Flora & Tuesday

Valentine's Day

Flora walks into Tuesday's room.
"Can I sleep here?" She asks.
"Mmm" Tuesday responds.
Flora gets in bed with Tuesday and lies on her back next to Tuesday. A minute or so passes.
"Today was valentine's day"
"I know"
"You were gone all day. I didn't get the chance to ask you out somewhere."
"I had a ton of work today."
Flora sits up in bed and looks down at Tuesday. She is laying on her side; facing the opposite direction of Flora.
"Really...?" Flora asks doubtfully, "You weren't just avoiding me?"
Tuesday is silent.
Flora looks down and fiddles with her hands.
"Its been a few months since we started dating. You're around... yeah, but I feel like I still barely know you."
Silence.
"I'm 20 now. I changed a lot since we met. I been studying english so Its not such an inconvenience for you and me, and my magic has improved a lot over the last few months."
Tuesday sits up and faces Flora.
"Ive noticed Flor-"
"But it doesn't feel like it. All of my effort seems like its doing nothing. I feel like you don't really pay attention to what Im trying to do, to what I want."
"... What do you want.?"
"I wanna start working with you and actually help you out... I-I wanna get to know you more... and I wanna ACTUAL relationship with you. We're dating but it feels just like when we weren't. Nothing's changed Tuesday, I want more."
Tuesday looks down and crosses her arms,
"I know, I know Flora, I just.." She pauses, "I've only dated a girl once.. and it was the only relationship of mine that ended on bad terms." She looks up at Flora, "I really like you Flor, I do, Im just... scared to lose this."
Flora smiles a little.
"I get that.. I do. But I had a bad relationship in the past too. I dated a guy I didnt even like... It was so hard being with him and I hated every minute of it... but you, I actually like you, Tuesday." Tuesday smiles a bit, thinks a bit, and looks Flora in the eye. Everything she's said is expressed just in her facial expression.
Tuesday thinks for a second or two, leans in, and kisses Flora. Flora lets out a happy sigh, "Im scared too, this is all new to me... but I'm still trying. You just- you need to try too." Tuesday caresses Flora's cheek, smiling, and leans her head on her shoulder. "Okay." she mutters in a quiet, but relieved sounding voice.
They both lay down, Tuesday in the arms of Flora. "I wasn't lying though, I did have a lot of work today." Flora just laughs with a smile on her face.
