Kara grinned as she looked up at the clock hanging behind the bar and saw that it was five past seven. Her shift was now officially over, and she could head home. She’d been counting down the minutes since practically the moment she’d arrived at eleven that morning. It wasn’t that she hated her job, and it hadn’t even been that slow during her shift, but she really wanted to get back to her house. Lee was there, and with any luck Michael would be off somewhere else and… well, if it turned out like any of the other times they’d slept together in the past three weeks, it would be nothing short of amazing.
Of course the actual chances of Michael not being home were slim, but it didn’t keep her from hoping.
“You look happy,” Tony said as he walked out from the back storeroom. He had two cases of beer in his hands, one stacked on top of the other. He lifted them onto the counter.
Kara shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly as she turned to face him, though her smile was still firmly in place. “Well, my shift is over, and I’m now free for the rest of the evening.”
Tony smiled back. “Meeting someone?” He asked, a hint of teasing in his voice.
“No,” Kara lied, though try as she might, she couldn’t make her smile disappear.
“Uh huh, sure.” Tony obviously didn’t believe her, but Kara didn’t really care.
She grabbed her truck keys from inside the drawer of the cash register and headed for the exit. “See ya,” she told him.
“Have fun!” He called out at her retreating back.
***
Although anxious to get back, Kara’s plans changed slightly when she stepped out of the nicely air-conditioned bar into the still scorching Delphi summer evening. Tiny beads of sweat automatically began to form on the nape of her neck, and she brushed the reminder of the heat away with one hand.
After hopping into her truck and rolling down the windows all the way, she headed for the nearest grocery store and picked up four pints of ice cream. Ice cream was a summer staple in any Delphi household, and the Thrace’s freezer was almost out. Thankfully the pit stop only took her a few minutes, and before long she was driving out of town on the highway, heading for her place.
Kara pulled up the long gravel driveway just in time to see her brother exiting the back door. Hope rose in her chest, and she wondered if the gods were actually on her side for once.
“Hey,” she said, after cranking down the stereo, turning off the engine and getting out.
Michael smiled at her, and made his way over towards her. “Hey.”
Kara leaned back into the cab of her truck, through the still open door. Grabbing the bag with the ice cream she reached in quickly with one hand, squeezing the container; testing how much the ice cream had melted during the drive. It was getting soft, but it wasn’t completely a pile of goo, which was good. She pulled the bag out of the truck, and shut the door.
“How was work?” Michael asked, once he was closer. He fished inside the pocket of his shorts while he waited for her to answer. Finding his car keys, he took them out and used the remote to unlock the small car parked a few feet away from her truck.
Kara shrugged. “Fine.” She looked at him closely for a second. “Going somewhere?”
He nodded. “Yeah, I’m meeting a friend for dinner. I asked Lee if he wanted to come, but he seemed set on staying here.” Michael shrugged, obviously dismissing Lee’s behavior as odd. “I have no idea why…”
Kara had the bite the inside of her lip hard to keep from smiling. Instead of indicating in any way what she was actually feeling, she just shrugged back. “Well, have fun.”
Michael smiled. “I will.” Then he noticed the bag in her hands. “Ice cream?” He inquired enthusiastically.
Kara smiled politely and nodded. It wasn’t that she minded talking to her brother, especially not after the newfound balance between them, but he was holding her up.
“Good,” Michael continued on, and Kara had to fight back a groan as he kept talking. “I think we’re almost out. I was going to pick some up, but I guess you beat me to it.”
“Yeah, I guess so,” Kara agreed, angling her body towards the porch and slowly starting to walk, trying to silently indicate that their conversation was over. “See you later,” she said, in what she hoped didn’t sound like an impatient tone.
Michael grinned as he walked around the driver’s side of his car and pulled open the door. “Yeah, see you.”
Kara almost let out of a sigh of relief when Michael finally got in and started the car before backing down the driveway. It took every ounce of restraint she had to keep from running the rest of the way to the door. She managed only until the point that Michael’s car was out of sight, and then she bounded the last few feet, and up the stairs, trying hard not to rip the porch door off it’s hinges as she pulled it open.
***
Lee was lounging in one of the kitchen chairs, reading the remnants of a day old newspaper when he heard footsteps heading for the back door. He shook his head and smiled to himself, assuming it was Michael having forgotten something. Lee folded the paper closed and stood up from the table just as he heard the back door swing open. He turned to ask his friend what he’d forgotten, when suddenly his arms were full and his lips were otherwise occupied.
Kara had flat out launched herself at him, and Lee barely managed to brace himself in time to keep them from both toppling over onto the floor. He grinned against Kara’s eager lips as she pulled herself flush against his body, arousing him instantly. His hands slid into place behind her back, holding her there as he returned the kiss wholeheartedly.
Mouths parted simultaneously, and their tongues twined together frantically, leaving no doubt of their matching attraction for each other. When Kara shifted so that one leg was lifted up over his hip, Lee moved them so that Kara’s back was pressed against the nearby kitchen wall, before sliding his hands down under her ass and lifting her up so that both her legs could wrap tightly around his waist.
They continued to pleasantly assault each other with their mouths, at least up until the point where their only two options were stop or pass out. Reluctantly, Lee found the strength to pull his mouth away from Kara’s, before the lack of oxygen became too much. However, he didn’t remove his hands from where they had come to rest on Kara’s hips, his thumbs dipping below the waistband of her jeans to rub along the top seam of her underwear.
“You’re not Michael,” Lee said teasingly once he had regained enough breath to speak.
Kara looked at him oddly from her vantage point, before cracking up. Lee smiled while she laughed, still not moving from where he had her pinned between him and the wall. “If you’re kissing my brother like this too, I’d say we have a problem.”
Lee grinned, catching Kara’s eye as he leaned forward, closing the distance between them. “Don’t worry,” he said softly. “We definitely don’t have a problem.” Kara’s eyelids fluttered closed upon anticipation of the kiss, but at the last possible second, Lee averted his lips and angled his head to press his mouth against her pulse point. Kara gasped involuntarily, and her legs tightened around Lee’s waist as he sucked lightly. When he knew Kara was just about to break, he stopped, pulling back so he could see her face. The look of pleasure there was quickly replaced by annoyance, and maybe even a hint of real anger. Lee had to stop himself from grinning too broadly in response, but it was the most adorable look in the world.
Kara settled for raising her eyebrow questioningly, in a very ‘I’m not amused’ way. Lee let his grin break through the barrier, and he slowly began to pull away from Kara, forcing her to unwrap her legs from behind his back and slide back down so she was standing on the floor.
“As much as I do love having sex in the kitchen,” Lee explained before she could get truly mad. “Which we have done… several times.” Usually in the morning when Michael’s still sleeping, he added silently. “I thought that with your brother gone for several hours, we should… oh, I don’t know…” He spoke slowly, watching the annoyance disappear from Kara’s face. He leaned in to kiss her quickly, though he was careful to pull away before she could make him forget what he was saying. “Take advantage of a bed.”
Kara smiled at him. “Well, I guess we could…” she said coyly. However she caught him by surprise when she stepped past him, and headed for the boot room, picking up a bag from the supermarket that was sitting on the floor.
Lee had no idea where the bag had come from, even though the only logical explanation was that Kara had brought it in with her. His own inattention didn’t surprise him though-Kara was a complete distraction.
She held out the bag in front of her, a fake pout on her lips. “But what about my ice cream?”
Lee smiled, an idea forming in his mind. He took the bag from her hand and set it on the table, reaching in and pulling out a container of chocolate: Kara’s favorite. He kept that one in his hand, but the put the others in the freezer before walking back to where Kara stood. Holding it out between them, a somewhat questioning look on his face, he said, “We could just take it with us.”
Kara’s eyes brightened with shock and excitement. She grinned widely as she took the container from his hand. “Lee Adama…” She twisted the lid off the ice cream. “How is it that you have a kinky side that I don’t know about yet?”
Lee grinned back, shrugging as he scooped out some of the softening ice cream with his index finger before drawing a line with it along Kara’s jaw. His mouth followed the path his finger had taken, sucking the cold dessert off her skin slowly. She shuddered, her one hand coming up to involuntarily clutch at his T-shirt. Oh yeah, he thought smugly to himself, they were definitely taking the ice cream with them.
***
Kara wasn’t quite sure how they managed to even make it to her bedroom, but she was impressed. After all, the entire way their mouths had been locked together, and they had been very distracted. Kara did however manage to keep a firm grasp on the ice cream container, holding it upright even when they tripped going up the stairs.
Lee had pushed her back up against the closed door to her room, and Kara fumbled behind her with her free hand, trying to get the unruly doorknob to cooperate. Eventually she gave up and just kicked it once, knowing that would do the trick. And it did, though perhaps too efficiently. One second the door was supporting them both, and the next it wasn’t. She was suddenly grateful that her other arm was wrapped so tightly behind Lee’s neck, because it, in combination with Lee’s quick reflexes, was the only thing that saved her from falling onto the floor ass first.
However, the almost fall did not lessen their momentum any. Lee turned them around and immediately began backing them in the direction of her bed, stopping only when the backs of his knees bumped the mattress. He sat down on the edge, but Kara remained standing. Lee’s hands ran up along the outside of her hips and caught the bottom edge of her tank, sliding it up her midsection until it was bunched just beneath her breasts.
Kara bit her tongue to keep a whimper from escaping as Lee pulled her between his legs and set his mouth to work on her stomach. Carefully she set the ice cream down on the nightstand on her right, before threading her fingers through Lee’s hair, encouraging the tantalizing actions of his mouth. He nipped playfully at the skin directly beneath her belly button, and she couldn’t help but clench her hands in his hair. “Oh gods,” she said, practically moaning under her breath, and she felt Lee smirk against her skin in response. Any other man she probably would have smacked for being smug, but Lee had more than earned his bragging rights with her.
Kara moved her hands down to Lee’s shoulders and pushed him backwards on the bed. She grinned at him as she crawled up his body, straddling his waist and bracing her hands on either side of his head before leaning down to kiss him thoroughly. Lee’s lips met hers eagerly.
During the kiss Lee’s hands began to wander, unbuttoning her jeans and undoing the zipper. He tugged them down over the top of her hips and she broke the kiss just long enough to help Lee free both of them from all their restricting clothing. Then she was kissing him again, not holding back a single ounce of passion.
Lee’s hands smoothed themselves up over her now naked torso, caressing as they went, until they finally reached her breasts. He cupped one with each hand, kneading lightly and causing Kara’s body to feel like it was even more on fire. She moaned into his mouth, unable to help herself, and Lee tweaked each of her erect nipples once before returning to the slow massage. The sensation was too much, and Kara rocked back on her heels, crying out in pleasure. Her eyelids fluttered closed as she rode the wave of her first orgasm.
When the tension finally flowed from her body, Lee cupped the back of her neck, bringing her head down for a slow, but very heated kiss. Then gently he rolled them so that she was the one on her back. When she opened her eyes, she saw his intensely smoldering blue ones staring directly at her. Kara’s stomach knotted instantly, accompanied by a sensation that she could only describe as butterflies.
But before she could even begin to ponder it, a hint of mischief twinkled in Lee’s eyes, and suddenly something very cold was being smeared across her breasts. She nearly screamed at the intense sensation, but instead laughed, when Lee scooped another handful out of the container on the bedside table and lathered it all over the rest of her torso, neck, and even on her inner thighs.
“Hungry?” She asked as she smiled in anticipation, unable to help herself.
Lee grinned down broadly at her. “Very,” he replied before lowering his mouth to the underside of her jaw.
He licked and sucked the ice cream away slowly, teasing her to the extreme. When he reached the sensitive spot on her neck, Kara’s eyes very nearly rolled into the back of her head in pleasure. Her back arched of its own accord, causing her ice cream covered chest and stomach to bump against Lee’s. He pulled back a fraction of an inch to look at her and she laughed. “What?” She asked incredulously. “Did you really think I was going to be the only one covered in ice cream?”
Lee smiled and shook his head before returning his attention to the chocolatey mess he’d created. Kara wasn’t sure that she’d ever fully appreciated the talent of Lee’s mouth before this. By the time he’d cleaned up her breasts, stomach, and was sliding down her body, heading for her thighs, she’d already had a second orgasm and was on the brink of a third.
His mouth found its way to the inside of the knee of her propped up leg. Starting at the bottom edge of the ice cream, he made his way upward until his nose brushed the sensitive crease of skin where her leg met torso. Just as Kara could have sworn she was going to break for the third time, Lee pulled back and turned his attention to her other knee, repeating the treatment on her other leg. By the time he made it back up to her center again Kara was trembling.
Lee glanced up at her through half closed eyes before finally placing his mouth where she wanted it most. His lips and the tip of his nose were cold and the blissful contrast between them and the heat between her legs was too much to withstand-she broke.
Kara was sure she would have screamed Lee’s name had her lungs been working at all. Instead she clutched the sheets beneath her tightly in a death grip as her hips bucked upward and waves of pleasure coursed through her. Lee used his hands to keep a steady pressure on her hips, not allowing them to come off the bed. Despite the fact that she was already experiencing a full sensory overload, Lee’s mouth didn’t stop. His tongue slid eagerly between her wet folds, and the tip of his nose brushed lightly against her clit.
When Lee eventually pulled back from between her legs, Kara was almost on the verge of blacking out. One orgasm had quickly rolled into another, and another, and she had just experienced something she hadn’t known was physically possible.
***
Lee watched Kara closely as she came down from her high-she was beautiful like this, with the raw emotion of the moment written across her face. It caused his gut to twist in a funny sort of way that he knew wasn’t related to the throbbing erection he had.
It was several minutes before Kara’s eyes seemed to focus on him, and when they did he smiled down at her, from where he was propped up on one elbow beside her.
She grinned up at him with satiated eyes, and then wrapped one hand lazily around the back of his neck, pulling his mouth down to hers for a lingering kiss. Briefly he wondered if she would be able to taste either the ice cream or herself on his lips, or possibly both. The thought caused a rush of arousal, and he couldn’t help but moan.
Kara broke the kiss, quickly glancing downwards, and her eyes took on a look of pity. “Want me to help you with that?” She asked.
But before he could answer she had grabbed his shoulders, pushing him flat onto his back, with his cock standing painfully erect between them. Kara knelt on the bed and reached for the tub of ice cream, bringing it back towards his body with an impish look in her eyes. She sat back on her heels as she carefully tilted the container on its side, and let the now mostly liquid dessert trickle out slowly, making tiny drops all over his chest. Lee inhaled sharply as the first one hit his skin, and Kara grinned even wider.
When it looked like he’d been hit by the shrapnel of an exploding chocolate bomb, she stopped and put the container on the nightstand again. She kissed him once, quickly, before trailing a finger from his chin, straight down his chest. She didn’t stop when her finger reached his bellybutton, but kept on going past it, lower. Lee’s breath caught in his throat when her nail gently traced a line up one side of his erection and down the other. When he was confident he could breathe again, Lee looked down at Kara, only to find her smiling at him coyly before opening her mouth and going down on him.
***
Over two hours later Lee upended the ice cream container, pouring what little was left in a line down Kara’s spine. Her face was buried in her pillow, and she was half asleep, but she jumped at the feeling of the now warm liquid hitting her skin. He laughed quietly, before leaning over so that he could lick it back off of her. His tongue made one long stroke, starting from where the sheet was barely covering her bottom, up to the nape of her neck. She mumbled something into her pillowcase, but he couldn’t quite make it out.
Lee leaned across her back, whispering into her far ear. “Can’t hear you…”
She angled her head towards him and said slowly, “I’m all sticky.”
Lee laughed and kissed her shoulder. “So am I. I guess it’s a side effect of the ice cream.” He slowly kissed along the top of her shoulders until his mouth was poised by her other ear. “Maybe we should shower.”
“Smart and sexy,” Kara murmured.
Lee chuckled softly. “Shower together,” he added.
Kara rolled onto her back, looking up at him with a smile. “As much as I…”
Lee kissed her before she could get more out. She kissed him back for a few seconds, until she remembered she’d been in the process of saying something. Obviously she was determined to finish, so Lee let her talk, but tried instead to distract her with suckling kisses placed all over her collarbone.
“As much as I would like to agree to that idea…” She paused for a moment as Lee hit a particularly sensitive spot, but then she kept going once he’d moved past. “We can’t,” she stated bluntly.
Lee sighed in defeat and stopped his ministrations. “Because of Michael?” He guessed.
Kara nodded, shrugging her shoulders slightly.
He knew she was right, they really couldn’t. They’d become too careless of late already. The last thing they needed was to try and explain to her brother why they were both coming out of the bathroom at the same time.
“Speaking of which…” Kara added as she rolled over onto Lee, reaching across the bed, while his hand involuntarily came up to wrap behind her waist. “What time is it?” She grabbed the clock on her nightstand and angled it towards them. She made a face at the digits on the display. “He’ll probably be back soon,” she said matter of factly, though Lee thought he might have heard a hint of regret in her voice, or perhaps he was just hoping he’d heard it.
“Yeah,” Lee agreed, smiling weakly at Kara as she rolled back off of him and hopped out of her bed. He watched unabashedly as she pulled the bath towel from the hook on her closet and wrapped it around her body.
She caught Lee’s eye and smiled before padding gently across the floor of her room, and out of the door, heading for the bathroom.
***
Back in her room, Kara put on a fresh set of clothes from her dresser. As she grabbed her favorite hoodie from beside the laundry pile on the floor, which now included her very sticky sheets, she heard the shower turn on from across the hall. Smiling to herself she made her way into the hallway, and down the stairs, trying not to walk stiffly. She entered the kitchen and was just about the raid the cupboards for some food when she heard the doorbell ring. Glancing at the stovetop clock, she confirmed her suspicions: it wasn’t that late, but it was still late enough. Unless Michael had somehow managed to lock himself out of the house, she had no idea who it was.
Kara strode across the kitchen, heading for the boot room and flicking on the porch light as she went. When she pulled open the door, she was shocked to see who was standing on her porch.
“Sam?”
