**************************
It's very cold. Liv flicks on the heater as she closes the door of her New Zealand house behind her and closes the outside world away. The warmth quickly spreads through the house and Liv's chattering teeth start to ease. She takes her coat off and hangs it up carefully, looking for a moment at the scarf hanging inside the closet. It had been left behind during Alicia's last visit, a few months ago. Her cheeks flush and she feels warm remembering how it felt on her wrists, and later, across her eyes.
The cold of outside is a dim memory now. Sharp memories of warmth, blonde hair, soft kisses, penetration with fingers or more and Liv's almost hot now. If Alicia was here...but she wasn't. Liv sighed and put on the kettle. Coffee, while no substitute for Alicia's arms, would help her stay warm.
It's the nights that are lonely. The days and evenings are filled with work and off-set socialising, but at night, Liv wants to hold Alicia, tell her about her day. Oh, and sex would be nice, though really, Liv could have given that up to have Alicia there.
She's talked with Sean about this, he misses Christine the way Liv misses Alicia. But Christine's visiting right now, so Liv can't even call Sean up and suggest a bad DVD night tonight, something they've done a lot while the others have been out pub crawling and they've wanted a quieter time. And Sean's safe. He's not about to wonder if Liv really just needs a taste of cock to prove that maybe there are other options out there. Liv's had that. Several times. But she always goes back to Alicia, the only person who's ever been able to make her come with just a kiss.
This separation has helped Liv realise why it had always been Alicia that she came back to, and next time she visits, Liv intends to tell her why. But that will have to wait. Liv wants to see Alicia's face when she tells Alicia that she loves her, that she's in love with her and wants to commit to them. Liv wonders when Alicia might visit again, they left things open when she left before. She'll ask Alicia in her next email. That shouldn't seem like pushing it.
As she finished her coffee, Liv decided to take a bath before dinner. It's only 7 pm - 4 am in LA, she thought fleetingly - so it wouldn't be too late if she ate after. Pouring a glass of wine, Liv lit a candle and was halfway across her bedroom when the phone rang. She debated letting the machine pick it up, but it might be Miranda or Cate suggesting a girly night out.
"Hello?" Liv said, putting the candle down on the opposite side of the bed from the phone. It was the only light in the room.
"Hi," the last voice in the world Liv expected to hear said.
"Alicia? Isn't it the middle of the night there?" Liv asked, trying to hide just how pleased she was to hear that voice right now.
"Four am. I went to bed around eight, and I've been awake for ten minutes trying to go back. Seeing I can't, I thought I'd give you a call. Not interrupting anything, am I?"
"Only a glass of wine and a hot bath. Which can always wait for you," Liv said, her tone as light and teasing as she could make it.
"Wish I could be there to share them," Alicia replied, voice a little wistful.
"Me too," Liv said before she could stop herself. It was true, anyway.
"How's everything? Fallen in love with a hobbit yet?" Alicia teased. "Or a man?"
"Most of them are committed to someone back home, or just getting over one, or...well, let's just say that the only ones to try anything are the ones who I wouldn't touch with the proverbial ten foot pole. But I already told you about them."
"I still say you should have let me kick his ass, at least verbally," Alicia said, sounding angry. "I hate guys who think cock is the be all and end all of sex!"
"You hate 99% of the world's population of males?" Liv giggled.
"Only the ones who don't listen when presented with alternatives," Alicia said. "Besides, if I wanted a cock to fuck you with, I could just strap one on."
"You could?" Liv wriggled a little at the idea. She'd used a dildo before on herself, even with a partner, but not with Alicia. And not a strap-on.
"We don't need a guy to have a cock, that's all."
"How's work?" Liv asked, not wanting to get more turned on than she usually did when talking to Alicia.
"Great. I have tomorrow off, and I just crawled into bed tonight, which was actually a pretty good move as I got to talk to you and we're both pretty awake." Liv could feel the smile through the phone.
"We are," Liv agreed. "Though I'm exhausted physically. Hence the bath. Then I'll eat and I guess I'll crawl into bed then. After talking with you, that is."
"Glad I made the list," Alicia laughed.
"Always," Liv said. "I really miss you, Alicia."
"I miss you too, Liv. I have a couple days off soon. I think I'd like to visit you."
"It's winter here now." Liv wasn't about to say how much she wanted to see Alicia.
"That doesn't matter. We can cuddle in front of the fireplace if it's too cold to do anything else."
Liv's nipples tighten at the thought of that. Drinking wine and holding each other, hands straying to intimate places, sex in front of the fire. "We could..." she said, a little breathless.
"Are you sure you're alone?" There was an odd note in Alicia's voice. Not quite jealousy...Liv hoped.
"Certain," Liv answered, deciding that she'd have to get herself off before her bath. Alicia's voice was making her nerves tingle.
"What are you wearing?"
"What?" Liv almost giggled.
"What are you wearing, Liv?"
"Uh...my black jeans, blue t-shirt, I kicked my shoes off a while back, and my underwear," Liv said hesitantly.
"What underwear?"
Liv blushed. "The black lace bra and panties set you got me when you were here."
"Oh? Any particular reason?"
"I felt like something sexy this morning. I had to film the kiss with Viggo and...well..."
"So you wanted to feel sexy as yourself to make the scene work."
"Yeah, I did," Liv agreed. "And, you know, black lace."
"The cut of the bra and panties on you, you mean," Alicia laughed.
"I don't look at myself to get turned on," Liv protested.
"That's all it takes for me."
"Oh..." Liv couldn't say any more.
"And as for your voice," Alicia continued.
"What about my voice?" Liv was confused.
"Your voice turns me on, you could be reading the phone book and I'd be soaking wet for you, Liv," Alicia's voice was husky. "Your telling me you're wearing that underwear? I'm wet and my clit's throbbing."
"You are?" Liv's face felt like it was on fire, but it was nothing compared to the rest of her.
"Oh, yes. You turn me on, Liv. So much. But you knew that already."
"I know, but that's when we're together," Liv whispered.
"Not only then," Alicia said. "All the time. It's just more intense when we're together. Don't you feel the same?"
"Yes," Liv whispered. "I'm going to have to come before I get in the bath."
"You are." It wasn't a question. "Take your clothes off, Liv. Now."
"Why?" Liv didn't know why Alicia was asking this.
"Because we're going to have phone sex. Seeing I can't be there to get on my knees and suck your clit until you come, we're going to have to do it this way."
"I've never..." Liv felt shy. She was a little more uninhibited with Alicia, but not like this.
"Clothes. Off. Now."
Liv put the phone down and obeyed, but kept the bra and panties on. She looked at her jeans and was shocked at the dark mark on them. She'd soaked through them. "Back," she said to Alicia, noticing that the room was warm enough to be comfortable without clothes.
"I'm lying in my bed, and I'm naked," Alicia said. "On the black satin sheets that you like so much."
"It's the contrast," Liv said. "You, all pale and golden and the sheets so dark...the perfect background for you."
"What sheets are you using? Have I seen them?"
"Actually, I just put the dark blue ones we used when you were here back on," Liv answered.
"Oh, yessss..." Alicia moaned softly. "You, naked, on those sheets, your legs spread, waiting for me...what kind of light is there? I have the bedroom lights on, but low."
"I...I'm not naked," Liv said. "I'm still in the bra and panties. I was a little self-conscious. And there's just a candle lighting the room. A big one, so it's about the same amount of light as you."
'Self-conscious when you're by yourself in that cosy, heated house? If I was living there, I'd be naked unless I had someone coming over. But you do look beautiful in that underwear. That's why I got it for you. But I really would like you out of it...oh..." Liv didn't know what Alicia was doing to herself, but she did as she was asked, unhooking the bra and taking it off, then she had a thought.about what she'd really do if Alicia was there, if she was watching her.
"I'm lying here, with the panties still on, and I'm running my fingers over them, Alicia. I can feel your eyes burning into my skin. You're watching as I rub, feeling how wet you've made me. You have, you know, just talking to you, thinking of you doing those things to me..." her fingers rubbed through the panties before she finally took them off. "I had to take them off," she breathed. "I want to be naked for you..."
"Lie down on the sheets, Liv. I want you there, waiting for me. Like I'm here, waiting for you."
Liv lay there, feeling the soft cotton of the sheets against her bare skin. It was a little rough in places and it felt good. The phone was lying next to her ear and she picked it up again..
"Are you lying there waiting for me?" Alicia asked.
"Yes," Liv said. "I'm just waiting for you to touch me now." She knew all the touches would have to be herself, but she wanted Alicia to tell her how to do it. Except... "Or should I be touching you?"
"Not yet," Alicia said. "I want to touch you first. Is your hair still up?"
"Yes," Liv said. "I haven't taken it down yet. I left it for you, because I know you like to do it."
"Mmmmm," Alicia murmured. "I'm holding you in my arms, my hands slipping up to your hair, running through it and untwisting it, letting it fall over the bed . God, you look amazing like that, your hair everywhere."
Liv did what Alicia said, running her hand through her hair and letting it fall softly on her skin. She moaned when the ends brushed her nipples.
"What caused that?" Alicia asked. "It was hot..."
"It brushed my nipples," Liv gasped. "You know how sensitive they are..."
"I do," Alicia agreed. "I have to touch them now, see if I can make you moan like that again...my fingers stroke over your neck, softly, then down to your breasts. Oh, I love your breasts, I could touch them forever, Liv. So perfect. Your nipples are puckered as I touch them, and you moan."
Liv's fingers followed the motions Alicia described and just as she said the words, Liv moaned, her nipples peaking as she pulled them gently. Shocks went through her body as she did.
"Does that feel good?" Alicia murmured.
"The only thing that would feel better is if it was you..." Liv sighed.
"Soon," Alicia promised. "But for now...I'm gently pulling on your nipples, playing there, licking, sucking, just making you feel good."
Liv plucked at her swollen nipples, moaning, only half-hearing Alicia's words. Her legs spread slowly apart as she became more aroused. "I'm so hot..." she whimpered.
"Mmm, you are, your skin is all flushed and you're breathing hard, I can hear it. God, you're beautiful like this. Is there anything else I should know about how you look?" Alicia's voice sounded like a wicked smile.
So hot she was past being embarrassed by how Alicia was making her feel, Liv moaned again. "My legs...spreading for you, need you there..." she wanted to touch, but she couldn't, not until Alicia said what she would do to her.
"I'm a tease, you know that," Alicia murmured. "So I lick over your breasts a little more, sucking, biting a little, trailing my tongue over them. Then I bury my face between them, listening to your heartbeat."
"I'm holding your head there, feeling your tongue lick me, I want more but this is just right for now," Liv whispered.
"It's enough, also, because there's more I want to do to you. My tongue trails down your stomach. As I'm licking there, my fingers find your clit at last."
"Oh, god....." Liv moaned as her fingers touched her clit, slick wetness almost making them slip off.
"You're very wet for me, and I want to taste you," Alicia's breathing was heavier and Liv wondered for a second what she was doing to herself. "I'm licking now, inside you, god I love how you taste."
Liv slipped a finger inside, the other hand moving over her clit. "God..."
"I'm moving up to your clit now, my tongue licking it, so gently, then wrapping my lips around it. My fingers are inside you, god, you're so hot, so wet...I bring my fingers out and taste, then I bring one to your mouth. I want you to taste yourself."
"I can't..." Liv protested.
"Yes, you can," Alicia was insistent.
"I've never..."
"Now," Alicia said, her voice persuasive. "Come on, Liv. It's a rush..."
"Yeah?" Liv smiled a little. "I guess it can't hurt..." She lifted a finger to her mouth and tasted. Different from Alicia, or even herself in Alicia's mouth. "Oh...."
"Yeahhhhhh...." Alicia moaned. "God, want to see that...."
"Mmmm," Liv agreed. "God, so close, Alicia, need more..."
"Put another finger inside," Alicia said. "I'm adding another, and wriggling them, like you like me to..."
"Ohhhhhhh."
"Come for me, Liv...come all over my fingers and tongue..."
Liv was so close that those words were all it took. She sobbed and moaned, her fingers working inside her and on her clit, faster and faster, and she came, feeling wetness all over her hands, dripping onto the sheets. Without a thought, once the first shock was over, she brought the fingers that were inside her to her mouth, licking them. She shuddered and came again, the fingers on her clit bringing her over the edge a second time. "Yessssssssssssss..."
She didn't know how long it was before she remembered the phone.
"Sorry," she murmured, a sated smile on her face. "I get quiet when I come..."
"I remember. Did it feel good?"
"Like I think I panted out, the only thing better would be you being here," Liv replied.
"Oh, yes?"
"I could hold you," Liv said. "That's really all that's missing right now."
"It is. But soon. Next weekend okay for you?"
"Very okay. I wish it could be this, but I do understand..."
"So do I," Alicia said. "I want to take you out, you know. Like we did last time. Get you off right in front of someone again. I still can't believe Orlando didn't figure it out."
"Maybe he could even join us," Liv said daringly.
"I thought you said you hadn't found anyone..." Alicia said.
"I haven't, but if I had..." Liv replied. "He's still kind of getting over someone. And, well, he could really do with some cheering up. But..."
"But?"
"I wouldn't want to if you weren't here," Liv said.
"Oh...well, maybe after I get my fill of you, we can talk about it?" Alicia said.
"Sounds good to me. Now..." Liv's voice went husky. "I believe I haven't had the chance to touch you yet..."
"I'm all yours," Alicia said. "Lying here naked on my bed, waiting. I warn you, the things I did to you, it won't take long..."
"Good," Liv murmured. "I'll just kiss your breasts for a while...suck your nipples until they're hard and aching."
"God, please, don't tease me," Alicia moaned. "Want your mouth on me when I come..."
"All right, I'll lick down and flick my tongue over your clit. Curl it round and suck, hard. God, you taste amazing. Sharp, sweet..."
"God...want...more..."
"Fingers in you? God, so wet, two slide in without any effort at all, and you're so hot. While I pump them in and out, I tap on your clit with a fingernail. Want you to do that..."
"All right...oh, fuck! That's...god... gonna come soon..."
"Do it again," Liv whispered.
"Oh...oh...." All Liv could hear were long, drawn out moans, then silence. "Was it good?"
"Yes. God, like you said. Only being here would be better..."
"Soon," Liv promised. "I have plans..."
"Oh?"
"Surprise."
"Oh...."
"Yes," Liv grinned.
"You need to take that bath now, and I should shower and try again to sleep," Alicia said.
"Now I really wish you were here," Liv sighed wistfully. "I'd take the bath with you."
"We will," Alicia said. "The first thing I want to do - after we do what we just did over the phone."
"Sounds like a plan. Whichever of us is here first gets naked and waits for the other?"
"Now that's the kind of start to a visit I could get used to," Alicia laughed.
"I'll think about it every night until you're here," Liv said.
"Me too."
"I should go..." Liv sighed. "I'm so tired."
"I'll be there soon, and I can always call again," Alicia said.
"Anytime."
"Talk to you soon," Alicia sounded a little sad.
"Bye," Liv said and hung up before she could talk herself into staying on the line longer. She stretched and yawned before resuming her very pleasantly interrupted walk to the bathroom.
