University of Connecticut, Storrs, Connecticut𝗕𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 that was heavily under appreciated in this day and age. The peace and quiet of your surroundings, dictating your own day without having others interfering. It was something that Leilani had grown more and more fond of the older that she got. She loved her friends more than anything, but being in the comfort of her bed, alone with a good movie and her dog was an unmatched feeling.
She had microwaved some popcorn, the bowl warm in her lap as she looked at the TV in front of her, watching intently at Beauty and the Beast, one of her favorite live action productions. She shamelessly hummed along to Be Our Guest, finding utter enjoyment in the music that filled her ears.
Her day had been fairly uneventful. She had went to the gym at the earliest hour of the day, immediately following it up with her one and only class of the day. Being in a lecture hall at eight in the morning every Wednesday wasn't very ideal, but it allowed time for her day to be spent resting.
Hearing her phone ring was what caused her attention to be pulled away from the flatscreen. She picked up the phone, smiling at the contact name before pressing the green accept button.
"I miss you."
The three words brought a heavy blush onto Leilani's skin. The girl on the other phone's voice raspy as it echoed through her ears, playing over and over again like a broken record.
Leilani was nervous, too nervous to even notice the lack of response from her own voice.
"Um, can I come over? I want to see you." Shyanne spoke into the phone.
"Uh ye-yeah. Sure." She was genuinely enthusiastic, though her stutter may have contradicted that. She looked around her room, knowing that while her apartment was clean her room was a mess. She stood up once the call was over, bushing clothes and PR boxes around the room with the time she had left.
The solidarity that Leilani enjoyed herself in only lasted for so long until she heard a knock on her apartment door. Mocha immediately ran from her spot on the floor and to the front door. The patter of her feet followed by the scratching in the door made the girl chuckle.
"Aight bro relax." She said, shooing her away from the door before opening it.
Within a matter of seconds, Shyanne's arms met Leilani's waist, her lavender scent filling Leilani's nose and the warmth making her feel wildly comfortable. The thought of being held the way she was, as delicately as she was, made Leilani feel so safe. She enjoyed Shyanne's presence more and more in the days the spent together.
The two laid in bed together, Shyanne's head rested on Leilani's stomach, her thumb tracing patterns on her hip as she softly pinched the skin there. Leilani looked down at the girl, instantly feeling hot at the act of intimacy.
