"stop you're getting water everywhere!" billie shouts as i wash my face, i scoff as i fill my hands with water and chuck it at her.

"take that!" i laugh and she doesn't look very impressed as she blows up her cheeks with her toothbrush in her mouth.

she tries at keep her laughter at bay but fails. she walks over to my next to the sink, the smile on her face which is intoxicating.

the glint in her eyes as she looks into mine is the only thing i can think about before something soaking wet hits my face.

she laughs at the wet t-shirt falls to the floor.

"you really wanna do this?" i tilt my head at her.

"yeah, you're not gonna win."

"okay, so come here." i put my hands on her waist and pull her closer. she gasps in shock, we are inches apart.

she looks at me confused, "whose gonna give in first, b?" the realisation hits her face.

"i hate you." she whispers as she smiles.

"really?" i taunt her as i put one of my hands on her jawline, pushing her head upwards. i kiss along her neck, as my hand lowers with my kisses as my hand hold her neck.

i can feel her heart racing beneath my hands as i stop at her tank top strap. i rise back up to her level, her cheeks bright red as she breathes heavily.

she shakes her head at me as i pull her even closer to me.

"i guess i lose." i say as just before i kiss her sweetly.

i pull away, as she laughs but she pulls me in desperate for something more. the breath taste like the mint of her toothpaste as i feel her smile into my lips.

"we should really go to sleep billie."
i whisper.

"come with me tomorrow—" she pauses inbetween as she looks into my eyes. "—please. i know you're busy with working on your—"

"—billie. of course i'll be there." i interrupt her as she begins to speak.

"selene, you know what i love about you?" she tilts her head at me.

"what?"

"how you let me finish my senten—"

"you love something about me?!" i cut her off.

"i hate you."

"really?" she hums as i squeeze her waist. i let go of her and walk out of the bathroom.

"ze! wait up!" i hear her call behind me, i laugh as i hear her skittle around after me.

i love not having the constant need to look at my phone when i'm around her

i love not having the constant need to look at my phone when i'm around her.

she's got her guitar in her lap as she strums the instrument, i'm laying down across her bed just watching her.

"you staring makes me feel weird." she says as she looks at me like she's embarrassed at her confession.

i don't say anything as i just continue to stare at her. she kicks me in the leg and i laugh,

"stop it!"

i look away and throw my arms around my head as that goes into the duvet. it feels so weird to be away from my computer screen in the dark, i feel so alone when i'm sitting there in that chair.

i really try to write happy things, but i've ran out.

no i'm not saying that, billie doesn't make me happy. it's just so much darkness in my life, i need an escape.

the nightmares are back but i'm going to tell anyone they'll just put me back on my meds. then i can't feel anything, at all. i'm just a dead girl waking.

"hey, what you thinking about?" she kicks me lightly.

"oh nothing."

"selene. tell me."

"it's really nothing, billie." i deadpan at her and i can see her face drop at my words.

"okay." the whisper leaves her mouth broken. then the guitar hums as rests her arm on it to hold her head.

as she looks at the bed, i look at her.

i push myself on to my knees in-front of her. as i gently hold the hand which is holding the thin end of the guitar.

i reach over and grab my sparkly notepad from billies side table. the silence in the room is screaming through my ears.

"i'm always here from you, you know that right?" she looks at me like her words are a promise, one with a lock and key. she's given me that key and i won't ever unlock it.

"i know, always."

and i mean it.

she lets go of the guitar as it falls it's her lap with a strum. her hands end up on my shoulder, which run up my neck. tilting my head back as i bring my hands up to touch hers.

when i look level with her she's right there, she pulls me in with my cheeks but she doesn't kiss me. our foreheads meet, the glitter in my stomach seems to sparkle.

if i could die in this moment i'd be so content.

"that stupid smile." she says as i realise i've been smiling like an idiot.

"yeah, you're just stupid." i smirk at my comment and she just shakes her head with that smile on her face. "and i love you. i love everything. i love you."

she just stares at me, her cheeks red.

"now get on with your stupid song." i kiss her briefly twice then on her cheek before i fall back onto the bed with the notebook in my hand.

the guitar starts to strum in a tune as i try to write anything. but i get distracted by billies singing,

but you're all it takes for me to break a promise,
silly me to fall in love with you.

she sighs as she finishes the few lines, as she scribbled down in her notebook. she mumbles,

"but right now in this moment..." then the silence takes over as she bites down on her own. then i hear her voice as she figures out the lyric.

i've been loved before,
but right now in this moment
i feel more and more that like i was made for you.

"you sound beautiful." i say as i look from the note book.

"hey! you're not meant to
listening!"

"sorry, sorry!"

"motherfucker." she breathes.
