Her eyes widened slightly, like she’d said more than she intended to.She stood up, her hands fisted at her sides.I stood up too, facing her.Her eyes were tumultuous, and in that instant, I knew exactly what she was upset about.I couldn’t say why, but I just knew.I felt a wave of tenderness for her, maybe because she’d obviously been raised to see emotions as weakness.
“There’s nothing wrong with being attracted to me,” I said softly.“I feel the same way, you know.”
“I’m not attracted to you,” she denied.
“Really?Then why were you staring at my breasts earlier?”
Her eyes dropped to my chest then popped back up, a slight flush crossing her cheekbones.“I was not.”
“Whatever you say,” I smirked.
She took an aggressive step forward, and I instinctively took a step back.Not that I thought she was going to hurt me or anything.No, my retreat was more about giving her time, because I knew exactly how I felt.I wanted her.I’d wanted her from the first moment I saw her, but I thought she wasn’t interested.
Now I knew better.We’d been roommates for only twenty-four hours, but somehow a connection had already formed between us.One I couldn’t deny, even if she could.Maybe it had always been there, and we just needed to spend some time together to make it strengthen.
All I knew was that I was more attracted to Yvonne than I’d ever been to anyone else in my life, and I wanted to explore what that meant.
She took another step forward, her chest heaving, and I felt my back press against the wall.This room really was microscopic.
One of her hands came up to cup my cheek and I relaxed against her palm, waiting for her to make her next move.She stepped closer, until maybe an inch of space separated us, and moved her face close to mine, close enough that I could smell the salad dressing on her breath.
Time passed while we stared at each other.It could have been a minute or a year, I had no idea.
“Tell me to back off,” she whispered.
“No.”
She gave me another few seconds to push her away, and when I didn’t, her lips crashed against mine.
Yvonne
Ihadn’tplannedonkissingToni, but somehow this seemed inevitable.As soon as I found out that we’d been assigned to be roommates some part of me knew this would happen.I didn’t know if Toni felt this same crazy attraction for me that I felt for her, but after twenty-four hours together, it was clear that this thing, whatever it was, wasn’t one-sided.
The air between us seemed electrified.Knowing she’d been sleeping on the bunk beneath me last night, I’d been tempted to slide my hands between my thighs and get myself off, just to relieve the pressure.
And then this afternoon, after practice, I’d glanced over, innocently I swear, just as she stepped out of the shower.I’d gotten a glimpse of her body, a combination of tight and soft, with those pendulous breasts and that enticing little patch of hair between her thighs and I’d nearly dropped to my knees and begged her to let me lick her clean.
That’s why I’d taken my lunch to go.The explosive attraction coupled with the way she seemed to seeme, understand me, sense what I was thinking, it was too much to deal with.My plan was to take some time away from her to rebuild my defenses.Develop a plan to spend as little time as possible with her while were involuntary roommates.
The whole plan fell apart when she came back, calling me out on my shit in a way that felt like maybe she cared about me, just a little.It made her even more attractive.I couldn’t resist stalking towards her, getting closer.Judging by the look on her face, she didn’t mind it at all.
Our lips crashed together, and we both stilled for a few seconds.Then Toni sighed, and I slipped my tongue between her lips, exploring her mouth, and the kiss turned hot.Desperate.
She tasted delicious.Minty, like she’d stopped to brush her teeth on the way back from lunch.I pressed against her, hands gripping her shoulders as our tongues tangled, both of us fighting for control.
I loved it.My heart was pounding frantically, and I could hear a buzzing noise in my ears.It was my brain turning off, I realized.With all my focus on Toni, everything else seemed to fade away.It was the damnedest thing, something that hadn’t happened with any of the other women I’d kissed – or the one guy I’d dated in high school before I came out.
We broke apart to take a breath, and Toni spun us around until I was the one pressed against the door.She ground her hips against mine, nipping at my lower lip until I opened for her.She dominated my mouth, taking control in a way that should have scared me.I always was the one in control when I was with a woman, but with Toni, I was glad to submit, at least a little.
I’d have to analyze that little factoid later.Right now, I couldn’t focus on anything except for this kiss.I ran my hands down her back, then gripped the muscled globes of her ass, pulling her even closer to me.We were already plastered against each other, but still it wasn’t enough.
I couldn’t say how long we kissed, but by the time we pulled apart, it seemed like hours had passed.My lips were tingling and when I touched them with my fingers, they were swollen.My nipples were pressing almost painfully against the stiff fabric of my sports bra, and when I shifted, I realized that my panties were damp from my arousal.
Judging by the look on Toni’s face, she wasn’t faring much better.I glanced down, noting the way her nipples protruded through her shirt, then forced myself to step away before I ripped that shirt off her and sucked on her nipples until she begged me to stop.
Were her nipples sensitive?I wondered.Was she the kind of woman who screamed when she came, or was she more of a silent scream kind of girl?I was dying to find out, but with a few inches of distance between us, common sense was beginning to return.
The International Games.We were being paid to represent the U.S., not make out against the wall.
