You Go Down Smooth

Whole Lotta Lovin'

It took Normani all of 3 seconds – 1 second to process that this was y/n, 1 second to realize what was happening, and 1 second to figure out what she was going to do about it – before she was leaping into the brunette's arms. Her own arms thrown around Y/n's neck, holding on for dear life, she wrapped her legs around her waist as the girl's hands gripped under her thighs to hold her steady. She buried her face between Y/n's head and her right arm trying to hide her tears, but her audible sobs and the way her chest shuttered told the story of how overwhelmed she truly was.

"What took you so long?" she managed to get out between sniffles.

She felt Y/n's body shake with a soft laugh before she felt the vibrations of her words throughout her chest.

"I got lost." She said planting a kiss on the exposed skin just below the dark skinned girl's neck.

Normani giggled, nuzzling the side of her face against Y/n's ear and her hair. "How do you know you're not still lost?"

She felt the girl's hands squeeze at her thighs as she spoke.

"I feel like I've been lost my whole life until now."

Normani pulled back to face her, those wide hunter green eyes that she could have sworn were lighter in pictures but now seemed so deep and dark like a hurricane brewing. She felt herself swept up in the winds of the storm and all she could do was lean forward to kiss the brunette's temples, one and then the other, as she wrapped her mind around it all. She brought her hands to either side of y/n's face, rubbing her thumbs over her cheeks and jawbone, taking in how very real it all was.

"God, you're perfect. You know that?"

And this time it was Y/n's turn to bridge the gap. She didn't even give the brown girl a chance to think before she closed the distance, crashing their lips together. She flicked her tongue over Normani's top lip, pressing her lips there, almost sucking on it before Normani's mouth opened and invited her in.

Normani was surprised how natural it felt to kiss her. She was surprised how at-home Y/n's tongue felt slipping into her mouth like she was sneaking her secrets. She moaned into the kiss and it seemed to spur the brunette on because she nipped at her bottom lip and Normani felt her thighs clench around her waist.

Okay, gotta get down. This can't happen here. Get it together Kordei.

She moved her legs to get down, and she felt Y/n's palms glide from her thighs to her ass cheeks and then up to her small of her back.

"Follow me..?" Y/n asked.

"Anywhere." It was the only answer she would EVER have for this girl.

I will follow you anywhere.

***

They had made it to the front of the house where there was a group of people leaving, now, and as they moved towards the sidewalk, y/n in front of Normani like she was in protector-mode, Normani felt someone push past her from behind and charge at Y/n.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!" the girl yelled as she pushed the brunette. "Cosima? REALLY?! How long have you been holding on to this, y/nn??! Are you a glutton for fucking punishment?!"

Y/n turned, her eyes a dimmer shade than moments ago, her hands up in front of her.

"Maia! Wait...I.....I can explain. Now is.....not the time."

"OH NO! I think now is the PERFECT time because I'm getting ready to leave and I'd like to know everything before I cut you BOTH off!"

Normani stood there, hoping to blend in with her surroundings, a crowd of onlookers gathering for the show. She wasn't sure what or who this girl was to Y/n - Benefits girl, maybe? - but she knew she was livid. And by the look on Y/n's face, she could tell that this was something she'd been hoping to avoid. For a while, probably.
