Toni
In spite of the beautiful end to my night, I woke up too early in the morning as a ball of nerves. I just couldn't get the image of my mother out of mind; she was completely unresponsive, pale, nearly lifeless. She was living, yes, but she wasn't alive. I needed to see her eyes to know she was alright. It's where she carried all of her emotion.
The sun was just barely on its way to rising now, and Janet was fast asleep in my arms nearly the same way she was the night before. She didn't move much, and was a heavy, yet silent sleeper. I could only feel her breath hitting my skin as she exhaled rhythmically. She was beautiful.
But despite what she told me last night, I had to go home. I had no clothes here. And I wanted to go to the hospital early to check on my mother. I had planned to spend a good portion of my day there, just in case something did happen and she woke up. I wanted to be there for my sisters too.
"Janet," I whispered quietly. No answer. Not a move. "Janet Jackson, honey," I sang and began to stroke her hair. She just snuggled into me more. I chuckled. "Jan, open your eyes. Wake up." Then I kissed the velvety skin on her shoulder, the only part of her I could reach in this position. She finally groaned softly and managed to wrap her arms around me in a tight embrace. I laughed again. She was too cute. "Good morning, beautiful. I know you're awake. You can't fool me now." I tried to pry her arms off of me, but she just threw a fit like a child. "I can't believe you're acting like this! Get up. You are a grown ass woman."
"Toni, come on," she groaned in a groggy, deep(ish) voice. She tangled our legs back and kissed my chest before snuggling back into my body. "It's too early. Just go back to sleep."
"As much as I want to, I need to see my mother. Are you still coming?"
"Can we talk about it in about 20 minutes?"
"I was hoping I'd be in between your legs long before then." I walked my fingers up her back, and she giggled with a slight cringe.
"Why do you do this to me?" She pouted. "How am I supposed to say no to that?"
"You don't," I whispered, laying her on her back. It was the first time I saw her face since last night, and there was something about it that looked so radiant this morning. I smiled.
"We haven't even brushed our teeth yet. Let's just-"
"Hey, you don't even have to kiss me if you don't want to. All my business can be taken care of below the belt. Now, you, ma'am, can just lay there and enjoy it." I pushed the covers back and then positioned myself at the meeting of her thighs.
"You're a mess."
"And if I do it right, it'll put you right back to sleep." I pulled her underwear off and threw it behind me. Since we had just woken up, I knew that getting her blood flowing would take a little more work. So before diving in completely, I caressed her thighs and kissed the skin around her womanhood teasingly. I heard a faint sigh escape her lips.
"God, do you always have to tease me?" She asked indignantly.
"Not teasing, Jan. Simply preparing."
"I think I'm prepared."
"We'll see. Did you sleep okay last night?"
Janet smiled. "I don't think I've slept that well in a while, actually now that you mention it. Because I went to bed with no worries, no stress, just relaxed. In your arms... it was heaven-sent."
"I'm glad." I blushed a little. "I was up thinking about my mother for a good while, but sleeping with you is comfortable otherwise." We had slept together plenty of times before, but something about it now was a little different. It meant something a little deeper now.
"Oh, Toni. She's gonna be fine."
I shook the thoughts out of my head and waved it off.
"I don't wanna talk about it right now. Right now, all I wanna hear is your moans," I paused to kiss her inner thigh. "And nothing else." I spread her open and began gently licking her core. Her body tensed at the sudden sensation before relaxing again. It was silent for a while as I gained my bearings, but soon Janet's soft moans would fill the room as she ran her fingers through my hair.
"Mmm, give me more..." she said. I picked up my pace and put a little more pressure on her clitoris, then pushed my fingers inside of her, earning a deep, low groan of pleasure. It sent chills down my spine to hear her. "Just like that, baby."
My eyes shifted up toward her to see that she was playing with her nipples as she watched me. I became a little more aroused. When we made eye contact, she nodded her head in reassurance that I was pleasing her. I reached one of my arms up her torso, and she grabbed it and kissed my fingers. Changing pace, I sucked fervently on her swollen pearl and plunged my fingers deeper inside. Janet's body contorted a little as her breath became hitched in her throat.
"Shit, Toni... yeah..."
I closed my eyes, feeling her body yearning for more and more. I didn't have any problem doing this on a regular basis; sex with men in the past sometimes felt like a chore for me to give him what he wanted, and worse, what he felt like he deserved. But with Janet, I was happy to do whatever she asked; if I had not already offered to do it myself.
Her hips moved like a snake against my fingers and tongue, deepening the sensations as she reached a climax. By the way her moans were becoming further and further apart, I could tell she was close. Her breathing was irregular, and her muscles contracted and relaxed tirelessly around my fingers. I didn't dare stop.
Then the room went completely silent as Janet's orgasm took possession of her voice. I went even harder, small groans rumbling in my chest as I gave her everything I had. She came soon after, with one big exhale and her hands gripping my hair at the roots. I could feel her legs trembling against my shoulder blades.
"Toni..." she finally said. I slowed down significantly and looked her in the eyes. A smiled grew on her face that turned me red in the cheeks.
"Yes?" I responded timidly. I looked down at her now dripping core and licked it one last time, then kissed it gently. Her body lurched a little, and a puff of air escaped her parted lips.
"I don't think I ever said good morning to you, how rude of me."
I crawled up to her eye level and kissed her forehead. "Good morning, Janet Jackson." I got out of bed and put my underwear back on, then went to her bathroom to freshen up a little bit before I headed home. "So are you coming today or what?" I asked as I brushed my teeth with the toothbrush she gave me last time I stayed the night. Through the mirror, I could see her walking up behind me, now clad in the same plush robe from the night before.
"After what you just did to me, it's the least I can do, right?" She kissed my back, and then began to brush her teeth as well in the other sink. I finished up and wiped my mouth.
"Jan, I'm telling you. You don't have to come if you don't want. I'm sure I'll be a wreck. It's not gonna be pretty." I put the rest of my clothes back on, still in a pile on the ground.
"That's why I wanna be there, Toni. Moral support. For you and your sisters."
"Oh, shit," I muttered. I forgot about them. When Tamar sees Janet she is going to act like she ain't never had nothing. I sat down on the edge of her bed and put my shoes on. "Can you and I lay low today? I just don't know how they're going to react to us together, and they're already stressed-"
"I understand." Janet sat next to me.
"And I would just like to apologize for Tamar in advance if she starts acting out when she sees you."
"We've met before, haven't we?"
"Maybe, I don't know. So I'm telling you right now that I'm sorry."
"Thank you for warning me, but I'm sure it won't be a problem-"
My phone buzzed in my pocket. Speak of the devil.
"Yes, Tamar?"
"Hey, Towanda just got in earlier this morning and she's getting a cab straight to the hospital. I'm on my way too." Her voice was back to normal, though it still was missing some of the theatricals that it usually had. We both just needed some rest last night.
"Okay, well I'll be there a little later, maybe a couple hours? Just keep me posted when y'all get there, okay?"
"Okay." Her voice came across unsettled.
"Tamar, just relax. She's in good hands. Just keep on praying."
Janet put her arm around me and rested her head on my shoulder. I could hear Tamar sigh through the receiver.
"Right."
"I'll see you in a little while, okay? Oh, and I'm bringing a good friend along for a little moral support, try not to make a scene okay?"
"Well, who is it?" She inquired skeptically.
"Don't worry about it. Just promise me you'll be cool."
"Yeah, sure." She said, a little distracted.
"I'm gonna let you go. I'll see you in a little bit."
"Alright."
We hung up. I rolled my shoulders out a little, just trying to mentally prepare myself for the day to come. It was easy to tell Tamar that Mommy would be okay, but it was hard to convince my own self.
"Alright, Janet. I'll swing by again and come get you."
"Any particular time I should be ready by?" We made our way down the stairs.
"I'll give you 45 minutes, an hour give or take." I grabbed my purse from the kitchen counter.
"I can do that. I'll see you in a little bit."
"Okay." I headed for the door. Janet reached for my arm and grabbed it gently. I turned around.
"Did I forget something?" I looked around her to see if any of my belongings still lingered.
"You did."
"What is it?"
She pulled me closer and kissed my lips softly. "Good morning, Toni Michelle."
