Four: Baths and Wine

Shelby shifted as she started to wake, head still resting on Audrey's shoulder, and she could hear the woman's steady breath; Her hand was resting on the other's chest and she could feel her slow and steady heartbeat under her palm, along with Audrey's arms securely wrapped around her, holding her close. Shelby placed a gentle kiss on her lover's neck as she opened her eyes.

"I love you." She whispered.

Audrey woke up to her lover's voice and a pair of lips softly kissing her neck; Before she could even open her eyes she already had a smile popping into her face.

"I love you more." She whispered, her hands softly rubbing her eyes before going back at hugging Shelby tightly.

"No way," Shelby chuckled sleepily. "I love you the most." She placed another kiss onto the woman's skin; The younger blonde loved the feeling of waking up in the other woman's arms, not only did it make her feel safe, but it made her feel wanted again.

Audrey rolled her eyes, giggling as she buried her face into Shelby's hair.

"Not true," she murmured. "I need to pee, but I don't want to leave you." She giggled again.

Shelby let out a small laugh, "Go. I'll be here when you get back, babe." She said as she pulled away from the woman to let her get out of bed. "And, it is true," she grinned.

"No!" The actress whined, nestling herself closer to Shelby again, hugging her tightly.

Shelby smiled harder, finding the other woman absolutely adorable. "You're such a child," she laughed. "As long as you don't pee in my bed, I'm fine." She stated.

Audrey giggled, groaning as she got up, pecking her lover's cheek before doing so. "You're so bad to me." She teased, walking towards the bathroom

"Whatever," Shelby laughed as she watched her lover walk off completely nude; She couldn't help but stare at Audrey's goddess like body, biting her lower lip. As Audrey disappeared into the bathroom, she sat up in the bed, pulling the blanket with her to cover her chest as she leaned against the headboard.

Audrey came back from the bathroom and smiled widely; Seeing Shelby with no makeup, messy hair and sleepy face was the most beautiful thing ever. She walked towards the bed, crawling up and kissing her lover on the lips softly.

"I'm back." She whispered lovingly.

Shelby brought her hands up to hold Audrey's face, bringing her in for another kiss. "Hey, there gorgeous." She smiled softly, and pecked her lover's lips again.

Audrey giggled at the pet name, moving beside her lover and under the covers as well, resting her head on the younger woman's shoulder and taking her hand, intertwining their fingers.

"Your bathroom smells nice." She giggled

Shelby rested her head on top of Audrey's, smiling as she felt their fingers together. She placed a small kiss on the top of Audrey's hair.

A small laugh fell from her lips, "Thanks?"

"You're welcome," she giggled. "Sorry if I say things that are a bit weird, I tend to embarrass myself in front of people I care the most."

Shelby brought her hand up to run her fingers through Audrey's hair. "You're fine, don't worry, okay? You didn't embarrass yourself." She said softly, reassuringly. "I love you even if you're a bit weird." She teased with a smile.

Audrey felt her stomach filling with butterflies as Shelby started caressing her hair; She giggled when she heard her lover's words.

"Shut up." She murmured, pulling the woman in for a soft kiss. "I love you, silly." She whispered as she pulled apart.
