Grow As We Go

Playhouse

Feeling the warmth of her body against hers, Azzi nuzzled her face into Paige's chest as she slowly began to wake. Their bodies entangled together as they lay in a naked embrace from last night's passions, it was the perfect way to wake up. Opening her eyes slowly, Azzi was happy to realize that last night and day before that wasn't just a dream, she was actually waking up to the girl she had been in love with for the longest of time. Laying in a bed that they now called theirs, sharing a room that they now called theirs, sharing a house that they now called theirs; her heart exploded with happiness for the leaps and bounds they had taken together to get to this point. Leaning forward, Azzi peppered Paige's face with kisses as she tried desperately to wake the blonde up.

"Why do you wake up so early???" Paige groaned as she kept her eyes closed.

"Because its morning time and we've still got a lot to do" Azzi said as kissed her collarbone.

"Watch Frozen or something" Paige laughed as she rolled over onto her stomach.

"Now you want me to watch the movie. I'm going to remember this moment for when I want to watch it in bed" Azzi laughed.

"I'm willing to suffer through that when the time comes" Paige muttered as she remained in her slumber.

"Paige" Azzi told her as she looked on at the blonde.

"Azzi" Paige groggily replied as she was more than prepared to stay asleep. Silence filling the room as Azzi knew that if she stared long enough, Paige would cave in. Both standing firm on their stance, Paige groaned in frustration as she couldn't help but give in to Azzi. Rolling over onto her back, Paige looked on at Azzi who wore the biggest of smiles on her face. "You suck" she stated before Azzi leaned it to give her a quick kiss on the lips.

"But you love me though" Azzi reasoned.

"We're going to have to declare at least one day to be a lazy day. No waking up early. Laying in bed until we absolutely must leave. Pajama dress code..." Paige began to declare.

"You wear basketball shorts or Nike sweats most of the time. You are literally always in casual gear all the time" Azzi replied.

"I'm also a Jordan girl, get it right" Paige quickly pointed out.

"Ooh, I'm so sorry. I forget you're a name brand girl" Azzi laughed.

"So, what's so important that we both have to be awake early?" Paige asked as she caressed Azzi's cheek.

"This week is a game week, so our schedules are going to naturally be busy with media, scouting reports, practice, rehab. Then your family is coming in and my family is coming in, so we need to manage to get you moved in completely before Thursday" Azzi told her.

"We could always hire someone to move me in" Paige smiled as Azzi just gave her a look.

"You can't always throw money at everything; we have to put in the actual labor in getting your stuff in here and combining our things" Azzi told her. "I mean it won't feel really official until you have all your literal stuff here..." she began to say.

"It's official" Paige smiled at her.

"But you still have to go back to your dorm room to get your stuff, when it should already be here" Azzi told her as she looked on at the blonde.

"Okay, here let's do this. I will go by the housing department and officially move out of my dorm room today. Then get Nika, Aaliyah, and Aubrey to help me bring my stuff over. That way I will officially be in my tonight" Paige told her as Azzi smiled with excitement with her suggestion. "Are you happy with that?" she asked as Azzi leaned forward to press her lips against hers.
