Cut the Deck (Lesbian Story)

How bow dat?

I arrive at Lips apartment. I tap on his shoulder but he doesn't budge rather snores loudly. I continue to shove him but he doesn't move. Then I remember that I have tons of half-filled water bottles under my seat and in my dashboard. I grab one and open the top while carelessly tossing it and carelessly pouring the water onto his face. He wakes up quickly, almost as if he was drowning. He takes long exaggerated breaths and looks around in such a panicky state.

"We're here, now get the hell up." I slam the door and make my way to his apartment. I don't necessarily care if he's behind me or not. I wait for the elevator and Lip finally appears-out of breath- behind me. We remain quiet as Lip leans against the wall for support. He rubs his tired eyes and wipes the remaining water from his ears.

The elevator stops on his floor and before exiting, Lip turns to me and states...

"Don't be stupid." I roll my eyes at his dumb statement and enter his apartment right behind him. There Nyla lays down on the sofa facing the opposite of us. Her main focus is on some dumb tv show.

"Nyla, I'm back," Lip states highly tired and drunk. She jumps up quickly while dropping her cell to the floor. She quickly turns to face us and she sees me and stares for a while. Looking me over with my gray cardigan sweater and capri navy green pants and Vera Wang flats-that her crew gave to me personally. My curly blond/bleached locks all over the place.

"Where's River?" Lip questions immediately.

"He's fast asleep in his room, I gave him some kids Pepto-Bismol and a glass of warm water and he went right to bed," she smiles while gathering her things.

"Thanks so much Nyla," he reaches into his pants for his wallet.

"Hey, why don't you go check on River, make sure he feels better?" I ask while raising my eyebrows. He nods understanding what I'm getting at and he heads toward the kid's room.

"Is that always you're way of getting me alone?" She chuckles while tying up her shoelaces. I guess she's referring to me always shooing people off to get her alone. I don't necessarily want her to leave, if she leaves then I definitely won't get to talk to her again and show her the real me, or some bullshit like that.

"Pretty much," I grin while rubbing my neck hairs nervously.

"Kinda knew Lip would tell you that I'm his new babysitter."

"Worst person to tell to keep a secret, Lip can't even hold water," I state while ruining the hem of my sweater from the anxiety that's arising in my palms. I haven't been this nervous for a while. Just her looking at me and me not knowing what to expect from her scared me.

"It wasn't really a secret. My cab should be here soon," she says while sitting back down on the sofa. She taps the spot next to her referring me to sit down. I slowly advance toward her like a virgin being alone for the first time with her crush. Why am I acting like this! What the fuck is going on?

"You left during the show," I state so dryly.

"Yeah, I wasn't feeling it. I got yelled at so much that I couldn't take it anymore," she shrugs. She slowly leans her head onto my shoulder and curls her knees into her chest, kinda forgetting she has shoes on but I doubt Lip will care.

"I thought you were still mad."

"I was but then I got over it. Needed time to think about how much of an asshole you are," she chuckled.

"I'm not an asshole, I just make dumb decisions and say stupid shit," I state matter-of-factly. She snickers, almost throwing shade.

"Yeah, stupid," she mumbles, and I turn to her basically stating, "yeah, I get it". I constantly look at her phone ready for that call to come saying her cab is outside.

"Can you just stay here, with me!?" I randomly boldly state. She turns and stares at me shockingly.

"Or do you have a bedtime?" I add quickly, scared of what she'll say.

"No, but I do have a strict roommate, but I'm a grown women so no! But my cab is on it's.." before she could state anything else...I shut off her power and toss her phone onto the love-seat and kiss her lips softly. It wasn't anything too exotic and breathtaking but it was something.

"How bow dat?" I chuckle as her eyes are still shut and she is still deeply-taken back by the kiss. She almost falls on me but I chuckle and catch her.

"O-okay," she states dreamily still looking at my lips. She then looks down, then around then back at me.

"Are you saying we sleep here, on this small couch at your friend's house?" I nod skeptically.

"Lip will not mind and on-top of that, we can make this work. If we remove all clothes and sleep naked on top of each," I joke and she smacks me in the arm before I could finish.

"Okay, maybe we can't have a sleepover tonight but we'll have one soon. I'll take you home tonight though." I state lazily and she smiles.

"And tomorrow I can take you on an official date. Where ever you want Nyla!" I state staring at her beautiful smile and features.

"Yeah, whatever," she states smiling brightly and cheekily while giving me an eye roll.
