"Vi, shh! You're gonna wake up Powder!" You whispered, loudly. Shushing the pink haired girl with a finger pressed against your lips while you laughed quietly.
The girl in front of you on the bed gave your shoulder a light shove, laughing to herself.
"Says you, dummy! You're being just as loud." She also whispered.
You shoved her shoulder back, giggling to yourself when she retaliated, causing a shoving competition between the two of you.
You both stopped abruptly at the sound of Mylo groaning in his sleep from the couch.
It was quiet for a few minutes, before you both busted out in quiet laughter.
In the midst of your shared laughing, you both had closed your eyes.
Opening your own, you watched as Vi let out a few more quiet chuckles, then opened her eyes as well.
You both stared at eachother, laying on your sides with your hands tucked beneath your heads.
Her face took on a wistful look as she stared at you, her eyes flickering from yours to your lips every so often.
You moved your head slightly forward, letting it rest against hers, as you stared into her ice blue eyes.
Your eyes moved across her face, scanning each freckle that dotted her cheeks and nose, the squish of her right cheek as it rested against the back of her bandaged hand, the way her lips parted as she stared at you, and the scar on the top of said lips.
You looked into her eyes again.
"You're really pretty..." You mumbled.
Her spotted cheeks flushed a soft pink as she stared at you, giving your shoulder another shove, although this one was lighter.
"Shut up..." She said, quietly.
You smiled, and pecked the tip of her nose, making her cheeks flush more.
"Stop it." She whined.
"Why?" You teased. "I just wanna give my girlfriend the love she deserves."
"Well I just want my girlfriend to stop teasing me, and to kiss me for real." She pouted
You grinned.
"I can do that."
You leaned forward more and softly pressed your lips to hers, to which she responded in kind.
The kiss was short and sweet, and you both pulled away after about two seconds.
She stared into your eyes for a few moments, before sitting up and climbing over you, jumping off of the top bunk and onto the hardwood floor.
You sat up as well, turning and looking at her in confusion.
"What are you doing, Vi?"
She brushed off her pants, turning to you.
"C'mon, let's go to the roof." She said.
Shrugging, you jumped off the bed as well, glancing back to make sure Powder hadn't woken up, which she didn't, and followed Vi.
She led you out of the backroom, and through The Last Drop, being careful of creaky floorboards or tables.
It seemed Vander had closed up hours ago, and was probably asleep in his own room at this point, so you both had to be quiet, or you risked getting in major trouble.
Vi snuck both of you out a side door, and climbed up the drain pipe leading to the roof, helping you up as well.
Once you both made it, you walked over to the edge and sat next to eachother, legs dangling above the ground below.
You leaned against Vi, resting your head on her shoulder, staring at the stuffed bunny caught in the electrical wire.
Vi leaned her head on top of yours, following your gaze.
"I still remember the day that happened." She said, quietly. "I was so upset, I think I might've cried for hours." Her hand found yours, intertwined both of your fingers together.
You closed your eyes and leaned more into her side, taking in her warmth.
"I remember when we were kids and you came to my house sobbing about it. I don't think I'd ever seen you that sad."
Vi pressed a kiss to the top of your head, humming softly to herself.
You looked up at her through your eyelashes.
"So, have you heard anything else about that tip from Ekko?" You asked.
Vi shrugged, shaking her head.
"Nah, I just know it's some rich asshole Topsider. Ekko apparently followed him to his apartment, and gave me the address. We're gonna go tomorrow morning."
You nodded, squeezing her hand.
"Well, if we wanna wake up early enough we should get to bed." You said, removing yourself from her side and standing up.
Vi jumped up as well, both of you making your way back to the room in order to sleep
You let Vi get into the top bunk first before climbing up beside her and getting under the blanket.
You turned to where your back was facing her as she wrapped her arms around your waist, resting her head against your shoulders.
Pressing a kiss to the back of your neck, both you and her slowly fell off to sleep.
