keep me awake
Becky’s widened eyes showed her surprise, but her sweet smile calmed Freen’s nerves. Becky leaned in to hug her and said, “Yes, Freen, you silly woman. I will be your girlfriend. And you are not allowed to take this back,” playfully pinching Freen’s shoulder. Freen grinned widely, overwhelmed with relief and joy, and hugged Becky tightly.
Now that Becky was officially her girlfriend, Freen leaned back, gazing at her lips and whispered, “can I kiss you?” Becky nodded, and Freen kissed her, savouring the softness and warmth. Their sweet and gentle kiss conveyed the emotions they felt at that moment, making Freen’s heart race with happiness. As Becky parted her lips slightly, Freen deepened the kiss, exploring and conquering her mouth while Becky gripped her arms. But Becky eventually pulled away, and Freen agreed to cool down, holding her hand instead.
Freen expressed her relief and admitted she almost chickened out because she wasn’t sure if it was the right time or if Becky felt the same way. Becky, resting her head on Freen’s shoulder, chuckled and said that she had been feeling the same way too. They sat in comfortable silence, rubbing each other’s hand and enjoying the peaceful surroundings, away from their busy schedules.
——
The drive back was quiet, Freen knew Becky was taking a slight nap. Finding time in their schedules was arduous, and Freen knew she had to take the chance or else they wouldn’t have a free moment until 4 months later, They were booked and busy, but Freen knew she was ready to do anything to make their relationship work. She knew Becky would also echo the effort, and she was grateful to have found someone special, who cared for her deeply, someone who made her heart skip a beat, and someone who was willing to be her partner through thick and thin. Freen was looking forward to their future together.
Halfway through the drive, Becky woke up. Freen kept her eyes on the road as she asked if Becky was thirsty. The bottle of water was quickly found and Becky gulped it down. Freen bit her lip and decided to go for it. “It’s pretty late, do you mind if I stay the night?”
Becky replied, “no problem. We can have a sleepover as girlfriends.” Her tone was light and airy, and Freen smiled in excitement.
They got ready for bed and decided to sleep together. Freen wondered why it felt so familiar. They were doing such intimate activities in the past without the girlfriend label attached. She was now more conscious of her past self and wanted to laugh at how everything unfolded. Nam would probably love to tease them endlessly, but Freen wouldn’t hold it against her. She realized that in the past, she had been slightly oblivious to Becky’s flirtations.
“Babe, have you brushed your teeth?” Becky’s voice woke her from her thoughts. Freen nodded and settled under the covers with Becky, wrapping an arm around her slim waist and caressing the smooth skin of the younger woman’s torso, which was exposed by her tank top.
Becky dimmed the lights and snuggled against Freen’s side, letting out a contented sigh. Freen nuzzled her nose against Becky’s temple and giggled when Becky kissed her cheek suddenly. “You little minx, you just want a good night kiss from me, don’t you?” Freen whispered in Becky’s ear, lowering her tone.
The Thai-British woman audibly gulped and nodded, staring at Freen with yearning and a light blush on her face. Freen smiled and brushed strands of hair away from her girlfriend’s face, leaning in slowly. Their minty breath mingled as Becky’s pupils dilated and Freen licked her lips, her hand trailing down Becky’s neck and scratching the nape. Becky shivered, her eyes darting up to her gaze and down to her lips. The older woman shakily exhaled, feeling the heat build up quickly between them. She needed to calm her racing heart down; otherwise, how else would she control herself if looking at Becky drove her damn near crazy with need?
The younger woman was getting more beautiful year by year, and Freen knew there was no way she could resist Becky in the future. Any chance of resisting her now crumbled as Becky tilted her head and crushed their mouths together, her arms wrapped around Freen’s neck. Freen nipped and licked at Becky’s soft lips, silently begging for entrance. Then, she slipped her legs to the side of Becky’s hips, settling herself on top as Becky granted access to her questing tongue. They couldn’t tear away from each other for a moment as their lips met wetly, slick with saliva as desperation rose within them. Freen groaned, pulling back as they panted heavily. Her legs were trembling from their good night kiss, which, if you asked her, was more like a make out session, but who cared with such a beautiful girlfriend?
“Good night,” Freen said as she slid off Becky with a smirk and laid down, embracing the stunned woman as she closed her eyes. She felt quite smug that night, which made for a great sleep.
