Narrator POV:
Catra was angry but not sure at who. After coming home, ignoring her mothers question if everything was okay, she fell into bed with an audible "URGHHH"
"Are...you okay?" her mom asked worried, standing in the still open door to her room
"....no"
"Wanna talk about it?"
"...no...."
"Hmm okay, just tell me if yo.."
"I JUST DON'T GET IT" she shouts suddenly, flipping around on the bed while pressing her Pillow on her Face "Why am I like this? Is she just playing? Did she plan this? Why did I feel like I had no other choice? Why did it feel so fucking perfect? Whyyyyyyyyy?" she moaned, letting out all the frustration the newfound feelings caused inside of her
"Is this about school...or a Girl?" her mom asked
"..... the later" Catra took the pillow off her Face and continued to stare at the ceiling "I ...just don't get her"
"She talks a lot for someone who doesn't want to talk about it" Sofia thought as she sat down on the bed, remaining silent
"One moment she is annoying, then amusing and fun to be around and suddenly...just so damn pretty"
"Oh, how pretty are we talking here? Like "i'd like to look like her" pretty or "I wanna drag her to the nearest hotel" pretty?"
"MOM!? THE FUCK?"
"What? You think you exist because I've been celibate? I know how it feels when you want to be with someone and straight or gay ain't so different in that aspect"
"...still, ew. I don't know...we kind of just became friends and I feel like i'm doing something she doesn't even want"
"....okay we need to talk about consent, it seems"
"No we don't, wtf? Of course i'd never do anything like that...she provoked me tonight...and now I kind of regret kissing her that's all"
"Did she...react in a bad way?"
"...n-no?" Catra had pushed the thought out of her head but hearing her mother ask this, brought the moment when Adora closed her Eyes back into her mind " I mean she...did kiss back"
"....aha and the problem is..what exactly?" Sofia asked, scratching her head
"That's what i'm saying, I DON'T KNOW!"
"Don't shout at me, Mija"
"Sorry, Ugh...I need a smoke and then i'm going to bed"
"Do that..but take your time to think about what you're gonna do with her. Don't just assume that she knows everything or has it all figured out. Chances are, she is just as lost as you right now"
"Yeah...maybe"
"Good night, Catarina"
"hmm... night, Mom...and thanks for letting me vent"
"Any time" Sofia answered with a smile before closing the door
While Catra was facing questions that would keep her from sleeping for a few more hours, Adora was already long asleep, dreaming of her Wedding. A beautifully decorated Cathedral in the middle of nowhere, Milena making sure that the catering was perfect, Glimmer and Bow arguing about how they would have done it, her Father looking at her with actual pride for a change, her Mother sober and wiping away Tears of happiness while a Priest went on and on about this and that. Adora should have been afraid, panicked even but remained calm and collected, not a shred of fear inside of her "Wait...why would I be okay with this?" she thought and looked at who was standing at her side....no one "Ha, no Cedric, that's a relief..."
