Irhaboggle Pride (2022) Gaylor Swift's Version

Hey Stephen, I Think He Knows

The student body of Silas University was surprised when Carmilla and Laura were spotted roaming campus together. Even though precious few of them knew about the rivalry the two roommates used to have, the handful that knew Carmilla knew she wasn't usually a very sociable person, and yet here she was now, out and about, perusing campus with Laura by her side.

The two were chatting up a storm, or rather, Laura was. She was a mix of a flustered gay mess and someone trying desperately to impress her girlfriend by talking about anything and everything, hoping that something good might eventually come out of her mouth. Carmilla was content to just walk quietly along and listen to her little sundance shine on like the little ball of light that she was.

Funnily enough, Carmilla wasn't the only one thinking about her partner as a little ball of light. Even though Laura was blabbering on and on, she was still thinking about Carmilla the entire time as well, only half paying attention to her own thoughts and words.

Hey, darling, I know looks can be alarming, but I know I saw a light in you...And as we walked, we were talking, I didn't say half the things I wanted to. Sure, Laura was talking a million miles an hour, but there was still so much she wanted to tell Carmilla, so much that she was still a little too nervous to say out loud...

Carmilla's mind ran a similar track. Of all the girls tossing rocks at your window, I'll be the one waiting there even when it's cold! She smirked to herself. That's right, Xena, keep on moving! Maybe she had Laura's heart in the first half, but Carmilla was the one who was there even in the cold and dark, until the very end. She was the one Laura chose, and now her darling creampuff had her falling. Falling into Laura was so much better than falling into that blasted Pit! And now, Carmilla no longer had to be alone.

Not only were she and Laura dating, but just in general, Laura reminded Carmilla of what it meant to have someone worth fighting for, and what it meant to have someone she could turn to whenever she needed a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on. After centuries of holding back her feelings, Carmilla had so many things to say to Laura. She'd seen it all, or so she thought, but she'd never seen somebody shine the way Laura did. From the very first day, when she was so determined to find her missing roommate, Betty, to when she dared to challenge the Demon in the Pit... Laura wasn't just the sunshine, she was a firebrand!

It's beautiful, wonderful, don't you ever change! Hey, darling, after all of our quarreling, you are now the one who stops my pain.

Now, as Carmilla gave Laura a side-glance, she couldn't help but think how much Laura looked like an angel. It didn't help that the sun made the top of her golden hair shine like a halo. But Carmilla would've kissed her rain or shine. Laura, of course, felt the same way. As she and Carmilla continued to wander aimlessly around together, Laura kept trying to find the perfect opportunity to grab Carmilla's hand.

Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you! Can't help it if there's no one else! No, I can't help myself... Laura was sure Carmilla was doing it on purpose now, the way her hips swayed as they walked along, her casual and cool expression...

Her footprints on the sidewalk lead to where I can't stop, I go there all the time! And when they took a brief respite at one of the cafes on campus, watching Carmilla wrap her hand around a cold glass made Laura want to know that body as if it were hers.

Man, lucky straw... Laura sighed as she watched Carmilla suck the contents up and out of her cup. It was still a little off-putting to know that she was drinking blood, but hey, part of love meant embracing each other's quirks. And the blood was all taken and sold consensually, so Laura couldn't really complain. Carmilla just had that sexy look no matter what she was doing, and Laura was a huge fan.
