The Christmas Gift
By AnnieSA
Nicci almost
jumped out of her seat when the doorbell rang at
12:15 on Christmas Eve. “Oh man, I’m going to
kill Nadine.” She thought as she got up to open
the door.
Her best friend
of many years had told her the day before that
she had a very special Christmas gift for her.
She was going to arrange a ‘girl’ for her on
Christmas Eve who would stay with her all night.
Nicci threatened to personally kill Nadine if
she dared, but Nadine just laughed and said that
Nicci would be thanking her instead. Apparently
the lady would be clad in lingerie only.
Nicci has been
alone for so long that she had her own doubts
about remembering what to do with a woman.
Having her heart ripped to pieces and handed
back to her had pushed her into a life of
solitude which she was having great difficulty
getting out of.
She flung open
the door ready to send who ever stood there to
hell, but instead she was speechless. In front
of her stood a stunningly, beautiful women with
shoulder length, waving blond hair, and blue
eyes that made Nicci feel like jumping into the
deep pools along with a body that curved in all
the right places. She was clad only in a flimsy
teddy with a see through nightgown over it.
“Hi, I’m Riette…”
As the woman started to speak Nicci grabbed her
hand and pulled her into the apartment while
quickly closing the door with her other hand.
She pushed Riette against the wall and kissed
her with all her pent up frustrations making
themselves known.
It took her a few
seconds to realise that Riette was trying to
resist her, but when Nicci tried to pull away,
Riette pulled her back and returned the kiss.
Nicci felt like she was floating a few inches
above the ground as the kiss deepened. She
pulled at the buttons on the nightgown with
trembling fingers as she felt herself being
turned and pushed against the wall. Riette was
doing her own exploration of Nicci’s well toned
body while trying to get Nicci’s shirt off. As
they turned each other against the wall over and
over again, they managed to get rid of most of
their clothes and almost to the end of the
hallway.
“Oh man,…..Nadine
was right,…… I’ll be thanking her in the
morning.” Nicci whispered between kisses as she
made her way down Riette’s body after once again
pinning her to the wall.
Riette went rigid
at the words. “Stop!” She shouted as she pushed
Nicci away from her.
“What’s wrong?”
Nicci asked as she tried to move back into
Riette’s arms
“I’m not who you
think I am.” Riette groaned as she hastily tried
to get her clothes back on.
“What do you
mean?”
“If you have a
friend named Nadine, then it’s your ‘date’ that
caused me to lock myself out of my apartment.”
Riette was starting to feel anger building up
inside her. It was mainly directed at herself,
but she was about to take it out on who ever the
woman in front of her was.
“What?”
“Do you have an
IQ of ten?” Riette’s temper was flaring. “Your
‘date’ was knocking on my door insisting that I
should let her in because my friend Nadine has
paid her to spend the night with me. I had to
fight her off to get her away from the door and
in the process my apartment door closed behind
me.”
“Oh” Nicci was
speechless once again.
“Is that it?”
Riette was seething. “You just kissed a strange
woman senseless and all you can say is ‘oh’?”
“I know all the
people in this complex and you don’t live here.”
Nicci was taken aback by Riette’s tirade and
said the only thing that came to mind.
“Oh, because I
don’t live in this complex, according to you
anyway, it makes it ok?”
“I seem to
remember you kissing me back and pulling my
clothes off so don’t come and act all high and
mighty with me and yes, I do know all the people
in this complex and you don’t live here!”
Nicci’s face was red from anger now.
“For your
information Miss Know-It-All, I’m staying at my
friend’s apartment while my place is being
fumigated. I’ve been ringing doorbells to see if
I can use someone’s phone to call my friend
who’s at a party tonight. You’re the only person
that opened their door.”
“Wow, it must be
my lucky day!” Nicci said sarcastically. By now
they were both dressed and standing opposite
each other like two fighters in a ring.
“It might be your
lucky day, but it’s my day from hell and it’s
all your fault.”
“You’ve got to be
kidding me. If you weren’t dressed like that I
wouldn’t have responded the way I did.” Nicci
groaned inwardly as images of what lied beneath
that flimsy attire was flashing through her
mind.
“I was on my way
to bed when that bloody woman wouldn’t stop
ringing the doorbell. Just how desperate are you
if your friends have to arrange a call girl for
you? Can’t you do your own dirty work?”
“On your way to
bed? On your own? Dressed like that?” Nicci’s
eyebrow lifted as her lips curved into a mocking
expression. “Do you need to turn your toy ‘on’
in more ways than one? Doesn’t a flip of a
switch work anymore?”
“I might prefer
women, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t like to
feel like one!” Riette threw her hands up in the
air as she turned to walk back to the front
door. “Why am I even standing here trying to
explain myself to you?”
“Maybe because
you don’t really want to walk out of that door?”
Nicci was starting to enjoy this.
“You’re so bloody
arrogant! No wonder you need a call girl, no one
in their right mind would stay with you.”
“Well you’re so
full of shit, I wouldn’t touch you if my life
depended on it.” Nicci walked past Riette and
opened the front door for her.
“It didn’t bother
you a few minutes ago.” Riette’s voice was
dripping sarcasm.
“A few minutes
ago I thought you were someone worth taking to
bed.” Nicci’s ears rang from the slap that
followed her words.
“You would be so
lucky.” Riette said as she pushed past Nicci to
walk out the door.
Nicci laughed.
“You mean to say it’s not my lucky day after
all? I’m devastated.”
“Right and I’m
jumping for joy.”
Nicci watched as
Riette walked away, but her conscience got the
better of her. “Wait” She shouted. “My phone is
in the living room and it might be better if you
stay inside until your friend comes with the
key.”
Riette stopped
and turned slowly to face Nicci. She was so
angry that she completely forgot the reason for
her predicament. She had to face the reality of
her situation. She still had to phone her
friend, because she still didn’t have a key and
she was still walking around half naked. The
expression on the woman’s face seemed genuine,
even after what happened. “I suppose you have a
point.”
“I think I do and
by the way.” Nicci held her hand out. “My name’s
Nicci.”
Riette smiled.
“Hi, my name’s Riette, but I think I tried to
tell you that before.”
“Glad to meet you
Riette. Shall we start over again?”
“That might be a
good idea.”
“Well then, why
don’t you go ahead and use the phone and I’ll
get us something to drink. Will a glass of red
wine do?”
“A glass of red
wine will go down quite well thank you.”
“Coming right
up.” Nicci turned towards the kitchen, but could
feel Riette’s eyes on her. She straightened her
back slightly as she walked away.
Riette let her
eyes roam over the well toned body as an image
of those muscles rippling while being strained
in a workout flashed through her mind. She
groaned involuntarily before dialling Nancy’s
number.
When Nicci walked
back into the living room Riette was seated on
the couch. She handed her the glass of wine and
took a seat on the couch next to her, but not
too close. Nicci took a sip of her wine as she
watched Riette doing the same.
“All sorted?”
Nicci enquired.
“Yes, Nancy will
be back in about an hour. I gave her your
apartment number, so she’ll come looking for me
here.”
“Good, then we
have some time to get to know each other better.
Maybe we can even arrange to get together some
day while you’re staying here in the complex.
I’d love to show you around our neighbourhood.”
Nicci couldn’t help the smile that formed on her
face.
“I’d love to see
what future days hold for us.” A shiver ran
through Riette’s body as images of possible
future days popped into her mind.
The shiver and
the look on Riette’s face didn’t go unnoticed.
Nicci moved slowly towards Riette, but didn’t
break the eye contact that they were now
sharing.
Riette couldn’t
break the contact either. Nicci’s green eyes
were like those of a cat and her short red hair
enhanced it. Riette was mesmerized.
“Future days
don’t have to be far away.” Nicci whispered as
she moved even closer after taking Riette’s
glass out of her motionless hand and placing
both their glasses on the table.
“You’re right.”
Riette said hoarsely. “Time shouldn’t be
wasted.”
“Especially if we
only have an hour.” Nicci closed the cap between
them slowly as she took possession of the soft
lips that were now visibly trembling.
The kiss started
tenderly and slowly escalated into a burning
fire which neither of them intended to
extinguish anytime soon. Time would show them
what future days held, but right now, time was
theirs to do with as they pleased.
The End
