Play the Leader

thrills don't come for free

Shifting slightly in the bed, Violet felt slender arms wrap around her, her heart racing as they did. She had almost forgotten about the girl in her bed, as Minerva would usually be gone by now. But this was something she needed, something she knew she needed.

As Minerva tucked her head into the crook of her neck, she began to leave kisses against the exposed, pale skin.

Then Violet knew she was nothing special.

Minerva hadn't wrapped her arms around her in her sleep, wanting to be as close as possible, wanting to feel the blonde. Oh no, she had only wrapped her arms around her in the hopes of waking her up to get a taste of something else before she had to leave.

It was so much worse than last time.

"Are you awake?" She whispered sweetly, reaching her hand up to tuck Violet's locks behind her ear before she left another kiss to her neck, "I'm feeling a little bit energized, how about you? Good sleep?"

"Better with you here,"

"Mmmm," she hummed, sitting herself up and on the blonde's torso, placing Violet's hands on her hips.

"What are you doing?"

"Blowing off some steam," she replied, leaning down to kiss her lips.

"You're boney."

"Is that bad?"

"You should probably eat more. Too skinny."

"I'm sorry Minnie. I'll try."

"Good girl." She smiled down at her, her lips curling into an almost sickeningly evil snare.

"Look at me. I like it when you make eye contact with me."

The blonde looked up at her, Minerva's thumb and index finger placed on her chin as she smiled up, almost convincing herself and the redhead that it was a genuine smile.

"You're the prettiest girl I've ever seen." Violet told her. "I look forward to seeing you every goddamn day."

"I know you do," she trailed her hand down the blonde's shirt, her palms gently cupping what little breast she could find, "You're so... attentive. Always so attentive. You like me, don't you?"

"Course I do."

"Say it. Make me believe it," she suddenly stated, her smile fading and eyes growing empty as she leaned closer to the girl, her hand squeezing the mound of flesh but it was anything but pleasurable,

"I don't believe you, I want to hear you say it."

"I-I like you! I like you!" She said, forcing a small smile to her lips. Violet caressed the redheads hips with both of her hands, smiling painfully as she spoke, hoping that the next four words would encourage the girl to let go of her.

"I love you, Minerva."

She smiled down at the blonde, her face softening as she leaned closer to captivate her lips one more time, her grip no longer strong.

"I know you do. Good girl."

It was hours later. Minerva had been gone since morning. It was the day before Sophie and Louis's wedding. Minerva was the maid of honor and so had bachelorette duties to perform for her sister. Not that it mattered. Minerva would have been gone long before now anyway.

Violet stood in front of her mirror, pulling on her black skinny jeans and white t-shirt. She was happy to be one of Louis's grooms people, honored. After all they had been good friends since Violet had been sent to Ericson's boarding school at eleven years old.
