Paradise 02: The Senator's Revelation

It started to dawn on me what she was saying. It would be a huge political risk. "I'm not so sure this is a good idea."

"We took a poll in the district about the bill. We discovered many people supported the change or didn't really care one way or another and some said it wouldn't affect them at all. Only a small group was opposed. I realized revealing my orientation wasn't as big a risk as I thought it was."

"I need some time to wrap my head around this. It's like everything has turned upside down." I felt so confused.

"Have I ever been dishonest with you? Haven't I surrendered myself totally to you? Haven't I fallen in love with you?" Ali climbed on the bed. "I have never loved anyone more than I love you. I would rather resign my Senate position than lose you."

"Yes, you've been honest with me. You have surrendered yourself to me in the bedroom. I am thoroughly in love with you." Tears ran down my face.

She wiped away my tears. "What I was thinking is that we could go to Franklin, I'd hold a press conference. I would reveal my orientation, introduce you as my partner, and declare my support for the bill."

"You're serious about this, aren't you?" I was astonished. Less than a year ago, she was doing everything to try to keep her lesbian feelings hidden. Now she wanted to reveal it all. I thought it would be like throwing raw meat to the wolves.

"Yes, as serious as shit." She had this determined look on her face. She had the look during the campaign. It was the "I can conquer the world," kind of look. She had her mind made up and no one was going to change it.

"I don't know what to say," I confessed.

"Let's not say anything." She leaned over and kissed me. Our tongues danced their little dance in our mouths. She pushed me down on the bed. We continued kissing and held each other.

After several minutes of making out, I asked, "So when are we going to do this?"

"I have two plane tickets for tomorrow. We can call the conference for Tuesday. That gives us time to arrange everything that has to happen," came her reply.

"Wait. You have two tickets already? For tomorrow? You planned to do this all along?" I questioned, incredulously.

"Yep." She smiled. "I figured I could convince you to agree. I just didn't mean to hurt you in the process."

"Just a misunderstanding between us. Okay, I'm all-in. What should I wear to your 'coming out' party?"

"Nice and dressy, I don't want anyone to think you're a slut."

"That I'm a slut?" I responded incredulously. "You're the fucking sex maniac."

"Now is that anyway to speak to a State Senator?" Ali said mockingly.

**********

The flight was passable. Regional airlines have never been known for comfort. Ali rented me a car and put me up in one of the nicer hotels in Franklin. After the chaos of the last couple of days, I just wanted to have a nice glass of wine and go to bed.

Monday morning, I drove to the capitol building and picked up the security badge Ali had waiting for me. I don't remember giving her a picture of me, but there it was on the tag, along with "Kelly Thomas, Senator Porter Staff."

Capitol security escorted me to her office. Sharon, Ali's secretary greeted me. She was on the campaign staff. "Welcome Ms. Thomas, glad you could join us. Ali knows you're here and will be out in a moment."

I looked around and saw a few pieces of artwork on the walls. There were also pictures of her with the governor and other Franklin bigwigs. A comfortable looking couch sat in the center of the room with a coffee table and several armchairs. I was about to sit down and get comfortable, when Sharon told me to go on into Ali's office.

I entered the office and Ali got up and gave me a big hug. "Kelly, I'd like you to meet Libby Concord. She is the Director of the LGBTQ Foundation in Franklin. She's going to be with us at the press conference."

I took a deep breath. I loved Ali with all my heart. I had backed her 100%. Yet, I was worried that this briefing could really blow up in her face. "Are you sure about this?"

"Absolutely. This is something that I need to do. And this way, I can control the way this comes out."

I snickered, "Now you want control?"

There was a knock on the door. It was Connie Paul, Ali's press secretary. "It's time to go. Let's do this."

Connie stepped to the podium in the briefing room first. She said, "Senator Porter has a statement she would like to make. At the end, she will not be answering questions."

Ali, Libby and I came out. Ali stepped to the podium. "First, I'd like to thank all of you for coming today. I would like to introduce Ms. Libby Concord. Most of you know Ms. Concord as the Director of the LGBTQ Foundation in Franklin. Standing next to me is my partner, Ms. Kelly Thomas."

Cameras clicked and people began murmuring.

"I would like to announce that I am in full support of Senate Bill 26, which would amend the State's Civil Rights Act to include the phrase, 'sexual orientation or gender identification.' Many individuals have suffered violation of their civil rights because of their sexual orientation or gender identification. I have been a victim of it myself. This bill would provide people like me and other members of the LGTBQ family the same protections as other groups in our society."

There was a stunned silence in the room. It was slowly dawning on people the revelation that Ali just made.

"I will not be taking any questions today. However, Ms. Concord will answer questions pertaining to the legislation. Thank you." She took me by the hand and quickly led me out of the room.

"I kinda feel sorry for Libby. You threw her to the wolves in there." I shook my head.

"No, Libby and I talked about this. It was her idea to answer questions."

Connie walked with us back to Ali's office. "Well that should give those leaches in the press corps something to figure out." Everyone smiled at the comment.

When we got back to Ali's office, she said, "I think we both need to get out of here. Let's head back to your hotel. Sharon will take us. She's got tinted windows."

Before I knew it, we were back in my hotel room. Ali locked the door and all but threw me on the bed. "Oh god, I want you so bad. I need to feel your body against mine." As she spoke, she all but tore her clothes off. I couldn't get undressed fast enough either.

Lying on the bed, we started kissing with fervent intensity. Our hands were all over each other. Our tongues romped around in each other's mouth. I rolled over so Ali was underneath me.

I began kissing her neck, inhaling her wonderful scent. Kissing and licking, I made my way to her wonderful tits. It turned me on to hear the soft moan that escaped from her lips. I ran my tongue around each nipple. Taking each in between my teeth, I gently bit down.

"Oh my god, yes," came her response. She was raising her hips up and down, all but begging for attention down there.

My tongue slowly made its way down past her navel, around her clit and gently started kissing her pussy. I have always loved how she tasted, and today was no different. I could suck and lap for hours. I rolled those luscious pussy lips between my fingers, while I ran my tongue in circles around her throbbing clit.

"Ohhhhhhhhh, yes. That's so good." She had her eyes closed; arms stretched out above her head, purring like a kitten. I started rubbing her lips a little firmer and faster. I took her clit into my mouth and sucked gently. I wasn't going to rush this. I wanted to enjoy every moment.

"Yes, I love it. Your tongue is driving me crazy."

I took two fingers and started pressing them against the entrance but did not insert them, yet. "How bad do you want it?"

"Just fuck me already, I need it... now."

I slowly slid my fingers into her wetness.

"Oh god yes... it feels so fucking good. Please don't stop."

I thrust my fingers into her, deeper and harder, faster and faster. I could feel her squeezing down on my fingers. "Cum for me, Ali. Let me feel you cum."

"Fuck... fuck... fuck. Please right there. Please" Ali was panting and shaking. "I'm almost there. Oh yes, my clit, right there."

I gently took her clit between my teeth and pulled up. I shoved my fingers deep inside. I knew that would put her over the edge.

"Oh my god. Yes. Yes. I'm cumming. Don't stop. Oh shit. Ahhhhhhh. Yesssssssssss." Her hips rose up and met my thrusts, her fingers pinching her rock-hard nipples. Her body went stiff as wave after wave of pleasure coursed through her body.

Remembering how she drove me to multiple climaxes, I didn't stop. I kept thrusting and sucking. I could sense that a second orgasm was not too far away. I was right.

As the sensations calmed, she started trembling again. "Shit, I'm gonna cum again. Oh please don't stop. Ahh... oh god, there... fuck me harder." Then it hit. She started twisting and gyrating around. It was like a seizure. Her toes curled, her hands slapped the bed, eyes squeezed tightly shut. There was a deep almost animal-like growl in her throat.

As she slowly calmed down, I pulled my fingers from her and offered them to her to suck. She took them deep into her mouth, almost gagging on them. I turned around and lay on her with my cunt on her face. I started rocking back and forth.

She took her talented tongue and lapped upwards from one end to the other. She barely touched my clit. She pulled my ass cheeks apart, tongue fucking me. With the palm of her hand, she slapped my ass.

My breath started coming in short gasps. "Do it. Fuck my pussy. Just like that." I felt her take my clit between her fingers and thrust her tongue deep inside me. That's all it took to send me into wonderful orgasmic bliss. Lightning flashed in my head. It was like my brain was short-circuiting. I could barely think straight. I shivered and trembled. "Oh shit! Yes, please. That's it, don't stop. Oh god yes."

She slowed down as she felt my orgasm subsiding. She rubbed her hand up and down my back. "Kelly, I love making you cum. You taste so sweet."

I rolled onto my side, turned around and laid next to her. "Ali, I love having you make me cum." We hugged each other, kissing and gently rubbing each other. We must have laid there a good half hour relishing the feeling of skin on skin.

As we started to get up, there were pieces of clothing scattered all over the room. I laughed, "Not very lady like." I held up her panties that she shredded in her rush to get them off.

"You weren't too far behind me, sweetie." She tossed my bra at me.

"I love being behind you." I moved behind her, pressed my body against her back, and reached around to fondle her boobs.

"Oh god, that feels so good but..." She took my hands and removed them from her body. "We have things we need to work out. Especially, since the cat's out of the bag."

"Or the pussy is exposed." I couldn't help but giggle. I reached out to grab her crotch.

"Oh, would you please stop it," as she slapped my hand away. She started getting dressed.

Sensing Ali was actually trying to be serious, I said, "Okay, I'll stop. What do we have to work out?"

"We have to figure out what's next. I was thinking that I could get rid of my condo and move into your place." Ali was always thinking a couple steps ahead.

I nodded my head in agreement. "Alright. With your connections, maybe we can make sure access to the road into the area is limited to ensure our privacy."

Ali shook her head yes.

Suddenly, something dawned on me, "Ali, I think there's one thing we forgot."

"Oh, what's that?"

"I missed my flight home. It left 15 minutes ago."

Ali said, "I can fix that. Being a Senator means knowing who owes you a favor. Finish getting dressed and your stuff packed up. I have a couple phone calls to make." She stepped off to the side and pulled out her cell phone.

I shrugged my shoulders, got dressed and started getting things into my bag.

She came back and announced, "One of my colleagues has a charter service. At the airport, a charter will be waiting to take you back home. How's a ride on a private jet sound?"

"Oh how cool. I can't wait."

"There is a car waiting to take you to the airport." She gave me a big hug and kiss. "Kelly, I can't tell you how much you mean to me."

"Ali, the same is true in reverse." I suddenly had a rather silly idea pop into my head. "What if we get a sign for in front of the house that reads, 'Paradise Found'?"

"Oh Kelly, you are something." Ali had a huge smile on her face. "I love it."

As I rode to the airport, I couldn't help but contemplate where things with Ali had started and where they were now. It was like a dream. One that I hoped would never end.
