Despite everything, Chloe really wanted to get to know her better. For a long time, she has realized that she actually cares about this girl. However, Red is very secretive when it comes to her feelings and emotions, so much so that Chloe, who is excellent at reading the intentions and feelings of others, cannot understand her roommate. Although for her it's only a matter of time.

After shopping, she immidiately went to the practice room to exercise some more, because as they say: "Practice makes perfect", which she sticks to. Even though it was already evening, it didn't matter much.

Red was sitting on the terrace and drawing, which was a common habit of hers. She just peeked in to make sure she was okay, that she had her painting lamp on because it was already dark, and left a few snacks on the bed as if she was hungry.

She smiled gently at the sight of her partner and watched for a moment the thoughtful and rhythmic brush movements made by the red-haired girl. She was curious what he was drawing today.

"She's so beautiful" - she blushed at this thought and her heart started beating like crazy.

Chloe admired the girl's beauty for a moment, she was staring at her like at a picture.

A thousand thoughts went through her head then, but she decided she would think about it later.

"Damn what is this feeling..?" - she asked herself before leaving and focusing on the upcoming training.

At that time, Red was in her artistic trance, painting something, or rather someone. Someone who was in her head all day long...

The last strokes of the brush and then putting it away meant the end of the work. With her hand she revealed a portrait, an illustration of Chloe Charming. Red spent a few hours on it and the results are here. The girl was proud of her work, which she placed on the desk. Her heart told her to paint her. That was the moment Red started to trust it.

She turned further towards the room and was surprised when she didn't see a blue-haired girl there. Then her eyes turned to her bed and the little surprise waiting for her there. Without hesitation, she grabbed her bag containing her favorite snacks and drink. So, of course, iced coffee, cookies and caramel peanuts.

There was also a note in the bag, which Red grabbed and began to read:

Hey Red!

I saw you drawing so I decided to leave you something in case you were hungry. Take a break for a while. If you want, you can come to the training hall and see how I practice. I'll be happy to show you some tricks for my next competition. I'm waiting, Princess <33

- Chloe

At this news, Red turned redder than herself.

"And this 'Princess'... oh god, what's happening to me..." Red asked herself, slowly sliding to the floor.

She still wonders what her relationship with Chloe is like. She already notices that he treats her differently than everyone else. She is more delicate and tender in her words where she tells others what she thinks, she is cold and mean. She doesn't know what this girl is doing to her, she doesn't know exactly when love manifests itself and when it is felt, but she hopes that her heart will not disappoint her.

She put down the note, got up, quickly changed and headed towards the hall.

When she was close, she heard the sounds of steel banging and quick footsteps, instantly floating above the surface. She walked closer to the door and through it she saw Chloe during her training. Red watched and followed the blue-haired girl's every move with great admiration.

"She's amazing..." Red thought, unable to stop watching her.

Her blue curls flowed smoothly behind the girl's body, which seemed to already remember where to move. Every move was thought out and precise. The striking technique was also honed over years of training. Everything came together into a perfect whole that was a pleasure to watch. The red-haired girl didn't think that something like this would fascinate her so much, that anyone would have such great admiration for her.

A moment later, the girl took a break. She walked over to the bench, drank some water, wiped her face with a towel, and then headed for the door. When she noticed Red there, she gave her a warm smile that made the red-haired girl's heart beat faster. After a moment, Chloe came to the door.

- Would you like to exercise with me, Red? - she asked, holding a steel sword in one hand and a chestplate in the other

Red looked at her and then at the equipment, then said:

- Sure, Princess. - she replied with her characteristic smirk, and then grabbed the steel tool

Then they both entered the hall that was created for this type of sport. They moved to the designated competition area.

- Move this leg forward first. - Chloe showed what her how to properly make it. - Now, keep your hands like this. - the girl grabbed Red by both wrists, causing the red-haired girl to turn slightly red.

The blue-haired girl moved back slightly to see if Red was already in the right position. Then she put on her chestplate and grabbed her sword.

- Now try to hit me, I'll block you. - she announced and took a defensive position

Red attacked, but Chloe's quick movement made the attack ineffective. The girl immediately remembered how they both fought for the watch. Now she is no longer surprised why the Princess managed to outsmart her so easily.

After several failed attempts, Red finally managed to hit Chloe right in the middle of her armor.

- Ha ha! I finally figured you out Charming! - she jumped with excitement, she was extremely proud of herself

Chloe stood there for a moment, giggling to herself.

- Well done, you did it, Princess. - she congratulated the red-haired woman and then took off her equipment.

Red did the same and wanted to get closer to Chloe, but...

In one second, she tripped over a protruding piece of mat and fell straight onto the girl.

They both lay on the floor, looking into each other's eyes. They weren't really in a hurry to get up from there. Chloe's cheeks immediately turned red while Red's heart was pounding like crazy. Their lips were inches away, Chloe looked at the princess's eyes and then at her lips. The blue haired girl moved even closer to Red's face. She didn't mind, in fact she kind of wanted Chloe to do it. They were so close to each other that they could feel the tension growing between them. Red could clearly feel Chloe's breath on her lips. When they were about to connect...

Suddenly the lights in the hall went off and the hall staff closed the facility.

The girls immediately moved away from each other. Red stood up with Chloe, then gave her a hand to help her stand up.

- What happened? - Red asked with concern in her voice

Chloe dusted herself off and said,

- The staff closes the hall for the night. We have to go. - as she said, so they did

When they returned to the room, they talked for a moment about school, Chloe's future training and plans. None of them started a conversation about the situation from the arena. Chloe was too shy and Red didn't really know how she felt or what to think about it.

After an hour they finished, each of them was getting ready for bed. As Red entered the bathroom, Chloe threw herself on the bed and began to think.

„I think I fell in love with Red..."
