Make Up Sex
Hear me out: Make up sex. Did it happen here? Not necessarily. Could it have? Absolutely. AW, in her confusion, confliction, and overwhelmed state, behaved selfishly and projected disgust onto AL, when really her internalized homophobia and its resulting impact on her own self-image was to blame. So, that’s pretty serious and she knew it. AW likely couldn’t sleep that night and when she did nightmares of never seeing her lover again took over. She was filled with desperation ever since their conversation so imagine her elation and sense of reprieve upon seeing AL standing at her bedside. AW jumps up, hurries over to AL, and cups her face, making sure she is real - that she really came back. Tears immediately stream down her face. She then throws herself into AL’s arms, embraces her, and begs for forgiveness.
[Here’s where pretend make up sex could happen] AL, remaining silent, employs a calm, authoritative, yet gentle, presence. She tenderly pulls back from AW, wipes her tears, and kisses her. AL’s kiss is deep, sustaining, and strong. While their lips remain locked, AL places her left hand on AW’s lower back and brings her close. AW, still in bed, moves forward on her knees, until all her weight is leant against AL’s formidable body. AL then places her right hand at the base of her lover’s head and presses her mouth with increased intensity into AW’s. They release their lips, just long enough to take a quick breath, then kiss each other vigorously. AW leans back and swings her legs around. Now, sitting on the side of the bed, she opens her legs to make room. AL then moves forward in between them and smoothly lies down on top of AW. They groan and fall into bed together….then, as the saying goes, the rest is make up sex.
