New Familiarity

Jasper was right, getting a taxi home was easy.

I can barely open the door as Elise's hands reach to grope my tits from behind me. Finally we gain entry and my girlfriend stumbles in behind me, how much did she drink? No more than me, surely?

"Come on gorgeous, I want you in the... Stairs... Room." Elise giggles, making her way upstairs. I follow close behind, making sure she doesn't fall, and guiding her through my door. Elise immediately kicks her shoes off, and pulls her top over her head, wobbling as she turns back to me. "You might have to go on top..." She admits. Yeah, something tells me that's not happening tonight.

I pull her in to a hug, partly for affection, partly to stop her falling over. "Let's just get you to bed, yeah?" I decide, leading her to the edge.

"But... I don't want you to get bored of me... I thought you liked my body." She whimpers. Her words make my soul ache, she always seems like the strong one, sometimes I forget she's as new to this as me.

"I do, I just like it better when you're in it." I answer. "We've got loads of time for sex, and I mean a lot, but right now I just want to look after you." I reassure her helping her take her skirt off. She removes her bra and smiles at me.

"This is why you're Mon Lapin. Always there when I need you." She explains. That girl really wanted a rabbit as a kid, huh? She lays down on the bed and pulls the duvet over herself. I was going to offer her a nightshirt, but it looks like she's decided she's comfy as is. I take my dress off and hang it next to my wash basket, throwing my leggings inside with my own bra, before replacing them with a long white T-shirt. I take my place in bed and cuddle up to Elise. My libido is disappointed, but my heart couldn't be any more full.

I'm awoken the following morning with a moist pressure on my lips. Either Elise is kissing me or she's sat on my face... Not sure if I mind which. It turns out to be the former as I open my eyes to be greeted with her radiant, if pale, face.

"Did you turn down sex with me to get me to go to sleep or am I mis-remembering that?" She asks me, her hand resting on my chest.

"You were in no fit state to do anything, I like when we have sex, not just me." I wave off her idolisation. "How're you feeling?"

Elise sighs and rests her head on her hand. "My head hurts, you don't have any painkillers, do you?" I chuckle as I kiss her on the forehead and get out of bed, reaching for my emergency drawer. I pull out a silver strip of tablets and hand them to Elise.

"Those things damn near make me forget about period cramps, should take care of a headache easy, I'll get you some water." I confirm, heading towards the door door. I'm not used to treating hangovers, but water and tablets feel normal. right? I head downstairs, retrieving a glass from the cupboard and filling it with cold water, doesn't look like anyone else is up yet, makes it easier I suppose. I barely finish my thought as I hear the front door shut.

I should react with some understanding, but the sight before me is too good to pass up. "Ooh, did someone stay out all night?" I ask a tired looking Rouge, still wearing the dress from dinner, her make-up smudged and her hair ever so slightly out of place, like she's had to fix it. "Go on, who was the lucky guy?" I continue, my sister's eyes are full of irritation and annoyance.

"Oh, which one? The orgy got a little out of hand, must've been 300? Maybe 400 dicks I sucked, who remembers? That good enough?" She snarls back at me, heading up the stairs.

"Fine, tell me when you're ready." I give in, I'll get a name out of her later, for now I know a girl with a hangover that needs tending to.

I return to my room to see a still topless Elise going through her phone. "You want a t-shirt or anything?" I ask, placing the water on the bedside table.

"And deprive you of the view?" She smirks mischievously. "I'm perfectly comfortable, if anything, you're wearing too much." I roll my eyes at her with a smile, before acquiescing to her demand, and removing my t-shirt.

I get back into bed, and pull her in until her head is resting on my shoulder. "What you looking at?" I ask her.

"Skye sent me a link to the event page for the band, they're playing again next week." She explains, scrolling through.

I snort at her interest. "Seems like you barely survived the last visit, should I be worried about a certain pink-haired rocker?" I joke. Sort of joke. Okay, I get jealous too.

"After last night? I'd say you've earned enough points that I'm not looking elsewhere." Elise grins, planting a kiss on my shoulder. "Honestly, I was thinking Trish might like her... Or her brother... Depends on the day with her, I guess."

"Aah, got dreams of playing matchmaker?" I chuckle.

"It's purely selfish, those two are the only other eligible girls we know, if I pair them off you're stuck with me." She laughs back. "Seriously though, couldn't you see them together?"

"One girl who's only looking for sex and another who's saved herself for years? I dunno, Rob might be more her speed." I think out loud.

Elise seems to ponder this for a minute. "Okay, how about we bet on it? If we introduce them, and she hits it off with Skye, I win, if she likes Rob, you win?" She asks.

Feels like Trish wins regardless, fuck it, why not? "Alright, you've got to tell me the stakes first though. Loser pays for date night?" I ask.

Elise's evil grin grows. "I was thinking something a bit more fun." She reveals ominously. "What's your dirtiest fantasy?"

Well that came out of nowhere... What am I talking about, we're half-naked in bed, after dying to have sex and not being able to last night, of course her mind went there. "I... Don't know honestly, I've never really had one." I admit. "I guess maybe roleplay or something? I definitely wouldn't mind seeing you a a naughty schoolgirl."

"Oh, but I am." She winks to me. "Okay, if you win, I'll dress up for you, the outfit, hair, whole deal." She offers. Well, I'm not going to say no to that... And she knows that

"Seems like a deal in my favour..." I reply suspiciously, "What do you get if you win?"

"Well, your fantasy is very sweet, mine's not." She admits with an innocent smile, before turning to whisper in my ear. "if I win, I'm going to get a strap-on and fuck you until you come." And there's the kink...

"You know, if you wanted to try more toys, you could have just asked." I smirk at her.

"It's more the whole package than just the ass part, it's the power, I like the idea of you worshipping me like a goddess. Like I'm having you any way I want." She giggles. "But good to know the bet's on."

I laugh at her insistence. "Fine, though, for the record, I treat you like a goddess anyway." I counter. "Be honest, you're just still horny from last night, aren't you?"

She tuts at my detective work, but doesn't deny it. "If I didn't feel sick as a dog, I'd have woken you up with a kiss somewhere very different." She admits. "It makes the headache worse." She takes another drink of water, hoping for the best.

"I can tell, this is the most you've talked about sex... Like, ever." I point out. "How about this... We get some breakfast, go for a walk, and if you feel better when we get back..." I nudge her suggestively. Looking after her and setting her up for sex, I'm the best at being a girlfriend, I should go pro.

This puts some life back in her. "Fine, but I need a shower first, borrow some clothes?" She asks sweetly.

After we're cleaned and clothed in T-shirts and sweatpants, we head downstairs to see what we can whip up in the kitchen. Which gives me the best idea, I sit the patient down at the table and demonstrate my world-famous... Or at least house-famous, pancakes. Mum emerges during my cooking, dressed for work.

"Morning girls." She announces, grabbing a glass of water. "I've got to go into the shelter, emergency vet visit." She explains, rushing to get her bag together.

"It's cool, we're just going to go for a walk in a bit anyway." I answer, not taking my eyes off my task.

"Okay, well, check on your sister when you get back, would you? I heard her through the door, she sounds sick." Mum requests. "I'll see you later!" And with that she hurries out the door. Breakfast is served, and Elise looks at me like I just saved her life, which pleases my inner chef.

"Do we have to go for a walk?" Elise pleads. "I feel gross, I don't want people to see me."

I'm having none of it. "You need some fresh air, it'll be 10 minutes, maximum." I convince her. We leave the dishes in the sink, grab our coats, and head on our journey. The chilly air definitely wakes me up, and, like I planned, Elise's face is full of colour again, we even manage to avoid seeing anyone which relaxes her immensely.

Finally we make a welcome return to the house. "I need a lay down, fancy a nap?" Elise offers as we head up the stairs. As if I would be against more cuddling.

"Yeah, I just need to check on Rouge, meet you in there." I answer, heading past my door to Rouge's and knocking. No response. She did look tired, maybe she's asleep? I promised Mum, I'll just stick my head in.

The vision in the darkened room is haunting. I look to Rouge's bed for her sleeping form, instead I only see the back of her head as she kneels on the floor, her face buried into the bottom of a familiar naked body, and a familiar face.

"Trish?" I gasp, drawing attention to my appearance. My friend's face jolts into awareness, who then yelps in fear. Much quieter than me, who in turn screams the house down as I slam the door shut.

Writer's Note: So, we're finally at the end of Act 1... Sort of. See, I planned this story (Mostly. Sort of.) up until the first sex scene, I originally didn't think I'd want to continue after, but, here we are. The problem is that means I have to organise my plans for new story arcs, which takes time, so I kind of need to find time to do it, which is hard to do while the story's still going forwards, but I've built up a good pace, so I don't want to just stop for a few days. Catch 22.

My solution is the "Rouge Arc," I've left a lot of Rouge's later story open, so I'm going to go back and fill in the blanks from Rouge's perspective, which is something I'm really excited about, it gives me a chance to flesh out that character and take time to plan out Scarlet's next steps. I've written the first couple of chapters, and if you're a fan on my style of characterisation, humour, and smut you're in for a treat. I get that this could be considered filler, but the good news is it's only about 5-6 chapters long, so regular service will be resumed early next week.

Rouge chapters will be tagged with [RA] and there'll be the option to skip it once it's done. Thanks for bearing with me, and I hope you've enjoyed the story so far ^_^
