Copyright 2005 Sept, All Rights Reserved. Chapter 11 For the first time six years, Weston earned a berth in the conference tournament. With the best conference record State claimed the top seed and hosted the tournament. States only losses had been to Weston and a Big Ten school. Weston dropped out of second place and into third with conference losses to Browning State and Troy and tied against Morgan State. Much like the previous trip to State, the Weston woman's soccer team piled into the bus and headed east towards State. The drive was only an hour and half, but it seemed like forever as farm after farm was passed. Occasionally a city would be seen with the strip malls and fast food restaurants dotting the exit ramps. The trip between the universities was considered the black hole of Michigan. No matter how fast a vehicle would travel the arrival time would always been an hour and half after departure. Gwen sat at the window next to her Keegan sat. In the aisle seat Keegan had pulled her knees up pressing on the seat in front of her. A textbook propped up on her knees and headphones were shoved into her ears as the latest Janet Jackson CD played. Images of Keegan being knocked out at State filled Gwen mind. She did not voice her concern of returning to State to Keegan. She shuttered slightly and glanced at Keegan. There had been no mention of headaches or dizziness from her. With the slight fear of Keegan getting hurt, Gwen curled her fingers around in the hair that hung at her lover's neck. Her hair had grown over the four months they had known each other. Gwen had told her that she liked it shorter but she was changing her opinion as the carmel length curled around her collar and spilled to her shoulders. Since the injury, they had grown closer. An invitation to spend Thanksgiving at the Garry's had been extended months ago, but Gwen felt reenergize about the thought when Keegan asked her again a week ago. "Gwen, you are spending Thanksgiving at my house, right?" "I was hoping too. You still want me too?" "If show up with out you, Sarah is going to kill me. Besides, I want you to really meet the family." Keegan said. Gwen looked forward to spending the holiday with the Garry's. Their home lives were completely opposite. Gwen's family was barely a factor in her life. Only her grandfather held a place in her heart. Her parents had been divorced for longer than they had been married. She barely spoke to or saw her father. When she did, he criticized her life and belittled her choices. Her mother on the other hand, was involved with her latest boyfriend and barely acknowledged her only child. The Garry family's outlook on life gave her a fresh view of family. Gwen envied the closeness of the sisters. How with no reason, Keegan could spend an hour on the phone with Ashley about classes, clothes, advice with boys and insight to the discipline imposed by their parents. From the tone of the conversation, Gwen was able to tell which sister, Keegan was talking with. Conversations with Megan were blunt and full of laughter. There was no talk of fashion or boys. The topics usually involved sports. Sports of all kinds and types. Gwen questioned Keegan about Megan's sexuality. Keegan shrugged her shoulders and remarked about how young Megan was. Gwen reminded her of the fact that she had known she was a lesbian very young in her life. "It's a decision that Megan has to make. I don't want to push her. It's not easy to live this lifestyle. I won't deny who I am but I am not going advertise." "As a hypothetical, you could have this great job lots of money and the only catch is that you deny being a lesbian. Would you do it?" "Does it mean I have to hide who I love?" "Yes." "I would not take it. Money is not everything." Keegan said with a smile. "Would you?" "I don't know. " Gwen said with a shrug of her shoulders. "Its possible. I won't say no because I don't know what will happen." "You're not answering the question." "You are right." As the bus rolled into the same hotel Weston had stayed in on the previous trip, Gwen thought about Sandy Creed. The last visit, Sandy Creed showed up in their lives. Since than AJ had done everything to flaunt the fact that she was now seeing Sandy. Gwen visualized the beautiful raven colored haired woman. Her high cheekbones and dark coloring enhanced her Indian ancestry. Her personality was the polar opposite of Keegan's. Sandy was hard and rough. Her questions were direct and her behavior rude. She had no discretion with her actions or words. After the State game, Sandy began to make appearances at Weston to see Allison James. Since her first visit, Sandy had been making regular appearances at the Weston soccer games and weekend events. Keegan avoided any contact. If AJ and Sandy were at a bar or a party, Gwen and Keegan stayed to the opposite side of the room or establishment. One afternoon, Gwen and Keegan were playing a game of pool in the student center. A loud and obnoxious scene began as AJ and Sandy entered the center. AJ immediately focused on the freshman couple. In a challenge, she placed quarters on the table. "I'll play winner." AJ provoked the scene future. "We are done." Keegan said as she hit the eight ball in on purpose declaring Gwen the winner. "Cool, who do I play." AJ smiled as her eyes roamed over Gwen's body. Gwen, who threw her cue on the table and walked out of the student center, did not welcome AJ obvious gaze. "Keegan stay and talk to me!" Sandy called out in the all too familiar voice and tone. Keegan did not look back. She had to run a bit to catch up with Gwen. "I hate her." Gwen hissed out the words taking Keegan off guard with her venomous bite. Keegan turned to see the couple laughing. "Why?" Gwen finally turned and continued as she questioned Keegan. "Why do I let her bother me?" "You guys were together for a long time." Keegan reasoned for Gwen reaction. "Sandy.. I hate her." Gwen confessed. She stepped closer and placed a hand on Keegan's cheek. "I hate her for how she treated you. I can see how she is trying to get to you. " Her eyes were dark and stern. Revealing emotions of turmoil and furry equal to a late fall storm barreling across the great lake. "She is not getting to me. I want nothing to do with her. When I am done with someone, I am done." Keegan tried to easy Gwen's concern. She pulled Gwen in the stairwell off the main hallway. She pressed her body against Gwen's taller frame. Their thighs touched as Keegan wrapped her arms around Gwen's back. Energy instantly flowed between them. Gwen quickly lost the anger that she harbored a few minutes ago. Keegan touched her finger to Gwen's lips. "You are the only one that can get to me." She pulled Gwen's towards her in a powerful embrace. Gwen lowered her head and seized Keegan's mouth with a kiss. Keegan parted her lips as Gwen's tongue probed further. Footsteps on the stairs above interrupted the kindled passion that had just begun. "We are going to get so busted one of these days." Keegan laughed. The attraction for each other was spilling into everyday activities. "We have got to quit mauling each other in public places." "It's not as if you are not a willing partner." Gwen shot back. "I wasn't mauling you." "I did not say I did not like it, but we may have to be a little bit discreet." Keegan separated farther away as two students passed through the stairwell. "That's a very diplomatic statement considering that fact that you had your hand down my jeans in the library." Gwen whispered loud enough for Keegan to hear her. "In the library, you did that to me." Keegan turned beat red. She lowered her head and shook it. "I blame that on you. You make me lose control." Keegan excused her actions with a deflection. Gwen's face radiated as she felt Keegan's hand interlace with hers. They caught each other's eyes but did not speak. Keegan held tight to her hand as the bus rolled to a stop in front of the hotel. "Let's go ladies!" Curtis yelled to the back of the bus as the overhead lights flickered on. "Welcome back to State!" Keegan pushed open the door to another hotel room in another town and to another night on the road without Gwen sleeping at her side. ********************************************* The first game of the tournament pitted Weston against Morgan State. The tie earlier in the season was a bitter pill for Weston to swallow, the team had missed seven shots on goal and should have capitalized. Instead, they tied and faced Morgan State in the first game of the conference tournament. Weston scored early in the first half. On a corner kick from Nicole, Keegan was able to get a strong foot on the ball and bend it into the corner of the net. Much like the match earlier in the season, Morgan held their own against Weston. Late in the second half, misfortune struck as Morgan State pushed the ball towards the Weston goal. Rose screamed out instructions trying to protect her goal. Janet, Carol, Nicole and Mary were on the defense. Rose yelled to Carol to push out on the defense to catch Morgan offside. A Morgan State player propelled the ball forward with a shot on goal. Rose got her hands on the ball. The deflection spun out of her hands and in front of the goal left a dangerous chance of Morgan scoring. Rose scrambled flinging her body on the lose sphere. A flash of a white jersey from the Morgan player who slid hard into the area of the lose ball. The ball shot out to the side and was picked up by a Morgan State forward. Carol tried to cover the open goal, but she was unable to stop the quick shot that whipped pass her. Morgan State blasted out screams and shouts of celebration. When Carol lifted her head, her vision focused on Rose on her side holding onto her knee. Keegan recalled looking up at the scoreboard to see how much time was left in the game. When the screen flashed to the field picture of double zero on the ground holding her knee, her heart dropped. Rose was the backbone of the team. The only senior the leader on and off the field. Nicole immediately was at Rose's side asking her not to move. Josh, the trainer ran out to the field with Curtis close to his side. Carol dropped to her knees. Rabbit stood close but not close enough to be in the way of Josh and his duties. Gwen stood next to Rabbit as they waited for the stretcher and the on site EMT 's to carry Rose off the field. Keegan stood at the centerline and watched. Rose had played in every game during the season. Tara Washington, the back up goalie had played some this season but her time in the net had been limited. As Keegan walked to the sidelines, she noticed Tara took off her warm up suit and began to stretch. Her head was hung low and her breath visible in small puffs under the stadium lights, She ventured to Tara side. The freshman goalkeeper looked nervous. Her brown eyes darted back and forth across the field. "Ready?" Keegan asked in an unassuming tone. "We need you." Keegan finished her thoughts. "Shit." Tara said softly as she nodded her head. "You're ready. Just play your game. We'll be okay." Keegan knew that Tara would be nervous. As the backup for Rose, Tara had accepted the fact that her playing time would be limited. Preparing herself for action, Tara slid her goalie gloves on and smoothed out the bright yellow jersey with a number one in black lettering on the back. She blew out a deep breath and headed on to the field. Keegan knew Tara would do her best to keep Morgan State from scoring. The clock continued to tick down. Weston needed to score once to win. Keegan wiped the sweat off her brow. Perspiration drenched her jersey even in the cold November afternoon. At centerfield, Gwen started play as she and Rabbit kicked the ball back to Keegan. Action of the field was fast and Morgan State's defense played well. Playing the ball forward and back to reset an attack. Gwen got in trouble on the left side of the field and Carol came up to assist. Gwen sent ball back to a safer area. Settling the ball in front of her Carol had some time before the Morgan State defense closed in. Keegan sandwiched between two defenders was able to break free on a diagonal route. Carol sent the ball through the defensive line of Morgan State and Keegan was able to seize the opportunity. Her run carried her from the corner of the box. The goalkeeper charged her, Keegan was able to dribble around the goalkeeper and shoot the ball into the open net sealing the victory over Morgan State. A victory over Great Lakes University on Thursday afternoon launched Weston into the championship game against State on Saturday. **************************************************************** Curtis called a team meeting on Friday afternoon. Arrangements had been made to have a private meeting with the team in a conference room off the lobby area. Curtis entered the room just as the clock hit two. Dressed in his standard Weston University attire, his ball cap perched on his head, the familiar grey, maroon and white colors encased his frame in the form of a zip up nylon jacket and warm up pants. Ginny, the assistant coach had notified the team about the mandatory meeting at breakfast earlier that morning. Following behind Curtis was Rose. Her tall frame leaning on the crutches that flanked each underarm. She took a seat at the front of the room, where she could prop her leg on an empty chair. "Ladies," Curtis began. Keegan cringed at his opening word. After playing a season for Curtis, she had come to realize that when he began a meeting with the word "ladies" usually the news he was delivering would be bad. Keegan looked to Gwen who stood leaning against the wall five feet from where Keegan was sitting. Gwen looked at Rose and than to Keegan. "There is really no way to put this.." He stopped and looked at Rose. "With a great effort to stop a goal the other night, Rose tore her ACL and will not be able to continue in the tournament." A burst of swears filled the air. "Easy...this is hard on everyone. The hardest on Rose." Curtis singled out the red head. Her face was stern and showed no reaction as Curtis continued. She had prepared for the team to receive the news. "Tara has done a spectacular job in goal so I am confident that her play will continue to excel. On that note, the conference meeting was held last night and conference honors were awarded. I am pleased to say that I am certainly very happy to be playing in the tournament this year instead of just a spectator. This team has much to be proud about. You have all surpassed my expectations this year. " Curtis passed the clipboard over to Ginny, the assistant coach. "I don't need to read these because I know who is on this list." Ginny laughed as she hid the clipboard behind her back. "From the first day of practice, this team has shown great potential. I am happy to be part of this team. Conference Honorable Mention.." Ginny smiled. "Nicole Bailey" A stream of claps and congratulations were tossed out. "Freshman, Gwen Learner." Gwen smiled and blushed as her name was called out. Keegan put two fingers in her mouth and blared out a whistle as the rest of the team praised her. "Second team all conference, Shannon Abbott....along with Academic Athlete Honors." Another round of cheers. "Also on second team, Allison James." Hollers and well wishes were called out. AJ looked stunned. She had been named to the conference first team last year. She smiled politely and nodded to her teammates. "The first team we have our backbone and our captain, Rose MacGregor." Ginny stepped aside as Rose got to her feet. She came to stand besides Ginny. Shaking her hand Ginny gave Rose a hug. There was a standing ovation from the team as Rose held up her hand. "I asked Curtis to say a few things before tomorrow. This year has been the best. I could not have asked for a better year or better teammates. My senior year and to make it to the conference championship game. I have played this game for a long time and I will say that this is the best team ever. AJ, Carol, Shannon, and Nicole...you have been with this team, good, bad and ugly. And it was ugly!" The junior teammates laughed. Nicole wiped a tear from her eye. Rose pointed crutch in her direction and told her to stop. Nicole laughed more. "This year has been good...great. We happen to get a few very talented individuals to come and help us along. Although Gwen received Honorable Mention, I want to say that it was an honor to be able to play with you this season. Where is Dailey?" Rose scanned her teammates. Dailey raised her hand as she hid behind Carol. "Thank you for one of the best moments of my career at Weston" An echo of screams mimicked the infamous banshee yell. "Thank you." Rose said. Turning to Keegan who had tears streaming down her face, Rose scolded. "You can't do that." Keegan lowered her head wiped the tears away than looked back at the senior. "Last year a group of us went to a high school regional game. I watched as this amazing player cut through defense and popped a ball off her chest and into the back of the goal in one motion. The goalie never moved, she made an impossible shot without breaking stride. I realized I had never seen a player of that caliber. Little did I know I would actually get the privilege to play on the same team as her. Named the Conference Freshman of the year and First Team All Conference, Keegan Garry. " Keegan got to her feet and gave Rose a hug. She felt dwarfed by Rose's taller frame. "Thank you for giving everything you have every game. I couldn't have asked for a better season." The team applauded and began to chant Weston..Weston..Weston. "Play like champions tomorrow because you are!" Rose finished her speech and returned to her seat. Gwen grabbed her hand on the way by and squeezed it. She than slid into the seat next to Keegan pressing her shoulder against Keegan's upper arm for a moment. "Congratulations" Gwen said as her body leaned in a bit longer than necessary. "Thank you." Keegan said humbled by the words Rose had just spoken. Curtis came back up to the front of the room. He smiled at his team. "We are going to have our hands full with State tomorrow. Our last visit here slightly irritated them." Curtis laughed as chuckles and banshee wails were muttered. "They will test Tara and pressure the defense. We are going to try something different. " Curtis went on to discuss the game plan with his team. ************************************************** Weston huddled at the sideline. Curtis voicing last minute instructions as his right hand rapped against the board he held in his left. When he communicated the game plan, there was an unsettling feeling in the room. As he continued to speak, Keegan placed her elbows on her knees ad leaned forward in amazement. He laid out the plan to beat State, he was taking a risk changing Weston's tactics completely. Rose and Shannon did not seem shocked by the revelation. They seem calm as if they were part of the decision. Rose nodded as Curtis to map out instructions. The focus of the room slowly drifted from Curtis at the dry erase board towards Keegan. As her team's eyes turned towards her and Curtis explained her role in his strategy, a tight knot began to form in her stomach Her breathing became shallow and she thought about what he was expecting her to do. When he was wrapping up the meeting, Curtis turned and as about concerns. Concerns, Keegan thought thousands of them. What he was asking her to do would be taking her out of her element, out of her comfort zone, do go against the grain of how she played all year. Weston had never even thought about playing in this type of formation. They would not practice this formation, she was expected to go in and play as if she had done this a million times before. The strain in her neck and shoulders began to ache. She could feel her head begin to pound. Three years ago, she had run a similar plan while she played on a club team with Shannon. Instantly, the memory brought Curtis's idea to surface. Shannon had played on that team. Shannon Abbott had something to do with the change in the strategy. "Ready" Curtis yelled. He had the team circled together on the sideline for last minute instructions. "Up front get through the defense. Defense keep that ball out of our end. Keep Tara aware of what is going on. They are going to test her quickly. Keegan, play like you know how. You have a job to do. Team on three...one ..two..three" "Team!" The voices carried into the stands of the State stadium. As the whistle blew on the cold November afternoon, the State offensive started play. They pushed and ran the ball towards Weston's goal. Keegan floated towards Tara in the goal. Her role on the field had altered she pointed and shouted to her teammates to watch for the opposition. She focused her attention to the right side of the field as State began to pressure up the left side. Curtis was right, they would be putting pressure on Tara quickly. Taking a few steps towards the right side of the field, Keegan visualized what she would do in this same scenario. Her instinct was to stay towards the backside of the field. Weston's defense was busy trying to clear the ball out. The flow of the game continued. A midfield from State sent the ball to the backside of the field hoping the striker would be crashing the box for a shot on goal. Keegan waited to the last second when the midfield floated the ball to the backside. In a quick burst of speed, she intercepted the pass and continued up the right side of the field. Her move and her location caught the State team off guard. Usually, she had been in the thick of the action. Curtis wanted her to stay back and protect the goal. As a sweeper, her job was to defend the goal and help the defense and the goalie. Play one on one defensive against any opponent that got close the goal. She would not be quarterbacking the offense this game. Instead, she would be playing defense back making sure everyone was covered and picked up. If Shannon had a part in masterminding this game plan, Keegan knew she would be waiting about ten to fifteen yards in front of the State defense. In a full run with the ball in front of her, Keegan felt the pressure of the State player coming up from behind her. She saw Shannon ready to go and Gwen was fading into the middle of the field. Using her power, Keegan was able to send the ball through State defensive set and into the open field behind them. Shannon raced to the ball. As she controlled the sphere, she was able to shoot around the goalie and place the ball in the net. A thunderous cry erupted from the Weston fans that had made their way to the Championship game. Gwen was the first wrap her arm across Shannon shoulder as they celebrated the goal with the rest of the team. Keegan jumped into Shannon's arms. "You are a genius!" Keegan hollered at the top of her lungs. "Easy puppy...we still have over sixty minutes to play. I have a feeling they are not going to go away." As Shannon predicted, State swarmed across the field trying to out maneuver Weston's defensive effort. A flood of State players found Tara shouting directions and Keegan feeling tightness in her chest. Her adrenaline was pumping as State sent the ball a cross the front of the net. Every State player making a run through the box missed the ball as rolled out of bounds a few yards past the goal post. Keegan joined Tara as she set up the goal kick. "How are you holding up?" Keegan asked as she tossed her the ball. "I'll let you know in another twenty minutes." Tara responded. Keegan laughed as Tara set the ball up. "Ready little one?" Keegan watched as Gwen and AJ flanked the side of the field. The offense had been shut down majority of the game. Curtis had known it was going to be a defensive match up. His game plan had worked. Keegan's presence in the backfield had relieved some of the pressure off Carol and the other defenders. State's offense did could not adjust to Weston's defensive scheme even after half time. Frustration on the part of the State forwards surfaced as on a corner kick, Keegan received an elbow to her nose before the ball came into play. The referee immediately saw the infraction and whistled. A penalty and a yellow card were issued to the player. Injury time out was called as Josh came on to the field to try to get the bleeding to stop. The gauze scraped the interior of Keegan's nose as Josh tried to stop the bleeding. Her eyes were watering from the impact. "I hate fucking playing here!" Keegan said as she pinched the bridge of her nose. Her eyes looked at her teammates. "Let's put this one away." Shannon had gathered the team together. Dailey raised an eyebrow as she looked at the clock. "Keegan's getting beat up. Tara has stopped more shots this afternoon than she has all year. What we need is another banshee run." Rabbit smiled the pressure seemed to lift for a moment. "Everyone fall back. We protect first. And score when we get the chance. They will be on the offense. " Keegan wiped the blood off her face. Her nose was throbbing. She could feel the pulse of blood escaping into the gauze. "Let's bring home a championship." AJ yelled to her teammates. "Gwen you have the speed. If you see the opening take it." The game clock counted down, as a minute left. The closer to zero the more enthusiastic the Weston bench became. With the crowd was on its feet as State made another offensive move towards the Weston goal. Her voice horse and barely recognizable, Keegan directed the defense. There would be stoppage time added to the clock. The earlier attempt to run at State's goal fell short as Shannon was called off sides. The call was questionable but arguing would not change the hometown referee's decision. Instead of approaching from the weak side as they had all game, State ran their attack directly at Keegan's position. State focused their players around Keegan. Her disadvantage of not being able to see the field clearly let State slip the ball through the line. The State forward dashed past Dailey leaving only Tara in her way. Her shot deflected by Tara. After the save, Tara scrambled to her feet trying to protect the open net. State's leading scorer picked up the rebound and fired it into the open net. In an instant, Carol took position on the goal line. Defecting the shot with a flick of her head, she saved the game. A deafening roar filled the air, as the whistle blew. Prompting the entire Weston team swarmed Carol at the goal line. They had brought home the championship to Weston University. Tara Washington was named MVP of the tournament with her tremendous effort in goal. At the award ceremony following the game, Rose held the trophy high above her head for the crowd to see. There would be a celebration at Weston University when they got back to campus. Well wisher's lined the street and gathered in the parking lot of the athletic complex, as the bus carrying Weston's championship home from State. Stepping off the bus Carol Edwards held the championship trophy high above her head. There would be a celebration party on campus tonight. ************************************************** "You can offer a hand." Keegan nodded to Dailey as they walked Gwen's drunken butt back to the dorm. "Oh no she is all yours." Janet laughed. "Thanks." Keegan said as she tightened her grip on Gwen's waist. "Gwen, I need you to walk. It's not that far." Dailey walked on the opposite side of Gwen to catch her in case she happens to tumble that way. "Man, I have never seen her like this." Janet said as she tried to straighten Gwen's path. "Almost there." Keegan said as she slipped an arm around Gwen's shoulder. Janet pulled her collar of her warm up jacket up against her cheeks. "Cold." Gwen mumbled as she leaned more of the weight on Keegan. "You're almost there." Keegan assured her. "Way to go ladies!" A handsome guy said as he held the door open for them. "Thanks!" Janet said as she smiled at the tall guy with the crew cut. "Nice you big flirt." Keegan said as she pushed Gwen up the flight of stairs. "Hey, I am as free as a bird. He's a cutie. "Go after the boy, we are going to bed." Keegan commented as she climbed the steps assuring that Gwen was not going to injure herself. "That's a possibility." Janet said as she headed to her room. "Night. Keegan you played a good game." "So did you." Keegan said as she opened her door and slipped Gwen into the room. "Flirting with Dailey?" Gwen mumbled. "I am going to have to watch you." She stumbled into the main area and began to undress. She dropped her as she headed to her bed. She was naked in a matter of seconds. Keegan's gaze steadily watched Gwen's movements. The slight slope of her shoulders, how her flaxen hair hung loosely at the nape of her neck, the small moles on her shoulder and hip. Keegan leaned against the closet door as Gwen turned down the comforter on her bed. Her firm nipples peaked in the open air. Keegan's heart beat faster and her loins felt the familiar surge that stirred in her each time she studied Gwen. Sensing Keegan's quietness, Gwen stood up and faced her. Her blue eyes were smoldering. A quick smile came to Gwen face. "Aren't you going to join me?" Gwen said as she slowly covered the distance between them. Her own heart pounding from the look she was receiving. Her nipples hardened sharply as she grazed them over Keegan's chest. "You're drunk" Keegan's voice was strained. Her desire was overwhelming but she did not want to impose her desire on Gwen. A cold shower would have to be her answer this evening. "Yes and no." Gwen's fingers nimbly made their way to the zipper of Keegan's jacket. Gwen slid the zipper open and slipped the jacket from Keegan's shoulders. Her hands ran the length of Keegan's arms and slid down her chest to the waistband of her pants. Her frustration began to show as she shivered. "Keegan..help me." Gwen said as she pulled Keegan's tee from her waistband. Quickly Keegan wrapped her arms around Gwen and covered her mouth with a kiss, she backed her towards the bed. She kissed back on to the mattress. Standing next to Gwen, she could see the quick breaths that Gwen was taking the rise and fall of her abdomen. Keegan pulled her tee shirt and sports bra off in one motion. She swiftly kicked off her warm up pants and under clothes. Heat was permeating from her body she wanted Gwen. Gwen reached out a hand to her. "Come here." Keegan did not need any further prompting as climbed on top of Gwen matching up against the length of her body. Their bodies contoured against one another. Keegan nuzzled at Gwen's neck and her hand gently cupped the firm breast. She heard the gentle steady breathing of Gwen's body underneath her. Lifting her head she noted the closed eyelids and lazy smile across Gwen's lips. She touched her cheek with a finger and rolled off of her wrapping her arms around the blonde and spooning her from behind. She closed her eyes and willed her body to calm down. There was a loud pounding at the door. Keegan felt the nudge at her side." You're snoring!" Gwen's voice called out. Keegan cuddled closer the to the warm under her cheek. She had fallen asleep after an hour of frustration. Easing her body to state of normalcy. The pounding at the door continued. Grabbing the comforter off the opposite bed, Keegan wrapped it around her nude body. She padded across the foot her bare feet echoing every one of the twenty feet. Pissed was an understatement. She glanced at the red digits that glowed from the clock, 3:45...what the hell. Keegan stumbled as she opened the door. With a small groan, Keegan opened the door. Sandy slumped against the wall drunk and disarrayed. Her mind went spinning, how many times had she found Sandy Creed at her door after a night of parting. A slowly seductive smile surfaced as Sandy reached to grab the blanket covering Keegan. Her purpose was evident as she wrapped her fingers in Keegan's tawny locks pulling her lips down on hers. Keegan was caught off guard by the quick movement of the inebriated woman. Her other hand pulled at the comforter that Keegan was holding against her body. "Why the hell are you here?" Keegan yelled as she abruptly pulled from Sandy's drunken reach. Keegan reached out and grabbed Sandy by the wrist pinning her against the hallway wall. Confusion registered in Sandy's dark eyes as she tried to free her wrist without that much effort. "Let go Keegan!" Sandy said as she finally jerked her wrist free. "What the hell are you doing?" Keegan asked. The hair on her arms stood straight in goose bumps at the sound of Sandy's voice. "I miss you. I miss the way you make me feel. I want you. You look tasty!" She reached out and ran her finger across Keegan's exposed shoulder where the comforter had fallen. Keegan held the blanket fast to her chest. She did not want to stand in the hall naked or expose herself to Sandy Creed. Sandy grabbed covering in Keegan's clenched fist. Again she reached to pull Keegan closer for a kiss. "Dump that blonde and come with me." Years of listening to Sandy's tainted words had taken its toll. Keegan braced her free hand on Sandy's chest. Pushing her back which such a force that Sandy lost her balance and fell. "Why? Why the fuck are you here?" Keegan tried to rationalize why after a year, Sandy would try to slide back into her life. She had Gwen. Keegan looked behind her. Gwen stood in the center of the room with her robe on. "Leave me alone!" Keegan's temper flared as she shouted at Sandy as she slammed the door close. She placed a demanding passionate kiss on Gwen's lips. Gwen knees buckled at the kiss. Keegan felt her anger melt away as she kissed Gwen. The frustration of having Sandy in her life was taking its toll on her sanity. She softened her kissed as her anger molted away. Her heart and mind filled with the love she felt for Gwen. Keegan's lips slowly pulled back from Gwen's. "Don't ever doubt my feelings for you." Keegan's blue eyes pieced Gwen's soul. She took Gwen by the hand. Dropping the comforter to the floor, Keegan wrapped both of the arms around Gwen's waist. She dropped to her knees and held her face to Gwen's womb. Scars of her bad relationship and being used had been torn open. Experiences she wanted to forget. Experiences that still made her not trust relationships. She wanted to feel the warmth, the care and the comfort she received from Gwen. Lightly, Gwen ran her fingers over Keegan's face and through her thick tresses. She could feel the tears being shed. She murmured softly to her lover. She loosened the hold that Keegan had on her as she lowered to her knees. Never once did she break the touch of her fresh against Keegan's. Her heart was rupturing from all the pain, which surfaced before the dawn's light. Gwen cradled Keegan face in her hands. She stared into the deep ice mirrors of Keegan's eyes. She wanted to take the pain away. "I love you. " Gwen kissed her gently as she lifted Keegan's lips to meet her own. "Let me show you how much." A flicker of desire sparkled in Keegan's eyes. Gwen dropped her hands to the tie on her robe. Leisurely, Gwen slipped the silky material open revealing her tanned skin and bountiful breasts. Her eyes never left Keegan's but as soon as Keegan's gaze lowered to her chest, Gwen felt a rush of blood to her groin and her nipples ached for her touch. Gwen grasped Keegan's hand and bought it to the heaviness of her breast. Keegan's thumb circled the rose color nub. With her eyes dancing over Gwen's face, she felt the reassurance she was looking for. Keegan felt the heat rush to her limbs as Gwen removed her robe. She didn't want to hurt. She wanted to put the past behind her she wanted only Gwen. Her fingers burned as it cupped Gwen's breast. She searched Gwen's face for the want and the love she desired. In the dim light of the small dorm room, Keegan found what she had been searching for. Gwen's hand caressed her face and traced a trail down her neck to the peak of her hardened nipples. Leaning forward, Gwen placed her lips on the hardened nipples kissing tugging and caressing. Keegan 's quick intake on breath encouraged the exploration of her palm against the twin. The fullness of her breast filled Gwen's hand as she pushed Keegan down on the fallen comforter. Her hand continued to trail across Keegan's body to the flat plane of Keegan's abdomen grazing her fingers in the trimmed downiness. Lifting her head from Keegan's chest, she caught her fingers at the back of Keegan's nape, she pulling her close to capture her lips again. Keegan went to speak. Gwen touched her finger to her lips. Keegan nipped at her finger. A smile came across Gwen's face. She pushed her thigh between Keegan parted legs. Holding her weight on one arm and her hip, she hovered over Keegan. Lowering her head, she nipped at Keegan's neck and kissing her exposed shoulders and running her tongue over the distinct bone of her collar. Keegan's finger's dug into Gwen's loose golden hair. In the moonlight she could see the intensity in Gwen eyes, a burning desire, a need, a want. Gwen wanted her. Gwen's mouth found her nipples again. Keegan pressed her head closer. Her hips lifted off the floor trying to push her body into Gwen's. Gwen answered her back by rocking her pelvis into Keegan's parted thighs. "Ohh.." Keegan groaned out she knew she was close to exploding. Gwen increased her rhythm. Gwen's mouth followed the trail blazed by her hand minutes ago. She pressed her mouth against Keegan's abdomen and smiled as her kisses and touches tickled Keegan. Gwen laughed against Keegan's abdomen as she continued. She could feel the wetness against her thigh as she slipped lower along Keegan's body. "You have a great body" Keegan quivered at full huskiness of Gwen's voice as she lowered her head between Keegan's thighs. The scent of musk filled her nostrils and increased her desire. Her lips wrapped around the pink hood as she tasted the sleek member. "Jesus!" Keegan screamed as Gwen mouth touched her. The ultimate pleasure was climaxing as Gwen's tongue dance through her valley, lapping and stoking. She pressed Gwen head closer as she lifted her hips when her tongue entered deep into her cavity. Keegan felt the explosion fill her body as her pelvis convulsed and her thighs squeezed against Gwen's head holding her tight. She floated into you euphoria as her body sung. Delicate feathery touch crossed over her nipple as she slowly roused from the depths of her orgasm. Gwen's fingers moved slowly tracing lightly across her chest to and fro. Under her head she could feel the softness of Gwen's breast. Gwen's other arm was wrapped firmly around her waist. Turning slightly, Keegan place a small kiss on Gwen's breast. "Hey, look who's awake." Gwen's voice was soothing. Her light touches continued. "How long was I out for?" "Ten minutes tops...feel better?" "I feel great." Keegan turned to face Gwen. Her palm pressed against Gwen's cheek. "I love you." *********************************************************************** I would like to thank everyone for the feedback.
