Cordelia awoke in the warm embrace of Misty, she had come to find herself in the arms of the young witch nearly every morning, whether it be the way they fell asleep or the way they found each other throughout the night. It was only one of many new things she had come to enjoy in her time with Misty. It wasn't long after Cordelia awoke that Misty began to stir, her sleepy blue eyes slowly meeting with Cordelia's deep brown as they willed themselves open.

She couldn't help but smile as her eyes met with Cordelia's; waking up beside her had become the best part of her mornings, something that wasn't always guaranteed with Misty's habit of sleeping late but on the days she did, she felt like there was always something special about those days.

"Morning." Cordelia spoke, her voice raspy.

"Is it morning?" Misty said as she was still in  a daze, she had never been one to wake up right away.

"Well it's nearly over now but yes. How'd you sleep?" Cordelia bit her lip as she asked.

"Never slept so good in my life."

"Oh yeah?" Cordelia giggled, unable to help herself from leaning forward and kissing Misty.

"I'm guessing you did too if that's how you're feelin'." Misty said as their kiss slowly broke apart.

"After last night? How could I not?"

"You think any of the girls, y'know, heard somethin'?"

"Why? Are you worried about them finding out?" Cordelia asked shifting her body to face Misty, her hand cupping her cheek.

    A silence fell between the two women. They had yet to leave the little bubble they had been floating around in since the night in Cordelia's office. They had been so consumed with one another they had yet to discuss anything outside themselves, including telling the girls of the Coven unaware of how the witches  had always suspected something to begin with. They hadn't even talked much about where they stood with each other, let alone the entire academy. Their time together had been a mixture of late night conversations to reconnect and get to know each other in all the small ways they could and early mornings, more than likely laying in silk sheets covering their naked bodies after a night of love and exploration. They had no complaints about their time spent together, and it was finally beginning to feel as though their relationship was forming into something with a beautiful future rather than the tragic past they had become all too familiar with.

"Oh, please." Misty finally spoke, "I'd be happy to show ya off any day."

"I am so in love with you, Misty Day." Cordelia said, her voice was soft and her tears were beginning to fill her eyes.

"Ya what?"

"You are all I have ever wanted Misty, I love you." Cordelia said again, knowing she could never get tired of telling Misty how much she loved her.

"I love you too, Delia." Misty grinned as tears began to trickle down her face, Cordelia doing  her best to catch each one that escaped by brushing them away with the pad of her thumb. "You don't mind me callin' ya Delia, right?"

"You can call me whatever you want baby." Cordelia couldn't help but smile and lean in for another kiss.

"I got something I wanna ask ya."

"What?"

"Do you, would you, wanna go out somewhere with me, sometime. Y' know -"

"Like a date?" Cordelia finished with a smile spread widely across her face.

"Yeah, I just, it's just been awhile since I've really been around here so I don't really know, uh, well what to do really." Misty chuckled.

"Well, what do you feel like doing baby?" Cordelia asked, happily incorporating her new pet name for Misty.
