"Look at me Bonnie! I fucking love you! What don't you get about that?!" Annalise demanded as she looked to the blonde.
Bonnie stood up from the chair she was sitting at and stared at Annalise.
"You're drunk." She muttered, taking the bottle of liquor from the desk and walking into the kitchen. Annalise followed closely behind her.
"I'm not drunk, Bon. I had a little bit to drink but I'm not drunk. I love you."
Bonnie stood at the sink and placed the bottle of liquor beside her.
"If you really mean it, tell me in the morning." Bonnie muttered, looking down into the drain of the sink.
Annalise didn't reply but hugged Bonnie from behind. She wrapped her hands around her waist and tucked her head into the blondes back.
Bonnie felt tears brim her eyes, knowing that this was the alcohol and not actually Annalise but she didn't move, feeling safe in Annalise embrace.

They had been standing there for around 10 minutes before Bonnie spoke.
"Annalise?" She questioned.
Annalise hummed in response.
"Let's get you to bed." Bonnie stated and Annalise let got, deciding best not to argue.
Bonnie helped Annalise up the stairs and opened the door to her bedroom.
"Annalise, can you get yourself undressed or do you need help?" Bonnie asked and Annalise smirked.
"You should undress me." Annalise stated. Bonnie rolled her eyes but began to unzip Annalise's dress for her nonetheless. As the dress fell to the floor, Bonnie traced Annalises shoulder blades with her finger tips.
"I do love you Bonnie. I felt a pull to you when you took that stand. I feel things I've never felt about anyone. I can be myself with you." Annalise murmured, leaning into Bonnie's touch.
"And I can be myself with you." Bonnie replied, leaning in closer to Annalise.
"Then why don't we give this a shot? Us? We deserve to be happy." Annalise stated. Bonnie slowly moved her hand from Annalise and wiped her eyes before stepping closer to the open door.
"We'll talk in the morning. If you need me I'll be in my guest bedroom. Have a good sleep Annalise." Bonnie muttered, stepping out of the room and closing the door.

4:22 am was when the door to the guest room opened and Bonnie opened her eyes to see the silhouette of Annalise.
"Annalise?" The blonde questioned. Annalise stepped closer to the bed and began getting in.
"I need you." She muttered, wrapping her arm around Bonnie. Bonnie looked her in the eyes.
"Annalise please tell me the truth, do you really love me?" She asked. Annalise moved closer so her lips connected with Bonnie's. The kiss was passionate and loving. It conveyed all the emotions they both felt, nothing could erase this memory. Nothing could stop them being together.
Annalise slowly pulled away and smiled slightly.
"Does that answer your question? Because of course I love you. How could I not?" Annalise whispered, staring into Bonnie's eyes.
Tears began to brim the blondes eyes.
"I love you so much, Annalise. So much. I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Bonnie replied, moving in to kiss Annalise once more.
They pulled back after a few seconds and Annalise cuddled into Bonnie.
"I love you." She said, looking at Bonnie.
" I love you too. Now get some sleep." Bonnie replied, wrapping her arms around Bonnie.
Nothing could break them apart now, they were connected.

When they both fell back to sleep, they each had a smile on their face. Safe from the outside world and safe in each others embrace.
