She followed them into the kitchen and grabbed a beer and her cigarettes and moved to the deck in the back, ignoring the light mist that surrounded her. She lit her cigarette easily, listening as Ginny and Nana moved about the house, Ginny telling her about the plans they had.
She tired to think of a time in her life when she’d felt more content, more at home, and she couldn’t. There was nothing else in her life that could compare to this. She knew without a doubt that she loved Ginny completely. As she also knew that Ginny loved her.
"Baby?"
Before she could turn, a gentle hand stroked her back.
"You okay?" Ginny asked.
Kara turned and moved into Ginny’s arms, hugging her tightly to her chest.
"I’m so in love with you."
She felt Ginny smile against her neck, then soft lips nibbled there.
"Oh, Kara… don’t you know what you do to me? I love you, too, sweetheart."
Their bodies pulled apart, but their eyes did not. Green locked on blue and they smiled. Slow, gentle smiles that touched their hearts… and souls.
