This Kiss

Chapter 127

When Natalia and Isabel finally released one another from their tight embrace, they made their way back into the house. Natalia couldn't help the small smile that graced her lips as she heard her wife and Doris's laughter coming through the door. Part of her wanted to just stand there on the porch and listen to the rich sound forever.

It had been so long since her wife had truly laughed, excluding their drunken state the previous night. It was nice to hear her sounding so carefree and happy, without being under the influence of more than a glass or two of wine. She knew that delightful sound would cease the moment she opened the door and Olivia looked at her. There wasn't a point in trying to hide what she was feeling, Olivia could always tell, even back when they were enemies, Olivia always knew when something was bothering Natalia.

Taking a deep breath, she opened the door and stepped into the warmth of her home. A small, sad smile on her face. She refrained from letting Olivia see her just yet, wanting to allow her wife just a few more moments of happiness before she took it away again. Removing her jacket, she hung it on the hook and then tried to smile just a little wider as she turned to fully face the two women sitting on the couch.

A tiny but genuine smile overtook her features as she did so. Olivia had her head against the back of the couch, a huge grin on her lips, and that old sparkle in her eye as she peered at Doris who had obviously just said something, most likely inappropriately, hilarious. Doris, who had tears in her eyes from laughing so hard, looked to be just as relaxed and happy as her love. It was nice to see on both of them. She made her way over to them and slid gracefully into her wife's lap as Isabel took the wicker chair. Glad that maybe she didn't have to take this happy moment from her lover after all. Instead, she would join it and tell Olivia about the phone call from her parents later.

"And just what are you two in here cackling about? Something completely inappropriate I'm sure." She said with a smile as Olivia's arms wrapped around her waist and a kiss was placed to her cheek.

"Only a little. She almost started laughing again just thinking about what Doris had just told her. "The mayor here was just telling about an experience she had with a girl back in college. Apparently the woman had some poor aim."

Natalia face was of utter confusion until it set in just exactly what Olivia was implying. Natalia turned her face to Doris. "Are you saying that she uh, she..."

"Oh yeah, she slipped out of one hole and reentered in the other." Olivia finished for her, biting back another chuckle. "That's not the funny part though. Apparently Doris shot away from the girl so fast she hit her head on the wall causing the glass of water on the shelf above her to come crashing down on top of her." She stated, causing herself to go into another fit of laughter.

Try as she may, Natalia couldn't stop a laugh of her own from bubbling up. "Oh my."

Isabel was hiding her mouth behind her hand as she too found the story a bit hilarious.

"Alright you three." Doris said dryly. "It's not that funny."

"Oh, but it is. Can you show Natalia and Isabel the face you made? That was the best part." Olivia joked with her friend.

"Can it Spencer. Or would you like me to share your little saran wrap escapades with Josh with your wife and her sister."

Natalia looked down at her wife with a raised brow. "Saran wrap?"

"Don't ask. Thanks a lot Wolfe."

"Anytime Spencer." Doris replied with a wry smile.

"It sounds like you two have some wild stories between you." Isabel commented.
