Caught In Bliss

For All We Know

Enjoy.

The car halted in front of Dom's apartment with an abrupt stop. Melanie faced the driver with poison on her lips before the small brunette in the back leaned forward. The smell of her perfume bringing Kat into her head for a moment before Dom spoke.

"Thanks for dropping us off." It was her usual grateful response before a sigh left her older friend. The women all climbed out one after the other as Kat stood on the curb, holding the steel door open as if it needed to be for the smaller woman. Dom gazed up, her heart thrumming in her chest as she sent a soft smile towards the redhead, taking her hand as she helped her out.

"Is this normal for you two?" Melanie groaned, pushing loose strands of hair behind her ear.

"Is what normal?" Kat closed the door, still holding her fingers firmly against the ones in her palm.

"That." Melanie pointed towards their conjoined hands before breaking it up. The older woman happily pulled the small brunette into her, hugging her from behind as Dom giggled in her arms. Kat sternly studied their friend just before her own apartment door opened. Ray had been standing there in his robe, his eyes glancing over a cup of something as he watched the women. With a quiet breath Kat said her goodnights before she was on her way towards her home.

"You can let go now Melanie." Dom smirked, as her friend released her and they made it inside. The dark two story flat had been undisturbed all day. It felt strange to once again come home to such a quiet place. Dom was getting use to Kat being there with her. She sighed, pushing the door closed before Melanie flicked on the light, her eyes growing wide.

"Babygirl, what the hell is that?"

"What's what?" The smaller woman turned her head to find the toy she tossed out of Bernie's bag sitting near the coffee table. "Oh yeah." With flushed cheeks, Dom scratched the back of her neck, her hazel eyes going towards the item on the floor. "Bernie kind of got into some things and hid them over the house while I was asleep."

"You leave your sex objects out to be found?"

"Kat..." Dom stopped, her mouth closing as she squinted in embarrassment, not wanting to explain the situation further.

"Oh no, do tell."

"I'd rather not." The brunette rushed over towards the object, placing it behind her back as her eyes landed on something near her boots in the corner. A pout left her lips before she trailed towards the second item. Melanie watched her friend move from one end of the space to the next, collecting things she hadn't seen before.

"I'm going to be scarred for life after this."

"It's pretty late, if you're tired, I think I made the bed up this morning."

"Oh no, I want to talk with you considering we have an early call time tomorrow. I don't know when we'll be able to speak in depth about this maybe relationship of yours so...."

Dom cradled the many items in her arms, turning to face her friend before grabbing a purse from her coat hook and stuffing the items inside. The brunette was sure there were more items to find, but crossed her arms and faced Mel.

"I think I'm going to need a drink." The smaller woman smiled before trailing into the kitchen. Although she was still pretty new to the entire, giving her heart to someone else to take care of, she didn't quite talk about it with anyone but Kat half the time. Melanie was a hard cookie to crack when she spoke to her but she hoped her friend wouldn't be too hard on her since it was so late. Dom grabbed two glasses and a bottle of wine before making it back into the living room. She plopped down next to Melanie, handing her the glasses before she popped the cork to pour the drinks. This was the first time in twenty-four hours that the smaller brunette hadn't been in full on tears. Yes, there was a small hiccup on set, but a least it didn't last long.
