"I love you, you know that right?"
Maritza whispers into Flaca's ear holding her even tighter than before as she heard the loud thud from the thunder that had striked a few seconds before, but it didn't bother her that much now, cause she was in her arms, and Flaca's arms were the safest place Maritza could ever be in.
You could see Flaca's eyes flashing with sparkles of happiness as she heard those three words coming out of Maritza's mouth. She wanted to tell her how she had been feeling since that drunk kiss on valentine's day. But what if she didn't feel the same? she would have ruined a beautiful friendship because of her feelings, really strong feelings for her.
"Maritza would never fall for me, she's way out of my league for god's sake I don't even deserve her as my friend let alone as my girl"
She thought to herself. She held Maritza closer to her as tears spilled over from the sides of her eyes at the thought of having no chance with the beautiful woman that was in front of her.
"I love you too, Mari"
Flaca let out along with a deep breath while biting her lip to stop herself from saying anymore.
"why don't you wanna tell me what's going on?"
She asks with a confused expression on her face.
"because I don't want you to leave"
Maritza says innocently while looking at her with tears threatening to fall from her eyes.
"can we just talk baby? I'm hiding things too, not as important but whatever... what's going on between you and CO Humps 2.0? are you like with him or something"
Flaca asks with sadness laced in her voice looking at the ground scared of Maritza's answer to be yes.
"WHAT? babe. No fuck no that's why I want to talk to you, eww Flaca why would you ever think that?"
Maritza answers with a disgusted expression all over her face.
"I'm sorry I just don't know what to think, I mean you're straight and... just tell me what's going on, please?"
Flaca says desperate to know what is going on with the girl she was falling so hard for.
"okay..."
Maritza started but was interrupted by CO McCullough's flashlight right in their eyes.
"you too okay there honeys?"
She asks with warm smile as she removes the flash from their eyes.
"ahh Mac (MC) you scared us"
Flaca says while releasing a breath of relief.
"my bad my bad, are you okay?"
She says while looking at Maritza with worried eyes.
"I'll be fine"
Maritza says while forcing a smile to not be rude. She starts to untangle herself from Flaca.
"okay, no hey you can stay on the ground if you want, I have the whole shift tonight so, it's fine"
McCullough tells her with a warm smile on her face.
"if you need anything, you know where to find me"
She says still looking at Maritza.
"both of you"
She says now looking at Flaca and giving her a "what the fuck is going on" look.
Flaca reciprocated with an "I don't know yet" look.
"goodnight Mari, goodnight Flaca"
She says now curious of what's going on.
"night mac"
They both say weakly as they gaze into each other's eyes.
"so fucking in love"
McCullough murmurs underneath her breath while walking away from their cube.
"talk"
Flaca says with a soft, sweet smile on her face as she wrapped her arms around the tiny Latina's waist and pulled her closer to her.
"do you want the long version? or the short one"
Maritza asks with sadness visible in her voice.
"go with the long version, we got time baby"
Flaca says still smiling at her best friend, and drawing soothing circles on her back with her fingertips.
"okay so..."
