Awakenings a.k.a. Save The Planet, Share Some Water

Part 1

Sara woke up, her arms still wrapped around the strawberry blonde. As she turned to face the alarm clock on the nightstand, she noticed it was five in the afternoon, which meant there were four hours left until both of the women had to get back to work.

That left her enough time to lie back, and keep Catherine in her safe embrace.

Studying the older woman's peaceful face, Sara thought back of all that had passed between them during the last few hours. She never would have guessed things to go that quick…not that she regretted it, though.

Thinking back specifically at the last few hours, a smile came on to her face. She had been with women before, but it had never been anything like this. A feeling of total bliss settled in her entire body.

As she placed a soft kiss on the smaller woman's forehead, she saw Catherine's lips curl up into a smile.

"Good morning," Catherine started, as she rolled on top of Sara "Or more accurate, good afternoon."

Sara's hand reached for Catherine's face, and cupped her cheek. "Good afternoon to you too." Tracing the delicate lips of the strawberry blonde, and feeling the other woman's weight on her, Sara could feel arousal shooting through her entire body again.

"Hmmm," The blonde purred as she nuzzled Sara's neck. "This really is a nice way to wake up"

"Yeah it really is" Sara said, staring hungrily at Catherine's lips.

She captures those lips in a fierce kiss, her tongue grazing along the older woman's bottom lip –begging for entrance. Catherine opened her mouth willingly, starting to dominate the brunette's tongue with her own.

As they broke off their kiss to get the much needed oxygen, they kept staring into each other's eyes in silence. After a few minutes Sara was the first to speak up "This morning was…" she searched for the words that would convey everything that she had felt when she had been so intimate with Catherine.

"Amazing?...Wonderful?…Fantastic?…Too good to be true?" Catherine said while placing small kisses along Sara's jaw-line.

"Yeah," the brunette muttered. "All of the above." was the last thing before she pulled the smaller woman closer and their lips connected once again.

"Well," Catherine started after the kiss ended, "It was good indeed, and thankfully it was also true." A smirk came onto her face as she noticed Sara's face showing a deep shade of red.

She crawled off Sara's well-toned body, and placed her head on her shoulder. Her hand started tracing circles on the brunette's abdomen –causing goose bumps to appear on the path she had just traced.

For the next few minutes they just stayed like that –completely silent, and enjoying each other's touches.

Suddenly Sara broke this silence, and got out off the bed. Catherine looked up at her –eyebrows raised at this sudden action of the younger woman, worry noticeable in those blue pools.

But as she saw Sara's face displaying nothing but affection, she knew she had nothing to worry about.

Sara held out her hand "Shower with me?" she asked.

Catherine didn't need much time to think about the brunette's request, and was crawling out of the bed in no time. She grabbed the offered hand, and was led out of the bedroom.
