Chapter 513

“She’s about to put the moves on him,” Gemma said, smiling as she put her phone back in her purse.

Sabrina chuckled and took a sip of her water, batting her lashes at Gemma from across the table. The restaurant wasn’t the fanciest in the city - she’d tried to get a table there and found out it was booked eight months in advance - but it was probably the fanciest place either of them had ever eaten. Sabrina had dressed up in a new dress, a sleek and sexy dark blue backless number that she knew would have John dropping his jaw. Gemma had been equally as amazed by the dress, and Sabrina had been thrilled by the reaction.

The blonde, meanwhile, had donned the dress that Sabrina had bought her earlier in the summer when she’d played ‘Sugar Mommy’ while buying John the start of his new wardrobe. It looked as stunning on her as it had in the store - maybe even more now since Gemma had done her hair in an asymmetrical cascade over her one shoulder.

“Let’s hope his dick doesn’t break,” Sabrina said.

“I was more thinking let’s hope they don’t get caught, but that works too,” Gemma smirked.

“Have I mentioned that I love you?” Sabrina asked.

“Once or twice, love,” Gemma said, giving her a look across the table that made the butterflies flutter in Sabrina’s stomach.

“Honestly, baby, I know it’s usually John who puts how wild our lives are, and how big the changes have been, into words. And how lucky he feels. But I want you to know that I feel extremely lucky to have you as ... well, as my best friend, and my girlfriend, and my partner.”

Gemma’s look turned a little more tender and she reached across the table to take Sabrina’s hand. “I don’t know if any one of us could say whose life has changed the most, but I’m super goddamn thankful for you too, Sabrina. Honestly, I feel like you even more than John have helped me figure out my self-identity and crystalize it. I’m queer, which explains ... so much.” She chuckled, shaking her head. “Like, before this summer I never even thought I was attracted to women. Now I’m in a relationship with the sexiest woman I know, sharing the best boy ever with her, and I’ve had more wild and loving experiences than any one person probably deserves. I fucking love you.”

“I fucking love you too,” Sabrina grinned.

The waitress came back around to deliver their entrees, and they took a few minutes to ooh and aah over them, trading little pieces to try the different flavours, until finally they settled into eating. Well, after Sabrina had slipped off her heel and used the cover of the long tablecloth to slide her foot up Gemma’s leg and then rest it between her thighs. She wasn’t teasing her girlfriend’s pussy since the place was way too nice to do that, but just the skin-on-skin connection felt like an illicit thrill.

“OK, part of the reason I wanted this date was just to love on each other,” Gemma eventually said, pivoting the conversation. “But the other part is I wanted time to talk to you, just the two of us, about the future.”

“Alright,” Sabrina said. “I assume you’re doing the same with John?”

“Of course,” Gemma said. “I want us all to have a chance to have our own thoughts about this. I already got John thinking about some of it since he’d take longer to brew on it.”

“Makes sense,” Sabrina nodded.

“Obviously a lot of this is already happening, but the first thing I want to make clear is that I’m jealous but super happy that you two are living together for the school year. I wish I could be with you, but I’m not mad that I can’t be,” Gemma said.
