Jessica slightly shivered and snuggled closer to Yuri. She pulled Yuri's arm that was lying on her waist into the blanket, in worry that the tanned girl could be cold, too. She watched Yuri sleeping, so peaceful and eased that it made her heart lose the rhythm of its beats. Jessica's eyes landed on Yuri's lips, a small bruise on the bottom lip caught her attention. She used her index finger to trace the softness there, stopping right at the little injury. She bit down on her own bottom lip, her cheeks turned light pink. Jessica remembered everything that happened last night, so exact, so vivid.
They had made love like they had never made love before, endless it seemed to Jessica. The dark-skinned girl was passionate but not a bit rough, every single touch filled with so much gentleness and sincerity. There was absolutely no teasing, no playing around between them. No word could ever describe it - it was just simply making love, in the truest sense of the word.
They didn't even have time, or maybe didn't bother, to take off their clothes completely. It wasn't until Jessica found it too hard to breathe that she had to remove her bra. She was lying on top of the exhausted Yuri, who was taking the first break after hours of intense lovemaking. But just as soon as the garment left her body, Jessica found herself being pinned against the bed sheets again, Yuri's mouth conquering her exposed skin. Even much later, when there was no energy left inside of her anymore and she couldn't fight the doziness taking over, Jessica still felt Yuri kissing her face, her cheeks, her eyes, her nose, her lips. She drifted into sleep with Yuri pampering her ? the best lullaby, the sweetest bedtime story ever.
It was as if the tanned girl was Jessica-deprived for too long. It felt like she was missing Jessica too much to hold back. Jessica didn't question it - she, too, had gained an empty hole without seeing Yuri's smile, hearing Yuri's voice, feeling that warm hand in hers for a whole day, which felt longer than a decade. She, too, was lost and scared to see that hole growing, feeling as if they were to part soon. She needed to be as close to Yuri as possible, needed to feel the love, the only thing that could fill that emptiness inside of her.
Jessica traced Yuri's face the last time with her eyes before slowly closing them, feeling Yuri's kisses in her imagination.
She wanted to relax with Yuri's soothing breaths close to her ear, but there was still something that bothered her too much. It was frightening, and Jessica didn't dare to say it out loud. Her inner voice, the one that never failed her before, was repeating it over and over again. It somehow scared her and she just couldn't ignore it, she didn't know what to do. It would affect their relationship, definitively not in a positive way. Jessica felt it in her gut, so certain as never before.
The nasty Kwons' scheming minds were behind everything that happened.

Tiffany cracked the door open and stuck her head out carefully. She scanned the living room with her eyes, hoping that Taeyeon wouldn't see her. A sigh of relief escaped her lips as she didn't even spot Taeyeon in the room. Tiffany perked up her ears, trying to catch any sound that could tell her where her girlfriend was. But there was absolutely none. She quietly tiptoed out of the room, having a clue about where Taeyeon might be already.
"I knew it!" She exclaimed as she saw the girl. Or more precisely, the girl's foot.
Taeyeon was lying on the floor next to the couch, her eyes half, but her mouth completely open. Tiffany ran to her and crouched down, poking Taeyeon in the ribs lightly.
"Taetae ah..." She whispered. "Taetae, wake up."
The sleeping girl, however, just mumbled un-understandable words as she shoved Tiffany's hand away. Taeyeon then curled up from the coldness, snuggling closer to the couch foot. Tiffany wore a guilty smile on her face as she pulled on Taeyeon's hand, trying to get the girl up. As it wasn't working for Taeyeon was too heavy, Tiffany released the girl's hand and knelt down next to her instead.
