Brooke stepped up to Sam and took one of her hands into hers, while the other reached up and gently wrapped around her neck.  Gazing intently into her eyes, Brooke traced her jawline with her right thumb, then closed the small distance between them, bringing Sam’s lips to her own, slowly, carefully.  Sam wrapped her arms around Brooke and soon they were lost in each other’s embrace, their tongues fluttering around in each other’s mouths, driving flares of electricity through their bodies.

All of a sudden, with no notable transition, at least to them, they were on the bed; Sam straddling Brooke with her thighs just above her stomach.  The blonde sat up slightly allowing Sam to remove the top she had been wearing, kissing her neck and shoulders along the way.  Sam then led her onto her back again, capturing her lips and guiding her with a gentle yet passionate exploration of her mouth. 

Sam shifted herself above Brooke, holding onto her as close as possible, even though she was already covering her every feature with her own.  Her hands then ran along the length of Brooke’s arms while each of their mouths devoured the other, slightly gyrating in unison.  Brooke met Sam’s hands as they arrived at her own and held on as she felt her temperature rising.

The brunette took the liberty of grazing her lips over the peaked breast underneath of her, to which Brooke slightly arched into, moaning Sam’s name at the painful pleasure her mouth and tongue were causing.  She then released her hands at arms-length and allowed her fingers to trail up and down Sam’s sides and back. 

Sam continued her path of kisses all the way up Brooke’s neck and jawline, where she then stopped and gazed into the blonde’s eyes, nose to nose.

“Brooke,” she whispered, as if asking the blonde’s most precious permission, her eyes taking on a revealing quality that said but one thing and one thing only:
I want to make love to you.

The blonde simply stared right back at her with faded eyes, taking her by the hand and guiding it up to her face.  She kissed the inside of her palm, and then one by one, she sucked on each of her fingers, first licking with her tongue and then finishing off with her lips, all the while never taking her eyes off of Sam’s.  For a moment, she held her gaze, searching deep into her soul, thus providing Sam with her answer.

Sam just as soon found her way to Brooke’s center, reveling in the silky moisture she had caused there.  Her other hand proceeded to massage Brooke’s breast, working away at her tenderness while bringing her closer and closer to her climax.  It didn’t take long before Brooke was ready to come, panting and moaning Sam’s name over and over again.  She felt Brooke tense up inside, and just then an explosion sent her shuddering back onto the bed, shivering and gasping for air. 

“Oh my god Sam,” was all Brooke could utter before she placed Sam’s fingers inside of her, begging to get her off again.  Sam had ignited this insatiable desire inside of her and it seemed she just could not get enough of her.  Sam immediately complied, probing her fingers inside and all around her, before removing her hand from Brooke’s chest and making her way downward.

She found the hardened nub inside of the blonde and proceeded to tease it with her tongue.  She wasn’t about to make Brooke wait any longer however, so she took her fingers and placed them inside while simultaneously sucking at the nub inside her lips.  All she could hear was, “Oh go – oh, ohmygod. Sam. Sam.”  That was more than enough for her to lick faster and harder until Brooke exploded once again, this time practically twitching on the bed from Sam’s astronomical palpations.
      
“You. are. unbelievable,” Brooke breathed out finally, before emitting a huge sigh.

“Yeah, well.. I guess it came from somewhere pretty special,” was Sam’s soft response.

Brooke lovingly placed a finger over Sam’s heart and looked up at her.  The brunette nodded and smiled, to which Brooke reached out and gently took hold of her face with both hands while simultaneously running her fingers through her hair.

“You never cease to amaze me,” Brooke shook her head.

“I aim to please,” Sam smiled and shrugged her shoulders before leaning in and brushing her lips over the blonde’s.  Brooke immediately grabbed Sam around the shoulders and rolled her onto her back, where she then proceeded to bring the brunette to unprecedented heights in sensual, mind-blowing pleasure.

With her voice barely rising above a whisper, Sam asked softly, “are you okay?”

Brooke nodded biting her lip, her eyes glossing over with tears she didn’t want to cry.  Any efforts to hold them back however, were soundly defeated.

“Brooke.. what’s wrong?” Sam asked gently.

“I don’t know,” she whispered, her voice cracking.  “God, I’m sorry.  It’s just…”  She continued stumbling over her words, shaking her head.  “I’m…” 

Sam waited patiently with gentle eyes, stroking her hair, while she struggled to find the words.

“I’m sorry, Sam… that was the most beautiful, I – I’ve ever… I don’t know .”

Sam wiped the slight tears that had rolled down Brooke’s face, and wisped a few stray hairs away from her cheek.

“Why would that make you sorry?” she asked softly.

“Because.  For the first time in my life I don’t feel.. incomplete.  It’s just, there’s this, emptiness, inside of me..  and just, being with you… it’s not even like you fill it up Sam… you just, you make it disappear like it was never even there to begin with.”  She paused, as her eyes welled up with tears.  “And I’m so scared of walking away from you and never being able to feel the way I do when I am with you again.”

At that moment, Sam’s eyelids fluttered, trying to stave off the tears that were now finding their way down her cheeks; she’d never heard anything so beautiful, so poignant; she opened her mouth to speak, but Brooke brought her finger up to her lips to stop her.  The tears were now streaming down Brooke’s face, gazing back at her with the most painful look Sam had ever seen.

“Tonight.. was beyond, everything I’d ever hoped or dreamed it would be.  And you.. god you are
so beautiful Sammy… you are.”  She paused, even more hurt than before.  “But I.. I can’t do this.”  Her words sent a lightening bolt ripping through Sam’s stomach, lingering about and torturing her with excruciating pain.  The blonde turned away and slid off the bed as Sam uttered a painfully incredulous, “what?”

“I’m sorry Sam.” Brooke mumbled so low it was almost ominous.

“So, so, you’re pushing me away, is that it?”

Brooke stopped with her back to Sam on the bed and closed her eyes, feeling the hot tears running down her cheeks.  Without saying a word, she started to walk away.

“Brooke..”  Sam got up out of bed and started after her, grabbing her arm and turning her around to face her.  “Is that what you’re gonna do?” she asked, her voice breaking with every single word.  “You’re just gonna walk away from me?”  Brooke stood there, still in Sam’s grasp, unable to look at her; she couldn’t bare to see the pain in her eyes.  She wanted to shake her head in the worst way, but something inside just wouldn’t let her do it.

“It’s a little late for that don’t you think?” Sam asked so painfully it practically shattered Brooke to pieces.  She let go of her arm, causing Brooke to look up at her swollen eyes and tear-stained cheeks.  It took every bit of self-control Brooke had ever known not to reach out and wipe Sam’s tears away.

Sam began studdering confused, inaudible phrases.. “I just don’t understand.. how.. I mean.. you.. I ju – “

“I love you Sam,” Brooke interrupted with tears streaming down her face, stopping her completely; time stood still as she then uttered these final words.  “…And I can’t.”

Sam’s heart literally dropped to the floor.  She looked up at Brooke with eyes that were confused, touched, desperate and hurt, all at the same time.  For an eternal moment it seemed, they just stared at each other.. unable to do or think of anything else.

Sam’s chin was quivering, trying to fight her way through trembling tears. 

“Brooke…”
