Read on AO3

When Caitlyn wakes up, she’s impossibly warm. She also feels… strangely well rested. Upon opening her eyes, she realises a few things. The first being that Vi is wrapped around her like the cuddliest creature. The second is that there is sun streaming in behind her blinds. And the third is that she slept the night through. For the first time in probably years.

After they had finished at the planetarium, Caitlyn had driven them home in comfortable silence, Vi’s hand on her thigh the entire time. They had got out of the car and Vi had kissed her and before Caitlyn knew it, she was leading Vi back up the stairs to her room and sharing more orgasms and kisses.

They fell asleep sometime around two, maybe three, and Caitlyn feels the most content she’s ever felt in her entire life.

Vi is sound asleep in her arms, her breath warm against Caitlyn’s neck. Her naked back is on display, the sheet slung low around her hips. Caitlyn gently brushes Vi’s hair out of her face, letting her fingers trail down her back, tracing random patterns over her tattoos. She loses herself in the repetitive motion, finding it very soothing.

It’s a while later before Vi wakes up. She wakes slowly. Her breathing changes ever so slightly, but her eyes stay firmly closed. Then her legs move, and her arms, and her eyes slowly open as she probably realises she’s very much lying on top of Caitlyn in the best hug she’s ever received.

“Sorry,” Vi mumbles, pulling back. She yawns and stretches her arms above her head.

“What are you sorry for?” Caitlyn asks, turning onto her side to face Vi.

“I know you don’t like people staying over.”

“One night stands with a stranger, no,” Caitlyn replies. “But you’re not a stranger, and this isn’t a one night stand, is it?”

Vi looks at her, her gaze seeking something but Caitlyn doesn’t know what exactly. “No,” she eventually says. “No, it isn’t.”

Caitlyn smiles. “Good.” She sits up and stretches her arms and then rolls her neck. “Besides, that is the best sleep I’ve had in I don’t know how long.”

“Yeah, me too,” Vi replies. They stare at each other for a beat before Caitlyn leans over, closing the gap and kissing Vi softly.

She gently pushes Vi back into the bed, their legs tangling together as they move. She kisses down Vi’s neck, letting her teeth scrape over her tattoo.

“Can I fuck you?” Caitlyn asks, peppering kisses across Vi’s shoulder, lingering until she hears Vi’s breathy response.

“Yeah,” Vi says. “Yeah.”

Caitlyn smiles against Vi’s skin, moving down to take a nipple into her mouth. She tugs on it with her teeth, making Vi arch into her.

“Cait,” Vi moans. “Do that again.”

Caitlyn complies, tugging on her nipple. Her free hand comes up to play with the other, tugging it as well. Vi’s breathy moans fills the room and it takes all of Caitlyn’s strength not to just bury her face between Vi’s legs and eat her out.

She pulls back, blowing on the wet nipple, watching it harden even more. She presses a lingering kiss to the side of Vi’s breast before sitting up. She reaches into the bedside drawer for a harness and plucks it out.

“What colour do you want?” Caitlyn asks, dropping the harness on the bed.

Vi leans over, peering into the drawer. “That rainbow one,” she says with a grin. Caitlyn grabs it and slides it into its spot before securing the harness around her body.

As she swipes lubricant over the toy, Vi settles back against the pillows, her legs moving to either side of Caitlyn’s. Her pussy is soaking wet already and Caitlyn can’t help but reach out and touch her. She dips her index finger into Vi’s entrance, feeling how wet she is before dragging the digit up to gently rub her clit.

“I’m ready,” Vi whines. “Come on.”

“Patience, darling,” Caitlyn says. She’s glad to see that the pet-name seems to have the same effect on Vi during the day as it did in the evening.

Caitlyn positions the toy at Vi’s entrance and slowly pushes in. She can’t help but watch as the toy disappears inside of her. It’s mesmerising. She thrusts her hips experimentally, unable to tear her gaze away from the sight of the toy disappearing into Vi with each movement.

Vi shifts beneath her, her legs moving to wrap around Caitlyn’s body. She shifts, bracing herself on her arms over Vi, looking down at her. Vi’s legs shift higher, wrapping around Caitlyn’s middle, forcing Caitlyn to go deeper inside of her.

“Fuck, Vi,” Caitlyn moans. She kisses Vi once before kissing down her jaw as she keeps up a steady rhythm with her thrusts.

Vi’s hands slide over Caitlyn’s body, one moving to her ass, holding it, forcing Caitlyn to go harder and faster.

“Shit, Cait,” Vi whimpers. “You feel so good.”

The grip Vi has on her ass is sure to leave a mark and Caitlyn loves the thought of it. She purposefully bites down on Vi’s clavicle, leaving marks that she hopes will last days to remind Vi of this – of her.

The hand of Vi’s not on Caitlyn’s ass moves between them and she rubs at her clit. Caitlyn takes over, watching Vi’s face as she matches the movements of her thumb over the sensitive nub to the thrusts of her hips.

Vi’s hands grab at Caitlyn’s back, her fingers digging in as she comes. Her moans are loud, and she’s panting and swearing and it’s the best thing Caitlyn has ever heard. She slows her movements down before coming to a stop, staying buried inside of Vi. Vi’s eyes are closed, her breathing heavy, her fingers loosening their hold on Caitlyn’s back.

As she loosens her hold, Caitlyn slowly moves so she’s pulling out of Vi, and Vi moans. Caitlyn can’t help but watch as Vi’s entrance flutters around nothing. And before she knows it, she’s shifting on the bed and burying her face between Vi’s legs.

Liquid drips out of Vi’s entrance and Caitlyn’s tongue is there to lick it up. She moans at the taste, sliding her tongue as deep into Vi as it will go. Vi’s walls clench around her weakly. She licks and sucks and slides two fingers into Vi’s soaking entrance, watching them disappear with ease.

Vi’s whimpers fill the room and Caitlyn glances up at her as she flicks her tongue out to move against Vi’s clit.

“Cait.”

Vi’s hand comes down. She gently pushes Caitlyn’s hair out of her eyes and even though the angle is slightly awkward, she cups Caitlyn’s cheek. Caitlyn closes her eyes and sucks Vi’s clit into her mouth. Vi’s hand goes to the back of her head, keeping her in place. Caitlyn flicks her tongue against Vi’s clit until she can hear the telltale signs of Vi’s approaching orgasm.

Her fingers continue working her, crooking, and rubbing against her g-spot in a way that Caitlyn has come to know she loves.

“I’m…” Vi whines. Her hand tightens in Caitlyn’s hair and her hips move faster as she comes.

Her wetness covers Caitlyn’s fingers, her entire body twitching with the force of her orgasm.

Caitlyn slowly licks her clean, lingering every now and then on spots that make Vi moan.

“Oh fuck,” Vi says on a sigh as Caitlyn moves from between her legs. Her hands are covering her face as Caitlyn kisses over her stomach, moving upwards. She stops, resting her chin on Vi’s chest, between her breasts.

“I could literally do this forever,” Caitlyn comments, her lips finding Vi’s skin once more.

“I can tell,” Vi replies. Her hands drop away from her face and she pulls Caitlyn into her arms, hugging her. The toy awkwardly nudges between them, and Caitlyn pulls back just enough to undo the harness and throw it to the foot of the bed.

Vi’s kisses are hot and desperate, Caitlyn notices. Her hand moves to cup Caitlyn’s ass once more and Caitlyn pushes back into it.

“Tell me if you don’t want this,” Vi says softly.

“I want this,” Caitlyn says before Vi has even finished speaking.

Two of Vi’s fingers slip into Caitlyn from behind her. She’s soaking wet, she knows it, and from Vi’s moan, she knows it, too.

“So wet for me,” Vi says, kissing across Caitlyn’s jaw as best as she can, given the awkward angle.

Caitlyn knows she won’t last long. Vi’s fingers are experts. They know exactly how to move inside of her to make her come, and even though they’ve only been doing this for less than a day, Caitlyn trusts Vi with her body more than she’s ever trusted anyone else.

“Vi,” Caitlyn whimpers, pressing back harder into Vi’s hand.

The angle changes and Caitlyn clings to Vi as she comes, her entire body shaking with it. She all but collapses on top of Vi, breathing hard, and sweat sticking to her brow. Vi’s fingers slip out of her and Caitlyn moans at the loss. She buries her face in Vi’s sweaty neck, her lips finding the tattoo again. She kisses it softly before just resting her head on Vi’s shoulder.

Her stomach chooses that moment to let out a hungry gurgle and they both burst into laughter. “Would you like some breakfast?” she asks, pulling back.

“Not if you’re cooking,” Vi replies, reaching up to push Caitlyn’s hair out of her eyes. “I’ve heard horror stories from Powder.”

Caitlyn furrows her brow. “I’m not that bad,” she protests.

Vi’s hand gently comes up and her thumb presses over the crease between her brows. “Okay, Cupcake,” she says, leaning forwards to kiss Caitlyn again. “Let’s go get some breakfast.”

Unfortunately, this means putting on clothes. Caitlyn pouts a little as Vi puts the same tank top and underwear back on from the day before, but smiles when she realises that’s all she’s putting on.

Caitlyn herself pulls out clean knickers. She reaches into the back of her drawer for a pair of old plaid boxer shorts.

“These should fit you,” she says, holding them out to Vi. “Because I’m sure that underwear probably doesn’t feel that fresh anymore.”

Vi’s grimace is adorable. “Not really,” she replies, quickly changing into the boxers. They’re a little tighter around her thighs than they are on Caitlyn, but that’s because Vi’s thighs are glorious and thick. “I could just go home and get changed.”

“And leave me in the kitchen all by myself?” Caitlyn teasingly says.

Vi’s hands come to her waist. “I guess I can’t have you burning the kitchen down while I go and get changed.”

“Exactly,” Caitlyn agrees. She drapes her arms over Vi’s shoulders and dips her head to kiss her.

They stay there, just kissing for a few long moments and it’s only when Vi’s hands slide up to play with one of her nipples that Caitlyn realises that she’s standing just in a pair of knickers and nothing else.

“Breakfast,” she says, pulling back. “And I need a shirt.”

“No, I like you like this,” Vi says, both of her thumbs gently playing with Caitlyn’s nipples. “It’s easy access.” Her grin is cheeky and she dips her head to take one of Caitlyn’s nipples into her mouth.

Caitlyn sighs, her eyes closing reflexively, and one hand going to the back of Vi’s head. Vi sinks to her knees in front of Caitlyn and tugs down the underwear she just put on. Caitlyn grips Vi’s shoulder as she moves one of Caitlyn’s legs, draping it over her other shoulder. Caitlyn leans heavily back into her chest of drawers, feeling a little off kilter as Vi’s tongue flicks over her clit.

“Vi,” Caitlyn whimpers, rocking down into her eager mouth. She grips the back of Vi’s head, fingers tangling in the pink strands, holding her in place as she rolls her hips, desperate for it.

Vi hums against her, the vibrations going straight through Caitlyn. She rocks her hips faster, chasing that incredible feeling.

Caitlyn comes hard. Her hand slams down on the top of the dresser behind her, and she thinks she breaks something but she can’t bring herself to care. Not when Vi’s tongue is doing that and her wetness is soaking Vi’s fingers where they’re buried inside of her.

“Come here,” she says softly, fingers tugging Vi’s hair ever so slightly. Vi stands and Caitlyn kisses her hotly. She chases her taste on Vi’s tongue, moaning into her mouth.

“If we don’t go and get some breakfast,” Vi says, breaking the kiss. “We’re never going to leave this room.”

“I’m seeing no downside,” Caitlyn replies, leaning forwards to kiss Vi again. “You are in this room. And your mouth. And your tongue. And those fingers.”

“And all your toys,” Vi teases. “And your fucking sexy underwear. I can’t believe you spent all day in that yesterday.”

Caitlyn preens at that. “I had a woman to seduce,” she comments, slowly pulling back. “And it worked, so I call it a win.”

“It worked a treat alright,” Vi replies as she bends down to pick up Caitlyn’s underwear. She expects Vi to just pass it to her, but she helps her step into it, sliding the lacy fabric into place on Caitlyn’s body. She presses a kiss to her tummy before standing up fully. The action makes Caitlyn’s stomach swoop.

“Come on,” Vi says. “I’ll make you something delicious for breakfast.” She takes Caitlyn’s hand in her own, lacing their fingers together.

Caitlyn has the sense of mind to grab her robe before they exit her room.

“Spoilsport,” Vi teases as Caitlyn unsuccessfully tries to put it on as they walk down the stairs.

They enter the kitchen and Caitlyn fills her kettle with water before putting it on. She sets two mugs down and puts a teabag in each.

“I’m not sure how much food I have,” Caitlyn says, leaning against the counter behind her. “I do my shopping on a Sunday.”

“Yeah, Powder says I have to go with you this time,” Vi comments. She opens Caitlyn’s fridge and peers inside. “She gave me a list. Like I’m not the one who does all of the cooking.”

“She thinks it’s a way she can take care of you,” Caitlyn replies. “Since you’re always taking care of her.”

“That’s my job,” Vi says as she pulls items from the fridge and sets them on the counter top.

“It doesn’t always have to be,” Caitlyn states. “People who love you like to take care of you too.”

“She’s still a kid,” Vi says. “I’m the adult, it’s my job to take care of her.”

Caitlyn pushes herself off the counter and steps into Vi’s space. “You do it well,” she says, resting her hands on Vi’s shoulders. “But it’s okay to let other people take care of you, too.” She kisses Vi softly, trying to punctuate her point. “Now, what are you making me for breakfast?”

“How do omelettes sound?”

“Like perfection,” Caitlyn replies. She gently pats Vi’s butt as she moves back to the kettle that has finished boiling. She makes them their cups of tea and sets them aside and then pulls out the pan that Vi needs to use.

Vi moves around her kitchen like she’s done it a hundred times before. Caitlyn can’t help but just watch her. She moves with a grace that Caitlyn admires. If anyone were to see Vi in passing, they’d never be able to picture this side of her. They’d see her size, and her beautiful butch face and would just presume incorrect things. Caitlyn feels lucky to be able to experience this.

Breakfast is delicious and Caitlyn eats everything, startled at how hungry she is.

“It’s all the sex,” Vi comments when Caitlyn pulls out the remainder of the birthday cake from the fridge. “It uses a lot of energy.”

“I understand that,” Caitlyn says, setting a plate in front of Vi. “I just didn’t expect it.”

“I did say we’d need a whole weekend,” Vi points out as she grabs her cake with her hand and takes a large bite. Crumbs drop everywhere but Caitlyn finds she doesn’t mind, not when Vi looks so happy.

“I know,” Caitlyn replies with a nod. She slides her fork through her own slice of cake, taking a bite. “But there’s knowing and there’s knowing.”

Vi smirks, and it probably shouldn’t be sexy considering there is cake in the corners of her mouth, but Caitlyn’s pussy throbs all the same.

~*~

They spend their day having sex, chatting, watching Home Wreckers – something Caitlyn is stupidly proud to get Vi hooked on – and in the evening, Vi insists on teaching Caitlyn how to cook.

“This is the simplest meal to cook,” Vi insists.

Caitlyn is dubious, but when she sees Vi in her new Kiss The Cook apron they had fished out of the boot of her car, it’s hard to argue with her.

Vi had gone home to get changed and grab fresh underwear. Caitlyn had insisted on washing Vi’s other clothes as she was putting a load on herself. And when Vi returned, they had moved straight into the kitchen to get started on dinner.

It takes a bit of time, but Vi has so much patience, Caitlyn notices. She shows her how to peel the things that need to be peeled, how to cut the vegetables into perfect portions for cooking. Vi handles the meat – Caitlyn only had some chicken breast in her freezer that Vi said would work.

Caitlyn has the very important task of making sure the rice doesn’t boil over. Vi had been surprised when she realised Caitlyn didn’t have a rice cooker, but she quickly put water on to boil, telling Caitlyn they would do it ‘old school style’ – whatever that had meant.

But as they’re standing at the stove, Vi in her apron with her arms bare, and Caitlyn in front of the wok, she feels proud. She likes that she’s doing something that they’re going to eat. Something that she isn’t going to burn, or break, or fuck up in any way.

When they sit down to eat, Caitlyn doesn’t expect to feel so accomplished but she does.

“You’re a really good teacher,” Caitlyn comments as they eat.

Vi gives her a soft smile. “Dad taught me how to cook,” she says. “He has the most patience out of anyone I’ve ever met. Mum doesn’t have the patience. She gets frazzled. But not Dad. You wouldn’t think it, given his size. But people have always had a habit of underestimating him.”

“You take after him a lot,” Caitlyn says.

“Thanks.”

After they’ve had dinner, Caitlyn insists on washing up. She washes what she has to, and puts the rest in the dishwasher, turning it on. She puts away what she can and hangs her apron on the inside of the pantry door.

They settle onto the couch to watch some more television, relaxing into each other. Caitlyn feels the most relaxed she has in years.

“So now you know at least one meal,” Vi starts as the episode they’re watching finishes, her hands finding their way to Caitlyn’s waist. “You won’t starve this winter.”

Caitlyn smiles. “Winters in Ionia are a lot colder than this,” she says, dropping a kiss to Vi’s lips. “It’s practically summer out there compared to Ionia.”

“Oh, so you don’t want me to stay the night, is that what you’re saying?” Vi teases, loosening her hold on Caitlyn.

Caitlyn is quick to grab her arms, keeping them around her body. “Not at all. In fact, I’m feeling a little cold right now. Maybe you should warm me up?”

Kissing Vi’s smile is something Caitlyn could get used to. She shifts so she’s sitting in Vi’s lap. She kisses her hotly, moaning when Vi’s hands slide up the back of her shirt, caressing her skin.

“I think you should fuck me,” Caitlyn says softly.

“I’d love to,” Vi replies.

Caitlyn stands. “Wait right here,” she says, getting up. She hastily climbs the stairs to her room. She fishes out a harness and an orange, glittery dildo and the lubricant, and heads back down the stairs.

“This one,” she says, passing it to Vi.

She takes off her shirt and knickers, tossing them to the side while Vi hastily undresses and steps into the harness. She secures it around her body and swipes over the toy with some lubricant before putting it back down on the coffee table.

Caitlyn climbs back onto Vi’s lap. She guides the toy into herself and slowly exhales as her body gets used to the size. It’s a little bigger than the pink one they used the previous night, but Caitlyn can take it. She wants to feel Vi.

They start off slowly, Caitlyn raising her hips and lowering herself back down in steady movements. The more she grows used to the toy, the faster her movements become. She grips onto the back of the couch with one hand, the other moving to cup Vi’s face. She leans down, kissing Vi hotly.

Just as Caitlyn’s orgasm starts to build, Vi’s hands squeeze her hips, causing Caitlyn to stop.

“Am I hurting you?” Caitlyn asks, glancing down at Vi’s wide-eyed gaze.

She’s quick to shake her head. “No, baby, no,” she says, kissing Caitlyn’s shoulder. “I just… Can I fuck you from behind?”

That imagery is one that Caitlyn is quickly on board with. She climbs off Vi’s lap and lets herself be manoeuvred so she’s leaning over the arm of the couch. Vi slides back into her, and ohFuck! Vi!” Caitlyn moans, turning her face into her arm where it’s now resting on the back of the couch. She can feel her legs trembling, so she reaches a hand between her legs and starts rubbing her clit.

Her orgasm hits and Caitlyn has to grip onto the back of the couch to stop herself from falling face first into it. She pants heavily, her entire body tingling from the force.

Vi pulls out of her and Caitlyn moans again when Vi’s tongue slides into her from behind. Caitlyn can feel Vi’s entire face pressing into her. She’s going to come away completely soaked, but she doesn’t seem to care.

Caitlyn reaches down again to rub her clit as Vi’s tongue slides so deeply inside of her that it’s a wonder she can breathe.

Her orgasm is quick. Her legs tremble and this time she does collapse face first into the couch, her ass on full display for Vi, who seems content to lick her clean.

“Fuck that was hot,” Caitlyn mumbles into a cushion. “You might need to carry me upstairs. I don’t think I can move my legs.”

If there’s one thing about Vi, is that she won’t resist a challenge, Caitlyn notes. She scoops Caitlyn up, bridal style, into her arms, and carries her up the stairs. She’s put down on the bed so gently that Caitlyn has to marvel at it.

“Come sit on my face,” Caitlyn says softly. “I need to taste you.”

Vi smirks. “Okay,” she says. She steps out of the harness and climbs up onto the bed. Caitlyn shifts, getting comfortable. She’s only ever done it this way once before and it was wonderful. She can’t imagine it being anything less than incredible with Vi.

Once Vi is in position, Caitlyn raises her head to close her mouth around Vi’s pussy. She sucks on her clit, giving the nub a few flicks of her tongue, delighted when Vi presses down into her.

Satisfied that Vi isn’t going to hold back, Caitlyn decides not to, either. She touches every part of Vi that she can from the angle. Her hands stroke over Vi’s strong thighs, moving up to cup one of her breasts, teasing her nipple, drinking in Vi’s moans and whines.

When she’s had her fill of touching Vi (she’ll never have her fill, not really), she moves to slide two fingers into Vi’s entrance with ease. She fucks Vi with her fingers and moves to sucking her clit. Vi’s thighs start to tremble around her head a short while later, and she presses down harder into Caitlyn’s mouth as she comes, shaking and panting.

She collapses onto the bed next to Caitlyn, who licks her lips, satisfied.

“Fuck,” Vi says. “How are we so good at this?”

“Good bed chem,” Caitlyn replies easily.

Vi laughs at that and rolls into Caitlyn’s arms. “The best bed chem.”

~*~

Waking up next to Vi feels right somehow, Caitlyn thinks. She likes that she wakes up first because she gets to just admire Vi’s relaxed body. Her face is slack and she looks so peaceful. It does things to Caitlyn. She can’t help but push loose strands of Vi’s hair out of her face and then trail her fingers down Vi’s naked back.

They’re in the exact same positions as the previous morning, and it makes Caitlyn smile.

“Five more minutes,” Vi mumbles. She presses a kiss to Caitlyn’s shoulder and snuggles in impossibly closer. Caitlyn is helpless but to wrap her arms around Vi’s warm body.

They stay there for another hour, drifting in and out of sleep. Caitlyn’s stomach swoops pleasantly when Vi kisses her slowly when she’s fully awake.

The urgency she felt the morning before isn’t exactly gone, it’s just replaced with a gentle, steady hum of want.

Vi’s sleepy kisses are some of Caitlyn’s favourites, she decides.

When Caitlyn is lying there, panting, Vi’s bottom lip dragging over her clit as she lifts her head, she thinks that she wouldn’t mind doing this for as long as Vi will have her.

What she says instead is: “We’re out of groceries.”

Vi laughs, dropping her forehead onto Caitlyn’s hip. “Wow, Cupcake. Was the head that bad?”

Caitlyn lifts up onto her elbows. “What? No! I’m just thinking of yesterday morning and how we kept going until we literally needed to stop for food. But I have nothing in the house we can eat.”

Vi licks her lips as she gives a pointed look to Caitlyn’s pussy in front of her.

“Oh, you know what I mean,” she says and Vi grins. She presses a kiss to Caitlyn’s clit before shifting up the bed.

Caitlyn turns onto her side, facing Vi. She reaches out and cups Vi’s face with her hand before kissing her slowly. This is something else she’s come to love – the variety of kisses she experiences with Vi. The soft ones, the hot and desperate ones, and everything in between.

Before too long, Caitlyn is pushing Vi onto her back and settling herself between her legs. She doesn’t waste time, taking Vi’s clit into her mouth and sliding two fingers into her. Vi’s whines are like music to Caitlyn’s ears. Caitlyn can’t help but lose herself in it – she’s always loved eating someone out, but eating out Vi? It beats all of the other experiences she’s had. Vi’s taste, the way she clenches down around Caitlyn’s fingers, and right down to the way she says Caitlyn’s name – it all makes her never want to stop. Especially when Vi’s clit is throbbing against Caitlyn’s tongue.

The tug on her hair is the telltale sign that Vi is about to come, so Caitlyn speeds up her actions. Vi’s body arches off the bed, pressing down hard into Caitlyn’s mouth, riding through her orgasm.

She collapses against the pillows, panting heavily. Caitlyn smiles smugly and kisses her way back up Vi’s body, lingering in certain places before lying on top of Vi. Vi’s arms come around Caitlyn’s back, keeping her in place.

“Fuck, you’re so good at that,” Vi says, her breathing slowly returning to normal.

“Thank you,” Caitlyn replies smugly. She lifts her head and kisses Vi softly once more.

It takes another half an hour of trading kisses before they get out of bed. She watches as Vi pulls on underwear and trousers, and it’s a shame to see those tattoos disappear behind a shirt, but Caitlyn is already planning to worship those later when they get back home.

Vi turns around just as Caitlyn is pulling a long-sleeved turtle neck shirt on.

“No bra?” Vi comments.

Caitlyn shakes her head. “No.” Vi’s smirk makes Caitlyn want her all over again.

They eventually leave the house, taking Vi’s car as it’s bigger than Caitlyn’s, both armed with their shopping lists and drive-thru coffees and breakfast muffins. Every moment she can, Caitlyn has her hand on Vi’s thigh as they drive, fingers stroking idle patterns.

The grocery store is, thankfully quiet, and Caitlyn is grateful for that. She grabs a trolley and Vi automatically takes it from her.

“Where to first?” Vi asks.

“I usually start at one side and work my way down,” Caitlyn says.

They walk along the aisles, grabbing everything they need. Caitlyn knows it’s going to be harder later to separate everything, but at the moment, she doesn’t care. Not when she gets to slide her hand into the back pocket of Vi’s pants and just leave her hand there.

It shouldn’t amuse Caitlyn so much when Vi can’t reach something from the topmost shelf. In Vi’s defence, it’s ridiculous to have things that high, but Caitlyn loves it. She puts a hand on Vi’s shoulder and just stretches above her. It puts her boobs right in front of Vi’s line of sight, which is an entire perk itself.

“Here,” Caitlyn says softly, passing the box over. Vi puts it in the trolley and then turns back to Caitlyn, putting her hands on Caitlyn’s hips.

“You know,” she starts, leaning forwards to kiss Caitlyn’s neck. “This is a very sexy look on you.”

“What is?” Caitlyn asks, her voice a little breathy.

“This,” is all Vi replies with.

“Sorry, excuse me,” a voice behind Caitlyn says. She immediately steps out of the way and does a double take when she recognises who it is.

“Quinn!” she exclaims.

Quinn also looks startled. “Caitlyn, hi.”

“How are you?” Caitlyn asks. She had reached out a few times to Quinn after the Maddie incident in the courtyard, but hadn’t heard anything back from her. She figured that Quinn didn’t want to talk to her and just needed some time to process everything on her own.

“I’m okay,” Quinn replies. Her gaze darts behind Caitlyn. “Hi, Vi.”

“Hey,” Vi says with a nod.

“This is awkward, isn’t it?” Quinn says. She sighs and runs her hand over her head. “Look, I’m sorry for how everything with Maddie went down. I swear, I had no idea.”

“I believe you,” Caitlyn assures her, reaching out a hand to put on Quinn’s forearm. “If anything, I’m the one who is sorry that you got caught up in it all.”

Quinn nods. “Thanks,” she says. “I’m moving,” she adds. “I don’t think I can stay here in Piltover. But… Yeah. Just in case you tried to reach out again.”

“Hey,” Vi says softly, touching Caitlyn’s arm. “I’m going to keep going, let you two catch up.”

Caitlyn flicks her gaze to Vi and then nods. Vi takes her shopping list and gives her a warm smile before bidding Quinn goodbye.

Once she’s rounded the end of the aisle, Caitlyn turns back to Quinn.

“You two are cute together,” Quinn comments.

That stumps Caitlyn. “Oh. Umm, we… thank you,” she settles on. “So what about you? Are you going to continue university somewhere else?”

Quinn shrugs. She shifts her shopping basket on her arm and Caitlyn can practically feel the anxiety rolling off her. “I think I’m going to take a break for a bit. Everything… it was just a bit much, you know?”

Caitlyn nods. “I do,” she says, then quickly adds on: “But what Maddie did to you is horrific. I haven’t even heard of anything that has happened to her.”

“She’s not going to Stillwater, if that’s what you’re wondering?” Quinn says, levelling Caitlyn with a look.

“I honestly hadn’t thought about it,” Caitlyn says with a sigh. She tucks a hand of hair behind her ear. “What she did was illegal, but…” she trails off. “It’s hard because she violated you. And targeted me because of who I am.”

“Yeah,” Quinn says. “I’m in therapy. Because there’s no way I could work through all of that without some professional help.”

“Me too. Therapy, I mean,” Caitlyn replies. “It’s been a lot lately. And I can’t apologise enough for my part in it all.”

“For what it’s worth, I don’t regret our time together,” Quinn says. “But it’s all tinged with… her now.”

“I don’t regret it, either,” Caitlyn adds with a reassuring smile. “I know you’re moving, but I want you to know you can always reach out to me if you need to.”

Quinn nods. “Thanks,” she says. “It’s all still… well, let’s go with baffling. I never understood how someone could have that much hate in their heart. Did you know her dad was fired for sexual assault? He was harassing one of his junior staff members and she reported it straight to Cassandra, so it got dealt with swiftly.”

“I had no idea,” Caitlyn replies honestly. “I don’t know a lot of what goes on at Kiramman Corp, but I know that Mother has zero tolerance for bullying or harassment of any kind, but especially sexual harassment.”

“I found all of this out later,” Quinn says. “Maddie didn’t believe it, of course, which is why she had it out for the Kirammans. He was fired and wasn’t able to find another job, so his wife divorced him – and apparently you slept with her so that was the icing on the cake for Maddie.”

A slight flush creeps up Caitlyn’s face. “I honestly had no idea that Valerie was Maddie’s mother.”

Quinn shrugs. “I don’t think there’s anything to be sorry about there. She is hot.”

“Right?” Caitlyn agrees. They both giggle and it feels nice – lighter. “I’m still sorry you feel you have to leave town.”

Quinn shrugs. “When everyone knows your business, it’s hard to know who to trust… and I just realised who I’m saying that to.”

Caitlyn gives her a sympathetic smile. “Which is why I was using my best friend’s surname on anything whenever possible.”

“For what it’s worth,” Quinn starts. “I don’t care that you’re a Kiramman.”

“Thank you,” Caitlyn replies. “I’d better let you go. I’ve kept you long enough.”

Quinn gives her a small smile and Caitlyn steps forwards, wrapping her in a tight hug. “Take care of yourself.”

“You too,” Quinn replies, stepping out of Caitlyn’s hold.

Quinn walks off and Caitlyn just stares after her for a few moments. She turns around, heading in the other direction, intent on finding Vi.

She locates her in front of the freezers, looking at the many different ice cream options available.

“Hi,” Caitlyn says as she approaches.

The smile Vi gives her is beautiful. “You okay?” she asks, sliding an arm around Caitlyn’s waist. She drops a kiss to Caitlyn’s shoulder and Caitlyn turns to her, giving her a nod.

“Yes,” she replies. “That was just…” She sighs, turning so she’s fully in Vi’s arms. “I can’t imagine what she’s going through.”

“Yeah, that whole situation was rough,” Vi agrees. “I hope she finds what she’s looking for outside of Piltover.”

“Me too.”

They finish the rest of their shopping, and as Caitlyn predicted, it’s a little harder to separate their groceries, especially when Vi keeps insisting she didn’t get something, and that it’s Caitlyn’s.

“What should we do for lunch?” Caitlyn asks once Vi has returned from taking her own groceries home.

Vi’s phone rings, effectively interrupting them. “Hey, Pow.”

“Hey, loser,” Powder greets and Caitlyn can’t help but smile at her voice. “Are you at Cait’s?”

Caitlyn pops her head into the frame, waving. Powder smiles and waves back. “We just finished our grocery shopping.”

“Did you get everything on the list?” Powder asks seriously.

Vi nods. “Every last thing.”

“Good, I’m almost out of toothpaste.”

Caitlyn wanders up to her room, leaving the sisters to facetime in relative private. She can hear laughter every now and then and smiles to herself. It reminds her that she hasn’t spoken to Jayce in a while, so she sends him a text, just to check in.

It’s fifteen minutes before he texts back, and wishes her a happy early Solstice. He’s taking a little holiday with his mother, which she thinks is nice.

When she can no longer hear any voices, Caitlyn goes back downstairs to find Vi in the kitchen, already starting on their lunch. Sandwiches that are overflowing with deli meats and other delicious things are piled on a large plate.

“Feeding an army?” Caitlyn quips, sidling up to Vi and kissing her cheek.

Vi smiles at her. “Just want to make sure you’re all fed,” she comments. “I’ve got lots of plans for you.”

“Oh?” Caitlyn asks. She pours them a drink of juice each from the fridge and sets them down on the kitchen table.

“Yeah,” Vi replies. She separates their sandwiches onto two plates and brings them over to the table, setting one plate in front of Caitlyn.

She can’t help but smile when she sees that Vi has cut all of the sandwiches into triangles. She picks up her first one and takes a massive bite, barely containing her moan as she chews.

“So what are we doing this afternoon then?” Caitlyn asks.

“I thought we could take a short hike?” Vi replies. “The trails around here are great this time of year, and there’s always a spot with a great view.”

Caitlyn nods. “I’d like that,” she says. “I haven’t been for a run in a few days, so it’ll be nice to get out and get some fresh air.”

“That’s what I was thinking, too.”

As they eat, Vi fills Caitlyn in on how Powder’s skiing adventures are going so far. She sounds like she’s having a blast, which makes Caitlyn happy. She deserves to have a lovely weekend with Lux.

They’re clearing up when Caitlyn remembers she has something for Vi. She passes over a small box and Vi opens it, raising her eyebrows at its contents.

“A key?”

Caitlyn nods. “See, it even has your name on it,” she says, picking the key up from in the box. “I couldn’t get one with ‘Vi’ on it with such short notice before the Solstice, but I hope you don’t mind that it’s got Violet on it.”

“I didn’t think you knew my full name?” Vi asks.

“Of course I do,” Caitlyn replies with a soft smile. “I mean, Powder told me months ago, and then I saw your name in my mother’s ledger. I just figured you didn’t like to be called it, so that’s why I never said anything.”

Vi’s kiss is soft, if a little unexpected. “Okay, but, Cupcake, where is this key for?”

“For here,” Caitlyn says. She thought it was obvious, but as she thinks over it, she realises that she hadn’t actually said what it was for.

“Oh,” Vi says. Her tone is soft, but a little odd, and Caitlyn can’t exactly place it.

“This way you can come and go as you please, too,” Caitlyn explains. “You don’t have to wait for Powder or myself to let you in.”

Vi’s lips meet hers again and Caitlyn moans at the intensity of it. When the kiss ends, she feels a little dazed. She blinks slowly and Vi’s thumb comes up to swipe at Caitlyn’s bottom lip.

“Go get changed,” she says softly. “I’ll be back in a minute, I have to go home to get changed, too.”

“Okay,” Caitlyn replies with a nod. She watches as Vi walks away, twirling her new keyring around her finger.

Caitlyn heads up the stairs to her room to get changed into clothes suitable for hiking. She grabs her hiking backpack as well and makes sure she has everything she needs in it.

She’s just filling up two water bottles in the kitchen when Vi comes back in, looking ridiculously gorgeous with her hair swept back into a knot at the back of her head. She’s wearing a red, long sleeved plaid shirt over yet another tank top, and Caitlyn finds herself staring.

“Are you ready?” Vi asks.

“Almost,” Caitlyn replies. She puts the water bottles in her backpack and zips it up. She adds a couple of energy bars into a side pocket, and then some candy in another, figuring it won’t go astray.

They stop at the front hall closet and Caitlyn pulls on her hiking boots. She stands and glances at Vi, who is smiling at her.

“What?”

“Nothing,” Vi says. “You’re just cute. Come on, we’ll take my car.” Caitlyn nods, sliding her hand into Vi’s as they leave the house.

The drive is quicker than Caitlyn expects. She knows there’s lots of great places to hike in Piltover, but she didn’t expect to find one so close. The scenery reminds her that she should take Vi to her shooting range – she thinks Vi would love the forestry behind the Kiramman mansion.

They hold hands as they walk, which Caitlyn is grateful for. She hasn’t been hiking since she left Ionia, so it’s taking a little to get used to the terrain. Vi offered to take her backpack, too, which was wonderful of her. It helps Caitlyn be able to concentrate on just moving her feet in front of the other.

The higher they go, the colder the air gets. There’s a light dusting of snow on the tops of some bushes, and they pause at a flat spot to take it all in.

“I need to take some pictures of this,” Caitlyn says, sliding her phone out of her pocket. She takes some photos of the scenery, and then a sneaky one of Vi when she isn’t looking.

Vi glances over at her, smiling softly. She gets up in Caitlyn’s space, kissing her cheek noisily as Caitlyn takes photo after photo of them. In a moment of cheesiness, Caitlyn turns to face Vi, their lips slotting together as she takes a photo.

The phone is quickly slipped back into her pocket when Vi deepens the kiss. Caitlyn’s hands go to Vi’s waist, holding her close as they kiss. Vi kisses down her neck and Caitlyn’s breath stutters in her throat.

“Vi,” she says, squeezing her hips. “We’re in public.”

“So?” Vi says. “We’re literally the only ones out here.”

It would be so easy to give into the want, Caitlyn thinks. But she can’t bring herself to. Not only because they’re very much in public, but also because it’s cold up here, and she doesn’t fancy losing any of her clothing.

She grabs at Vi’s ass, squeezing a little before pulling back.

“I promise,” she says, kissing the tip of Vi’s nose. “That once we’re back from the hike, you can fuck me however you want. But I can’t have sex in public.”

Vi kisses her cheek and nods, stepping back. “Is that like a hard boundary, or just one for today?” she asks, her tone curious.

Heat creeps up Caitlyn’s cheeks. “I’m not sure yet,” she replies. “We’ll revisit that if the occasion shall arise.”

Vi’s smirk is downright dirty, Caitlyn thinks. She kisses Caitlyn once more on the lips before taking her hand again, leading them on.

On their way back down to the car, Caitlyn takes a few more photos, really focusing on how beautiful the scenery is. She feels like she hasn’t really taken the time to actually appreciate Piltover since returning. This is the best time to do it. She has Vi’s hand in hers and this entirely beautiful scenery in front of her. And the sappy part of her thinks that things couldn’t get better than this.

~*~

Waking up on the Solstice spooning Vi was not something Caitlyn ever envisioned. Vi’s body is warm and soft and Caitlyn is having trouble comprehending just how wonderful this long weekend has been.

The previous night, they had cooked together again, and everything felt so normal. It was easy to picture how this could be her future. But that thought had scared the shit out of her, so she had just focused on the task at hand.

But now, waking up holding Vi like her arms were made to do that makes Caitlyn wonder.

Vi shifts slightly in her arms, and Caitlyn takes the time to press lingering kisses to the back of her neck. She likes waking up before Vi. And she especially likes waking Vi up with kisses and touches.

The change in Vi’s breathing indicates that she’s awake, and Caitlyn smiles to herself. She kisses down Vi’s back, taking her time to press a kiss to as many parts of her tattoo as possible. Vi shifts so she’s lying completely on her front, her arms coming up to pillow under her head.

“Cait,” she breathes, pressing back into Caitlyn’s mouth.

“Yes, darling?” Caitlyn asks, shifting to kiss the small of her back. Her tongue traces the lines, then she kisses over the last point, lingering for a moment.

“Touch me,” Vi moans.

Caitlyn trails her fingers down over Vi’s glorious butt and she shifts her legs to allow Caitlyn some more room. Caitlyn slides two fingers into Vi with ease, feeling her immediately clench down around them.

Teasing Vi is something she’s growing to love, too. In all of her time having sex, there’s not once felt like someone who was on her level until Vi. So getting to tease her like this, to slowly fuck her, it makes Caitlyn happy they found each other.

As she fucks Vi with her fingers, Caitlyn kisses over the tattoos, letting her teeth scrape over the more sensitive parts. Vi arches into Caitlyn’s touch, panting heavily as she comes, mumbling incoherently into her arms.

Caitlyn removes her fingers and sucks them clean. She presses a few more kisses to Vi’s spine as she shifts back up the bed and lies back down next to her, a smug smile on her face.

Vi rolls into her arms, her warm breath puffing against the side of Caitlyn’s neck.

“Good morning,” she says and Caitlyn smiles.

“Happy Solstice,” she returns. Vi repeats the sentiment and promptly falls back asleep. Caitlyn strokes her hair with her free hand and reaches for her phone to text her parents.

They’ve already messaged her, she sees upon unlocking her phone. So has Jayce. She messages them all back and then sets her phone back down, lest it wake Vi. She picks up her book, intent on finishing it before book club next month. She likes that it’s something she and Powder can do together. Especially when they both often finish the book ahead of time and chat about it before the meeting at the bookstore.

A short while later, Caitlyn’s phone vibrates on the bedside drawer and she reaches for it, hoping the noise won’t wake Vi. She’s thankful it doesn’t. The text is from Powder asking a simple ‘can you go check on Vi? She isn’t answering her phone.’

It’s with a small amount of guilt that Caitlyn replies that she will. She sets her phone back down and presses a kiss to the top of Vi’s head.

“Time to wake up, love,” Caitlyn says softly into Vi’s hair. Vi mumbles something completely inaudible and shifts against Caitlyn.

“What’s the time?” Vi mumbles.

“Shortly after nine,” Caitlyn replies.

Vi sharply sits upright. “Shit,” she says. “Where’s my phone?”

“I think you left it downstairs,” Caitlyn says. “What’s wrong?”

“I’m meant to chat with Powder before she comes back home,” Vi says, scrambling out of bed. “I’ll be right back.”

“Just use my phone,” Caitlyn says, tossing Vi her phone.

Vi nods and automatically facetimes Powder.

“Cait? Why are – oh! Hey Vi! Wait, why are you calling from Cait’s phone? I just asked her to go check on you,” Powder asks in a rush. “Are you in Cait’s room? Why are you naked?”

Caitlyn’s eyes go wide at the same time Vi’s do.

“I fell asleep here,” Vi lies smoothly. “And I’m not naked. I just don’t have a shirt on.” Another lie, but Powder absolutely doesn’t need to know that.

As quietly as she can, Caitlyn gets out of bed and gets dressed, trying not to listen in too much to the conversation happening between the sisters.

A few minutes later, Vi hangs up the phone and tosses it onto Caitlyn’s bed just as Caitlyn is pulling a jumper on over her head.

“We’re going to have to tell her eventually,” Vi says. Caitlyn glances up to see her covering her face with her hands. “I hate lying to her like this.”

“I know,” Caitlyn says. She closes the distance between them and gently pulls Vi into her arms. “Good morning,” she says before kissing Vi slowly.

Vi practically melts into Caitlyn’s touch. And it would be so easy to just give in and have Vi again, but they have plans with Vi’s parents, and Caitlyn wants to spend as much time with Vi as she can by themselves before that. It does include at least some sex, but she wants to make Vi breakfast first.

“Get dressed,” Caitlyn says as she pulls back. “I’m making breakfast today.”

Vi raises an eyebrow at her, but nods all the same.

Breakfast should hopefully be simple, Caitlyn thinks as she pulls ingredients from the fridge. She’s got a recipe in front of her for how to make omelettes, and figures she can’t go too wrong this time.

By the time Vi joins her, Caitlyn has prepared most of the ingredients, having chopped what she needs to already. Vi slips her apron on over her head and helps Caitlyn, despite her protests. She’s secretly glad that Vi is helping, because she’s certain she is going to burn the eggs, especially when Vi lowers the heat of the pan before Caitlyn adds the eggs to it.

They work mostly in silence, Vi gently correcting anything Caitlyn has made a mistake with. And when they sit down to eat, Caitlyn feels like she’s getting the hang of this cooking thing. There’s three entire meals she can cook with no (okay with a little) help.

“I got you something,” Caitlyn says. They’ve finished breakfast and she’s just finished loading the dishwasher. “I’ll be right back.” She presses a quick kiss to Vi’s lips and heads back up the stairs to her room.

She locates the envelope in her underwear drawer and peeks inside – just to make sure the tickets haven’t just disappeared somehow. She closes her drawer and is a little surprised to see Vi standing in her doorway, but smiles as she hands it over.

“Tickets to Seraphine?” Vi says as she looks at them. “Cait. How did…? Never mind. This is incredible!”

Pride blooms in Caitlyn’s chest as she looks at Vi’s happy face. “I thought you might want to take Powder with you?”

Vi smiles softly, slipping the tickets back into the envelope. She pulls Caitlyn in for a hug, holding her for a few long moments. “Thank you,” she says softly. “This is amazing.”

“Powder told me how much you love her,” Caitlyn replies.

“Yeah, she’s amazing,” Vi says, pulling back. She sets the envelope down on the top of Caitlyn’s dresser and immediately steps back into Caitlyn’s arms. “I saw her live when I was eighteen. It was the best concert I’ve ever been to. I went with Annie, actually. We started dating around then, too.”

Jealousy tugs at Caitlyn’s heart. She logically knows she has no right to be jealous – it isn’t like she and Vi are even in a relationship. They’re just having sex. Admittedly a lot of amazing sex. But Annie is her ex – and they’ve been over for almost six months already.

“I got you something for Solstice, too,” Vi says, pulling back. She goes to Caitlyn’s closet, and when she had time to put something in there, Caitlyn has no idea. She passes Caitlyn a wrapped box and gives her a hopeful smile.

Caitlyn unwraps it, feeling giddy. She gasps when she sees the polaroid camera. “Vi! This is! Thank you.” She kisses Vi quickly before opening the box to pull the camera out.

“I wasn’t sure what to get you,” Vi comments. “But you’re always taking photos of Pow and me, and, well, me and you, so I thought this could be something fun.”

“I love it,” Caitlyn says. She quickly sets it up and then holds the camera up to her eye. “Smile,” she says and is happy when Vi does.

The photo slides out of the bottom and Caitlyn sets it on top of her dresser next to the envelope to finish developing.

“Come here,” Caitlyn says. “I want one with us together.”

Vi slings her arm low around Caitlyn’s middle, and Caitlyn turns the camera around so she can take the photo. They take a few more, including one of them kissing, and it makes Caitlyn’s stomach swoop pleasantly.

“That gift is perfect,” Caitlyn says, setting it down on top of her dresser with the pile of photos. “I love it. Thank you.”

The blush that tinges Vi’s cheeks is beautiful, she thinks, as she dips her head to kiss Vi. She drapes her arms over Vi’s shoulders and sighs contently when Vi deepens the kiss.

“What time do we have to be at your parents’?” Caitlyn asks as Vi trails kisses down the side of her neck. Her teeth nip and Caitlyn just sighs at the feeling of it.

“Not until one,” Vi eventually replies. “Why?”

“I want to make sure we’ve got time for me to make you come,” Caitlyn says, gently pushing Vi back until the backs of her knees hit the bed.

“We’ve always got plenty of time for that,” Vi comments. She sits down on the edge of the bed and pulls Caitlyn close by her hips. She lifts Caitlyn’s jumper just enough to kiss her stomach. Caitlyn lets out a breathy sigh, arching into Vi’s touch.

“Good… that’s good,” she mumbles, her eyes closing and Vi’s mouth leaving scorching hot marks as she kisses Caitlyn’s skin.

Their clothes are quickly shed, and Caitlyn finds herself gripping onto the headboard as she sits on Vi’s face. Vi’s tongue does the most delicious things to her. Caitlyn feels like she can barely catch her breath after she comes, Vi licking her through the aftershocks.

As she lies there, panting, Caitlyn turns her gaze to Vi. “I was meant to make you come,” she says.

Vi grins. “But you looked like you needed it more than me, Cupcake.”

Caitlyn rolls her eyes. “Come sit on my face, Violet,” she teases, but doesn’t miss the way Vi’s eyes widen at the use of her full name.

Having Vi sit on her face to be eaten out is definitely one of Caitlyn’s favourite things to experience. She loves being able to hold onto Vi’s thighs, and touch her butt and her back and her abs and her breasts (just all of her, really) as much as possible while sucking on her clit.

The noises Vi makes are always so expressive, too, and it’s something else Caitlyn finds that she loves. When Vi comes, the headboard creeks from where she’s holding it. Her thighs tremble as she rides Caitlyn’s tongue through the aftershocks.

They’re a mess, but Caitlyn doesn’t care. She turns into Vi’s arms and kisses her hotly. They eventually get up to go shower, and Caitlyn makes a point of trying not to look at Vi’s gorgeous naked body. She fails, of course, and isn’t surprised when her back gets pressed to the warm tiles, and Vi’s fingers slip into her with ease.

Vi’s mouth doesn’t leave the side of Caitlyn’s neck the entire time she fucks her. Caitlyn whimpers, the stimulation getting a little too much, but Vi lets up as Caitlyn comes, clinging onto her for dear life.

Vi peppers kisses along Caitlyn’s jaw and gives her such a smug smile that Caitlyn has to pull her close and kiss the smirk off her face.

Before she knows it, she’s three fingers deep inside Vi, with Vi panting her name over and over. Caitlyn feels smug at it, especially when Vi comes with such a force that she trembles in Caitlyn’s arms for almost an entire minute after orgasming.

They trade slow, sleepy kisses, even though the shower is still on. Caitlyn can’t bring herself to care that she’s wasting water, not when Vi looks up at her with such awe on her face.

“We’d better get out,” Caitlyn says, rubbing her nose against Vi’s own. “You’re starting to prune.”

Vi huffs a laugh and Caitlyn reaches over to turn the shower off. “I don’t think I can move my legs, Cupcake.”

“Stay right there, then,” Caitlyn says. She gets out, wraps a towel around herself and grabs the other one for Vi. She starts to dry Vi’s body, even though she protests, but in the end, she just falls silent and lets Caitlyn dry her.

It shouldn’t be so intimate, but it is. Caitlyn likes that Vi is letting her take care of her. She knows that Vi is fiercely independent, and has the biggest heart Caitlyn has ever had the pleasure of knowing, so to be able to do this simple act for her brings Caitlyn more joy than she’ll ever be able to express.

When Vi is steady enough to move out of the shower stall, Caitlyn leads her over to the vanity. She kneels in front of Vi and dries between her toes and Vi’s soft laughter makes Caitlyn smile up at her.

“Now, no getting ideas,” Caitlyn says. “I’m down here to work only.”

Vi snorts then, shaking her head. “Cupcake,” she begins, “I’ve never met anyone as horny as you. If you’re into foot stuff, that’s okay by me. Just give me some warning first.”

Caitlyn stands once she’s dried between Vi’s toes and gently cups her face with both hands. “I’m not into foot stuff,” she says. “But I’m willing to try anything with you.” She kisses Vi soundly before she can really register what she’s actually said.

When the kiss comes to its natural end, Caitlyn pulls back to dry herself off, too. She turns to the mirror as she’s drying her hair and gasps staring at her reflection. Vi winces from beside her.

“Vi!” she exclaims, her hand going to her neck. “That is one huge hickey.”

“Yeah…” Vi says, a sheepish grin on her face. “I kind of got carried away.”

“Your family is definitely going to notice that,” Caitlyn comments.

“It’ll be fine,” Vi says, wrapping her arms around Caitlyn’s waist from behind. “Just wear that hot as fuck turtle neck shirt you were wearing the other day. And no bra, of course.”

Caitlyn shakes her head, but can’t stop the smile on her face. “You are…”

“So incredibly sexy?” Vi offers, kissing the back of Caitlyn’s neck. “And so hot for you that it’s ridiculous.”

“Yes, well, both of those things are true,” Caitlyn replies. She runs her hands through her still damp hair. “Now, let me dry your hair before we go. You’ll catch a chill if we go out in this weather with damp hair.”

Caitlyn plugs her hair dryer in and starts drying Vi’s hair first. She pretends she doesn’t notice Vi’s hands slowly making their way down to her butt as she works. Her hands are warm over the towel Caitlyn had slung back around her body. Slowly, she undoes the towel and it drops to the floor.

“Vi,” Caitlyn says. “I’m busy.”

“I know,” Vi replies. “Keep working.” Her tone is teasing, and Caitlyn bites back a laugh when Vi’s hands wander over her hips, her butt, her breasts while Caitlyn dries off her hair.

She stops when Vi’s hair is dry and expects Vi’s hands to stop as well, but she just keeps touching.

“Your hair is still wet, too,” Vi says, dropping a kiss to Caitlyn’s collarbone. She makes no effort to move from where she’s leaning against the vanity, forcing Caitlyn to dry her hair from the angle she’s at.

Vi’s hands settle on Caitlyn’s waist, her thumbs swiping just under her ribs. She lets out a startled noise when Vi takes a nipple into her mouth and gently tugs.

“Vi,” she says on a gasp. “If I drop this…”

“Hold onto it tighter then, Cupcake,” is all Vi says in response as she moves to Caitlyn’s other nipple.

Caitlyn huffs and tightens her grip as she finishes drying off her hair. She sets it down on the counter behind Vi and tilts her chin up with a finger.

“You,” she says, pressing a kiss to Vi’s waiting lips. “Are such a bad influence.” Vi just winks at her. She kisses Caitlyn briefly before stepping out of her hold.

“Come on,” Vi says nonchalantly. “We’d better get dressed or we’ll be late.”

Caitlyn follows her back into the bedroom to get dressed. She pulls on underwear and grabs a bra, but Vi looks at her with the biggest pout so Caitlyn puts it back. She pulls on the black turtle neck from the other day and tries not to think about Vi taking it off her later.

She pauses. Because there won’t be a later. Vi will be going back home. The thought makes her feel things she isn’t ready to acknowledge yet. But she knows that once they step outside of her house, that this bubble they’ve been in all weekend will burst and they’ll have to come crashing back to reality.

It saddens her more than she wants to admit.

“What’s that look for?” Vi asks as she slides on the red jacket that Caitlyn loves so much.

“I just realised you’ll be going back home tonight,” she replies, trying to sound as unaffected as possible. “It’ll be weird not having you with me, is all.”

“Don’t worry,” Vi says. “I got used to it, too.”

Caitlyn gives her a small smile and then puts her watch on around her wrist. “We’d better go. Do you have your gifts for everyone?”

Vi nods. “They’re in the boot of my car already.”

“Excellent,” Caitlyn replies. “We’ll grab my things from the front hall closet on our way out, then.”

They eventually leave the house, along with the gifts Caitlyn had got everyone. Vi had spent a good five minutes laughing at the toy Jaguar car that Caitlyn had purchased for Powder. She’s eager to see Powder’s reaction as well. She also managed to get the new baby snake that was born at the zoo named after her. So she hopes Powder likes her gifts. Vi had assured Caitlyn that she’ll love them, but Caitlyn will feel better when she has Powder’s reaction to go from.

They pull up outside of the Wolfe house and before they get out of the car, Caitlyn puts her hand on Vi’s arm, squeezing softly.

“Thank you,” she says.

Vi shoots her a quizzical look. “What for?”

“For the best Solstice I’ve had since I was a kid,” Caitlyn replies. Vi closes the distance between them and kisses Caitlyn so tenderly that it makes her breath catch in her throat.

“Keep that in mind for when things inevitably get loud in there,” Vi says, her breath warm on Caitlyn’s cheek as they part. Caitlyn nods. She presses one more kiss to Vi’s lips, and then gets out of the car.

Everyone greets them when they walk inside, and they’re instructed to put the gifts with the others near the (thankfully unlit) fireplace.

Caitlyn isn’t expecting to be wrapped in a warm hug by Felicia, but she accepts it all the same. She is then hugged by Vander, too, and she closes her eyes for the briefest moments, enjoying the feeling.

Mylo and Claggor both just wave, which she is grateful for.

“Can I do anything?” Vi asks when they enter the kitchen.

“Come give your old man a hand,” Vander says with a nod.

“Can I do anything, too?” Caitlyn asks.

“We’ve got it, Cupcake,” Vi says with a wink. Caitlyn gives her a nod and smile in return. She lets herself be drawn into a conversation with Mylo and Claggor in the living room.

A little while later, the front door opens, revealing Powder, and her huge suitcase.

“A hand?” she calls out. Caitlyn immediately stands and takes the suitcase off her with ease. She’s then startled by Powder giving her a massive hug that she quickly returns.

“I missed you, too,” Caitlyn says, pressing a kiss onto the top of Powder’s snow flecked hair.

“Sappy loser,” Powder mumbles, but doesn’t let go of Caitlyn’s hold for a few more moments. “Why aren’t you wearing a bra? Your boobs are all squishy.”

Caitlyn promptly flushes.

“Hey, Pow-pow,” Vi says, stepping up behind them, thankfully saving Caitlyn from having to answer that question.

Powder launches herself at Vi, wrapping her arms and legs around her like she’s a baby bear. Caitlyn can’t help but smile at the scene. Powder then throws herself in a similar fashion at Vander, who catches her with a practiced ease.

Vi’s hand gently caresses Caitlyn’s butt as she walks past, shooting her a subtle wink. Caitlyn smiles to herself. She glances up to see Claggor giving her a knowing look and a smirk.

Their meal is served by Vi and Vander, and once again, Caitlyn finds herself sitting between Vi and Powder, in what she’s slowly coming to think of as her spot at the table. She’s also directly opposite Claggor, who, thankfully, hasn’t said anything to her about the way her gaze keeps going to Vi, or the way Vi keeps finding ways to touch her when no one else is looking.

Dinner is delicious. Caitlyn eats everything that she possibly can, and feels full and content. She helps clear up, not able to just sit by and do nothing. She makes quick work of clearing the plates with Claggor, who loads the dishwasher expertly.

“So…” he begins. “You and my sister?”

A flush promptly creeps up Caitlyn’s neck. “We… we’re not telling people yet.”

Claggor nods. “Okay,” he says. “My lips are sealed.”

“Thank you,” Caitlyn replies, grateful.

“We’re exchanging gifts now, hurry up!” Mylo calls, poking his head around the kitchen door.

Everyone is passed whatever gifts have their name on it, and Caitlyn can’t help but smile at the chaos of them all opening their gifts all at once. There is a cacophony of ��thank you!’ coming from everyone at all different intervals.

“Caitlyn Kiramman!” Powder exclaims loudly, causing everyone to look at her. Caitlyn can’t help but smile. “This is not the car I wanted for the Solstice.”

Caitlyn can tell she’s trying so hard to pout, but her smile is too big. “Yes, but you never said what kind of car you wanted,” she teases. “So that is perfect, I think. Especially since you don’t even have your licence.”

“Stupid driving tests,” Powder mutters. “Thank you, Cait, it’s perfect.”

Caitlyn turns back to her own pile of gifts – something she wasn’t expecting in the slightest. She is beginning to understand that this family loves with every fibre of their being. And she is somehow lucky enough to be included in it. She’s gifted a very soft scarf and beanie set from Felicia and Vander in a beautiful cream colour. She likes that it is nice on her senses, too.

“We got one like this for Powder a few years ago,” Felicia says when Caitlyn thanks them. “The store does a lot of autistic friendly things. And Powder said you’d probably like it.”

“I do,” Caitlyn replies with a nod. “It’s beautiful.”

She’s given a voucher to the bookstore from Mylo and Claggor, and she feels a rush of affection for them.

Powder’s gift to her is a new yearly planner, which Caitlyn had thought she’d actually bought herself, and was sad when she had checked her email and hadn’t found a confirmation. Now she knows why. Powder’s sheepish smile has Caitlyn giving her a hug.

“What did Vi get you?” Powder asks when they separate. She looks around, as if expecting to see a gift from Vi in the pile.

“We exchanged gifts this morning,” Caitlyn replies. “Vi got me a polaroid camera.”

Powder nods, an impressed look on her face. “Does that mean you gave her the…” she trails off, looking over at Vi.

“The Seraphine tickets?” Vi supplies. “She sure did. Looks like we’re going to a concert in February!”

Powder grins and hugs Vi. “I can’t wait,” she says. “It’s a pity Lux can’t come, though. She loves Seraphine, too.”

“I can see about getting some more?” Caitlyn offers.

“Cupcake, no,” Vi says, putting her hand on Caitlyn’s where it’s already reaching into her pocket for her phone. “Powder and I will be fine on our own.”

“Fine,” Powder says with a pout. She moves back to her pile of presents and keeps opening the rest of them.

The rest of the evening passes with several conversations with all of the Wolfe family. Powder ropes Mylo, Claggor, and their mum into a board game that she seems to be winning.

Vander makes everyone hot chocolates, and Vi gently touches Caitlyn’s hand, and Caitlyn is helpless but to follow her outside. They push two loungers together and Vi puts a blanket over them, the air cool and crisp, with the smell of snow lingering around them.

The fairy lights that have been hung up around the edge of the pergola give off enough light that they don’t need any of the bigger lights on. Not that Caitlyn needs to see much. She can see the stars in the sky, and can see her mug in front of her face, that’s all she really cares about.

She sets her empty mug aside and leans her head on Vi’s shoulder, feeling relaxed.

“Thank you for the lovely day,” Caitlyn says after a while.

Vi’s hand slips into her own, their fingers lacing together. “Thanks for being here, Cupcake,” she says. “We’ve loved having you here.”

“This has been the best Solstice ever,” Caitlyn says, even more certain now than she was earlier when they arrived.

“Yeah,” Vi says softly, “it has been.”

She shifts so they’re facing each other and kisses Caitlyn with such tenderness. She tastes like the hot chocolates they just had. Caitlyn sighs softly, losing herself in it.

The patio door slides open and they pull apart. Just enough so it isn’t obvious what they were doing, but that’s it. The blanket is still tucked around them both, and Vi’s hand is still in hers under it.

“Why is there no space for me?” Powder asks as she saunters over. She lifts the blanket on Vi’s side and curls herself onto her sister’s lap. Vi’s arms go around Powder’s small frame, cuddling her close.

“Is that better?” Vi asks.

“Yes,” Powder replies. She reaches over and pokes Caitlyn, who pokes her back. “Do you want to stay the night?” she asks.

Caitlyn glances from Powder to Vi and back to Powder. “I couldn’t impose any further…” she says.

“I’ve got to train you out of using that word,” Powder says around a yawn. “We’ve got plenty of space. And I’m sure there’s some of Vi’s old clothes that will fit you to sleep in.”

Caitlyn flicks her gaze back to Vi, whose face is unreadable.

“You’re not sleeping with me, though,” Powder says pointedly. “I’m not having your tits in my face. You can sleep with Vi. She’s used to tits in her face.”

“I take it that this is you confirming you and Lux haven’t had sex yet?” Vi teases, and Caitlyn is grateful for it.

“Ugh, no, you pervert,” Powder says. She sits up and purposefully elbows Vi in the shoulder as she does. “But since you’re so invested, I promise to tell you whenever it happens.”

Vi laughs. “It’s okay if you don’t want to have sex,” she says.

“I’m not talking about this with you,” Powder protests as she gets up. She takes the blanket and wraps it around herself like a cape. “I am going to bed now. Goodnight.”

“Pow! Give the blanket back!”

“No, it’s mine!”

“Goodnight, Powder,” Caitlyn says.

“Goodnight, Cait,” Powder replies, disappearing through the patio door once more.

“I guess it’s bedtime?” Caitlyn says. She gazes at Vi, who licks her lips and nods.

“Yeah,” she says.

“I can go home, if you want?”

Vi shakes her head. “No,” she replies. “No. I really don’t want you to go.”

“But?” Caitlyn prompts.

“But I can’t have sex with a house full of my family.”

Caitlyn snorts indelicately. “Do you really think I’m that horny that I can’t control myself around you?”

Vi smirks. “Well, you have been very handsy this weekend.”

Caitlyn rolls her eyes and pushes herself up to stand. “Really, Violet, you act as though you weren’t a willing participant.”

“Oh, I was very willing,” Vi replies, standing as well, her gaze fixed on Caitlyn. “I just know how you get when you see my naked body.”

“Well then,” Caitlyn says, her hand on the patio door handle. “Just make sure you stay clothed, then.”

“That’s the problem, Cupcake,” Vi says, putting her hand on top of Caitlyn’s on the door handle. “I sleep naked.”

Caitlyn stares at her. “So do I.” She slides the door open and steps into the warm house.

They say goodnight to everyone and Vi shows her to one of the bathrooms so they can brush their teeth. She then leads Caitlyn to her childhood room. There’s a large bed in the centre of the room, and there’s a chest of drawers off to the side, but the rest is pretty minimal.

“It was more like me when I lived here,” Vi comments. She reaches into the top drawer of her chest of drawers and passes Caitlyn a loose shirt. She changes into it, keeping her knickers on, though.

“It still feels like you,” Caitlyn comments as they get into bed.

“Yeah?” Vi asks. “And what do I feel like?”

“Warm. Safe,” Caitlyn replies. Like home, her mind supplies.

Vi’s smile is the last thing Caitlyn sees before she’s kissing her softly. They trade kisses until they eventually fall asleep in each other’s arms, and Caitlyn can’t help but wish that this didn’t have to end.
