Tember Falls 07

September and Samirah are truthful about their feelings for other they confess those feelings to Sapphire and Andre but what comes next is anyone's guess

September sat in her car tapping her hand on her steering wheel. She was sitting outside of her moms house, and was a ball of anxiety and trepidation. She and Samirah were honest and open about their feelings with Sapphire and Andre. However she didn't know how to act being in Samirah's presence in front her mom and Samirah's father Desmond.

She could not dig up the courage to get out of the car. She just stared into space. In front of her childhood home dozens of memories were flooding her mind. Growing up here had not been easy. September's father had left them early on in life. He walked out the door and never looked back. For years it had seemed like their mother Dana blamed her and her siblings for their father leaving.

Dana had stopped talking to her children and taking care of their basic needs. They had to learn how to fend for themselves. For years they felt they had lost their mother. It was the first time September could recall what depression looked like. Their mothers reluctance to be present made the siblings bond tighter.

It also left wounds for her and her siblings that never healed. September had a hard time trusting people, she didn't know how to let people in. It was the main reason she was alone. So it confused her that she trusted Samirah so quickly. But trust her she did. There was feelings that were being awakened in her that she didn't know existed. Still she wasn't ready to face them tonight, not in front of her mother. She was certain she would be awkward and the attraction she felt would be obvious.

She decided she would leave she would give her mother some excuse as to why she couldn't make it. September's mind was made up and she put her car into reverse. She checked her review only to see Andre pulling up behind her. September blew out a bated breath. She was trapped now.

She placed her face against the window to feel its coolness. She had hoped it would calm her down. Her door opened suddenly causing her to almost fall out. Her brother Andre pulled her from the car. And September leaned against it as he took the key out the ignition.

He looked at her and knew she was worried. Hell he was worried for her. He also knew that avoiding this dinner would change nothing. " Come on Tember, you're not alone here."

September looked at her brother and took a deep breath as they walked to the door. As September and Andre got close to the door she could hear the sounds of laughter and music floating through the door to her ears. Andre looked back at her and mouthed "you got this."

September shook her head and together they walked inside. Immediately she was met with the smell of fish being fried and cornbread baking in the oven. Her sister was already in the kitchen with her mom and she saw Desmond's car outside. September breathed a sigh of relief because for the moment Samirah wasn't here.

She walked into the kitchen and stopped dead in her tracks sitting at the table with her mom and sister was Samirah. Samirah smiled gently at her and gave her a sly wink. She walked up behind her mother and kissed her on the cheek. "Hey mama it smells gooood in here."

Dana looked at her daughter and smiled. "Thank you baby, do you mind checking on that batch of fish in the deep fryer?"

" Sure thing mama."

September swatted Sapphire on the head and pinched Samirah on the shoulder. "Hey ladies she sang as she walked over to the deep fryer. September prayed her mother didn't hear the quiver in her voice. The sight of Samirah made her stomach do flips and she needed to calm herself.

Someone had walked up behind her she recognized the smell and new it was Samirah.

She rubbed her hand along the counter and grazed September's knuckles.

"I'm not sure I can handle being this close to you and not touch you." Samirah whispered. "I have been on pins and needles waiting for you to walk through the door."

Sapphire called out. "I know you ladies aren't back there stealing fish I hear y'all whispering."

September cleared her throat and shook the fry basket. "You've always been a little tattletale, mind your business and worry about those potatoes you're cutting and not if we're stealing fish."

"Whatever." Sapphire says and looks back at me and Samirah raising her eyes. I shake my head okay understanding we need to play it cool.

"Hey mom it's hot in here I'm going to go upstairs and change." I walk past my mother and kiss her on the head.

Samirah walks right behind me. "You know I've never been upstairs can I come with you I would love to see your childhood bedroom."

I look back at Sapphire who is glaring at us with daggers in her eyes. What could I say if I said know it would look suspicious and I think Samirah knew that.

"Sure, girl follow me." I say knowing in my head this could be a bad idea.

Me and Samirah walk to my old bedroom and as soon as we're in there she closes the door behind us. I look at her likes she's crazy. " What are you doing?"

She smiles mischievously at me.

I shake my head no. I tentatively back away from her.

"Baby you know this is a very bad idea."

She looks at me innocently. " I have know idea what you mean. I just wanted to keep you company." "Now stop wasting time and change your clothes so we can head back downstairs, unless you have something else in mind."

I just look at her and proceed to take my clothes off. I always kept spare clothes here for the times that me and my siblings would spend the night which wasn't often but we did from time to time. I rummage through my dresser and find a mauve linen outfit.

I'm suddenly regretting the black lace bra and panty set I'm wearing because I can see Samirah giving me that look. So instead of putting on my clothes I sit down on the bed and motion with my finger for her to come here. She slowly walks towards me and she straddles me, placing her arms around my neck. It's a position I had never been in before but I had to confess to myself having her sit astride me like this turned me on in ways I didn't know was possible. I bring my arms to her sides and kiss her.

"I don't know what you're doing to me, but I can't resist you." We kiss a few more moments then she stands to her feet.

"Tember baby as much as I want you, we both know this a bad idea."

All I can do is sigh and get up and put my clothes on. We share one more kiss then head back downstairs. When we get downstairs Andre and Sapphire are in the living room. Me and Samirah take a seat on the couch. They look at us with accusing faces.

Samirah is the first to speak. " Chill out you two we didn't do anything."

Just then my mother walks in on us. "Didn't do what?"

We all look like a deer caught in headlights. "We're just telling Sapphire for the third time that we didn't steal any fish."

My mother laughs believing the lie. " No need to steal, it's time to eat."

We all jump up and run to the dining room table.

After everyone has sat down with their plates. Desmond grabs Dana's hand and stands up. "I'm so glad that you all could agree to come to dinner on such short notice. But we have some news that we wanted to share with all of you at the same time.

We all look back and fourth at each other but none of us say anything. I'm worried that the sound of my heart bumping in my chest can be heard by everyone at the table. The last thing that I want to hear is that Desmond and my mother are getting married. I knew that there would be nothing that I could say that would make sense for me disagreeing. That didn't stop my mind from trying to figure out something that would make sense.

Desmond puts his attention on me and my siblings. "I know that you guys haven't known me that long but me and you mother have been seeing each other for a little over a year. We decided to keep our relationship quiet for a while to see if it was something real." He then leans over and kisses my mother on the top of her head.

"What we have is more than real and we wanted to get the blessing from our kids to take the next step in our relationship."

Sapphire squeezes my hand under the table and Samirah places a hand on my knee to stop me from shaking. I feel as if my lungs can't produce air as I wait for the ground to fall from beneath me.

Desmond continues speaking. " Me and this beautiful lady here have decided to move in together."

My body slumps back in my seat as breath rushes back to my body.

Dana takes an oppurtunity to speak. "I know that when your father left us I wasn't the best mother or woman. I have no excuse for how I checked out as a mother. I know that I left you all to fend for yourself at a time in your lives when it was my responsibility. That has continued to be my single biggest regret in life. I know that we have gotten closer as you guys have gotten older but I know that caused each of you pain that can never be erased. I also know that these dinners can't make up for any wrong doings. I guess I'm just trying to create memories that I missed out on."

"I really love Desmond. I had honestly given up on love at the same time that I gave up on my family. I'm so sorry my babies and I hope that you can forgive me. I wish I could go back in time and fix the wrong that I have done. I am so proud of each of you. You have made wonderful lives for yourselves and it makes me so happy."

" I hope that you can except this change in my life, I know that there really hasn't been a consistent man in my life and that no one can ever take place of your dad. I loved him and for many years I waited for him to come back home to us. I think that I stopped living waiting for him. I had given up on love a long time ago. My only wish was for my babies to find happiness. Then came Desmond and I realized that love was still here for me."

Andre is the first to speak. His eyes are watering and as he speaks you can hear the lump in his throat. "Ma you know that I love you, hell that we all love you. Growing up was hard. We had to pick up where you left off and know child should ever have to endure that. But as I became an adult I realized that sometimes we get lost in ourselves and can't find our way out. I have forgiven you a long time ago. It has been hard for me to forget the memories and the wounds are still there some of them feel as fresh as the day they happened but I still forgive you. Most importantly ma I love you so if this makes you happy and as long as Desmond treats you right thats all i care about."

Sapphire spoke next. "I love you mommy and your happiness is just as important to me as my own so just like Andre if it makes you happy then I'm happy for you too."

It felt like it was my turn but I really wasn't sure were to start with my response. I had so many emotions when it came to our childhood. There were so many things that angered me that hurt me. I wasn't sure what to say. But I knew I had to say something. "Mom you know that I love you, you also know that your checking out on us forced me to grow up long before I was prepared to. But I had to. I learned faster than all the kids my age and it taught me a level of responsibility that I don't believe I would have had otherwise. I was angry with you for so long. I even resented you for years. I couldn't understand how a mother could just do that to her kids. But when became an adult I recognized what you were going through was depression and heartach. I think that you were lost and couldn't find your way. When I look at you now I see the light in your eyes. It had been missing from you for so long I had forgotten what that looked like. I am certain that Desmond is a big part of that. I love you and even though part of me still blames you for what our childhood was and more importantly what it wasn't. I also understand that you were lost and couldn't see your way. We expect our parents to have all the answers but parents are people too and sometimes they stumble along the way. So with all that said you guys have my blessing."

I looked towards Samirah because she was the only one let to speak. She just looked at me and my siblings and then my mom. "You make my dad happy and that is all I can ask for so of course you two have my blessing."

After dinner everyone went outside for a smoke. September stood next to her sister by the fence. Sapphire hugged September tightly. " I know that today has been hard for you for more reasons then one. I know mom talking about our childhood brought up a lot of feelings for you. I also know that me and Andres experience was different from yours. You became our mother over night. I don't know if I ever told you how thankful and grateful I am to you." Sapphire saw the tears in Septembers eyes.

Samirah came over to the girls and hugged them both. "Baby are you okay, I mean I know you're not but I need to ask anyway."

September just wanted to fall into Samirah's arms and she couldn't. She was tremendously frustrated. Up until this moment she hadn't realized just how much Samirah meant to her and that she just wanted to be live openly about her feelings.

September just walked away and went into the house. Todays events had drained her and she just wanted to crawl into bed.

September woke up and she was stretched across her childhood bed. But she wasn't alone. Samirah was there along with her siblings. Yesterday had been more than she had expected.

She slid out of the bed and tiptoed to the bathroom. She looked at herself in the mirror and shook her head. "I gotta get out of here she mumbled to herself."

She was making her way downstairs when she heard Samirah say. " Would you mind giving me a ride, I came here with my father yesterday?"

All I could muster was to wave my hands for her to come on. I had to move Andres car before she could leave and then she and Samirah pulled off.

As soon as we had gotten away from the house I pulled the car over. No words needed to be spoken both woman had been vibrating with energy that needed to be released.

It wasn't just about sex in this moment it was the need to connect on a level that only they understood. They needed their bodies to be intertwined in some way in any way.

September and Samirah grabbed at each other hands searching everywhere and nowhere. Lips touched for brief passionate seconds. Their eyes searched for places that I had yet to be discovered.

September wonders to herself in this moment. "Is this just lust or is it something else?"

She didn't have the best track record with love but she knew what the early stages of those feeling felt like. She knew she could sense that familiar stirring with Samirah.

"Take me home." Samirah whispered in her lovers ear. For a second September wondered what it would be like to live with Samirah. Would they have similar taste? Would they clash? Or would they move in sync like a choreographed dance.

September smiled and said "your place on mines"

Samirah's only reply was "Whichever one is closest."

Ten minutes later they had pulled up to September's house. The second they got inside September slammed Samirah up against the wall and softly bite her neck. "I've waited long enough I need to feel you dripping down my chin." She led Samirah to the bedroom.

Instantly Samirah took control pushing September on the bed she wasted no time pulling September's pants off. She pushes her panties to the side and slide her tongue inside of her. She moaned at the taste of September she licked her wildly leaving no spot untouched covering every inch of her pussy with her tongue. She swirled it around her clit over and over never stopping the pace. September moaned like crazy. Samirah was too fast this wasn't the way it was supposed to go.

September felt her orgasmn rising as she grabbed Samirah's head pushing her deeper into her canal. Her back arched as came. Her eyes watered and her stomach muscles clenched and she sat straight up.

With strength she didn't know she had she used her leg to roll Samirah over on her back. September climbed on top of her pressing her body into her. She licked from her collar bone to the top of her shirt. Slipping her fingers inside of her pants she moaned at how wet Samirah was. September kissed her deeply. She looked into Samirah's eyes. "I told you I wanted to taste you."

Samirah smiled deviously. "The taste of you has been on mind for days."

September mashed her lips into Samirah kissing her with everything she had. "It's my turn now." She got up and pulled Samirahs pants and panties down in one swift motion pulling them over her shoes. She pushed her legs apart and began licking Samirahs inner thighs. The scent of Samirah was making her mouth water.

She wasn't sure what to do but she did know what she liked. Slowly she stuck her tongue inside Samirah's opening. At the first real taste of pussy she knew she was hooked. She ran her tongue over the slick folds. She then took the tip of her tongue and pressed against the bottom of Samirah's clit flicking her tongue upwards. Samirah gasped indicating to September that she was doing something right.

Samirah breath quicken and was becoming louder the more September tasted her.

September continued that motion for a few seconds. She then wrapped her lips around her clit. Samirah's clit was fat and longer then September's. It was fully engorged pushing way past its hood. September began sucking and pulling at it with her lips. She ran her tongue around it like the head of a tiny dick.

September began bobbing her head up and down allowing Samirah's juicies and her own spit to fill her mouth to the overflow point. Suddenly it was all dripping down her chin. September's face was soaked and she wanted more. She flipped Samirah over on her stomach put Samirah on her knees. Just like Samirah had down to her the first night they were together.

Only September wasn't looking to fuck her with a strap on she had other ideas in mind. She grabbed Samirah's ass roughly pushing them as far apart as they could go. She found Samirah's clit again and began sucking and licking it over and over. Wrapping her lips around it again she slowly and gently raked her teeth over it and it was this that sent Samirah over the edge she was moaning uncontrollably at this point. She had fallen flat against the bed. September held on and kept the pressure on her clit.

Samirah was trying to crawl away. To know avail as September wrapped one arm around her under her stomach. Instead of easing up on the intensity she increased it.

Samirah only moaned louder begging September to stop. "Tember baby Please, please, I can't i can't." Samirah continued to tremble. "Shit baby I'm about.. I'm ab.... abo.... about to cum again." Samirah forched her face into the bed as she rode Septembers face. Until she finally stopped cumming.

Both women were exhausted and fell right to sleep in those exact positions.

Samirah woke to the smell of coffee. She got up from the bed and slid on a robe that September had laid out. As Samirah made her way to the kitchen she heard voices.

"Well it's nice of you to finally wake up, what kind of host are you?" Sapphire playfully teased her. "You want some coffee sleepy head?"

Samirah just laughed as She sat at the table. "Coffee would be great thank you."

September was sitting at the table and she seemed deep in thought. Samirah started to panic a little. "Baby what's wrong."

At the sound of being called baby September smiles. She hadn't realized how much that word could make her melt until now. "Nothings wrong Samirah what makes you think that?"

Samirah just looks at her for a second. "You just seem so far away from me right now."

September places her cup on the table and clasp her hands in front of her. "Samirah I have been trying to decide if I should tell you something. Every time I think about it I feel crazy like this can't be real. Samirah I think I love you."

Samirah smiles" Baby I think I love you too."

Sapphire decides to jump in the conversation. " What is wrong with you two it's obvious to anyone that is in the presence of you, that y'all are in love."

Samirah sighs. "This could end so badly."

Neither of the ladies say anything because they all know it's true. The relationship between Samirah and September could hurt their parents. But the fact remained that what they felt was real.

Sapphire breaks the silence. " Look, right now our parents don't know a thing, Lets just try to keep it that way for as long as we can."

"Now you two go shower and change, it's Sunday let's hit the farmers market. I want to grab some of that mango olive oil."

Samirah and September get up and head to the back to get dressed. They moved in silence but in rhythm. It was as if they were made to find each other. Soft touches here and there, affectionate kisses and body movements. This was real and eventually it was going to come out.

They would do their best to keep it between them for now.
