Blooming Romance

Mae sips cold coffee when the bell splits the silence. She opens the door to Kimora, arms full of lilies she swears she didn’t order. Kimora flushes, apology already forming: the flowers are meant for Mae and her girlfriend’s anniversary. Mae laughs once, short, sharp. They split two weeks ago, she forgot to cancel. Kimora’s eyes widen like she dropped a plate. Mae shrugs it off—honest mistake. But Kimora won’t leave it bruised. She swipes a pen, scratches the old card, writes her own name instead. The bouquet is from her now. Mae’s protest dies behind her teeth. She’s always the one delivering flowers, never the one getting them. Kimora stays firm; the gift is hers to give. Their eyes catch, hold too long. The air gets thinner. Kimora steps forward, takes Mae’s wrist. The kiss is sudden, greedy, tongues meeting like they’ve waited months. Lilies hit the floor. Mae’s robe slips, Kimora’s fingers dragging down the skin underneath. Door still open, Mae doesn’t care. They stumble inside, mouths locked, hands already pushing fabric away. Kimora bites the curve of Mae’s breast, sucks hard enough to leave color, then drops to her knees. Mae’s head knocks the wall. Fingers hook her panties down, Kimora’s tongue slides in hot and quick. Mae’s thighs tremble. She drags Kimora up by the collar, shoves her onto the couch, yanks her jeans open. Two fingers push past Kimora’s slick folds, curling deep until the other woman arches and curses. Clothes scatter. Sweat-slick skin, panting breaths, the smell of lilies mixing with sex. Mae rides Kimora’s thigh, grinding hard until she comes with a broken moan. They roll, Kimora on top now, teeth marking Mae’s shoulder while she grinds down on her hand. Orgasm rips through both, tight and shaking. When they finally slow, Mae’s lipstick is smeared across Kimora’s mouth and petals cling to damp skin.
