Jealousy, Jealousy~ Kate Bishop

a little bit of my gamer!kate au that's published on my tumblr :)

The incessant clicks of the buttons coming from Kate's controller were driving you insane.

Hiding your head under your blankets, you groaned loudly, not that your girlfriend could hear you with her headset on.

Every day since she had gotten her new game, the same thing had been happening.

She'd stay up all night gaming, coming to bed after you had gotten up in the morning. The only exception was when she had to go on missions, then she would go to bed at a reasonable time.

Claiming it was because she had a slightly less busy schedule, she promised that she would return to a slightly more normal routine soon enough.

Unfortunately, you didn't believe her.

Kate often struggled to stick to her word, usually when it came to small things, so it didn't bother you too much. However, it still caused you to occasionally doubt her whenever she made a promise.

You huffed, "Kate?"

No reply.

Getting out of bed, you walked over to her standing in front of her with a frown upon your face.

"Hi, baby," she smiled at you, leaning to the side so she could still see the screen behind you.

"I miss you," you pouted.

"I miss you too," she giggled.

It was difficult to be annoyed with her when she was so sweet and adoring.

"Then come snuggle," you whined slightly, knowing her answer would be no.

"I'm almost finished my game though," she looked at you sadly.

" But we've barely spent any time together recently," you stared at the floor beneath you.

"I'm sorry," she sighed.

"Don't be," you shook your head.

"But I feel bad," she told you.

She always told you she felt bad, but never did anything about it. It was infuriating in a way, but you realised very early on in your relationship that Kate needed direct communication as she wasn't good at picking up on hints, no matter how much detail you included.

"So come to bed, all you do is play on your playstation and it's not fair. The console isn't your girlfriend, I am," you took a step closer to her, tears threatening to spill from your eyes.

"Oh, honey. Are you jealous of my playstation?" she giggled, pulling you onto her lap, pausing her game.

"Well you spend all of your free time on it," you didn't dare make eye contact with her due to the embarrassment from being jealous of an inanimate object.

"I promise I will always love you the most, and I'm sorry I haven't been spending time with you," she picked you up, carrying you into the kitchen and setting you down on the island.

"It's okay, you don't have to apologise, I'm the one who should be sorry. I'm so stupid for-"

"Nope, none of that," she interrupted you, kissing you softly.

She began to walk around the kitchen, preparing two mugs of hot chocolate before turning on your favourite film in the living room.

Carrying you in, she held you tight as you lay on the couch securely in her arms.

"I love you, much more than I love my stupid playstation," she giggled, kissing all over your face until you were laughing with her.
