Lapis's lips slowly dragged down my jaw as my hands released her shoulders. She peppered kisses down my neck, only halting once she reached my collarbone. I shivered slightly, sliding my right hand down her back, leaving my left hand resting beside me. Lapis' warm hands glided down my chest, and I couldn't help but arch my back a little, relishing in her touch. The cop seemed to take notice, and pressed her hands further down onto my chest, and she kept planting kisses across my collarbone.

I let out a soft sigh, and my hands found their way back up to the buttons of Lapis' shirt. I squinted my eyes as I unbuttoned her shirt for the second time tonight, and she remained hovering over me. Once I undid all of the buttons, my leg twitched a little, and I opened the shirt a little more. Her black sports bra was revealed, and I reached up to slide the rest of her shirt down her shoulders. "I'm gonna have to put this back on very soon, y'know." Lapis timidly whispered, and I nodded in response. "13 minutes." I whispered back, watching as Lapis let the shirt slide down her arms.

Once she took the whole shirt off, she leaned forward again. She quickly took the bottom of my sweatshirt, and pulled it over my head. She threw the hoodie over the couch, and ghosted her fingers over the front of my shirt, causing me to shiver again. She slipped my shirt off as well, dropping it down. She leaned down, her face growing closer to my chest. "You're stunning." she stated in a barely audible whisper. My legs slid against her hips, and wrapped around her back.

I snaked my arms around her neck, and pulled her down closer to me. I took this moment to study Lapis' body up close as well. "You are too..." I replied quietly, feeling my cheeks heat up. She planted another kiss on the side of my neck, and I tilted my chin up. One of my hands slid down from the back of her neck, down to her stomach. I couldn't keep my hands off of her. I used my other hand to take her chin into it, and I pulled her down for a kiss. A spark shot through my system, and I softly moaned as she deepened the kiss.

My hand trailed upward, eventually underneath her bra. I placed my hand on one of her breasts, and I felt the goosebumps emerge from her skin. I slightly tightened my grip on her chest, and she lowly hummed. I felt her exhale through her nose, and she pressed against my hand. I slipped my other hand into her bra as well, and her breathing became more shaky. I slightly bucked my hips upward, and the friction between us only aroused me more. I jolted as I felt Lapis' hand press against my clothed sex.

I then slowly sat up, though not breaking the kiss. Lapis leaned back, and I kept my hands firmly against her. My hands underneath her bra then slid up more, pushing the bra up as well. I separated my lips from hers, pulling the article of clothing over her head. Lapis stared at me with awestruck eyes, and her face was a beet red. My eyes lowered down to her chest, and I cocked my eyebrows. My teeth sunk into my bottom lip as I couldn't help but keep my eyes glued to the incredibly attractive sight.

Lapis turned her head away shyly, and I leaned forward toward one of her breasts. I closed my lips around the nub, and gently sucked. I heard her suddenly breathe out harshly. I sucked harder, and I instantly beamed as I heard her let out a soft moan. I felt her fingers slowly tangle into my ruffled blond hair. She gently pulled my head closer, and I continued this for a few more seconds. I kissed in between the two mounds, and moved my head to the right. I proceeded to leave hickeys across her chest, and Lapis was a panting mess at this point.

Lapis' fingers released my hair, and her hands touched my arms. I glanced down at her hands in question, and her fingers wrapped around both of my wrists. She then leaned forward, and I laid back, staring up at the cop. She pinned my wrists down, and she weighted her body slightly onto mine. I squirmed at the incredible warmth radiating from her. I knew we probably didn't have enough time to finish what we started, but of course it didn't stop Lapis from marking me.

She left a large hickey on the side of my neck, and I knew damn well I was going to regret letting her do that. I just couldn't stop her. My desire to feel more of her was too strong, and it always derailed my reasonable train of thought. My feelings for her were almost, if not already, overwhelming, and it drove me insane. Once Lapis lifted her head up from my neck, I was swept into a deep eye contact with her. I realized that I really was in too deep this time. I was in love with this woman, and there was absolutely nothing I could do to stop it. What baffled me most was how fast this had happened. I hadn't even known Lapis Lazuli for that long, yet she was already my everything.

"I-I should probably get my stuff back on..." she muttered quietly. I felt a lump form in my throat, and all of these emotions hit me at once. Lapis' hands released my wrists, and I raised my arms to hug her closely. I didn't want her to go yet. I didn't wanna go yet. I shut my eyes tightly, keeping a tight grip on Lapis, and she just let me for a long moment. Eventually, she slowly sat up, therefore slightly escaping my grip. I kept my hands on her until I could no longer reach. The second she left my touch, the lump in my throat grew larger. I put my shirt and hoodie back on, and Lapis put her bra and shirt back on.

"Alright, well... I'll see you again soon hopefully?" Lapis asked, giving me a shy expression. I nodded, and just hugged her tightly one more time. I quickly separated from her, and planted a kiss on her cheek. She smiled at me, and I timidly smiled back. I walked toward the front door as Lapis began to slip on her shoes. "I'll um, I'll see you around, Lapis." I muttered, opening the door. I love you. "Seeya, Peri. Text me. Call me. Do whatever." Lapis giggled.

. . . .

I grumbled loudly as I attempted to climb back in through my bedroom window. I was startled by the sound of banging on the door, and I nearly did a somersault as I tumbled into my room violently. I glared at my door, incredibly confused as the obnoxious banging increased. "PERIDOT!!!" Jasper's voice boomed loudly. I groaned, and slid my window back closed. I quickly kicked my shoes off, and stormed to the door. I unlocked it, and swung it open angrily. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU PSYCHO?!" I growled, gritting my teeth. "You weren't answering the door, and I thought you killed yourself." Jasper explained, and I sighed.

"I sure wanna die when I'm around you." I murmured, turning my head and staring at the wall with half lidded eyes. "Oh, shut up, you sack of salt. We're going on a mission to break Amethyst out tonight." she stated, and I furrowed my eyebrows. "WHAT?! NO WAY!" I yelled in protest. "We are going with or without you, Peridot. Your choice." Jasper crossed her arms. "I prefer without. You guys can go get arrested on your own." I replied. "But Peridot, don't you remember what you promised? You promised to figure this out." She argued. "I promised nothing. You can go now." I huffed, staring at the large woman. "We really need all the help we can get, Peridot. Can you please just consider it? We'll even postpone the mission to tomorrow night if that changes your mind at all." she explained.

I was silent for a moment, and side glanced Jasper. I groaned, rolling my eyes. "What is that?" Jasper suddenly asked. I raised an eyebrow, now looking at her in confusion. My stomach dropped as I realized she was referring to the bruise on my neck. I instinctively kicked the door shut in Jasper's face, and she yelped in response. I quickly locked the door, and leaned my back against it, feeling my heart pound. I shut my eyes tightly, and bit my tongue harshly. "Peridot?! Hello?!"
