Her Swimmer

Not for long

A/N: I rewrote this so many times it actually got annoying for me but I did it... didn't originally plan this but I like the idea of it

Alexia, with a playful glint in her eyes said, "Repeat after me," her voice soft but coaxing. In Catalan, she said, "Em quedaré aquí i no marxaré mai."

Talia raised a suspicious brow and teased, "I don't know if I trust you."

Alexia chuckled and switched to English, "It's nothing bad, just say it."

Talia sighed, still unsure. "Repeat it again."

Once more, Alexia spoke in Catalan, "Em quedaré aquí i no marxaré mai," her voice slow and patient, as if coaxing the words out.

Talia tried but fumbled through the words, her attempt met with Alexia's amused smile. "I'm butchering it," she muttered, shaking her head.

Alexia, not deterred, gently guided her through each syllable, patiently repeating it until Talia's accent softened, and she finally got it right.

With a triumphant grin, Talia said, "Em quedaré aquí i no marxaré mai," her accent still imperfect but filled with effort.

Alexia smiled, proud and amused, "Perfecta."

Talia squinted at her, a bit suspicious. "And what exactly did you just make me say?"

Alexia's eyes sparkled mischievously as she replied, "You're staying here and never leaving."

Talia let out an incredulous laugh, rolling her eyes as Alexia climbed back onto the bed, her lips meeting Talia's in a soft, playful kiss. "How nice of you," Alexia teased between kisses.

Talia chuckled, her hand gently resting on Alexia's cheek as she shook her head. "Lex..." she began, her voice full of warmth and affection.

Alexia smiled softly, her voice low and affectionate as she said, "I know, princesa."

Then, with a casual tone, she asked, "Do you have anything to do today?"

Talia shook her head, slightly confused. "Not that I know of."

Alexia, still looking at her with those playful eyes, replied, "Now you do."

Talia raised an eyebrow. "Oh yeah? What plans?"

Alexia smiled innocently and said, "Me."

The words hung in the air for a moment, and Talia blinked in surprise. The way Alexia said it came off far more suggestive than she intended. Talia's cheeks flushed, and she stammered, her mind going blank at Alexia's boldness. "Uh... I... well, I—"

Alexia's breath hitched as the realization hit her, her cheeks flushing in surprise at the double meaning of her words. She blinked, stunned by how bold she had sounded, her mind scrambling to recover.

"I didn't mean... I mean, I didn't mean it like that," Alexia stammered, words tumbling out quickly. "But if you want... I, uh... I wouldn't..."

Talia's soft voice cut through Alexia's rambling. "Lex."

"Yeah?" Alexia managed to respond, still flustered.

"Breathe," Talia said, her smile warm and reassuring, her eyes twinkling with amusement.

Alexia inhaled deeply, calming herself as her gaze settled on the younger girl beneath her. The tension broke, and Alexia couldn't help but smile at the sight of Talia's affectionate, teasing expression.

Talia let out a quiet laugh, her hand gently caressing Alexia's arm. "I know what you meant."

Alexia shook her head, still a bit embarrassed. "Lo siento, amor, I didn't mean it like that," she repeated softly, her voice filled with sincerity.
