Making Up (and Out) With Michelle

My Mother's Friend

AMANDA'S POV

I struggle to open my eyes. The dream of a nurse kissing my cheek and coming in to check on me throughout the night slowly erases from my memory.

My head starts pounding and I try to lay on my back but I struggle.

I finally opened my eyes. I'm laying on my side. One of the first things I see is a bin on the side of the bed.

I slowly sit up rubbing my face trying to wake myself. I hold my head and look back and see a bunch of pillows stacked up.

I see now why I couldn't lay on my back.

I look at the nightstand and see the cure of this headache, a bottle of water and an advil.

I take the pill and move the pillows out of the way.

I lay down staring at the ceiling. I'm slowly drifting back to sleep.

I sit up in a quick motion realizing that I'm not in my room.

I instantly recognized the ceiling due how many times I've stared up at it while being with Michelle.

I look for my phone and it's still in my pocket. I'm still wearing what I had on yesterday minus the graduation robe. I took it off and left it in Ollie's car.

I call Ollie and she doesn't answer. She hasn't been picking up my calls lately.

I call Lisa and she also doesn't answer.

I think of what to do next. I know she has a bathroom here so I head there and throw water in my face to wake myself up.

I look for all my belongings and slowly open the door.

I poke my head out and look around.

I don't see Michelle.

I try to make as little sound as possible. I make it to the living room and I see Michelle sleeping on her couch.

I tippie toe past her and as soon as I grab the door handle I hear

"

Do you need a ride home?"

I quickly turn around and see Michelle rubbing her eyes. I can't help but notice how pretty she looks even with her messy bed hair.

"I was going to call Ollie to come pick me up."

"I think she had a busy night but you can wait for her here if you want."

"I...okay sure."

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling better now."

"You can use my bathroom to freshen up if you want. Your clothes are still in the closet. I'll make us something to eat in the meantime."

"Okay."

...

I take a shower and try to ignore all the memories that keep coming back to me, every minute I spend here.

I need to get out of here soon.

As I step out of the shower I hear my phone vibrate.

Seeing that it's Ollie I quickly answer it.

"Hell-"

"I need a ride home now!" I interrupted her.

"Uh yeah, just hold o-"

"Hurry!"

"Manda, relax. I'm on my way."

"Don't tell me to relax, I can't believe y'all left me with Michelle."

"Hey it was Liz's idea. Besides, it's not like handing your drunk ass to your mother would have been better."

"Well...why did you let me get that drunk in the first place."

"Girl, don't start with that. You just graduated. You don't need us to babysit you. Plus we did look out for you by not sending you to your death."

"Well...why couldn't I stay with Lisa?"

"Err... there was something she had to do."

"Fine, whatever just come and pick me up please."

"On my wa-"

"Hey bab-'' I hear someone say before Ollie interrupts her.

"Shhhh!"

"Who's that?" I ask.

"NO ONE!"

Ollie mumbles something but it's hard to make out.

After what sounded like the phone being dragged across the bed I hear Lisa's stern voice says "Hello? Who are you?"

"Lisa? You're with Ollie? I thought you had something important to do?"

"Amanda? Oh! Uh, yeah. I made her finish quickl- *SMACK* err I mean I finished quickly and I came over to hang."

"Wow! So you two just abandoned me over here."

"It was Liz I swear." Ollie says. "Don't worry. I'm on my way."

"Olivia, wait! Amanda, have you made up with Michelle?"

"What!? No. I've just been hiding in her restroom, please hurry."

"On my wa-"

"No!" Lisa interrupts Ollie."

"What?" l ask.

"Not until you talk to Michelle."

"Are you serious!? Ollie, don't listen to her come pick me up."

"It's for your own good Amanda."

"Liz, maybe I should..."

"Olivia if you stay here I'll...while wearing...and you can do...plus anything else you want to me."

I'm not able to make out everything that Lisa whispers to Ollie.

"Uh, hey. Amanda maybe you should talk to Michelle you know...for like closure or something." I hear sounds like someone's lips smacking. "Anyway, I'll pick you up in an hour or two. Bye!"

Ollie hangs up and I'm furious. I quickly get dressed and I plan a way to leave Michelle's house without making it awkward.

Closing my eyes I quickly walk to the door which was a bad idea since I end up crashing into the door face first.

"Ow!"

"Amanda, are you okay?" I hear Michelle say.

She walks towards me but stops as I back away, placing my back against the door.

Michelle lets out a deep breath and asks "Is Ollie picking you up?"

I shake my head "I'm going to book a ride home." I say pointing at my phone.

"Okay, I'm available if you need anything. You can also wait in the living room."

She turns off the stove top.

"I'll be in the shower. Feel free to get yourself something to eat or drink."

Michelle leaves the room and I walk outside putting my back against the door. I let out a sigh of relief before pulling out my phone to book a ride home.

Before I could click on the app a notification pops up. I open it and it's just my friends posting about their graduation.

I'm about to close the app when a photo of Michelle and two other girls appear on my feed.

I can't understand the caption but Michelle is sitting between them as the two beautiful girls kiss Michelle on each of her cheeks. They seem to be in a dark room with different colored lights in the background.

A bunch of emotions run through my body as I stare at the post.

I lock my phone and turn around. I try to open the door but it's locked. I knock on the door. I continue knocking for a while until I hear Michelle shout

"COMING!"

She opens the door.

I was speechless only being able to stare at her. This was the first time I had really looked at her since she came back. Her beautiful baby blue eyes were mesmerizing. Her hair looked darker probably due to it being wet. Her skin was glistening and I couldn't take my eyes off of a water droplet running down her neck towards her chest. Disappearing under her bathrobe.

I think I may have made her get out of the shower early.

"Amanda? Are you okay?" she asks.

I don't say anything instead I launch forward, crashing my lips with hers.

Michelle breaks the kiss and asks "Amanda?"

My body takes over and I hungrily kiss my way down her neck towards her chest.

I place my face on her chest and plant kisses between her breasts.

I get startled as I'm lifted off my feet. Without missing a beat I envelope her lips again. I wrap my legs around Michelle's waist as she walks towards her bedroom.

Our lips break apart once again as Michelle drops me gently on the bed. I focus on Michelle's kisses as they trail down my neck. Her hands roam my body making a moan escape from my mouth.

Michelle's lips leave my skin as she sticks two fingers in her mouth. I watch with anticipation, our eyes lock as she sucks on them.

Her other hand unbuttons my pants with ease.

Seems like she's had a lot of practice.

She pulled my zipper allowing her two fingers to slip past.

My hands clench, pulling at the covers as her fingers slowly enter me.

It's been awhile since I've felt this way. Michelle's mouth joins her fingers causing me to throw my head. My body matches Michelle's rhythm and it's not long before I feel my orgasm building up.

I cross my legs trapping Michelle's hand as my orgasm hits. Michelle takes this time to undress me and begins placing kisses all over my body while I look up at the familiar ceiling once again...

"Aaaah! Mmph fuuuuccck!" I yell out as another orgasm hits.

Michelle, using her arms to keep me from squeezing her head with my thighs, slows down gently cleaning up my juices with her tongue.

Michelle crawls up on top of me and we kiss. After a long makeout session we end up naked in each other's arms, none of us saying a word.

"I missed you." Michelle breaks the silence.

"I missed you so much."

"Me too." I reply in a small voice.

After another long moment of silence Michelle says "Amanda I'm sorry...for-"

"No."

I interrupt her

"Don't be. You didn't do anything wrong. In fact I am the one who should be sorry. I acted like a brat instead of trying to talk things out with you."

"It's understandable to feel like that knowing that I and...your..."

"I know...I just..."

Another period of silence, this time allowing us to think and try to put our feelings into words.

"I don't want to keep things from you Amanda. Which is why I told you." Michelle is the first to speak.

"It's not that. I'm glad you told me the truth. I just wasn't ready to hear it."

"I know it must of hurt you thinking about your mother and I-"

"YES, but...that's not the only reason why I acted the way I did. I guess I was jealous. I wanted to be the only person that you experience those types of things with. I know it's childish, I mean getting out of your car and running away was also childish but..."

"Amanda, I like you and only you. I want you to know everything about me just like I want to know everything about you and if you allow me, I'll spend every moment showing you how much you mean to me."

"Please do." I whisper.

Michelle's lips meet mine and after more hours of Michelle showing me we end up falling asleep.
