CHAPTER 17

Carly woke up to the sound of her phone ringing.She was still too sleepy after a late night of talking with Dylan that she couldn't eve differentiate between a call and an alarm.She wondered what time it was as she struggled to reach for her phone which had stopped ringing by then.

 "Fuck!Eight already?How am I gonna get to school on time?" she asked as she quickly got up.She ran downstairs bumping into her mother.

 "God damn it Carly!You almost ran me over,if you could call it that.What's going on?"

 "Where is Carl?And why didn't anyone wake me up?I'm not gonna make it to school on time."

  "What are you talking about?It's Saturday and Carl is still sleeping!"

 "Jesus!" Carly exclaimed ,"I'm an idiot." she added slapping her forehead lightly.

 "Yeah,that you are." her mother said.

She didn't argue because she knew it was the truth.She walked slowly upstairs only stopping by at her brother's bedroom.She thought of knocking but decided not to and instead proceeded to her bedroom.She missed him everyday but how could she tell him that if all they did was fight or bad mouth each other. She went back to her bed and laid down,took her phone and saw that she had missed a call from Dylan.That's wen the previous day's events came back to her.She bit her bottom lip and smiled.She didn't know if it was because it was because she now had a girlfriend,not even a boyfriend but she couldn't keep the smile out of her face.Dylan had made the last few weeks worth waking up to because she knew she would get to see her at school.The weekends were always the longest and even though she got through them,she didn't think she would manage through this one.She missed her terribly as if they hadn't been together the previous day.She wanted to see her.

  That morning after breakfast she followed Carl into the kitchen where he had gone to take his bowl after eating.He glanced at her sideways when she stopped next to him.

 "What?"

 "Would you let me take the car today?" she asked hoping he would agree.

Carl scoffed,"You've never even driven a single mile.How are you going to do that?"

 "That's because you never let me and I took driving lessons like you,remember?" 

Carl turned away,rinsed his bowl and wiped it then put it in an open cabinet,"Yeah you did,but mom won't even allow it."

 "Will you at least drive me?" she asked humbly.

 "I'll be late for our soccer game if I drive you."

 "Why are you so selfish?"

 "Where are you going anyway?"

Carly thought for a while considering if he would drive her if she told him but she knew her brother too well.For some reason,he was acting more of a step brother than a twin brother.She shrugged,"It's none of your business." She left him and headed out.

 "Suit yourself." She heard him say but she didn't reply.She headed straight to the barn remembering an old bike she had always used before they got the car.At least she had maintained it well.All it needed was a bit of oil and she would be good to go.She would have to go through her old box in storage where she had stored some of her old things and where her helmet because if her mother saw her riding her bike without it it would be war.She then went back upstairs,took a shower,dressed and hurried back downstairs then outside where she had left her bike.

She almost thought she was lucky she would go unnoticed when she heard her mother calling from the doorstep.She stopped and turned around.

 "Where are you going?"

 "To see a friend,"she replied.

 "Well,it's finally good to hear that,just ride safely and don't stay out long."

 "Okay mom,"she replied and went away.

   *****

    Dylan had just woken up;no,she had just been woken up for the third time.The first time she had been woken up,she had called Carly but when she didn't answer,she went back to sleep.Walking downstairs now,she was still sleepy,her eyes were half open as she dragged her feet slowly step by step.She stopped at the bottom step and sat down.

 "Have you been running for miles during the night?You look terrible," her mother said to her.

 "I didn't get enough sleep."

 "What were you doing?"

 "Stuff,"she replied with a shrug.

 "What kind of stuff?" her mother asked curiously with a raised eyebrow."I hope you are not cruising around after I go to sleep." 

Dylan laughed,"No mom.You know I don't.I was just talking with a friend."

 "Hmm,what kind of friend is that?" she asked with a smile.

Dylan looked away not wanting to look into her mother's eyes.She would see through her." Won't you be late for work?"

 "What are you talking about?It's Saturday and we don't open until nine o'clock."

Luckily,her mother gave up after trying to get the answer out of her.She took her car keys,left lunch money for her and left.It was then that she proceeded to the kitchen to find breakfast.She had hardly settled down when the doorbell sounded.She got up,carried her bowl with cereal dipped in milk wondering what her mom had forgotten.But if it was her,why would she ring the bell instead of just coming getting in.She hurried there,took a spoonful before opening.She was however surprised when she saw the person she was least expecting.

 "Hi,"Carly greeted with a huge smile.

 "Hi,"she returned the smile then asked,"What a nice surprise,when did you get here?"

 "Just before your mom left,I waited until she drove past then I came up."

 "You  rode a bike from your place?"

 "I was going to but luckily a friend of my dad happened to be coming this way and he gave me a ride in his pick up so I didn't have to.Can I come in?" Carly asked looking past her.Dylan stepped aside and let her in.The door was barely closed when Carly pulled her towards her so their faces were just inches apart.

 "Hi," she said softly. Dylan moved in and kissed her  lightly

 "Hey,I missed you."

Carly smiled,"I missed you.I don't think I could have gone through the whole weekend without seeing you."

 "Me too babe.I have been thinking about you all night."

 "Oh yeah?"

Dylan nodded.It was not a lie because of late she had been thinking about her too much and dreamed with her as a result. "Yeah,maybe we could do something together today?"

 "We could go somewhere,just us away from the public but outside."

 "Like a picnic?" she asked suggestively.

 "Or like a date," Carly replied.It was the way she said it that made her heart begin to beat faster.Something told her that this would not just be a simple date but she wasn't going let it just pass by.

 "I hope you know that I would be able to keep my hands off to myself.So it has to be somewhere I can touch you whenever I want to."

 "I know a place."

   *****

    That was all the encouragement that Dylan needed.She excused herself and went upstairs to take a shower.She was back a moment later wearing a black pair of shorts and a read and white jersey with white sneakers to match.Carly looked up from the album of family photos she had been looking at and smiled.

 "I thought this was a date,where is your suit?" she teased.

 "You are not wearing a dress either," Dylan shot back.

Carly laughed,"For your information,I don't like dresses that much."

 "Look who are talking to about that,"she replied expressing her whole body and they both laughed.

 They spent the most part of the day playing around.Carly led them to the place she used to go with her grandpa and brother.There was a stream passing through the place.It was deep enough to swim in and that's where they learned swimming behind their parents' backs.The pathway people used around there was some meters away from there and it was unlikely to see people going down there.Many believed that river water wasn't safe to use even for swimming purposes.She couldn't say the same about the teenagers who often sneaked around like they were now but today,they seemed to be the only ones adventuring.

 "Come on,I'll race you to the water," Carly suggested ad started removing her clothes.Dylan did the same without hesitating  but Carly was already running towards the river.She quickly dropped her shorts and threw her jersey to the ground and followed her,jumping into the water seconds after her landing next to her in a splash.Carl laughed,"I beat you now you'll have to pay."

 "We didn't talk about any payment,"Dylan replied."Furthermore,you only beat me because you had a head start." She had hardly finished the words when Carly covered her lips with her own.She closed her eyes enjoying the slow but sensational kiss.When they parted,she asked with a mischievous smile,"What was that for?"

 "My payment."

She smiled,"Now that I can manage." She pulled towards her again and deepened the kiss.Their legs met underneath the water and locked together.She felt Carly's knee against her groin and immediately wanted her to press it harder.She moved closer so that she now cradled her.She kissed her slowly and tenderly along her neck,eliciting a small moan from her which heightened her excitement.She however caught herself before she went too far. "Hey,we could head back home instead of risking being caught here by someone."

 "How long do we have the house to ourselves?"

 "All day,my mom doesn't comeback until seven in the evening."

 "Okay,let's go."

   *****

   Throwing all caution to the air,Dylan took control,pushed Carly onto her bed and went after her.They were inside the house and so she wasn't worried that anyone would catch them.She kissed her way along Carly's neck taking her time to find her weakest spot.It was a good thing she had learnt a thing or two in her former school before she chose to hide her identity again.Her hand felt it's way along Carly's shirt then slipped it inside feeling Carly's soft skin between her fingers.She let it travel upwards and felt the skin around her breasts.Carly moaned softly then opened her eyes.Their gazes met and without even asking,she removed her shirt and threw it to the floor exposing her now sharp nipples nipples from arousal.They had both discarded their bikinis after they got wet while swimming.

           "You are so beautiful,"she said in a soft whisper.

Instead of responding,Carly tagged on her jersey which she immediately removed.Even though it was the first time Carly was seeing her completely naked,she wasn't shy.

           "So are you,"she said with a smile.She then took her hand and guided it back to her breasts.

           "Are you sure about this?"

Carly only hesitated for a second before nodding firmly,"I have never been more sure.I want you to touch me."

Dylan nodded,"Have you ever touched yourself?" She didn't know why she had asked the question but Carly shook her head just as she had expected. "Are you scared?"

      "A little,"Carly replied then added,"But I trust you.There's no one else I'd rather give myself to." 

        "I love you Lee." Carly seemed surprised by the declaration but only for a moment then nodded.

         "I love you too."

The answer acted as an encouragement to her.She moved slowly trailing swift small kisses along the length of her body.She kissed her nipples in turns,teasingly at first then nibbling with her teeth which made Carly squirm beneath her.She sucked on them taking turns,giving attention to her mouth too.Her hand traveled down and stopped just above the waistband of her trousers.She massaged the skin for a few seconds then pulled at the strings that held it on her waist.Once the were loose,she slid her hand inside and rested it on the now wet crotch.She pressed her two fingers against it and Carly jumped.She released for a moment.

       "I'll be gentle I promise," she said looking into the deep brown eyes that looked at her,laying all the trust on her.When Carly nodded,she returned her fingers and started making small gentle circles around her clit.
