The backyard was buzzing with activity. Trish, sporting miniature overalls and a bright pink watering can, was giggling as she chased butterflies around a patch of newly planted lavender. Megan, kneeling by a flowerbed, turned to smile at Lindsay, who stood a bit apart, a half-finished cup of tea in her hand.
"Looks like someone's enjoying herself," Megan said, her voice warm.
"She adores it," Lindsay replied, a wistful smile touching her lips. "Lena always said a garden is a child's first playground."
Megan watched as Trish carefully watered a tomato plant, the image overlapping with a fading memory of a younger Lindsay, her hands lovingly tending to rose bushes. Perhaps there had always been more to her than the socialite persona.
"Would you like to help?" she offered, gesturing towards the open seed packets. "It's good for fine motor skills."
Lindsay hesitated for a moment before nodding. As she knelt next to Megan, their shoulders brushed. A surge of warmth, unexpected and unwelcome, shot through Megan. She glanced at Lindsay, finding her cheeks flushed, a lock of hair falling across her face.
Megan reached out, gently tucking the strand behind Lindsay's ear. Their eyes met, and for an electrifying moment, time seemed to stand still.

Reflections of You
After some rustling inside the bathroom, the door finally opens and I almost drop the clothes I'm holding. Kameron only has a towel wrapped around his waist, droplets of water dripping from his hair, down his chest, and disappearing underneath his towel. I try not to follow the path of one of the drops of water. It takes all of my self-control to look him in the eyes and no where else. I have a boyfriend. Austin. Remember him? "What do you what?" His voice is somehow even hotter. It's matured now. It's deep and a bit rough. "What does it look like? I need to shower." I say back, gesturing with the clothes I'm holding. "Shouldn't you be going to bed?" "I'm not a little girl anymore. I don't have a set bedtime." I narrow my eyes at him. He's always treated me like I'm his best friend's annoying little sister. "Yeah, I can tell." He suddenly says, suggestively running his eyes down my body. I try not to shiver from the feel of his eyes on me. I clear my throat to get his eyes back to mine. "You can move now." "Oh, can I?" He raises an eyebrow and I glare at him in return. "Relax, little girl, I'm messing with you." He rolls his eyes before walking past me. I can smell the scent of his body soap on him. Fresh, clean, and earthy with a hint of spice. I can't help but glance behind me and watch him go into his room. I can already tell this vacation is going to be a disaster. -Not revised yet, may be spelling errors & mistypes -Also on Inkitt -Dual POV

*Isabelle* Willow met my lips halfway, her lips were soft, exciting, and pillowy against my own. I could feel the soft tickle of her breath beneath my nose. I deepened the kiss as warmth blossomed in my chest. But the image of Freya crossed my mind and I pulled out breathing hard * I'm sorry, Freya....." " oh don't stop darling, I do love watching before I join the action " a voice interrupted behind me. I turned around to see Freya standing at the door. The dominance, the pet name ."

Alex's Girl [Lesbian]
"Are you... lost?" Someone asked, her tone impatient. I stopped scanning the room to find the woman behind the voice. I blinked. She had the most luminous blue eyes I had ever seen. Even in the dim glow of the bar they glowed brightly, like her pupils were some type of smooth stone at the bottom of a clear blue ocean. Within her blue there flickered tiny speckles of silver, which gave her an icy, somewhat stony appeal. But it was her slight, lopsided smile that erased any signs of wanting to be alone. No wonder this bar was so popular. "Uh, no," I said, holding up the Help Wanted sign I had snagged from the front window. The woman's cool eyes flickered between the sign and me. She didn't say anything, only looked slightly thoughtful as slender fingers raked through her long blonde hair. "What can you do?" She finally asked, definitely not expecting me to be able to do much of anything at all. She'd be right. "Anything and everything," I answered-lied-instantly, hoping I didn't look too desperate, didn't sound too eager. To be perfectly honest, I hadn't worked a day in my life. My hands were used to weekly manicures not hard labor. But desperate times call for desperate measures. The blonde appeared thoughtful again. Those magnificent eyes gave me a once over, slow and steady. You could see the cogs turning in her head as she considered it. I decided to try and sound more convincing. "I have many skills," I added. Okay, so I stole that from Xena, but I was hoping it worked as well for me as it did for her. The blonde lifted a sculpted brow and the smile was, once again, back on her lips. She seemed amused. Maybe she was a Xena fan? "Alright... I'll start you off cleaning the bathrooms, sweeping the floors, doing the dishes..." Crap.Complete
The Majors
The Third installment of All In and Nobody Else. "I thought you were tired?" She asked me. "I am," I said as I got between her legs. "So then stop it," she said as I pushed up the dress she had on. We had went shopping on our 3 day high adventures. She been teasing me too. She needed a break so we took one after the day of food and sex. "Mrs Major," I said. She groaned. As I ran my hand over her girl. I smirked. The duck tape kind of fucked her up. She gripped my wrist. She nodded her head to my phone. "Hang it up then," I said. "Your closer," she said as I slowly rubbed her clit. "You suppose to convince me to move ya sister in my crib," I said as I looked down at her clit. I bit my lip. I blew on it and watched it jumped. She hissed. "Fuck," she mumbled and grabbed the phone. "Come on Thrill saw you cum and he said it was super nice," Heaven said.Complete
Lynn (GirlxGirl)
"Know what I was thinking?" Lynn said as she waited in the line of the grocery store with her friend Diana. "What's that?" "Being with a women." "Being with a women how?" Diana asked getting a feeling that she already knew the answer to that but needed clarification. "Sexually." "Okay so when are we doing this?" "Huh?" Lynn asked shocked. "Girl you know I've been wanting to tap that ass for many years now." Lynn smiled but was serious when she said. "I can't sleep with you."Complete
