Intimacy

Casey wrapped her long arms around Lena's small frame, curling one arm up and cupping the side of Lena's head against her chest, and did just that. 

At some point, Lena fell asleep in Casey's lap. She listened to Lena's breathing and could feel her heartbeat through her hand on her back. Casey thought about what had gone on between them in the last twenty-four hours and smiled. 

She was content and happy. She had never considered being with a woman before, but then again, she had never thought about being with a werewolf either, and that had happened. So, all things considered, this wasn't bad. Actually, it was great. She had to be honest with herself on this—could she really make love to a woman? 

She knew the concept and the mechanics of sex, but could she really do it? Perhaps not with just any woman, but she thought she could with Lena. Yeah, she was nervous about it, but okay, your first time is always a nervous experience.
