The Assylum's Monster

C18: Girl Sleepover

In Rachel's bedroom, the two girl friends were watching a TV show.

" So, Khaleesi's real name is Daenerys Targaryen? " Anais asked.

Rachel nodded.

" Yeah, Khaleesi is just the title the Dothraki people gave her when she married Khal Drogo. She's basically their queen. " She explained.

Squinting her eyes at the screen, Anais pointed at a muscular man talking on the screen.

" Why does he look like Arthur Curry? "

" Who? "

The white-haired girl swallowed a sip of 7UP diet and stood up. Pointing hurriedly at the same long-haired man, she shouted:

" Him! " She sat down on Rachel's mattress. " He looks like Aquaman. " She stated.

After some observations, Rachel' mouth opened in shock.

" It can't be! But the actor's name is Jason Momoa! "

" Fake name? " Anais deduced.

" Fake name. " Rachel agreed, eating another piece of popcorn, fascinated.

The older girl waited for the credits of the episode to roll before stopping the show and turning towards the youngest.

" So... " Rachel teased. " How are things between Jason and you? "

Embarrassed, Anais tried to switch the conversation around:

" How are things with Garfield? "

" Stop it! " Rachel chuckled, annoyed. " You're always doing that! " She complained.

" Do what? " She tried to pretend, only to be hit on her face by a pillow.

" You always deny or change the subject. You never give me any details! " She whined.

Anais sighed. Not knowing what to say or do, she stayed silent for a minute to manage her own thoughts.

" I don't know... " She confessed. " I mean... I do like our friendship, but I still feel like there's something missing. "

" That's love, Ana. " Seeing her shrug, she asked her: " You want to be more than just friends, right? "

" Yeah... I just don't want to ruin everything. " She admitted. " I love the way he touches and comforts me when I'm sad. Which has happened, I must admit, a lot of times now. " She blurted, blushing wildly. " I seriously have no idea why he keeps me by his side... I'm such a wreck! " She said mainly talking to herself.

Rachel hearing her whining, couldn't help the frown from growing on her forehead.

" Are you serious, right now? It's so obvious he likes you too. "

" Yeah, 'likes me' as a friend, Rachel, nothing more. "

" Do you think he would sleep with you because he 'likes' you? "

" Well, he 'likes' the sex as much as me, if not more. "

" Oh, my god, you're so oblivious, it's sickening! " Rachel whined, falsely trying to suffocate herself with a pillow.

Pulling it away from her face, Rachel took Anais by the shoulders, shaking her desperately.

" He does it and enjoys it because he's having sex with YOU! " She all but yelled.

Anais quickly pushed the pillow back onto Rachel's face. Shutting her up.

" Shush, or someone will hear! " She warned her half-sister, embarrassed.
