Chiana rubbed at her wet hair with a flourish, humming happily to herself. The last couple of arns had been exhausting, and the hot shower had reminded her that she was a bit sore here and there, but overall she felt great, almost giddy. She felt like a knot in her middle had been untied, a knot she hadn't known existed until the tension was gone. As she dressed she entertained herself by thinking about how beautiful John looked sliding his tongue up D'Argo's thick cock like he was licking a sweet treat. Chiana shivered, her body remembering what that cock felt like pressing against her, and she clenched her legs together tightly to hold on to that feeling. If only Aeryn could have seen that look on John's face, his eyes half closed with lust...

Oh, god! Chiana slapped a hand over her mouth, her impossibly dark eyes opening wide. Aeryn was going to kill her, no hesitation, just *pow*, one pentac jab, and that would be it, no more Chiana. Dead meat. How the frell was she going to explain this to her lover? Chiana and Aeryn hadn't been together very long, they were still sleeping in separate quarters, but Chiana knew, without a doubt, that Aeryn would *not* be amused by what she had done with John and D'Argo, *especially* with John. Chiana didn't need to be told that those two had a tangible tension between them, she could sense it every time she was in the same room with them.

Sighing deeply, Chiana made her way back to her quarters slowly, her happy mood diminishing with every step. There was no easy way out of this one. She had to tell Aeryn, and Chiana just hoped that she would still be civil to her, if not her lover anymore. Aeryn had a temper, and Chiana did not want it directed at her. If only she could show Aeryn how fun it had been, being tied up and helpless like that, watching the two men pleasure each other. Her nipples crinkled as she thought of the show they had put on for her, teasing her mercilessly. She had felt like she was going to come just from rubbing her legs together, before either man even touched her. And Chiana had decided at some point in her life that she didn't even like men anymore, at least not in bed. That bothered her a little, the fact that she had been so aroused by John and D'Argo. She considered it for a moment and decided that the only time she would say she liked a man is when he had a cock up his ass. Yeah, that would fit in well with her personal code of ethics. And it was definitely true now.

Giggling a bit over that stray thought, she was still grinning when she turned the corner into her quarters and saw Aeryn stretched lazily over her bed. She had on a black tank top and Calvin's shorts, and Chiana's heart leapt into her throat at the lovely site she made, one long leg bent at the knee and the other hanging over the side of the bed, swaying back and forth. Aeryn had her hand resting on her bare midriff, and her eyes were closed. She didn't even notice when Chiana walked in the room.

"Hello, lover." Chiana stretched the words out with a sexy little growl at the end. "Were you dreaming?"

"I'm awake. You don't have to be asleep to dream." Aeryn's voice was husky, and Chiana thought it was the sexiest sound she had ever heard.

Aeryn turned over onto her side and looked her lover over from head to toe, slowly, shamelessly taking in the silky soft skin, and feasting on it with her eyes. Her tongue slipped over the folds of her sensual mouth, wetting them like she was tasting a kiss. The heat in her eyes was unmistakable, and Chiana inhaled deeply, picking up Aeryn's scent of arousal. Chiana found it difficult to think, and all thoughts of her confession vanished from her mind. Her focus was completely on the breathtaking beauty that was looking her over like a delicacy begging to be tasted. And Chiana desperately wanted to be consumed by the dark haired goddess who was now reaching a long slender arm towards her, pulling her closer to the bed. Slow like honey, Chiana stretched her soft body next to Aeryn's, relishing the comfortable warmth of being so close to her.

Chiana felt Aeryn's warm breath on her cheek, and arched her neck up in invitation, craving those full lips pressed to the sensitive skin there. But Aeryn just nuzzled into the place between her neck and shoulder, gently, inhaling the younger women's soft, vanilla scent. A soft purr moved through Chiana's throat as Aeryn licked her lips and softly kissed her neck then blew cool air over the wet spot, causing shivers to run down Chiana's spine. Aeryn began kissing her neck over and over, licking her lips every few kisses, covering the pale skin of her throat with wet, hot kisses.

For once Chiana didn't feel the frantic need to move things faster, to hurtle herself towards an orgasm. She felt utterly content to just lay here and be ravished by Aeryn, who seemed determine to eat her alive. Chiana raised her hips slightly, rubbing her pelvis against Aeryn's leg lying between her thighs. She groaned slightly at the warm heat flooding her insides. Aeryn responded by slowly rubbing the length of her leg up and over Chiana's sex, then even more slowly back down, her knee now pressing against the soft mound between Chiana's legs. That pressure there made her feel like she was beginning to float, on the waves of pleasure streaming through her whole body, all the way to the tips of her fingers and toes.

Aeryn began moving her wet kisses down Chiana's body, licking a long, tingling trail up the crevice between the young woman's breasts with a flat rough tongue. Chiana's nipples ached to be touched by that talented tongue, so close but not close enough yet. Aeryn licked the curve of Chiana's breast with just the tip of her tongue, not using enough pressure yet to do more than just tease. Then she caught Chiana's eye, and held eye contact, peering at her from under her long eyelashes. She licked her lips again; getting them very wet, and finally sucked the young woman's nipple into the hot wetness of her mouth. She moved her lips over it, her touch still unbearably light, and Chiana ached for the pressure to increase. After thoroughly wetting the entire nipple and areola, she moved her mouth back and blew on it, the sudden coolness causing the nipple to harden and Chiana couldn't help the desperate moan that escaped her mouth. The extreme coolness was a shock after that hot mouth embracing her. Still gazing up worshipfully at Chiana's beautiful face, Aeryn moved her ministrations to the other neglected nipple, giving it the same treatment, wetting it with her hot mouth, then blowing cool air over it, watching Chiana gasp and enjoying the little sounds she was making now.

Aeryn continued her excruciating trail down Chiana's stomach now, slowly licking and kissing her way down. She dipped her tongue into her navel, and Chiana bucked her hips up at that feeling. Aeryn realized she had found a sensitive erogenous zone, and slipped her tongue in again, swirling it around once, and Chiana gasped again, her muscles clenching. Aeryn filed away that bit of information for future use and continued licking a fiery trail down her lover's soft body. Avoiding the soft curls between her legs for now, Aeryn began sucking on the silky flesh of her inner thighs, then nipped the sensitive flesh there with her teeth, causing another surprised gasp to escape Chiana's lips. Aeryn licked the bite, soothing the pain away with her wet tongue. Chiana was teetering very close to that edge, she was ready to beg for Aeryn to just fuck her already, just shove that hot tongue against her clit, but Aeryn had other ideas. She moved her mouth over to the other soft white thigh, and began to work her way up, sharp little nips with her teeth, then soft slow licks over the sore flesh.

Aeryn moved her kisses down the inside of Chiana's leg, running her warm hands all over her legs, caressing the warm flesh. Before Chiana knew what was happening Aeryn was at the edge of the bed. With strong hands, Aeryn began rubbing her feet, the touch firm enough not to tickle. Chiana was amazed at how good it felt, her body felt even warmer if that was possible. Then she nearly screamed at the sensation Aeryn's hot mouth caused when she sucked Chiana's little toe into her mouth. Aeryn pressed her tongue in between each of her toes, sucking each one into her mouth and lightly nipping to tips with her teeth. Chiana felt her self teetering on the brink of orgasm; the sensation was utterly new and overwhelming. She never knew her feet could be so pleasurable.

Chiana almost sighed with relief as well as regret when the mouth was suddenly gone. Then she realized Aeryn was moving to the other foot, and moaned with anticipation, not sure if she could stand much more teasing like this. Her pussy ached almost painfully with the need to come. But Aeryn was not done with her yet. She worked her hot tongue over every toe, sliding it in down in between each one, her tongue pressing against the over stimulated nerve endings.

Just when Chiana was positive she was either going to come from the sensation of having her toes sucked, or pass out from it, it stopped. She looked down at Aeryn, moving up over her body with the grace of a large cat, undulating her hips and never breaking eye contact with her prey.

"Spread your legs wide. I want to see you, all of you." Aeryn's voice was even huskier now, her passion evident from the flush covering her body.

With a soft moan of anticipation, Chiana complied, bringing her knees up and apart. Aeryn began licking the wet lips, moistening the curls with her tongue. She brushed them back away from the slit, and soon the entire labia was thoroughly wet. Aeryn pushed Chiana's legs a little further apart, until her engorged clit was peeking out. Aeryn blew on it, causing a sharp intake of breath from Chiana. Chiana raised her head a little, loving the site of the dark haired woman between her legs. Aeryn made no further move to pleasure her lover, just stared at the wet sex inches from her face. The lusty look on Aeryn's face turned Chiana on even more, and she was aching to feel that tongue on that most sensitive nub nestled in the wet curls. But Aeryn just stared. As she stared, Chiana's clit twitched, reacting to the weight of Aeryn's gaze. She started to squirm, suddenly uneasy at all the attention focused on her most intimate area. But Aeryn held her hips down, preventing her movement. Her gaze never wavering, watching, licking her lips. Chiana felt her clit twitch again, and tighten. She felt the warm juice running out of her.

"Aeryn, please, it's too much, please I can't..."

Chiana felt a deep tingle start inside her pelvis, the beginning of an orgasm building within. She was stunned her body was so reactive to nothing more than the gaze of her lovers' dark hazel eyes.

"I want you to come for me Chiana, now."

And Chiana screamed at the force of the orgasm that racked through her, bucking her hips high off the bed with the strength of it. Her climax pulsed through her body in waves, and it seemed like it went on and on.

When she finally came down Chiana lay panting, unable to move or talk.

Aeryn smiled at the satiated look on her lover's face. She was continually amazed at how responsive Chiana was to her touch. Frell, she didn't even have to touch her. When Chiana finally opened her eyes, she saw adoration and love pouring out of Aeryn's expressive eyes. In one fluid movement she covered Aeryn's body with her own, and kissed her with all the passion she could pour into it. Aeryn moaned with her own need, unsatisfied after the long lovemaking she had bestowed upon Chiana.

Determined to give as much pleasure as she had just received, she sucked greedily at Aeryn's neck, working her way down to engulf the dark nipples into her hot mouth. Aeryn moaned in earnest, her need pushing her on. Chiana wasted no time burying her face between Aeryn's dark curls, lapping at the hot juice flowing out of her. She pushed her tongue against the hard, glistening clit, and sucked it into her mouth, causing Aeryn to roll her head back and forth against the pillow behind her head. Chiana began flicking her tongue back and forth against the sensitive nub, loving the moans she was causing her lover to make. She slipped two fingers into the wet opening, and worked them around the hot walls, rubbing all the most sensitive areas. Aeryn bucked her hips again, and Chiana thrust her fingers in hard, licking her clit faster, and Aeryn screamed so loud, Chiana was sure someone was going to run in here to see who was being murdered. She stayed inside her lover, slowly licking her clean, then sitting up to gaze down at Aeryn's beautiful face as she licked the juices running down her hand.

She bent down to kiss her again, and Aeryn could taste herself in Chiana's mouth, sweet and musky. Aeryn curled up next to Chiana, and fell into a deep sated sleep.

But sleep wouldn't come so easily for Chiana. With a sinking feeling in her stomach she realized she still had to talk to Aeryn about John and D'Argo. She just hoped she still had the courage to do it.

The end.
