10 - Assurance

Assurance - a positive declaration intended to give confidence or a promise.

There's a reason why Paige doesn't like the idea of being in a relationship. People might find it hard to believe considering she had multiple of flings for the past few years but watching her parents go through a divorce is one of the reasons why she's afraid to commit. Another reason is that she already knew who she wanted from the very start. Those girls that she took on dates were just her way of trying to forget about her feelings for her best friend as she thought Azzi would never see her anything other than her friend but after learning that she actually feels the same way towards her everything changes. When it comes to Azzi, she's willing to do anything even if it means committing in a relationship and contradict her beliefs.

"Paige, I need to get up. I'm gonna be late." The dark skinned girl tried to move but the long arm that was wrapped on her waist wasn't budging. "Paige, I have to get back on my room and take a shower. Today's the first day of classes and I don't want to be late."

"5 more minutes." The blonde mumbled as she buried her face to the crook of the younger girls neck. Azzi tried to wiggle her way out of her grasp but she tightened her hold of her muttering sleepily beside her.

"You already said that 15 minutes ago."

Sighing, Paige let go of her before peaking at her with one eye. "What time is your lunch break?"

Finally able to propped herself off the bed, Azzi stood up and scanned the room for her phone. "I only have one class this morning and I'll be off by 11." She informed her. "Have you seen my phone?"

Pointing at her table right by her bedroom door, Azzi rushed to check on the time as she turned her phone on. She sighed when she realized she still has enough time to get ready before heading out to her class. Looking back behind her, she watched as Paige propped herself with her arms lazily as she rubbed her eyes, yawning. "I thought your lunch break would be by 10?"

"It was. I just have tutoring sessions for an hour so I have to moved my lunch break at 11." Checking her schedule, Azzi gather her charger and hoodie off the table before heading back to the blonde. She leaned down giving her a soft kiss. Paige snaked her hand on her neck pulling her closer to deepened the kiss but Azzi pulled back smiling. "I have to go. I'll see you later."

Pouting at the sudden loss of contact, Paige protested pulling her back to her. Azzi smirked as she pecked on her awaiting lips. "I need to go now, P."

"Call me when you're done with your classes. I wanna have lunch with you." Paige called after her as she watched her rushing out of her room. She sighed happily, feeling her smile grew bigger as she realized that this is her life now. Sleeping and waking up with Azzi in her arms and sharing sweet kisses throughout the day. She couldn't help but feel lucky that this thing between them was finally coming together.

Shaking her head, she looked on her phone and saw 2 missed calls and a new message from Azzi. Clicking on the message, she laid back down on her bed.

Peanut butter 💗: I'll see u later. 💋

She quickly typed out her reply before checking out who the 2 missed calls were from.

Rolling her eyes, Paige placed her phone back to her nightstand before pulling the blanket over her shoulders and going back to sleep. She was lucky enough that her classes doesn't start until 1 pm that day. Spooning the pillow that Azzi had slept on the night before, she inhaled her scent that was lingering on the sheet and let herself get swept away by the thoughts of the brown eyed girl as she let sleep take over her.
