( Recomended song, All this time by One Republic )

Laura wakes up to something tickling her nose. She bats it away with her hand, but to no avail. She gives in to the day and stretches out her bones only to be weighed down by something on top of her. She has yet to open her eyes but she knows exactly what it is weighing her down. Or who.. She smiles as she opens her eyes to see Carmilla curled up into her side. She also sees the source of her itch and moves the younger girls hair to rest behind her ear.

She reaches into her pocket to the empty feeling of not having her phone with her.

"Fuck." She whispers, remembering its inside on the side table next to the couch. Her bed. Why is she in here? She should be in there.

She's in here because Carmilla asked her to be. She's in here because she want's nothing more than to love and protect her, even when she's being impulsive and getting  trashed on a school night. Nevertheless, that is just how Carmilla is and Laura understands that. She likes that.

But she really needs to get her phone. She doesn't know what time it is and she has an early shift today.

She looks at Carmilla, brows in a frown, as she's sleeping soundly on Laura's chest.

She remembers waking up to Carmilla like this. She misses this. Clothed or not. Well, let's stick with clothed for now.. But she misses this. She misses her. Of course, she sees her every day, but it's just not the same.

She misses the stolen kisses and the secret letters and the driving lessons and secret hideaways. Sure the last time they did anything intimate was when Carmilla was just a teenager but.. It seems like it all just happened.

Everything is hitting her at once. She love's Carmilla. She told her last night instead of screaming it at her. Sure Carmilla was asleep but... She got the words out. Those words have been trapped inside of her for long two years. Her love for this girl does not compare.

Carmilla yawns and rubs her sleepy eyes.

"Hey." Laura whispers.

"Hey." Carmilla smiles, finally opening her eyes. Her eyes bug as she jumps up and scurries to the other side of the bed. "Oh my god I'm so sorry..." She trails off as she watches Laura laughing. "What's so funny?"

Laura calms down and sits up facing the confused girl. "Why are you freaking out?"

"Why aren't you?" Carmilla looks away for a second before meeting Laura's eyes.

Laura's smile fades. Why isn't she freaking out? Her feelings are so mixed up. They have been lately. Her feelings for this girl are bi-polar at best and she cannot control it.

Laura looks down. Everything is hitting her at once. All these feelings and a new one. A want. A need. She's felt this before. She felt it once last night when she said those three words. Then she looks up at Carmilla.

Carmilla's who's been patient with her for almost a month. Carmilla whose taken her into her home when she's fine on her own, just because of the simple fact that she loves her and she doesn't want her to be alone. Carmilla who is looking down at her lips the same time she's looking down at hers.

Laura scrunches her brows and parts her lips. From across the bed she can see Carmilla biting her lip and looking up into Laura's eyes.

She doesn't know why but she starts crawling towards Carmilla.

She watches as Carmilla chest starts to rise and fall a little faster. She realizes hers doing the same.

Once Laura's seated in front of her, she takes a second to search her eyes for any disapproval.

"I'm going to do something." Laura says, lifting her left hand slowly, to rest on Carmilla's cheek.

Carmilla nod slowly, rubbing her cheek on Laura palm. She closes her eyes to savor the feel of Laura's skin on hers before she opens her eyes again.

Laura's eyes flicker up to Carmilla's dilated pupils, before pushing her hand to wrap around the small of Carmilla's neck. She brings her forehead to rest on Carmilla's as her breath picks up a little more and her heart beats a little faster. She closes her eyes.

"Are you okay?" She asks, moving her forehead up a little further so their noses are touching.

Carmilla doesn't answer, instead takes the opportunity to speed up the process as she takes a deep breath in and pulls Laura in the rest of the way by her cheeks.

Laura's right arm wraps around Carmilla's back as their lips meet for the first time in two years.

All this time I was waiting for you.

Got all this love, can't waste it on another.

So I'm straight in a straight line running back to you. ~
