Y/n’s POV:
“Isn’t this movie supposed to be a romance?” Demitra asked, taking another spoonful of ice cream and offering me some more. “Yeah, I think so. It’s just starting slow,” I replied, accepting the spoonful she offered. The movie wasn’t grabbing my attention much, Sunday’s words from a few hours before plagued my mind.
“Does it still hurt?” I asked the girl next to me that was a little closer to me now than when the movie started. “No, thanks to your remedy. My tongue is numb from the cold tho.” she answered making me laugh a little. “I’m glad it helped.” I told her while turning to look at her. “Me too.” Demitra replied, now looking at me as well. We stood like that for a few seconds, something about her eyes luring me, not letting me look away. I never noticed how beautiful she was.
What are you thinking? This is neither the time, nor the person to be thinking and acting like this about.
There was a commotion in the movie, which was the perfect time for me to look away from her. We stayed in silence before I had to break it. “I’ll be right back, I need to get some water.” “Okay, can you get me one too?” “Sure.” I took the now empty tub of ice cream and made my way down to the kitchen where I threw it away and grabbed two water bottles from the fridge.
As I was about to head back up, I saw Sunday sitting alone in the living room. “Hey” I broke the silence. The girl looked at before returning the same greeting. “How’s Mia?” she added. “She’s better, it doesn’t hurt anymore.” “That’s good to hear” “Listen, about earlier-” “I meant what I said” Sunday interrupted, narrowing her eyes at me.
“Demitra’s been through a lot, and she deserves someone who truly cares about her.” “And I do care about her,” I said firmly. “More than you know.” I added to my statement. Sunday studied me for a moment before nodding. “Good. Just remember what I said.” “I will,” I promised. “Goodnight, Sunday.” “Goodnight, Y/N,” she replied, her tone softer than before. Well, now I know that the threat still stands.
With that, I went back up to my ‘girlfriends’ room. It’s still weird to me that we are in a relationship, as everyone thinks we are, but we’re straight and hated eachother prior to the whole thing. “There you are, you just missed the best part.” Demitra said, kind of, devastated? “I’m sorry, here’s you water” I handed her the bottle that she gratefully took. “It’s okay, thanks for the water.” “No problem.” I said as I sat back down next to her on the bed.

“What should we do now?” Demitra asked as end credits started rolling for the movie. “Why don’t we watch another movie?” “Sure, which one?” “You choose this time.” I passed her the remote which she took and started scrolling through movies before she came across Spider-Man:No was home. “Is this one okay?” she asked “Yeah.” Demitra proceeded to start the movie and get comfortable in bed, our shoulders now brushing against eachother.

About a third into the movie, Demitra moved closer to me and placed her head on my shoulder. I tensed up for a second before quickly relaxing. “Is this okay” she asked, not moving away from my shoulder. “Yeah” “Are you sure?” “I’m positive”. After a few minutes of us sitting like this, I started to hear snoring. When I looked down, Demitra was asleep. Fuck, what am I supposed to do know? I have to leave soon.
I’m probably gonna wait for a little so I don’t wake her up now and then I’m gonna go home.

About half an hour has passed. I turned the tv off and placed my arm under her back and head to put her in a more comfortable position so she would wake up with a sore neck. When I layed her down, I placed the blanket over her gently and moved a couple stray curls that fell on her face.
I was about to stand up and leave when something grabbed me by the wrist, not letting go. “Can you stay, please?” Demitra had woken up. “I have to feed Aria, Demitra” “Can someone else do it, I don’t want you to leave yet.” she said in her groggy state. I don’t think she knows what she actually said and if she actually ment it, but I could try something before I had to leave.
“I’ll see what I can do, give me one second.” I told the girl softly while sighing. She was now sitting up against the headboard, waiting for my answer. I’ll try and see if Olivia can go over and feed her.

Okay, the last message was a joke. Get your dirty minds out the gutter. But at least I got that sorted. “I asked Olivia to feed her.” I told Demitra while putting my phone on the bedside table. “So, you’re staying?” she asked in a soft and sleepy voice. “Yeah” I answered. “Let me get you a change of clothes.” Demitra got up and went to her closet where she pulled out a pair of sweatpants and a shirt for me. “These are for you. I can wait outside so you can change if you want.” she said, pointing to the door after gently handing the clothes to me. She has been gentle with me the whole day and I don’t understand why. We hate eachother.
“Thank you, it’s okay, you don’t have to do that.” “Okay, I’ll be on the bed then.” Demitra said after which she did exactly what she said she would do. I placed the clothes on an armchair she had in her room and started changing. When I was done, I folded my clothes and placed them on the same chair and walked over to where the curly head was sitting. “I’m done” I told her as she looked up at me. “Okay, let’s go to sleep.”
We got into bed, a decent distance between us. I turned on my side and was about to fall asleep when I heard Demitra start talking “Thanks for everything today and thank you for staying over.” I turned so I could face her, it was dark in the room, but I could still see her beautiful chocolate eyes looking at me and her plump lips that displayed a soft smile, her dimples showing.
“It’s the least I could do Demitra. I was a bitch to you yesterday for no reason and I’m very sorry about that.” I told her honestly. “It’s totally okay, I get it. Can I ask you something tho?” “Sure, what is it?” “Can you stop calling me Demitra? I feel a little weird when you call me all serious and stuff, we are in a relationship after all.” “What would you like for me to call you?” “Anything you want.” she said, her eyes half closed. “Okay then. Goodnight Mia.” “Goodnight Y/nn.” Comfortable silence fell over us. I felt myself drifting off before darkness fully engulfed me.

Demitra’s POV:
Rays of sun coming through the cracks in my blinds woke me up and I felt very energized. I felt someones arms around me and my head in the crook of someones neck, which made me panic until a fruity floral scent filled my nose. I got up just enough to see who the person was. It was Y/n, which made me relax.
I totally forgot that I asked her to stay over last night. She was still fast asleep. I caught myself looking at her. She has long eyelashes, a straight nose and lips that were slightly parted while she slept. Her cheeks were blushed light pink. All of her features were relaxed. She looks so peaceful while she’s sleeping. I snapped out the trance like state that I was in while looking at her. I didn’t want to wake her up so I just went back to the position I was in before and listened to her steady heartbeat, making me drift off to sleep again.

When I woke up again, I was in the same position as before, but this time, Y/n was awake on her phone. I took a deep breath, her perfume filling my nose for the second time this morning. Y/n looked down at me “Good morning” she said quietly, a little above a whisper. “Good morning.” I said back in the same manner. “How did you sleep?” she asked. “Really good, sorry for sleeping on you.” “It’s okay, I’m glad you slept well.” “What about you?” “I slept well” “That’s good, what time is it?” I asked, starting to get up. “12:15” Wow, I haven’t slept in that late for God knows how long. “Should we go down?” I asked, stretching next to her. “Sure, let’s go” Y/n said while getting out of bed with me following right behind her.
We went straight to the kitchen where everyone was already sitting and talking. “Hey lovebirds” Eli said loudly. “Did you sleep well?” Noah added. “As a matter of fact, we did” “I don’t doubt it” Noah said. “What are you talking about?” Y/n asked, very confused. Noah didn’t say anything, he just looked over to Eli that was already looking for something on her phone. After about 5 seconds, they turned the phone to reveal a picture of Y/n and I sleeping, cuddled up. “When the fuck did you take this?” I asked looking at the picture a little closer, I was smiling while sleeping. Weird.
“About three hours ago, yeah, three hours.” Noah said, looking at Eli and Sunday for confirmation. “Did you have breakfast yet?” “Yeah, we didn’t want to wake you up since you looked very cute.” Sunday said. “Okay, do you want pancakes babe?” I asked while turning to Y/n. “Sure, why not.”
We got all of the ingredients and started making the batter, throwing flour at eachother occasionally. We came up with a system so it can all go smoothly. I was on batter spreading duty, while Y/n was flipping them, and it was working flawlessly.
“There’s no way you can make it do a double flip without a spatula.” I told the girl next to me. “Oh, you wanna bet?” “50 dollars if you do it.” I said, putting my hand out for her to shake. “Deal” she said shaking my hand. She got ready and took the pan of the heat, shaking it a little to check if the pancake was ready to be flipped. After checking, she took a deep breath and flung the pancake into the air. Shockingly, it actually did do a double flip and land in the pan. “I’ll take my 50 dollars, thank you very much” Y/n said, proud of herself. “How did you do that?” I thought it was going to fall on the floor. “It’s a secret” she answered while plating the pancake.

When they were all done, it was time to try them, and let me say, they were so good. “These are bus” I told the girl next to me. “They are so good, oh my God.” we continued to eat our pancakes, with the occasional smalltalk. After we were done, Y/n helped me with the dishes.
“I think it’s time for me to go, I need to check on my dog.” Y/n said while gathering her things. “Okay, thank you for coming.” “Thank you for having me.” Why is she always polite bro, but that doesn’t matter now. She said her goodbyes to everyone before making her way to the front door. “I’ll walk you out.” I told her while following her to her car.
When she opened her door and was about to get in, I had a very strong urge to just, hug her. “Wait.” “Is everything oka-” I cut her off by hugging her tightly. Her body was very tense, but relaxed after a few seconds and hugged me by the waist just as tight.
I don’t know how long we stayed like that, all I know is when I accidentally looked at the window I saw Sunday, Eli and Noah looking at us with their phones out. I pulled away from the hug “Let me know when you get home.” “I will, bye Mia.” “Bye Y/nn.” With that, my girlfriend got into her car and drove off to her house while I got back inside, not knowing what those baboons are going to tell me.
