Crossing a Line

I looked at her pleadingly; her friendship really was the most important thing in the world to me and much as her rejection would hurt like hell, losing her from my life would be a million times worse.

"How many months and tell me how you knew."

Jesus, she wasn't making this easy for me!

"November the 5th; we went to a firework display and the weather was absolutely awful, then we were harassed by some really annoying blokes and I realised just how much I wanted you all to myself. We went back to your place frozen to the bone, so we snuggled under a blanket; all cuddled up together drinking hot chocolate with rum to warm up. I just felt like I belonged in your arms and I wanted so desperately to kiss you. That want hasn't left me since and I'm not even going to tell you what we've been getting up to in my dreams!"

That last part had just spewed out but it made us both laugh despite my furious blushes and managed to lighten the mood significantly. Jane wrapped her arms around me and held me so tightly I wasn't sure I'd be able to breathe, her mouth close to my ear causing me to shiver when she spoke.

"I remember that night and it was one of the best and worst of my life." I tried to pull away to ask why but she just hugged me tighter, keeping me still. "I didn't even want to go to the damn fireworks but you were determined so I figured that if I wanted to spend the evening with you I had no choice. Then those guys started hitting on us and wouldn't leave us alone but at least it encouraged us to leave. Being under the blanket with you was just wonderful but also painful because I knew that at some point I had to let you go; that I couldn't hold you and take you to bed like I wanted to because you're straight."

This time I did manage to pull away, looking at her incredulously.

"Why the fuck didn't you say something?" I almost shouted.

"Ellie you'd lost your husband, shown no interest in dating anyone else and YOU. ARE. STRAIGHT!!!! Do you think you're the only one who was scared of damaging our friendship? If you weren't receptive, then having your gay friend making inappropriate moves on you while you were still grieving wouldn't have been a good idea!"

We both just stared at each other, not sure what to do or say next, until Jane summed the situation up perfectly.

"What a pair of idiots!" and with that we both fell about laughing; hugging each other as tears of joy and relief ran down our cheeks.

"So what happens now?"

"Now we eat lunch and see where things take us!"

We did eat lunch whilst stealing glances at each other and giggling a lot. When we left Jane steered us off the path we'd taken to get there, telling me we were taking the scenic route, linking her arm through mine as we strolled along the bank of a small river.

As we walked past couples and families eating picnics, playing with dogs and tossing Frisbees Jane became pensive.

"Ellie I'm sorry I have to ask this but I need to be sure. I've been someone's bi-curious experiment before and I don't want to do it again. Are you absolutely positive about this? Everyone already knows my orientation so even if we try to hide our relationship for a while, you know that you'll still be labelled a lesbian right?"

I hadn't even thought about that aspect, so I stopped and thought for a moment before answering.

"I don't care. My mum would have been upset but she's gone and if my friends don't like it then they're not really my friends, so yes I'm absolutely sure and I have no intention of hiding anything; we spend all our time together as it is, so most people probably already assume I'm gay. I have no idea where we go from here though!"

"It's just like any new relationship. We take it day by day and see where we end up."

Something struck me at that moment and I had to tell Jane immediately, so I stopped and turned her to face me, placing my hands on her hips and looking up into her amazing eyes.

"This isn't like any other new relationship for me Jane."

She assumed I meant the gay angle and tried to interrupt but I stopped her. "When I met Rob I thought he was a decent guy with a hot body; I didn't actually fall in love with him until we'd been seeing each other for a couple of months. Jane, I already know that I'm in love with you."

I wondered if I'd said too much too soon when Jane grabbed my arm and headed off at a rate of knots but as we rounded a corner I saw that the path disappeared into a small wooded area, out of sight from the people enjoying the river.

"I'm sorry." she was choked up and I was getting worried; I could see the unshed tears in her eyes. "I wanted our first kiss to be at home with no prying eyes but I can't wait a second longer." and with that she placed her hands on the sides of my face and held me tenderly as she brought her lips to mine.

Oh. My. God.

Her lips were so soft and yet so demanding and it just felt so utterly amazing that I could have swooned.

Instead I opened my mouth slightly and invited her in and when our tongues tentatively touched for the first time, an involuntary moan escaped my throat and I clutched her tighter for support.

As we finally pulled away and our eyes met we were both crying tears of joy and had grins covering our faces.

"Ellie, I love you too. I have for over a year now and it's been driving me nuts just being your friend!"

"Were you talking about me on the phone earlier?"

Now it was Jane's turn to blush as she admitted that her mum had been trying to persuade her to make a move on me for at least 6 months but she kept making excuses not to.

"Well in that case will you do something for me please?" Jane nodded enthusiastically "Will you please take me home via the quickest route possible and make love to me?"

The grin that spread instantly across Jane's face was infectious and within seconds we were running down the path hand in hand, laughing as we went.

We reached my house first but Jane dragged me past, fumbling for her keys as we scurried up the path to her front door. I could feel my heart hammering in my chest and I'd been grinning like an idiot for so long that my face muscles were stiffening up.

The front door finally opened and as soon as it slammed behind us I did something I'd wanted to do for ages -- I wound my arms around Jane's neck and planted my lips squarely on hers. I had chickened out of initiating so many kisses with her in the past that I poured all that lost time into it along with lots of love, passion and I dare say, a hint of desperation. When I felt her hands gripping my arse and pulling my body tighter against hers a ripple of desire flowed through me, a moan escaping into the kiss as my blood boiled through my body.

"Wow!" murmured Jane as we broke for air. She wrapped me tightly in her arms and buried her face into my neck. I could smell her shampoo and body lotion and the feel of her holding me so tightly made me feel safe, loved and home.

Hearing a sniffle made me pull away and I was startled to see Jane was crying silently, unchecked tears flowing down her cheeks, reaching the corners of her mouth that was still wearing a huge grin.

"Sorry. I just never thought this would happen and I'm so happy it's all a bit overwhelming"

I kissed the tears away and held her face in my hands, stroking gently with my thumbs. I felt like a teenager again; about to "do it" for the first time.

"Will you take me to bed?"

Jane wrapped her arm around my waist and we walked up the stairs side by side; hips bumping in the narrow space. Jane's bedroom was filled with bright sunshine which felt like a metaphor somehow, as if my life had been filled with sunlight by finally allowing my feelings to be known and by having them reciprocated.

I turned to her and smiled shyly. "You know I've never done this before right?"

"You're a virgin?" gasped Jane, feigning amazement.

"No you nut; I've never done it with a woman! You might need to give me a few pointers." I was pushing her backwards toward the bed as I spoke, making her laugh.

"Well you're not coming across as innocent and naive!"

I shrieked as Jane turned the tables by literally turning me and throwing me down onto the bed as our banter continued.

"Oh I never said I wasn't keen and I've been doing some research" I grabbed her wrist and tugged her down on top of me, rolling her quickly so that I was on top, straddling her.

"Research huh?" she smirked up at me as her hands settled on my hips. "And just what did you discover?"

"Mainly I learned that in general, the women look like they're having a lot more fun in lesbian porn than they do in straight porn!" Jane's hands were slowly stroking up and down my sides and every time they grazed the sides of my breasts the air left my lungs, leaving me virtually incapable of thought let alone speech.

"So was there anything in particular you wanted to try?" I'd started unbuttoning Jane's shirt and I was transfixed by the way her pupils dilated as her anticipation grew.

"Oh yes, lots of things!" I answered, as her hands caressed my upper thighs through my jeans; I knew I was already soaked. I leaned down so that my breath was caressing her ear, "women really seem to know how to give oral and tribbing looks like excellent fun......oh and I don't suppose you have a strapon?"

The growl that broke free from Jane was nothing short of feral and the next thing I knew I was flat on my back with Jane on top, her mouth claiming mine so deliciously that I didn't even realise that she'd undone my blouse until I felt her fingers skim my nipples through the fabric of my bra, causing me to hiss in delight.

"I want you naked -- NOW!"

As if by tacit agreement we both got off the bed and stripped rapidly. I was done first, leaping back onto the mattress and opening my arms wide for Jane to join me as she finally untangled her knickers from her feet. I expected her to join me straight away but instead she just stood and looked at me for a long moment, a slow whistle of appreciation her only comment.

I laughed at her reaction as it was only hours since she'd seen me in a similar state, although granted the situation had been quite different. I took the opportunity to really (and I do mean really) scrutinise Jane's body and my god she was gorgeous! Her skin seemed absolutely flawless, with a faint tan line from a swimsuit. We were a similar height but her legs seemed endless from my vantage point and they were very toned, culminating in a smooth pussy with a small triangle of hair above her clit.

I was absolutely mesmerized by the way her lips glistened with arousal until she cleared her throat in a comical fashion to get my attention.

"Liking what you see?"

"Like doesn't begin to cover it! Now get your arse over here so I can find out if you feel as good as you look."

I have absolutely no way to describe the feelings and emotions that crashed over me as Jane settled her body onto the bed next to mine and our arms and legs wrapped around each other. We had already shared some kisses that took my breath away but as her lips claimed mine she pulled me even closer, our bodies touching all the way down, legs entwined and fingers gliding over smooth, soft skin. It was an experience like no other and it made me light-headed and giddy with pleasure.

"So what would you like to experience first?"

"Anything, everything, just being in your arms and feeling your body against mine in mind blowing!"

"Ha! I'll show you mind blowing! Research is all well and good but let's see how reality compares with the internet."

Jane rolled me onto my back and kissed me again in a soft yet demanding way as her fingers caressed my torso from shoulders to hips, skirting my breasts and making me pant with need. She kissed my neck and throat, slowly sliding down my body as her mouth neared my chest.

She kissed, licked and sucked my tits until my nipples were hard as stone and when she finally took the first one into her mouth I cried out loudly, arching my back to press my boob further into her mouth.

I couldn't remember my nipples ever being so sensitive before but as Jane switched between them, sucking and nibbling on them, I thought I might cum just from that alone and that certainly hadn't happened before.

I was disappointed when she left them, however her downward descent left no doubt to her destination so my disappointment soon turned to eager anticipation.

Her fingers skimmed the skin of my sides as her tongue teased my tummy button making me giggle and squirm.

Looking down into her gorgeous face I couldn't miss the mischief in her eyes and it turned me on even more. A thought flashed through my mind that knowing Jane so well and having such a similar sense of humour was making this even sexier and more fun than ever before. I'd had lots of very exciting, varied and steamy sex with Rob, but I couldn't remember it ever being so much fun -- I certainly couldn't ever remember giggling during sex!

These thoughts were cut short by the first swipe of Jane's tongue across my clit, at which point my brain shut down completely making room for all the myriad sensations she was stirring up. Now I wasn't an oral virgin by any stretch of the imagination but Jane was driving me wild!

Her tongue seemed to have a life of its own as she switched between fucking me as deeply as her tongue would allow, licking and sucking my lips and nibbling, licking and sucking on my clit. As soon as I thought I'd sussed her rhythm out she changed method, always keeping me on edge.

I knew I was babbling incoherently but I'd never been this aroused in my entire life, my hips bucking wildly as my hands clutched at the sheets, my tits, her head, anything to anchor me and stop me floating off.

I could hear and feel Jane moaning into my pussy and the realisation that she was loving this too was thrilling. Eventually she must have taken pity on me because she sucked my clit into her mouth, flicking it with her tongue as she drove two fingers into my soaked pussy and pressed them straight into my G spot.

I came. Oh my god did I cum? My hips and back were off the bed, my legs rigid as spasm after spasm rocked my world. I was panting and sweaty and limp and exhausted as I collapsed back onto the bed but Jane's fingers were still moving within me, gently but firmly stroking that magic spot; refusing to fully allow me to calm down. She kissed the inside of my thighs as her fingers worked my sloppy pussy and when she rested her thumb on my clit gently I was propelled straight back into the stratosphere, wailing my pleasure with a string of barely intelligible curse words as a second climax rushed after the first.

If I'd have had the energy I might have cum a third time just from the sight of Jane licking her fingers clean. I could see my juices glistening on her face as she crawled up the bed toward me and having her kiss me deeply with her face covered in my essence was as hot as hell.

"You are absolutely amazing!" I stated when I finally had enough breath to speak.

"That's just the start Babe, I seem to remember that the second thing on your list was tribbing?"

"But I want to give something back to you!"

"Ah that's the joy of tribbing -- you'll see."

The next thing I knew Jane had manoeuvred us into a position where she was crouched over me with one leg thrown over mine and was holding one of my legs in the air in an odd position. I started to laugh again, not sure how this was going to work but when Jane sat up a bit and lowered her pussy down onto mine it all because abundantly clear.

Jane was as wet as I was and as she slowly rocked against me our pussies slid over each other in a delicious fashion making us both whimper and moan. She kept it slow and sensual to start with but as our passions rose she upped the pace, my own hips rolling upward to meet her as she moved against me, our clits rubbing together causing sparks to fly.

This was amazing! From my vantage point I could see Jane's tits bounce and jiggle as she moved and the look of utter rapture on her face was mesmerising. I reached up and grasped her boobs, squeezing and pinching the nipples between finger and thumb and was instantly rewarded with loud moans and an increase in tempo, our pussies grinding hard against each other until we were both screaming in ecstasy as we succumbed to an earth shattering climax that left us in a heaving, panting tangle of arms and legs.

"Bloody hell woman, if I'd known you were this good in bed I'd have chanced it ages ago!" I panted as I tried to regain my equilibrium.

Jane rolled off me and snuggled into my side, her head in the crook of my shoulder and an arm and a leg thrown over my body in a way that felt strangely possessive and made me smile.

"I'm glad you're enjoying yourself -- you do realise we're not finished yet right?"

I turned to face her and kissed her deeply, my hand cupping one of her arse cheeks and pulling her tightly against my body.

"More to teach me huh? When do I get to play with your body?"

"Absolutely anytime you like but I seem to remember you asking I had a strapon?"

Now I have to admit that since I'd found lesbian porn on the internet that included a strapon my fantasies of Jane have regularly included her fucking my brains out in all sorts of places and positions with one; it still came as quite a surprise though to find out that yes, she really did have one and was ready and willing to demonstrate its use! There was something else I wanted to try first though.

All I said to Jane was "later" before rolling her onto her back. Kissing Jane's neck was a revelation to my senses! The whimper that escaped her lips was a huge turn on for me, coupled with a light hint of perfume and a little salty sweat from her exertions earlier made me heady to taste more of her.

I kissed all over her chest and I didn't miss the way her breath hitched when I got close to a nipple but I made her wait -- I was enjoying the effect I was having on her far too much! As soon as I relented and closed my lips over a nipple I was hooked. I felt her chest rise to meet me and her fingers tangled in my hair as I suckled, swapping between them regularly. Feeling impish I bit one of them gently and Jane's reaction was brilliant -- she hissed through clenched teeth and her eyes were ablaze. It seems my new lover likes a little pain with her pleasure -- who knew?

I continued to suckle and nibble on her nipples as I slipped my hand down her torso, caressing her hips, her tummy, her thighs before finally running my fingers the length of her slit and she was soaked! For some reason I found this a much bigger turn on than giving a man an erection; knowing that her body was responding to my amateur ministrations was so exciting!

I slid my fingers up and down her lips, lightly grazing her clit on each pass while continuing to suck her tits. Her body was writhing under me and when I slipped a couple of fingers into her and claimed her clit with my thumb her hips rocketed off the bed and her cry was music to my ears. I fingered her hard and fast, her hips meeting me thrust for thrust until I thought she was close and then I bit down on her nipple. It had the desired effect and immediately her walls clamped down on my fingers and my hand was flooded with her cum.

Remembering the effect it had on me earlier I made sure she was looking at me as I brought my fingers to my mouth and made a show of licking them clean. I don't know what I was expecting, I had tasted myself after all, but Jane's taste was different to mine; she had a cleaner, fresher taste that I instantly loved.

Encouraging me up the bed I snuggled into Jane's heated body and kissed her again, my tongue teasing hers as my hand smoothed her hair away from her face.

"Oh Ellie, I love you so much."
