Florecer

No Secrets

        Grinning, Tracy used Lily's spare key and invited herself into the apartment. It was dangerously early so she was quiet as to not bother anyone. Danny wouldn't wake up to get ready for school for at least twenty minutes. She dropped her things in the living room before helping herself to food and drink in the kitchen. She thought of making breakfast for her loved ones but decided instead to take a quick nap before any alarms went off. She wanted to be at least remotely rested because she had in her mind to be the one to take Danny to school. So she shucked off her coat, kicked off her shoes, then padded over to Lily's bedroom so she could crawl into bed and cuddle with her sister. She could use a bit of warm cuddling after being away from her loved ones for so long.

     But instead of receiving a session of safe contact, she got an eyeful of a clear morning after.

     Her mouth dropped open in surprise and she continued to stare for a handful of seconds. Then a few seconds more. A smile started to upturn the corners of her mouth. She thwacked Lily's forehead with only enough force to wake her up then wiggled fingers when Lily's eyes creaked open.

     Shooting up, Lily cursed. She covered herself, cursed again, then threw the blankets over June's exposed body. She got out of bed nude then quickly found her clothes and rushed into them before shoving Tracy out of the room. "What are you doing?" she whispered fiercely.

     Still smiling, Tracy stuck the tip of her tongue between her teeth. "What are you doing?"

     Lily heated. " Why are you even here?"

     "I told you I was coming home early."

     "Not this early!"

     Tracy laughed, quickly silencing herself as the sound echoed. She sighed and tried not continue grinning because it was obviously pissing Lily off. "June looks good," she said, unable to stop herself.

     Lily fumed, but turned on her heel. "I'm going back to bed."

     "Oh, come on! I'm happy for you!"

     "I'm not talking to you anymore." She grumbled all the way back to bed and crawled under the covers. June shifted beside her and draped an arm and a leg over her, and she smiled despite still being upset with Tracy. Seeing June's naked form with a little more light was both entrancing and calming. She still couldn't quite believe that her and June had consummated their relationship. It had been... better than she'd dreamed. Though Tracy finding out not a handful of hours later wasn't ideal. But she pushed away those thoughts and tried to fall back asleep before she had to be up and about. Unfortunately as she was finally getting completely immersed in the mattress, the alarm blared. She groaned and stuffed her head underneath a pillow.

     June inhaled as she started to move into alertness, and she leaned over to shut the alarm off. She turned to Lily, who was still hiding beneath a pillow. "You awake?"

     Lily groaned and tightened her hold on the pillow.

     "Did you get dressed last night?"

     Moving the pillow, Lily let her face be seen. "Tracy's here."

     "She- what? When did she get here?"

     "Literally right before the alarm went off. She... saw us."

     "Oh... What did she say?"

     "Just her usual annoying teasing. I couldn't handle it so I came back to bed. She's in the living room, probably."

     June moved over slightly and took hold of the blankets to cover herself. "And how do you feel about it?"
