The morning sun streamed through the curtains, casting a warm glow across Beth's room. As Vivianne stirred, she couldn't help but blush when she realized the position they were in. They had fallen asleep together on the same bed, and Beth was nestled against her in a content slumber.

Vivianne, feeling a mixture of embarrassment and amusement, softly pulled Beth off of her. Her friend let out a whine of protest as she was moved, which made Vivianne chuckle. Beth's playful spirit was a source of constant joy in her life.

With Beth still in a deep sleep, Vivianne quietly slipped out of the bed, her movements careful so as not to wake her friend. She moved to the bathroom to freshen up, taking a moment to reflect on the events of the past few days.

As she stood under the warm spray of the shower, Vivianne's thoughts couldn't help but drift toward Beth. She recalled the way Beth's dimples appeared when she smiled, the sound of her laughter, and the way she said Vivianne's name with such genuine warmth.

The depth of her feelings for Beth was undeniable, and the connection between them had evolved into something more profound than friendship. Vivianne couldn't ignore the undeniable truth that she had feelings for her teammate and dear friend.

With a smile on her face and a blush on her cheeks, Vivianne continued her morning routine, her thoughts filled with the possibilities of what the future might hold. The complexities of her emotions were a source of both excitement and uncertainty, and she couldn't help but wonder what lay ahead in the journey of her heart.

Vivianne stepped out of the shower, wrapped in a towel, her skin still flushed from the warm water. She couldn't help but feel a blush creep up her cheeks as she entered the room, not expecting to encounter Beth quite so soon.

As her friend caught sight of her in the towel, Beth's eyes widened playfully. "Well, well, look who's here. Vivianne, you're smoking hot."

Vivianne's cheeks grew even warmer as she shyly covered herself up a bit more, her towel pulled tighter. She couldn't help but chuckle, despite her embarrassment. "Beth, you're too much."

Beth, always one to add humor to any situation, grinned mischievously. "I mean it, Viv. You've got nothing to be shy about. You're beautiful just the way you are."

Beth's words were genuine and supportive, and Vivianne appreciated her friend's encouragement. She knew that Beth's intent was to help her feel more confident about herself, and it warmed her heart.

With a hint of a smile, Vivianne responded, "Thanks, Beth. You always know how to make me feel better."

Beth's playful teasing had transformed into a moment of heartfelt encouragement, a reminder that the bond between them was a source of unwavering support. Vivianne knew that, with Beth by her side, she could navigate the complexities of her emotions and find confidence in her own skin.
