Chapter Text
Before they went to Hope’s room, they stopped by Josie’s because the brunette told Hope she had to grab something for her. When they got inside, Josie surprised Hope with a Valentine’s Day card.
“Just because we’re together now, doesn’t mean I plan to stop wooing you.” She smiled shyly as she handed the card over.
Hope’s heart sped up. It was a small gesture that meant the world to her. Especially now that they were together and that Josie knew how much these stupid(ly adorable) little cards meant to her. This one had a picture of Elsa on it which made Hope smile.
“Your love melted my frozen heart.” Hope smirked. “This is perfect....but not entirely accurate. I’m the Elsa of this story. Who...if she doesn’t get a girlfriend in the next movie I will revolt.”
Josie laughed. “I could have given you an Olaf one that said I like warm hugs. But I was trying to be romantic.”
“I’ll allow it.” Hope smiled as she pulled Josie into a kiss.
When they parted, she held her to her chest and inhaled the scent that she knew so well. Her mate. Her Josie.
“And you still have Penelope’s card in your room?” Josie wondered as she eventually pulled away.
“I do. I also finished the painting.” Hope smiled. “Tomorrow’s going to be so much fun.”
“If she says yes.” Josie replied as she bit her lip nervously.
“ Please , she’s already in so deep…okay, no, I can’t finish that sentence without dirty thoughts now.” Hope shook her head and rolled her eyes at herself. “She corrupted me, you know.”
Josie rolled her eyes. “Yeah, because you didn’t take me in a shower our first time together. And you don’t have sex dreams involving the three of us.”
“She started it!”
Josie kissed her. “That can’t be your argument forever. Besides, do you hear me complaining? I mean...I’ve been having some pretty great dreams lately myself.”
Hope raised an eyebrow. “Care to share?”
Josie stepped into her and kissed her teasingly before backing away. “Or I could just show you...later…”
“So...we’re really doing this?” Hope asked excitedly.
“I know it’s what I want….are you still sure?” Josie answered.
“As sure as I’ve ever been…” She kissed Josie and wrapped her arms around her. “I love you with my entire being...but you agreed that we’re not entirely complete...not yet. We are so fucking amazing on our own...but with Penelope…”
Josie nodded against her. “I agree. I just hope she wants this as much as we do.”
“There’s only one way to find out…” Hope trailed off before initiating another makeout session.
Eventually, they made their way back toward Hope’s room and were not at all surprised to see Penelope outside waiting for them.
“I just wanted to say goodnight...before I gave you some space…” Penelope told them as she met their eyes with her steady ones.
“Oh, we planned on watching a movie with you. We were going to wait and have sex when you were asleep.” Hope told her with a smirk and a quirk of her eyebrow.
Penelope’s eyes darkened instantly and her mouth dropped open.
“I mean, if that’s still okay with you.” Hope teased.
Penelope snapped her mouth shut and nodded wordlessly. Hope figured that she didn’t trust herself to speak, which was a good sign for the things to come.
They watched a movie cuddled up together; with Hope happily between Penelope and Josie. Just before the credits finished rolling, Josie grabbed her phone excitedly.
“I can’t believe I almost forgot!”
She typed a few things on her phone and, soon, both Penelope’s and Hope’s phones buzzed. Hope spared a questioning glance at her girlfriend before dutifully scanning through the images Josie sent her.
There were a few selfies of Josie and Penelope during their dance. They had their cheeks pressed together and smiled at the camera in most of them. A few of them Penelope looked at Josie with heart eyes that Hope could completely relate to. And one of them had Josie kissing Penelope on the cheek as the girl in question stared at the camera in a daze. The next set of photos were of Hope and Penelope dancing together. They had been focused solely on each other, she never noticed Josie had snapped a dozen photos of them. Hope’s favorite was one where they stared at each other with identical smirks on their faces. She saved them all into her phone quickly and looked up at her girlfriend.
“You’re a sneaky little shit and I love you.” She told her fondly.
“I know.” Josie smirked back.
Hope noticed Penelope still in a trance as she looked at her phone.
“You okay?” She asked with humor.
Penelope swallowed noticeably and again nodded wordlessly.
“Well, it’s getting late. We should get to bed.” Josie said. She crawled over Hope and pecked Penelope on the lips.
The other girl sat there stunned.
“You need some rest. We have a big day planned for you.” Josie told her happily.
Then she retreated back to her side of the bed.
Hope leaned in and kissed Penelope on the cheek before she whispered in her ear. “If you stay awake long enough tonight...I promise you’ll get lucky.”
Penelope choked on air and then stumbled over to the other bed in silence. After several minutes enveloped in darkness, she finally found her voice.
“Night.” She whimpered out, barely audibly.
xxxxxxx
Part of the arousal was the exhilaration of trying to have sex without getting caught, the other part...the bigger part for Hope, was the idea that if they did wake Penelope up (or if Penelope had never gone to sleep)...that she would most definitely be watching them. And it was that part that Hope chose to focus on as she decided against discretion and just wanted to give Josie her greatest orgasm ever.
They had been making out pretty heavily when she pulled away to climb on top of her girlfriend, and straddled her. Hope quickly shed her shirt as she proceeded to rock her hips; grinding down into Josie with abandon and then she attached their lips. Hope moaned into the kiss when Josie’s hands found purchase on her bare chest and palmed each of her breasts. Josie massaged the mounds with her strong hands. Hope sped up the rhythm of her body as she adjusted herself so that she was riding Josie’s thigh with force and intention.
Then Hope’s hand wandered down Josie’s body, and into her panties. She quickly ran a finger through Josie’s slick folds before she settled on her clit and rubbed in fast, frantic circles. Josie’s loud moan was swallowed by Hope’s waiting mouth. Hope pulled away to catch her breath and allowed herself to be pulled further into Josie as the brunette caught one of her hardened nipples in her wet, hot mouth and sucked and nipped at it for all she was worth. Hope took a moment to enjoy the sensation, and glanced over at the occupied bed across the room.
Even in the dark, even from that distance, Hope could see Penelope’s eyes glow bright yellow as she watched them with intensity. Hope smirked at her and kept eye contact as she grinded harder into Josie’s thigh. It spurred her on when she noticed movement from Penelope as the girl’s hands disappeared under the blankets to presumably touch herself. Hope inhaled deeply through her nose and, just as she predicted, the scent of Penelope’s arousal (mixed with hers and Josie’s) assaulted her senses.
Knowing that Penelope was watching them, she pulled away enough to get Josie’s attention. She leaned down toward her girlfriend, and used her fingers to turn Josie’s chin to face their interloper. Hope felt Josie’s heart rate increase when she caught sight of the lust-filled gaze being directed at them. She smirked as she attached her mouth to Josie’s neck and bit down with enough force to cause a spike in arousal, not pain. Then she smoothed her hot tongue over the mark and repeated the action further down Josie’s neck, and then to her collarbone.
Josie writhed with desire, and was so close to orgasm already, but Hope was far from done with her. She pulled away and snapped her fingers to lightly illuminate the room...enough so that Penelope could properly see what she had planned next. She helped Josie remove her shirt and took her time caressing each exposed breast. As she moved her mouth down and tugged at one of the nipples with her teeth, she turned her head enough to watch Penelope and smirked when she noticed that the girl was nearly undone herself.
She spent more time on each breast; on each nipple. Working her tongue and teeth and lips over the hardened nubs. As she did so, she moved her fingers deftly through Josie’s folds and worked her way into her. One finger first, and then she quickly added two. But she had become frustrated by the hindrance of the undergarment, so she impatiently tore the panties in half and ripped them off of her.
Then she kissed her way down Josie’s body, circling her navel with her tongue as she kept up the pace of her fingers. Josie came moments later, with Penelope following directly behind her. Hope smirked to herself at how easily they could turn Penelope on and push her over the edge, without either of them touching her. She eventually worked her way down to Josie’s core and settled herself happily between Josie’s legs. Josie spread them further apart instinctively and Hope attached her lips to her clit and sucked hard as she let her tongue explore...taste...arouse. Eventually, she moved down further and continued her assault on Josie’s core with her tongue. She entered her as fast and as deeply as she could and when she couldn’t get enough, she raised Josie’s hips off the bed and tucked the brunette’s legs over her shoulders. She buried her head in between Josie’s legs and took her time devouring her. Hope brought her almost to the edge, but didn’t let her fall...not yet...not this time.
She pulled away, and kissed her right thigh with reverence as her eyes locked with Penelope’s bright yellow ones once more. Penelope was so incredibly turned on, that just feeling it vibrate off of her made Hope nearly come. She slowly released Josie’s legs and climbed back up her. Hope kissed her deeply and smirked into the kiss knowing that Josie could taste herself on Hope’s tongue. Josie tasted fantastic, and Hope was happy to share that with her girlfriend.
As her hand traveled back down Josie’s body, it snaked in between them as she fingered Josie’s clit once more and then ground her hips into Josie’s. She was effectively riding her own hand and pushing it further and harder into Josie in the process. As they built their way back up to the edge, Hope pulled out of the kiss and moved her lips to Josie’s ear.
“If we can feel how turned on she is...let’s make her feel what we feel….” She purred into her ear huskily.
Josie nodded as her own eyes darkened. Both of them turned their heads to face Penelope and they came hard with so much emotion...emotion that they released into the room and transferred to Penelope in full force.
“Holy Fucking Shit!” Penelope moaned out as the most intense orgasm rocked her body.
Hope collapsed onto Josie and breathed hard against her exposed neck. Their nipples touched with each breath, only causing Hope to shudder with lust again. And she removed her hand from between them...from inside Josie, and brought it to her own lips to suck the remnants away with a satisfied groan of approval.
The room was quiet, but not unbearably so. Hope snapped her fingers again, and thrust them back into the darkness. She crawled off of Josie but pulled the girl into her to cuddle. She belatedly realized that she never had taken off her own panties, and that Josie never actually touched her. Not there. Not this time. She rolled her eyes at herself. Here, she had made fun of Penelope for being easy, but she didn’t fare much better.
Speaking of Penelope…
“Are you okay over there?” She whispered into the dark.
Penelope choked out an awkward cough before answering with a high pitched, “Fine.”
“You don’t sound fine.” Hope teased slightly. Just to lighten the mood. Just to let Penelope know that they were far more than just okay with what had happened.
“You could just come over here, sleep by us.” Josie offered thoughtfully. “After what we all shared together, it’s no use sleeping over there all by yourself.”
Silence. A pause.
“Are you sure?” Penelope asked nervously.
“Are we sure we’re all good with everything that happened….or are we sure that you can sleep over here?” Hope wondered.
“Both?” Penelope replied.
“Then, yeah, to both.” Josie told her.
It didn’t take any more convincing for Penelope to tear off her blankets and join them on the bed. Josie moved closer to Hope to make room for the other girl and Penelope crawled in beside her.
“You’re not...you’re...still naked.” She stated with darkened eyes and awe in her voice.
Josie sat up to move. “I’ll get dressed if you’re uncomfortable.”
“No!” Penelope blushed and shook her head. “I mean, it’s okay. I’m fine with it.”
Josie smiled then grabbed Penelope’s hand and pulled her closer. She threw Penelope’s hand around her and let it settle on Hope. Hope smiled at Penelope to let her know that she was fine with it, too. More than fine with it. And then she wrapped her arms around Josie and cuddled further into her.
It took a while, but all three of them eventually fell asleep.
xxxxx
Hope woke up from the most erotic sex dream in her life; only to realize that she was being cuddled by her naked girlfriend, and that Penelope was indeed in bed with her. Thoughts of the night before poured into her mind. If she wasn’t already turned on from the sex dream...she was a full on horn dog now. Usually when she woke up from one of those dreams, she slowly untangled herself from Josie and took a quick shower...not a cold one, but more like she turned on the water and got herself off.
But this morning, since the sun was barely rising, she didn’t feel like leaving the comfort of her bed. Or the comfort of these girls in her arms. She decided that she would try to take care of business on her own...without leaving the room this time.
She shifted over on her back, and trailed her fingers slowly down her body and into her panties. As she made a few exploratory circles over her clit, she let her eyes wander to the girls beside her. She let herself think about the things she would like to do to them. Then things she’d like to watch them do to each other. And eventually, her fingers made their way inside of her warm, wet center as she worked to bring herself into a quick release.
As she took a stuttered breath, Josie’s eyes popped open. Hope’s eyes went wide at being caught, but instead of stopping, she deliberately kept going as she met her girlfriend’s gaze. It wasn’t until she heard Penelope’s sharp intake of breath that she realized that Josie wasn’t the only one who had woken up. Her hand stilled and she attempted to pull out the offending fingers when Josie’s hand stopped their retreat.
She bit her lip and her own eyes darkened as she stared at Hope with intensity.
“Don’t stop.” She demanded kindly.
So Hope didn’t. She kept her fingers going, and even picked up pace. Josie removed her hand from Hope’s wrist to grab Penelope’s hand and tugged it over her own body and led it over to Hope’s. Penelope scooted over on the bed, spooning a naked Josie just to get a further reach. And then without faltering on eye contact, Josie led Penelope’s hand over Hope’s stomach and pushed it into her panties.
Hope’s eyes widened as she swallowed harshly. She slowly removed her own fingers when Penelope’s replaced them.
“Go ahead.” Hope told her as she met her eyes. “Please...I’m so close.”
Penelope’s lust-filled eyes remained on Hope as she quickly went to work moving through Hope’s slickness and assaulted her throbbing bundle of nerves. She built Hope up to an orgasm in no time, before she shoved two fingers inside her and thrust in and out of her as deeply as her position could afford. She pounded into her relentlessly and as Hope came hard with a string of curse words on her lips, she continued to finger her so she could ride out the wave of pleasure.
Hope closed her eyes and tried to catch her breath. Even though Penelope’s hand had stopped moving, she kept her fingers deep inside of Hope’s center. Hope loved the way they filled her up, and knew that as soon as she removed them, she’d feel empty.
When Penelope did pull them out, she immediately brought them to her mouth and moaned at the taste that soaked them. Hope’s eyes widened in delight and further arousal. She shoved Josie flat on her back and slipped her fingers through the wetness that had already pooled between her legs. She could already feel how close Josie was having just watched what Hope experienced, so it didn’t take long for Josie to topple over the edge as well. Hope, instead of licking the arousal off her own fingers, brought her fingers to Penelope’s mouth and let the girl suck them off one by one.
Josie stared at the action, and as soon as Hope’s fingers were free, she pulled Penelope to her in a rough and hot kiss. Both girls moaned loudly into the kiss as Hope watched them with wonderment. After watching them for awhile, she couldn’t take it anymore and moved down Josie’s body to settle between her legs. As she massaged her clit with her tongue, she reached up to find Penelope’s hand and pulled it down toward her. Toward Josie’s core.
Penelope seemed to catch on quickly to what she was expected to do. So she circled Josie’s clit roughly as Hope buried her tongue further south and together they brought Josie to another orgasm. Hope made her up her girlfriend’s body and pulled Penelope into a deep and exhilarating kiss as she shoved her tongue in the girl’s mouth and let her taste Josie’s essence. Then she pulled away and gently guided Penelope’s head further down Josie’s body.
Penelope didn’t need further direction as she quickly and without warning attached her lips to Josie and ate her out with enthusiasm. Hope watched her do so for a few minutes as her own arousal came back in full force. Then she re-directed her lips to Josie’s as she touched herself. They came at the same time and Josie looked like she was about to be spent.
“You okay…” Hope asked with concern.
“Way more than okay...just give me a minute so I can return the favor…”
Penelope smirked at Hope and they both raised an eyebrow. She climbed up her body and settled against her on the opposite side as Josie.
“We’re not quite finished with you yet…” Penelope announced as she took one of Josie’s nipples in her mouth harshly and bit down with enough force that Josie cursed and moaned and bucked her hips with pleasure.
Hope smiled at that, and she did the same with Josie’s other breast. So the two of them took their time caressing and worshiping Josie’s glorious chest as they simultaneously snaked their hands down the girl’s body and entered her at the same time. They were delicate at first, to make sure that Josie’s opening could take both of them. Then they slowly pushed in further, and stretched her out deliciously.
As they slowly worked their fingers in and out in tandem, with shallow thrusts, Hope felt her own orgasm rise again. She doubled her efforts on Josie’s nipple and then she let Penelope deal with Josie’s core while she frantically circled her girlfriend’s clit. The three of them came in unison. Josie breathed in fast and shallow breaths as she tried to compose herself. And as she did so, Hope pulled Penelope into her and kissed her soundly.
They made out until Hope needed more...until she decided that it was Penelope’s turn to enjoy the moment. She relieved herself of her own panties before she turned her attention completely on Penelope.
“Clothes off now…” She uttered as she assisted the girl with the removal of said clothes.
Hope’s not sure she ever saw someone get undressed so quickly. She pulled Penelope on top of her and without hesitation, and immediately Penelope straddled her. Hope buried her fingers deep inside of her and watched in fascination as Penelope rode her fingers with practiced ease. It took her no time at all to work herself into a trembling mess of pre-orgasmic bliss, but Hope reached up to place a hand on her shoulder and stop her movements.
“Not yet...we...I have something else planned for you.” Hope told her.
Penelope exhaled shakily as her entire body shivered with anticipation.
“Lay down.” Hope growled.
Penelope did as instructed. And Hope crawled on top of her, straddling her face. She glanced down at Penelope to make sure the girl was okay with what was about to happen. But before she could ask, Penelope gripped her hips and pulled Hope down on her face. She latched her mouth on Hope’s clit with so much eagerness, that Hope took a second or two to recover. Then she started to rock into her. Eventually, she got her rhythm right and fucked herself into Penelope’s mouth. It was nice having sex with non-humans, because she didn’t have to worry about hurting Penelope as she rode her hard and pounded her head into the mattress.
“Wow...fuck…” Josie breathed out as she watched them. But then eventually, she climbed down the bed and rested her head between Penelope’s legs and ravished her as Hope continued to grind down into her face.
Hope came first, and was going to climb off so she could watch Josie finish eating Penelope out. But Penelope had other ideas, and firmly held Hope in place as she worked her tongue so far into her that Hope fell over the edge again almost instantly. She pulled away this time, and joined Josie at the foot of the bed. She pulled Josie’s head away from Penelope and kissed her thoroughly, before taking Josie’s place at Penelope’s thrubbing center.
She used her fingers and tongue to push Penelope the rest of the way over the edge and then took her time lapping up all the juices. Hope glanced up to see Josie’s lips attached to one of Penelope’s nipples, and could see her tongue swirling around it. She reached out and grabbed Josie’s hand in hers and brought it down to Penelope. Hope watched in awe as Josie’s fingers disappeared inside of her and bit her lip to suppress another moan as she watched Josie thrust in and out.
“Harder…” She whimpered.
Josie did so.
“More…” She growled.
So instead of two fingers….Josie added three. Penelope’s hand gripped Hope’s head and tangled in her hair, then she pushed her head toward her clit. Hope sucked on it with force, and her whole body felt the intensity of the electricity that shot through each of them as Josie’s fingers buried deep inside of Penelope. All three of them felt the same hot heat of orgasm nearly shatter them. They came undone and were left breathless, together.
Josie pulled her fingers out of Penelope’s center and Hope unattached her lips from her clit. Then they climbed up Penelope’s body and weaved themselves around her before they all fell asleep out of pure exhaustion.
Hope woke up as the others started to stir. They shared awkward smiles in the daylight, but got dressed quickly in the silence. When they were all decent again, Penelope took a steadying breath and locked eyes with the girls nervously.
“I understand what last night…and this morning was, and even if it was just a one or two time thing...I want you to know that I have no regrets. It was amazing. You both are amazing. And not just in bed...but, like, as people, too.” She rambled.
“Oh, hey. No.” Josie stepped toward her to comfort her anxiousness over the situation.
Hope felt bad that Penelope had completely misread the situation so she hurried over to her desk and grabbed the homemade card she and Josie made for the other girl.
“Granted, this morning kind of just happened...but it wasn’t like we didn’t want it to. We just planned to make us all official first.” Hope said as she handed the card to Penelope.
It was three hearts made out of construction paper. One pink, one red, and one white. They were glued together with a picture of the three of them placed in the center. And underneath, in Josie’s careful and elegant scrawl, was the question they realized they should have asked last night. Before everything else happened.
“Will you be our girlfriend?” Hope and Josie asked together as Penelope read the card with shaky hands and tears in her eyes.
“I...of course. Yes!” She nodded her head vigorously and looked at the other girls with so much love and affection. But also with uncertainty. “So last night wasn’t just…”
“Last night was the first night of the rest of our lives....if you’ll have us.” Hope affirmed.
“I love you, Penelope Park. As much as I tried….I never stopped.” Josie admitted as she shyly bit her lip. “But if what I thought I felt for you before was love...then I don’t even know how to explain how much I feel for you now….”
“You complete us. You compliment us. We’re stronger together. All of us.” Hope added.
Penelope leapt at them and alternated between them as she smothered them both with kisses. “Why did you wait until we got dressed? We could already be back to the good part.”
Josie blushed and Hope ducked her head to hide hers.
“We...we have forever for that. Today, we wanted to treat our girlfriend to a date.” Josie said since she was the first to recover.
Penelope’s eyes widened. “Really? I…”
And then she started to cry again. Hope joined her and eventually so did Josie. Tears of absolute and overwhelming joy. When they recovered, Hope pulled her phone out of her pocket and snapped a few pictures of the three of them. She sent her favorite--the one with Penelope proudly displaying her Valentine’s Proposal with a huge smile on her face while Hope and Josie each kissed one of her cheeks--to Lizzie, along with the inscription, “She said yes!”
Her phone buzzed instantly with a response. Hope smiled as she read the text.
“So, Lizzie said it was about damn time. But then sent a billion heart emojis and then just as many nauseated face emojis.” Hope showed them the text.
“She’s really okay with this….with me?” Penelope’s eyes met Josie’s. “I don’t think I would survive losing you again.”
“Hey, you won’t have to. You have me.” Josie re-assured her.
“Always and forever.” Hope nodded in agreement.
They gave Penelope a few more minutes to process everything before they led her to the clubhouse. This time there wasn’t a no magic rule, so Josie waited outside with Penelope while Hope got the room ready for them. When her girlfriends entered, Hope smiled proudly at the sight of them. If she had been happy beyond measure before, nothing compared her for this feeling. This moment.
“I love you both. So much.” She breathed out with awe and adoration.
Penelope’s face lit up. “I love you, too.”
Josie hugged her from behind and kissed her neck as she whispered her own, “I love you.”
Hope could hear Penelope’s heart beat erratically. She could also feel the waves of love and happiness pour off both of her girls. It made her heart whole. It made it beat steadily as her entire being calmed. She felt at home. Aroused. And happy. But at home. The three best feelings in the world, if you asked her.
Hope snapped her fingers and music surrounded them. The room was dimmed so that the stars that Hope produced within it were visible even though it was daylight outside. Magical flowers bloomed around the room, celebrating their start of a new adventure. Penelope twirled around the room with her eyes alight with wonder.
“This is perfect.” She stopped twirling and leveled her eyes to meet Hope’s. “Just like you.”
Hope smiled at her shyly, and extended both of her hands to each of the girls. Josie took Hope’s hand first, and Penelope followed suit. Then Hope swirled them around until they both twirled into her and she held them closely against her.
“I didn’t think being this happy was possible.” Hope said as she kissed each of them.
“I know the feeling.” Josie admitted.
Penelope nodded as she kissed each of them and fully took advantage of their proximity. When she pulled away, she took each of their hands and led them around the room as she took the time to smell and examine every flower. Hope was happy that her girlfriend was happy.
“I have something I wanted to share with you.” Josie told her after about a half an hour of comfortable silence.
Penelope paused in her movements and looked at Josie with adoration. “Really? I mean, I assumed that this date was already the surprise you both had for me.”
“I…” Josie glanced at Hope. Hope nodded at her for reassurance and support.
Then she snapped her fingers and produced Josie’s guitar in her hand. Penelope’s eyes widened.
“You...for me…?” Penelope was speechless.
Josie nodded. “I sang for Hope once, and she told me that I should share my voice with the world...and you...you guys are my world, so…”
Hope melted at the statement. She kissed Josie soundly.
“Thank you.” Hope told her. “I just...I also meant, like everyone. You are so talented and you deserve to be heard.”
“I know….but I want to start small. With just the two of you. I’ll share it with Lizzie next. And then....who knows, maybe I’ll sing at the next school talent show.”
Penelope kissed her. “I am so happy right now. This is all I ever wanted for you. I know I didn’t go about it the right way, but I always just wanted you to be seen and heard. I knew how special you were and wanted the whole world to see it, too.” She sighed and shook her head. “Had I realized how special I would feel having you only be real with me...I would have been content keeping you to myself. I’m not saying it’s right...or that I still wouldn’t have screwed things up with you...I’m just saying that I realize how wrong I was about so many things.” She kissed Josie again. “I promise to get it right this time.”
“You already have.” Josie smiled at her.
Hope took Josie’s hand in hers and squeezed it in comfort.
Josie took a deep breath and steadied herself.
“Okay, it’s now or never.” She breathed out shakily.
Josie hesitantly strummed a few chords on her guitar before her beautiful voice carried softly throughout the room.
“The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
And emeralds from mountains that thrust toward the sky
Never revealing their depth
And tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
I’ll be captivated, I’ll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above.”
Hope once again listened to her girlfriend transfixed. But this time, she wasn’t alone in the experience. She rested her head on Penelope’s shoulder as they held hands and swayed into each other. By the second chorus, Hope stepped away from Penelope and walked over to Josie. Then the two of them serenaded Penelope with all the love in their hearts.
After the song, the three of them ate their picnic lunch as they laughed and talked for hours. When they finished eating and talking, Hope turned the music filtering through the room up higher and bowed in front of her girlfriends.
“May I have this dance?”
They all held each other closely and swayed to the music as they let it take them to another place. Hope let her mind wander as she thought about how she got to this place. She still didn’t understand it. She still didn’t know how she was so lucky. But she wasn’t about to question it. Nothing could make her feel anything but happy ever again.
When their dance was over, Hope pulled away. “It’s time for my surprise!”
Penelope stared at her. “Seriously? This is the best date ever.”
Josie smiled. “You have no idea…”
Penelope raised an eyebrow and smirked at her. “I do have some ideas. As you recall, I have a very vivid imagination. And numerous sex toys…”
Hope’s eyes widened. “You know what...my surprise can wait. I think we should head to your room.”
Penelope laughed. “Nope. As enticing as that sounds...I want to see what your surprise is. I’m sure I’ll love it.”
Hope blushed. Then she shook her head and smiled widely. She used her magic to summon the picture she painted and presented it to Penelope.
She had painted their pack. All four of them. From memory. Because they were her favorite memories. All the best of them.
“Wow...this is amazing.” Penelope stared in awe. Then wiped a tear from her eye. “You...it’s us. Our family.”
Josie nodded. “We thought we could hang it in our room.”
Hope smiled. Their room. Because it was. It would always be theirs, because it never felt like home to Hope until they were a part of it.
“My girlfriends are the best.” Penelope kissed Hope. “Most talented.” She kissed Josie. “Hottest people in the world.” She pressed them together so Hope and Josie could kiss, and Hope smiled into the kiss.
When Hope stepped away, she glanced at Penelope. “So...about those toys…”
Penelope laughed out loud. “And here I thought I was the horny one in this relationship.”
Josie shook her head. “Oh, you have nothing on Hope. She was a wolf longer than us...I think that is the only explanation.”
Hope rolled her eyes. “Or maybe...now that I know how amazing sex is with the women I love...I just plan to enjoy it every day forever.”
Josie and Penelope stared at each other with wide eyes.
“We created a monster.” Penelope teased.
“I entirely blame you.” Josie responded with a smirk.
“Hey...if I get to have sex as a punishment, I’ll take it.” Penelope commented which wiped the smirk right off Josie’s face and replaced it with a furious blush.
“You broke her.” Hope smiled proudly.
“Oh, you have no idea. Wait till you see how she responds when I take her from behind while you us and touch yourself.”
Hope’s mouth dropped open as she released a low growl and her eyes turned yellow with need. “Okay, your room. Now.”
And they never made it back to the school so fast in their lives.
xxxxxxx
Only just the beginning of forever....
