The brownies were delicious. The girls were well behaved. We had a good night hanging out together, and then everyone went to bed. I dressed myself in a modest pair of purple pajama bottoms with a matching little tank top and then padded down to the cellar with a small bag containing the matching toys that I'd bought for Zee and me. I was nervous, hoping she wouldn't freak out about sex toys when we just said we were going to wait, but I trusted that we'd be able to work through it.

Zee had left the door partially open, as though inviting me in. Or maybe it was in hope that the kitties would join her? Either way, I knocked softly before I stuck my head in. She was in bed, her back propped against the iron bars of the headboard with a pillow for support, and a skimpy black top was all I could see, with the rest of her under blankets.

"Would you like some company?"

"Yes please." She scooted over, patting the bed next to her. "This bed is so soft! You have wonderful taste in furniture."

"I'd like to think I have better taste in women though," I told her as I shamelessly took in the view of what I could see of her while walking to the bed. "You're stunning, Zee. You really are." I put the bag on the nightstand before I lifted the covers, letting out a little whimper as I noticed that she had only a pair or lacy black panties on her lower half, but I got into the bed next to her, and restrained myself from reaching over. "Damn, you're not making it easy to go slowly."

She surged up off the bed and straddled me, her legs on either side of my hips as she looked down at me. "Believe me, I don't want to go slowly. If it were up to me, we'd already be naked." I put my hands on her hips, holding her steady as it seemed like there was more for her to say, and if I spoke now, it would probably mess things up. "But I think we both have a lot of questions, and a lot of worries. If we just start going at it like horny rabbits, then we'll never talk, and that could make things worse."

I nodded slowly, doing my very best not to grind myself up into her, though I very much wanted to. "So, are you just testing me to see how crazy you can make me while still telling me we have to take it slow?" I gave her hips a little squeeze, making her jump, just to let her know what I meant.

She leaned down, and I felt her breath hot against my collarbone. "You were so good about being in control back at the hotel, I figured you'd have no problem maintaining it here." While I was distracted, she reached over and grabbed the bag I brought, then spun back over to her side of the bed. "Plus, I love presents and wanted to see what you brought."

She started to open the bag, and I grabbed her hands to stop her. "Before you look, I have to tell you that I got these right after I listened to you playing on the phone, and I might have been a little excited and thinking with a completely irrational part of my body."

"Demi, you can tell me you were horny and wanted to fuck me, it's okay," she told me with a wink.

I snorted, then nodded. "Fine, I was very horny, and I very much wanted to get something that we could share. Go ahead and open it, just don't laugh at me when you see them." I let go of her hands so she could do just that.

She bit her lip, making me want to kiss her yet again, then nodded before she opened the top of the bag and looked inside. "Holy shit!" she whispered, pulling out the two We-Vibes. "There's two of them?"

"Yeah, we each use one, and we can control the other person's toy. So, I could control yours while you're at school, and you control mine while I'm here. Kind of like better phone sex?" I was burning crimson as I explained it, but she was nodding along with me. "It might have been stupid, since I know you only have like three more weeks up there, but I really loved hearing you, and thought this might be a way to heighten the experience."

"I could make the toy do things to you?" she took the vibe out of the box, looking it over. "Looks like it would work really well."

I quickly grabbed the open box that I'd already turned on once just to feel the vibrations, even if I didn't use it like I wanted. "Yeah, it should."

She groaned at the thought, then looked over at me with a frown. "Now I wanna use them, but I really think that this would be impossible to go slow with."

I nodded in understanding. "If I saw you getting off, I don't think I could resist. "I paused for a moment as I had an idea though. "But maybe I could if I went back to my room, and you were down here? And I just pretended you were back at school? That doesn't help with the talking though."

"How about we get it all set up, and we try them out tomorrow. Tonight, can we talk and snuggle? Because I really do want to sleep in your arms again."

I rolled over, tossing the toys to the foot of the bed and pulled her into me. She squirmed a little, and situated herself where she was comfortable with her head laying on my right breast as I faced her and kidded the top of her head. "Is this better?"

She sighed happily, "Mmmm, yes, mommy. I needed this so badly."

I was glad I'd worn my pajama pants, because her legs were bare, as was most of her ass, and it would be much more difficult to remain calm if there was a lot of skin on skin contact. "I did too. I missed you so much. I really wanted to spend more time with you, but Elliot messed that up, and all I wanted to do was hold you." I remembered that I was going to spend that night with her, making her moan all night if I could help it, only to have Elliot break in and ruin my night and almost my life. But now, I could relax with Zee in my arms, even if the plans were different. I wasn't going to sneak out this time, I was going to just sleep here and not worry about the girls, since they already supported us, which was a great feeling.

"You can hold me all you want. I love being in your arms." We lay there silently for a bit, just enjoying the feeling of being close again. I couldn't see her face past her hair, which had falled about her, but I could imagine that she was smiling just as much as I was. Her hair was ticking my nose, but smelled deliciously exotic and fruity, and I just wanted to breathe her in. "Demi, thank you again for this room." I could hear her sniffle a little. "I know I said thank you, but I don't think I can express how much it meant that you did this. Not only did you make a room for me, but you decorated it beautifully, and made it like a little home for me."

"That was the plan. I have to admit I was a little selfish, because I was hoping you'd see the room and never want to leave."

She snorted a little before looking up under her hair at me. "I knew I didn't want to leave when I saw you again. The room was just the cherry on top."

Okay, that was pretty wonderful to hear, and I might have melted a little. "Does that mean we can officially say we're kicking off this relationship? We're going to give it a shot?"

She squirmed about in my arms, lifting her lips up to quickly kiss me, then pressed her body tight against mine. "I was ready to do that back at Halloween, and I haven't changed my mind. If anything, being away from you made me realize how much I want this. How much I want you. I'm all in on this if you still want to."

I felt a thrill surge through me as I nodded happily. "I'm ready too. Let's do this."

"Do we need to have another kiss for good luck?" she wondered with a little smile.

"I'm not too sure I can stop kissing you if I start," I admitted. "But I really do want to kiss you."

"Just one, okay?" She leaned in a little nervously, then paused with her hands on my shoulders. I decided to make sure that if we were only getting one kiss that it was one that she would remember for a bit.

I brought my right hand up from her hip to the back of her neck, wrapping my fingers around it and giving her a little squeeze that made her eyes roll back as she let out a little whimper. "Don't stop there. Be a good girl and give mommy a kiss." I put a little pressure on the back of her neck, pulling her into me as I lifted my head up off the pillow to meet her lips with my own. I didn't deepen the kiss, knowing that if I was too hungry with it then we might both do what we'd been trying our best not to. Instead, I just kept the pressure on her neck while letting my left hand run up and down her back and trailing my nails over her spine. She was letting whimpers out without our tongues getting involved, and I knew that she was right on the edge of giving in, as was I.

But it felt so good to feel her soft lips against mine, and the swell of her breasts meeting my own as she relaxed atop me. When her lips parted with a moan, almost inviting me to explore her mouth with my tongue, I knew we were skating much too close to the danger zone, and I pulled away with a gasp.

"Fuck," I muttered, shaking my head slowly as I released her neck. "I can't wait till we can do that every night."

She closed her eyes, then leaned in and placed her forehead on mine. "Why does it feel so much better when I kiss you? Every time you grab my neck like that, I lose control. What the hell is happening?" She spoke in a breathless whisper, and I couldn't help but agree. Everything with Zee really did feel better, and I couldn't wait to experience even more with her.

"Maybe our bodies are telling us that we found our match, I guess. I've never experienced this either."

"That has to be it, because I can't imagine that it can get better than this." she sighed, sliding her head to my shoulder. "Are you afraid to be with me, or are you okay?"

I couldn't say that I was 100% sure about things, so of course there were nerves still involved. I turned my head, kissing her cheek lightly. "I don't think I'm as scared as I was, but I'm nervous. I assume you're nervous too?"

She nodded, her hair tickling my nose as she did. "I've never been in a real relationship, so this is a huge step for me, and I'm afraid of fucking things up. I really like you. I mean, you know that, or we wouldn't be doing that, but I mean I like you so much more than I've ever liked anyone, and I don't want to crash and burn."

I smiled to myself because that made me feel better. Not that she was scared, I would want to alleviate that if I could, but that we were both nervous because we liked the other so much. "I can understand that. How about this, I will do my very best to let you explain anything to me before I jump to conclusions, okay? The biggest thing for me is cheating, which I guess goes for everyone, but having had Elliot do that to me, I really can't ever accept it."

She hummed in approval, making her vibrate lightly against me. "I like that. Only a crazy person would cheat on you. I promise I'll never do that, okay?"

"Perfect."
