talia [catradora]

part one

hey, my love

catra's multicolored eyes surveyed the scene, watching lonnie, kyle, and rogelio argue about something - probably football, again.

why couldn't they talk about something interesting for a change?

catra turned, sighed, and sat down on the bench, crossing her arms and tapping her feet impatiently.

"hey," someone sat down next to her. "bored too?"

"mhm," catra stared at the wall, not bothering to look at the blonde next to her. "don't you have somewhere to be, adora?"

her eyes flitted over to bow and glimmer, who were enveloped in a loud debate on the other side of the gym.

why, oh why, were school dances mandatory?

"oh - right," adora said, standing up. "but they're kinda busy, and i was wondering if you wanted to -?"

"dance?" catra considered it. it wasn't an entirely stupid idea. "sure." she stood and let adora guide her on the floor, ignoring the stares of rogelio and lonnie from over by the bleachers‍. kyle was oblivious as always, bent over the punch and muttering angrily. adora glanced over at bow and glimmer, who were seated on the bleachers and staring over at her, their mouths open.

"oh! i love this song!" catra observed scorpia dance out onto the floor with lonnie. lonnie seemed to be... enjoying it? rogelio and kyle stood by the punch, holding hands and smiling like idiots.

"so..." adora said, dipping catra. "what's up?"

catra bit her lip to keep from screaming.

adora was beautiful - her blonde hair was down and curled so it bounced off her shoulders, she was wearing a gold and red dress that complimented her athletic figure, and her makeup was expertly done - probably glimmer and bow. they were roommates.

catra felt herself falling, and she hoped adora would catch her.
