Shattered

( Recomended song is Shattered by Trading Yesterday )

Laura hums and detaches her lips from her past. She keeps her eyes closed and her arm firmly pressed against Carmillas back.

The two stay sitting in the same position for a bit, just taking each other in; taking it what just happened.

Carmilla's fingertips move the hair that's fallen on Laura's cheeks to behind her ears once again.

Laura finally breathes and backs away, but when she does tears start falling freely.

"Oh, Laura whats wrong?" Carmilla is quick to comfort her with fingers to wipe her tears but Laura pushes her hands away softy.

"Please don't" Laura sniffles. She gets up and starts to walk away before turning in the door frame. "I'm-" she sniffles "-I'm sorry.. I shouldn't have done that.."

"Laura wait!" Carmilla is quick to jump and chase after the girl who is opening the front door.

She makes it there in time to slip in front of the door and stop Laura from leaving. "Laura, you cannot leave me again." Carmilla whispers, feeling the tears prickling in her eyes.

Laura shrugs and backs away. "What do you expect me to say, Carm?" She folds her arms and scrunches her face.

"Say that you'll stay.." Carmilla smiles hopeful and walks towards Laura with open arms. Laura scuffs and turns her back towards Carmilla.

Why is the doing this? Has Will really hurt her that bad that she can't trust anyone to open her heart too? Carmilla's different. She knows that.

Carmilla shakes her head and scuffs too. "So that's it huh?" She waits for an answer. Laura stays quiet biting her fingernails, still facing the opposite way. Carmilla bites her lip with a smirk. "So.. Last night you tell me you love with for the first time without screaming it at me, then you kiss me and now you're leaving me?" She steps closer to Laura. "That's not fair."

Laura turns around quickly, realizing Carmilla heard her but not noticing the lack of space until she is inches away from the forbidden fruit. She looks at Carmillas lips and then back up and her eyes.

"I'm not letting you slip through my fingers again, Laura." Carmilla's firm with her words. Her jaw is clenched so tight, Laura swears she could cut glass with that jawline.

She can see the feeling in Carmillas eyes. If she looks close enough she swears she can see the universe. She trusts Carmilla, she does. But she can't risk Will coming home and seeing them. Not again. Not after what happened all those years ago.

"I don't want this." She lies through gridded teeth. "You were just.. looking at me in that way and-and.. "

"Laura don't!" Carmilla takes a deep breath and backs away a bit. "Don't bull shit me. You want this." She points to the ground between them.

Laura huffs out a laugh and swiftly wipes an eye with the back of her hand. "What even is this, Carm?.." She cocks her head and shakes it, hands on her hips.

Carmilla silent for a second while she thinks. Laura's right. What are they? Where do they go from here?

"Yeah... Me neither.." Laura whispers.

Carmilla steadies her gaze on the floor as Laura makes her way around the apartment to grab a couple of things and then to the front door with her coat in her arm.

"I'll see you around."

"Laura please.." Carmilla clenches her eyes shut as three tears go plummeting to the ground.
