JUST FOR TONIGHT
by Yasmin
The dance-floor was so crowded that everyone was crammed together like sardines in a can. It was midnight, so the room was very hot and the clientele was sweaty. The nightclub's low ceiling trapped the stale air, the cigarette smoke, the aroma of booze and the odor of sticky bodies. The whole place seemed murky, airless and humid. Loud music pounded from the gigantic speakers, sending forth a monotonous thudding beat that made the floor throb beneath the feet of the gyrating multitude. Nobody in the crowd felt comfortable, but nor did anyone care, for this was the most popular lesbian club in town and everyone felt privileged to be there.
The heavy beat began to fade, accompanied by cheers and applause from various parts of the dance-floor. Groups of young women drifted back to their tables, to continue drinking or smoking, or to kiss and caress in shadowy corners. A slower, more leisurely song filtered out from the speakers, but not many dancers stayed on the floor to greet it. Most regarded a slow track as an intermission between bouts of frenetic dancing, or as an opportunity to chat and mingle.
Among the few who remained on the dance-floor were Penny and June, a couple of college girls on their first real date together. Both were freshmen at the university's law school, and both were barely nineteen. Neither of them had much prior experience of same-sex relationships, but nor were they a pair of innocent maidens enjoying a furtive foray into lesbianism. They regarded themselves as one hundred percent gay and were proud to advertise it.
They were fairly tall – around five feet eight inches – with slim, athletic figures and short hairstyles. Penny, a natural blonde, was the pretty one, while swarthy brunette June adopted a slightly butch appearance. Everyone reckoned June's attempt to look tough was somewhat hindered by her gorgeous, soft, Bambi-like eyes. In blue jeans and white teeshirts, she and Penny matched each other well, though their choice of identical outfits was purely coincidental.
When the slow track came through the speakers, Penny put her arms around June's neck to pull her nearer. June sighed softly, placing her hands on the blonde girl's hips as their warm bodies pressed together. This was the closest they had ever got since their first encounter, three days earlier, at the college bar. On the dance-floor they now moved as one, swaying gently in an easy rhythm that was even more leisurely than the slow, hypnotic song. Their lips met briefly in a tender kiss and their heads bent to nuzzle each other's necks. Penny nibbled June's ear, prompting June to reciprocate.
For a while, the girls took turns at mutual ear-nibbling, until Penny became so sexually-aroused that she had to call a halt to it. She pulled her companion closer for a long, passionate kiss that lasted for almost a minute. Before the kiss ended, June's hands moved around Penny's narrow waist to clasp her bottom, feeling its firmness through the denim. Penny purred as her backside was lovingly squeezed and caressed. She gave a small gasp when inquisitive fingers curled over the waistband of her jeans to creep beneath them. Soft, warm fingertips crawled under the denim to stroke her buttocks through the material of her panties.
"Mmmmm.....keep doing it," she murmured dreamily, while planting tiny kisses on June's neck. "Your touch feels so lovely."
June rested her chin on Penny's shoulder before peering over and downward to snatch a peek under the waistband of the jeans. She found the view rather pleasing. With a gleeful grin she whistled softly to express her admiration.
"Red satin underwear," she observed. "Nice and smooth and shiny. I love to see sexy panties on a cheeky little butt."
"I'm glad you like them," Penny replied. "I bought them specially, just for tonight."
"Good choice," said June. "Satin feels so sensual, and red is such a hot color. I love the silky texture and the....." her words faded into a moan of pleasure, as fingers tugged forcefully at the zipper in the front of her jeans.
"Oh God!" she hissed. "Be careful. Everyone can see what you're doing."
"Hush," Penny whispered. "Just relax." While she spoke, her hand passed through the unzipped crotch of June's jeans, expecting to find a layer of underwear. Instead, to her surprise and delight, her fingertips touched a soft mat of tiny bristles.
"No panties?" she remarked. "Did you forget to put them on?"
"I left them off deliberately," June answered. "Just for tonight."
"Good choice!" said Penny, as she puckered her lips for another kiss.
