Sinead was smiling before Tanis kissed her and, even with her lips on hers, she found it difficult to stop grinning. After weeks of wishing to be close with Tanis it had finally come to fruition, and Sinead could hardly contain it.<br/>There was such safety in the closed door, in knowing they were not in her marital home. With her smile still making the kiss clumsy, Sinead's hands cupped Tanis' jaw, begging her to stay close while she processed the reality that they were finally alone.<br/>Marking the moment it properly struck her, Sinead exhaled against Tanis' lips, the sound catching in her throat. Then, Sinead's lips left Tanis'.<br/>Her hold of the other woman was still transparently intentful, keeping her on her toes even when there was no real need for the proximity.<br/>A question danced at Sinead's parted lips, either wanting to ask where Tanis' bedroom was - or, just as well, if she could have her right then and there. Neither ever left her lips.<br/>Instead, she spoke something far less coherent. "Yeah?" she asked, almost shyly, finally loosening her grip far enough for Tanis to regain her footing.
