wanted, to be with… another woman. I always felt it was, but I was never sure. And Amber always seemed… too much, if that makes sense?”

It did.

“But with you, I felt… safe. Now I know: this is what I want. And for that I thank you, from the deepest places in my heart.” She kissed me lightly, then licked her lips. “You have given me a precious gift, and if this is all you wish to give, I’ll… I’ll understand. I’m glad I could bring you some comfort when you needed it.”

I placed a hand on her cheek as I smiled. “And I thank you, Sparrow. I… I will admit, I was uncertain of this, but… now…” How did I feel? This had been an amazing experience; soft and caring, yet intense. Would I want more? I couldn’t see any reason why not. Did that change my desire for men? No… it didn’t. Apparently, I liked and wanted both men and women. I felt my heart open and knew this is what I had wanted, themoreI had been looking for… at least in part. “I think I do want more; I love you dearly, Sparrow.”

She blushed, a deep and beautiful rose hue upon her cheeks.

But what about Silence.

This hadn’t felt like a betrayal of my love for him. I’m not sure I could say why, but I just knew in my soul that he’d understand this… experiment to explore deeper intimacy with a dear friend. It is exactly what he and I had done. Yet, to go further without him knowing… that felt wrong. I knew I could love more than just one person, and accept them all, but I knew everyone involved would need to accept such an amalgamated relationship.

Exactly, Auwei said.Though I have never been a part of one, group relationships are accepted in Elista. And from what I hear, as long as everyone knows what’s going on and agrees to it, such groups can be quite fulfilling.

That reminded me of something Ant had said about Jack. He’d warned Silence about Jack, saying:…he goes for all sorts. Which brought to mind the image of Jack and Silence and Ant all naked and kissing and…
