Rising Shards

After a day that felt like an eternity, Alix and I were alone again in our hotel room. She approached one of the beds, swaying back and forth. She ran her hands over her hips, unintentionally drawing my eyes to her body. She probably lost out on a lot of attention to her form with her personality, but I was a big fan of the things about her others would find obnoxious. It was their loss they couldn't see how hot she was, too.

I approached her as well, reaching my hands out to her sides. Alix yelped, but caught herself before she could topple over, knocking us onto the bed. Me keeping a firm grasp on her helped too.

"Heh, thanks Pippi," Alix said. "Today's been so amazing."

"It really has," I said. "You're gorgeous, you know that?"

Alix blushed, looking away from me, but her hands reached for my sides too.

"You're...really pretty, also..." Alix coughed. "Kay, just to clear the air, I know we had a few drinkies, but...you're good with...you know?"

She squeezed my sides, then reached lower to my hips to give another cautious squeeze. I countered her squeezes by feeling her ass up.

"I'm very good with it, as long as you are too," I said. "Should we maybe have...rules?"

"Hmm, rule one, let's have fun," Alix said. "And rule two...uh. If something's not good, maybe just start screaming really loud."

"How about a safe word instead?" I suggested. We agreed on 'lake' since we saw the lake.

Having that at least cleared up made it easier for us both to continue, which meant making out again. Alix hadn't gotten any better at it since our speed dating session but I loved it.

It had been a while since I'd had any kind of action, so I was both excited and terrified I'd screw this up. Alix being so clumsy and awkward helped in this area at least, we could both just be dweebs together.

"Hey," I said, wiping my lips between kisses. "One question, quick."

"What's up, my delicious salad?"

I ignored asking her to explain that nickname, putting a pin in that until later.

"That rich chick you dated..." My tone gave away my jealousy right away.

"Madam Darli Cherub? I told you you're cuter, right? Or did I just think that..." Alix said. "You're way hotter, trust me."

"Heh, you did say it, I just..." I said. "I don't wanna wreck the moment, but...I hope even if this is just a fling to you, that I'm a better time than she was. And that we don't end up with arson adjacent drama or whatever that was."

Alix laughed. "Um...I maybe have flings, sometimes, but usually it goes a lot worse than this has. You...are actually a nice person, I think. Which is very different than who I usually end up with."

"Aw," I said. "Poor thing, you deserve someone who will treat you right."

More kisses, more feeling each other. Our shirts came off, and my self consciousness about my body started to wane as Alix ogled me. Soon we just had our bras and panties on, steps away from giving completely in to our desires.

"So we're really gonna do this?" Alix asked eagerly.

"Please," I said, nibbling at her neck.

"Hey, another thing..." Alix said.

"What's up?" I pulled away immediately, worried I went too far.

"Oh, nothing bad!" Alix scurried over to one of her bags, grabbing something and putting it behind her back. "There's just...a little something that really gets me off that I think you would be..." She coughed, then did a fake sneeze for some reason, then coughed again. "...really helpful? Really good at?"

I giggled. "Lemme see!"

Alix sheepishly presented a collar, a leash, and cat ears. "It's really good for me when I get to be a pet? Is that weird?"

"I think I can be very helpful with this," I said.
