| A Different Girlfriend, Chapter 4 When Karen finally went back downstairs it was on very unsteady legs. Emma had certainly meant it when she said she'd return the pleasure Karen had given her. In Karen's opinion she'd been paid back many times over. Emma hadn't relented in her attentions until Karen had been a quivering wet mess on the shower floor. She hadn't even known she could have multiple orgasms like that but Emma had just kept them coming until she almost couldn't breath. Now she re-entered the kitchen a bit red faced and flushed all over. She was still feeling some of the after effects. She knew Emma could feel her pleasure because she followed behind her now smiling happily while sending feelings of pride and love through the bond link. She deserved that pride after what she'd done. Apparently a fast learner, she'd taken what Karen had done on her and went much further. "That was quite a long shower. What took you so long?" Donna asked smirking from where she stood cleaning off the counter from breakfast. "Hehe, it was just nice that's all," Karen said trying to play things off. Donna had seemed cool with everything that had gone on so far but she still didn't want to come right out and say she was upstairs having sex with her daughter. "Did Emma help you out? She was gone for a while too." Donna said without changing her expression. "Yeah, she was a great help," Karen said without thinking. "Hmmm," Donna said, now giving the two girls a considering look. Karen tried to look innocent but Emma wasn't even trying to hide her happy giddiness. Suddenly Donna nodded and sighed. "Yes, definitely soundproofing. It's only the first day and your already this frisky with each other. If this keeps up I'm going to be one frustrated and lonely woman at night. Maybe I should find myself a girlfriend too since you two seem to be so nice together." Karen blushed at having been caught. Emma however wasn't embarrassed at all. "Sorry Mom, I'm the one that got Karen all worked up earlier. She just wanted to show some appreciation." Karen goggled for a moment. She still wasn't used to the apparent openness of this family. The only one at home she talked like this with was her sister Michele and she thought it was natural for close sisters to tease each other. This was another level above that. Both Emma and Donna spoke with an open frankness that showed an enormous amount of comfort between them. Now that it looked like she was going to be a part of this family she thought she should stop being so hesitant in front of Donna. She managed it a little earlier. "Yeah, sorry about that, it's not every day I have someone jump into my lap like that." She said trying to imitate their lightness of the subject. "So you were the instigator again?" Donna laughed. "Well I guess you could only keep your hands off Emma for so long. If you think that little thing got you worked up you should see what happens if I separate you two for a week or so." Karen felt an instinctive horror for the idea of not being near Emma for that long and from the bond she felt absolute terror coming from the shorter girl. Without even thinking about it she took Emma into her arms trying to comfort her with her physical presence. "Please don't do that Mom!" Emma cried from Karen's chest were she had snuggled her face between the big breasts. "Sorry, sorry," Donna said in quick apology. "It's been a while since I was linked myself so I forgot what that subject can do. Please calm down Emma, I'm not gonna separate you two. All I was trying to say is when you reunite after such a thing it has some rather interesting effects." "Like what?" Karen said absently petting a mollified Emma's hair who kept her place against Karen for an entirely different reason now. "Like going at each other like rabbits, regardless of who is around you and where you are. Physical contact is important to linked people and those like us in general and such separation creates a huge desire for that contact that sometime overrides common sense." "I know all about the physical contact stuff." Karen said barking a laugh. "Even at school before now Emma was always trying to touch me somehow. I certainly didn't object to it." "Emma told me about that. She was afraid she'd turn you off her some how with all her smothering, but nope, you are." "I couldn't help it." Emma said happily with the side of her face against Karen's firm left breast while she looked at her mother. "Karen just feels really good, even when it's just touching her arm." "Heh, thanks I think." Karen said looking down. "I guess that's nice to know." "See what I mean?" Donna continued "You should have heard her talk about you the last two weeks. I was worried about her making friends at her new school, but no, she comes home excited about just one girl she met. I'm a bit angry with myself for not seeing it before but when I saw her next to you when you left the school building last night I knew she'd chosen you. The only person she'd usually hug like that is me. I'm surprised no one else at school has commented on it." "Well our friend Amber did but she's the only one who knows I like girls. So she kinda knew that I liked what Emma was doing. I don't know how Liz and Ashley, two of out other friends, haven't noticed though." "She knows?" Emma asked curiosly. "Yeah, in fact she told me to take things slowly and to behave myself with you," Karen laughed. "I guess I already tossed that out the window." "Well," Donna said. "The others will definitely figure things out if you act like you are now." Karen suddenly realized she'd moved her other free hand downward to grab Emma's ass under the skirt. She also realized that in her mind there was and almost cat-like purring feeling coming from the girl. Trying to be nonchalant about it she slowly moved her hand to Emma's' hip on the outside of the girl's clothing. "Emma, quit getting Karen all riled up again. And you young lady," she said pointing at Karen. "I know she's making it hard but please behave yourself outside of this house, you are minor still. This is fine here but considering what you just said it will be hard to conceal the fact you're a couple." "Emma pulled away reluctantly and Karen felt concern from her. "We can't tell anybody?" She asked. "Actually we can," which got both peoples attention. "Before I was just reluctant to let anyone know because of what happened to me a few years ago at a different school. But I decided after talking to Amber that if I really liked Emma it would be unfair to her to hide such a relationship. I don't want to shout it from the rooftops, but I don't mind if people at school know." "Well, never mind that then" Donna replied cheerfully. "I was gonna suggest at least telling your friends but it seems that suggestion would have been unnecessary." "So I can tell people your all mine?" Emma asked enthusiastically. . "Hehe, yeah, I guess," Karen chuckled feeling the infectious cheerfulness. "Let's start small with Amber, Liz and Ashley first. They're our friends so they deserve to know before the general school populous." "Sure, sure, I kinda can't wait till Monday now." "Do you mid if I tell my mother," Donna asked "Sure, let her know you successfully carried on that tradition you spoke of. " Karen agreed jokingly. "I wanna meet your mother some day." "I dunno," Emma said. "If you think me and Mom are bad together with our jokes and teasing, her and Granna are much worse. " "That's just makes me more interested. Oh, that reminds me; I promised my sister I'd introduce you to her." "You have a sister?" Donna and Emma asked almost most together. Then Emma by herself continued. "Older or younger?" "Three years older," Karen answered. "She's goes to college in the area but still lives at home with us. She knows pretty much everything about me and when I told her about Emma she made me promise to introduce her." "We'll I'll gladly meet her then," Emma said firmly. Karen chuckled since she could feel the girl's shyness which belied her current tone. "Don't worry about her. Michele's nice, probably a nicer person than me actually." "You'll get to meet her soon enough if she's at home today," Donna told Emma, and then looked to Karen. "I promised to your parents over the phone last night to have you home by four because your father invited us to dinner so he could meet his daughter's new friend and her parent, meaning myself." That was typical of her father; he liked to play the host. Whenever Amber had come over he was always prepared with snacks and such. He was also a bit old fashioned in that he liked befriend the parents of his children's' friends. No doubt he planned to impress Donna with his grilling skills while Mom if she was home from work, socialized. She'd apparently been a partier when she was younger and still retained a desire to entertain large groups. Donna was simply a new opportunity for them. She was musing on what her father might have planned when it struck. "Holy Shit! My parents!" she gasped out. "Language!" Donna admonished. "Sorry" "Now what about your parents?" "I have no idea how they'll react if I tell them I'm a lesbian and Emma is my girlfriend. My sister says my mom might be amenable to it but my dad is really old fashioned and conservative. He doesn't go to church now but he was raised Lutheran." "Hmm that is kind of a pickle." Donna said thinking things over. "We could just let them hear rumors about us from school people and see how they react to it." Emma suggested. "It's hard to say since I haven't met them but some parent's might get angry at that simply because their child hid something from them." Donna mused aloud. "I don't think they're like that." Karen said after thinking it over. "They've always let me and Michele have our privacy as long as we didn't do anything really wrong." "What about starting small then," Emma responded. "Like with the carnival next weekend." "The carnival?" Every year at the start of the first school term the local Board of Education had a huge fundraising carnival event. It earned a sizable addition to the funds local and state tax money provided. It was popular the last few years for students to invite someone as their date when they went and afterwards there was a weeks worth of gossip over who invited who. It was teenage foolishness but everyone in the area participated in it anyway. "Yeah," Emma said sounding excited. "Just tell your parents I asked you to go as my date for the event, which will be entirely true since I'm asking you now." "I'd love to go," Karen said, ignoring that little voice reminding her of her earlier thought of teenage foolishness. "That might be a good idea; it would at least let me gauge their reactions a little." "Well now that you girls have something like a plan why don't you go and do something fun while I finish cleaning up. I have to get some work done before we head out so I'll be in my office after this if you need anything." Following those instruction Emma led Karen into the TV room they gone in on the house tour the night before. Emma, it turned out, was and avid gamer and she immediately went to a small cabinet and tossed a 360 controller at her. Over the next several hours Karen found herself quite bemused at her girlfriend's skill at almost any game she touched. Emma was also clearly overjoyed at having a new opponent to beat up on. Karen had noticed it a little during practices, but now a definite competitive streak reared its head. They must have chewed through the hours playing around since Donna stuck her head in the room and announced that it was time to leave. Amazed Karen stared at a clock display on the stereo attached to the TV and saw she was right, she'd spent the whole afternoon so far laughing and getting pummeled by Emma. It was a bit disappointing to cut it short. Emma may be a bit shy and deferential around people normally but get her worked up like this and she goes all out. Karen chalked it up as one more thing she liked about the girl. Still laughing and joking over some of Karen's blunders in her attempts to beat Emma in at least one game, they climbed back into the black sedan. Emma and Karen both sat in the back so they could keep up their jovial conversation as they drove back into town. Donna just smiled silently at Karen's ability to put up with Emma when she really got into her hobby. As they got close to her place they had to stop so Karen could lean over the middle gap and give Donna directions to help her get there more smoothly. When they turned onto her street Karen pointed out her house, a typical subdivision clone style home. The neighborhood had a couple dozen just like it. As they pulled into the driveway Karen noticed there were a bunch of other cars in the street in front of the place. "What's up?" Emma asked noticing Karen's frown and feeling her confusion. "That green Honda looks like the one Amber's dad owns, and those other two seem familiar too." Then it hit her and she groaned. "What?" Emma asked again. "Nothing really, it just seems that might dad has decided to really show off this time. He likes to make good friends with the parents of me and Michele's friends. So it seems that he's decided to make it a party for tonight and invited the other 3 and their parents to dinner too. It means Mom's home too since she'd kill dad if he threw such a thing without her home to talk to everyone." "So Amber, Liz and Ashley are here too? It sounds kinda fun to me." Emma said unbuckling herself and exiting the car. "I agree," Donna said while also getting out. "It means I get to meet everyone at once and a dinner party is always good." "Well, I hope you like grilled food then cus that's dad's "specialty", these days," Karen said leading them up the front walk to the front door. "No doubt he's got a full spread on the table out back full of food already." Karen let them all in through the front door and then led them down the first floor hall to the back of the house. "Where's your room?" Emma asked as she followed. "Upstairs, last door on the right side," said a voice coming from behind and above them. Turning around they all saw a tall girl with long blonde hair descending the staircase they'd just past by. "Michele!" Karen said happily, and then hugged the girl. "Ooof," Michele said as the air was hugged out of her lungs. "Are these them Karen?" "Yeah!" Karen said enthusiastically. Turning she gestured. "This is Emma and her mother, Donna." Emma went up to them and hugged Karen's arm against her shyly smiling at the older girl. "Hi, I'm Emma it nice yah." "I guess that makes me the mother" Donna said with mock wryness. "Nice to meet you too Michele. Michele just nodded and then looked at her sister with Emma. "So this is the girlfriend huh?" "Huh, you know already?" Emma asked curiously. "How could I not know with you holding my sister like that and her with her hand on your ass?" Michele laughed, and then giggled uproariously at their reddening faces. "Oh man, you two are so very obvious right now." Karen removed her straying hand from were she had let it wander. "Is everyone out back then?" she said trying to save some face. "Yeah, I guess you've already seen that dad decided this was a good opportunity to throw a dinner party. He's been dieing to have one for weeks and as soon as he was off the phone with Donna here last night he phoned all the other parents and set things up." "Ehh, I was right then, he is trying to show off." Karen said sounding exasperated. "I guess we should head out back and let him have his fun." Continuing on they exited through the back patio door into the spacious back yard. There standing around the smallish in-ground pool was a group of adult all talking to each other. Actually there were two distinct groups the mothers and the fathers. Sometime Karen thought adults were just like high school kids sometimes when they separated out into their friends like this. Around a smaller table Karen saw their other friends chatting with plates of munchy type food in front of them. Karen saw that their entrance was immediately noticed by both groups of parents so she led Emma and her mom over, Michele waved off as she moved to join Amber and the others. Lucky, Emma thought, that she could escape parental embarrassment so easily. "Is this your new friend Karen?" her father asked when they drew close to his place near the grill. "Yeah, Dad, this is Emma and her mother, Donna. Emma, Donna, this is my dad Richard." "Nice you meet you in person," Donna said smiling. "Thanks for the dinner invitation." "Hah, no doubt my daughter has been warning you about me" "Not much, just that you liked dinner parties." Her father just laughed "Hi, I'm Emma Mr. Mayes." Emma said moving to shake his hand which Karen saw seemed to impress her father a little. "Nice to meet you Emma, you seem like a polite girl. You're welcome anytime here since you're a friend of Karen's, you and your mother both. The other fathers then moved to introduce themselves once Karen's had finished. Then she saw her mother lead the women over. "Karen dear, is this must be Emma right? It's nice to meet you young lady." Karen smiled at Emma's surprised and nonplussed reaction at her mother's rather forceful introduction. Her mom was the head nurse at a clinic and ran it like a general runs an army. She just had that commanding voice. She was used to the blunt, forward personality her mother exuded like a force. "That must make you her mother Donna. Why don't you join us?" "That's sound nice. Emma go ahead with Karen and join the other girls." Happy to be dismissed Karen led Emma over to the table of their waiting friends. "Hey guys, you all got roped in on this too?" She said when they were close enough. "Yeah, our dads always look forward to your dad's dinner parties and such." Liz said before continuing in a false wistful voice. "If only we children weren't dragged along to our parent's little social gatherings." "Hmm, and who was it that was all overjoyed about the food earlier?" Ashley asked innocently. "Hey I'm never gonna argue with good free food, even when it's at such a cost." Liz retorted. Karen sat herself next to Amber and Emma sat on her other side. Karen immediately laced her fingers with Emma's. Amber noticed this and raised a silent eyebrow. Karen simply smiled and nodded. Amber smiled back in understanding. They spent a good while sitting around the table just chatting things up. They were teenage girls so their conversation ran all over the place while Michele being older than the others tried to interject with her supposed sagely wisdom at times. The girls of coarse allowed none of that since they'd known her as long as they'd known Emma. Eventually they all agreed to go indoors and leave the parents to themselves. Michele suggested her room since it was the larger bedroom upstairs and out of the way of nosy parents. Emma looked and felt disappointed. "So eager to get me in my room?" Karen joked with her as they climbed the stairs behind the others. "Well, yeah. You've already seen mine." Emma blushed and Karen felt the desire to have her alone. "I think we should tell the others since were all here." She said trying to change the subject. "Hmm, sounds like a reasonable idea, we may as well get it out in the open. I don't want to hide it from my friends." Karen said. "How about we use Amber, she's good at breaking things to people." As they were all filing into Michele's room Karen suddenly grabbed Emma's arm. "I'm gonna show Emma my room real quick OK?" she said to the other. "Sure, just come right back." Michele said with a suggestive smile. When every turned back into the room Karen caught Amber's eye and made a gesture which Amber nodded to. "Come on." She said pulling an unresisting Emma further down the hall. "But…what about" the girl tried to protest unconvincingly. "Haha, no complaints, I'm gonna show you my room like you wanted." Karen opened her door and led her in. "It's not much but this is mine" she said as they entered. The room wasn't much; just a bed, dresser, closet, bookshelf and computer desk with a currently blank monitor on it. While it was a little sparse Karen liked it and found it comfortable. She was happy when she felt Emma's agreement flow to her. Emma moved in to the room and began looking about. Karen simply watched smiling letting herself feel things through Emma. Though it should still be odd to her she already found herself using the link instinctually. Like now for example, she was adding automatically what her eyes saw on Emma's face to the pleased feeling coming from the girl to make one whole impression of the girl's reaction. Emma completed the circuit and plopped down on the bed. With a pleased sigh she leaned over and lay down and snuggled her face into Karen's pillow. Chuckling Karen sat right next to Emma with her legs toughing the other girl's. "Are you sniffing my pillow?" Emma giggled, most of the sound muffled by pillow. "Mmmm, maybe." Karen felt the slight aroused glow that told the truth of the statement. She smiled and laid herself behind Emma spooning her body. He rolled Emma a bit onto her back and then reached up, lightly held the smaller girl's chin and turned it to her. Happy to see the fire increase she leaned in and kissed Emma softly. She continued to kiss, trading tongues now, and slid her hand slowly downward between the small mounds and to the hem of Emma shirt. She then slipped her hand underneath and began to slowly and lightly circle with her finger tips on the girls stomach. She felt Emma's arousal feeding back to herself and she knew without even looking that she already had the girl soaked. She moved her other hand under Emma and held onto one cheek of that cute butt. She really, really liked Emma's butt, she didn't know why bet she liked holding and touching Emma there even when they weren't in a situation like this. She began to kiss against that sensitive spot by Emma's ear when a cough came from the door. Feeling both embarrassed and frustrated at the same time she looked up to see Amber standing in the door with a bemused expression her face. "Sorry to interrupt your fun, but you did ask for me didn't you?" she asked crossing her arms in feigned impatience. Sitting up feeling a big flustered she looked down into Emma's eyes. She felt the lingering arousal and disappointment radiating strongly to her. She decided she make it up to Emma later. As soon as she had the thought she felt Emma's disappointment vanish entirely and transform into that loving glow Karen knew was just for her. Unexpectedly Emma sat up quickly grabbed Karen by the head, kissed her again, and then settled herself facing outward on her lap leaning back into the embrace Karen automatically drew her into. Amber coughed again, twice this time. "Sorry." Karen said smiling a bit ruefully. "Got a bit carried away." "Are you sure you two have only been going out for a day?" Amber asked rolling her eyes. "You two looked like quite nice together there and you look kinda cute like that now, but I'm healthy teenage girl myself. I don't need that image of you two getting me all worked up." "Haha," Emma laughed. "My mom said almost the same thing." "Lord! Your mom already caught you like this?" "Uh-huh, she was cool with it." Emma responded simply. "Well I don't know about your mom, but I'd like to be able to sleep peacefully tonight." Amber told her while grinning before looking back up to Karen who had absently moved a hand to cup one of Emma's breasts and casually rub her thumb over the nipple. "Will you please stop that and tell me already." Karen did stop which drew a small moan of loss from her lap. "We want to you to help break it to the others." "I told you before that I think they'll be cool with it, but if you want to go this route I'm willing to help. " "Your good at keeping things light hearted and positive, I just want that there just in case." "Alright then, I've already got a pretty good way to start it up." Karen looked down and felt the approval without it being said. "Alright, let's head back then." After Emma dismounted, Karen got up and felt something different through the bond. She wondered if this was what Donna had meant by the link maturing. At first she had just felt basic emotions, anger, sadness, fear, happiness. Now though she realized she was feeling whole ideas and impressions. It wasn't direct mind reading; she couldn't hear Emma speaking in her head. Instead it was something else. Like right now. She knew that Emma had decided that her lap was now her favorite place to sit and intended to be there more often. Karen didn't read it from the girl but she knew all that anyway. Thinking on this while Emma held her hand they went back to Michele's room. Everyone was seated around the room chatting about some movie, so she, Emma, and Amber moved to find places around the floor. Karen sat next to Michele's bed and leaned her back against it. Emma immediately sat next to her then lay down on her side with her head in Karen's lap sighing contentedly. Amber sat across from them against the far wall. "Her tour tire you out that much Emma?" Liz joked from her place in Michele's computer chair. "They weren't gone for that long, what could they have done that was that tiring?" Ashley barked with a laugh of her own. Karen and Emma blushed at the exact same time. The talk about the movie resumed, this time with Karen and Emma adding their input. They talked and talked about various things until Karen had just about forgot entirely about her request of Amber when during a conversation about general school gossip Amber made her move. "Hey, did you guys hear the new couple? I bet you can't guess who finally got a girlfriend." Liz and Ashley immediately took the bait and launched into wild speculation about real and imagined semi-couples and other guys in school. Some of their suggestions were of coarse ridiculous. Finally Liz gave up in exasperation. "Just tell us already. Don't keep it to yourself; I know you get all the enjoyment from telling the news, not just hoarding it away." "You guys weren't even close." Amber laughed. "But your guesses were entertaining. The person I'm obviously talking about is Karen." "What?!" Liz said in startled. Ashley though had missed something. She looked at Karen and said. "Who is he?" "I said girlfriend, I didn't say anything about a boyfriend did I?" Amber asked in exasperation. Ashley cocked heard head for a moment. "Girlfriend," she muttered musingly Liz though broke into a grin. "So that's why you never agreed to any of those guys last year." She paused for a moment and her smile grew bigger than Karen had thought possible. "Ooh, Ooh, I bet I know who it is." "What? You do?" Ashley asked sounding confused. "But Amber just told us about it now. How can you possibly know if you didn't even know Karen liked girls till now?" Karen sat there trying not to smile and knew Amber was struggling not to do the same. She was overjoyed that her faith in her friends was true. They hadn't freaked out at all. They expressed surprise, which was natural, but nothing negative. Instead they were just as curious as they'd be with anyone who announced they had a new boyfriend. "It's really obvious who it has to be," Liz declared superiorly. "Think about it for a moment. There's only one girl who's been around our Karen like that." Trying to help out a bit Karen looked down at Emma and tried to used the link to send an impression like Emma had given her unconsciously a moment ago. It must have worked since she felt the happiness flare in the girl who squirmed a bit then sat up. She then slid over and sat between Karen's outstretched legs and then leaned back into Karen, who like earlier in the bed, wrapped her arms around her. This time she kept her hands from straying, mostly. Ashley and Liz, engrossed in their argument, didn't notice the seating change at first. Then Liz looked at them out of the corner of her eye and smirked. She then flipped her hand out in a casual gesture in their direction as she reiterated the obviousness of who Karen's girlfriend was. Karen saw Ashley look at them and then back at Liz to continue her argument. "Just tell me who you think…" She cut off then looked back again at them sharply. "Well…damn." She said a first then sighed dramatically big and looked over again at Liz. "Ok, I'm an idiot. I've no idea how I didn't remember that." Everyone laughed for at that, even Michele who'd just been watching from her seat on the bed. "Probably because we were already used to dismissing them being like that," Liz said, trying to let Ashley save some face. "We've seen them together like this at lunch for two weeks and didn't think anything of it." "Hmmm, I suppose," Ashley said thinking the idea over. After dismissing it as pointless worry she looked now, curiosity reignited, at Karen and Emma. "So how long?" "If you mean officially, then last night was the beginning." Emma answered. Liz had different targets. "How long have you known Amber? And I know you've known too Michele." "Well I knew the first day last Monday." Amber answered, very pleased with herself. "I've known since last year that Karen liked girls. She never told me anything but I knew. Then Monday I saw how she was acting weird and interpreted it correctly. When I kinda confronted her about it she admitted she was interested in Emma." "She told me after she got home that day," Michele said simply. "Well I feel all left out." Liz replied sounding a bit out. "Karen was jus nervous about how you'd react to her liking girls is all it was. I think she had a bad experience somewhere and didn't want to repeat it." Karen just nodded to the looks she got from Liz and Ashley. "Well…Now there are no worries," Ashley said decisively. "We're your friends regardless of who you like." Besides," Liz went to add. "You two do look cute together like that. I know you just said it was only official yesterday but you do look very natural together like that." Karen glowed in the compliment and felt the same from Emma. "If you think they look comfortable with each other now you should have seen them in Karen's room earlier." Amber said with a playful grin. "Karen there was getting very, very comfortable with Emma till I interrupted." Karen sputtered incredulously till she felt Emma laughing with the others. Then she just shyly ducked her head in embarrassment. "Good lord Karen, wasn't that enough earlier in front of Emma's mom?" Michele said supplying more ammunition to the laughter. 'Huh? Mom doesn't mind," Emma said trying to save Karen. "She said it was fine as long as I don't get Karen worked up too much in front of her and get out of hand." "Wow," Liz laughed in surprise. "That's kinda cool of her; but it is interesting that Karen is noted as the person to keep under control." "See!" Amber laughed. "It's the well behaved ones you have to be careful of." "I'm happy for you both," Ashley said more calmly. "My boyfriend will be a bit disappointed though. He's always thought my friends should have boyfriends for him to hang out with." "Sorry to disappoint him." Karen said good naturedly. "There's still hope with the other two though." "Speaking of disappointments," Amber began. "There's gonna be a lot of disappointed boys at school now Karen. All those guys who've been secretly hoping you'd relent and go out with one of them will have a very sad day." "Tough," Emma said speaking in a disapproving huff. "She's all mine now." Karen squeezed her once in appreciation. "Like she said, tough cookies." Everyone laughed at that. "I take it this means we can tell other people at school?" Liz asked. "Since you know I can't keep happy secrets to myself. They always bubble out." "Yeah, you can," Karen said trying to sound normal. Emma of coarse felt that lie and tried to send encouragement. "What happened that makes you so fearful that everyone's gonna hate you now?" Ashley asked seeing through Karen. "You know I used to live in Nebraska right?" There were nods of agreement. "Well I knew I liked girls long ago back in middle school. One day though I finally decided to act on one of my crushes and approach a girl. She was repulsed by me. The whole school knew by the end of the week. I was practically ecstatic when dad said we were moving here." "I remember all of that," Michele said. "I so wanted to punch that stupid girl. But things have turned out pretty well though. Now you have Emma there in your arms and all your friends are happy for you." There were noises of agreement from everyone. Then a voice called up from downstairs. "Ugh, that's gotta be my dad." Liz said standing up, then stretching for a moment. "Guess I have to go. I'll see you all Monday." A chorus of good-byes followed her out of the room. "Guess that means the parents have gotten tired of their impromptu party," Amber said. "My dad's probably next. He gets all antsy when people start leaving. He somehow thinks he's being rude by sticking around." "I'll head down too; I gotta get all the good-daughter points I can get and stock up just in case." Everyone knew about Ashley's plan to use her good behavior as a counter argument when her parents found out about her boyfriend eventually. After more farewells it was just Michele, Karen and Emma still in the room. "I think I'll go help clean up." Michele said. Then it was just the two of them so they went back to Karen's room where she led Emma back to her bed. Karen gently pushed Emma onto her back then climbed on top of her and looked down into her face. "I glad I have such a thoughtful sister" she said. Emma smiled, "She was giving us alone time?" "Yep, she knew we got interrupted earlier. Now I can get back to it." She slid one hand over Emma, squeezing a breast gently then sliding it down to the skirt and drew it up with help from Emma who lifted her hips obligingly. She bent down and found the place she'd left off earlier and began kissing against Emma sensitive spot. Her hand covered Emma's very damp panties and began rubbing. Soon enough she had the petite girl gasping. Karen knew she couldn't strip Emma like she wanted or let her get to ruffled looking but she planned to separate from the girl on a high note. Once she had her really worked up Karen flipped herself around, pulled the crotch of Emma's panties aside and lie down. Getting right to it she inserted one, then two fingers into the already slick girl's pussy then began sucking on and licking her clit. As she worked she felt Emma's hands on her undoing the catch on her shorts and pulling them down a bit. Karen helped her by closing her legs for a moment so they could be drawn down enough for her to slip one leg out. That accomplished Emma began to return the attentions being done on her. Both girls writhed there on the bed, caught up in their desire to please the other. Suddenly Emma gave a great squeak and Karen felt her tighten on her fingers. Not minding that Emma had stopped her licking she intensified her own sucking and licking as the girl came hard. Careful not to break the hymen yet she pumped her fingers as fast as she could while sucking on the clit. Right behind the first was a second orgasm, this one greater than the first one. By the time she was done she counted a total of six orgasms when she withdrew her now soaked face. Despite her gasping state Emma resumed her own ministrations and then it was Karen's turn. She knew she got really dripping wet when she came and now with Emma underneath her she practically covered the girl's whole face immediately. She only came the once this time but it was intense enough to satisfy that fire she'd felt in her since she'd been interrupted earlier. Rolling off Emma Karen slipped her shorts back on and sat up. She saw Emma was now in a dozy state so she went and opened her bedroom window. It would be hard to explain to her parents if they came in why Emma had her skirt up, why her panties were soaked, and why the room reeked of sex. Once she had it opened all the way she sat back on the bed and gently fingered through the girls hair for a bit. Eventually Emma opened her eyes back up. "Hmm, that was really nice." She mumbled. "Yeah, yeah it was." Karen said smiling happily. "But we both need to wash our faces before we go downstairs." "I know, but I like smelling you." Emma said sitting up. Grinning impishly at an idea; she took her shorts back off again and then her followed with her panties. Emma just watched curiously and appreciatively. Karen grabbed a clean pair from her dresser then put those on before pulling her shorts back on yet again. She handed the pair of very, very soaked panties to Emma. "There you go. They should be soaked enough for you to smell me." Emma sniffed them, then grinned and folded the panties and put them in the back pocket of her skirt. She then followed Karen to the bathroom where both girls cleaned themselves up a bit making sure to use the scented soap on their faces. After Karen inspected them and saw that they were still a bit flushed and both of them had a tired look about them. She hoped they'd pass parental perusal. She knew Donna might notice since she knew what was going on, but hopefully her parents wouldn't think in that direction yet. They made their way downstairs eventually and found everyone else in the kitchen. "Hey girls" Donna said in greeting. "I hope you don't mind but I asked about the carnival thing next weekend. Your parents are Ok with it Karen." "Of coarse it is," Karen's father said. "And Michele has already volunteered to drive you." Karen saw her sister giver her a conspiratorial smile. She knew it wasn't for what her father had just said and felt herself turn red again. Emma noticed too and smiled in thanks. "Thanks dad," Karen said, happy that Donna had already taken care of things. She had forgotten about that plan with what had gone on upstairs. "No problem honey," smiled her dad. "Donna here has already said she'd pick you guys up when you get tired of it and let you spend the night again." :"Like I said, "Donna said to him. "I have plenty of room to spare at home and having Karen around is a joy." "Just make sure you behave yourselves," Karen's mom said in an admonishing tone. "It's fine to have fun and all when you're a teenager, but don't get too carried away. You usually make pretty good decisions and Emma seems like a nice girl so I'm not too worried about you, just giving the required parental warning." Karen blushed a little, thinking of how many times in the last 24 hours she's heard the words "behave yourself" or its like. "Don't worry Mom, I don't plan on doing anything stupid." "It's what you don't plan on that we worry about," her father said dryly. That got a small chuckle from everyone. "We need to get going too Emma," Donna said, there was clear apology on her face. Karen didn't want her to go yet and she knew Emma felt the same, but they both knew that to be impossible for now. Instead she walked with Emma back to her mom's car. When Emma was seated and Donna was climbing in Karen blocked the view with her own body and bent down to give Emma one last small kiss as a good-bye. She watched them leave then went back inside and up to her room. Since she had time left she killed the last few hours of the day getting her weekend homework completed. There wasn't much since it was only the second week but she had a writing assignment to be done so she focused on that. She didn't mind writing assignments; she could usually churn them out fairly quickly and almost always got an A on them. Finally, around 10:30, she finished everything and stood up from her desk to stretch her back. It had taken longer than she'd originally thought. The whole time her mind kept drifting to Emma; how she looked, how she felt, and how she smelled. All of it. With them being separated by more than a few rooms now she could feel the girl off to the west. She knew Emma was feeling the loss as well, it wasn't just a guess, she knew it. Sighing, she decided to take a long hot bath to relax herself. She went into the bathroom she shared with her sister and began to fill the tub with hot steamy water while she gathered soap and things. At last, when the tub was full she poured a little scented herbal soap in it, then grabbed her foam headrest and climbed in. The headrest was molded foam and was pleasantly comfortable to rest her shoulders and head against. It also kept a person from sliding under the water if they fell asleep. While not as nice as Emma's tub she did like one feature this one had. On the side were controls for heating elements in the tubs lining which kept the water at a desired temperature. So a hot bath could be as long as she wanted. She often liked to read here like this. She lay there for a while with her eyes closed, basking in the warm water. Mostly she just let her mind focus on the new addition in her head. It seemed larger and more pronounced now. She knew wherever Emma was she was feeling comfortable and sleepy but missing her at the same time. Karen felt whole complex ideas now from the link. It had been growing even faster since she and Emma separated and she thought there must be a correlation to that. She really just wanted to hold Emma some more. As her thoughts drifted in that direction her hands wandered over herself n the water. One hand began to gently squeeze and caress her right breast. The other went further and curled to cup the hairless place between her legs. With her mind practically filling with the link she quietly pleasured herself. Her hand moved and caressed, her fingers flicked and slid. Eventually as her pleasure grew she realized she felt a mirror of herself in her mind. She knew without any doubt Emma was doing the same to herself. Though separated by miles they still rose together almost as one. As her own body began to shake with the strain of holding her self off she felt the fire burning in her mind. Finally, at long last, she plunged two her fingers into herself and that wave she'd been holding off crashed over her. Gasping and thrashing with her hand trapped between her legs she very slowly came down from the much needed release. Eventually she began to relax again in the warm comforting water, enjoying the satisfaction coming from both herself and her lover. There was a soft tap on the door. "Come in" she mumbled sleepily. Michele slipped into the room and closed the door behind her. It wasn't unusual for Michele to be in here with her. Since she and long ago enjoyed reading and such in long baths Michele would sometimes join her in the small room and chat with her while she soaked. Their nudity didn't bother each other. Sometimes Michele would even join her and sit at the other end and they'd both just lie there and talk about whatever. Karen wondered if she could get Emma to enjoy this with her too. "Seems like you've had a busy day," Michele said as she sat in the small chair next to the tub that she'd bought for this exact purpose. She'd gotten tired of sitting on the floor and sitting almost below Karen. This way they could converse more naturally, and it was also a convenient place to keep her warm blue robe. "That's quite a catch you got yourself." "So you like her?" Karen asked. "Of course, it's like the other girls said earlier. You two look so natural together especially seeing you hold her like that. I know it's incredibly cliché but it almost looks like you were made for each other. When you were holding her it made me want to hug you both and congratulate you." "Haha, thanks I guess." "I mean it. I think she'll be nice to have around. It's also good to know that when I go off to school next year you'll have someone with you. I had kinda worried about that before." "I'm glad you like her." Karen said. "I know it's only been two weeks since I've known her, but I really lover her." "I know, I can see it every time you look at her, and her at you also. You guys also seem to have the eye talking thing down already to." "Eye talking?" "I mean that it seems like you two have an entire conversation when you look at each other." Karen didn't know how to really explain that they pretty much were doing exactly that via their link. Michele though stood back up. "Well, I'm headed to bed, I just wanted to see you again first," she said as she slipped back out leaving Karen alone again in the tub. Feeling happy and glowing Karen got out of the tub and dried off while draining the water. When she flopped into her own bed without dressing she let that contentment take her into sleep. |
