Red

I wake up and look at the clock it's 3:00. Too early, but I have to use the bathroom. As I was washing my hands I see something on my neck it's a hickey, made into the letter "C" this girl. But it is unbelievably hot, to me at least. Instead of worrying about like Chloe I'm going to have no shame over it.

Chloe

The alarm clock goes off and I see Red sleeping in her bed hickey still there. I take a shower and get ready for school, I'll wait to put makeup on. I nudge the sleeping girl "Red, wake up" "No princess?" Her voice raspy and her hair messy "Okay, Princess go get ready" "I don't want to" "Too bad you have to." "Okay, but you did this". She goes to get ready while I sit on my bed, she and comes out the bathroom with just a towel again?! "Red, come on its almost 8:00 if you don't get ready fast we're gonna be late" "I don't mind being late" she says walking closer to my bed, what is she doing?

"Come on Chloe just this once" she says now in front of my legs, maybe just this once. Wait no! Come on Chloe say no "Please" she says trailing her hand from my neck to my jaw, shit. Okay you got this, just say no. "Red-" I say but she pulls my collar as if to kiss me but she doesn't "I'll kiss you if we can skip first period" why does she do this? Maybe I can skip first period, wait no I'm not letting her feel bad about this. "You wish. Go get dressed" "Fineee" "Whine all you want". I'm surprised I didn't fold, one more move and we'd be skipping.

Red

She's stronger than I thought, I just wanted to tease her a bit, I wasn't going to actually skip first period. But I am not failing next time. I get dressed and we walk to history, god I hate that class. We take our seats behind Frost and Callan our only other friends in that class. The teacher starts saying words that I'm uninterested in hearing, but it's a great time to tease Chloe. "Chloe" "Yes?" "You look hot" I say and her face turns red, got her. "Red, we're in class" "So? Is it a crime to call my girlfriend hot?" "Yes, yes it is" her face still red "Are you nervous?" I say putting my hand on her thigh to "calm her down" "No..." she says clearly lying "Oh yeah?" "Mhm" her head now down to get the blush off her face.

"Red! Chloe! Are you listening?" "Yes!" Chloe says "Okay...." The teacher says. "I can't wait until school ends" I whisper moving my hand and going back to work. Nothing's happening after school I just needed that special touch. History is done, so according to Chloe we have gym next.

What's happening after school? "Nice hickeys!" Aziz yells to us "You wish it was you!" Red yells back. Today we're doing a fitness test, and of course I aced the whole thing, but I definitely noticed Red looking at me. "Like what you see?" I tease "Yes, like I said your hot, apparently especially when you're working out" she says looking me up and down "My eyes are up here" "I know and their beautiful, but so is the rest of you" she's been bolder why? Not that I don't want it "Whatever"

Classes are finally done, but today I have fencing which makes me think about what's happening after school more. I put on my fencing gear and start it, it's finished quickly because there's a game today, but I don't wanna go so I head to my dorm. But I get stopped by Sophia and her friends who are the dwarfs children "Chloe, I totally forgive you for punching me" "Thanks I guess" "Yeah... but anyway let's go back to being friends" "What? No way, you insulted Red!" "So? It was only a little and she deserves it" deserves it? "How? What did she do to you" "Well nothing.... But she cheated on you" "And I forgave her, it's not your business" "Not being my friend is the worst decision you will make" "Okay?"

Red

Chloe's defending me a lot maybe I should do something, I call Frost and ask her to get chocolate and flowers, blue flowers for my Bluey. Chloe finally walks in so I act like I was just scrolling on TikTok "Hey, Chloe" "Hey,Red" she says cautiously "Why so scared?" "No reason... I'm gonna take a shower" she says walking into the bathroom. After a few minutes someone knocks and I open the door "Here, chocolate and blue flowers. You owe me" "Yeah, yeah I know" I say closing the door, I really do owe her for many things. I put the flowers and chocolate on my nightstand and go on my phone.

"Red!" "Yes?" I yell "I forgot my towel! Can you pass it?" "Sure!" I grab her towel and go into the bathroom "Okay just leave it on the counter" "Or you can come get it" knowing she will never do it. "Princess Red of Wonderland leave the towel" she says sternly "You're making me not want to" I say and she pokes her head on one side of the curtain "Okay, I'll grab it" she says about to get out the shower "Actually never mind" I throw the towel at her and leave the bathroom. I never thought she would actually do it.

Chloe

Now I know why she teases it super funny but I finally got my towel. I walk to my closet to get my clothes and see Red looking at me again "Red, why'd you run?" "I don't know what you're talking about" she says facing the other way "Oh my god you're as red as your hair" "Shut up! And go get dressed" "Whatever you say princess" I say in a knightly voice. I do as she says and put on sleep clothes "Finally you're done, here" she says giving me a box of chocolates and blue flowers. "Aww, thank you" "No problem" "You really are a big softy,aren't you?" "What?! No I'm not! Give me that" she says taking my box of chocolates "You were probably gonna eat those anyway" "I mean you're not wrong...".

We spend the rest of the night talking on her bed, and I can't help but feel lucky for even meeting her. She just makes everything better, and cares about me when she was never really cared for. I wanna give her the whole world, and more if possible.
