     Am I Crazy
     Part Five

       "I have to admit that I didn't have the hardships that you did. You
went through much more than I did baby. I'm sorry it was so hard for you, I
really am but I'm also so proud of you for believing in me even when I lost
my own faith in my abilities." Sophie told had as a frown come across her
face showing Renee how bad she felt about all that she had to go through.

       "Babe, you made it back to me, that is all I care about. You kept
your promise and that is all that matters so now get on with your story. I
want to know what happened to you and how you made it back." Renee said as
she gave Sophie's hand a squeeze.

       "Well I don't remember much about the accident, actually I don't
seem to remember anything about it except for looking up at you and seeing
the fear in your eyes and the sadness. I remember telling you that I had to
go and that I would come back to you. I just couldn't hurt you and leave
you alone to face this cruel world alone."  Sophie told her making Renee
smile as that meant so much to her.

       "I woke up in this really nice apartment. I mean it was beautiful
with all the types of things that I like. There was plants all over the
place and on the balcony there was a big rose bush in a huge pot. There was
also lovely flowers in pots around the railing. I looked over the city and
the first thing I noticed was how quiet it was and the fact that there were
no cars or anything. People were walking around or riding weird looking
bicycles. The air was so clear with no pollution at all. When I inhaled, it
was like you were out in the country and not in the middle of some big
city.  The air was fresh and full of scents that were pleasant like baking
bread or flowers. It just depended on which way the breeze was blowing. I
just stood on the balcony and enjoyed the view.  I'm not sure how long that
I was there before I remembered my promise to you."

       Sophie paused for a moment before going on, "I then ran from my
apartment to find whoever was in charge so I could tell them of my promise
and that I needed to get back here. I ran down the stairs and out the
door. When I got there, I stopped as I looked over the people walking by. I
saw two men walking together holding hands and no one seemed to pay them
any mind. It wasn't that they were ignoring them, they weren't, as they
were stopped by several other couples and they talked. It was like it
wasn't any big deal for two men or two women to be holding hands or even
sharing a kiss in public.  As I was to find out, any type of love was
accepted there. If you loved someone then that was all that matter even if
you were of the same sex or different races. That was so refreshing to
see. It was like you were in heaven but it wasn't heaven, it was just
another world where the people were of the same mind where love was
concerned. That also included love of their planet. Like I said there were
no cars or anything that used fuel. The made their power from the planet
itself. If they couldn't get their energy from the sun, wind or from
themselves then it wasn't needed. I mean at night you could go outside and
look up into the sky and see the stars."

       "Wasn't there security lights to block out the stars?" Renee asked
as every city she had been in was well lit.

       "There wasn't a need for them or for cops or military or even
governments. Like I said everyone was every accepting and they got
along. If you disagreed with someone then you talked it out coming to some
type of understanding." Sophie was telling her when Renee stopped her.

       "But what about food and jobs. Who decided who was suppose to do
what?"  Renee asked slightly confused.

       "You did, you did whatever you wanted to do. There were a lot of the
same things there as they are here so there was a need for actors,
cameramen, factory workers, farmers or whatever you wanted to do. If you
wanted something to eat then you went to the store and got it. If you
wanted to go out and eat then you went to a restaurant. Only you didn't
have to pay for anything as there wasn't any money.  Everyone did what they
were good at or enjoyed doing so that was how you made your way in the
world. You didn't have to be interviewed for a job, you just went in and
started. You would think that everything would be disorganized and everyone
would just sit back and let someone else do the work but it wasn't like
that. It was like everyone in this world had similar drives that made them
want to do something to help out. They all earned their keep. Everyone
looked out for everyone's kids. It was almost the perfect world and it made
me wonder why I was there as I didn't think I was that type of person. I
have always had this drive to get to the top and in this world there wasn't
a need for a person like that." Sophie said as she paused for a moment
before she started again.

       "So anyway I began to stop people on the street to ask them how I
could get back here. They all looked at me like I was crazy to want such a
thing." Sophie said.

       This made Renee remember all the times people looked at her the same
way when she told them that Sophie would come back to her. Renee had faced
the same problem she had just from the opposite point of view.

       "I went from one person to another trying to find out who was in
charge but I kept getting the same answer, there wasn't one, there wasn't a
need. But that didn't stop me from looking and looking but there was no one
who could help me. After a month of this I knew that I had to find
something to do to earn my keep. I couldn't keep taking and not giving
anything back. So I found a garden center to work at as I tried to find
someone to listen to me. I just couldn't find anyone to help me and I
tried, I ready did. I went to every part of the city and even made a couple
of trips out to the country trying to find someone to talk to me. I told
everyone I met there about my promise to you and how I had to find a way
back. I knew that you were waiting for me and that I wasn't doing my part
of the deal that I had made with you. It was so damn frustrating trying to
find the person that could help me. I ever started praying to God whom I
have never believed in but that didn't help either, no one was answering my
prayers." Sophie was saying as her eyes began to tear up. Renee pulled
Sophie to her hugging her and giving her little kisses.

       "I know that you were trying to get back. We were both working
against the god's wishes and that isn't a way to please them." Renee told
her which made Sophie smile.

       "Since I couldn't find anyone to help me and the gods wasn't
answering my prayers, I decided the best way to get back to you was to work
my ass off. I worked my job in garden center and when I got off from there
I went to a day care center and worked there helping out with all the
kids. And when they didn't need me there I went to the city park to cut the
grass and keep the flowers looking pretty."

       "It was at the park that I finally found someone who would listen to
me about my promise to you. She was an sweet old lady named Jessica. Since
the child care center had picked up another full time person and really
didn't need, I had been working at the park a good bit. Although the child
care center did say that I was always welcomed there, as I was good with
the kids, which kind of surprised even me as I have never thought of myself
as the motherly type. But I knew I really wasn't needed and I felt like
that the park did need me or rather I was just drawn to go there, I'm not
sure really which it was."

       "I had been working in the park for a couple of months when I first
spotted her.  She came in one day while I was raking up some leaves and she
sat down on a bench.  She hadn't been there but for a few seconds when the
birds and squirrels began to gather around her. She pulled out a bag,
throwing out some seeds and nuts to the animals and they began to feed. As
I worked my way around the park, I would notice that she would be watching
me. This went on for about a month before I decided to come over and see
why she was so interested in what I was doing."

       "I went over to the bench where she was and sat down. I didn't say
anything as I wanted to see if she would say something first but she seemed
to content to just sit there with me. She would look over at me every once
in a while and smile but she wouldn't say anything. I left after a while
and she gave me a nod of her head then went back to her birds and
squirrels. The next day that I was there so was she. I worked around the
park for a while then went back to the bench, sitting beside of her. Again
she didn't say anything and neither did I, I don't why I didn't want to say
something first it was just like I knew she had to be the first to
speak. Soon I found that I was spending every free moment at the part and
every time I was there she would already be there or would show up shortly
thereafter. I would work as she fed her animal friends, then we would sit
on the bench not talking but I felt a sort of kinship with her, like she
was a friend." Sophie told her as she seemed to have this soft smile when
she talked of Jessica.

       "Finally after I had spent a couple of hours trimming up the bushes
making them look nice and getting the old buds off the flowers. I went over
to the bench. That was when Jessica spoke her first words to me."

       "You got the park looking beautiful, thank you." Jessica told me.

       "I was almost shocked that she had finally decided to say anything
and the only thing I could think to say was, "Thank you." So that is what I
said."

       "You're welcome my sweet girl." She said to me, then she asked me to
tell her about myself.

       "I wasn't so sure about what to tell her but when she gave me a
reassuring smile and then she patted my hand with her old wrinkled hand. I
felt like she would listen to what I had to day so the words started to
flow out of me. I started to tell her about how I had saw you in your
office that fateful day. Then how I harassed your brother to the point that
he passed me off to you. I think that she enjoyed that part immensely as
she made me tell that part if my story several times over the next few
months." Sophie told her and that made Renee laugh as she thought about how
her brother hated Sophie at that time.

       "So I took my time as I went through our romance leaving out the
more imitate details of course." Sophie said.

       "Of course," Renee echoed smiling back at Sophie who was smiling
mischievously.

       "I let it all out and when I got to the end, I told her about my
promise to you.  How you had looked at me when you holding me so tightly. I
told her that I had to get back to you, I couldn't break my promise."
Sophie said.

       "What did she say?" Renee asked her as Renee had stopped talking and
seemed to be lost in her memory.

       "Huh... oh her response... She told me that not all promises were
meant to be kept." Sophie told her.

       "And you said..." Renee asked as Sophie seemed be lost in space
again.

       "Oh... I told her that this was one promise that had to be
kept. Then she ask me why this promise of all the promises that had ever
been made had to be kept. I had to think a moment as I wanted to word it
properly. I told her that I loved you so much and that no matter how
beautiful this place was, it was nothing to me without you. I had to have
you by me to fuss with, to argue with, to cry over when you piss me off to
feel alive. I then told her that you felt the same way about me, I just
knew that you did. It was just that we made each other's lives better. Plus
it was a promise that I had made and I don't make a promise that I don't
fulfill." Sophie said as squeezed Renee's hand.

       "What did she say then?" Renee asked.

       "She didn't say anything. She just sat there for a moment then she
went back to feeding her animals. She could be frustrating that way
sometimes. I stayed there for a few more minutes then I got up to leave. I
told her that it was nice meeting her and all but I had to get back home as
I had to get up early and go to work. She just nodded her head not
bothering to even turn to face me so I started to walk away. I had gone
about fifteen feet when I heard her voice." Sophie said as she paused for a
second.

       "Come back tomorrow and we'll talk more." She told me, she didn't
ask me, she just told me and the funny thing was, I said okay even though
you are the only person to even tell me to do something and I do it without
some type of discussion." Sophie said with a sort of laugh.

       "Most of the time you have a discussion about whatever I tell you to
do or you tell me yes then do it your own way." Renee countered with a
laugh.

       "True, but all the same I felt like I should come back so I
did. When I got to the park, I didn't see her but about the time I was
done, she showed up so I finished what I was doing then I went over to see
her. She was feeding her animal friends so I just sat beside of her and
watched." Sophie told her as she stopped again thinking about this strange
woman. Then she started again.

       ""Well, don't just sit there girl, help me feed the animals then you
can talk about your Renee some more. I enjoy hearing about you two." She
told me so I picked up some of the seeds and nuts that she had and started
to feed the animals with her. She took her time so I did too and it was
only when all the seeds and nuts were gone that she ask me to continue with
my story. I thought I had told her about everything that I could think of
but I only after a moment or two of thinking did I think of some more
things to say. So I talked for another couple of hours about some of the
funny things that you did that made me laugh. And how when I felt sad or
stressed, you would do something silly, which is completely out of
character for you, just to make me smile and feel better. It was things
like that you did that made me love you all the more. I talked for a couple
of hours before I ran out of things to say. Again she was quiet so I bade
her goodbye and started for home. Again she told me to come back the next
day after I had walked off a few steps."

       "She sounds like she was a sweet lady to be willing to listen to you
and you were sweet to fill her evenings with our adventures." Renee told
Sophie as she leaned in and gave Sophie a kiss.

       "What was that for?" Sophie asked her.

       "For being a friend to that old lady. I bet you were the highlight
of her day."  Renee said.

       "I wondered about that at the time but anyway I kept coming
back. For a month I talked about us and our love. And eventually I did go
into more about us making love.  Not what we did but the way we make
love. I told her that we got to the point that we knew just what the other
needed just by the way we reacted to each other's touch. It was like we
could read each other's minds. I thought that I would embarrass her but she
just seem to take it in stride. It was like nothing I had to say was a
surprise to her.  She just listened to me only saying something when I had
grown quiet. Then it was only to tell her more or she would bring up
something that I had said earlier that she wanted me to elaborate on. I was
still trying to find someone to help me but Jessica was the only one who
seemed to want to listen to me. I mean everyone else was nice but I could
see that they thought I was crazy to want to go back. So it got to the
point that I just talked to this old lady. She at least wanted to hear what
I had to say even if she couldn't help me get to where I wanted to go. So
every day I went to the park to work and talk to her. Even on days that
there wasn't anything to do there, I went anyway just so I could talk."
Sophie was saying when the phone rang.

       "Go ahead and get it, I need something to drink. You want
something?" Sophie asked and she got up, heading into the kitchen.

       "Yea get me a water." Renee said as she reached for her cell
phone. "Oh it's Ian, he is going to shit a brick when I tell him you're
back."

       "Don't tell him!" Sophie said as she rushed back onto the porch.

       "What?" Renee said as she almost dropped the phone.

       "You can't tell him I'm back." Renee said as the phone continued to
ring, then it stopped.

       "Why not?" Renee asked now confused.

       "I don't know, it's just a feeling that I have. It's like this is
just for us, we have been given a gift but it is one that we can't
share. Please don't ask me to explain it better because I can't, it's just
what I feel." Sophie said as she came up to Renee.

       "I won't tell anyone, I promise." Renee told her as she took
Sophie's hand in her then giving it a kiss as if to seal the promise. Then
the phone rang and Renee knew who it was before she looked at her phone.

       "Hello Ursula, I'm doing fine. You and Ian can stop worrying now."
Renee said into the phone as Sophie walked back into the kitchen leaving
her alone to talk to her sister- in-law. Renee so wanted to tell Ursula but
she had made a promise to Sophie and she would keep it.

       "Yes I do sound happy and it's because I'm happy. Just don't worry
and no you don't need to come over and keep me company." Renee then
listened to Ursula talk for a few minutes. Soon Sophie came back with their
water and a couple of cookies for them to snack on. Sophie sat down on
Renee's lap as Renee did her best to convince Ursula that she was fine and
that she would return to work on Monday. It took all her skills to convince
Ursula not to come over right then but she did tell her that she would call
before she went to bed that night.

       "Your sister-in-law can be very determined can't she." Sophie said
as Renee closed her phone.

       "Yes she can, but it is only because she and Ian love me so much. If
it wasn't for them I don't know what I would have done while you were
gone. They and the boys kept me going." Renee said as she shed a tear
thinking about all that they did do for her.

       "I think you should go see them tomorrow, just to show them that you
are okay."  Sophie suggested.

       "No I don't want to leave you alone here, you just got back." Renee
told her not wanting to ever leave her again.

       "Don't worry, I'll be here when you get back. Besides I need to tend
to my roses, whoever has been taking care of them has about killed them."
Sophie said seriously.

       "Hey I took great care of them for you!" Renee shot back then she
saw Sophie grinning from ear to ear.

       "I know, you did a great job. But you do need to go see them."
Sophie told her as she kissed her lightly on the cheek.

       "You're right as usual but I'll just stop in and show them that I'm
fine then I'll come right back." Renee told her.

       "No, you'll go and spend the same amount of time that you always do
then you can return back to me. I promise that I'll still be here." Sophie
said as she leaned over and gave Renee a kiss who took her in her arms
holding her tightly. As the kiss ended, Sophie laid her head on Renee's
shoulder.

       "Now go on with your story." Renee told her as she kissed Sophie on
the lips. She put her arm around Sophie pulling her in tight as she took
Sophie's left hand in her right hand giving it a squeezed before they
entwined their fingers. Sophie looked up at her then she looked up past her
as she began to think about what to say next.

       "Once I had said about everything I could think of about you and I,
I began to talk about this world that I had found myself in. I told her how
beautiful it was and how perfect it seemed. There was no crime or wars and
everyone seemed to be able to get along with everyone else. I told her that
while I loved it, I couldn't see why I would deserve to be here. I mean I
have been a fighter all my life and had done some things that I wasn't so
proud of, take the way I treated Ian for example. I mean I was a bitch to
him just to get my way just like I have been a bitch to many people just to
prove how tough I am. And in some ways I enjoyed being a bitch. I mean I
knew that Ian didn't deserve to be treated the way I treated him, but it
was also fun to see him squirm. I told her that I didn't deserve this
world, I should be in..." Sophie was saying and Renee knew what Sophie was
going to say but she had also seen the other side of Sophie, the one that
most people had never seen. So she wasn't surprised by what Jessica said to
Sophie.

       "You know what she said to me?" Sophie asked.

       "That you did deserve to be there just as much as everyone else. You
are a very loving person." Renee said.

       "Pretty close." Sophie said as she smiled up at Renee then snuggled
up against her. "She looked over at me and she had this radiant smile that
I hadn't noticed before then she told me, "Everyone goes to where they
should go when they should go there.  And the people here do argue and fuss
just like they did before, they had just learned that there comes a time to
slow down and listen to what the other person was saying.  They had learned
to listen and to try and understand that their way wasn't the only way to
look at things. I would say that somewhere along the way you had learned
that or someone taught you that listening wasn't such a bad thing to
do. She then said that there was much that I had to offer this world, so
that was why I ended up here."

       "I saw that part of you long ago. The first night I spent with you,
I knew there was something there that you were hiding from everyone else
but you decided to show it to me and I'm glad that you did." Renee told
her.

       "I'm happy that I did too. I think she was talking about you when
she said that someone taught me to listen first." Sophie told Renee.

       "I don't know about that." Rene said modestly.

       "I do and I thank you for that." Sophie said as she squeezed Renee's
fingers between her fingers.

       "Well go on with the story, I want to hear more about this special
lady that you met." Renee said hoping to change the subject away from her.

       "So she told me about how this was a place where everyone could find
their own way of fitting in. It didn't matter who you loved or what you
loved to do. You could find a way to be happy here. She said I would too
and that I would find someone to love here as much as I loved you." Sophie
said and this remark surprised Renee as up to this point she had liked the
old woman.

       "Now let me tell you, the bitch in me came out right then and
there." Sophie said as Renee saw Sophie's face turn red just from
remembering this incident and she could imagine what her face looked like
when she was talking to the old woman.

       "I told her that in no uncertain terms that you were the only one I
would ever love, no matter how long I was stuck in this fucking world,
which I didn't plan on being too much longer. Then I got up and stormed off
but I still heard her say that she would see me the next day. I told her
when hell freezes over."Sophie said and Renee could see Sophie saying just
that and meaning every word.

       "But you showed up the next did didn't you?" Renee asked.

       "Yea, I did. I swore that I wouldn't. I even went to the daycare to
see if they needed any help and they did so I stayed there until the
parents had picked up all the kids. Then I walked toward home but as I
passed the park I found that I had to know if she was there. So I sneaked
around behind the bench and there she was, feeding her stupid animals. I
wanted to turn and go home but I couldn't. I stood there for the longest
time then I decided that I was going to go over and tell the old lady off
and then leave. But when I got there, she sat there for a moment as I got
my anger boiling good then she turned her head toward me and just
smiled. All the anger I was feeling at her went away so I sat down and I
started to tell her why she was wrong. I told her how sweet and kind you
were, how you cared more about others than yourself. All these things that
I wasn't. I told her how I fell for you when I saw you talking to one of
your employees and listening so intently to her problems. I told her that
you were the one made for this world and not me." Sophie said and this made
Renee blush.

       "Enough about me, you're giving me a big head." Renee said laughing
a bit to hide her embarrassment.

       "I can't tell it without you, you were as much in this as I was. We
were there together," Sophie said.

       "I know, just as you were always with me here, I was with you
there. Even when we were apart our thoughts were only with each other."
Renee said as she gave Sophie a squeeze.

       "Yes we were and we'll always be together." Sophie said while she
sat up on Renee's lap. She then got up leaving Renee to wonder what she was
doing.

       "Let's go take a shower and head to bed." Sophie told Renee who was
so engrossed in Sophie's story that she didn't want it to end, before she
found out how Sophie was able to find her way back.

       "Oh okay..." Renee said as she got up and she wanted to ask Sophie
about the rest of the story when Sophie answered her questioning look.

       "Don't worry, I'm not done talking but I just need a break for a
moment and beside you are beginning to smell, just when was you're last
shower woman?" Sophie said.

       "Last night smarty pants, when was yours?" Renee countered as Sophie
walked into the house in front of her.

       "Let me put it this way, I have traveled many miles since my last
shower." Sophie said laughing.

       "So you're the one stinking up our home." Renee told her as she
caught up with her giving her a hug and a kiss.

       "Yep and proud of it." Sophie said laughing. "No I just need a break
a moment to think and besides it has been a while since we have bathed
together. I think we are long overdue for a shower, don't you?"

       "Yes I do babe, I do." Renee told her.

       They were kissing as they stepped into the shower. With them
clinging together, it took some maneuvering to get under the warm spray of
the shower. The water felt nice to Renee as she held onto Sophie's
body. They just seemed to fit back together as they kissed. They had long
ago found the way they both liked to be held in these situations and even
after being apart for over a year, they went naturally back to that
position. Renee let her hand caress Sophie's back as they kissed. Their
mouths would open as their tongues would meet inside of Sophie's mouth then
Renee's mouth. The kissing just kept on going as their lips would part only
to come back together.

       "Oh god this is nice." Sophie said as their lips parted for a moment
so that they could breath.

       "You said it babe." Renee panted as she pressed her lips back
against Sophie's lips as she wasn't anywhere near done kissing.

       The kissing was more from love than sparking any arousal, not that
either of them wasn't aroused, they were, but right now they just needed to
feel each other's body and feel their lips touching. So they kept on
kissing until their skin began to wrinkle and only then did they get the
soap to wash each other. Then it was with gentle hands and caresses as they
washed one another. They saved their hair for last and by then the water
was pretty much cold but they hardly noticed as their concentration was on
each other. When the shower was over, the blew dried their hair and then
put lotion on the other's body before walking hand in hand to the
bedroom. As Sophie put clean sheets on the bed, Renee went to get them some
wine to drink while they talked.  When she returned, she helped Sophie put
the pillow cases on. Renee picked up the pillow that Sophie had used and
that she had never changed the pillow case. She started to take it off then
she looked up at Sophie who had stopped what she was doing. Renee stared at
Sophie for a moment then at the pillow that was in her hands.  She looked
back at Sophie then she burst into tears. Her knees gave out and she
crumpled to the floor hugging the pillow to her tightly to her chest.

       "Baby, what is wrong?" Sophie screamed as she jumped across the bed
to get to Renee.

       Renee tried to answer but all she could do was sob as she just
clutched the pillow to her. She had a death grip on the pillow and she
could feel Sophie tugging on it but for some reason she just wouldn't let
go. She couldn't understand what she was doing, she just felt this need to
hold onto the pillow. She could feel Sophie hugging her and whispering into
her ear but she couldn't understand what Sophie was saying. She could just
sob and hold the pillow in a death grip. It was only when she had cried
until her eyes went dry that she began to ease her grip on the pillow but
she still held onto it.  She then looked over at Sophie who had the
combination confused and fearful look on her face and that made Renee start
to laugh which just added to the confusion on Sophie's face which made
Renee laugh that much harder. Soon she was laughing hysterically and trying
to stop which only made her laugh more until she started to cry again. It
was like a never ending cycle of crying and laughing. Sophie just held her
tightly kissing her cheek and wiping the tears from her eyes. It was only
when she had practically exhausted herself that she was able to get it back
under control and she able to get any words out.

       "I'm sorry, I don't know what happened to me there." Renee said
hoarsely

       "I'd say that it has something to do with that pillow that you are
clutching to your heart." Sophie said as she let her hand caress Renee's
face.

       "Oh god, here's it's your pillow." Renee said as she started to hand
it to Sophie but at the same time not really wanting to let go of it.

       "Why don't you hold onto it another minute while you tell me why my
pillow drew such a reaction from you." Sophie suggested as she pulled Renee
to her as Renee held the pillow to her chest.

       Renee settled down against Sophie as she smelled the pillow one last
time then she cleared her throat. "When I finally got to come home after
Ian and Ursula got me back on my feet and I came in here to sleep. As I lay
down I could almost feel you in the bed with me, then as I put my head near
your pillow, I got a whiff of your perfume on it. It made you real to me
again. It was like you were still here. So I pulled the pillow to me and I
inhaled deeply and you were alive again." Renee said as she clutched the
pillow even tighter without realizing it.

       "So after that I slept with your pillow held tightly against my
chest so that I could keep smelling you as I slept. Then as your scent
faded I took some of your perfume and put it back on your pillow. I also
never washed it so that if there was any part of you on the pillow case
then it would stay there. I know that sounds crazy but that is what I did."
Renee said.

       "It doesn't sound crazy, it sounds sweet to me." Sophie said as she
kissed Renee softly on the cheek.

       "Then as I was about to take the pillow case off and I saw you
standing there looking so fucking beautiful all those lonely nights came
rushing back to me. I realized just how lonely I really was without you. I
mean I got so fucking lonely and depressed without you and my life was so
fucking hard with everyone thinking I was crazy. I know that when I saw you
and I was holding the pillow I should have been happy to take that pillow
case off but it became you for that moment and if I took the pillow case
off then you would be gone again and I couldn't handle that." Renee said as
she started to cry again.

       Renee felt Sophie's hands on her face pulling it toward her and then
she felt those soft lips touching her lips. "I'll tell you what, let's just
put this pillow on the foot of the bed, leaving the case on it. When you
find that you don't need it anymore, then and only then we will change the
case together but that means that we will have to share your pillow. I hope
that you won't mind that too much." Sophie said smiling.

       "It'll be tough with that ugly mug of yours so close but I'll try."
Renee said smiling then she kissed Sophie again and it was only then that
she could let go of the pillow giving it to Sophie who got up and carried
the pillow to the foot of the bed. She placed it there carefully as she
smiled at Renee.

       They finished making the bed with Renee feeling foolish about her
outburst but when she looked over at Sophie and saw her radiant smile, she
knew that the outburst meant something to her. It showed Sophie just how
much that she missed her and how much that she loved her. When they bed was
made, Renee poured them both a glass of wine. She gave both glasses to
Sophie who was already sitting in the middle of the bed.  Renee climbed up
on the bed, sitting in front of Sophie, taking her glass of wine back.

       "To us my love." Renee said as she clinked their glass
together. Sophie repeated the toast before they both took a sip.

       "Now where was I?" Sophie asked as she looked at Renee.

       "You were telling Jessie that you couldn't find someone else to love
there as I was the only one you would ever love." Renee told her.

       "Ah... yes... so I was." Renee said as she slowly closed her eyes
and Renee could just see her thinking.

       "After listening to how I was describing you and how good a person
you were, Jessica looked at me with those penetrating eyes of hers and she
said, "You have most of those same traits, you know, and others that
brought you to this world. You have the ability to love without judgment
and there is kindness in your heart that you try to keep hidden but it
shows through no matter how much of a bitch you pretend to be."  Now I have
to admit that when she mentioned the word Bitch that a shiver when through
me and I thought of Ian and how I treated him, feeling bad all over
again. This made me think I truly was in the wrong world. Then she said
something else that got to me even more, she said, "He forgave you long ago
dear." Now this really shook me up."  Sophie was saying.

       Renee felt a chill going up her spine as Sophie told her about what
Jessica had said to her. It was like she knew that this old woman was more
than just an lonely old women who just had her animals to feed to pass the
time. She wanted to say something to Sophie about what she was thinking but
Sophie, after pausing for a moment, went on with her story.

       "So we talked long past dusk that night about our love and how I had
ended up in her world that I felt I didn't belong. She started to open my
eyes about myself and I begun to see things that I hadn't seen
before. Still I didn't think I was in the right world. Then she said that
it was time for her to go home and I got up to leave." Sophie said.

       ""Will you come back tomorrow to see me?" the old woman asked me
this time rather than telling me." Sophie told her. "Of course I will,
you're my friend, you listen to what I have to say even if you can't help
me get to where I have to go, you make me feel that I'm not crazy for
wanting to go back to that world that still has crime and wars. I told
her."

       ""Then we'll talk some more tomorrow." Jessica said as she turned
back to her animals as they had begun to gather again. She pulled out
another bag of seeds that I didn't see before and she began to scatter them
around. I went back to my place feeling better for some reason even though
I wasn't any closer to where I wanted to be."

       "So the next day I showed up after I got off from the garden center,
I didn't expect her to be there but she was. I started to go to her first
but then I decided to check on the flowers and bushes first. It was like it
was now my job, so I did a little clean up of the flowers making sure that
they were doing fine then I went over to the bench. She gave me my own bag
of seeds and nuts. We fed her squirrels and birds before we began to
talk. This time she told me all of the good things that this world had to
offer and why I would be so much better off here. I have to admit that she
was very convincing in her arguments. I mean I wasn't getting anywhere with
getting back to you and this world was beautiful. By the end of the night,
I could see myself staying there but then I saw you in my mind and I knew
that this wasn't my world. I told her so and she thought about that for a
minute then she handed me another bag of seeds and nuts. We talked little
as we scattered the seeds then I went on back to my place but not before
she asked me to come back and I readily agreed." Sophie was saying as she
took a sip of her wine.

       "You know sometimes I like this Jessica and other times I think I
hate her."  Renee said to Sophie as Sophie paused in her story.

       "Tell me about it. I was the one talking to her and I felt the same
way about the old bitch." She said with a laugh.

       "She was a character, that is for sure." Renee said as she refilled
both of their glasses with more of the chilled wine.

       "Yep that she was." Sophie said. "So for the next several months,
she would talk about all the virtues of the world that I found myself in,
she was trying her best to get me to forget all about my promise to
you. But at the end of each night, I would repeat my need to get back. I
had pretty much stopped looking elsewhere for someone to help me. I'm not
sure why I did this, it was just that I was drawn to this frustrating old
woman. I knew she couldn't help me but she was the only one who would
listen to me.  So I kept going back. Then as the year rolled around, I felt
like I had to come back before the anniversary or I would never come
back. I kept telling this woman of my need to come back and the fear I was
feeling that if I didn't go back soon I would never be able to come
back. She was patient with me and for some reason, she stopped trying to
convince me to stay. She would listen to me as I talked about you and she
seemed to understand my need but she could offer no help. The night of our
anniversary, I came to the park crying as I knew that my time was up and I
was stuck.  She listen as I cried and begged you to forgive me for breaking
my promise. Then she did something that she had never done, she took my
hand in her old wrinkled hand and she told me that I would be alright. That
I would grow to love this world and I knew that it was over. I had failed."
Sophie said as she began to cry.

       Renee took her wine glass from Sophie's trembling hand and she
pulled Sophie to her letting her cry as she remembered the loneliness and
sense of failure that she had felt that night. It took Sophie a few minutes
to get it back together and when she did, Renee kissed her softly.

       "So how did you convince Jessica to let you come back?" Renee asked
as she held Sophie to her breasts.

       "How did you know she was the one?" Sophie asked.

       "I had a funny feeling about her as soon as you mentioned her and
then when you said that Jessica said that he, meaning Ian, had forgiven
you, then I knew." Renee said.

       "Well I didn't know, didn't have a clue until the night she let me
go." Sophie said smiling.

       "So what happened?" Renee asked now very impatient to know what
happened next.

       "Well I did feel a little better after she had patted my hand but I
was still distraught about failing you. We parted that night and the next
night I was even more distraught and depressed about what I had failed to
do. She listened and tried to make me feel better about being stuck there
but it wasn't doing any good. I was just getting more and more depressed
every day knowing that I have broken the most sacred promise that I had
ever made. She tried her best to make me feel better but there was no way
for her to do that. I needed you in my life and that was now impossible. So
for the next few days it went that way until finally she asked me a
question." Sophie said.

       "And that was?" Renee asked.

       "She asked me, "Why should you be allowed to return when no one else
has ever gone back?" This made me think then I knew the answer to her
question, "Love." I told her and she just knotted her head." Sophie said.

       "Then she said, "Come with me my child." And I asked her where we
were going and she said, "I think you need some company tonight, and so do
I." So I got up with her and went to her place which was much like my own
place. She fixed us both a bite to eat and then she took me back to her
bedroom. I was about numb at this point so I just followed her. We both
undressed and I slipped into bed with her. She drew me to her holding me
tightly against her old body. I didn't resist as she stroked my hair and
she kissed me on the top of my head. I felt my body relax in her grasp and
then just before I fell off to sleep I heard her say, "Go back to your love
my sweet child but only to her." When I opened my eyes, I was laying here
with you watching you sleep.

       "So that is why Ian and Ursula can't know your back?" Renee asked.

       "I think so, this is just for us that I came back. My parents can't
know that I'm here; for them and the rest of the world I am dead." Sophie
said with a bit of sadness in her voice.

       "I'm sorry..." Renee said feeling bad knowing that while Sophie was
given her life back, it wasn't given back completely.

       "I'm not sorry. I do miss my parents so much but it was you I wanted
to come back to. I got what I asked for and for that I will be
thankful. But that means that you will have to keep the gift I was given."
Sophie told her.

       "Don't worry, I plan on being very selfish with you." Renee said
smiling.

       "Now will you do me a favor?" Sophie asked.

       "Anything you want babe, anything you want." Renee told her as she
took her right hand to caress Sophie's cheek.

       "I'm so tired right now, will you just hold me and tell me that you
love me."  Sophie stated.

       "Yes my love." Rene said softly as she eased Sophie down onto the
bed.

       Renee pulled the covers over them then she pulled Sophie in close as
they both laid their heads on Renee's pillow. "I love you babe." Renee said
as she kissed Sophie lightly on the lips. Renee saw Sophie smile sweetly
then Sophie closed her eyes and she was asleep. "Oh god do I love you."
Renee said and she heard Sophie reply in her sleep, "I love you..."

       Renee woke up much later than normal and when she did, she saw that
Sophie was still there sleeping soundly. She could see the differences in
the face that she was now looking at and the one she saw the day
before. All the stress that she had seen, but not seen, yesterday was
gone. Renee took her right hand and moved a strain of Sophie's hair from
her face. Renee was tempted to wake Sophie with a kiss but Sophie was
sleeping so soundly that she didn't have the will to do so. She looked over
at her lover and she began to think about the things that Sophie had to go
to get back to her.  She had thought that she had been through hell but as
she thought about the pressure that Sophie had felt as she tried to find
her way back, she realized that Sophie went through a much worse hell than
she had gone through. Yesterday she was more interested in just finding out
where Sophie had gone and what she did there, that she didn't catch all the
pain in Sophie voice. But now as she watched Sophie sleep, she remembered
the pain and hardship that came through. Renee felt her heart go out to
Sophie and she felt the love that she had for Sophie grow. She leaned over
giving Sophie a soft but quick kiss. Sophie stirred for a moment then she
settled back down.

        Renee slipped out of the bed going to the bathroom to pee and brush
her teeth.  She then went to the kitchen to make some coffee which she took
out on the porch.  She sat down on the top step and looked out over the
back yard. She saw that Sophie's roses were doing well but she had to admit
that they didn't look as good as they soon would with Sophie's touch. Renee
drank her cup of coffee then she went back to the bedroom to see that
Sophie was still sleeping. Sophie had twisted around and the covers had
been pulled down uncovering her breasts. Renee felt her body stirring as
she watched those pert breasts rising and falling with each breath. Again
Renee wanted to wake Sophie but she instead just watched her for awhile
then she got some clothes out, taking them to the bathroom.

       Once she was dressed, she came back into the bedroom, leaving Sophie
a note telling her that she was going to Ian's house for a while. She
placed the note on the pillow by Sophie's head then she gave Sophie another
kiss before leaving. Renee so wanted to tell Ian and Ursula about Sophie
coming back but she knew that she couldn't.  She would have to keep that
good news to herself. But she knew that Ian and Ursula would pick up her
being severely depressed one day and then on top of the world the next
day. She figured that she would just have to come up with something once
she got there.

       "So how you doing?" Ursula asked as she opened the door for Renee.

       "Pretty good." Renee said as she hugged Ursula then the boys came
running up to her.

       "So what you two been up to?" She said to them as she gave them both
hugs and kisses which they only took from her as they were getting to big
to be kissed at least as far as they were concerned.

       "We got a new basketball goal, come on out and play with us." The
Phillip said as he grabbed her hand pulling her toward the back of the
house.

       "I think my presents has been requested." Renee told Ursula as she
let herself be pulled away.

       "Take it easy on your aunt boys." Ursula warned them.

       "If they do that then I'll whip their butts and they can't have
that." Renee said egging on the boys, who replied that there was no way
that she could whip them.

       Ursula frowned at Renee but then she went back to the kitchen and
Renee felt a moments reprieve but she knew that Ursula wouldn't be put off
that easily.

       Renee started to shoot baskets with the boys. She had played while
she was in high school so her shooting, while rusty, wasn't too bad. So
that put her close to even ground with her fierce competitors. Soon Ursula
came out with a tray of iced tea and she sat and watched her boys and Renee
play. When one of the boys would get a little rough with Renee, Ursula
would get on them then Renee would be sure to bump him back just as
rough. Ursula would have to tell Renee not to egg them on. This went on for
a few times before Ursula gave up letting Renee fend for herself. Renee
played for as long as she could but she was slightly out of shape and thus
she eventually wore down and she had to take a break. By this time Ian had
come out to join his wife at the table she was sitting.

       "I think I need to start exercising." Renee said as she plopped down
in her chair, taking a long swig of ice tea.

       "You're doing fine, I wouldn't have lasted half as long as you did
with them."  Ursula told her. About this time, the boys had pulled their
father into the game leaving Renee and Ursula alone, which wasn't what
Renee wanted but she knew it was what Ian and Ursula wanted. She wouldn't
have been too surprised that they had it all planned out but then if they
had, the boys would have given it away.

       "Well they got more energy than I have." Renee laughed.

       "They got more energy than an electrical plant." Ursula said with a
laugh. Then Ursula suddenly changed the subject, "So how are you really
doing? You have been so down lately and we're worrying about you."

       Renee was waiting for this question but she still hadn't come up
with a answer to it. "I'm doing better now, you can stop worrying." Renee
said simply.

       "You sure... you sounded so down yesterday morning. I was worried
that you might do something to yourself but Ian said that you wouldn't."
Ursula said as she let her true feelings out and just what she had been
thinking.

       Renee smiled to herself as Ursula was getting closer to the truth
than she realized but that was in the past now with Sophie back. Renee
reached over pulling her hand on top of Ursula's hand giving it a
squeeze. "I'm fine now, I was feeling pretty bad but things change." Renee
told her.

       "What's changed?" Ursula pressed as she usually did when it came to
someone she cared deeply about.

       Renee thought for a moment as she tried to find a way around this
without just blurting out that Sophie had come back to her as she promised
that she wouldn't do that. But the longer she thought the more concern came
across Ursula's face. "I don't know how to explain it but I just feel
better. I think I have just decided that I have been down long enough and
it was time to get back to the living. I know that isn't a great
explanation but it is all I know to say." Renee said then she added to
herself, "Without really freaking you out with the truth."

       "You know if you ever need to talk then you got Ian and I here to
talk to. I know that you believe that Sophie will come back to you and we
haven't supported your thinking there and maybe that was a mistake on our
part. It's just that we didn't want you to get hurt worse in the end."
Ursula told her.

       "I know and it's cool. I know that my thinking makes me seem crazy
but I'm not..." Renee said now tired of trying to convince everyone that
she would come back and now that she has, she couldn't prove that she was
right.

       "We know you're not honey." Ursula said but not convincingly. Then
she added, "But no matter what you think, we are here for you. I want you
to know that we all love you dearly, we really do."

       "I know you do and I love you all too. But you can stop worrying
about me, I'm doing fine now." Renee said as she got up and she went over
to Ursula giving her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Ursula held her for a
moment before letting her go. Then she turned to Ian and her nephews and
said, "How about a little two on two, your dad and I against you two."

       The boys accepted the challenge and the game was on. Ian was
actually terrible at basketball as tennis was more of his game so that made
the two teams about even.  So they played for a couple of hours before
Ursula called them all in for lunch which Ian and Renee were grateful
for. Renee stayed for a hour or so after lunch was done then she made her
way home but not after getting hugs and kisses from everyone and Ian
telling her that they were there for her. Renee gave Ian a extra hug then
she took off to get back to her lover.

       Renee entered the house calling out to Sophie but she got no
response. Her heart started to pound but then she figured that Sophie was
still in bed so she went there. The bed was empty but had been made back
up. Renee walked around the house calling out to Sophie but still she got
no response then she knew where Sophie would be.  She rushed out to the
back porch scanning the flower garden for Sophie but she was nowhere in
sight. That was when the fear began to rise in her heart.

       "Sophie!" Renee called out with fear and desperation in her voice.

       "What? I'm right here you don't have to yell loud enough to wake the
dead."  Sophie said as she came around the corner of the house pulling the
water hose that was attached to the water tank that they had put in a
couple of years before to catch rain water to water the flowers.

       "Oh god you're here." Renee said as she ran out to where Sophie was
standing.  Just as she got to Sophie, she tried to stop when her feet went
out from under her in the wet grass. She slid into Sophie taking her
down. When Renee stopped sliding she was laying on the grass with Sophie
laying on top of her.

       "You know a simple "Hi darling." and a kiss would be the normal
greeting when one comes home to her lover." Sophie said in a very serious
voice as she looked down at Renee who was blushing from embarrassment.

       "Hi darling." Renee said giggling to hide her embarrassment.

       "Hi babe." Sophie said as she leaned down to give Renee a kiss then
she sat up on Renee's stomach.

       "Sorry about that." Renee said then she saw the spray nozzle that
Sophie had in her hand. "Oh no, you wouldn't dare." Renee said as she saw
the devious grin that was now on Sophie face.

       "Yes I would!" Sophie said as she squeezed the handle on the nozzle.

       Renee screamed as she closed her eyes. She felt the cold spray hit
her face and chest. She squealed as she tried to buck Sophie off of her but
Sophie was ready for that move and she rode Renee keeping herself on top
and firmly in control. Renee then began to reach out trying to find the
nozzle but Sophie kept it away from her all the while soaking Renee
good. Then Renee got lucky as she caught the nozzle in her right hand. The
struggle was on as Renee was able to turn the spray away from her and
toward Sophie who let out a scream as the cold water hit her chest full
force. Renee then had the advantage as she twisted her hip tossing Sophie
from her stomach. Renee grabbed the nozzle from Sophie as she was now
sitting up on her.

       "I believe some revenge is in order." Renee said as she started to
spray Sophie who was screaming and laughing.

       They fought over the nozzle getting the water all over both of
them. They were both soaked to the bone when Renee put the nozzle down. "I
think we're even now." She said to Sophie.

       "I don't think so!" Sophie said as she twisted and bucked her hips
throwing Renee off of her then she dived on top of Renee. She grabbed
Renee's hands pinning them above Renee's head. "Now you're under my
control." Sophie told her.

       "So you do but what do you have planned for me now that you got me
where you want me?" Renee asked as she looked first into Sophie's eyes then
her eyes were drawn to Sophie's tee shirt that was clinging to her
chest. Sophie wasn't wearing a bra so her hardening nipples were showing
through the thin material.

       "I believe that the last time we were together, we were heading home
to make love. I think that we have waited much too long to do that." Sophie
said softly as she let go of Renee's wrists then she put her hands down to
her sides. Sophie slowly pulled her wet tee shirt off revealing her small
pert breasts.

       "Oh my..." Renee said breathlessly, then she brought her arms down
from over her head, placing them upon those breasts that she loved so
dearly. She gave the breasts a gently squeeze then she ran her fingers
across the nipples causing Sophie to let out a soft moan.

       "God... I've dreamed about this for so fucking long..." Sophie said
as she let Renee caress her breasts and then her nipples.

       Sophie placed her hands onto Renee's breasts making Renee moan as
she felt those small hands cup her breasts. Renee still had her tee shirt
and bra on and obviously Sophie needed to touch her flesh as she let go of
Renee's breasts causing Renee to groan from the loss of contact. She felt
Sophie's hands at her waist pulling her tee shirt from her shorts. Renee
arched her back to help Sophie get her tee shirt out from her shorts then
she let Sophie pull the tee shirt up to her neck and arms. It was only then
that she let go of Sophie's breasts so that Sophie could get her tee shirt
off. Sophie leaned down giving Renee a kiss as she slipped her hands to
Renee's back unhooking her bra. Sophie sat back up pulling Renee's bra with
her. She threw the bra over her head leaving Renee topless.

       Renee put her hands down to Sophie's sweat shorts and she began to
pull them down as Sophie got up on her knees so that Renee could pull them
down past her hips.  Renee's eyes lit up as she saw Sophie full bush come
into view. She could smell Sophie's arousal as the shorts and panties got
past her hips and ass. Sophie then stood up so that she could get her
shorts and panties on off. Renee looked up at Sophie's naked body and she
lusted after it. She so wanted to make Sophie feel so good so she reached
up for Sophie's hips however Sophie stepped back frustrating Renee's
efforts.  Sophie moved down to Renee's feet then she dropped down to her
knees. She reached up to Renee's shorts unbuttoning then unzipping
them. Her hands went to Renee's sides so that she could get a grip on
Renee's shorts. Renee raiseded her hips up from the grass as Sophie pulled
her shorts and panties down. Renee was glad that she had taken the time
that morning as she showered to shave her around her pussy and asshole
making her completely clean. She knew that she would be making love to
Sophie soon and she wanted to be ready. Of course, she didn't know it would
be right now in the middle of the back yard. Sophie pulled her panties and
shorts on off then she placed her hands at Renee's ankles pushing them out
wide. Renee had wanted to make Sophie cum first but she wasn't going to
argue with Sophie right now. Whatever Sophie wanted, she could have.

       Renee felt Sophie's hands on her inner thighs as she looked at
Sophie getting down between her legs. Renee sucked in her breath as she
watched Sophie's head get closer to her pussy. Renee could feel the juices
gathering in her pussy as it waited for that special touch that Sophie was
so good at. Renee closed her eyes as she laid her head down on the
grass. She could feel Sophie's warm breath on her pussy then she felt
Sophie's lips kissing her clit which sent stars through her brain.

       "Oh godddd...." Renee cried out as she felt a small orgasm pass
through her body.  This was the first orgasm that she had since before
Sophie had died and it felt so fucking good. Sophie's tongue began to lick
Renee's outer lips causing Renee to lift her ass off the ground and driving
her pussy into Sophie's mouth.

       "Fuck babe, that feels so fucking good..." Renee screamed not caring
who might hear her.

       "I know baby and it's about to get even better, I'm going to drive
you crazy today." Sophie told her as she put her mouth back to Renee's
pussy.

       She slowly took her tongue and let it go from Renee's asshole up to
her clit and then back to her asshole where she stopped for a moment as she
let her tongue tease the outer rim of Renee's asshole. Renee had pulled her
knees up so that Sophie could lick her anywhere she wanted to. Renee moaned
and groaned as she felt Sophie's tongue move from her asshole to her clit
and back again. This time Sophie stayed at her asshole licking it first
then she pushed her tongue inside making Renee groan with pleasure. Renee
relaxed her asshole so that Sophie could get as much of her tongue inside
of her as possible. Renee was now using her fingers to caress Renee's clit
as she tongue fucked Renee's ass. It didn't take Renee long to get to the
edge of another orgasm as she moaned from the intense pleasure. Renee felt
her body tensing up then the pleasure burst forth from her clit and she
cried out.

       Renee disappeared into that special place that she was alone with
her true love.  She could feel Sophie still licking gently at her
pussy. When she came back to the real world, Sophie still had her mouth
buried into her pussy. Renee let out a groan as she tried to reach down and
pull Sophie up to her but Sophie just grabbed her hands in hers then
entwining their fingers together. Sophie placed her mouth over Renee's
pussy lips sucking on them as her tongue teased the slit and the entrance
to Renee's pussy.  Renee let out another groan as she gripped Sophie's
fingers in hers. Sophie now concentrated on Renee's pussy lips sucking and
chewing on them tenderly. Renee had her ass off the ground as she felt
Sophie suck and chew on her pussy so tenderly and lovingly. Sophie was
intent on making this last as she stayed away from Renee's clit just
working on the lips and then pushing her tongue in deep into Renee's
pussy. The tongue would go so deeply as she moved it around inside and then
she slowly worked her way up to Renee's clit. She first kissed it over and
over again sending shock waves throughout Renee's body. Then she sucked the
hard nub into her mouth. Renee cried out as Sophie sucked so fucking hard
then the tip of her tongue began to lick it. Renee gripped Sophie's hands
hard as she felt her clit get so fucking sensitive. Sophie just kept
sucking and teasing the sensitive clit until Renee couldn't handle it
anymore as she came hard pushing Sophie's head away from her clit. Renee
twisted her body as she felt the waves of the orgasm wash through her
body. Went she came around, Sophie was giving her pussy a last few licks
then she sat up.

       Sophie reached out to Renee, pulling her up as she said, "Come with
me."

       "Where are we going? I want to make love to you babe." Renee said as
she slowly sat up then she let Sophie help her up on her shaky legs.

       "You will soon baby, but come with me now." Sophie told her as she
started pulling Renee toward the house. They both had sweat and water on
their bodies that they tracked into the house.

       "What are you wanting to do?" Renee asked as she let Sophie drag her
through the house.

       "You'll see baby." Sophie said as she gave Renee a big grin which
Renee knew meant that Sophie had something else in mind for her. She
decided that she would go along but then it would be her turn to attack
that body of Sophie's.

       "Lay down on the bed." Sophie ordered her as Sophie let go of her
hand. Renee hesitated for a second then she saw that look of need in
Sophie's eyes and she went to the bed, pulling the covers down before
laying in the center of the bed. Sophie now satisfied that Renee was going
to go along with her, she went to the nightstand by the bed opening the top
drawer. Sophie pulled out the strap-on that had been laying in the drawer
unused for so long. Renee felt her pussy tingle as she knew that Sophie was
going to fuck her which she was so good at doing. Sophie stepped into the
harness pulling it up to her crotch. All the time she was doing this, she
was looking at Renee smiling down at her. Once she had it tightened down,
Sophie got a little lube, coating the cock well before closing the
bottle. She turned slowly toward Renee who was now grinning from ear to
ear. Sophie climbed onto the bed then she moved between Renee's legs which
Renee had spread out wide. Sophie took the cock into her hand guiding it
down toward Renee's pussy.

       Renee groaned as she felt the head of the cock press against her
pussy lips.  Sophie moved the head down a fraction before she began to move
her hips forward.  Renee felt her pussy lips opening as it allowed the head
to enter her. Then the head popped inside of her causing Renee to
moan. Sophie let go of the cock as she lowered her body down on top of
Renee. This caused the cock to slowly enter her pussy filling it up. Once
Sophie was on top of her, the cock was seated deep inside of Renee's pussy.

       "Damn that feels good babe." Renee said as she kissed Sophie and she
wrapped her legs around Sophie's waist.

       "That's want I wanted... you to feel good." Sophie said as she shed
a tear.

       "You make me feel good no matter what you do." Renee said as she
kissed the tear away then she put her hand to the back of Sophie's head
bringing her head down for a kiss. Sophie kept her hips still as they
kissed. Renee was feeling so damn good with her pussy filled and she was
kissing her lover whose only thought was to make her feel good. Renee
opened her lips enticing Sophie's tongue into her mouth. She could taste
her own pussy juices on Sophie's lips and tongue. She sucked on that tongue
as her tongue went to meet it. Their tongues caressed each other in Renee's
mouth. Renee heard Sophie moan as she caressed her back with her
fingers. They lay there not moving as their lips and tongues kissed within
one or the other's mouth. The kissing went on for a extended time as they
needed this intimate contact then Sophie began to move her hips around,
causing the cock within her pussy to move. Renee let out a grunt, as she
placed her hands to Sophie's ass cheeks giving them a strong squeeze. They
continued to kiss as Sophie brought her hips up pulling the cock out a few
inches then she slowly pushed it back in. Renee let out an groan as she
felt her pussy lips being pulled out then pushed back inward. Sophie kept
her hips in motion as she lifted them up then pushed them back down. Renee
felt her pussy being filled then emptied only to be filled again. It had
been much too long since she had last been fucked and she needed this more
than she realized. She used her heels to urge Sophie on as she pressed them
into Sophie's ass cheeks on each down stroke.

       "Oh fuck me babe!" Renee moaned out to Sophie then she kissed her
hard.

       Sophie began to fuck Renee harder as she worked her hips up and
down. Renee pulled on Sophie's ass cheeks then she put her hands to
Sophie's back gripping her shoulders as the cock went in and out of her
pussy. Renee groaned at each down stroke.  Sophie began to pant as she
worked harder to please her lover and this made kissing almost impossible
but they both still tired as their lips would come together for a second
then part for them both to breath. Sophie's hips went higher and higher as
she tried to get deeper inside of Renee's pussy and she did. Renee could
almost feel the cock head hit her womb as it bottomed out.

       "Fuck me hard bitch, I'm about to cum." Renee cried out.

       "I'm going o fuck your pussy raw you fucking slut!" Sophie cried
into Renee's ear making Renee moan out.

       "Yea baby!" Renee cried out as she bucked back against Sophie's
hips. Her pussy was sloppy wet and she could hear the fucking sounds that
they were making. Then Sophie began to shift her hips getting to all parts
of Renee's pussy and that was what sent her over the edge and she came
hard. Renee blanked out for a moment as the waved of her intense orgasm
washed over her.

       As Renee came back around, she felt Sophie's lips on her lips as she
kissed her and she felt Sophie's hips still moving as Sophie was fucking
her slowly with her hard cock.

       "Oh baby, I've had enough, it's your turn." Renee told her as she
return the kisses.

       "I told you that I was going to fuck you silly slut and I plan on
doing just that."  Sophie said and then she added, "So wrap those long legs
around me you fucking whore and let me drill that pussy of yours like I
want!"

       The dirty words got to Renee as they never failed to turn her on
when she was being fucked. "If you're going to fuck me, then fuck me bitch,
don't pussy foot around!"  Renee demanded as she did indeed wrap her legs
around Sophie waist. She began to push her hips upwards on each down stroke
that Sophie's made.

       "Oh yes ma'am," Sophie said "I going to wear that pussy out because
I own your pussy today."

       Sophie began to fuck Renee hard then. Soon the water from the hose
that was on their body when they got to the bedroom was replaced with
sweat. They were both working hard as Sophie worked her hips as she pulled
and pushed her hips up and down.  Renee cried and moaned as she urged
Sophie to go faster and harder. The sound of their bodies slapping together
echoed around the room as they fucked. They bodied worked in perfect
unison, Renee's fingers were scratching at Sophie back as she drug her
fingernails across and down Sophie's back. Renee could feel her pussy lips
getting sore as Sophie fucked her hard all the while calling her dirty
names making Renee call Sophie anything she could think of as she felt her
clit getting sensitive as she got close to an orgasm. It took a while to
come since she had already cum several times before but when it did hit, it
hit her hard. Renee cried out as she felt her pussy push out her girlcum
soaking Sophie and the sheets.

       Then everything went back as she lost control of her body and she
disappeared within her orgasm. She was floating above the bed with Sophie
still fucking her until Sophie gave out collapsing on top of her. Renee was
so exhausted from all the orgasms that she fell asleep with Sophie falling
asleep on top of her and the cock buried deep within her pussy. When she
did wake, Sophie was still completely out of it. Renee kissed Sophie on the
head causing Sophie to stir a moment. Renee slowly turned Sophie onto her
back as she went over on top of her. Renee then pulled her hips up causing
the cock to slip from her now sore pussy. Renee got on off of Sophie and
she looked down at the cock that stuck up from Sophie's crotch. It looked
so obscene with her girlcum coating it. Renee gently unhooked the harness,
then pulling it from Sophie's body. Renee got up going to the bathroom to
wash off the cock putting it back in the drawer. With her pussy as sore as
it was, she wasn't going to let Sophie fuck her of a few days.

       She went to the dresser getting the scarves out that she had put
away while Sophie was gone. She couldn't bare to look at them as they would
remind her of the first time that she and Sophie had made love and Sophie
had tied her up so that she could make love to her. She went back to the
bed gently moving Sophie to the center of the bed. She slowly took Sophie's
right hand bringing in up to the corner of the bed.  Renee worked slowly
careful not to wake Sophie as she tied the wrist to the bed. She went down
to Sophie's feet securing them to the bed and finally she tied Sophie's
left wrist to the bed so that she had Sophie secured. Sophie began to
struggle in her sleep so Renee laid down beside of her calming Sophie down
with her kisses. It took a moment before Sophie's eyes popped over and she
jerked on the ties.

       "You're not going anywhere babe, you're mine now." Renee told her as
she kissed her softly making Sophie relax as she knew that she was safe.

       When the kiss ended, Sophie smiled up at Renee, "I don't want to go
anywhere, I'm yours to do as you please."

       "Oh I plan on it babe." Renee said as she kissed her tenderly and
she moved her right hand to Sophie's left breast cupping it.

       "Mmmm..." Sophie said as Renee squeezed her breast then she moved
her fingers to Sophie's left nipple giving it a pinch before she let her
fingers glide across it. She flicked the tip with her index finger making
Sophie moan into the kiss. Renee moved her fingers to the right breast. She
pinched the nipple pulling up on it causing Sophie to let out a groan. She
nipple was hard as a rock so Renee had to pinch it again then she rolled it
between her fingers. This caused Sophie to groan louder but she held still
not trying to make Renee stop so Renee went back to the right nipple giving
it a pinch and she twisted it between her fingers as she pulled up on
it. Sophie let out a louder groan as she arched her back. Renee released
the nipple as she ended the passionate kiss that she was giving to
Sophie. Renee moved her mouth down to Sophie's chin giving it a kiss then
she moved on down kissing her way down Sophie's neck to her adam's
apple. She went on down until her mouth was between Sophie's breasts. She
kissed Sophie there then she moved her mouth to the left going up the swell
of Sophie's breast until she got to the hard little nipple. Renee kissed it
before taking it into her mouth. She sucked on it gently at first then she
sucked harder. While her mouth was bathing Sophie's left nipple, her right
hand was caressing and teasing the right one. Sophie was moaning softly as
she twisted around in the bed. She was pulling on the scarves but not
trying to get away loose but because she was feeling too good to lay
still. Renee nibbled on the left nipple for a moment then she moved her
mouth to the right breast. Her right hand then slipped down Sophie's
body. As she kissed the right nipple, Renee placed her hand over Sophie's
hot wet pussy. She just let it lay there until Sophie couldn't stand it any
longer as she needed to be stroked.

       "Rub my pussy baby, I need to cum so fucking bad." Sophie demanded
of Renee who then pressed her fingers down against Sophie's pussy lips. She
could feel the juices leaking out of Sophie's pussy. She let her fingers
lightly rub against the lips leaving the hardening clit alone for the time
being.

       "There you go baby, bite my nipples babe." Sophie demanded as she
started to twist around on the bed at least as much as the scarves holding
her arms and legs would allow.

       Renee began to gently bite Sophie's nipples as she let her middle
finger dip between Sophie's pussy lips. That brought a louder moan from
Sophie as she raised her hips upwards trying to get more of Renee's finger
inside of her. Renee slowly began to fuck Sophie's pussy as she nibbled on
the left then right nipple just going from one to the other
nipple. Sophie's pussy was leaking juices big time now as she was super
aroused. She twisted and turned in the bed as Renee fucked her pussy with
her middle finger. Then Sophie began to groan out her need to cum so Renee
pulled her finger out so that she could use it and her other fingers
against Sophie hard nub. It was sticking out from its hood and Renee
started to rub against it.

       "There you go baby, right there!" Sophie cried out as she pushed her
hips up off the bed. Renee pressed her fingers down hard against Sophie
long hard clit getting it super sensitive. Then she began to roll the bud
between her index finger and thumb.

       "Oh fuck babyyyy..." Sophie cried out as she came soaking Renee's
fingers with her girlcum. Renee continued to rub the clit so as to
intensify Sophie orgasm however she eased off before Sophie's clit got too
sensitive as she wasn't done with that pleasure nub yet.

       As Renee let Sophie's breathing slow down, she brought her fingers
up to her mouth so that she could lick the juices off of them. Sophie
tasted just as good as she remembered and now that she had a taste, she
needed more. She slipped down in the bed settling between Sophie's legs as
she inhaled deeply getting all of Sophie's aroma into her lungs. She then
put her face to Sophie's rubbing it against the full bush that Sophie
had. She smeared Sophie's juices all over her face before she began to lick
at those lips. She quickly got a hair or two into her mouth, she picked
them out and went back to licking away. The hair just added to the luster
of Sophie's pussy and when Renee got a hair into her mouth, it only meant
that she was licking Sophie's pussy well.  And from the way that Sophie was
now moaning, Renee was working it well. She let her tongue go between the
lips so that get could get in deeper and make Sophie squirm some more. She
was getting Sophie to lift her ass off the bed to get her to lick deeper
and harder. Renee pushed her tongue in as deep as she could so that she
could get Sophie more excited. She used her thumb to lightly rub the clit
causing Sophie to groan aloud. Renee then worked her way up to that hard
clit as she eased two fingers into Sophie's tight pussy. She let her tongue
take over from her thumb. She kissed that hard clit then she sucked it into
her mouth. Sophie screamed out her pleasure as she neared another
orgasm. Renee licked and sucked on the clit as she fingers move in and out
of that small tight pussy of Sophie's. Renee teased the end of the clit
with her tongue as she sucked on it then she used her lips to put pressure
on the clit getting Sophie that much closer to another orgasm. Renee let
the clit go using her tongue against it hard and fast making Sophie scream
as she arched her back as the orgasm rushed through her body.

       Renee went down to Sophie's feet untying them then she pushed them
up to Sophie's chest as Sophie recovered from her second orgasm in a short
time period.  Renee saw that cute little puckered her asshole winking back
at her. She moved back down and she kissed it as Sophie let out a low
moan. Renee kissed it another a time or two then she let the tip of her
tongue go around the rim. Sophie wiggled her ass around as she moaned and
groaned. Renee placed the tip of her tongue at the center and when Sophie
relaxed, Renee pressed her tongue inside. She pushed it in as far as she
could then brought it all the way out before she pushed it back inside of
her. She began to fuck that tiny hole making Sophie groan out her
pleasure. Renee made love to that little hole getting Sophie to leak juices
from her pussy down to where Renee was licking and fucking Sophie with her
tongue. Renee placed two of her fingers of her right hand back to Sophie's
pussy and she slipped them inside of it. Renee pushed them in deep the
pulled them out as she fucked Sophie's pussy with her fingers and her
asshole with her tongue. Sophie moaned deeply again as she twisted her
upper body around on the bed.  It didn't take her long to reach her third
orgasm and then was about all she could take as her let her legs fall back
to the bed. She moaned and groan through her orgasm as Renee licked up her
girlcum that was flowing from her pussy.

       "Untie my hands baby, I need to hold you." Sophie told her as she
used her legs to try and pull Renee up in the bed.

       "I don't know babe, I kind of like you tied up." Renee told Sophie
as she looked up from her pussy.

       "Babyyyy..." Sophie said as she drew the word out then she gave
Renee a pout that Renee couldn't resist.

       Renee let Sophie pout for a moment then she smiled as she moved up
on top of her.  She kissed her tenderly as her hand went up to Sophie's
right wrist untying the scarf. Then her hands went to the left wrist,
untying it as Sophie brought her hands down she turned Renee over onto her
back so that she could be the one on top.

       "Baby, I love you so much." Sophie told her as she looked down into
Renee's eyes.

       Renee saw tears forming in those eyes then the spilled forth landing
on Renee's cheeks. "I love you too babe, with all my heart." Renee told her
as she used her fingers to wipe the tears from Sophie's eyes.

       "I know you do, that's why I had to come back, it's just that you
make me so happy." Sophie said as the tears continued to fall.

       "Then why are you crying babe." Renee asked, kissing Sophie's tear
streaked cheeks.

       "Because I'm so happy." Sophie said as if that explained all the
tears and for Renee it did.

       "Why are you crying?" Sophie asked her.

       "Because I'm happy," Renee said and then she added, "And because you
are crying."

       That made Sophie smile and the tears began to ease off. She laid her
head down on Renee's chest. "You do make me happy, you know." Renee said
then she kissed Sophie softly on the forehead.

       "I know you do." Sophie said kissing Renee's chest before laying her
head back down. They lay there for a few minutes resting then Sophie
propped herself up on her elbows with her chin resting between Renee's
breasts. She then asked her how the visit to Ian's and Sophie's went. Renee
told her about it and how she did a song and dance around why she was so
happy without telling them that she was back. Sophie smiled as Renee went
through the whole story. She seemed to enjoy how Renee had to twist and
turn her way through the visit so Renee went into as much detail as she
could so that she could add to Sophie enjoyment at her own expense.

       "You know what I want you to do now?" Sophie asked her.

       "No what?" Renee asked as a few very fun things went through her
head.

       "Ahhh..." Sophie was saying as she got up off of Renee then she
walked to the bedroom door swaying her ass as she went. She turned and
stood seductively at the door. She hesitated for a second as she sucked in
her breath then she said, "I want for you to... get off your fat ass and
mow the lawn."

       "You bitch," Renee screamed as she pulled the pillow from under her
head and she threw it at Sophie who shrieked before running away. "I'm
going to get you!" Renee said as she got up off the bed. She wanted to be
pissed at Sophie for ruining her daydream but it was so good to have Sophie
back and ordering her around, making her work out in the yard that she
couldn't do anything but laugh. Still she was hollering obscenities at
Sophie as she raced to the kitchen where she found Sophie standing there
with her work clothes, floppy hat, and work gloves.

       "You ready to sweat that fat ass off." Sophie asked as she put her
hand on her cocked hip.

       "You'll think fat ass, when I done with you!" Renee yelled as she
pulled Sophie to her.

       "So you think you're woman enough to do anything to me?" Sophie
asked without any fear in her eyes.

       "Yes I am but I'd rather just kiss you into submission." Renee said
as she put her right hand to the back of Sophie's head kissing her
passionately.

       "I think that'll work." Sophie said breathlessly as the kiss ended.

       "It'll do in a rush but there's more to come." Renee said as she
kissed her again just as passionately.

       "Oh fuck, forget the yard work." Sophie said in a half swoon.

       "Now get your fat ass out there and work." Renee said with a smile
as she grabbed her things and went out on the porch to get dressed in her
wet clothes.

       "Oh god you're good." Sophie said breathlessly then she added, "But
this isn't over yet little girlie."

       "I hope not." Renee said as Sophie came through the door. She gave
Sophie a kiss on the cheek and a wink then she headed for the storage barn
to get the riding mower out to start mowing.

       For Renee, it seemed like Sophie had never left as they got back to
their normal Saturday routine, with her on the riding mower and Sophie
using the push mower to get close up under the bushes and around the tress
that Renee couldn't get to. A time or two as she mowed the back yard, Renee
found that she was watching Sophie more than where she was going. This
caused her to almost run straight into a tree once and after that she tried
to keep her eyes on where she was driving. Sophie would kill her if she
accidently ran over some of her flowers. As they worked their way around to
the front yard, Renee began to worry that someone would recognize Sophie
and she would be taken from her. As Renee turned the corner, she was
relieved to see that there wasn't anyone around. The lot was big so the
houses next door was a good distant away. But still close enough for those
who knew Sophie to recognize her. Sophie seemed unconcerned, however she
was dressed as she always dressed when she worked outside with her big pink
floppy hat that shaded her face from the sun. Renee did her best to watch
where she was mowing and at the nearby houses. They were most of the way
done with the front yard when Renee, who had begun to relax saw Autumn from
down the street pushing a stroller around as her baby bounced in the
seat. She had been pregnant when Sophie had died and she and Sophie had
talked often as they both loved flowers. Renee knew the game was up as
there was no way that she wouldn't recognize Sophie. Renee wanted to get
Sophie indoors but there was no time. Autumn had slipped up on her when she
had stopped paying attention. As she came around the circle that was in
front of the house, she waved at Renee who could only wave back. She then
waved at Sophie who also waved back but while Renee knew that while Sophie
recognized Autumn, Autumn didn't seem to recognize Sophie in the
least. Renee was left wondering just what had just happened. Maybe the
Autumn's mind would not allow her to believe that Sophie could be alive or
maybe she didn't have as good a look as Renee thought she had. She checked
the direction of the sun and it wasn't in the Autumn's eyes. It was a
mystery to Renee but at least they had lived to fight another day.

       Later that night as they laid in bed after they had spent a couple
of hours making love, Renee held Sophie close to her then she had to ask
what had been on her mind all afternoon, "Why didn't Autumn recognize you?"

       "I don't know, I saw her and then I realized that I shouldn't have
come to the front of the house. I should have let you do it but then a calm
came over me and I knew she wouldn't recognized me." Sophie said.

       "How could she not recognize you. I mean you look exactly like you
did on the day you died. I mean I can't see a bit of difference in you."
Renee said as she placed her fingers to Sophie's face as if to reassure
herself that she did look the same and she did.

       "I know I am the same to you because you see me as I am but maybe
everyone else see me differently, similar maybe but not the same. This is
the price that I must pay to return here. But it is a price I'm willing to
pay." Sophie said.

       "I guess but it doesn't make sense to me, everyone should see me as
I see you."  Renee said still confused.

       "Baby, you have never seen me as everyone else sees me. You are the
only one to ever have see me as me. Everyone else has seen what I have
chosen to show them. So it shouldn't be a surprise that only you can see me
now as me." Sophie told her.

       "That means that you can leave this house and not be a prisoner
here." Renee said as she voiced one of her fears that she had begun to
harbor as she didn't want Sophie to be forced just have to stay here.

       "I'm perfectly content to remain here for the rest of our lives
together. I have been to a place much better than here yet I wanted to
return to this world, return to you." Sophie told her as she kissed Renee.

       "What about Ian and Ursula, you know I can't keep them from coming
over here forever?" Renee asked.

       "One day soon we will invite them over but for the moment, let it be
just us."  Sophie said softly.

       "That's fine with me." Renee said as she kissed Sophie
tenderly. Sophie then pushed Renee onto her back so that she could lay her
head on her chest. They lay there in silence as they just used their
fingers to caress each other with loving touches. Then the day's activities
got to them and they fell asleep.

       The next day, Renee answered her emails that she had let go the
previous week as she was so depressed that even on the days she had gone to
work, she didn't have the energy to do much. So as Sophie piddled with her
flowers, Renee brought her laptop out on the porch so that she could work
and watch Sophie as she sang and hummed as she went from plant to plant.
Renee felt so happy that she had a hard time concentrating on her work. She
had thought about quitting work entirely so that she could spend her time
with Sophie but Sophie had nixed that idea that morning as they talked
during breakfast. She figured that Renee needed to work and Ian still
needed her there. Besides Sophie said that she could use the time away from
Renee. Upon which Renee stuck her tongue out at her which made them both
laugh. But what Sophie said was true. Renee did enjoy her work and they
could use some money coming in. It would make things seem more like normal
and they needed that for at least a while until they could figure out just
what their new life would be like. As they knew now, their life together
would go on but it would be different. It was just a matter of figuring out
just how it would be different and how they had to adapt to that change.

       "You seem to be back to normal." Ian said as their Monday morning
meeting with all the supervisors and department heads ended and they were
alone in the conference room.

       "If being half crazy is being normal, then I guess I am." Renee told
him as she gathered her papers together. She so wanted to tell Ian about
Sophie but she couldn't.

       "I've never thought that you were crazy Renee. Please believe me..."
He said as she fumbled for his words. "I just want you to be happy again. I
know the boys could see the difference in you Saturday. They said that
their Aunt Renee was back."

       "I am back, I'm back for good now." Renee said and when she looked
up from her papers, she saw that Ian was crying.

       She dropped her papers and went to him, she pulled her brother to
her and she let him cry. He sobbed in her arms for a couple of minutes
before he straightened up as he pulled back from her. He cleared his voice
before speaking, "You may think that I didn't like Sophie but I did. I
respected her for who she was and what she had done. I also loved her
because she loved you so much. I can see why you would want her back.  If
it had been me I wouldn't have ever wanted to give her up. When I think of
Sophie, I think of Ursula, I don't think I could stand to lose her. She
means too much to me."

       "I'm glad you told me that, I knew that you two had a mutual
respect, you were both just too stubborn to admit it. You're both alike in
that way." Renee told him. "Now let's go back to work before they decide
that they don't need either one of us."

	Ian thought for a moment then Renee saw a smile come to his face,
"You know they can do just fine without either of us."

       Renee laughed as she said, "I know, that's why I decided I had to
get off my fat ass and get back to work."

       "I'm glad you're back." Ian repeated as he escorted her out the
door.

       "So am I, more than you know, more than you know." Renee told him as
she veered off to enter her office.

       The first thing that she did was to have a meeting with all of her
employees.  Before Sophie had died, she felt like she had to have a hand in
everything that went on within her department. But while she was the
hospital, they did just fine without her and then the last couple of months
when she began to get so depressed that she lost interest in her work, her
department went right on without her as they did the job that she hired
them for. So as she stood there looking over her group, she realized that
maybe it was time to loosen her grip. She would still be in charge but she
wouldn't be looking over all their shoulders all the time. She had probably
stood there for five minutes before she realized that they were staring at
her with confused looks on their faces. She thought that they probably did
think she was crazy, so she smiled and started her speech, not the one she
had prepared in her mind but the one that came to her as she spoke. It was
definitely going to be different from here on out. Nothing would ever be
the same for her not that it should. Life was about changes and she had
just decided that she was going to change with it. And she knew that if she
needed any help changing, Sophie would be more than happy to help her
out. In fact, it would give her the thrill of a lifetime to help her out.

       By the time that she was done with her speech, her employee's seemed
thrilled that they would be allowed to continue to doing as they had been
doing while she was out of commission. Renee also saw some skeptics among
her group but she would have them convinced before too long. She then sent
them back to work as she picked up her phone to call Sophie about her day
so far. This time when Sophie didn't answer right away she wasn't too
worried as she knew where Sophie would be. So she left a message on the
answering machine. It wasn't more than five minutes that her cell phone
rang and she saw that it was the home phone. So she told Sophie all about
her talk with Ian and then she speech to her group. Sophie seemed pleased
with her that things had gone so well for her and then she warned her not
to be late for dinner or there would be hell to pay. Renee laughed at that
remark but she also made sure that she got home on time, in fact, she
arrived a few minutes early.

       "Hey babe your breadwinner is home, I do hope that you got my dinner
ready, like a good housewife should. I'm so hungry I could eat the south
end of a north bound cow." Renee called out as she came in the front door
and her nose picked up a whiff of something delicious smelling coming from
the kitchen.

       "First off I didn't come back here to be treated like some barefoot
pregnant backwards woman so if you want to eat what I have fixed and plan
on sleeping in the same bed as me tonight, I would highly recommend that
you change your greeting when you enter this house." Sophie said as she
stood with her hands on her hips in the middle of the kitchen.

       Renee tried not to smile but she had gotten the response that she
had expected and wanted so the smile came to her face despite her best
efforts. "How about? Hi honey I'm home, is there anything I can do for
you?" Renee said.

       "That's a little better, I might just let you eat but you still
haven't gotten back into the bedroom yet." Sophie said as she kept her
hands on her hips and she thrust her lower lip out.

       Renee had to think a moment as she thought that was a pretty good
greeting and she wasn't so sure that she could come up with something
better. The moment drug on as Sophie was becoming impatient with her. Renee
was starting to get desperate as she definitely wanted back into Sophie's
bed. Renee then saw Sophie purse her lips and it hit her like a ton of
bricks. Renee dropped her computer bag onto the table as she rushed to
Sophie gathering her in her arms, "I missed you so much today babe, I could
hardly keep my mind on my work as you kept entering it blocking my ability
to think of anything but you." She said as she brought her head forward
kissing Sophie passionately as her arms held her tightly.

       "Took you long enough to figure that one out." Sophie told her as
she did her best to gather her breath back after such a passionate kiss.

       "I know, I'm a little slow today but I did come through in the end."
Renee said smiling, "So does that mean I'm allowed back into the bedroom?"

       "I don't know..." Sophie said as she hesitated for a second as if
she was still trying to decide.

       Renee decided she wasn't going to let Sophie stretch this out for
much longer so she placed her hand to the back of Sophie's head bringing
her in for another long passionate kiss. This time she let her other hand
caress Sophie's back and then she moved it to Sophie's ass cupping her left
cheek in her hand giving it a squeeze. She heard Sophie let out a little
moan as they kissed. Renee opened her lips so that she could ease her
tongue into Sophie's mouth, which Sophie began to suck on as her tongue met
Renee's tongue. Sophie's hands began to caress Renee's back pulling and
tugging on Renee's blouse.

       "How about now?" Renee asked once the long kiss ended.

       "How about what?" Sophie asked a bit confused by Renee's
question. Then her mind seemed to clear as she responded with, "Another
kiss like that and dinner will burn as I drag you to the bedroom to make
love to you."

       "That sounds fine with me." Renee said with a wink.

       "Oh no, I've worked all afternoon cooking this meal to celebrate
your first homecoming and we're going to sit down and enjoy it... Then
we're going to fuck our brains out." Sophie said in her most sexy French
accented voice that made Renee's knees go weak.

       "Now set the table while I try and figure out what the hell I was
doing before your rude obnoxious greeting." Sophie said as she pushed Renee
away then she pulled her back for a kiss. "That should hold you until
dinner is done." She added with a wink.

       "Oh god you are a case." Renee said laughing. She then started to
get the dishes out as she asked about Sophie's day. Sophie talked about all
that she did as she finished dinner then they talked about Renee's day as
they ate dinner.

       "Have I ever told you just how much I love you babe?" Renee asked as
they lay in bed later that evening.

       "I believe that you might have a few times but you could always tell
me again, I wouldn't mind it too much." Sophie said with a soft sweet
smile.

       "I love you babe." Rene told her as she let her fingers caress
Sophie's face, pushing the hair from her eyes so that she could look deeply
into those deep beautiful eyes of Sophie's.

       "I love you too baby." Sophie responded.

       Renee leaned in close as she lay on her side facing Sophie. She
kissed her lightly just letting her lips touch Sophie's then she pulled
back making Sophie pout a little.  Renee hesitated for a second before
leaning in for a second kiss, this time she let her lips linger as she used
just her lips to kiss Sophie. She had her hand on Sophie's side but now she
brought it around so that she could cup Sophie left breast. Sophie let out
a soft moan as she brought her hand in to cup Renee's right breast. They
teased each other's breasts as their kissing got more intense. Sophie let
her lips part and she slowly eased her tongue into Renee's mouth. Renee met
it with her own tongue so they let their tongues kiss as their lips
kissed. Renee gave Sophie's nipple a pinch and a tug before letting it go.

       She snaked her hand down Sophie's side to her hip then she slipped
her around to the front. She let her finger comb through the soft hair
covering Sophie's pussy.  She could feel the droplets of moisture clinging
to the hair that was around those aroused lips of Sophie's. Renee heard
Sophie let out a slight coo as she teased her.  Sophie had brought her left
foot up so that her pussy was open to the soft caresses of Renee's
fingers. She then let her fingers slip along the wet slit. Sophie let out a
moan then as she pushed her pussy into those probing fingers.  Sophie
started to kiss Renee much more passionately as she let her hand wander
down to Renee's wet pussy. Renee moved her right foot up as Sophie had done
opening her pussy to Sophie's fingers.  When Sophie's fingers slid across
her clit, Renee let out a groan of pleasure. Sophie at first just caressed
her clit then her lips before she let her middle finger go between Renee'
lips. Renee then thrust her middle finger into Sophie's pussy, pushing it
in deep then bringing it out only to thrust it back in. Sophie squirmed and
moaned as Renee fucked her pussy. Soon their fingers went up to each
other's clits rolling and pinching it between their fingers. Neither were
in a hurry to bring each other off, they were more content to just arouse
and play with each other. But soon they could get no further aroused as
they had reached the point of needing to cum. Renee began to rub Sophie's
clit with a up and down motion as she liked it done and Sophie used a more
circular motion as Renee liked. By this time they were no longer able to
kiss as they panted for their breaths. Sophie put her head on Renee's
shoulder as their rubbing became more frantic. They groaned and moaned as
they brought each other to a nice orgasm.

       Renee had rolled over on her back as she let her orgasm course
through her body. In her stupor, she felt Sophie climbing on top of
her. When she opened her eyes she found that she was looking up into
Sophie's wet swollen pussy. The girlcum was oozing out from those
lips. Renee put her hand up to Sophie's hips, pulling her down to her
waiting mouth. Just as Renee started to run her tongue along Sophie's slit,
she felt Sophie begin to lick at her pussy. Renee stopped her tongue for a
moment letting it rest on Sophie's hard clit so that she could enjoy
Sophie's tongue moving along her slit, going up and down then deep inside
of her. Then she went back to giving Sophie some pleasure. She sucking and
licked the outer lips before she moved her tongue to Sophie's asshole where
she knew Sophie loved to be licked. She ran her tongue across the puckered
little hole then back across it. She placed the tip of her tongue to the
center pressing gently then easing off. This caused Sophie to stop what she
was doing so that she could concentrate on what Renee was doing to
her. Renee teased that cute little hole for a few moments before she put
her tongue back to the little hole and pressing it inside. Sophie was
completely relaxed by this time so her tongue slipped easily inside.  She
pushed it in as deep as she could and Sophie grunted her approval. Sophie
kept her tongue still as Renee tongue fucked her asshole. Renee loved to
make Sophie feel good and this was one of the best ways that she had found
that she could do that. So she enjoyed licking and fucking Sophie's asshole
with her tongue. Finally Sophie began to lick and suck on Renee's pussy
again as she grasped Renee's ass cheeks in her hands.  They licked and
sucked each other until they again reached the point of no return when they
worked on each other's clit making their orgasms that were just at the edge
of arriving come hard.

       After they had recovered, Renee tried to switch positions but Sophie
resisted.  Renee knew that Sophie loved being on top so she didn't push
it. She was content most of the time to let Sophie have her way only on
rare occasions did she push it and then Sophie would relent her dominate
position. So Renee remained under Sophie as they made love again and again
that evening. It was only when they could stand no more stimulations on
their clits did they curl up together to sleep.

       Renee was a little tired the next day as she went into work but she
was very happy. Spending an evening with your lover tends to make a person
very happy and so Renee was. When she came home that evening, she greeted
Sophie properly with a big hug and kiss. So once again Sophie decided that
she would be allowed to sleep with her that night. As the days wore on,
this began a sort of running joke for them. It wasn't until Renee gave the
kiss and hug did Sophie proclaim that she had earned the right to join her
in the bedroom that evening.

       Renee and Sophie talked about how they were going to deal with Ian
and Ursula as Renee had managed to keep them away by visiting their house
as often as she could but she hated leaving Sophie for work much less when
she wasn't working. The only problem was that Ian and Ursula had hinted
about stopping by one day soon and Renee knew that she couldn't put them
off forever. Renee just didn't know with Ina and Ursula being so close to
Sophie if they would really recognize her.

       Renee and Sophie had started to venture out more into town going out
to eat with Renee always driving since there was no way for Sophie to get
her license back since she was officially dead and neither had a clue as
how to get fake ones. They just didn't think it was worth taking a chance
at getting caught plus Sophie was content to just let Renee drive. While
they had both been able to put the accident behind them, it was and forever
would be a part of their lives.  When they had gone out so some of their
favorite restaurants, they did meet people who had known Sophie and yet
none seemed to recognize her. She was now just some new friend of
Renee's. They even came up with a new name for her, Jessie, after the old
lady that had felt Sophie's pain and allowed her to return.

       Sophie had been back for about three months when early one Saturday
morning, they heard a knock on the door. They both looked at each other as
they sipped their coffee and tea and they wondered aloud who would be
stopping by this early in the morning. Renee went to the front door and
luckily she looked through the peep hole to see who it was before she
opened the door.

       "Oh shit! Go hide!" Renee said as she turned to see Sophie standing
in the doorway leading from the kitchen to the foyer.

       "Why?" Sophie asked suddenly alarmed.

       "It's Ian and Ursula." Renee said.

       "Fuck, why didn't you tell me they were coming over this morning."
Sophie told her.

       "I didn't know!" Renee said getting frustrated. "Just stay in the
kitchen or better yet out in the garden and I'll try to get rid of them as
fast as I can."

       "Okay just hurry." Sophie said as the doorbell rang for the fourth
time.

       "Hi there, what brings you two here this morning." Renee said as she
opened the door but she stood blocking their way to give Sophie time to
hide.

       "Oh we took the boys to their baseball camp at the university so we
decided on the spur of the moment to stop by and see you. It has been so
long since we have come over." Ursula told her as she started into the
house. Ian just shrugged his shoulders as if to say he didn't have anything
to do with this, it was all his wife's doing.

       "Well come on in, it's nice that you did." Renee said as she looked
over Ian's shoulders to see if she could see Sophie.

       "I was just heading out to mow the lawn." Renee said trying to drop
a hint but Ursula didn't seem to hear what she said or rather she just
ignored the obvious hint.  Ursula was on a mission to make sure that Renee
was okay in the house. She had never bought the idea that Renee had just
decided to be happy. There had to be a reason and since she didn't seem to
be able to get it out of Renee, she was going to find out for
herself. Since Renee had gotten hurt in the accident, Ursula had decided
that Renee needed a mother to care for her and after Renee had healed,
Ursula had never been able to shed the mother role and go back to just
being a sister-in-law.

       "How about a cup of coffee? I'll make some and we can have it out on
your patio." Ursula suggested.

       "No, I'll get us some, we can sit in the living room, it is already
too hot outside."  Renee said suddenly causing Ursula to stop in her
tracks.

       "It's like seventy outside with a nice breeze." Ursula replied as
she eyed Renee with suspicion.

       "Then I'll go get it, you two sit here for a moment while I get the
coffee going."  Renee said trying desperately to keep them out of the
kitchen where Sophie was hiding.

       "That's okay, I'll get it." Sophie said appearing in the kitchen
doorway causing Ian, Ursula and Renee to suddenly turn to face her standing
there.

       "Who..." Ian started to say as he looked at Sophie then to Renee
only to have his eyes drawn back to Sophie. Renee could see that Ian was
very confused and a bit upset as was Ursula.

       "That's Jessie, my new friend." Renee said cheerfully as she looked
from Ursula to Ian to see their reaction to this lady that suddenly
appeared in the kitchen doorway.  They both had that this strange look in
their eyes as they studied Sophie carefully.  Renee could see that they saw
the similarities between this woman named Jessie and Sophie.

       "It is so nice to meet you Jessie." Ursula said as she went over to
Jessie, taking her hand in hers. But Sophie didn't take the hand instead
she stepped to Ursula giving her a hug. It was a type of hug between two
close friends that hadn't seen each other for a very long time. Ursula was
surprised by the hug but accepted it as she hugged Sophie back.

       "It's so nice to see you again Ursula." Sophie said as she let
Ursula go. If Ursula caught the slip up she didn't say anything but then
she was caught so off guard that Renee wasn't so sure just what Ursula was
picking up on and what she was missing.

       "And you must be Ian, Renee has told me so much about you." Sophie
said as she went to Ian and she gave him a hug too. He was a little more
prepared for the hug than his wife was but still when the hug ended Renee
noted that Ian had this quizzical look on his face. It was like he was
trying to place Jessie. He acted like that he knew her yet knowing that he
couldn't know her.

       "So how did you two meet?' Ursula asked as she had her wits about
her again and she was going to get the low down about Jessie.

       "Let's go to the patio and talk, it is so nice out this morning and
we should enjoy it." Sophie said as she took Ursula by the arm leading her
through the kitchen.

       "So how did you meet?" Ian whispered to her, "And just when did you
meet her?"

       "Let's talk outside and you'll find out." Renee told him as she
wondered about the answer to her brother's question as while she and Sophie
had talked about what they would tell Ian and Ursula, they never quite got
around to coming up with a good story.  She hoped that Sophie was at the
top of her game this morning because she definitely wasn't.

       As she and Ian went out of the kitchen door to the patio, Sophie was
coming back inside. Renee gave Sophie a questioning look which Sophie just
returned with a smile then when Ian glanced away, a reassuring wink.

       "What's going on here?" Ursula asked as Renee and Ian sat down at
the little table on the patio.

       "Let's just wait for So... Ah... Jessie gets back out here and we
can explain everything." Renee said as she almost fucked up called Sophie
by her real name and not Jessie.

       "We want to hear it from you honey. Why didn't you tell us that you
had found someone new?" Ursula pressed.

       Renee wanted to scream that she hadn't met anyone new but she
couldn't. And she didn't know what to say to Ursula, there was only one
answer and it was the one thing that she couldn't say. Luckily, she was
saved by the bell as Sophie came to the door carrying a tray that contained
four cups and two pots. Renee jumped up to help her through the door. "What
are we going to tell them?" Renee whispered to Sophie.

       "Just leave it to me babe, I know just what to tell them." Sophie
told her.

       "Thank god." Renee said as she took the tray from Sophie just so she
would have something to do.

       "No... thank me sweetie..." Sophie said with a smile and Renee knew
that Sophie had something up her sleeve.

       Renee placed the tray down on the table and Sophie picked up the
coffee pot, pouring out three cups. She then set about fixing the cups just
like Ian liked his, two sugars, and Ursula liked hers, a half teaspoon of
sugar and cream, and then Renee's who liked hers with one teaspoon of sugar
and extra cream. She handed the cups to each and Renee realized that Sophie
should have asked Ian and Ursula how they took their coffee and not just
made it for them. Renee could see Ian and Ursula looking at each other as
they thanked Sophie.

       Sophie then sat down pouring herself a cup of tea, she squeezed a
quarter of lemon into her tea then she took her spoon and she stirred her
tea exactly three times before placing the teaspoon by her cup. Renee had
long ago gotten use to this weird way that Sophie had with her tea and she
never really noticed it anymore but she knew that Ian and Ursula had to
notice it now as it was Sophie all over.

       "So you are wanting to know how we met?" Sophie asked as she picked
up her favorite tea cup copping it in her hands as she always did and
taking a sip.

       "Well yes we would, since Renee here has decided to keep you a
secret for whatever reason." Ursula said as she glanced toward Renee.

       "Well that is my fault, I wanted to keep her to myself for a while
before I would let her mention me. I guess I was being selfish and I'm
sorry for that. I do hope that you can see your way to forgiving me."
Sophie said.

       "Sure Jessie we can. We just want Renee to be happy and you do seem
to be making her happy." Ian told Sophie.

       "Thank you, I do try and she does make me happy." Sophie said.

       "So back to the subject at hand, how did you meet?" Ursula asked
again. Renee could see that she suspected something here and she wanted to
get to the bottom of it.

       "Well Renee and I used to be lovers long ago then we torn apart by
something that was really out of both of our control."Sophie said and Renee
just knew that Sophie was giving it all away. "So anyway that is in the
past and I don't think either of us want to go into that but then a while
back, we happen to meet up again. It was all kind of weird but it was like
we had never parted. We seemed to fit right back together like we had never
been apart."

       "That doesn't really tell us anything Jessie. What have you been
doing and when did you first meet? What do you for a living?" Ursula
pressed. Renee had to smile to herself as Ursula was determined to get to
the bottom of just what and who this Jessie was.

       "Oh you want details, I guess I can do that." Sophie said smiling as
was playing this to the hilt.

       "That would be nice, if you don't mind." Ursula said.

       "Okay, I think we can do that." Sophie said with a mischievous
grin. Then she set about weaving this tall tale that Renee wished her had a
note pad to take notes as she knew she would never remember it all. The
worst part was when Sophie would pause then ask Renee to provide some
details. Renee wanted to kill Sophie every time she did this as she tried
to come up with something that fit with the tale that Sophie was
telling. Sophie was doing one thing that Renee feared would give it all
away as she kept describing herself they way she really was. Jessie was
sounding too much like Sophie for Renee's comfort. Ian and Ursula were not
stupid people and they were listening carefully. Renee just knew that Ian
and Ursula was seeing a lot of Sophie in Jessie and there was no way that
two completely strangers could be that similar. Once she was done with her
story, Sophie asked them all if they wanted more coffee as they had
finished off and then she went to make more.

       "You know Jessie sounds a lot like Sophie." Ian said as he turned to
Renee.

       Renee was taken aback by the direct question but it wasn't
unexpected. "I guess she does, I hadn't noticed before. I'm probably just
attracted to that type of woman."

       "I guess... you are." Ursula said as Renee saw that Ursula was
studying her carefully.

       "I am, so what do you think of Jessie?" Renee asked trying to change
the subject.

       "She's nice but the main thing is that you are happy. That is all we
want for you sis." Ian said as he placed his hand on her hand.

       "I'm happy Ian, I'm very happy." Renee told him as she squeezed his
hand.

       About that time Sophie came back out with another pot of coffee, and
again she made them all a fresh cup making it just they was they liked
it. When Sophie sat back down she began to talk not giving Ian or Ursula a
chance to ask any more questions. She was great at directing a conversation
and she did so now. But all the while she talked, she would drop all this
hints that Renee was picking up on and she was sure so was Ian and
Ursula. They talked for a few hours and while Sophie was able to deflect
most of Ian and Ursula's questions, she wasn't able to misdirect all of
them. When it got close to noon, Sophie suggested that they go out for a
bit to eat, which Ian and Ursula readily agreed as they wanted to learn
more about this woman that Renee had brought into her life.

       When they got to the caf‚', and they were seated, the waitress
came over and took their orders as they talked. Then they noticed that
there was a lady at a nearby table giving her waitress a hard time about
something. They watched in horror as she lady ripped into the poor young
waitress who was just trying to be nice. Renee then notice that Sophie had
leaned over next to Ian and she whispered into Ian's ear. While she didn't
hear all of what Sophie said, she did overhear her say to him "That Bitch".
She saw Ian turn white for a moment as he looked at Sophie. He then turned
to Renee with this look like the thought that was passing through his head
could not be right but at the same time he couldn't not think it. Renee
reached over and placed her hand on her brother's hand and she gave him a
reassuring smile trying to tell him to believe the unbelievable.

       Ursula turned from the commotion at this moment and she saw how
white Ian was, "Honey, you okay, you look like you've seen a ghost."

       Ian didn't say anything for a second then he replied with, "I think
I have."

       "What?" Ursula asked.

       "I'll tell you later honey." Ian told her as he looked back over at
Sophie and she gave a slight nod of her head.

       "So Jessie, are you planning on sticking around this time?" Ian
asked her.

       "Yes.. I do believe that I'm here for as long as Renee needs and
wants me to be."  Sophie told him.

       "That's good to know, I don't want my sis to have to go through what
she has had to go through this past year." Ian told her.

       "I don't either dear, neither of us can handle that again." Sophie
said.

       "Why do I feel like I'm the only one not knowing what you all are
talking about?"  Ursula asked as she looked from one to the other.

       "Because we are being rude and leaving you out dear." Ian said with
a grin. To which Ian got an icy stare from his wife.

       "Well you know what I can't wait for?" Sophie asked cheerfully.

       "What's that Jessie?" Ursula said after she finished giving her
husband the stare.

       "Renee has told me so much about how you enjoy shopping and I can't
wait for the three of us to make a all day shopping trip. That way we can
talk as Renee shows us how impatient she really is then pouts when we make
her try on something." Sophie said.

       "Yes she is a terrible shopper, I do miss the shopping trips that
Sophie..." Ursula was saying as she looked over at Renee then to Sophie as
the light finally went off in her head. She too went white as a ghost but
no one mentioned it as her mind put two and two together.

       "I do need to powder my nose, will you excuse me?" Sophie said as
she stood up not waiting for a reply, then she walked toward the restrooms.

       After she had left, Renee cleared her throat then she asked, "Am I
crazy?"

       Ian looked at his wife before he answered with, "No sis you're
not. I'll never doubt anything you ever tell me again.

       "Nor shall I." Ursula said as she reached out and squeezed Renee's
hands.

       On their anniversary, Sophie and Renee found themselves back at
Ian's and Ursula's house celebrating. When it came time for Sophie to open
her present from Renee, she found that Renee had gotten her a new pair of
work gloves. This time when she saw the gloves, she began to cry. She
didn't even bother trying them on, she went straight to the right thumb
where there was tissue paper. Renee had thought about when to give Sophie
her engagement ring back and she had almost given it to her several times
but she knew when she had to do it. By the time that Sophie had the ring
out of the paper, Renee was back on her knee asking her to marry her
again...

       The End.
