Everything Cliché (Lesbian Story)

Chapter 11: Just A One Time Thing Cliche

"I'm sorry you have to go through that." Amelia offers caressing her hand in comfort.

"It's fine. We all go through that. We lose some and gain some. That's just how it is." She shrugs trying to stop the butterflies in her stomach.

"I don't want that to happen to us." Amelia whispers. "I don't know what I'll do if I lose you." She meets green eyes and they are filled with worry and fear.

"We'll try our best but no matter what, I'll always be there for you." Maxie takes those soft hands into hers. Little did she know how that reassurance is the thing that glues them together.

It was the first time Amelia saw Maxie, her friend of 4 months now, livid and her voice cold and harsh. She doesn't know who the person was but if it's making the usually calm girl shake in anger then Amelia deduces she might have done some pretty bad things to be at the receiving end of such wrath. When she listens to Maxie recalls the story, she feels herself getting worked up and angry towards Cindy. She's known people who get so caught up with others but Cindy is definitely on a different level. She suggests they go somewhere else and is glad when Maxie offers up her place. She's only been to Maxie's place once and that was about a month ago or is it 2 months ago, but she's certain the girl didn't have a cat before so color her surprised when the moment she steps into the apartment she is greeted by a tabby kitten on the doorway.

"Oh hi little guy." She crouches down and pet the kitten who rubs against her hand. "He's cute. I didn't know you had a cat." She says towards Maxie who shrugs her shoulders.

"Careful. He seems cute but he's quite an evil little thing." Maxie warns her, eyes narrow on the creature currently rubbing against her hand.

"I think you're exaggerating." She dismisses giving the cat one final scratch on its tiny head before walking further into the place. "When did you get a cat?" She asks curiously.

"Grandma thought it would be best to give me a companion so I won't be lonely." Maxie answers putting cat food on the bowl with the name Licht in it. "Although he hates me." The girl mutters as Licht struts to his bowl and eats his food. Amelia all but chuckles wholeheartedly.

"I think he likes you." She offers getting a scoff from her friend.

"He only likes me because I'm feeding him." Maxie declares walking to the kitchen while Amelia sits on the couch. "By the way, how's your quest going on for Cody's affection?" She hears the girl shout from the kitchen.

"It's been cut. He sees me as his little sister and he actually has a girlfriend." Amelia shouts back bitterly as Maxie comes back with two water bottles in hand.

"So you broke up with me for nothing?" The raven haired girl teases as she sets the bottles on the table and takes a seat beside her on the couch. Amelia sighs dramatically before closing the gap between them, curling herself against Maxie.

"I guess you'll always be the one that got away." She teases back getting a chuckle from the girl. Despite meaning it as a joke, she somehow feels there's some truth to it. Jordan's words suddenly takes the forefront of her mind.

"Hey, everything okay?" She hears Maxie ask, no doubt worried as to why she suddenly stiffened against her. She looks up to see amber eyes swirling in concern.

"I was just wondering. Back then when we were in bed together." She starts, waits for her friend to nod before continuing. "Why didn't you kiss me? What stopped you from doing so?" By the time she finishes the question she finds herself holding her breath as she carefully studies Maxie's reaction. At first the raven haired girl didn't give off anything but soon she sees her expression change from nothing to a mix of emotions.

"I didn't see the point of kissing you when no one was around." Maxie answers, her eyes guarded and for the first time Amelia is seeing a very different side of her friend than what she's used to. Maxie turns away from her and she reaches up, guiding the girl's face back to hers. She slowly leans in and the last thing she sees are those amber eyes widen before she closes the distance between them, tasting those sweet, addicting lips once again. Ever since they kissed during their girls' night out, she has been longing to do it again but she was too scared to initiate it. She feels Maxie kissing her back and she relaxes despite the awkward position she's in. She pulls away only to make herself more comfortable by facing the girl before pressing her lips once again to Maxie's. She knows if they don't stop that it could change the current dynamic between them. There's no alcohol involved, no relatives or friends to pretend to. This is by their own consciousness, by their own volition. But for the life of her, she can't seem to be rational at the moment, not when she feels a confident tongue tracing her bottom lip. She pulls away before she implodes and to catch her breath but rests her forehead against Maxie's to keep any sort of contact with the girl.

"Maxie.." she trails off not knowing what she wants to say.

"We should stop." Maxie says but she feels the girl's hands squeezing her hips. "We should stop before we do anything we regret." There's contrast between the girl's words and her actions as she's being pulled closer until she's straddling the girl.

"Maybe we can do this one time. Get it out of our system." She offers weakly eyes lock with her friend's. "Just for today." She barely stops her hips from rolling against the girl's.

"Just for today." Maxie echoes and Amelia almost cries when she feels the girl's hips rolling back against hers.

"Bedroom." She whispers as she feels herself being lifted up and she shouldn't really be surprised at how strong the girl is. A part of her is screaming to stop this before it gets too far that she is being driven by her hormones and lust. Yet another part of her is encouraging her to follow her instincts and rejoices when she feels her back hitting the soft mattress and Maxie's body on top of hers. She caresses the girl's cheek to reassure her that this is okay, that this is the best thing to do to let off their sexual attraction with one another. Silencing the logical part of her brain, she pulls the raven haired girl down and kisses her passionately.
