"But just know I'll wait. I'll wait for you to come back to me. Even if it's forever, even if it's in another life, I'll wait for you."

Violet aggressively gnawed at her bottom lip as she ruffled through her closet. She was desperately trying to find something appropriate to wear to meet someone's dad on the day their mom passed away and she was coming up with absolutely nothing.
Her whole closet consisted of lace or cropped tops, ripped jeans, shorts, tights and large sweatshirts. She had nothing she could wear.
"Violet?"
Violet turned her head to see Angelica standing in her doorway staring at the mess Violet had made of her closet with wide eyes. Angelica was already dressed, wearing a black sweater tucked into a skirt that stopped above her knees and her gold jewellery tying the whole outfit beautifully.
"Angie," Violet responded, a whine leaving her mouth without her permission and she couldn't stop the pout forming on her face as she plopped on the ground. "I don't know what to wear!"
Angelica approached her and crouched down so she could look into her eyes. "You can wear anything you want, there's no need to stress yourself out, sweetheart."
Violet felt a blush crawl to her cheeks at the term of endearment that Angelica used. She felt a memory of the first night they met flash in her mind, the only other time Angelica had used such a term and she swallowed.
"But-but parents never like me when they meet me and I really want your dad to like me," Violet mumbled as she looked down at the floor and Angelica grasped her chin to tilt her head back up and gave her a small comforting smile.
"My dad will love you. I never had many friends and I've never brought anyone home so he'll be very happy to meet you." Angelica assured before grabbing Violet's hands and pulling her up.
She started leading Violet out of her bedroom by the hand and into the one across the hall. When they entered Angelica's room Violet looked around with wide curious eyes. The room had the same layout as hers, but her comforter was dark red and so were her pillows and Violet smiled. "Is red your favourite colour?"
"Yeah," Angelica replied with a grin before opening her closet doors. Violet peeked inside and her eyes widened at the huge amount of clothes that were there. Most of them were suits and tops that Angelica wore under her suit jacket but she also had a ton of fall coats and pyjamas that Violet had never seen.
"Why haven't I seen you in any of these since I moved in?" Violet asked her fingers reaching for a white nightgown and Angelica shrugged nonchalantly but there was a visible flush to her cheeks. "They're kinda...."
"Hot?" Violet grinned and finished the sentence for her roommate when she couldn't and they both laughed softly before Angelica pulled something out of her wardrobe and handed it to Violet.
"Here, you can wear this. It might fall to your ankles since you're shorter than me but it should fit," Angelica said and Violet glanced down at the simple black dress in her hands and she scrunched up her nose.
