Marella was about to walk into Linh's bedroom, as she heard tiny sniffles coming out. She entered their bedroom, spotting her girlfriend slumped against the bed, cheeks damp and tearstained. concern was etched onto her face as she walked over to her, rubbing Linh's back gently.

"What happened?" she asked softly, not pressuring her to say anything. she trusted Linh with her life, and knew that whatever happened wasn't her fault

"I-" Linh started to speak, but no words would come out if her soft pink lips. Marella moved Linh's head onto her lap, tucking a strand of black and silver behind her ear. Linh closed her eyes, snuggling up closer to Marella.

"W-when are we g-going to tell t-them," Linh asked between sniffles.

"Soon," she answered like always. " Soon."

They sat there like that, admiring and finding comfort in each other's presence. Marella leaned down, planting a soft kiss on Linh's forehead.

"To make things better, how about we tell the people we trust more first? hmm?" Marella said softly. 

Linh nodded slowly as her breathing calmed. "So first, your brother, he'll definitely support us," as Linh nodded she continued. "And Dex, he's been my friend for ages, and he's the most adorable cinnamon roll, so he will. So will Sophie," Linh shook her head at Sophie's name.

"She might not..." Linh said slowly.

"She will baby," Marella started. " In the human world, there are lots of people like us, and Sophie was really mad that it wasn't that normal here." She booped Linh's delicate nose.

"Oh," Linh sniffled, then wiped her silver-blue eyes.

"Yes 'oh'," Marella said placing her chin on top of Linh. " Are you ok now?"

Linh nodded slowly and sat up, her fingers still twined with Marella's. "I think I wanna tell them now," she said. It wasn't exactly a question for her girlfriend to answer, more like a command. And Marella knew that.

"Y'know I'm proud of you," Marella said. " I mean you've got so many people that are going to judge you, and I don't. Well maybe except for my mom and dad," she paused for a moment. "Your brave, Linh." She took Linh's face in her soft hands and caressed it lovingly. "Your my brave Linh."

Linh let her hand take its spot on the back of Marella's neck as Marella leaned in, her hand on Linh's waist and the other on her cheek. Their lips moved in sync and Marella could still taste the tears left on Linh's soft pink cheeks. They pulled apart, Linh resting her head in the crook of Marella's neck, left in each others embrace. There was nothing that could break them apart.
Nothing.
