It was a morning in mid-June, about 10:30 am. Deleiah Sat on Nia's bed; they kissed deeply. They had been in this deep lip lock since Deliah got to Nia's crib. Deliah broke the kiss, looked deep into Mia's eyes and said, "Baby, are you ready?"
"Yeah!" said Nia a little nervously, "what do you want to do?"
"All you got to do is lick pussy and I promise that's all I'll do to you." Deleiah said removing her boxers. She leaned her back against the headboard and Nia got down between her legs. Nia stared at the wet pussy unsure of what to do.
"What's wrong," asked Deleiah.
"I...I.. Don't really know what to do." Nia said shyly and a little embarrassed.
"There's no wrong way of doing it boo, just lick whereever you want," said Deliah. "Trust me, it'll still feel good to me."
With that Nia began tapping at her pussy, licking up the tangy juice. Delieah moaned every time Nia's tongue brushed over her hard swollen clit. Nia them put her tongue deep inside Delieah and moved it all around. Nia thought this would surely make Delieah cum but Delieah wanted more attention on her clit. "Hey baby," Delieah said, "Just keep your tongue on my clit." Nia moved her tongue up to her clit and licked and sucked on it until Delieah came. Her cum flowed into Nia's mouth and she swallowed it down.
Nia kissed Delieah in the mouth before saying, "Was it good?"
"Yeah, It was coo," Delieah said knowing she'd had better. "Now lay down girl so I can do you." Nia did as she was told and Delieah took off her panties. She ate her pussy with all the skill she had making Nia scream and moan until she cam sweetly in her mouth.
Meanwhile, Tony waited on the front steps of Nia's apartment building smoking a square. "Damn, I wish Dee would hurry the fuck up," Tony mumbled to herself. Shortly after saying this, Delieah a.k.a Dee, came outside. "Finally!"
"Hey you know these thangs take time," said Dee as the two walked down the street.
"I'm saying, you ain't gonna give me details?" asked Tony.
"I was doing what I do best you know, I'm surprised you ain't hear her scream from out here."
"Yeah ok. Now you know all the girls say nobody can do it like Tony."
"Yeah that's what you think."
"So where we going?"
"To my crib real quick. I gotta get some money, pass the cancer stick, Joe"
"Hey, Joe, you got some gum, cause I was thinking about going to Coco's crib later?"
"Damn, you know that girl got you sprung?"
"So what, she love me and I love her. Besides, you knew you in love wit' old girl"
"Who?"
"You know Old girl that you be sweatin' when ever we go down to the park."
"Oh you mean Tammy Nigga' I aint sprung on her. There's to many chicks in this world to be sprung over jus' one."
"Yeah, ok. It seems she all you talk about and you be all over her when she around."
"Man suck my dick." An old woman coming in their direction looked at Dee like she was crazy. "The fuck you lookin' at you white bitch!" Dee spat at the old woman as she walked by.
"Damn, Joe. Calm down. IT wasn't that serious," said Tony.
"Anywayz like I was saying, no body can get me sprung."
"I think it's about time you settle down wit’ one girl"
"Nigga, bye. I ain't no one woman girl. I got so much love to give."
"Man, what you know about love? Love shouldn't even be in your vocabulary at the rate you goin'."
"Tony, man, you know you was just like me before you got wit Coco's ass. I don't know why you on this wit me now."
"Cause I realized some things."
"Like what."
"Like I realized hoes go feelings to. Like that bitch you just got done suckin' on, do you know ho fucked up she's gonna be when she sees another hoe hanging off your arm?"
"She knows we not goin' out."
"But you took her virginity."
"No I didn't"
"Huh?"
"I didn't cause you remember what happened last time."
"Oh yeah," Tony started to laugh
"That wasn't funny"
"At the time it wasn't that shit was so messed up."
"Yeah. How was I supposed to know there would be that much blood.”
They walked up to Delieah's bedroom after walking into her house. "What do you got?" Asked Tony.
"Some money. You know how I hate walking around without money." said Delieah digging threw her top drawer. She pulled out a brown paper bag and dumped a fat roll of money out.
"Where did you get all that?" Tony asked.
"Remember last night, when me you and Missy took that short cut through that alley after the party?"
"Yeah!"
"Well I saws this kitten by a dumpster and you know how I like cats, so I went over to try and catch it but it ran away and that's when I saw the paper bag."
"What made you pick it up?"
"I don't know. Something told me to look in it."
"Why didn't you tell us then?"
"Now you know Missy. She would have pulled some shit and took it."
"That's true,"
Dee took a couple of dub bills from the roll and handed some to Tony.
"Thanks kid, says Tony, "Hey lets stop at the store so I can pick something up for Coco.
"Oh god. You and that girl," groaned Dee
De put the bag back under a pile of boxers and closed the drawer. As they left out, Dee's mother said. "What time will be back?"
"I don't know maybe midnight." said Dee
"I really wish you wouldn't stay out so late but ok."
"So where you want to go?" Dee asked as they left the house.
"Well since you got to go to your girls house ... said Tony.
"Oh god. I don't feel like going over there," said Dee.
"Why not? I waited for you."
"Now it's not that I just don't feel like putting up with Kandy and you know she's going to be over there."
"So. It's not my fault you and my cousin don't like each other. Y'all know you're in love"
"Hell now. Don't get me confused with you and my cousin."
When they got to Coco's apartment building Tony yelled up to here window. "Hey Coco, Tony called
"What?" yelled Coco looking down out of the window, Kandy was right besides her.
"Open the door or at least come outside." As Coco went to do that, Kandy said hi Dee Dee"
"Don't call me that." Dee said getting man already
Tony and Dee went up to Coco's crib and as soon as Tony got in the door, she and Coco went at it.
"Oh god, go in the bedroom with that mess," said Dee.
Tony and Coco ran into the bedroom, slamming the door behind them. Dee sat on the couch and flipped through a magazine. She and Kandy sat in silence for a little while. The only sound that could be heard was the giggling and bumping sounds coming from Coco's room.
"So Dee, said Kandy breaking the silence
"So Kandy," said Dee a little irrititated
"Why must you be so mean to me?"
"Why you so annoying?"
"Why you got to be like that?"
"Why you all in mine?"
"Why you so secretive?"
"Why you got to ask so many questions? Go away!"
"Awww....... Dee Dee," Kandy come over and sat on her lap, you know you want me around" She said as she ran a hand over Dee’s neatly done corn rolls.
"I don't like you and I told you not to call me that"
"You don't like me? Oh well it's your loss." Kandy got up and bent over looking at some CDs. Dee found herself looking at her ass. Meanwhile in the next room, Tony and Coco lay half naked on the bed in each others arms kissing.
"Mmmmmmmmm..........Tony I missed you." Coco said breaking the kiss.
"Me too even though I just saw you yesterday." said Tony
"Tony, do you love me as much as I do?"
"How much do you love me?"
"More than words can say."
"I think no, I know I love you more that that."
Coco felt tingly all over. Tony could say the simplest things but would mean so much more to Coco. Now that' s love.
"Coco, if it was possible, would you have my kids," said Tony, Coco laughed
"I'm serious," Tony said.
"Of course I would," said Coco
Tony unsnapped Coco's bra and played with her tits as she kissed and licked the spot on Coco's neck. Coco badly wanted Tony to take her nipples into her mouth so she moved Tony's head down to them. Tony circled one nipple with the tip of her tongue and sucked it until Coco had her do the other. That allways got Coco the wettest. Tony slipped her hand into Coco's panties and played with her wet pussy. She rubbed Coco's clit with slippery fingers while she continued to suck Coco's warm syrup flowed out from within her womanhood, whimpering quietly saying.
"Tony I love you"
Back in the living room, Kandy and Dee watched BET.
"Hey, you ever thought5 about being a background dancer Dee?" asked Kandy.
"Yeah, why you ask?"
"I don't know. Cause you real pretty and you got the body for it."
"Really?"
"No."
"Then you say that? I swear I can't stand you." Dee said laughing.
Meanwhile in Coco's bathroom Tony and Coco softly caressed each others wet naked bodies as the hot water beat down on them. They passionately kissed, loving the taste of each others tongue. Coco fondled Tony’s hard nipples as she licked Tony's sensitive ear she then bent down a little and licked Tony's nipple.
"Fuck that," Tony said as she pushed Coco's head down lower. Coco sank down to her knees. Tony put her foot on the side of the tub. Coco flicked her tongue over Tony's clit making her groan. Tony softly rubbed the sides of Coco’s face. The leg Tony stood on began to shake as she came, she moaned loud enough for Kandy and Dee to hear. Tony became weak and melted to her knees. Coco wrapped her arms around Tony's neck and Tony put her forehead against Coco's and looked into her eyes. No words had to be spoken then
"Just breath," Coco said kissing Tony's full lips.
Back in the living room, Kandy and Dee got into an argument over something stupid.
"I don't care what you say Missy Elliot do look good for a fat chick." said Dee.
"Get the fuck out of here.” said Kandy."You tellin' me you would rather fuck her then Lil' Kim?"
"I ain't say all that. I'm just sayin'."
"You got weird taste in females."
"And you don't?"
"What you talkin' 'bout?"
"You know you like them white bitches."
"That ain't true."
"Why you lying?"
"I'm not."
"Tell the truth did you or did you not say you don't like black females because they be on some games."
.".............Ok so I did say that, but they do. You a REAL good example."
"That don't mean they all like that. Plus, white girls be on some shit too. Crazy bitches. They be on that whips and chains shit. Nipple clamps and shit."
"Huh? What you talking about? How you know all this?"
"Look all you need to know is I tried a couple of white girls before and we'll just leave it alone from there."
"Damn. But that don't mean they all like that."
"Well the ones I was wit' were on that."
"Maybe you just haven't found the right one."
"My point exactly. Maybe you just haven't found the right female."
"What the hell are you guys arguing about?" asked Tony coming into the room followed by Coco.
"Nothing, man. Where we goin'?" asked Dee.
"To the park. Lets go." said Tony.
When they arrived at the park, the place was packed with teenagers with nothing else to do with their time. Tony and Dee went to say hi to their friends while Coco and Kandy did the same.
"Hey, Dee." Tony began. "Look there go Tammy."
Dee's looked in the direction Tony was pointing in and saw Tammy walking in her direction. Her heart stopped. Tammy was so beautiful and so stunning; Dee couldn't help but want to feel weak.
"Hi, Dee." said Tammy.
"Hey." Said Dee sweating a little. Never had she been this nervous to talk girl before. The last time she reacted like this is when she was a virgin. But anyways Tammy took Dee's hand and led her under a shaded tree to talk.
"So what's been up with you? I haven't seen you since last Saturday." Said Tammy.
"Well you know I be. I was busy." Said Dee.
"I see. How many girlfriends you got now?"
"None at the moment. Just messin' around and stuff."
"Maybe you need to consider getting someone steady. You know, its not very healthy these days to be sleeping around like that."
"You sound like my mom"
"What? She said the same thing?"
"Yeah"
"Oh, so she knows about you?"
"Yeah."
"Is she cool with it?"
"Yeah she is."
"Maybe I should meet her one day."
"But then you'll look like my girlfriend."
"And what's wrong with that? Don't you want to be more than just friends?"
They looked in each other's eyes. Dee badly wanted to kiss those pretty glossy lips. The moment was interrupted when one of Tammy's friends called her.
"Look I gotta go." Said Tammy. "Are you coming to that beach party tonight?"
"Yeah, only if your there." Said Dee.
"Good. We'll talk some more then. Peace." With that Tammy walked away to meet her friends. Dee stared at her ass as Tammy switched it walking down the street with her crew. Just then Dee noticed her heart was beating so hard she was a little out of breath. She wasn't sure what was wrong but Dee sure didn't like it. Was she falling in love like her weak friend Tony? Dee shook her head trying to clear her mind. Yeah, What was going on? Never had Dee felt this way and it was starting to freak her out.
That same afternoon Coco and Kandy went their own way while Tony and Dee did their thing as well. Soon though it was night. At around 11:00pm, Tony and Dee decided to go to that big beach party. It was a perfect night for the cops not to be on patrol because all kinds of crazy things were going on: people were fucking behind some rocks over here, some kids getting high over there as Urban music filled the late night air.
"Damn this place is crazy" said Dee looking around.
"Yeah you know those College kids kick some wild parties for sure. " said Tony. "Hey there go Coco. I'll be right back." Tony ran off in Coco’s direction. Of course Dee shook her head seeing her pussy whipped friend run off after her future wife. As Dee stood there wondering where she went wrong with Tony, Tammy came up and tugged on her arm.
"Hey" Dee said happy to see Tammy, looking as beautiful as ever.
"Come walk down the beach with me" said Tammy holding on to Dee's hand.
They walked until the were in a empty area on the beach. The lake breeze softly brushed over them, lightly chilling their skin. This made Tammy shiver.
"Baby you cold?" asked Dee.
"A little." said Tammy.
"Don't worry I'll keep you warm. "Dee stood behind Tammy and wrapped her strong arms around her shoulders as they looked over the dark lake. The full moon beautifully reflected off the rippling water. The moment was perfect to romance in.
"Now earlier at the park" Dee began "what did you mean by not minding my mother thinking you’re my girlfriend?"
"Don't be silly, Dee. You know what I meant." said Tammy.
"Maybe we should go together. We'll make a cute couple don't you think?"
"Ms. Deleiah Huxley, are you asking me out?"
"Maybe."
Tammy turned and wrapped her arms around Dee's neck.
"What do you mean by 'Maybe'?" asked Tammy looking deep into Dee's dark brown eyes.
Dee kissed Tammy's soft lips, having to lean down a little to each them. The kiss started off soft and sweet then got deeper and more passionate. Dee wrapped her arms tightly around Tammy, feeling things she never felt before all at once. Tammy slowly broke the kiss to rest her head on Dee's shoulder. Dee buried her face in Tammy's neck and inhaled her sweet perfume.
"Do you want to go back?" asked Tammy.
"No lets keep walking. I'd rather be with you." said Dee leading Tammy down the beach holding her hand.
They took about ten steps before they tripped over what could have been a big rock.
"Hey! What the hell?" said a voice Dee recognized as Tony's.
Getting a better look, the rock turned out to be Tony laying on top of Coco. Both were half naked.
Weeks turned into a month and Dee was still with Tammy. This was the longest Dee had been faithful to anyone. They waited a little while to make love, which was new because Dee is a real straightforward person. Usually the same day she hooks up with a girl they end up fucking. It took them about a month to do they thing and Dee was in heat bad. She badly wanted to sleep with Tammy but for some reason wanted to wait with this girl.
One clear night Tammy and Dee were on the phone. It was probably around 11 o’clock and they had been talking for hours.
“Tell me some thing,” said Tammy.
“What?” said Dee.
“Do you jag off?”
“Jag off?” Dee started laughing.
“You know what I mean. Masturbate”
“Naw not anymore.”
“Why not?”
“Cause I got people to do it for me.”
Tammy chuckled. “Girl you are a trip.”
“I’m just being honest. Do you do that?”
“…………”
“Come on now. You got to answer.”
“Yeah.” Tammy blushed. She should have seen this coming.
“Mmmmmmm. How often do you do it?”
“Why you need to know all that”
“Just asking. But uh yeah, when you gonna let me do that for you?”
“Do what? Oh that. Ummmmmm when ever you feel like it. Pick that place and time”
“At yo’ house right now”
“What? Nigga you crazy.”
“I’m serious.”
“Dee, you live like 15 minutes down the street.”
“So? I’ma run my black ass down there.”
“Yeah right.”
“Watch me.”
“Yeah ok. I’d like to…. hello?”
All Tammy heard was the dial tone of the phone. Dee had hung up, snuck out the house and was zooming down the street barefoot in her boxers and a wife beater. She breezed by Coco’s apartment building. Coco and Kandy sat on the front stoop with some friends.
“Coco, was the your cousin?” asked one of the friends.
“I think so,” said Coco looking down the street at the running figure off in the distance.
“Why she running like that?” asked another friend.
“I don’t even know,” said Coco.
Dee made it to Tammy crib in about 5 minutes. She beat a 15-minute trip. She lightly through small pebbles up at Tammy’s window until she poked her head out.
“The fuck? Dee?” said Tammy looking down into the darkness at a shadowy figure.
“Yeah its me. How do I get up there?” asked Dee.
“A ladder is on the side of the garage. Use that.”
Dee quickly got the ladder and climbed up. Tammy pulled Dee in.
“I told you” said Dee.
“I can’t believe you here.” Said Tammy.
“You said pick the place and time. So you gonna let me do that?”
Tammy’s caramel colored skin blushed.” Yeah we can.”
“Won’t your parents hear you screamin’?”
“Screaming? Oh shit, its gonna be like that?”
“Hell yeah. Where you been? Haven’t you heard?”
Tammy laughed. ”Yeah I’ve heard. But my parents ain’t even here. They gone some where.”
“They gone? Then why come you made me climb threw the window?”
“Well you never said you wanted to use the front door”
Dee gave Tammy a dirty look.
“No don’t even make a face. You want this?”
“Hell to the mother fuckin’ yeah.”
“Then come get it.” Tammy wrapped her arms around Dee neck and they fell back on the bed. Dee raised the front of Tammy’s nightshirt and sucked her nipples. She sucked and licked each one in turn as Tammy moaned because it felt so good. Tammy tugged on Dee’s shirt trying to pull it off. Dee got off the bed and undressed, Tammy slipped off her panties and her shirt. Dee lay back on top of Tammy and rubbed and naked body against her’s as the deeply kissed. Again Dee sucked Tammy nipples then kissing her way down her flat stomach. She lifted Tammy’s legs on to her shoulders as she went down to lightly kiss her exposed clit. Tammy’s body tensed up and she let out soft moans that made Dee eat her pussy even better. Dee spread Tammy’s swollen pussy lips and licked between them tonguing the tiny pee hole right above her vaginal opening. She reached up and pinched Tammy’s straining nipples as she teased her clit with the tip of her tongue. Dee closed her lips around Tammy’s clit and softly sucked it; Tammy sucked air sharply through her clenched teeth. Dee put a finger inside Tammy’s sloping pussy and quickly pressed it against her G-spot over and over.
“Oh baby yeah,” Tammy moaned as a strong shiver affected her from her nipples to her pussy down to the tip of her toes. That was probably the strongest orgasm she ever had.
“Damn baby, we should have did this sooner” said Tammy as Dee lay beside her.
“That ain’t all I can do. Just wait till I got something extra on.” Said Dee winking.
“I can’t wait to feel that. I heard that be out of this world”
“Well you know. I know what them girls need.”
“Lets not worry about ‘them girls’, lets concentrate on us for right now” Tammy rubbed Dee’s pussy with her hand. She climbed on top of Dee and traced her ear with the tip of her tongue. Dee grinded her hips up trying to grind her pussy into Tammy’s. When Tammy wiggled her tongue inside Dee’s ear, Dee quivered and nearly came. Her ears had to be the most sensitive part of her body, including her pussy.
Tammy kissed down to Dee’s body briefly stopping to suck her nipples. She left tender kisses all over Dee’s stomach before sliding her head down south. Tammy only had to give Dee’s pussy a few licks and sucks before she came all over her lips and chin.
“Damn” Dee said breathlessly. “That’s the fastest I’ve ever come in a long while.”
“Shit, I didn’t know I had it like that.” Said Tammy amazed by her own power.
“What you mean? I thought you’ve done this before.”
“No, never”
“You serious?”
“Yeah. Why I gotta lie?”
“Well shit that was pretty damn good for your first time.”
“Hey can we try something?”
“Yeah sure”
“You know the 69 position?”
“Oh hell yeah!”
Some weeks went by and they were still together. June turned to August and early September came along beginning their Senior year of high school. Everything was going fine for the two of them. Dee was even at the point of introducing Tammy to her parents. Now that was really strange because with any other girl Dee wouldn’t even considering doing something like that even though her parents knew she was a lesbian. Dee had never been so in love before.
Well it wasn’t until the 4th week of the school year when Dee noticed Tammy starting to act weird. She hardly called Dee anymore, came over to visit or didn’t want to hang out much anymore. Dee noticed Tammy would either be too busy or just too tired to want to spend time with her. Dee tried asking Tammy what was up but all she got was a “Nothing I just haven’t been feeling too well that’s all.”
Dee didn’t know what else to do so she went to the only two people she knew could probably help.
“Maybe she on her period” said Coco as she braided Tony’s hair.
“If that’s the case she been on for about 3 weeks “ said Dee.
“Shit, that would be nasty to deal with for that long” said Tony always being the dumbass.
“Whatever it is I just want her to tell me. I try asking her but she give me the same shit” Said Dee.
“Maybe it’s a personal issue” said Coco.
“Something too personal for her to keep from her own girlfriend?” said Dee with a little frustration in her voice.
“Everyone has secretes they keep from their lovers.” Said Coco.
“Do you have secretes you keep from Tony?” asked Dee.
Tony turned her head to look up at Coco who had a guilty look on her face.
“When the time is right she’ll tell you what’s up” said Coco getting the attention off herself.
“I guess. But why she acting the way she is. Like not wanting to hang with us or even me anymore?” asked Dee.
“Well maybe she’s depressed and when people get depressed they withdraw from friends and people they love.” Explained Coco.
“Oh so you smart now huh?” said Tony. Coco tighten the braid she was working on.
“Ouch! Damn. Sorry” said Tony.
“Anyways that could be the case. Just go over there and try talking to her about It.” Said Coco.
“She already tried that remember ‘ms.I want to be a shrink’.” Said Tony.
“You know what I’m tried of your bullshit” Coco said as she threw down the hair comb and stomped down the street mad as hell.
“Oh shit. Look Dee, I’ll see you later. Come over at around 6:30. Peace.” Tony ran down the street after Coco trying to say sorry.
Dee walked to Tammy’s house taking her cousin’s advice with her. When she got there, Tammy answered the door.
“Hey baby!” said Dee hugging Tammy tight. “I haven’t seen you since yesterday at school.”
“Oh” was all Tammy could say.
“Can I come in?” Dee asked.
Tammy sighed and seemed a little annoyed “Sure,why not? You can’t stay long though, I got to be somewhere.”
“Where you goin’?”
“Gotta take care of some stuff”
They sat on the couch and Dee put her arms around Tammy who seemed to didn’t want to melt into the embrace like usual.
“Baby please tell me what’s up with you.” Said Dee.
“………I can’t.”
“Why?”
“You wouldn’t understand.”
What? How you gonna tell me what I can or cannot understand? How would you know? You don’t tell me anything so how would you know?” Dee was getting mad now.
“I think you better go”
“You know what fine. Fuck this. I don’t need these kiddy ass games put on me. Bye!”
Dee walked put the door and slammed it hard. She went home and played some music to cool down some. She wanted to know what was going on so everything could be the way it used to be.
At around 6’o clock Dee headed to Coco’s crib because she knew Tony would still be there. On her way there she saw Tammy walk out the local corner store. She started to say something when she an older woman walk out behind her and wrap her arms around Tammy’s waist. Dee’s heart fell out her chest. Tammy saw Dee staring and in her head she thought “Oh shit”
Dee walked up and said “So this is it? This is your business?”
“Whats going on” asked the woman.
“Go wait in the car, Terry.” Said Tammy. Terry got in the Benz, leaving Tammy there alone to deal with her shit.
“Like I said, is this what you been busy with these last few days?” asked Dee drawing attention from people that knew her.
Tammy couldn’t speak.
“Am I talking to a damn wall?!?” said Dee with steam almost coming out her ears.
“Yeah, I guess” said Tammy.
“ You guess? So I take it I wasn’t good enough for you then?”
“Its just that she’s older and has more to offer.”
“Like?”
“Like money and anything I could possibly want.”
”You leaving for all that?”
“Well you can’t give it to me”
Dee couldn't take what she was hearing anymore. Insted of punching Tammy in the face, she turned and walked away.
Meanwhile up in Coco’s crib, Tony was fucking her hard with her strap while they lay on the couch making up for earlier that day. They had been fucking like this for about 30 minutes.
“Ooooooooooooooh Tony. Yeah baby. Oooooooh shit I’m coming” moaned Coco and she felt her pussy spasm as she can all over the dildo buried deep inside her pussy. Tony came a minute after she did.
As they laid there panting in each others arms, Dee knocked on the door.
“Who the fuck?” said Coco.
“Oh that’s Dee” said Tony “Go open the door.”
“Why? I’m tired, shit”
“Cause I can’t to the door with this thing on”
“Ok” Coco pulled back on her shorts and answered the door. When she saw the expression on Dee’s face she knew something was up. She opened her arms and let her cousin fall into them.
“Now tell me what’s wrong” said Coco letting Dee cry into her shoulder. They sat on the couch and Dee told Tony and Coco what had just happened. When Dee was done telling her story, all Tony and Coco could say was “Damn.”
So as Dee sat there crying, her cousin and best friend tried to comfort her. It was a sad thing to see that the player finally got played.
