The fire crackled in the the corner of the room, glistening embers flying from the ferocious flames and landing gently on the marble base of the mantle, the girls laid in Toni's bed, their naked bodies cuddling close to each other, playing with each other's hands absent mindlessly as they focused on the movie. 

Eventually the movie came to an end and the credits rolled, Cheryl looked down to discover her girlfriend asleep next to her, her wispy baby hairs escaping from the messy bun tied up on the top of her head and her arms still protectively wrapped round her waist. Cheryl kissed her softly on her forehead before laying her head on the serpent's chest and falling asleep herself. 

The all too familiar sound of Toni's alarm blared throughout the room, waking both the girls from their sleep. "it's a fucking Saturday!" groaned the redhead as Toni rolled over to mute the alarm. "sorry baby" she apologised, her voice still raspy with sleep. Cheryl's heart fluttered at the girl's pet name, she twisted her body round to face her girlfriend, looking lovingly into her chocolate eyes before connecting their lips, Toni hands quickly found their way to the girl's waist pulling her closer as she deepened the kiss, slipping her tongue in, letting out a small moan as the other girl tugged on her locks. Cheryl pulled away, biting her girlfriends lip as she did "we're still naked tt" Toni nodded, wetting her lips and smiling eagerly, the redhead moved the blanket from over her body and climbed out of the bed walking over to the closet.

"god bombshell, your such a tease!" Toni pouted, still admiring the bare goddess standing in front of her.

"your drooling babe" smirked the other girl, strutting back over to her girlfriend still laid in the bed. She kissed the tender lips before pulling away and chucking a pile of clothes at her "get dressed beautiful, we've got a big day"

12:00pm exactly was the time Cheryl Blossom burst through the doors of Thistlehouse, claiming it for her own, with her mother and mysterious uncle having decamped, she could now live an abuse free, quiet life. They stepped into the house, Cheryl taking a sigh of relief as she wandered round the house, making sure her mother hasn't hidden a secret assassin in a wardrobe.

Although she hadn't told Cheryl, Toni had been dreading their first night apart for weeks, she would worry about the girl even when they were cuddled up in bed, she didn't know how Cheryl would be able to sleep alone, especially in the house where she suffered so much abuse at the hands of her mother. But she had faith in her girlfriend and prayed she could get through the night without her.

They spent all afternoon together, kissing and cuddling, both dreading the night coming and them having to be apart. Eventually Toni got up from the couch and said her goodbyes, kissing her with the passion of a thousand suns and holding her as close as she could.

The girls lay in bed. Alone. Separate beds. Separate houses. They both couldn't sleep, they needed each other like a baby needed it's mother. (obviously Cheryl is the mother because Toni is daddy) Cheryl had gotten used to waking up with vicious nightmares and being immediately calmed by her girlfriends gentle voice and Toni had gotten used to Cheryl kissing her softly and snuggling into her side. They couldn't do it. Toni rolled over reaching for her phone and as she grasped it it started ringing 'god is a woman' the specific ringtone she had set for when miss bombshell herself called filled the room, a smile reached the corners of the girl's mouth as she answered it. What she heard shattered her heart, Cheryl was sobbing on the other side of the phone, begging for her to come and cuddle her. Without a second thought she grabbed her jacket, her keys and phone and headed out the door firing up her motorcycle and racing to Thistlehouse, she skidded into the gravel and jumped of sprinting to the doorway where her girlfriend was standing, her pale body wrapped in a satin robe, tear stains down her cheeks.

Cheryl jumped into her girlfriends arms hugging her tighter than ever before, tears still streaming down her face, landing in a puddle on Toni's serpent jacket. "i missed you" she sobbed.

"i know, i know me too, i was about to call you" Toni reassured her girlfriend, holding her tightly. She carried her back up to her bedroom and placed her on the large poster bed before removing her jacket and climbing under the blankets with her and pulling her closer, Cheryl laid her head on her girlfriends's chest, Toni's heartbeat had always been a comforter to the redhead, "i was afraid i would have a nightmare and you wouldn't be here to help me" she said quietly playing with the piercing in her girlfriend's bellybutton. 

"i'm here now" she whispered kissing the girl's cheek, she used her pointer finger to tilt the pale chin up to meet their eyes "i'm not going anywhere, ever again" she explained softly.

"why don't you just move in" Cheryl beamed, her eyes immediately lighting up with joy, "come and live here with me Toni, this house is way to big for just me" 

 Toni squealed kissing her girlfriends lips lovingly "yessss"
