Adora's POVAdora rubbed sleep out of her eyes. Catra and her were out until 12:45am last night, though it doesn't make her regret the date. The folder. Her mind groaned as Adora sat up, she went to go get the folder off the coffee table to look at it. The blue eyed girl picked up the vanilla folder and opened it, taking out a piece of paper. Adora let out a breath of relief as her application was approved for the college she was going to. Though the college was far since BrightMoon didn't have any very good colleges. I should tell Catra. Her mind immediately thought and she looked to her phone. She's probably asleep and I don't want to disturb her, she bummed as she got ready to visit Glimmer and Bow. Adora looked back one last time, specifically the vanilla folder and piece of paper on her kitchen counter. She shrugged and opened the front door, the sound of it closing echoed throughout the small house.
"You got in?!" Bow's voice cracked with joy. Glimmer nearly choked on her drink but gave a thumbs up anyway, "Have you told anyone else?" The short pink haired girl asked, harshly eyeing Adora, who looked away shamefully. "I...I will get to it, for now let's just stick with you two." She smiled sheepishly and rubbed the back of her neck. Glimmer and Bow shared a look before giving a group hug to Adora. "We are so proud of you Adora," Glimmer whispered before pulling back a little to cup her cheeks. Glimmer stared intensely into Adora's eyes before giving a smile, "When do you leave?" She asked as her hands dropped to the table. "I've yet to buy a plane ticket. I'll probably see how much money I have in my account and pull some out to buy one." Adora planned before getting up, "I need to go now, got things to do." She gave her friends a wink before walking out.Catra's POV
Catra awoke to something nuzzling her shoulder. She sighed and propped herself up onto her elbows and looked to see Melog nuzzling her, she placed a clawed hand on their head and sat all the way up. "What's up bud?" She asked as she got up, only wearing a hoodie. Melog meowed at her, their head turning as she walked out of the bedroom, "Someone at the door? Okay I'll get it." Catra yawned and scratched her back before going to open her door, she cracked it open only to see a white shirt. Her mismatched followed up to the face and nearly screeched when she saw the happy face of Adora's. "Hey Adora," she greeted as she opened the door for her blonde girlfriend to come in. Adora smiled, stepping into the house and closing the door behind her. Catra threw her arms around Adora's waist and nuzzled into her chest, the blonde only chuckled before raising a hand to scratch behind her cat ears. "Someone is clingy when they're tired huh?" She teased and Catra's tail twitched slightly before pushing her away, "Whatever, you need something?" Catra asked as she walked further into the house, Adora right on her heels but the blonde was cut off by an angry Melog. The creature started hissing at her, "Uh..hi?" She backed up with her hands up. Catra turned and wrapped her arms around Melog, trying to pull them away "Melog what the hell is your problem?!" Catra hissed but they didn't answer, only snorted before walking away. Catra's tail twitched in agitation before rubbing her arm sheepishly, "Sorry, they're never that way with anyone." She apologized before grasping Adora's hand and leading her to the kitchen, "You want something to eat?" She asked but Adora just shook her head and said "I just wanted to hang out today, you busy?" She asked with one of her sweet smiles that made Catra's heart melt. Idiot.. she thought fondly before shrugging, "Nah I'll go get ready."
Thank goodness she brought her sunglasses or the sun would destroy her eyes. Catra gripped Adora's hand as they walked through the mall. It was bright and had a huge ceiling window, and even had a part where you could walk outside to go to different stores. "Hey stay around here I'm gonna go look for something for you." Adora murmured and placed a kiss on her cheek before hurrying off. Catra shrugged before spotting a pair of certain pincers. She strolled up to them before greeting her, "'Sup Scorpia," she offered her a smile only for Scorpia keep her straight face. "Hey Catra." She simply said before turning to look back to what she was looking at before, "Hey, I really didn't mean to hurt you." Catra whispered, Scorpia just frowned and looked at her. "Catra you didn't even hurt me when you left, well I mean it did hurt but you hurt me all throughout our relationship, remember?" She said, but she wasn't even being rude to Catra. The memories played harshly."Hey wildcat! Do I look good?" Scorpia giggled and gave a twirl, giving Catra a full view of the dress. Catra just shrugged and looked down at her feet, "Not as good as Adora," Scorpia frowned and her cheerful attitude disappeared.
Scorpia smiled and pointed with her pincer at the screen that read: 1 and all the couples screamed "Happy New Years!" And kissed their significant other. Scorpia leaned down to kiss the smaller woman but Catra just stared off into the distance and muttered, "Adora.."
Catra stumbled into the house, Scorpia following close behind. Ready to tend to any need her wildcat needed. Catra turned on her and pointed a clawed finger at her, "Piece of shit! You're not even as good as Adora, it's pathetic." The catgirl slurred and went to shove Scorpia, who looked depressed. "I'm sorry.." Scorpia whispered only to have Catra yell "Fuck off!" She threw the bottle down and it broke everywhere. Scorpia put Catra to bed and began to clean it up.
Catra blinked before her ears flattened in shame. "I know, and I am truly sorry for what I did, for what I caused. If I could take it all back I would, really!" Catra tried to convince the tall woman, who gave a sad smile. "I know you would, wildcat, but this is good for the both of us. I'm pursuing a happy relationship and you also get to be happy. We couldn't make each other happy and that's okay." Scorpia gently said, pulling Catra into a big hug, "I forgive you Catra!" She gave a laugh before releasing the small woman. Catra could only look up sadly, "Look I know I made some mistakes but are we still going to be friends?" She asked, almost desperately. Scorpia laughed loudly, "Of course wildcat, but it will take me some time to heal. Please understand that." She said sadly before walking away, giving one last look. "I'll see you around Catra!" She called before meeting up with Perfuma, a blush forming on her pale cheeks as the pale blonde gave her a hug and a gave her a flower. Catra's shoulders sagged in sadness and her ears flattened even more.
Adora's POV
Adora returned and found Catra, giving her a bracelet that said 'I love you to the moon and back' "Hey I'm back," she said out of breath. Catra only stared off into the distance with a visible frown on her face. "You okay?" She whispered as she turned Catra to face her. The catgirl just hugged the slightly taller woman and buried her face into her waist. Fiddling with her new bracelet before saying, "Take me home please." She whispered Adora nodded and went to grab Catra's hand but she just pulled it away.
As she drove home she went to say "I got int-" but was cut off by the harsh tone of Catra's voice, "Not now Adora. Just take me home...please." She trailed off at the end and Adora just nodded, dropping her off at her house and leaving. Adora sat parked in her driveway before sending a message to Catra, "I love you, if you need me don't be afraid to call me or text me." Adora entered her house and fiddled with her application paper, I hope she's okay.
