Now let's get into the good stuff.

这部全新的有声书叫《亲密伙伴》。

This brand new audiobook, it's called Close Companions.

这是第一次在本播客里播出。

It's new to this podcast.

不过在App里早就有了。

It's not new to the app.

它在App上已经上线一年左右了。

It's been on there for about a year or so.

这是一个设定在摄政时期英格兰的历史爱情故事，情感浓烈，女女氛围十足。

And this is a historical romance story that's very heavy on the spice and very heavy on the sapphic energy.

有点像《布里奇顿》，但同性元素多得多。

Think Bridgerton but way, way more gay.

故事讲的是两位来自摄政时期英国的女性朋友——威拉和夏洛特，她们都即将步入社交季，被安排联姻以巩固家族的政治或经济地位，但两人都对这种生活提不起兴趣。

It's the story of two friends in Regency era England, Willa and Charlotte, both on the cusp of being presented to society, aka married to someone for their family's political or monetary gain, but both find that they're not particularly interested in the life presented to them.

但他们对彼此却很感兴趣。

However, they are pretty interested in one another.

在第一章——也就是今天我们分享的这一章里，一件意外的事让他们共度一夜，两人内心的真实感情终于说破了。

And in chapter one, the chapter we're sharing today, a surprising turn of events leaves them sharing a bedroom for the night and the truth of their feelings for one another finally comes out.

听一听吧，不管你喜不喜欢，都给这个播客点个评分或者关注一下。

Take a listen and if you like it, love it, hate it, give the podcast a rate or follow.

好的。

Okay.

接下来是第一章：狭路相逢。

Here it is, chapter one, close quarters.

请享受。

Enjoy.

春天如常降临，带着它一贯的排场和折磨。

Spring arrived with all the usual ceremony and all the usual torments.

其中就包括我每周三次被迫参加的绘画课。

Among them, the painting lessons I was subjected to thrice weekly.

这么好的春日，我本该牵上马，去牧场溜达一圈。

On a beautiful spring day like this, I'd have saddled up the horse and ridden out to the pastures.

可现在，我却坐在客厅里，被布拉德肖小姐盯着，一动不敢动。

But instead, here I was in the drawing room under miss Bradshaw's watchful glowering eye.

唯一还算幸运的是，我并不是一个人受这份罪。

The only saving grace was that I did not suffer this indignity alone.

你画的是

Is that an

苹果吗？

apple you're painting?

不是。

No.

本来想画我家那只心爱的宠物。

It was meant to be a beloved household pet.

说实话，我真看不出来哪儿像。

I must confess, I do not see the likeness.

和你不一样，我天生就没画画的天赋。

Unlike you, I have no natural genius for painting.

你说得没错，夏洛特，你母亲托付我来培养你的艺术气质，尽管到目前为止它藏得挺深。

Right as you may be on that count, Charlotte, your mother has entrusted me with the development of your artistic soul, as hidden as that has proven to be thus far.

还有维拉，这才是女性精神的纯粹表达。

And Willa, a pure expression of the feminine spirit.

干得漂亮，维拉。

Excellent work, Willa.

是的。

Yes.

真不错。

Excellent work.

你该向维拉多学学，尤其是如何像一位淑女那样举止得体。

You would do well to learn from Willa, particularly in the art of carrying yourself as a lady should.

要是这所谓的修养非要穿这么不舒服的衣服，我可没多大动力去学。

I should be more inclined to do so if this art did not require the wearing of such uncomfortable clothing.

你那样说话可不太像样，夏洛特。

It's quite unbecoming when you speak like that, Charlotte.

那个，我得去外面一趟。

One should ah, I am needed outdoors.

园丁需要我指点一下春季花坛的布局。

The groundskeeper requires my opinions on the arrangement of the spring flower beds.

夏洛特，威拉，我回来之前你们继续画静物。

Charlotte, Willa, continue your still lifes until I return.

你有没有发现，她从来没陪我们把一整节课上完？

Do you notice that she has never spent the entire length of a lesson with us?

我还以为你并不想多花

I did not think you wished to have more

时间跟布拉德肖小姐在一起。

time with miss Bradshaw.

恐怕她更想跟园丁聊天，而不是跟我们说话。

She appears more eager to speak to the groundskeeper than to us, I'm afraid.

他们俩确实挺熟的。

They do seem to be rather familiar with each other.

你不觉得吗？

Don't you think?

要是我们往窗外看一眼，说不定会看见布拉德肖小姐正骑在他身上，就在那片春花花坛里。

Perhaps if we glanced out the window, we'd find miss Bradshaw astride him amongst those spring flower beds.

维拉？

Willa?

那可比这碗水果有意思多了，绝对值得画。

A far more interesting subject for a painting than this bowl of fruit, for certain.

这么久以来，布拉德肖小姐还以为我是坏影响呢。

And all this time, miss Bradshaw had thought me the bad influence.

不过我们彼此可是很好的影响。

Ah, but we are excellent influences on each other.

对吧？

Are we not?

一堂课接一堂课，我们总是一起待在客厅里，只有我们两个人，布拉德肖小姐总能找到各种理由躲开。

Lesson after lesson, we would sit together in the drawing room, alone, miss Bradshaw having found one reason or another to excuse herself.

我倒挺高兴的。

I was glad for it.

她一走，我们终于能做自己想做的事了——聊天、笑闹，自在地待在一起，不用怕有人盯着我们的一举一动。

In her absence, there was finally space to do as we wished, to talk, to laugh, to be together without a watchful eye picking out every floor.

我们很快就亲近起来，我也没多想，至少直到那天，我们不小心碰到了手。

We grew closer quickly, and I didn't question it, at least not until that day when we touched by chance.

夏洛特，你有那瓶青绿色的颜料吗？

Charlotte, do you have the Viridian?

我根本不知道这个词是什么意思。

I have absolutely no notion what that word means.

就是一种淡蓝绿色。

It's a pale blue green.

我想，这大概就是了。

I suppose this could be it.

你能递给我吗？

Will you hand it to me?

她伸出手，漫不经心地去拿那支颜料管。

She extended her hand, absently reaching for the tube.

她的手指轻轻擦过我的掌心，那股暖意仿佛传遍了我全身。

Her fingers grazed my palm, the warmth seeming to pass through my whole being.

哦，对不起。

Oh, I'm sorry.

没关系。

I It's alright.

谢谢。

Thank you.

维拉温柔地对我笑了笑，继续回去画画。

Willa smiled gently at me, going back to her painting.

我看着她俯身在画架前，微微皱着眉，拨开垂到额前的几缕头发。

I watched her bend over the easel, frowning slightly, brushing at the wisps of hair that fell over her forehead.

不知怎么的，我就是移不开眼睛。

Somehow, I could not tear my gaze away.

一种陌生的感觉在我胸口慢慢蔓延开来，我不禁想，她是不是也有同样的感受。

A strange new feeling began to unfurl in my chest, and I wondered if she was feeling something similar.

她忽然望向我，眼神只停留了一瞬，随即迅速转开，好像知道自己多看了那么一秒钟。

Her eyes met mine for a moment, and then she swiftly turned away as if she knew her gaze had lingered for a second too long.

春天过去了，树上的花苞渐渐绽放成花朵。

Spring went by, the blossoms on the trees turning to flowers.

有一天，天气美得让人心醉，布拉德肖小姐带我们到花园里，把一盘早已不新鲜的冰点放在灿烂的阳光下。

One day, the weather was so beautiful, miss Bradshaw brought us out to the garden, setting up one of her stale ice in the brilliant sunshine.

和往常一样，她又找了个借口躲开我们，才上了一小时的课就不见了人影。

As usual, she had found an excuse to relieve herself of our presence, disappearing barely an hour into the lesson.

这看起来可不像布拉德肖小姐让我们画的那组水果盘。

That doesn't look like the fruit bowl miss Bradshaw intended for us to paint.

这算是一种不一样的静物画，更有人味儿。

It is a still life of a different sort, rather more human.

你该不会又想重来一遍吧。

Surely, you're not attempting anew.

她又要发脾气了。

She'll have one of her fits.

她那些没完没了的规矩真让人烦。

Oh, her endless rules are tiresome.

我要是画画，就得画我喜欢的东西。

If I am to paint at all, I should paint what I like.

确实应该这样。

You certainly should.

不过，容我直言，这幅画在构图上还有提升的空间。

Though, if I can say so, I see some room for improvement in this particular form.

这幅绝妙的人体，还能怎么改进呢？

Oh, what could possibly improve this exquisite nude?

也许加点翠绿会更好。

Perhaps some Viridian.

我这样做好吗

Is it right if I

当然了。

Oh, of course.

她搬了张凳子坐到我身后。

She pulled her stool up behind me.

她伸手绕过我，拿起画笔在我画布上添了几笔。

Reaching around me, she lifted her brush to my canvas, adding brush strokes alongside mine.

我体内突然涌起一阵热意。

I felt a heat flare in me.

我能感觉到她的胸口贴着我的背，下巴搭在我肩上，脸颊就挨着我的脸。

I could feel her chest pressed against my back, her chin over my shoulder, her cheek right next to mine.

就这样。

There.

现在既然

Now that

这样看起来更有意思。

is far more interesting to the eye.

翠绿色在肤色上确实很突出。

Viridian certainly stands out against the color of the skin.

好多了。

It is much improved.

也许我们可以再合作画一幅画。

Perhaps we should partner on another painting.

她轻轻把手放在我的手上，我转过身去。

She shifted her hand lightly on mine and I turned towards her.

我们的脸离得只有几英寸，她的呼吸温热地拂过我的脸颊。

Our faces were mere inches apart, her breath warm against my cheek.

我体内再次涌起那种渴望，同样的难以抗拒的热意。

I felt desire swell in me, that same impossible heat.

她的目光扫过我的嘴唇。

Her gaze flickered to my lips.

我朝她靠得更近了，心跳得厉害。

I leaned closer to her, my heart pounding in my chest.

威拉，你父母从伦敦发来消息了。

Willa, there's been a message from your parents in London.

一场风暴快要来了。

A storm approaches.

这样的坏天气不适合赶路。

Their journey cannot be made in such dismal weather.

他们希望你今晚留在埃弗利家过夜。

They wish you to stay the night here in the Everly household.

你就睡夏洛特的房间。

You shall stay in Charlotte's bed.

可以，你留下吧。

Yes, you may.

谢谢你，夏洛特。

Thank you, Charlotte.

我可不是第一次有朋友留宿在我卧室了。

It was hardly the first time I had a friend to stay the night in my bedroom.

这地方天气说变就变，马车也常出问题，朋友之间睡在一起再平常不过。

It was common in these parts for weather to turn, carriages to break, and friends often slept next to one another.

但看到威尔拉躺在我床边，我的心跳得厉害，简直觉得她肯定能听见。

But the sight of Willa next to my bed set my heart pounding so loudly, I thought surely she must hear it.

你可以挑一件我的睡裙穿。

You you may borrow one of my night dresses.

谢谢你。

Thank you.

我们背对着彼此，脱掉了衣服。

Turning our backs to each other, we shed our clothing.

袜子脱起来很容易，但我听见威尔拉在费劲解她裙子背后的扣子。

Our stockings came off easily enough, but I could hear Willa struggling with the buttons down the back of her dress.

这该死的东西。

This accursed thing.

转过身去。

Turn around.

我来帮你。

I'll help you.

我看见了维拉裸露的肩膀，还有她背部的曲线。

I could see Willa's bare shoulders, the curve of her back.

我的手指在扣子上微微发抖。

My fingers trembled on the buttons.

解开最上面那颗扣子时，我的手碰到了她的皮肤。

Undoing the topmost catch, my hand brushed against her skin.

我感觉到她屏住了呼吸，裙子轻轻滑落在地上。

I felt her breath stutter, Her dress fall to the floor.

我来帮你脱，夏洛特。

I'll do yours, Charlotte.

好。

Yes.

好吧。

Alright.

转过去。

Turn around.

我感觉到她的呼吸拂过我的后颈，她的手正解着扣子。

I felt her breath on the back of my neck, her hands on the buttons.

随着裙子松开，胸口的压迫感减轻，一股暖意缓缓漫上我的身体。

As my dress loosened and the pressure on my chest eased, a warmth crept up my body.

我渴望她的触碰，渴望她的手碰我。

I wanted her touch, wanted her hands on me.

我……

I

好了。

It's done.

谢谢你，Willa。

Thank you, Willa.

我穿上睡裙，又递给她一件，转开了视线。

I pulled on my night dress, handing her another, averting my gaze.

也许我们该休息了。

Perhaps we should.

今天真是够累的。

It's been a long day.

是的，当然。

Yes, of course.

你一定累坏了吧。

You must be exhausted.

我们上了床，熄灭了所有的灯。

We climbed into my bed, and I extinguished the lamps.

月光从窗户斜斜地洒进来。

Moonlight slanted through the window.

沉默中仿佛有种紧张的气氛。

The silence felt charged.

每一个细微的动作，每一次呼吸，仿佛都在房间里回荡。

Each tiny movement, each breath seemed to echo around the room.

维拉在床上动了一下。

Willa shifted in the bed.

盖在我们身上的被单随着呼吸轻轻起伏，擦过我的皮肤。

The sheet that covered the both of us rising and falling against my skin.

她离得这么近，我心头涌起一阵悸动，一丝兴奋。

A prickle of anticipation, of excitement at her proximity went through me.

我屏住呼吸，一动不动。

I froze, holding my breath.

在微弱的光线下，维拉又动了起来。

In the half darkness, Willa began to move again.

她慢慢地、小心翼翼地朝我靠近，动作迟疑，几乎没缩短我们之间的距离。

Slowly, tentatively, she was coming closer to me, uncertain gestures that barely closed the distance between the two of us.

我轻轻呼出一口气，稳住自己，闭上了眼睛。

I let out a breath, gathering myself, closing my eyes.

我也慢慢向她靠了过去。

I inched closer to her in return.

我将她拉向自己，心里想着她的唇会是什么味道。

I pulled her towards me, wondering at the taste of her lips.

我们的手在彼此身上找到了从未触碰过的地方。

Our hands found new places on each other's bodies they had not yet touched.

我的手从她腰际滑下，悄悄探入了她的内衣里。

My hand on the small of her back wandered lower, slipping below her underclothes.

好的。

Yes.

夏洛特，我想这么做。

Charlotte, I want to.

我可以吗？

May I?

我希望你这么做。

I want you to.

我将手指轻轻滑入她的腿间，感受到一片温热湿润，早已浸湿了我的手。

I nudged my fingers between her thighs, finding a slick heat, a wetness that coated my hand.

她紧贴着我，渴望着，我轻柔地摩挲，找到了一种节奏，让她无声地随着我的动作起伏。

She was swollen against me, wanting, and I rubbed gently, finding a rhythm that made her rock wordlessly into me.

我感觉到她的手放在我的胸口，透过睡衣薄薄的布料触碰着我。

I felt her hand against my chest, touching me through the thin fabric of my night dress.

她分开双腿，我将手指更深地探入她体内。

She parted her thighs, I slid my fingers deeper into her.

这种感觉……

That feels

你感觉到了吗？喜欢吗？

you feel do you like it?

是的。

Yes.

她再次吻了我，随着我的手指，有节奏地轻轻律动。

She kissed me again, moving on my fingers with an insistent rhythm.

她的身体微微颤抖，我稳住她，吻着她的脖子，找到那些让她大腿轻颤的敏感点。

Her body shook, and I held her steady, planting kisses on her neck, finding all the places inside her that made her thighs quiver.

我

I

我从未有过这样的感觉，Willa。

and I've never felt Willa.

天啊。

Oh, god.

你对我做的这些，我

What you're doing to me is I

我弯曲手指，再次找到那个让她惊呼的部位，同时吻住她的唇，感受她在我体内收紧。

curled my fingers, finding again that spot that made her cry out, pressing my mouth against hers as she tightened around me.

我也想碰触你。

I want to touch you too.

我需要你。

I need you.

到我这儿来。

Come to me.

你能教我吗？

Will you guide me?

我希望你能像我享受你那样，尽情感受自己的快乐。

I want you to have your pleasure as you've given me mine.

她把手掌贴在我的大腿之间。

She pressed her palm between my thighs.

我用另一只手引导她的手指到我想被触碰的地方，握住她的手，缓缓画着小而坚定的圈。

With my free hand, I guided her fingers to the place I wanted to be touched, grasping her hand in mine, moving in small, firm circles.

她的触碰让我几乎失控，全身每一寸都随之紧绷又松开，那种感觉无法形容。

Her touch made me falter, made every part of me tighten and loosen in indescribable ways.

看你这样子，美得让人心颤。

Seeing you like this is exquisite.

你能再……

Will you push your

把手指再往里深入一点？

fingers deeper inside me?

像这样吗？

Like this?

哦，对，就是这样。

Oh, yes.

继续这样。

Keep doing that.

求你了。

Oh, please.

哦，天啊，夏洛特。

Oh, god, Charlotte.

我

I

感觉她扭动着，更深地进入我体内。

felt her twist and slide deeper into me.

但我还是想要更多。

Still, I wanted more.

我突然有了股大胆的冲动。

A boldness took hold of me.

我跪起身来，分开双腿，整个人俯在她上面，她的手指依然深埋在我体内。

I rose onto my knees, parting my thighs so I was atop her, Her fingers still buried inside me.

我缓缓地开始用胯部蹭向她。

Slowly, I began to rock my hips into her.

那种说不清的感觉再次席卷了我，从头到脚一阵阵涌来。

The nameless sensation overtook me again, washing over me from head to toe.

体内有什么东西正在积聚。

Something began to build inside me.

快感一层叠着一层，快要冲到顶点。

Pleasure upon pleasure coming to a head.

我喘不过气，心里有种莫名的焦躁，一种强烈的渴望。

I felt breathless, felt a strange impatience, a wanting.

威拉的触碰变得越发迫切。

Willa's touch had become more insistent.

她找到了一种节奏，让我说不出话来，仿佛整个人都交给了身体的每一丝感觉。

She'd found a rhythm that made me unable to speak, as if I'd given myself wholly over to the sensations of my body.

有那么一瞬间，我们彼此对望，惊讶、愉悦，还带着一丝慌乱。

For a moment, we regarded the other with surprise, with pleasure, with a certain fright.

我们都不知道该说什么才好。

Neither of us knew the right thing to say.

我躺回床边，挨着威拉，双手摸索着找她的手。

I lay back on the bed next to Willa, my hands searching for hers.

她轻轻握住了我的手指。

She laced her fingers in mine.

天啊。

God.

夏洛特。

Charlotte.

是吗

Was it

这正是你想要的吗？

was it what you wanted?

是的。

Yes.

比我想象的还要多。

More than I'd ever imagined.
