Diamond In The Rough

"Silveeeerrr... Stooooopp," Diamond said as she giggled, giving contradiction to her words. She actually secretly hoped Silver would never stop.

The two girls were once again back on Diamond's bed after having danced the afternoon away, each girl enjoying the company of their beloved. The two lovers were panting and tired as anyone could be, but that didn't stop them from showing their love and devotion for one another. The session started as simple love-making: small pecks on the mouth that grew into deep french kissing, then the free roaming of hands over the other's body, feeling every inch and every curve.

Their actions evolved into feeling the other girl up and slowly undressing the other, never breaking the kiss. Once they were down to their casual wear-around-the-house clothes things got even more heated; their casual clothes being the tank tops and short shorts they usually wore.

Silver was on top of Diamond, keeping her pinned down to the bed in the usual manner; i.e. holding Diamond's arms above her head at the wrists while she straddled the helpless girl. Silver started traveling from Diamond's lips and trailed kisses down to her neck and began pecking and smooching any exposed flesh she could find. Diamond moaned in satisfaction and tilted her head to allow Silver more access to the tender area. The pink girl kept her eyes closed as she absorbed the feeling of her lover's ministrations.

Silver broke away from her girlfriend's neck to catch her breath and stare at her raw beauty. She couldn't tear her eyes away from this girl beneath her. Just gazing at her, seeing that look of pure happiness on her face, was enough to send Silver's heart flying. It brought tears to her eyes to see Diamond so happy.

Diamond looked to her dominating girlfriend with a confused look.

"Why'd you stop?" She asked.

Silver quickly blinked away the evidence of her happiness. "I just wanted to look at you because..." Silver leaned in closer and whispered in Diamond's ear, "you are the most beautiful girl in this world and seeing that you are happy because of what I've done makes me feel like I won the lottery tenfold. I love you! I love you so much Diamond!" Silver said in between kisses. "I want you to be happy for the rest of eternity!" Diamond smiled at her words and nuzzled Silver's cheek.

"As long as I am with you, I will be," Diamond replied. Silver giggled and kissed Diamond on the cheek as well and leaned back, smiling at her girlfriend, who smiled back, and began stroking her hair in long, slow motions. They laid there for a few moments in complete silence, soaking up the feeling of each other's love muscles pumping furiously.

"Why are you afraid to touch me?" Diamond asked suddenly, the question throwing Silver off slightly, but not enough to make her cease her affectionate actions.

"W-...What?" Was all Silver could reply.

"You always seem like you are afraid to touch me, feel me up, sometimes look at me. Is it because of all that has happened? Silver, this heart, body, and mind is reserved for you and you only. You can touch me whenever you want, I don't mind. In fact, I encourage you to because I've been feeling a little neglected lately. If you want to feel something, go ahead. I'll enjoy it just as much as you will," Diamond said with a flirtatious wink.

Silver was... flabbergasted, to say the least. She shook her head to clear her thoughts.

"Oh Diamond," Silver started apologetically, "I'm sorry if it feels like I have been neglecting you here lately. And yes, you're right. I hardly make any moves on you because of everything that has happened. I didn't want you to think that the only thing I cared about was your body and what I could do to it. I want to treat you with love and respect." Silver closed her eyes and sighed. "I don't know, it's just, I don't want to betray you're trust. It took a while to build it up and I would hate for it to be ruined by me randomly grabbing your breasts one day without telling you and "having at it.""

Diamond nodded and smiled at her lover. "I understand what you mean Silver. You were just being chivalrous and restraining yourself so nothing between us would be spoiled. I admire you and love you for that." Diamond arched her back slightly so Silver could wrap her arms around her midriff. "But from now on, if you want to feel something, you go ahead. I'd be more than happy to return the favor," Diamond said with another wink.

She smiled when Silver's eyes lit up, the hug becoming tighter. Silver pressed her mouth into Diamond's and held it for the longest time. Then she broke away and fell off to Diamond's right side and snuggled into her, enjoying the warmth and the rhythm of her lover's pulse.

"Well Gem," Silver started, "do you want to know what I want to feel right now?" Diamond shook her head. Silver giggled and kissed her again. "I want to feel my amazing girlfriend's body pressed against mine, keeping me warm, and I want to make her feel safe. That is what I want to feel."

Diamond beamed happily at Silver's words and wrapped her arms around Silver's torso and pulled her close. The affections became a contest after a bit to see who could hug their girlfriend the tightest. It ended in a draw.

"Silver?" Diamond asked her lover as she watched her prepare dinner. It was another late night at the office for Mister Rich.

Silver looked back at the beautiful girl sitting at the dining room table behind her and raised an eyebrow. "Hm?"

"Do... Do you think we could... dance... again... like we did earlier? Every day? After school? I really enjoyed the motions of the turning and twisting and being close to you in your protective arms and you kissing me and holding me and whispering sweet words to me. It was all so.... magical!" Diamond said in a hushed whisper, clasping her hands together as stars appeared in her eyes. "I could feel how much you love me and it was so... so intense and lovely and warm and I want to feel all those feelings again, all the time! I love you Silver!"

Silver began to tremble as Diamond's eccentric words sank in. She hitched slightly as the first set of oncoming tears teased at her eyes. Silver quickly turned back to the stove to continue cooking the meal; a happy smile adorning her lips as she cooked their meal.

"Of course Gem! Nothing would make me happier!" Silver wasn't lying either. It was one thing when she held Diamond close to herself as they reclined on the bed. But when she held Diamond close to her body as they expressed themselves through movement, it was a whole other form of language completely. Silver sprinkled some seasoning on the Filet Mignon she was grilling and was taken completely by surprise when she felt two hands wrap around her stomach and pull her body in for a warm hug. Silver relaxed into the snuggle and continued to cook. It became even more difficult however as Diamond began to pepper her neck with kisses. Silver shivered from the small pecks, but continued on nonetheless.

"It makes my heart happy to hear you say that," Diamond whispered. She nuzzled into the back of Silver's neck and continued. "I love you Silver... I love you so so so much. Words can't express how much I love you. So I'll just hug you for while and see if that says anything. If I'm in the way though then I'll back off." Diamond said sadly and nuzzled into the back of Silver's neck.

You know I'm not going to say that Silver thought to herself. Why would she cheat the both of them out of this special bonding time? It was downright cruel. And Silver Spoon wasn't about that anymore. Love was her only motto now, and she really loved Diamond. Just thinking of her pink lover gave her warm, fuzzy feelings in her chest.

Seeing as how the seasoning would need a few minutes to soak into the meat to give it a proper flavoring, Silver spun around and wrapped her arms around Diamond's neck, making the girl squeak as she was pulled into a breathtaking kiss. Diamond's eyes fluttered shut and pressed deeper into the lip-lock. Silver broke away first and gazed longingly into her beloved's eyes.

She reached down and slowly lifted Diamond's injured arm up for investigation. She kissed the appendage all over, taking extra special care not to hurt her love anymore than she already was. Silver grabbed the hem of her love's bandages, which started at the back of her hand, and looked into her eyes, awaiting Diamond's silent approval. With a faltering smile, Diamond gulped and nodded to Silver. The gray girl nodded back and began to unravel the gauze.

As Silver unraveled the gauze in a counter-clockwise motion she would steal a kiss from Diamond when she wasn't paying attention. The surprised girl would smile and lean in to kiss her cheek as thanks. Silver would smirk back at her and continue to work.

When she made it halfway down Diamond's arm Silver gasped at the sight before her. It was shocking. Impossible even. It was too good to be true.

"What?!" Diamond asked, scared from Silver's reaction. Infinite possibilities ran through her head as she imagined what was wrong while she waited for Silver's response. Was it infected? Are the cuts split open and bleeding profusely? Was it clotted? Was her arm turning black? Only Silver could tell her as Diamond was too afraid to look.

"It... I-It.. It's... healed..." Silver said in hesitant astonishment.

Diamond looked at Silver, appalled. "What!?" She asked again.

"I mean, not completely. It still has a ways to go, but it is farther along than is possible. This is unbelievable!"

Diamond's breath hitched as she remembered her dream and what her mother did and said.

"My mother..." Diamond choked out.

Silver shot her gaze to Diamond, amazement and shock apparent in her purple lipid-pools.

"What exactly did you say happened in your dream?"

Diamond told Silver of the events in her dream. The gray girl took it exceptionally well and was overjoyed for Diamond. She told Diamond that her mother was still looking out for, and her arm was proof. Silver earned quite a few kisses from her sweet words.

Now their dinner was finished and the dishes were cleaned and put away, their teamwork made the chore fast, fun, and romantic. It was around 8:30 now. Still kind of early, but they decided to take a shower and head to bed early.

Silver used the same technique as before when it came to covering Diamond's arm, i.e. the plastic bag to keep the hot water from scorching the susceptible flesh. Things were pretty heated in the shower, and it wasn't because of the temperature of the water.

Silver had cornered Diamond and was taking her up on her offer from earlier. She was feeling all over Diamond's body and kissing her like a mad person. Diamond could only moan and allow it to happen seeing as how Silver had her completely blocked in. The girl didn't complain though. Diamond found that it was kind of fun to be the submissive one.

Diamond's gray companion trailed her fingers up and down her body as delicately as possible, teasing her and torturing her to no end. She would giggle whenever Silver tickled certain spots on her body; her laughs being muffled by the unending kiss Silver was giving her.

Diamond jumped, squeaking in surprise when Silver brushed over the puffy mounds between her legs. She hadn't noticed how aroused she had become from Silver's work-over, most likely due to the wet environment they were in even though the girls were out of the direct stream of water from the shower head.

She moaned into the kiss and shivered when Silver slipped a finger in between her folds and into her love canal. Silver used her free hand to knead and rub Diamond's breasts, tweaking and pulling on one nipple then switching over to the other and repeating the actions. All the while Silver maintained the kiss with Diamond, utterly proving that Silver did what she did out of love, not lust.

Diamond had found that sex with Silver was immensely more pleasurable when she did it with someone she loved and not for the sake of getting off. She trembled as Silver added two more fingers, making a total of three, and increased the rigorousness of her thrusts.

The pink girl found her climax quickly approaching as Silver continued to increase the roughness of her actions. She kissed deeper into Diamond's mouth. She played with her breasts more and more. And she used her thumb to massage Diamond's love bud. However, Diamond didn't want to cum right now. She had been planning something for later and had saved some special items just for her and Silver to use. As much as she hated to do it, she had to put a stop to this.

"Mmm, mmhhMMss- S-Silver," Diamond finally managed to say after Silver refused to break the kiss. Hearing Diamond call to her, Silver broke away and stared at her with a confused expression, but continued to pump her fingers in and out of Diamond, which is exactly what Diamond wanted her to stop doing.

"Listen. Don't make me cum, alright? I am SUPER close, but I want to save it for later after we get out of the shower. I've got a little surprise for you." Diamond looked away sheepishly, blushing. "I also feel kind of guilty too because ever since we have been together I haven't made you cum ONCE!! And that just isn't fair, so I want to make this experience is as pleasurable as possible." Diamond looked down to where Silver absentmindedly continued to stroke her insides. "That means stop fingering me, Love," Diamond said a little embarrassed, but as kind as she could manage without upsetting Silver.

The gray girl pulled out of her with a wet pop and looked away timidly, hiding a smirking smile with her non-soaked hand.

"Sorry Gem, I was just too focused on making you feel good," Silver said and leaned in closer to Diamond's face, "And you don't need to worry about making me cum Diamond. Making you feel good is always my pleasure," She replied with a wink.

Diamond grinned at her girlfriend's silliness and gave her a quick kiss on the lips. Then another. And another. Never lingering for more than a second on any of them. Then she stepped around Silver and walked underneath the jet of water. Letting the replenishing liquid cascade over her body in tiny rivulets and drip off her body like miniature waterfalls. She looked back at Silver and beckoned her forward, to which the other girl did not hesitate on.

"Come wash my hair for me Silver," Diamond requested, "And you can continue to feel me if you want, just don't make me cum. That's all I ask."

Diamond gasped when Silver wrapped her arms around her abs and pulled her into a semi-crushing embrace. Silver dotted the left side of Diamond's neck with sweet, tender kisses and maybe a nibble or two here and there. Silver always made Diamond feel safe and loved. Just like her mother...

"Your wish is my command," Silver said and grabbed the bottle of shampoo off the wall rack.

Diamond blew air out of her nose to signify she found the remark amusing as Silver squeezed shampoo into her hands. Diamond laid her head on Silver's shoulder and could feel her lover's heart rate against her back. She snaked her arms around Silver's lower back and pulled her closer. Diamond kissed Silver's cheek and beamed joyously at her.

"I love you so much Silver. I love you with every fiber of my being. I'll never let you go," Diamond whispered into her ear.

"Uuuuhh... I don't know what to sa- WOW! First of all, but other than that I'm just utterly... speechless..." Silver stammered out as she stared at the box Diamond had dragged out from underneath her bed and placed on the aforementioned furniture.

Inside was a wide assortment of sex toys. Dildos of various shapes and colors, lubricants of different flavors and viscosity, ball gags, blindfolds, handcuffs, a riding crop, vibrators with a variety of sizes and settings, strap-on attachments for dildos, plus other assortments of adult playthings. Silver turned her head, mouth gaping, to a sheepish looking Diamond Tiara, who had her hands behind her back and found something interesting to look at on the floor.

Diamond glanced at Silver and quickly looked away again when she saw the face her lover was giving her. "I might have salvaged a *few* of the toys from that room I "came" to favor after years of experimenting," Diamond answered with a blush.

"You mean these are... used?" Silver asked, pointing to the box. Diamond nodded.

"What do you expect a hormonal teenage girl of 15 to do when she is aroused and doesn't have her best friend around to help out? I played with everything in that room and these are the ones I found I liked the best. And now I want to share them with you."

Silver was speechless. She had no idea on how to react to this revelation. She did know one thing though. There is a box FILLED with sex toys right in front of her and a willing, sexy, grown woman in the vicinity who is just as eager to use them as she is. Silver grinned maliciously and looked over to Diamond. She raised her hand and waggled her finger in a "come-hither" motion. Diamond obeyed the command and walked towards Silver, all, if not, a bit hesitantly.

"Have you ever tried using any of these anally?" Silver asked bluntly. Diamond's cheeks became crimson colored from the question, but nodded nonetheless.

"Yeah, once, with one of the butt plugs in here I think. But it was too painful so I never got any further than the tip."

Silver looked at the box and contemplated for a moment, then she turned back towards Diamond and wrapped her in a loving kiss.

"Well Gem, I think it is time I showed you the wonders of anal sex. You've been missing out because you quit before the fun even started. The tip is always the worst part, trust me I know," Silver said with a wink, "But after the toy is through and can really settle in there, it is AMAZING!! Moving around and feeling that foreign object inside yourself, it is so.. so... arousing. And pleasurable, don't forget that."

Silver reached into the box and began to ruffle through it, getting an idea of its contents. "Since it will be your technical "first time" we'll start small today and work our way up in the future if you want. Unless you decide you're more of a vaginal type gal then that is fine, but sex is always better when there is something in both your holes. You can just take my word for it."

Diamond blushed even harder at Silver's bluntness and felt unsure of herself. She remembered the one time she had tried and the terrible pain that rippled from her anus when she began pushing the butt plug into herself. It was something she wouldn't soon forget.

But Diamond shook her head and remembered who it was that would be administering the sex to her. Silver Spoon. The girl she trusted with all her heart. The one girl that she knew would never let her down or steer her wrong. Diamond steeled her resolve and looked into Silver's eyes.

"Okay Doubs," Diamond said, using the pet name that Silver loved so much. "Lead the way. I trust you with my life, so I should have no trouble trusting you with this simple act. Just be gentle, okay?"

Silver stepped closer and kissed Diamond with an intense vigor. "Always," she whispered.

Silver's eyes softened and she grinned happily at the girl, her heart melting from all the trust Diamond was putting into her and felt a weird sense of pride swell in her chest and press right against her sternum. She kissed the nervous girl as deep as she dared, then grabbed her hand and led her over to the bed. Diamond followed and felt her pulse increase as the reality of what was about to happen settled into her mind. She was terrified, but excited at the same time. If she could believe anything that Silver had to say on the matter then she knew she was in for one heck of a ride.

Diamond lied down in the middle of the bed and squeaked in surprise when Silver jumped on top and straddled her. She felt her heart beat madly inside her chest and only increased when Silver leaned down and kissed her once more on her lips. Any worries Diamond had were now completely gone; vanished into thin air by this one girl she loved with all her soul. Silver broke away from the kiss and looked her lover in the eyes with a soft smile, panting, excited from what was about to take place.

Silver trailed her hands down Diamond's body tantalizingly, agonizingly slow. She made a pit stop at Diamond's breasts to fondle and knead them tenderly. The carnation colored girl moaned softly and closed her eyes, leaning into the pillow as her life-mate felt her up. Once Silver had her fill of Diamond's milk bags she traveled even further down and stopped at the hem of Diamond's tank top. She lifted the white shirt and pulled up Diamond's torso, exposing more and more of her pink flesh the further she went.

Once the top was off, Silver looked down at the face of a slightly blushing Diamond Tiara, who hadn't been wearing a bra. Silver gave her a reassuring smile to put her at ease and continued downward. She grabbed the edges of both Diamond's shorts and panties and yanked them down in one swift motion, exposing the two pink mounds underneath that glistened with her girlfriend's arousal. Silver looked to Diamond and smirked, causing the girl to blush even harder and look away in embarrassment. Silver chuckled heartily and dragged the box full of toys to herself. She rifled through it and pulled out a single purple vibrator, some cherry lubricant, and the smallest butt plug she could find: a simple gray butt plug that was no bigger than all her fingers when they were meshed together to form some type of drill. The gray girl nodded, content with the items she had selected, and pushed the box away from herself.

Wanting to get straight to the fun, and get this finished before Filthy Rich got home, Silver flicked open the cap of the clear, cherry flavored lubricant and squeezed some out on her fingers. Diamond saw that there was no beating around the bush on this and gulped.

"Now remember Gem," said Silver Spoon, "while this can be pleasurable, it can be just as painful. The most important thing you want to remember is not to-"

"Clench," Diamond finished for her. "I can do that." Diamond thought back to her first attempt and tensed up when she felt Silver applying the cold jelly to her puckered hole. "I think I may have clenched when I first tried this, so that might be one of the reasons why it didn't wor-ORK!!" Diamond's toes curled and gripped the bed sheets in her fists when Silver penetrated her tight hole and intruded on one of her most forbidden places.

It felt strange. The two fingers slipping in and out of her anus and coating her intestines with lubricant was very queer to her, but she couldn't deny that it was turning her on, which was made apparent by the increased production of Diamond's love juice. Silver chuckled to herself as she saw Diamond getting into the swing of it; the pink girl went so far as to rock in time with the pumping of Silver's fingers. The gray girl decided that she shouldn't keep her love waiting any longer.

Silver pulled out of her girlfriend with a wet schlick, cleaned off her fingers, and replaced the bottle back in the box. She then picked up the gray butt plug and held it up to Diamond's back entrance. She looked to Diamond, who looked right back at her, anxiety apparent on her face.

"Ready?" Silver asked her. Diamond nodded in reply and laid back down on the pillows, mentally preparing herself while remaining completely relaxed.

Silver exhaled slowly and gave Diamond's stomach a soothing rub then began to count down. "3.. 2.. 1!" And just like that Silver plunged the toy into Diamond with one good push; the object stopped when its flat part reached her anus, preventing it from going any further. Diamond squealed. A split second of pain from her entrance being stretched shot throughout her body, but then dissipated as soon as it came and was replaced with a weird, yet pleasurable sensation. Diamond moved her hips from side to side, getting a feeling of the foreign invader inside her anus. She hummed happily to herself.

"Wow, this feels pretty nice actually!" Diamond confided to her friend who she stared at with a raised eyebrow. "I didn't expect you to just shove it in though." Diamond pouted.

"It's better to push it in in one go instead of slowly easing it in. Much more enjoyable, especially if it is your first time, and less pain to deal with," said Silver with a loving smile. Diamond smiled back and began moving her hips again, feeling the toy touch every inch of her entrance. The sensation started to build a warmness in her tummy. The ex-bully knew this feeling all too well.

"Now," Silver cut in to her reveling, "This vibrator won't be going inside you," Silver said, holding up the vibrator for her to see. "I'm going to turn it on full power and leave it sandwiched between your pussy lips while it also stimulates the butt plug. That ought to spice things up."

Diamond could hear the lust dripping in Silver's voice, but she knew Silver said it with only the best intentions for her. Diamond gasped when she heard a buzzing noise and a second later that buzzing was on her labial lips. The pleasure in her began to grow even further than before. The buzzing teased everything. Her clitoris, her pussy, and even her ass. Silver wasn't lying when she said this would be a very pleasurable experience.

Satisfied with her work, Silver crawled up the bed and came face to face with Diamond. The pink girl was panting slightly with a blush adorning her cheeks. Silver grinned and lidded her eyes at Diamond then began to stroke her beautiful violet locks while gazing longingly into her eyes.

"I love you Diamond," Silver whispered to her lover. "It takes a lot of courage and trust to have someone do something like this to you. It's such an honor that you'd have me be that person." Silver leaned in and kissed Diamond, causing the girl's heart to skip a beat. "I love you so much."

Diamond was ecstatic, to say the least. She was and always will be eternally grateful to Silver. She had saved her from a righteous path of self-destruction that could have evolved from self-mutilation, to suicidal thoughts, to ending her own life if Silver hadn't intervened. Her heart belonged to Silver, and she had no doubt that she would cherish it for eternity. Now here they were. Sharing Diamond's first anal experience, and so far, she was loving it. The vibrations in her most private of areas plus Silver kissing her mouth and nipping her neck brought her ever closer to climax.

"Silver, I'm s-so cl-close," said Diamond, stuttering. Silver only smiled and pressed her lips deeper into Diamond's. The pink girl moaned and closed her eyes as this final act pushed her past the point of no return.

Diamond moaned into Silver's mouth and violently shuddered underneath her beautiful gray lover. Silver broke away from the kiss and quickly made her way down to in between Diamond's legs. Her eyes widened when she saw that Diamond's vagina was physically quivering and gushed torrents of love juice. It rushed out in big, thick spurts, completely drenching the underside of the vibrator, the butt plug still firmly lodged inside her 'back door', and the bed. Some squirts were so powerful that they shot out far enough to hit the backboard of Diamond's bed.

After a minute or so of complete bliss, Diamond's spurts finally came to a halt. The pink girl had the goofiest grin on her face that melted Silver's heart as she basked in her post-orgasmic glow. Silver giggled at her girlfriend and removed the vibrator from her pussy to finally give it some reprieve, switching it off in the process. Diamond chuckled at the tingling left behind on her labial lips from the intense vibrations of the dildo. Diamond felt a slight tugging sensation emanating from her anus and quickly deduced that it was Silver signaling that she was about to remove the toy. Diamond relaxed and gave a thumbs up to her lover.

Seeing the thumbs up from Diamond, Silver pulled the butt plug out at a semi-constant speed. Not too slow to hurt Diamond much and not too fast to cause any sort of damage. Once it was out, Silver cleaned it off and replaced it back in the box with the rest of the toys. Her gaze lingered on the box as she anticipated the future use those toys would get. She giggled and made her way back up Diamond's body, kissing and licking parts of her as she went.

Silver fell on top of Diamond, hooked her arms underneath Diamond's armpits, and gripped the back of her lover's head in her hands and pulled her in for another long lip lock. Diamond wrapped her arms around Silver's back and enjoyed the warmth that radiated from her love's body as they embraced one another. They pulled away and stared into each other's eyes, never wanting the moment to end. So they didn't allow it to.

Diamond was panting hard, both from the intense orgasm and loving time they just shared together. Diamond hugged Silver closer and rested her cheek against the other's.

"Wow," said Diamond, breathless. "That was... the best orgasm... I ever... had," she said between breaths. "We have to do this again!" Silver smiled and began kissing Diamond's neck, giving her a playful nip every so often. Diamond looked past her lover and inspected the damage cause by her pleasure. "Heh Heh, I guess we should've laid down a towel or something before hand," she said sheepishly.

Silver glanced down at the recent ejaculate from her lover. "Hmm, probably..." Silver mused, then looked back to her lover and stole a quick peck. "I'm glad you had a wonderful experience though, Gem," Silver replied, and gave her another smooch. "Time for bed, love."

"Mm Mm, I don't think so," Diamond responded.

Before Silver had a chance to react, she was flipped over onto her back and pinned to the bed by Diamond, appalled at her lover's newfound strength. Her shock soon melted away when Diamond pressed her lips into her own and kissed the gray girl with an intense hunger. After Diamond pulled away, Silver opened her eyes and, with her heart beating right against her eardrums, looked into the loving eyes of her soul-mate.

"Your turn," Diamond said lustily. Silver shivered in excitement when she felt a hand start to travel down her body. Silver couldn't love this girl on top of her anymore than she did right now, and she loved her with all her heart.

It was going to be a long night.
