The Last Primal

As if their lips were magnets of opposite poles, Sarah and even Aiden felt an inexplicable force that wanted to push them forward, closer to each other.

As Aiden kept matching the heated woman's hazy eyes, he felt a strange, new feeling, some new sensation, similar to excitement bubbling up inside him. He felt this strange churn in his stomach, he felt the pulsating heat as his body and rapidly beating heart tried its best to match up to the woman in front of him. It wasn't the first time, he felt the increased pace, the rapid thumping of his heart, but usually, it happened under heightened duress. This situation, whilst it could be considered tense, there was no visible danger ahead, unless his receptors were warning him of something he couldn't see, hear or sense in any way.

It was the first time he felt this strange, new feeling, this hunger to bite on those pouty, small, oval-shaped lips of Sarah. It was the first time, he didn't know why he found it harder to stare back at the girl as the seconds, the moments continued to pass with tense silence surrounding them.

"Sarah, I…" Opening his lips Aiden tried to diffuse the situation but was silenced once again when suddenly, the woman, who kept flitting her gaze between his incredible eyes and his lips for several long seconds now, suddenly jolted into action and leaned forward once more.

Her pouted lips rapidly closed the minuscule distance and locked themselves with the boy's as he was once again, for the nth time, was stunned by the girl's perplexing actions. Wide-eyed he tried looking at the girl hoping to get some answers but to no avail. 

The girl, completely giving herself to the moment, has closed her eyes and let her rapidly pounding, maiden heart take over the control. It lasted only for a fleeting moment, before the girl slowly pulled her reluctant lips away from the boy, and averted her eyes, suddenly finding the crackling campfire much more interesting than everything else.

As her heart was finally satisfied, it returned the control to her mind, which, unable to process her own actions, froze on the spot. She found the situation much too embarrassing, but some unknown force refused to let Sarah stand up and bolt away before she could get at least some short reaction out of the boy. 

Focusing her gaze on the dancing flames, she did not dare to peak at Aiden even the slightest before she could hear his words.

Looking ahead, Aiden remained frozen in place for several seconds before his wide-eyed expression started to thaw and return his stunted facial expression to life. His face turning from shock, to surprise to eventually settle on a goofy smile. He wasn't sure why, but he found the action pleasant. The taste of her lips was sweet, something he didn't expect to enjoy too much. 

However, he quickly recognized that the taste was a different kind. This subtle savor was something that seemed to affect his heart rather than his energy reserves or his stomach. The initial warm pulsation and rapid beat turned even faster, more violent. For a moment, when their lips touched for the first time, Aiden actually had the thought of grabbing for his own organ otherwise it might escape through his flesh. 

Although barely a second had passed, it felt like almost an eternity for the girl as she kept nervously fidgeting, waiting for something tangible from the boy. Feeling increasingly more embarrassed, she was reaching the limits of her patience, and was about to speak up when she finally felt a movement from the corner of her eyes. 

Suddenly feeling an unexplainable loss on the surface of his own mouth, Aiden reached for it and gently touched his own lips, the same spot where just a mere moment ago, Sarah interlocked hers with his. A sense of loss, a tinge of uncomfortable reaction zapped through his nervous system, giving a reminder and a warning that what he experienced was not something that he could simply rationalize with his mind.

"Thank you…" Eventually, these simple words seemed the most appropriate. From the slight crack between his upper and lower lip the word "Thank you" was whispered into the wind. He looked ahead, lost in the moment as if the words themselves were visible as the gentle wind carried them forward towards its intended recipient.

Even though his response was short, Sarah still felt an almost forgotten sensation, joy surging from the depth of her soul, reaching all parts of her very being. This simple phrase of his, this simplistic, most basic way of showing gratitude was already more than enough for the girl to feel invigorated, refreshed even. 

Her embarrassed, nervous expression, suddenly calmed down, and a goofy, wide grin began to stretch her facial muscles. She could see their kiss in front of her eyes in the dancing, entangling flames. Even though the whole event lasted barely a second and could be said that it was nothing more than the touching of their lips, for her, it was the best and obviously only kiss of her entire life. 

She did not find her Mistress's, no, her MOTHER's words strange or uncomforting any longer. Now, she could finally relate to her advice and felt like that the idea of getting closer to this long, black-haired, golden-eyed, and creole-skinned young man would be really enjoyable. 

Heaving a heavy sigh, she slowly and silently sat up, and with her face deeply colored with a mixture of red and pink, she looked at the boy next to him who still looked as if he was lost in his own thoughts trying to regain his own composure. The fact that she finally managed to strain that ever-present calmness from his face, seemed incredibly joyous, she let out a light-hearted chuckle as she spoke with a soothing, gentle voice.

"I will take a few extra moments to rest my eyes before we set out." Turning around, she walked back to her own tent before Aiden would have had the chance to react to her words at all.

Several minutes had to come to pass before Aiden managed to finally shake down his nervous shackles and regain some of his lost composure. He looked towards the girl's tent, still not sure what had just happened. 

He wasn't a complete idiot, he eventually realized that there were no ill-thoughts from the girl. Sarah didn't just look at him as a partner for the mission, and maybe a potential friend. No, this was more than that.

Touching his lips once more, he found the spot where they touched to be very sensational. Every time his fingers gently caressed that fated spot, he felt his own heart react, and increase the pace of its rhythm ever so slightly.

"You know, I was expecting to be your first, to be honest…" Suddenly a familiar voice came from the other tent, jolting Aiden from his feverish trance. Turning towards the source of the noise, he saw the tall, blonde amazon emerging from her tent, with a mischievous grin stretching across her face. 

With confident, large, wide steps she quickly walked next to the boy and sat down at his left side. Not minding that she would be interrupting his peaceful lamentation, she jostled next to him, and without any warning, she leaned against him, resting her head on his shoulder.

A bit more clearer with his situation with the amazon, Aiden could only smile wryly, not running away and letting the girl use his body as her pillow. 

Several seconds to a minute had passed once again in silence as both of them watched the rhythmic pulsation of the flames in front of them. Fixated on the long dancing silhouette it cast against the ground, the blonde amazon spoke after a long while. 

"You know, I don't mind not being your only one…" she began, confusing Aiden more and more with her words. 'Only one?! What does that mean?' However, before he could spend more time thinking it through, Naybeah continued. "...but at least I want to be your first, doing that!"

"Doing what?" Aiden asked, unable to keep his silence any longer. He found both girls to be equally confusing in the way they acted. 

"You know…" Lifting her head from her shoulder, Naybeah lifted her brows, waving her head towards the fire, trying to explain her thoughts in the worst way possible. "THAT! The THING!"

"Sorry, but I don't understand you at all…" Shaking his head, Aiden looked at the girl with a confused stare.

"You know… THAT! You can't… sleep with other women before doing it with me!" With great difficulty, she finally managed to blurt out the statement she herself didn't dare think of. Feeling the burning sensation due to the sheer volume of embarrassment, Naybeah was unable to stay any longer, she jumped up from her seat and rushed back to her tent, but not before stealing a quick smooch on the boy's left cheek, leaving Aiden by himself once again with his increasing headache over recent events.

"Sleep with other women? But I sleep with Lilly all the time…" Looking at the entrance of the amazon's tent, he only shook his head. Turning her gaze towards Sarah's he heaved a sigh, lamenting on the events that had just transpired, not understanding either of them at all...
