Through You - Reneé Rapp

Everyone knows

As the first light of dawn filtered through the curtains, Natasha stirred from her slumber, her senses gradually coming alive to the warmth of the morning sun and the soft rustle of the sheets beside her. Blinking sleepily, she turned to find Reneé nestled beside her, her features softened in the gentle light of morning.

A soft smile tugged at the corners of Natasha's lips as she watched Reneé sleep, her heart swelling with love and gratitude for the woman lying beside her, she missed the blonde girl so much. Gently brushing a lock of hair from Reneé's face, Natasha marveled at the peaceful expression that graced her features, her heart overflowing with a profound sense of contentment.

As Reneé began to stir, her eyes fluttering open to meet Natasha's gaze, a soft smile spread across her lips. "Good morning baby" she murmured, her voice warm with sleep.

"Good morning, beautiful" Natasha replied, her voice filled with tenderness as she leaned in to press a soft kiss to Reneé's forehead.

As Reneé unlocked her phone to see the time, she was met with a flood of messages and notifications that filled the screen, causing her heart to skip a beat. With a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach, she quickly realized what had caused the sudden influx of messages.

Her fingers trembling slightly, Reneé scrolled through the notifications, her breath catching in her throat as she saw the numerous texts and photos that had been sent to her. Images of her and Natasha together flashed across the screen, accompanied by speculative messages from fans and curious onlookers alike.

Glancing over at Natasha, who had noticed the change in her demeanor, Reneé felt a pang of guilt wash over her. She knew that Natasha had been trying to shield herself from the spotlight, and now their private moments together were being broadcast for all to see.

Taking a deep breath, Reneé turned to Natasha, her expression filled with concern. "Nat, I think we need to talk about this" she said softly, her voice tinged with urgency. "There's pictures of us all over social media, and I don't want to ignore it anymore. We need to figure out how to handle this together."

Natasha's heart fluttered with nervous anticipation as she listened to Reneé's words, her mind racing with a myriad of emotions. She knew that their relationship being thrust into the spotlight would inevitably bring challenges, but she also understood the importance of facing them together.

Taking a deep breath to steady her nerves, Natasha met Reneé's gaze with a determined expression. "You're right" she replied, her voice steady despite the butterflies in her stomach. "We can't ignore this anymore. We need to address it head-on, together."

Reneé nooded and scrolled through her phone, her heart pounding with excitement and nervousness as she searched for the perfect photos of her and Natasha. Each image brought back cherished memories of their time together—moments of laughter, tenderness, and unspoken love.

Finally settling on a few favorites, Reneé felt a surge of determination welling up inside her as she composed a caption. With each word carefully chosen, she poured her heart out, expressing her gratitude for the love they shared and the joy of being by Natasha's side.

With a deep breath, Reneé hit the "post" button, her pulse racing as she watched the images and caption appear on her social media feed. As the likes and comments began to pour in, Reneé felt a sense of pride and vulnerability wash over her—a willingness to share their love with the world, no matter the consequences.

Turning to Natasha, who was watching her with a mixture of admiration and support, Reneé smiled, her heart brimming with love. "I hope that's okay with you."

Natasha's eyes sparkled with emotion as she wrapped Reneé in a tight hug, her heart overflowing. "I loved" she whispered, her voice filled with warmth.

Natasha got her phone to see Reneé's post on social media. In one photo, they were locked in a sweet hug, their smiles bright and genuine as they held each other close. Another showed them laughing together, their joy infectious and palpable. Yet another captured a quiet moment of intimacy, their eyes locked in a gaze filled with love and adoration.

Accompanying the photos was a heartfelt caption "Grateful for the moments that take my breath away, and for the person who never fails to make my heart sing❤️✨''

Natasha tapped on the "like" together with a comment, ''You are my muse, my inspiration, and the most precious person I've ever had the privilege to meet. I love you endlessly, my love.'' As she hit "send," she felt a sense of peace wash over her.

As the comments poured in on Reneé's post, Natasha and Reneé were pleasantly surprised to find an overwhelming outpouring of support and love from their fans.

"The way you poured your heart every note, every word—it was like watching magic unfold before my eyes. And the details, the videos behind you of us, the pictures falling, it was all very impressing and inspiring" Natasha continued, her words carrying a warmth that matched the morning sunlight streaming through the window.

"You brought such raw emotion and authenticity to the stage, and it was impossible not to feel every word you sang" Natasha added, her voice tinged with awe.
