Love is Faultless (Lesbian Story)

C9: Friends?

"Ezrael!" said person was just going out of their classroom after their English class when she heard a familiar voice call upon her. With all the amount of encounters she had with Victoria, all unpleasant encounters mind you, the voice has become familiar to her. So Angelic yet holds a barbed mace when it's used, maybe only towards her as far as she knows.

Ezrael ignored the call and started walking faster, "I said, wait!" she heard the angry voice come from the same person, Ezrael was not planning to do that whatsoever but had no choice but to stop when her shirt got pulled.

The taller girl turned around to face the person she'd rather not talk to ever again and saw that the girl was slightly out of breath. Ezrael sighed in resignation, "look Miss Lopez, I can only take so much disrespect. You've reached your quota already, so for the sake of our peace of minds and instead of wasting your energy just to insult me, save it, I'm too tired to deal with your baseless contempt." Ezrael stated without pause and attempted to turn around and leave when Victoria grabbed her arm to stop her from walking out from her, for the nth time.

"I'm not here to disrespect you" Victoria clarified, slightly annoyed at this persons attempt at walking away again, "then what are you doing?" Ezrael asked and gestured to the both of them.

"I don't know, let me treat you to lunch or whatever" Victoria answered indecisively, "what for?" Ezrael probed curiously.

"Are you really going to make me say it?" Victoria hissed, crossing her arms over her chest. Ezrael frowned in confusion, "say what?"

"That I want to apologize, okay?" Tori grumbled, eyes narrowed.

"Oh, I'm sorry Your Majesty. I was sure I didn't hear the word 'sorry' in that sentence. So forgive me if I didn't know you were actually apologizing" Ezrael answered sarcastically.

"Don't act like a goddamn hard to get woman now, it doesn't suit you" Victoria stated angrily, Ezrael just raised both her eyebrows and crossed her arms, looking unamused.

Victoria wanted to tear her hair out with how difficult this person is acting, "Uggh! Fine! I'm sorry, okay?" Victoria forced herself to say it.

"Well, I guess that kind of sweet apology should make everything better" Ezrael quipped, her stance still unwelcoming. "Ugh! You annoying shit" Victoria was getting frustrated, "Excuse me? Is this really your way of apologizing? Because right now I'm getting a different vibe here" Ezrael isn't even sure why she's still standing here anyway, what with this supposed apology turning out to be another 'insult Ezrael' fest.

"Is this asshole really going to make me beg for it?" Victoria muttered to herself, but she did it loud enough to reach the other's ears.

"What?"

"Nothing! I said, I'm sorry for being a bitch to you. I'm not sorry for being a bitch in particular but only sorry that I was a bitch to you specifically" even if Victoria's tone was full of aggression, Ezrael saw that despite that tone, Victoria looked surprisingly sincere.

Ezrael figured based on her very little knowledge of the woman, that this is probably the best Victoria will ever manage close to an apology and she had to accept that, she could even appreciate the effort.

Ezrael was sure however that there's just something in there. That despite Victoria's harsh bearing, there's a reason why this woman is wearing a mask made out of pure hostility.

The taller of the two stared at the shorter one with such indulgent and soft look that it almost took Victoria's breath away, "ok, you're forgiven" Ezrael gently stated, Victoria was shocked to say the least. She was not expecting Ezrael to forgive her easily because Victoria herself knows how to hold a grudge and was expecting some level of it from Ezrael.
