“Okay, fine,” Melanie laughed. “Which one do you want to dofirst?”
“Receive.”
The answer surprised Melanie, as she had expected Cameron to use it first on her. But that was the beauty of being with Cameron. Even though they’d known each other for so long, there were still surprises to be had.
Having never worn a strap-on before, neither of them had any clue what they were doing. They giggled and joked as Melanie put it on wrong the first time, then couldn’t get it tight enough to stay on the second time. Cameron finally figured it out, much to the relief of their nervous anticipation.
All laughter subsided as Melanie tenderly laid Cameron on the bed. She straddled her hips at first, unsure what in the world she was supposed to do next. Sure, she knew the general idea. But having never done it before, she was nervous. Especially because she didn’t want to let Cameron down after so much build up.
“Sorry,” Melanie shook her head to try to clear her thoughts. “I’m stuck in my own head.”
“Hey, it’s okay.” Cameron’s up on her elbows, looking at Melanie with more love than she knew as possible. “I haven’t done this either, so it’s a first for both of us. It’s okay to be nervous.”
“Are you?” Melanie bit the inside of her lip as she looked at Cameron. “Nervous?”
Cameron shrugged. “A little. But mostly excited to share this moment with you, no matter what happens.”
Making room for her nerves without letting them overtake her, Melanie nodded her head. She was beyond thankful to be trying new things with Cameron who didn’t judge her, just supported her and her feelings.
“Okay, I’m going in.” Her comment made them both laugh but also provided a moment of relief for them that they both needed. “Let me know if it hurts or you don’t like it or anything, okay?”
All Cameron did was nod.
It took them a few practice rounds to find a position that worked well for both of them. But when they did, it was more than either of them could have anticipated. It was a new way to love Cameron; a new way to show her how much she loved her body. They swapped positions twice, making sure to be patient with each other as they tried new positions.
But Melanie already knew hers. It was on the bed with Cameron’s body on top of hers as her hips thrusted with the strap-on repeatedly. Her orgasm built slower than with Cameron’s hands or tongue, but the buildup was worth the payoff.
“Holy shit,” Melanie lay breathless on her back as Cameron collapsed beside her.
“Yeah.”
“Did you like it?”
“Honestly,” Cameron giggled nervously, “I don’t know. I think so? You?”
“Your tongue is better, but I like to have options.”
“I hear that.” Wrapping her legs around Melanie’s, Cameron pulled her naked body closer. “Thank you for making this birthday the best one ever.”
“Always, my love.” Melanie kissed her softly. “Always.
Chapter 29
Cameron
The last three months had been absolute bliss for Cameron. Since her birthday, she and Melanie had grown so much closer in ways that Cameron had never expected. After being friends for so long, Cameron thought she knew everything about Melanie. But their intimate conversations as they lay in bed together wrapped in each other’s arms opened up a whole new side to their relationship. Their vulnerability with each other was something that Cameron treasured dearly and hoped would never fade.
She also hoped that Jonah and Dylan would be receptive to the conversation she was about to have with them.
Melanie had been spending more nights at Cameron’s house than her own. The kids loved it; that much was obvious by the way they acted. They loved their Aunt Mel and having her around for dinner and breakfast seemed to make both of them happy. And the same was true for Melanie. Cameron couldn’t remember a time when Melanie looked happier. Even Cameron didn’t know when she had been happier herself.
But Cameron knew sleepovers weren’t the endgame. They were wonderful, yes, but Cameron wanted more. Cameronwanted Melanie to move in with her. She wanted Melanie to sell her house, pack up her pets and clothes, and never look back.
They had talked about it a few times since Cameron’s birthday. Cameron knew they were on the same page and were just waiting for the right time. Which Cameron had decided would be when the kids were out of school.
With the end of the school year only a few weeks away, Cameron had taken the kids to Carlson’s Cafe for a Sunday lunch to talk to them about Melanie moving in with them. They’d all ordered burgers, the special of the day at the cafe, and fries. Cameron sat across from Jonah and Dylan in the booth, waiting for the perfect time to bring up the reason for their lunch.
Both Jonah and Dylan had asked her about Melanie moving in several times on separate occasions. Cameron had always told them it was too soon for that and they would be the first to know when it was going to happen. Although she didn’t have a date in mind when the big move would take place, Cameron was hoping for sooner rather than later.
