Love Demonstration

“I want you to wait five minutes before entering ok? Please” said the brunette stopping in front of the room. Catherine’s eyebrow went up and Sara just unlocked the door with the card key before give it to Catherine. She close it fast so Catherine couldn’t see the room yet.

“Five minutes? But this will be like complete torture.” the blonde thought, resting her back on the wall. “I wonder what’s she’s planning to do?”

When the clock showed that it had been, in fact, more than five minutes, Catherine opened the door without even bothering to knock. What she saw inside took her breath away. Her eyes open, eyebrows almost hitting her hair line and her mouth drop no matter how hard she tried not to.

Standing right in the middle of the room was Sara only in red panties. But that wasn’t the best part; the best part was that Catherine could see Sara’s body from every angle she looked because of the mirrors placed all over the walls. Catherine could still remember their conversation about doing this and how much Sara disliked the idea.

Flashback:

Catherine was reading her book, resting comfortably on her pillow at the top of the bed when Sara left the bathroom after a long, hot shower. Catherine noticed her lover’s intense stare and couldn’t help by smile, though her eyes were still focused on the book. Sara’s love is so honest and real, like she never felt from any other loves, especially Eddie and Catherine would do anything for the brunette without batting an eye;

Sara threw her robe on the chair and climbed on the left side of the bed, on her stomach. “I have a question for you”

“Ok” the blonde said resting the book on her lap. Sara contemplated Catherine’s feature for a few minutes, the tiny glasses a little down Catherine’s nose leaves her face even more beautiful than already is and. “Well, what is it? Coz this book is really nice, you know” she teased

“What do you want to do for your birthday?”

“You mean in three days from now?” she asked smiling. Sara rolled her eyes before nodding. She had never met someone who liked so much to make Birthdays like Catherine. “Do I have options?”

“You always have options. A big party, a small party, a party for two all night, or a dinner in some place nice and beautiful. Again you can decide if you want your family and the guys from the lab or not”

“Let’s see… what I would like the most…” Catherine looked out of the window, her index finger taping on her lips. What a charm. Sara can’t help but laugh silently and crawled up to steal a kiss from the blonde’s lips. Catherine smiled and answered. “A dinner would be lovely, with everyone, and then a special party for two”

“Of course, we have that option too”

“But I don’t want to be in here”

“Ok” Sara said waiting for Catherine to continue sharing her thoughts. The blonde puts the book on the bedside table along with the glasses before sliding down on the mattress, stopping when she was face-to-face with Sara.

“I want a room full of mirrors, over the wall and over the ceiling so I can look at our bodies together from every angle, from every position we decide to make love. I want to see everything” Catherine whispers the last part in the brunette’s ear and lay back down smiling.

What she saw in the brunette’s face was not something she expected, she was… shocked in a bad way.

Sara smiled apologetically, realizing that the blonde was able to read her face pretty well, and sat on the edge of the bed with her legs off. Catherine sat on her knees and touched Sara’s shoulder slowly, making sure the brunette saw the gesture and didn’t freak out.

“I don’t… I mean… why? Why would you…” Sara struggled with the words feeling extremely uncomfortable and weak. Two things she hated to feel especially when being so close to Catherine.

“Why would I want to do that?” said Catherine very calm and trying not to sound too hurt by Sara’s negative response. “I love you, Sara, and that was something that crossed my mind, but we don’t have to do it”

“When it crossed your mind?” asked Sara looking at her, trying to find something, anything, that could make her feel good again. Catherine noticed the confusion and the fear inside the brown eyes and felt her eyes starting to water. She fought them back knowing she had to be strong for Sara, or at least she had to try.

“That night you came back from work, and you tied me on the hook behind the door, you asked me not to look at you. Remember?” Sara nodded. “And I didn’t look, not once and it was so perfect, Sara, the way you took care of me, made love to me that it left me wondering… what if I did see you? Would it be just as great as it was? Would be better or just the same?”

“I don’t know.” Sara mumbled felling her own tears.

“Me neither”. Catherine rested her head comfortably on Sara’s shoulder. The brunette pulled the blonde’s arms closed in front of her stomach. “But there is only one way for us to find out” she whispered.

Sara understood Catherine’s wish but she didn’t know if she, Sara, would be able to do that. She feared that the memories behind the scars - that she will see from every angle, every mirror - will jeopardize her performance with Catherine, and she doesn’t want that to happen.

“It’s too big of a risk to take, Cat” said the brunette resting her head on Catherine. “And I… I don’t want to ruin our moment together. I’m sorry”

“Why would you ruin our moment?” the blonde whispered squeezing her nose on Sara’s neck. “I love you, Sara. I love making love to you and the feel of your hands and your mouth working so wonderfully on my body. There is no way you will ruin the mood”.

“What if I freak out… just like I did now by thinking…?” Sara trade off and sighed deeply.

“Thinking about what?” Catherine said trying to look at the brunette’s eyes.

“That I will see my father beating me, all over again, when I should be working on satisfying you, me, and us” said Sara turning her body and touching Catherine face. “I don’t want that to happen, Catherine, I don’t”. Catherine felt a lump in her throat at seeing a single tear run down Sara’s cheek. She thought a lot before giving an answer, if she said the wrong thing, it would hurt Sara even more and she didn’t want that.

“I can’t promise you that you won’t remember him when you see the scars that you want so much to hide, and you have every right to never want to see them again, honey, but I will be right there with you. I will help you to deal with whatever bad thought comes back to you. If, if they come back. And if, even with my help, you still fell that you can’t do it, that I’m asking too much, then we won’t do it. We will leave the place and came back to here where you feel safe enough to do it”.

“But you will be disappointed if we came back… If something goes wrong”

“No, Sara”

“Yes you will, Cat, and I will be too because I’m the one responsible for ruining your night. I can’t do that, I can’t, I’m sorry”

“I know. But… don’t you think that maybe everything will be just fine? That you will actually like it and that… you will finally push away your father’s ghost forever?” Sara looked away thinking about the blonde’s words. She had never thought about it like that, she’d like to push away everything that reminded her of him. It was too painful.

Realizing that Sara was really thinking this through, Catherine was satisfied. Usually she couldn’t make Sara stay in the room after talking about something that hurt the brunette deeply. She got inside the sheets and signed for Sara to snuggle against her body.

“I’ll accept whatever answer you can give me, Sara, and I promise you, everything will be just fine”

“I hope you’re right” Sara mumbled before closing her eyes.

Catherine stayed, looking to the woman in her arms, feeling the tears run down her cheeks. She was disappointed at first, when Sara didn’t agree with her idea, but she couldn’t deny that the brunette’s reasons were real, or how much they hurt Sara, and by hurting Sara, it also hurt her.


End of the flashback.


Catherine knew she had pushed Sara too much when the brunette didn’t say anything the next morning. So she thought that not saying anything was already her answer. Yet, here they were, almost naked in a room surrounded by large mirrors. Catherine walked toward the brunette, removing her dress, and her hand went behind the brunette’s neck before bringing their lips together.

The kiss, at first, was slow, sweet; a gentle meeting of flesh, reacquainting themselves how much they love each other, but soon Catherine was inclined to deepen the kiss. A flick of her tongue along the seam of her lips let Sara know she wanted entrance.

A wordless sigh had Sara capitulating. Catherine slowly flicked her tongue inside, caressing first the smooth surface of her teeth, but soon delving inside further to investigate all the recesses of her mouth. She stroked across the inside of Sara’s cheeks, tickled her, before tangling her tongue with hers. Kisses like this were meant to be savored.

For long, incredibly slow moments, all Catherine did was stroke and rub her tongue against hers, sliding and sweeping across the smooth surfaces. Sara groaned and instinctively pressed the blonde’s hips into hers. Both were breathing heavily, gasps filling the large room when they finally separate.

As they broke apart Catherine’s mouth went to the brunette’s neck and shoulder making Sara’s knees goes even weaker (if that was possible) and a moan escape from her lips. Catherine held her closer licking her way to Sara’s ear. “You sure you want to do this?” she asks

“Yes”

“This is not just because of me, is it?”

“Does it matter?” asked Sara searching for the blonde’s eyes.

“It matters to me” Catherine answered honestly looking up. Sara smiled and touched her lover’s hair putting a few strands behind her ear.

“This is about you, but is about me too. I’ll be lying if saying it never crossed my mind to do this but I got scared and I pushed the thought aside but… I know deep inside that if something goes wrong tonight, which I hope doesn’t happen…”

“Me too” Catherine said anxiously, crossing her arms behind the brunette’s neck.

“…if it really happens, I know you will be with me in the morning and as long you are with me I’ll be just fine” Sara says traveling her finger on the blonde’s arms. When Sara look diverged from the arm to Catherine’s eyes the blonde couldn’t help but gasp at the intensity of love she saw in the brown eyes.
