BETWEEN OUR LIPS. paige bueckers

"Paige Madison Bueckers!" Kai shouts out from the hallway. KK, Ice, and Azzi freeze up and look at Paige who looked scared shitless. KK turns to the live, "p boogers is in trouble..." she whispers to the live as Paige flicks her head before jumping up and getting out of arms reach of the girl.

Kai makes her presence known as the door creaks open, right where Paige was standing. "Why did you eat all my food!?" She asks with a pointed finger making the blonde back up and into the frame of the live. "It was KK!" Paige says quickly and points at KK. KK gasps at the betrayal before trying to cover her ass.

"Paige ate it too!" KK defends and tries to turn it back onto Paige. Kai rolls her eyes at the two children bickering back and forth. "Enough! I'm literally only teasing." Kai says with a loud laugh. Paige lets out a sigh before Kai plops down next to KK.

KK reads out loud before processing it, Kai groans and lays down, hitting her head on a table. "Owwwww." Kai groans and Paige is right next her in an instant. "Are you okay?" Paige asks with concern laced in her voice.

Kai gives a quick pout, "yes, P." Kai says while laying her hand on Paige's knee.

"Omg, are Paige and Kai gonna kiss right now?" KK questions, reading the comment from the live. "Read them in your head first!" Kai scolds and gives KK a flick on the head. KK rubs the spot while giving a snarky look to the girl. Kai gives one back and KK's face drops and eyes widen as she looks back at the live. "Scary."

Kai fakes a gasp before turning her attention to Paige, "game coming up, how are you feeling?" Kai questions, taking a piece of Paige's blonde hair between her fingers and playing with it. Paige blushes at the small gesture, it making it seem a lot more intimate than it actually was before answering.

"I don't wanna jinx anything but I feel like we have a good shot at winning this game." Paige says with a smirk of cockiness. Kai snorts at the lame attempt of hiding her cockiness before lightly pulling on her hair that was between her fingers, "don't be too cocky." Kai warns with a grin. Paige nods, matching the girls grin before getting interrupted by KK's loud voice.

"Paiguhhhh!" KK drags out looking at the two of them. Kai giggles at the dramatics of KK, "what?" Paige questions the girl. "The live wants to see you." She says with an eye roll, Paige always getting the attention even when KK was live. Paige shakes her head, "nah, I'm talking to Kay." Paige says with a sly wink that the viewers could barely see.

KK doesn't respond and turns back to the live. "You don't have to sit here and talk with me." Kai explains, not wanting to bore the blonde. Paige laughs softly, "you're more fun to talk to." Kai blushes and hides her face with her hands.

"You still owe me food." Kai smiles, poking Paige in the chest playfully. Paige gives a playful pout in response knowing Kai can't resist, "KK, you need to restock my fridge." Kai announces, folding under the blondes pout. Paige cackles loudly while pointing at KK.

"Mother has favorites!" KK accuses. Kai gasps and throws herself on top of KK. "I love love love love you, Kamorea Arnold." The brunette says giving her fat kisses on her cheek. KK fake gags while trying to pry the girl off of her, "let me love you child!" Kai yells out, wrapping her arms around the girl like a koala.

KK gives up trying to pry the girl off of her and continues the live as if a girl wasn't hanging off the side of her. "I'm so tired." Kai mumbles. KK looks at Paige and gestures to the girl. Paige nods and is able to pull Kai off of the girl and into bridal style to her bed. Paige goes to sit back down on the couch but Kai grabs a hold of her wrist and tugs her onto the bed with her.

"Don't leave." Kai says softly before dropping her hand, too tired to keep it up. Paige smiles at the girl, "everyone it's time for bed." Paige announces because when Kai goes to bed, everyone must go to bed as well. KK groans before saying bye to her live and they all leave the dorm room.

Paige locks the door before turning off the lights and taking off her shirt to reveal her black sports bra, keeping her sweatpants on. Paige gets both of them under the covers before Kai scoots her body to be closer to Paige before falling back asleep. Paige falling asleep soon after.

Kai moans as she tries to stretch her body. Kai opens her eyes to see Paige encasing her body in. "Wake up." Kai groans while shaking the blonde. Paige mumbles something that Kai couldn't make out. Kai smirks before sticking her tongue out and licking the side of Paige's cheek, waking her up.

Kai laughs as Paige brings her hand up to wipe away the wetness on her cheek. "Good morning." She says with a smirk before crawling over Paige. "It would be a good morning if you didn't lick me awake!" Paige playfully snarks back. Kai grins before stretching her body out, groaning at how good it felt after being encased all night by the tall blonde. "Game tonight?" Kai questions as Paige grabs her phone and starts scrolling on it. Paige nods before speaking, "yeah, you gonna be there?"

Kai turns her body and raises an eyebrow at her. Paige sets her phone down and looks at Kai, "what?"

"Did you seriously just ask if I was gonna be at your game?" Kai asks, holding in her laugh. Paige purses her lips, "it's early!" Paige says trying to defend herself against the stupid question she asked. Kai lets her laugh out before going back on the bed.

"I have class soon." Paige points out after looking at the time on her phone. Kai groans, "what am I supposed to do?" Paige laughs at the girl.

"I won't be gone long, just an hour and a half. You can always go back to bed." Paige suggests not making Kai feel any better. "I can't sleep without you." She whispers in response before turning her body to the side in embarrassment.

Paiges heart palpitates at that, "sometimes I can't sleep either." She confesses while tucking a piece of Kai's hair behind her ear to look at her face. "Stop it." Kai says with a smile on her face and playfully pushes Paiges hand away from her face.

Paige grabs her phone and looks at the time, "I have to go." She says with a small pout. Kai whines playfully before throwing her body on top of Paige's. "Now you can't leave!" She tells her with a smile.

Paige smirks before wrapping her arms around Kai's waist and flipping them over, "yes I can."

Kai stops smiling and reaches her hand up to Paige's scalp before pulling on her hair making the blonde whine. "Get to class." Kai says with an eye roll, pretending to be mad. Paige chuckles lowly before leaving the brunettes room.

Kai grabs her cameras as the game started soon and she had to get in position, she was running late because Paige kept moving while she was trying to braid her hair. Kai smiles at the memory, even though it was only ten minutes ago. Kai hurries back to the gym where the team was and got in to position for the opening of the game.

Kai cheers as the buzzer goes off at the end of the fourth quarter with UConn up by 40-some points. Paige smiles as she jogs over to the photographer, "good job out there." Kai compliments before embracing the blonde in a tight hug. Paige picks the girl up and spins her around getting a yelp from her.

"Be careful, my camera!" She warns. Paige laughs and sets the girl down, who immediately inspects her camera to make sure no damage was done. "You love those things more than us." Nika says coming up behind them. Kai rolls her eyes, not denying it. She's put a lot of money into her cameras, no way was she trying to break them.

"Hey, we have to do our post-game interview." Nika reminds Paige. Paige nods before waving bye to Kai and heading off to the conference room to do the interviews.
