Between Here and There

Part 3


Mai leaned forward in her chair with an intent look on her face. Sitting in the middle on the small table in front was the Harpie Lady Sisters card. The cards Harpie Lady 1, Harpie Lady 2 and Harpie Lady 3 were placed carefully around it. Scattered seemingly at random around these four central cards were a number of other cards bearing names like 'Elegant Egotist', 'Harpie Girl' and 'Triangle Ecstacy Spark'. Thoughts trickled slowly through Mai's mind, going down paths no other thoughts had ever really gone before.

Strange what a passing, idle fancy could awaken.

Mai leaned back, crossing her legs and arms. Her right index finger tapped her left arm thoughtfully.

She looked up when she heard the doorbell ring. With one sweeping movement of her arm, she gathered up her cards, stacked them neatly and put them away. Then she stood up and headed for the door. Opening it she found herself mildly surprised that she wasn't very surprised to see Téa on the other side of the doorstep.

"Hi," said the brunette.

"Good evening to you too," said Mai. "Come in."

Mai turned away from the door and walked back to her living room. She didn't look round, but it didn't take very long before she heard the door being shut behind her.

"Would you like some tea?" Mai asked.

"No thank you," Téa replied, sitting down on a couch.

Mai sat down in her chair and crossed her legs. There was a slightly sarcastic edge to her smile. Téa didn't notice it because she wasn't looking at her. It seemed to Mai that the girl was looking everywhere except at her. This too wasn't very surprising.

"I take you had a pleasant time at the VR centre the other night," Mai began.

Téa nodded.

"Probably spent your time with some handsome young lad like... like..." Mai searched her brain for male Dual Monsters that she thought were somewhat good-looking and gave up. "Some handsome young lad," she finished. When Téa didn't respond in any way, Mai tilted her head slightly and added, "or maybe some beautiful young woman."

Téa still didn't look at Mai, but she did take a card and put it very carefully on the table as if it would explode. Which, in a way, it probably already had.

Mai leaned forward to take a good look at it. "Dark Magician Girl," she said with just the hint of disapproval in her voice.

"We sort of have a past, I guess," said Téa.

Mai shrugged. "So you found someone who pleases you. Good for you. But it's not just her, is it?"

Téa looked at her and then away again. "How did you know?"

"Just a guess," said Mai. "But I'm willing to bet you never really thought about girls that way before and now you wonder if you might be a lesbian. Am I still right?"

"Yes," said Téa. "Although I think the term is bisexual." She looked at Mai and smiled vaguely. "Someone told me that's different. But I'm not actually... you know... sure."

Mai took Téa Dark Magician Girl card and twirled it around in her fingers. "Your sexual fantasies are about a girl. Real or not, that sounds like enough proof to me."

"Well, that's just it," said Téa. "I'm not sure it's just as real in the real world."

Mai smiled vaguely. "Now there's a familiar dilemma. But in your case, I think there's a simple solution."

Mai put the card back on the table and stood up. She took the single step necessary to reach the couch. She leaned forward, putting her hand on the back rest. Téa looked up, but otherwise didn't move. Mai leaned forward still until her lips could almost already feel Téa's without actually touching them. When Téa still didn't move away, Mai closed the final inch.

They kissed.

Mai, who took pride in her experience concerning these things, found Téa an inexperienced, clumsy kisser. But she was also eager and sincere, so unlike many of Mai's previous partners.

Now Téa leaned back, putting an arm around Mai to take her with her. The blonde soon found herself lying on top of Téa, their lips still together. Mai's right hand strayed down Téa body until it found the hem of Téa's shirt. Then it moved under and up again. Téa gasped and broke free of Mai's lips when Mai brushed against her bra. Mai sat up until she was straddling the girl, taking her hand out from under her shirt. Mai slowly began pushing up Téa's shirt, exposing more and more of her body, until it rested at the top of her chest as thin line of rumpled cloth. A blush that made Mai shiver delightfully inside crept across Téa's cheeks when Mai pushed up Téa's simple white bra, leaving the girl's breasts fully exposed.

Téa gasped again when Mai cupped both of her breasts. Slowly the blonde's fingers slid over the girl's curves and brushed her flesh. Mai could feel Téa's body relax beneath her even as her breathing became heavier. Mai dancing fingers teased Téa's nipples and felt them hardening more and more with every little touch. Mai leaned down and kissed one of them softly before circling the aureola with her tongue. Mai kissed and caressed Téa breasts until they were slick and shiny with sweat and saliva and the girl was writhing with heated arousal. Without taking her lips off the girl's breasts, Mai's hand travelled down until it went underneath Téa's skirt and pressed against her panties. To Mai's delight they were a lot wetter than she would have expected. She pressed against the fabric and Téa groaned with pleasure. Suckling Téa's breasts, Mai moved the hand between the girl's legs up and down, teasing her slit through the fabric of her panties. Téa's breathing quickened, interrupted by gasps and moans whenever Mai kissed or touched a particularly sensitive area.

Mai pushed Téa's panties aside and her fingers brushed against the girl's heated flesh. Téa squealed when Mai placed two fingers around her clit and began circling. Her squeals turned into moans, deeper and more lustful than before. Her writhing body began bucking as if trying to match the movement of Mai's fingers. Mai licked one of Téa's nipples and then grazed it ever so slightly with her teeth. Téa groaned and shuddered, her eyes shut, her fingernails digging into Mai's back as orgasm overcame her. She screamed and squealed as Mai's fingers kept working her clit, wanting to see the girl's pleasure last for as long as possible.

Eventually, Téa calmed down, panting. She opened her eyes and smiled. Mai smiled back. The blonde withdrew her hand from between Téa's legs. Téa grabbed Mai's hand, shining with her own juices. Then she took it down to her mouth and licked it gingerly. Mai waited, did nothing, simply watched as Téa began licking her hand clean, a single thought going through her head

My pet.
