Sapphic Voices Romance

Deirdra’s True Colors

Her name was Nicci, and she inevitably came into the bar every Friday night. I always made sure I was working that night, just so I could see her. Lost in a city this size I often got lonely, and Friday nights stealing glimpses of Nicci gave me something to hold onto. This somewhat butch girl, with sandy blonde hair, cut short, and spiked on top permeated my thoughts through out the week, though we had never met. It was each Friday night that she would saunter into my life for a few short hours, and dance with in my mind. Her bone white skin, her slender, sculpted body, and her legs that went on forever enchanted me. She was like some sort of elicit drug to me, and now I was hooked, as I relied on the weekly infusion of her sight, smell, and the sound of her voice. I always tried to melt into the back ground when she came to the bar for her drinks. I did not want her to think that I was insane, stocking her from the shadows of the bar. So I made a point to be nonchalant when she would come near.

Like every week for the past three months I made my way to the bar that Friday afternoon to open up for my loyal customers. And though none of the women who worked for me knew it there was only one person I cared about in that crowd. Pulling up in front of the warehouse turned night club I let my eyes wonder over the large neon sign that hung on the side of the building. Deirdra’s True Colors flashed in a ripple of rainbow colors across the side of the building. I had purchased this old run down warehouse near the docks in the warehouse district of Chicago five years earlier, and turned it into a huge oasis for the women of Chicago. It was the best investment I could have made, and in turn I had the chance to be engulfed in a beautiful cross section of the lesbian community. I loved everything about having this bar, and I was only getting started.

Unlocking the huge doors that opened into the main bar and dance floor of the expansive night club I entered and started my daily ritual of opening the bar. Soon the other bartenders and waitresses would be arriving to help for the night. I always left the main bar to the younger sexier girls. It was good for business to have a room full of goddesses as you entered the bar. Also Nicci always spent her evenings in the dungeon playing pool and laughing with friends.

"D!" Ellen called to me as she slipped in through the doors of the bar. "You are here early." She called to me.

"Want to get ready for the festivities, you know." I called back to her as she joined me in the center of the room. She was one of the younger women who would be running the upstairs bar, as I ran the dungeon down stairs. Her dark brown hair flowed softly over her shoulders, falling on her tight black shirt that exposed her delicate midriff. She was a little taller then me, about five nine, and a good ten years younger then me at twenty four years. She was great for the bar, as she would flirt with the all the girls letting them imagine for a moment that they might truly be able to have her. Though to my knowledge she had never gone home with any of the patrons.

"You are looking sexy as always." She said to me giving me a quick squeeze, and a light peck on the cheek. I was wearing my usual black levies, I liked the way they made my ass look, and I refused to wear any other brand because of it. My Dark blue denim shirt was unbuttoned half way letting my white T-shirt show through. My age wore slightly on my face, but I did what I could to hide it with a warm smile. I wore my hair short, not afraid to be pegged as a dyke, but not so butch that everyone would guess it. Keeping busy with the bar, and any kind of sports I could find the time for kept me in relative good shape for a woman my age. I liked to think that I could still get a cute chick like Ellen if I wanted.

"You are looking pretty delicious as well, my dear." I said with a wink. "Big tips tonight?" I said enthusiastically.

"Here is hoping. Mamma needs a new car." She said with a laugh as she made her way behind the bar and began to get ready for the onslaught of women who would be there in less then a hour.

I then made my way downstairs and opened up the pool hall. I had everything all ready by the time Julz snuck in fifteen minuets late. "If you think I don’t know your plan to get out of the boring work you are sadly mistaken, Julz." I said to her as she caught my eye.

"I’m sorry boss. It is just that as I was leaving from my place to get here in plenty of time to help you open Jody Foster showed up on my door step bare-assed and I could hardly turn her away." She said with a twinkle in her eye.

"I’ve heard that one before. Jody always find a a way to show up at the most inopportune times, wouldn’t you say." I remarked.

"I guess it is all in the way you look at it." She smiled at me. I was a fool for her deep brown eyes, and the way she would tilt her head and laugh when she was trying to get out of a jam. Julz was about thirty, shoulder length brown hair, and she stood a few inches shorter then me. She was also a flirt, and I loved that about her. We always had fun on Friday nights flirting back and forth innocently. When I thought about it I had to admit I would not mind taking her home. She was a sports fanatic as like me, and I imagined that she would have the stamina to keep up with me at least. Some times I wished that I had not promised myself that I would not get involved with the girls that worked for me, as it had been a long time since I had actually had someone to share my bed with. But in the long run the hassles I averted greatly out weighed the pleasure I missed out on. Or that was what I kept telling myself anyway.

Little by little the bar began to fill up as the loyal trickled in to pick their favorite pool table. Julz and I settled back in for an average evening, teasing and flirting back and forth as the night wore on. Nicci did not show up till about nine, so I could kick back and have some fun before I had to start my increasingly creepy Friday night ritual. It seemed to me as long as I kept it a secret that I had a thing for this woman, well then no one would know that I was slowly loosing my mind. That night seemed to be particularly slow getting started and Nicci and I were playing around more then usual. Unbeknown to me Nicci and a few of her friends had snuck in and taken up at a table in the corner. Not seeing her I kept up my friendly banter and sarcasm with Julz as we carried on like we did not have a care in the world.

With my back toward the corner that Nicci and her group were sitting I could not see that she was making her way to the bar for their first round. Suddenly, as I was in my own world, her voice cut through my thoughts like a flash of lightning. "Excuse me." Her voice was low and sexy, as I froze for a moment. Julz had just gone to get another case of beer, and I knew I had to snap out of it. I could almost feel her breath on my neck she was so close. Every inch of my body tingled as I let her voice echo through me. Turning, so as not to look like some kind of fool, I smiled at her, my eyes soft and friendly. "Hello." She said as she smiled back at me.

"How are you?" I asked as if I was talking to an old friend. Inside I kicked myself as I must have sounded incredibly stupid.

Her smile widened as she slowly ran both her hands through her short hair. "Very well, Deirdra. And you?"

I blushed a bit, surprised that she knew my name. "I am good. What can I get for you tonight?" I asked, moving on as fast as possible hopping she would not notice my reddening cheeks.

"I’ll have a pitcher of your finest beer on tap, please." She responded politely, still smiling at me. It seemed as though the sun was shinning on me as she smiled warmly at me. "Oh and three glasses as well." She added.

Turning away from her and bending down to retrieve a pitcher from under the counter I could feel her eyes on me, and I blushed more intently. Usually an out going person with never a shortage of things to say I felt tongue tied for some strange reason. As I walked back to her with the full pitcher of beer she slowly scanned my body with her eyes, not attempting to hide that she was checking me out. "I think I have been waited on by the wrong bar tender all these months." She said winking at me, her smile still big and beautiful. Nicci could not have been a day over twenty five by my calculations.

"An old thing like me?" I said trying to hide my embarrassment, and school girlish glee over her obvious flirting.

"Don’t kid your self, D!" She said with a suddenly serious tone touching my hand gently as I returned her change. "You are a sexy woman, for any age." Neither of us moved for what seemed to be an eternity, though it was only a few seconds. Then smiling at me again, she let go of my hand with out taking the change she was due, and stepped back a few paces. "I’ll be back in a while for more drinks." Nodding dumbly at her as she turned and walked back to her table I watched her walk all the way back. This time unashamedly checking her out as my heart raced in my chest.

"Why Miss. Deirdra, I think you have an admirer." She smiled as she winked at me. "All those years of working out have paid off. You have a sexy, baby dyke after you." She laughed gleefully at the prospect of me and Nicci together. "She sure is cute, though."

"Indeed." I replied matter a factly, turning to resume my work. Trying to throw myself into some important task so Julz would not see how much I longed for this young woman. It was to late, however, as my eyes had given me away.

"If I did not know better I would think that you enjoyed this young things attention." She teased.

"Who wouldn’t?" I replied. "She is awfully sexy." I said stealing a glance toward the corner were Nicci sat. As I caught her eyes that were locked on me I blushed fiercely, and looked away.

"I think it is cute, D. She does seem nice. Plus she has been coming in her for at least a month now." I knew of course how long she had been coming in, but I thought it best if I did not give away all my secrets so easily. "I think you should totally snag that baby dyke, girlfriend." She said with a devious smile. "I mean, seriously, if you are not careful you will grow back that cherry you lost all those years ago." She smirked to herself, amused by the taught.

"Are you kidding, I think I already did." I confessed. "I mean I think there is a time limit, and then it suddenly reappears." We both laughed at the prospect. "I am not sure I would know what to do with a woman like that. It has been so long." I giggled, but inside I was almost serious.

"Oh please, D, it is not brain surgery. You don’t just forget. It is more like riding a dyke, I mean a bike. You never forget. Just wait till your ‘riding’ again. It will all come back to you. If you like I would be willing to help you get your skills back." She offered as she threw her head back and laughed. "I mean anything to help a friend." She added.

"Your offer is to kind, but I am afraid I may scare you with all the talents I have." I giggled, as I teased her back.

"Bring it, girl. I am always interested in learning from masters." She said as she came dangerously close to me, placing her hands on my hips, her face only inches away from mine.

"Watch it girl. You are going to blow my chances with baby dyke over there." I smiled at her as she stepped back.

"Don’t you worry, D, I would not do that to you." She promised.

As the night wore on Nicci made many more trips to the bar, always making sure to be waited on by me. Each time we flirted with each other as if we were school girls. It was almost embarrassing, but I refused to let that hamper my fun. After all these months of admiring her from a far she was right in my face, and seemingly wanting to be there.

The bar closed at two, but usually Nicci would leave by midnight. That Friday night, however, as her friends left her at one in the morning she moved to the bar, and settled in for the remainder of the night near the end of the bar. Trying not to hinder my work that night, she would strike up a conversation with me every time I had a free moment. I basked in the attention she showered on me. It was fun flirting with her, and deep inside I could not help but think what if?

"So tell me, Deirdra, how long have you owned this place?" She asked as there was a lull in the action at the bar. Julz was happy to help us as well, taking as many of the orders as she could handle to give us the opportunity to chat.

"We have been open for about five years now. It used to be a big abandoned warehouse, as you can see. I thought what a great place for a bar. It took a while to get it all renovated, but I like how it turned out, and we have had a great response ever since we opened our doors." I explained.

"And how has a sexy thing like you gone unattached so long?" She asked.

"And what makes you think I have gone unattached?" I replied, not wanting to seem like some kind of a washed up, lonely dyke.

"I have asked around. Don’t be upset, I just did not want to step on any toes, you know." She admitted. I could not help but think that that was absolutely adorable, and I was flattered by her attention. "After all this time of me coming in here, I never had the chance to even say boo to you. So I had to sneak up on you tonight before you could escape, and pass me off to Julz. Not that there is anything wrong with Julz, but ..... " She let her voice trail off as if she did not want to say to much, though by now we had both betrayed our true desires.

"I have got to have at least a good ten years on you, cute little Nicci." I said.

"Not at all, sexy Deirdra." She replied. "I am twenty-eight. That only gives you seven years. I told you I asked around." Her eyes twinkled as she leaned back proud of her sleuthing skills.

"It seems you have. And I was none the wiser." I admitted.

"It was also brought to my attention that three months ago you changed your hours and began working every Friday night down here, though as the boss you did not have to. Coincidence...?" She asked. "Or was that by design?"

"I can hardly betray all of my secrets tonight. What will we talk about tomorrow?" I asked suddenly blushing as I gave away more then she asked for.

"That is more then enough of an answer for me." She smiled her delightful smile, sitting back in her chair again, crossed her arms and giggled softly to herself.

Behind us Julz rang the bell on the wall and called out, "Last call! Get it while you can, or be thrown out sober." She laughed, as a throng of women made there way to the bar.

"Well, I guess that is about all for me tonight. You going to be back here tomorrow night?" She asked as she began to gather up her belongings.

"I could be,.....if you like." I said smiling at her. "I have a better idea though. Why not stay after close and we can have some coffee, and chat more." I suggested.

"Hmmm.....", she began, with a pensive look on her face as she brought her hand to her chin and rubbed it as if she was thinking deeply, ".....I guess I could do that, if I will not be to big a distraction to you." She concluded.

"Oh, I think you will probably be a pretty big distraction to me, but I think I might like that." I replied smiling back at her.

"Well I will stay then." She said matter a factly. Soon two o’clock came and the bar cleared pretty quickly as people made there way to their homes and the all night dinners near by.

From the over head P.A. I began to hear people calling out their stations, "Clear on the first tear." I heard Ellen’s voice come booming over the P.A. "Clear in the gallery." Came another voice from above. "Clear in the lounge, clear in the toy shop." Came more voices. "Clear in the dungeon." Julz called out last. "Locking down." Ellen called out again from upstairs, and with that the bar was closed for the night, leaving us working stiffs to clean up the mess.

"Cute ritual." Nicci said as I poured her a cup of coffee.

"Well I don’t want to trap any unsuspecting guest in for the night. We have found people passes out in bathrooms, and sleeping it off in dark corner booths before. So we try to do a sweep of the building before we lock up for the night." I said to her, pouring myself a cup for coffee as well and joining her on the other side of the bar.

"Done for the night, D?" Julz asked.

"Well, you know, I did not want you to feel left out after not getting to help open this evening, so I thought I would let you close." I smiled at her, then turned to Nicci, "How about we go over to a booth were we can be more comfortable?" I suggested.

"Paybacks are a bitch, aren’t they boss." Julz called to me as Nicci and I moved for a booth on the other side of the room.

"I guess being the boss has it’s perks, hah?" Nicci said as we sat down together.

"More often then not I work longer then others, but sometimes I can use my clout to take a break." I replied, moving around a bit to get comfortable. "Turn on some tunes Julz." I called across the bar to her. Nodding to me she went behind the bar and cranked the stereo. From upstairs I could here the sounds of music beating out a rhythm. Turning to Nicci I smiled and thought to myself how great the evening was turning out already.

Suddenly things seemed to be awkward between us. It was as if it had all been fun and games up until this point and now things had turned some how serious. Now we were playing for keeps, and the adjustment was a little uncomfortable. For a moment we smiled awkwardly at each other, then simultaneously sipped at our coffee. "So you like running the bar?" Nicci asked, searching for something to say.

"It is a lot of work, but I like it very much. I get to meet all kinds of people, and it feels like home being surrounded by the community all the time." I replied trying to be as open as possible. "Vacations are hard for me, as I am increasingly nervous about leaving the bar in someone else's hands. It’s like I am afraid that someone else will not do everything right. But I need to snap out of it, I know I’ve got some great girls working here."

"Give it some time. Maybe you will find a good enough reason to let go a little and take a much needed vacation." She responded, smiling innocently at me, though I thought I detected a slight note of mischief in her tone. "How long has it been since you have taken a break form this place, or taken any kind of vacation?" She asked.

"Hmmm.....", I said thinking to myself, "I a few days about two years ago when my sister in Wisconsin was having a baby. Then before that.....it must have been.....I don’t know, maybe college when a bunch of my friends and I headed for Florida for spring break." I concluded feeling a little stupid for being so anal about my bar.

"Well, it sounds like you need a vacation then." She said. "Were would you like to go on vacation if you could go anywhere in the world?" She asked.

"Oh my that is a hard question. There are so many places I would want to go. I would love to travel all over the world some day." I replied, feeling like we had once again found our rhythm. "Hawaii, New Zealand, Europe, Australia.....the list goes on."

"You better get cracking on that or you will wake up one day to find your self 103, and no closer to that goal." She said. I let my mind wonder for a moment as she talked imagining how it would be to travel to these places with her. I knew it was silly, I had just met her, but it all felt so comfortable.

"How about you?" I began, "Were would you like to vacation most?" I returned the favor.

"I have always wanted to go to Lake Powell in Arizona, I have always wanted to go on a cruise, maybe to the Caribbean or through the Mediterranean Sea. I guess almost any were. I just love the entire idea of traveling." She answered.

"Yes, I keep thinking that one of these days I will break down and take a cruise on one of the Olivia cruise lines." I confided to her.

"That would rock!" She exclaimed. "Slicing through the white capped waves of the Caribbean on a ship full of lesbians. That sounds like a dream vacation." She bubbled with a twinkle in her eye. We chatted on about the dream cruise, and how great it would be if only... And before we knew it, it was three o’clock in the morning.

"Hey boss, I’m going home. Everything is done. I will see you tomorrow then?" She asked, stopping by the table.

"Absolutely." I said taking her by the wrist. "Thanks so much for cleaning up tonight. I really appreciate it." I said sincerely. "We will walk up with you." I added as Nicci and I got up from the booth, and I replied out coffee cups behind the bar in the sink. The three of us walked up the stairs to the main room of the bar. Upstairs everyone was just finishing up as we emerged from the dungeon.

"I only regret that I did not get to dance with you tonight." Nicci whispered in my ear as she slung her arm through mine, walking across the room to the central bar.

"Everyone about done up here?" I asked as the group of ten women converged at the bar.

"Everything is locked up, shut down, and ready for tomorrow." Julz said smiling at me and companion. "My name is Julz, and you....?" She trailed off awaiting a response from Nicci.

"I am sorry, everyone, this is Nicci. Nicci, everyone." I replied introducing her. They all extended their hands one by one introducing themselves to her.

"Nice to meet you all." Nicci said graciously.

"Why don't you all beat it and I will finish locking up. Thanks for all your hard work. The night was great. Have a good one, and we will see most of you back here tomorrow." I said. With that everyone made a quick escape, leaving Nicci and I standing alone in the middle of the expansive bar. Walking to the door as the last of them disappeared I locked the door and returned to Nicci.

"How about that dance now?" I asked her in the sweetest voice I could find. Taking her by the hand I lead her over to the dance floor, stopping for a moment at the d.j.’s booth for some music and ambiance. I chose some slow music, and turned the lights down low with just the strobe lights dancing across the floor, and bouncing off the crystalline mirror ball hanging above us.

"Are you the hopeless romantic, Deirdra?" Nicci asked as she slid her arms around my neck, her bright smile beaming at me.

"I guess you could say that." I replied moving my hands to her hips, and sliding them around her waist.

"Could you be the goddess I have been waiting for all my life to sweep me off my feet?" She whispered in my ear.

"Could be. I guess we will have to see." I whispered back taking in the beautiful aroma of her perfume, mixed with the hairspray and jell in her hair. It was intoxicating. Wanting to kiss her soft neck I refrained instead deciding to gently caress her back, as I held her closer to me. I could feel her hot breath on my neck as she gently ran her fingers through my hair. It felt so good to hold someone again. It seemed like it had been forever since I last danced so intimately with someone. I thought for a moment that I should pinch myself to make sure I was not dreaming this all, but I decided if I was I did not want to wake up from this particular dream.

We danced for a while as the intensity of our closeness grew stronger. I was not accustom to taking almost perfect strangers home for the night, but this night I wanted more then anything to take this beautiful woman home with me. For a few moments fears ran through my mind. Thoughts that I was reading to much into her actions, and even if I was not I did not want her to think that I just took any old girl who caught my eye home with me at night. Then the fear set in that she could be setting me up for something. Me, the owner of a popular night club, I could not help but wonder. Stranger things have happened. Forcefully I pushed these thoughts away, desperately trying to get control of my suspicious and paranoid mind.

"You are so sexy." Her voice broke into my thoughts as I let them drift away on the music that engulfed us. Her arms wrapped around me tighter as she lay her head softly on my shoulder nestling into my neck. Her warm breath on my ear sent shivers through my body, as the fire that had been growing in me al night quickly threatened to burn out of control. "You smell so good...", her sexy voice reverberated through me again, "of jasmine and gardenia." She said softly, her breath still tickling my ear. Holding her close, her body so warm and inviting, the evening seemed to be so perfect. I closed my eyes as I let the intensity of the moment wash over me.

"You feel so nice, as well, Nicci. I am glad we did not let the evening end with out a dance." My hands moved over her back more as I heard her let out a soft, pleasant moan as she pressed her body into mine. The music played on as we swayed slightly to it’s rhythm. Neither of us seemed to want the evening to end as we continued to hold each other tight letting the music engulf us, and the sensuality of the night wash over us.

Stepping back from me slowly I was afraid that she was going to leave me for the night. Instead she let her hands slide slowly down my arms to my waist, and then back up the sides of my torso till she came to my neck again and finally taking my hands in her soft hands. I wrapped my arms around her waist again and pulled her closer to me. My eyes were watering a little, as I longed to kiss her sweet lips. For an eternity we gazed into each others eyes trying to discern just exactly what the other was
thinking. Then slowly she moved closer to me, kissing my left cheek ever so softly, then my right, and settling on my lips kissing me firmly. She was sensational, her lips moved perfectly with mine, as we tasted each other. Slowly I moved my hands down her back, hoping she would not try to stop me. Wanting to feel and know every inch of her perfect form I allowed my hands to make their way to her ass. My mind was almost exploding with delight as I felt her moving in my arms. Touching her, she moaned with undeniable pleasure, and I kissed her deeper excited by her reaction. Slowly I moved my hands up her back again, as I did she reached for my hand placing it back on her ass. I smiled pulling away from her for only a moment, then moving to her neck to kiss her soft skin. Moving toward her ear I began to nibble gently at her lobe, the I whispered, "You feel go good." Giving out a low, breathy moan. Tilting her head as I kissed and sucked her ear I felt her giggle inaudibly. Hear hands glided slowly from around my neck and began to investigate me breasts. My moans grew louder to her touch. I felt like I was in heaven. She stroked the both firmly, them squeezed them gently, running her finger tips over my now erect nipples.

Turning her head a little so she could whisper in my ear she said, "You are so gorgeous. I want this night to never end." She slowly began to unbutton my denim shirt more then slipped her hand inside to better feel my breasts.

"Oh god!" The words fell out of my mouth with out hesitation. "You are so...", pausing in mid thought to kiss her forcefully, "....good." I continued in a hushed voice as if there might be someone to over hear us, though we were alone in the bar. Sliding her left arm behind me and caressing my back and ass, while she continued to message my breasts with her right hand, we kissed each other deeply. Then she slid both her hands under my denim shirt and pushed it off my shoulders letting it drop to the floor. Stepping back a pace from me she scanned my body slowly as if to memorize each curve. I studied her body as well, making note of her delicious full lips, her soft skin, her gentle curves. I wanted her more and more each second, and she did not seem to be discouraging me.

Stepping a half a step closer to me she run her hands up under my shirt. Her hands were so warm against my skin. My entire body tingled to her touch. Slowly moving her hands over my stomach, admiring my body as she went, then moving her hand increasingly closer to my breasts as she looked deep into my eyes. "Am I moving to fast, Deirdra? She asked. The way my name rolled off her lips sent yet another jolt of electricity through my body. I shook my head no, closing my eyes and letting my head fall backwards a little as I moaned in pleasure. Her hands were now under my bra, fondling my breasts. With each stroke of her hand low moans escaped from deep with in me.

"Oh, god, Nicci. Oh, god! You feel so electric, so exotic." I said raising my head again and looking into her eyes as I spoke. Pulling her into me again, trapping her hands against my chest I kissed her lips, letting my tongue find it’s way inside her mouth, as hers entered mine, tasting each other. My hands were on her ass again, but it was not enough for me any longer. Finding her waist I moved my hands down the small of her back and inside her paints feeling her warm skin on my eager hands. Almost as if she was surprised by my actions she let out a small gasp. Quickly I removed my hands, not wanting to make her uncomfortable.

"NO!" She said in a hushed but insistent tone. "Don’t stop! You feel so good, Deirdra." She breathed into my ear. Smiling inside I moved my hands back and caressed her butt with new found pleasure. "I want you so much, Deirdra." She said continuing to say my name, almost as if she knew how much I liked hearing her say it. "I don’t want to do this here, though, and my parents are in town for the weekend. I don’t want to......have any ........distractions." She said still touching my breasts and caressing my torso.

"We could go to a hotel if you like. Or if it is all right with you we could go to my place. I do not live far from here." Still concerned that she might think me some kind of nymphomaniac, who takes a new girl home each night, I continued. "I don’t want you to think...."

She interrupted me before I could finish. "I don’t usually do this either....., but.....you are just so perfect. Like that something that has been missing for so long. I just don’t want to let you go tonight."

Stepping back from her, not before kissing her one last time, I picked up my shirt and put it back on. "Let me get the alarm, and turn off the music. We will go to my place then." I said walking for the d.j.’s box.

"That is what I like a woman in charge." She laughed, as she moved for the table that had her belongings on them. In a few minuets we were standing outside the bar. It must have been nearly five a.m. as the sun was threatening to rise. "Shall I follow you, or ride with you." She asked.

"Which would you prefer?" I asked. "I would like to ride with you. I am afraid that if I take my eyes off of you, you will vanish back into that fantasy world of mine you have been living in since the day I first say you." She said smiling at me vulnerably.

"Very well, you will not loose sight of me then." I said wrapping my arm around her shoulder as we walked toward my car. We made the ten blocks to my house in record time. All the while Nicci caressed my head, and chest while kissing my neck. I felt certain that this could not be safe as excited as it made me, but I could not tell her to stop. Pulling into the driveway of my house I left the car there, instead of putting it in the garage, and pulled her inside.

Quickly making our way to the bedroom we undressed each other as I led the way, dropping clothes through out the house. Finally in the bedroom I threw her on the bed. She giggled lightly as she bounced on the bed, her naked body so beautiful in the dawns light. Drawing the shades I moved quickly to the bed and joined her.

"You know I was not kidding, I have been dreaming of this ever since the first day I saw you in the bar." She said stroking the side of my face gently with the back of her hand. "You were so sexy, and I thought I could never get next to you." She confided in me.

"Why ever would you think that?" I asked.

"I could not imagine that someone had not snapped you up. Of course I thought I could try to break you and who ever it might be up. But I knew I could never do anything that might cause you pain. So I sat each week and admired you from afar. Inquiring from time to time about you as not to seem to desperately infatuated with you. It was not long till my friends figured it out, though, and then they started collecting information about you for me." She concluded.

I smiled to think of all the trouble she had gone to so she could meet me. "I will admit I was drawn to you when I first saw you. That is why I rearranged the schedule at first in hopes that you would come back. Then when you did I just kept working Fridays wanting to see you every chance I got." I explained. "I could not wait on you, though, I knew for sure I would give myself away talking to you. So each time you came to the bar I made sure Julz or one of the other girls waited on you. I did not want you thinking I was some kind of stalker, and I did not want you to stop coming to the bar."

"I thought at first you were onto me, always seeming so aloof when I would come over for a drink. Why didn’t you talk to me, ask me to dance or something?" She asked.

"I did not want to take the chance. I was afraid. You are much younger then me.....and you are so beautiful." I cupped her cheek in my hand and bent to kiss her.

"Well I am glad that when I trapped you at the bar tonight you talked with me. I knew when you smiled at me I just might have a chance." She said letting me kiss her.

Gazing over her body, the light that peeked through the window dancing on her skin, I moved my hand over her soft, supple skin. Her breasts perking up as my hand passed slowly over them, and a moan escaping her lips as I moved my hand slowly over her firm body. Her eyes gazed up at me and I wondered how this could have all happened. Two people so attracted to each other, and so seemingly right for one another. I had only ever heard of it in fairly tails, but maybe this one fairy tail would come true for us starting tonight. Moving on top of her I felt her warm body under me. The feel of her skin, her breasts, her torso, pelvis, and legs pressing tightly to mine, I caressed her face gently, tracing the curve of her cheek bone with my fingers, then her lips, and her eye brows. Everything about her was so sensual, so beautiful.

"I think I could fall in love with you so easily, Nicci." I whispered to her.

"I know I could fall for you, Deirdra. I love the way your name sounds when I say it. I have been dreaming of moaning your name as you make passionate love to me for weeks now." She breathed out the words as she ran her hands down my back on onto my ass, caressing it gently, then more forcefully as I lowered my head to kiss her.

Wanting to take it slowly I tried to be patient, but I found that I was to excited to go slowly any longer. Kissing her lips again, I then moved down her body kissing and nibbling her neck then over her shoulders till I reached her breasts. Eagerly I took one of her breasts in my mouth as I squeezed the other in my hand. She took my free hand and moved it to her mouth sucking each finger as she drove me wild. All the while I could hear her moaning, as her body moved beneath me. Moving to the other breast I licked it, teasing her as I circled her nipple with my tongue. She took my other hand and began to suck each finger on it into her mouth freeing my other to message her free breast. Then moving down her body further, kissing each inch, and caressing her splendid body as I moved between her legs.

Taking one hand I lightly touched her, smiling up at her when I found she was extremely wet. I soft giggle escaped her lips as she closed her eyes for a moment, as I slipped inside her. "Oh Deirdra!" She moaned, grasping the sheets with both hands, then moving them to the top of my head she ran her fingers through my hair as I placed my lips onto her. Softly at first I liked her, sucking her in wanting to taste her. Pulling out of her for a moment, not wanting her to come to fast, she called out to me, "Oh
god Deirdra, go back inside me. I want to feel you moving in me." Her tone was desperate, and sexy, and drove me on. Pushing as much of me inside her that I could with out hurting her I felt her body rise slightly from the bed, I could see her head push backwards into the pillow, and a deep, longing tone reverberated from her. "Yes, Deirdra, yes." She said in a labored voice. Moving against her rhythm we came together in one fluid movement, as her moans and gasps brought me to the edge. Sucking her, and fucking her like I thought I never could before I felt her tighten around me. Her back arched as she called out my name in repetition, "Deirdra, Deirdra, Deirdra, Deirdra.....oh god, Deirdra." Her voice made my head swim, sending waves of pleasure through my body. Then, as I moved faster against her, inside her, licking her, sucking her, she let out a delighted scream. "OH GOD. GOD! MY GODDESS, DEIRDRA!" She screamed and her legs closed tightly against my head. "Ohhh, ohh, Deirdra, Deirdra, come here to me. I want to feel you on top of me. I want to fall asleep in your arms and sleep naked with you forever. Deirdra, Deirdra, Deirdra...." She called to me as I crawled up her body and kissed her lips again.

For a moment I thought she had fallen to sleep, but then without warning she opened her eyes and smiled at me, then flipped me on my back and ravaged me. We did not move from that bed other then for the occasional bathroom break for the next ten hours. We made passionate love again and again, and talked about everything, and anything. Each little morsel about the other person seemed to hold unknown fascination. This fairy tail love would be if we had anything to do with it.

The months went on and Nicci and I spent every waking hour together that we had free. I had found that true love that I had been looking for so long, and she had found her goddess that would sweep her off her feet. Finding out, quickly, that she was indeed the renowned lesbian writer, Sweet Madia, she would write poetry and stories for me. On week ends we would go picnicking, and every Friday night she would join me at the bar. Now, however, we always made time for dancing.

After Nicci and I dated for about two months she moved in with me at my house, and things only heated up more from there. I thought that she was the most perfect someone for the higher power to send me, and I thanked god for her every day.

Then one day late in September she came to work and said, "I am going to be out of town for the next two weeks." Stunned I did not know what to say. She had given me no warning, and I was not sure if I should be angry, scared or just let it go. "The only thing is, Deirdra......my goddess Deirdra.....", she was making me more nervous as she went, "......you have to come with me. It is of course for two." She said dropping the brochure and the tickets for two to the Caribbean. My heart jumped, as a huge smile danced across my surely concerned face. "I have already talked to Julz and Ellen, they are going to do just fine with out you here for two weeks. And plus with this place on line and my handy computer you can bug them every day over the Internet.

Taking her by the wrists I asked, "How did we ever manage to hook up, my sexy goddess? This all seems to perfect, and I was led to believe that no one person was allowed to have this much happiness." She kissed me as she wrapped her arms around me.


"Let us not questions providence, let us just be happy that we have been given each other."
