“We’ll make a new plan. We have to try,” Caitlyn said as the rain poured down from the sky above.
“We tried, okay? It wasn’t enough. Topside and bottom. Oil and water. That’s all there is,” Vi replied as she averted her gaze.
“What about us?” Caitlyn asked pleadingly as she stared over at the brash and impulsive woman who had turned her world upside down over the last few days.
Vi hesitated for a moment before she responded. And Caitlyn desperately hoped that her reluctance meant that she could feel it, too. Caitlyn felt more alive during her time with Vi than she ever had before. She didn’t want to say goodbye. Not now. Not like this.
“Oil and water. It wasn’t meant to be,” Vi finally replied as she turned to leave. Caitlyn absorbed her words and was suddenly overwhelmed by an ache deep in her chest.
“You’re just saying that,” she said, her voice shaking as she challenged Vi to pause and reconsider her stance. Yes, Caitlyn was an Enforcer. And yes, her mother was a member of the Council. She knew that. And she realized that she was an inextricable part of and participant in the system that had failed Vi and everyone else in the undercity in countless ways. But she still hoped that Vi might find some way to separate all that from whatever was happening between them.
“Do yourself a favor, Cupcake. Go back to that big, shiny house of yours and just… forget me, okay?” Vi replied as she pulled her hood over her head and slowly walked away.
Caitlyn stood there in silence as she watched Vi leave. She wanted to run after her. She wanted to take her by the hand and beg her to stay. She wanted to make a thousand promises about all the ways she would fight to keep her safe. But she knew there was nothing she could do or say to convince Vi that they deserved a chance to explore the undeniable pull they felt toward one another.
Vi had made her decision. She would return to the Lanes.
And Caitlyn supposed she had no choice but to return to the life she had before the two of them ever met.
Caitlyn walked home in the rain completely dejected that night and did her best to keep the tears in the corners of her eyes from spilling down her cheeks.
As soon as she arrived back home, Caitlyn made her way to her room, pulled off her uniform, and furiously threw it down onto the bathroom floor. Then she reached into the shower and turned the water on as hot as it could possibly go. She was still shivering from the hour she spent walking in the rain after Vi left. She was devastated by her departure and a heavy ache lingered in her chest.
Caitlyn stepped into the steaming hot shower and pressed her palms into the marble wall as the water warmed her cold skin. She felt the bandage on her left thigh dampen instantly and noticed a bright splash of red drip down against the shower tiles. Caitlyn had been so distracted by her efforts to make the Council acknowledge Silco for the sinister threat he was that she had forgotten all about her injury. It still hurt quite a bit, but the sting of her wound didn’t hold a candle to the pain she felt inside.
Caitlyn stood there and replayed her final moments with Vi over and over again in her mind. If only she had been able to convince Vi to stay. Caityln was nothing if not determined, and her resolve, paired with Vi’s passion and intimate knowledge of life in the Lanes, could have made them a remarkable force for change. She knew that together they would have found a way to make the Council see reason and finally start to dismantle the violent crime lords and gangs that kept the people of the undercity in constant fear.
And while these were all certainly important things that she did hope for, Caitlyn also knew that her reasons for wanting Vi to stay with her weren’t anywhere near altruistic. She wasn’t sure exactly when or how it happened, but… she cared for Vi. Deeply. And something in her gut told her that Vi felt the same. Only Vi wasn’t willing to let herself believe it was possible for the two of them to be together. Caitlyn understood why, of course, but that didn’t make it any easier to watch her walk away.
Caitlyn felt her lip begin to quiver and she closed her eyes and tried to forget the hopeless expression on Vi’s face before she turned and walked away. With her eyes still shut tight, she reached for the shower valve and turned it off.
And then she heard Vi’s voice.
“Mind turning that back on for me, Cupcake? I’m fucking freezing,” Vi said with a smirk as her red leather jacket fell to the floor and she kicked off her boots.
“V-Vi? You… you came back?” Caitlyn asked in disbelief as the pink haired woman lifted her shirt over her head and then quickly unbuckled her belt and stepped out of her pants. And when Caitlyn saw Vi completely bare before her, she could hardly catch her breath.
“I came back,” Vi replied as she opened the shower door and stepped inside. She moved slowly but deliberately toward Caitlyn and gently pushed her back against the shower wall before she pulled the valve to the right and turned the water on again. Vi tilted her head back slightly and let the hot water rush down her face and hair. Then she wiped her eyes and smiled warmly as she looked into Caitlyn’s eyes.
“I… I didn’t think I’d ever see you again. And after what you said about oil and water, I… I just…” Caitlyn trailed off and shyly covered her body with her arms. She was almost afraid to let Vi see just how much it meant to her that she changed her mind and how happy she was to be near her again.
“I know what I said, Cait. And to be honest, I still think it might be true. But maybe… just for tonight… maybe we can both be water?” Vi offered with a hopeful look in her eyes as she stepped closer and rested her hands low on Caitlyn’s hips. And Caitlyn’s body shivered involuntarily as the strong, calloused hands she had grown to admire over the last few days caressed her skin.
“What do you say, Cupcake?” Vi asked as she bit her lip and looked up toward Caitlyn’s mouth eagerly. Caitlyn’s mind was racing and her heart was nearly beating out of her chest. There was nothing she wanted more than the woman standing in front of her right now.
She just had to be brave enough to say yes.
“Come here,” Caitlyn replied as she slid her hand behind Vi’s neck and then leaned in and pressed a slow, sensual kiss against her lips. And Vi tasted even better than Caitlyn had imagined. Vi closed the remaining gap and pressed her breasts up against Caitlyn’s wet chest as her hands slid up the Enforcer’s back. Then Caitlyn took the opportunity to deepen the kiss as she coaxed Vi’s mouth open by sliding her tongue across her upper lip.
“Mm,” Vi moaned into the kiss as Caitlyn’s tongue slipped into her mouth and brushed against hers. And the sound of Vi’s arousal sent a rush of heat straight down to Caitlyn’s center.
“I’m so glad you came back. I couldn’t stop thinking about you” Caitlyn said as she momentarily broke the kiss before she tugged gently on Vi’s hair, then kissed and sucked on her exposed neck.
“Oh, yeah? Show me…” Vi teased as she reached for Caitlyn’s breasts and squeezed them firmly, rolling her nipples between her fingers. And she hummed quietly when she saw the effect it had on Caitlyn.
“F-fuck, Vi,” Caitlyn whimpered as she grabbed Vi by the shoulders and then pinned her against the wall. The warm water continued to pour down their bodies as Caitlyn’s lips travelled from Vi’s neck down to her breasts. She took one in her mouth and sucked hard on the nipple before she flicked it playfully with her tongue. Vi laced her fingers through Caitlyn’s wet hair and she sighed softly at the sensation of her skilled mouth against her chest. Once she had finished tasting and teasing her breasts, Caitlyn alternated between soft kisses and hard suction as she worked her way down to Vi’s center.
“May I?” Caitlyn asked as she looked up into Vi’s hungry eyes.
“Yes! God, yes! Please, Cait…” Vi replied as she pulled Caitlyn’s face toward her pussy. Caitlyn quickly wrapped one of her arms around Vi’s thigh and lifted her leg up to rest on her shoulder. When she was satisfied with the position and angle, she leaned in and slid her tongue up against Vi’s throbbing clit. Vi’s breathing grew heavy and her body trembled as Caitlyn stroked her sensitive bundle of nerves over and over again in an intoxicating pattern.
“Mm. Yeah, Cupcake. Just like that! F-feels so good,” Vi whined as she rode Caitlyn’s face. Her fingers were still tangled in the Enforcer’s hair as she rocked her hips back and forth against her warm, wet tongue. And Caitlyn felt drunk with lust as she savored the incredible taste of Vi’s arousal on her lips.
She wanted more.
Caitlyn slid her tongue down to Vi’s entrance and pushed it inside of her and Vi gasped in surprise before a low moan escaped her lips. Caitlyn could feel Vi’s walls clenching around her tongue as she continued to thrust into her center and she felt dizzy with desire when she noticed Vi’s thigh shaking frantically against the side of her head.
“You taste so good. Mm. I want you to come for me now. Please, Vi. Let me taste all of you” Caitlyn said through ragged breaths before her tongue returned to Vi’s dripping wet cunt and curled inside her.
And Caitlyn’s gentle encouragement paired with the warm sensation of her tongue thrusting deep into Vi had her coming completely unraveled just moments later.
“Oh! Oh, fuck… Mm… Cait! Cait! OH, GOD” Vi cried out as her release poured into Caitlyn’s mouth. And Caitlyn realized she would be content to stay there between Vi’s thighs drinking up the sweet nectar of her climax for the rest of her days.
But Vi had different plans.
She pulled Caitlyn up into her arms and swiftly thrusted her tongue into her mouth, eager to taste and lick her own pleasure off the Enforcer’s swollen lips.
“Mm. That felt amazing, Cait” Vi sighed as she stared deeply into Caitlyn’s beautiful bright blue eyes. And Caitlyn couldn’t hide the blush that rose to her cheeks or the proud grin on her face.
“I want you, Cupcake. I want to make you feel good, too” Vi said huskily as the tips of her fingers traced lazy circles across Caitlyn’s wet skin. Caitlyn’s mind was suddenly overwhelmed by all the different ways she imagined Vi touching her and making her come undone. And she couldn’t wait a second longer to surrender to heat and tension that had been building inside her since Vi stepped into the shower.
“Come with me” Caitlyn said, licking her lip as she turned off the shower. She reached down and took Vi’s hand and then guided her out of the bathroom and straight to her bed. Caitlyn’s mind flashed back to the day before when they had laid here together. Vi had been so vulnerable and soft with her in those moments. She still remembered how smooth Vi’s cheek felt against her fingers.
Caitlyn gently pushed Vi down onto the bed and watched as the confident woman before her sat back against the headboard and then beckoned her over by suggestively curling two fingers.
“How do you want me, Vi?” Caitlyn asked as she stepped closer to the bed and then slowly climbed up onto the mattress.
“Get over here and find out” Vi teased as she reached for Caitlyn and pulled her over to straddle her lap. Caitlyn felt small water droplets from her wet hair trickle down her naked back and noticed a familiar warmth pooling between her thighs as she made herself comfortable. Her clit was absolutely aching by now, and the slight contact she felt when she let her center drop down against Vi’s mound made her whine quietly in anticipation.
“I want you to fuck yourself on my fingers, Cait. Use me” Vi said seductively as her strong hands caressed the soft skin of Caitlyn’s trembling thighs. A moment later, Vi slid one of her hands all the way up Caitlyn’s body until her hand rested gently against her jaw.
“Open up for me, Cupcake” Vi said with a smirk. Caitlyn’s mouth dropped open instantly and Vi promptly pressed two fingers in and moaned when she felt the Enforcer’s tongue lick them and cover them with her saliva. Caitlyn sucked hard on Vi’s fingers and felt a white heat building within her when she imagined how good these same fingers would feel pressed deep into her core.
Vi withdrew her fingers slowly and then immediately slid them down to Caitlyn’s slick folds. She felt lightheaded in the best possible way as Vi’s fingers circled around her swollen clit.
“Oh, Vi! Mm. Yes” Caitlyn moaned as she pushed herself down against Vi’s hand. Her eyes were closed as she let herself melt into the pleasure she felt between her legs, but she could feel Vi watching her hungrily just the same.
“You’re so wet for me, Cait. Are you ready for me?” Vi asked hopefully before she leaned forward and sucked roughly on one of Caitlyn’s nipples.
“Yes! Please, Vi. I want this. I need to feel you inside of me” Caitlyn begged as she pushed her chest impossibly closer so that Vi could take her breast even more fully into her mouth. The warmth of her tongue against her breast and the wet fingers flicking her clit might have been enough to push Caitlyn over the edge, but she held back. She wanted to do exactly what Vi asked her to do. She wanted to be good for her.
Caitlyn pushed herself up slightly so that her center hovered just above Vi’s thigh. Then she reached for Vi’s wrist and slid her hand down further until her fingers were aligned with her entrance. And Vi took the gesture as the eager invitation it clearly was and slowly pushed her fingers inside of Caitlyn. And the deep sigh of pleasure and satisfaction that came from the Enforcer’s throat caught them both off guard. Vi curled her fingers slightly and applied pressure against Caitlyn’s front wall, whining in awe when she felt how soaking wet and tight she felt around her fingers.
“It’s all yours now, Cupcake. Take it” Vi said as she licked her lips and then slid her free hand around Caitlyn’s backside to squeeze her ass. Caitlyn rested her hands on Vi’s strong shoulders and then began to rock her hips down against the firm fingers that were deep inside her.
“Vi! Mm. Oh, God” Caitlyn panted as Vi’s fingers continued to plunge into her every time she pushed herself down against her hand. Caitlyn felt beads of sweat building across her chest and she breathed heavily as she vigorously rode Vi’s fingers.
“You’re doing so well for me, Cait. Keep going. I want to see you fall apart on top of me” Vi whispered. And the praise and the hungry, yet affectionate look in Vi’s eyes quickly brought Caitlyn to her climax.
“Fuck! I… I’m c-coming! Oh, Vi! Vi” Caitlyn whimpered as her orgasm rushed through her body and her release gushed out against Vi’s strong hand.
“That’s it, Cupcake. Let go now. I’ve got you” Vi said as she pulled Caitlyn closer and held her tightly as the waves of euphoria overtook her completely. Caitlyn leaned down and rested her head against Vi’s shoulder as she caught her breath.
“Vi… that was… I mean, I never… not like that” Caitlyn struggled to say as she collected herself. And the soft sound of Vi’s laughter warmed her heart.
“C’mere” Vi said as she pulled Caitlyn down into her arms and held her close.
“I know I said it before, but… I really am glad you changed your mind, Vi. It feels so good to be in your arms. I was so scared I’d lost you” Caitlyn said as a single tear slid down her cheek and landed on Vi’s chest. And Vi was quiet for a moment before she replied.
“I’m here now, Cait. I’m here” Vi said sweetly as she pressed a soft kiss against Caitlyn’s forehead.
And Caitlyn felt so peaceful and reassured by her words that she let herself slowly drift to sleep in the warmth of her arms.
But when she woke up the next morning, the warmth of Vi’s body was nothing more than a memory.
She was gone.
