Love?-Violet×Pearl

A/N: In drag, during filming of RuPaul's Drag Race.
Friendship (but a lil more)

Pearl sat by her work station, doing her makeup. It was the DESPY awards and she was actually quite excited. She was with Max and she was certain they'd do well. They had to, ideally.

A frustrated snort came from her side, which made Pearl turn to see who it was. It'd been Violet, who looked incredibly frustrated. She laid down her eyeliner, stood up and walked over to where Violet was sat, leaning again her station.

"What do you want?" Violet glared at Pearl, her eyes narrowed.
"You're pissed off, so what's up, your makeup?" Pearl retorted, locking eyes with the queen. Her eyes raked down her body, taking in her costume. For once she didn't look as... perfect as she normally did?
"Pearl just leave me alone..." Violet muttered, casting her eyes downwards.
"Nope, I'm finishing your makeup for you cause you're obviously not able to do it currently." Picking up an eyeshadow and a brush, she carefully applied the makeup to her face. At first Violet squirmed a little but after a while she calmed down and allowed Pearl to work her magic.

Violet began to notice the little things about Pearl. How she tilted her head whilst concentrating, the little melody she hummed over and over again. It was incredibly cute!
"And you're done!" Pearl grinned and stood to her side, looking into the mirror in front of Violet. She was proud of what she'd done.
"Thank you so much.. I owe you." Violet beamed, a rare sight to see.
"No problem, you look pretty hot if I do say so myself." Pearl glanced at Violet after saying this, meeting Violet's eyes. Smirking slightly, Violet wound her fingers around Pearl's and whispered quietly to her.
"I'll talk to you later in Untucked about this, darling."
Pearl nodded and walked back over to her work station, thoughts whirling around her mind. She couldn't wait for later.

///During Untucked, Violet's POV///

I sat quietly on the sofa, sipping my drink. What the fuck have I done, I thought. My critiques were abysmal... I was definitely in the bottom two, along with Kasha. There was a hand on my shoulder, a small voice accompanying it.
"Smoke break? Perhaps we can discuss some things." Pearl's eyes met mine. They were fiery and full of something different.

Nodding, I stood up and walked outside with Pearl. Surprisingly, the cameras didn't follow us go once, like they normally did. I stood against the rails, facing Pearl.
"So Miss Pearl, what's this about?"
She stepped forward towards me, so our foreheads were nearly touching.
"It's about you, Violet." Smirking, she kissed me gently. It took me by surprise, so I just kissed her back until she pulled away.
"Well..." I mutter, looking down at the ground, my face growing red. "That was nice."
"I'm glad you thought so, Vi." Pearl grinned, stepping back and tucking a stray piece of hair behind her ear.

Before I answered back, the door swung open and Katya stumbled out with Ginger. Katya stood still, her mouth wide open, whilst Ginger stared at us.
"Ah Pearl I needed to talk to you, er come with me please." Ginger came forward and pulled Pearl inside, with Pearl shooting me a sorrowful look.
"What in the frickety frack was going on Vi?" Katya questioned, her ice blue eyes bulging slightly, wig lopsided.
I shrugged, not answering her question. How am I supposed to explain it?
"Have you two got a thing or am I missing something?" She pressed on.
"No no... Well fine, we kissed but that's all okay."

Katya choked out a laugh, holding on for dear life to the bar. She shook with laughter, shaking slightly. After she'd calmed down, she fell into a short silence.
"Kats?"
"Yep yep sorry, I just can't believe it. I need Ginger to give me five dollars after this now."
"You had a fricking bet on us?!" I hissed, gently whacking her with my hand.
"Well everyone did! Apart from Max, all the others have."
Shaking my head, I laugh quietly. This is pure gold, honestly.
"Thanks for that, I wonder what Pearl will think of this."
Katya shrugged and held out her hand. "Come back in? I think we need to go back onstage soon."
I nodded and walked back inside with her. Ginger and Jaidynn were stood in the corner whispering feverishly; probably about Pearl and I.
"You ready to go?" I turned and saw Pearl standing behind me.
"Mhm." I mutter, nerves growing inside.
"You'll be fine, okay? If you end up lipsyncing then show them what you've got." Pearl smiled comfortingly, calming me. I nodded and walked with her, breathing shakily in anticipation.
