Reputations-Beiguang

Chapter eleven

"I'm so so sorry!" Ningguang exclaims and immediately grips onto the door to close it again. Beidou holds it in place, stopping it. Ningguang was forced to make eye contact. The brunette wasn't completely stripped..but she wasn't wearing a shirt. That was a enough to send Ningguang over the edge.

Beidou shakes her head, "no no it's okay! I'm not naked I promise. You can come in, I'm just finishing up. We're both girls, so it's okay." Ningguang's eyebrow twitches at her statement. Even if we are girls, I don't know you like that! Maybe I'm just making this weird. Her thoughts scramble as she finally walks into the cramped bathroom.

As Beidou changes beside her, she tries her hardest not to look or even make any contact with anything in her direction. Beidou's birthday was the next day and it would be horrible if it was ruined because Ningguang couldn't keep it together. It's just because we haven't seen each other in so long. Yeah! We haven't gotten to know each other so I can't stand looking at her when she's-she's..

Her eyes fall back for a moment, a millisecond even. Oh my god why did I do that? I hate myself. I need to die right now. Her head jumbles more negative thoughts as she tries digging through her makeup bag as quickly as possible. Even when she saw her for only a brief moment, it felt like she could remember every detail.

Beidou wasn't jacked, but she definitely wasn't wimpy either. There was clear muscle on her and clear athleticism in her body type. Like her curves were perfectly molded to fit the aura of her existence. All of that made it worse as Ningguang quickly grabbed her stuff and bursts out the bathroom, closing the door.

As she does, Beidou takes a deep breath and sinks to the floor, her face turning red. I just changed in front of a girl I barely know. A famous and rich one too. Oh no. She buries her head in her knees and holds them together with her hands. It was awkward because she was the one who said it was okay. Maybe it was just to scary to say no too.

After a minute or so, Ningguang finishes doing her makeup outside of the bathroom and hesitates going into the bathroom. This time she knocks gently. "Beidou? You still in there?" she asks, raising her voice so that the woman on the other side can hear. There's a pause before the door opens and Beidou walks out of it, dressed in actual clothing.

"Oh I'm good. Sorry." the brunette laughs it off and walks past her. Ningguang nods and puts the makeup bag back on the counter. Her eyes traces along the bathroom walls, then the mirror. She stares at herself in a bothered expression. The silver haired woman was so good at keeping her composure, but it felt like just even being around Beidou was setting her off.

Her feelings were unpredictable and it was becoming infuriating. Ningguang shuffles the zipper on her bag clothes before paying more attention to her hair. The thoughts never left her mind though. The guilt she was feeling for peeking, the trouble she was having being around Beidou, and the overwhelming sense of comfort she got whenever it was just the two of them.

This feeling had a name. She was horrified to find out what it was. Combing her silky hair to the side, she stared in awe at the section where Beidou stood as she was changing. Her face grew hot at the image that was now burned in her brain. Beidou was, without a doubt, attractive. Hilarious and well rounded, hardly in mischief if it wasn't for a good cause.

She'd always assume that Beidou would find a boyfriend sooner or later. With Valentine's Day just a few hours away, there was bound to be someone who would've have eyes for her the moment she'd walk in. The only difference was that they were alone now. On this vacation trip, only these two and Ningguang's family were along. Ningguang ended up fighting tooth and nail to get them to stay away from Beidou and let her enjoy her birthday. It was exhausting to fight off her mother, but with enough effort it was done.
