Catra had decided to head out and go to the kitchen to "steal food" but said that she won't be returning for the next hour or so

So you went to grab the playing deck off the table and sat back down in your made up fortress with two blankets and a stick before handing them to Adora to shuffle

"Good thing Bow knows how to play" Adora mumbled, a sly grin appearing on her face as she remembered the memory, her gaze still focused on the deck

"I know right? Who would have thought it would be him out of all people"

Adora handed you the cards and you frowned. So much for winning, this was a shit bet. Like, the universe couldn't have given you worse cards than these. They were like the worst ones that no one wanted. I think you get the point by now

You watched Adora carefully for any indication about what cards she had gotten. She had a good poker face you had to admit, but it was all written out in her body language

She leaned forward slightly, her fingers lightly almost mindlessly rubbing against her arm as she looked quizingly over at them, the look you recognized when something was up and she couldn't figure out what her next move should be

"You don't have good cards do you?" You raised an eyebrow at the blonde, eyebrows slightly tense as you awaited her response

"Not telling"

"Oh come on pleeease"

"Y/n that's not how you play and you know it"

You sighed "Ok fine sorry"

You started the game soon and you were practically defeated from her first move. It took a total of 30 seconds before Adora slammed the cards on the bed, a big grin on her face

"I win!"

"Yeah yeah only because I have a shit load of cards otherwise you would be dead by now"

Adora snored and crossed her arms, her victorious face still holding on strongly "I still win tho"

You glared at Adora, pouting a bit without even realising it which made her laugh "Aww you're cute when you are mad"

"Come on princess you know you don't mind"

You rolled your eyes at her cockiness and stuck your tongue out "Whatever"

Adora chuckled and took your wrists, tucking you towards her to smirk in your face "Don't be mad darling"

"That's my line"

"It's mine now" she lowered her voice, her smirk stretching into a grin and you could feel her getting even more riled up "Deal with it"

"I want a rematch it totally wasn't fair" You pursed your lips and tried to make your point known by pointing to her chest and poking her with a grin on your own. Who knew this could be so fun "And I will win"

"You're such a sore looser it's adorable"

"Wha- take that back" You narrowed your eyes, still keeping the playful glint in your eyes as you motioned with your head towards her

"Like I would"

"Yes, you would or I will make you Adora"

You didn't even register your words after they slipped past your mouth, your voice  stern as you locked eyes and tried to come on top of the argument. Was it even an argument anymore?

"I-"

Adora didn't respond. You wondered why

You were about to ask why she wasn't talking until you saw her look down, only then did you follow her gaze to see that in the heat of the moment you had somehow gotten on top of her, pressing her wrists down against the soft bed
