Kissing Practice

“So, we’re alone…” Lupa said from her position in front of Leia's bed.. “What did you want to talk about?”

“This is so stupid, and embarassing…” Leia sighed, her face already turning a crimson shade of red. Leia was silent for a moment, her lips and jaw moving but no words were forming.

“Well?” Lupa asked, getting impatient.

“Okay.” Leia took a deep breath. “There is a boy I like.” There is a slight pause.

“And?” Lupa asked.

“Umm well I already know he likes me, but he hasn’t said anything to me.” Leia continued looking at her feet as they swung off the edge of the bed. “So I thought about just asking him out myself.”

“Okay, why are you telling me this?” Lupa asked again, her arms folded.

“Well, I-” Leia’s words caught in her throat. “I dont know how to kiss” Leia mumbled the last word out, barely loud enough for Lupa to catch it.

“You don’t know how to what?” Lupa asked, leaning forward.

“How to… Kiss.” Leia finally blurted out, using all her willpower and mental fortitude to get out that last word.

Lupa looked confused for a moment.

“Well what do you want me to do about it?” Lupa asked.

“I just… well, you know. I Know that you are more experienced than me with these types of things. I figured you could just give me some tips, or tell me what to do or something.” Leia explained.

“Hmm…” Lupa thought for a moment. “It’s hard to explain, there is a certain way you part your lips, and it’s kind of like sucking on the other person’s lips, but not really. I think its just something you have to learn through experience.”

“Oh…” Leia said, disheartened.

“I mean… I guess I could just… teach you.” Lupa suggested, a slight smile coming over her face.

“Huh?” Leia looked up at her older sister.

“You know, if you want to learn I could let you ‘practice’ on me.” Lupa said, pointing at herself with her thumb.

“Oh!” Leia said, her face getting even redder than it had been before.

“So, what do you say?” Lupa asked as she took a step towards Leia and her bed.

“I- We couldn’t. We shouldn’t. It would be wrong…” Leia started to mumble to herself.

“Are you sure?” Lupa asked, leaning down so her face hovered in front of Leia’s their lips inches apart. They looked deep into each other’s eyes and could feel each other’s hot breath. Leia swallowed hard, not answering.

Lupa very slowly leaned in further and puckered his lips. Leia succumbed to the moment and tilted her head, ready to receive the kiss. She closed her eyes and moved her head forward an inch until she felt the soft caress of Lupa’s lips.

It was brief, at first, It felt almost like silk, or a feather grazed her lips. Then Lupa took initiative and pressed into Leia, meeting their lips more forcefully. Lupa took the lead, obviously as Leia was completely inexperienced. Leia wasn’t really sure how to react at first, so she didn’t. It was only after a few forceful kisses did Leia start kissing back, copying Lupa’s movements.

After what felt like minutes, but in reality was only a few moments, Lupa broke the kiss and pulled her head back, giving Leia a chance to breathe and take it all in. Leia gasped, out of breath and slowly opened her eyes. She found a satisfied looking Lupa licking her lips.

“Didn’t know you had lip gloss on.” Lupa said.

“Oh.. is that bad?” Leia asked, her hand coming up to her mouth.

“No, I can just taste it, is all.” Lupa said.

The room grew awkwardly silent for a second.

“So…” Leia started.

“Did you learn anything?” Lupa asked.

“Wha- Well, yes…” Leia said, flushing.

“Good. Maybe next time I’ll show you how to use your tongue.” Lupa said with a toothy grin.
