amaya is mute in this one.. i've never personally dealt with someone that's mute but i did a chapter like this on one of my previous books and everyone enjoyed it soo. the beginning was just a little bit of a backstory and how they met.
-----
amaya had been mute since she was little, maybe ten years old. she wasn't completely mute however, just didn't say much at all. she found it a struggle to have friendships and relationships with her being mute as everyone would be talking and they didn't understand why she didn't, even after she explained to them she's mute.
this made her stay to herself, not wanting to have to explain herself and get backlash. this was how she was for years, until she met selene. selene was also pretty quiet, but you could tell she opened up more when you got to know her.
one day in school the teacher switched their seating arrangements, having them sit together. as selene walked in and found her seat she sat and smiled at the blond.
"good morning." selene said softly, flashing a warm smile. amaya only gave a soft wave and smile, taking in how pretty she was. the blond didn't know what her sexuality was, she'd never even been in a relationship. but she did know that she found girls a lot more attractive than guys.
"oh, aren't you mute?" the brunette said while turning back to amaya. her smile dropped a little, nodding her head softly while looking away. this is when a lot of the conflict happened with most people she met.
"oh, that's okay.. how about i give you my snapchat and you can text me, if you need help or have questions." her smile returned, nodding softly. selene pulled out her phone and allowed amaya to scan her snap code before receiving a message from her.
i like your phone case (:
oh, thank you! i got it for my birthday
the blond could only smile towards selene, resting her phone down on her lap. the class went on day after day, the two shooting eachother little messages or drawing on the others paper to get their attention. it seemed selene was the only that understood her. she realized how simple making friends could be with the right person.
~~~
now it's been five years since they met, four long years of friendship and one heavenly year in a relationship. they took care of each other, making sure that the other was always doing what they need to do.
they even came up with their own language, making physical things have specific meaning. they did this as something for while they were in school, when the teacher was talking or when they couldn't simply just pull out their phones. but overtime they found this method easier than getting paper or texting whatever they needed.
selene was sat at her desk, submitting an email she'd forgot to send to her boss earlier. amaya, on the other hand was making some salmon for dinner, rice boiling in a pot while the fish sizzled in a pan.
"smells good." selene cooed while walking into the kitchen, pressing a kiss to the blonds cheek. a gentle kiss was pressed to selenes hand, thank you.
"do you want seaweed with yours?" selene asked while walking to the pantry, turning to watch her nod. she returned back to amaya with two packs of seaweed and sat them on the counter. amaya plated up their food while selene got sriracha, soy sauce and kewpie mayo. they ate quietly together before amaya tapped selenes hand softly.
"yeah?" she cooed, smiling and watching the blond with soft eyes. amaya placed her fingers on the table then imitated them walking. this was a silly one they also made in school, for if one of them got too overwhelmed in class and needed to get out of the class.
"wanna go for a walk?" amaya nodded, looking back down at her plate to take a bite.
"sounds like a good idea." she cooed before taking another bite as well. after they ate they got the kitchen cleaned before they went up to their room to get ready for a walk.
"it's chilly out, you're gonna need a sweatshirt." the brunette said while pulling on her converse. amaya grabbed down two of her sweatshirts, placing one over her lovers shoulder. she reached her hands out and helped selene up from the ground, pressing a kiss to her cheek before pulling on the hoodie.
"is that mine?" selene asked once she noticed what hoodie amaya had on. the blond smirked with a soft nod, pulling the hood over her head.
"you act like you don't have your own hoodies, why do you always take mine?" selene asked while getting her phone and keys from the bed. a soft hand was rubbed against her back, comfy.
"yeah, they are comfy." she hummed, pulling amayas hand into hers. they began their walk by just walking around their neighborhood, pointing out pretty birds and flowers they passed. they saw these birds and flowers almost every time they went for a walk but they still stopped to admire them every time.
"are you cold?" the brunette asked, referring to the rosy cheeks of her lover. she shook her head softly and continued walking, tugging selene behind her.
"your hands are freezing." the brunette laughed softly, pulling amaya to her and held her hands to warm them up. the blond smiled softly, walking with her hands tucked in selenes. they eventually looped back around to their house and immediately selene got some milk going for hot chocolate, feeling the blonds hands creeping up her shirt.
"you're always so cold." selene cooed, flipping around to face the blond that was trying to hide her smile by shoving her head in selenes chest. a soft tug on her sleeve made her hum, sleepy.
"how about you go pick a movie and get the bed nice and comfy, and i'll bring up the hot chocolate." amaya nodded and pressed a kiss to her cheek before disappearing up the steps.
it took selene about ten minutes to get the hot chocolate going and into their favorite mugs, dropping in a few marshmallows before carefully strolling up the stairs. amaya had already picked a movie and dimmed the lights, now switched to her plaid pajama pants with selenes hoodie.
"you did that quick." she smiled, handing amaya a mug before getting on something comfortable as well. once she was in her pajamas she climbed into bed besides amaya, pulling the blond to lay her head on her chest before starting the movie.
