You woke up to your least favorite sound: your alarm. You were more tired than usual this morning, your demanding work schedule had started taking a toll on you. As grateful as you were for your job, you desperately needed time off.
Helena rolled over to face you. "Good morning, my love," she said, taking your hand. You had to smile at her and her adorable morning voice.
"Morning". She leaned over and kissed your forehead.
"Are you okay?" she asked. You loved being with someone who was so perceptive to your emotions.
"I'm just tired," you told her, "I love my job, but the schedule is tough".
"You don't have to explain yourself, I understand," she took your hand in hers.
"I feel bad taking off, though".
"Don't. Even though you're the main character, they can still do some shots without you. Sometimes, you have to take off. Julie will understand".
"At least you're friends with her. She can't be that mean to me," you joked.
"She won't be," your girlfriend encouraged.
"Hi, y/n. Everything okay?" Julie asked once she picked up the call.
"Hi, I was hoping I could take the day off today?"
"Will you be back tomorrow?"
"Yes, I just need one day," you said.
"No problem, see you tomorrow". You thanked her and hung up.
"You have off?" Helena asked, and you nodded.
"Julie was nice about it".
"I knew she would be," she assured you, "now you have the whole day to relax".
"And spend time with you," you added, "we haven't had time to just ourselves in a while".
"You're right," she kissed you, "and there are just so many things we can do". You kissed her back, putting your arm around her to pull her closer.
"I was going to take a bath. Care to join?" you asked with a smirk, getting out of bed but not letting go of her hand.
"I'd love to, deary," she agreed, her voice seductive. She got up, only wearing a short and silky nightgown.
"You're pretty," you held her in your arms, wrapping your hands around her waist.
She giggled. "Thank you," she said, planting a kiss on your lips, "wait for me in the bathroom? I'll be right there".
You went into the bathroom, putting on the water to fill up the bath. You got lavender bath salts from the cabinet and put them into the water, the sweet aroma filling up the bathroom quickly.
"I brought candles," Helena told you, walking into the bathroom and shutting the door, "now you can be even more relaxed". She had brought the candles that usually were in your living room, and lit them with a lighter she brought in.
"Thank you. The bath is almost ready," you said, testing out the temperature with your hand. She dipped her foot in, her hand resting on your shoulder for balance.
"It's fine for me". She undressed, tossing her nightgown and panties aside. You watched her closely, not even wanting to blink. You didn't care how many times you saw this sight; you couldn't get enough. She stepped in the tub, then moved so she was sitting down.
"Coming?" she asked, her voice cocky. She knew exactly the power she had over you. Almost, you thought in your head.
"Now I really don't have a choice," you teased out loud, "you're way too attractive and I have no choice but to do whatever you say".
She smirked, watching you take off your oversized shirt. "That's what I like to hear". You rolled your eyes, which only made her laugh. You were close enough to the bath, so she reached out and pulled your panties down your legs. You stepped out of them and kicked them aside, then joined her, sitting on her lap.
"I'm really glad you're home today," she said, wrapping her hands around your waist and pulling you close so she could rest her head on your shoulder.
"Me too," you snuggled into her body, "I missed this". She hummed in agreement, and slowly started to move one of her hands from your waist to in between your legs. You let out a low moan as she grazed your folds wither heat featherlight fingers.
"That feels good, baby?" she asked, her seductive voice sending shivers down your spine.
"God, I want you so badly," you told her, your voice breathless at her touch.
"I want you to look me in the eye," she commanded. You turned around, straddling her waist with your legs. She brushed your hair out of your face, making you blush. "That's my pretty girl," she praised, kissing your forehead softly.
You kissed her lips passionately, feeling her hands on your waist. You wrapped your arms around her neck, holding her close. You kissed until you were breathless, and her fingers moved back down to your heat. You threw your head back as she thrust her first finger deep inside of you. She smirked at your reaction, beginning to massage your thigh with her other hand.
She added a second finger, curving it deep along with the other one. You moaned out her name.
"Only I can make you feel like that, isn't that right?" she asked, her voice dripping seduction.
"Yes Hellie, only you," you agreed, speaking in between moans. You felt a third finger inside of you, and you clutched her shoulders, scratching them with your nails. She gasped out at the sensation.
You opened your mouth to apologize, but she put a finger over your mouth.
"Hush, deary. I like it," she told you with a smirk. You arched your back as her movements got faster, and she made you feel like you were dying a hundred ecstatic deaths, in the best way possible.
"Oh Hellie," you moaned, and she moved closer to kiss your neck.
"That's my good girl," she praised.
Once you finished, you snuggled into her chest, and she kissed the top of your head.
"The waters getting cold. Ready to get out?" she asked a couple of minutes later. You agreed, stepping out of the tub and then holding out your hand for her. "Thanks, my love," she said, kissing you once she got out, "I'll go get us robes. I'm so glad we have the whole day to relax".
You smiled. "Me too, baby".
You blew out the candles, and she came back a moment later. You put on the robe she gave you, which was one of hers.
She giggled. "You look so cute in my clothes".
You blushed. "Not as cute as you," you took her hand, "come on, I want to order food".
You were sitting on the couch together a little while later, going through Netflix.
"What about Notting Hill?" you asked as you passed the title.
"I love that movie," she agreed, and you put it on. You snuggled into her, and she held you close in her arms. You watched the movie in silence for a little bit, just happy to be with her and feel her next to you.
As you watched the characters fall in love on screen, you looked up at your girlfriend.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked, a blush growing on her cheeks.
"When I used to watch this movie, I could only hope for a romance like this. I just still can't believe I finally have it,".
She kissed your forehead. "I'm not going anywhere. You know I haven't always had the easiest relationships, but things are different with you. I love you, and I know things are going to last".
You smiled. "I love you too".
"This movie is making me miss London," she admitted.
"Me too. I love New York, but London with you is my home now".
"Only a few more weeks of filmed left," she pointed out. A couple of minutes later, her phone rang.
"Who is it?"
"My agent. Pause the movie?" she asked, getting up.
You nodded, pausing it for her. She returned five minutes later.
"You know how I was just saying I missed London?" she asked.
"Yeah".
"My agent wants me there the day after tomorrow. There's a meeting with Netflix. Apparently they might do a spin-off of The Crown and they need all cast members".
"That's exciting!" you said, a huge fan of the show, "how long will you be gone for?"
"Just three days," she told you, setting back on the couch with you. You nodded, happy your time apart wouldn't be too long.
Authors note: still bitter they took Notting Hill off Netflix...
