The tinkerer had never really thought about her friend like this, not that this advance was unwelcome, rather, it was unexpected. She stifled a moan, enjoying the feel of those strong fingers against her skin and regardless of the doubts chasing themselves around her brain, fought the urge to purr. Instead she nuzzled closer, brushing against the other woman's fingers.<br/><br/>"Th... thank you," she stammered, unconsciously leaning more heavily into the girl's hand, "But I am practically blind without my glasses."<br/><br/>But, with her this close it no longered mattered, Felice could clearly see her friend's eyes, even if she did struggle to understand their intensity. There was a tiny nagging voice in the back of the tinkerer's mind, a soft note of warning that urged her to slow down.<br/><br/>"What..." Felice began weakly, "What are you doing?"<br/><br/>The words sounded stupid when spoken aloud, of course Felice knew what was happening, she just wasn't entirely sure why. Her friend was insistent but not aggressive, and, no matter what anxieties might try to raise their ugly heads, the young woman could think of no earthly reason to complain. She made no move to stop Gerdi's caresses, and found her own lips opening in welcome as she allowed her friend to guide them into a long and lingering kiss.
