Work Text:
We two are moving forward, one step at the time
“This is not going to work if you keep fidgeting like that.” Ahsoka sounded slightly irritated. Nothing new really there these days. But in bed? Well, it was kind of rude, right?!
“Well, you were taking your time weren’t you.” It was supposed to come out in jest, alas, it sounded more like an accusation, well sorts when the words slipped from Barriss’ mouth.
Ahsoka looked up and at her partner from the spot she was currently occupying. The one special place she liked to be at very much so. Between her lover’s legs.
“Look, I know this is all…” Ahsoka motioned around the general area of them both, “supposed to be us getting reacquainted with each other and all. But, you are being rather demanding aren’t ya, my sweet, sweet Ris.”
Ahsoka was trying to roll it back, trying to keep things fun and humorous.
As it was certainly true it had been a while since the two had been together. In bed, having sex.Things having been rather different back then though. A life time ago it was.
And so, guess it really wasn’t like riding a hover bike after all, the sex thing with an old partner. As said partners’ preferences did change over the years. And it was true for both Ahsoka and Barriss.
As had theirs too changed a lot. They were both changed as persons, so why keep up with old habits in our out of the bedroom, or whatever room one decided on having sex.
“I know sweetie, I know… And I am sorry for sounding a tad… well, harsh. But perhaps, we really should have discussed about all of this before you know, jumping straight into bed.”
“Yeah, yeah, Ris, we really should have.”
There was a spell of silence before either of them spoke again. It was Barriss who broke it.
“Look, Soka, maybe we just cuddle tonight. I mean, there is no hurry, right?”
Cuddling, touching, kissing, all that was really nice. And they had done plenty of it too in the short amount to time the forgiveness had been asked and given. And so, figuring soon enough out, they really could not keep their hands off of each other, one thing leading to another. And so here they were, in bed together. Hot, naked and slightly bothered. And not in a good way either it seemed.
Ahsoka seemed to contemplate the offer for a moment. Then coming to a decision. As clearly, this was not going anywhere, the old bag of tricks not working between the two.
“Fine. Agreed.” Ahsoka moved from her spot, the one she had loved to be in the past oh so very much. “Cuddles are nice. And maybe, later on, we can, you know, like you said. Talk about this. All of this.”
Barriss smiled, widely so. Her arms open as she beckoned for her lover to join her. “Yes, we really should talk. Guess, we have both learnt a few new tricks during our time apart.”
Ahsoka made herself very comfortable in the warm embrace of Barriss’. Having always enjoyed the snuggles, the closeness the skin on skin contact provided.
“Tomorrow, okay. Now, I just want to enjoy you my sweet Ris, right here and now. It’s been a while.”
It really had, but guess live and learn?
