You cursed the warm feelings that would rise in your chest, they made work hard at the hospital and cold lonely nights even harder. You'd never been one to pine for another but then you'd met her. She was taller than average, blonde, undeniably pretty, and her name was Erina Pendleton.

By some strange kind of luck you'd slowly built up a friendship with her. You would invite each other over for tea or read something together. It would be perfect if not for the persistent hoping that the two of you would grow to be something more, for her to lean forward and kiss you like you'd shamefully daydreampt about.

She seemed to have the kind of eyes that could see right through a person. They were a clear blue and nearly always sad yet filled with such vibrant life. She also had courage in spades and would never shy away from gore to treat someone. Your worst fear was that she'd use both of those to figure out and condemn the way she made you feel. And you knew exactly how it'd go.

You'd be walking down the stretch of road that coincidentally was on both of your paths home and she'd stop to look at you with those eyes, clear anger and disgust on her face.

"I know about homosexual desires. Desires for me..." She would shiver at the thought. "I think our relationship should continue on as strictly business, nothing more." And that would be the end of it.

Incidentally, the two of you were currently walking down the exact road you'd been thinking of. The crunch of pebbles underneath your shoes filled the silence between you as the sun began to set.

Suddenly, she stopped and so did your heart. You knew it, she was going to-

"Would you stay the night at my home? It gets so lonely by myself and I have some... matters to discuss with you." Well at least she didn't seem to want you to leave and never speak to her again, that was reassuring, but what did she want to discuss with you? You let her lead you to her home as the sun sank lower on the horizon.

By the time the two of you had eaten dinner at her home the sky was dark. A candle flickered on the table between you and you again wondered what she wanted to talk to you about. For the moment though, you allowed yourself to admire her features in the dim candlelight. Her usually golden locs were set ablaze in orange, red, and bright yellow. After a few moments of admiring the curve of her lips you'd realized she was staring back at you. When had set your hand on the table? For that matter, when had she placed her hand so gently on yours?

"Y/N, I believe I've fallen in love." The way she spoke those words so sweetly, softly, it was making your heart melt. "And I must admit it is you that I long for."

Those words set alight a fiery passion in you. "Oh Erina, I feel just the same for you. I never thought you'd reciprocate." She smiled.

"Well then isn't this a pleasant surprise then." She took a look around at the near desolate house. "Oh, look at how late it's getting, would you care to join me in my room?"

You nodded and followed her though the house and into her room.

You'd seen this place before but never bathed in the dim candlelight. She turned around and pressed a tiny kiss to the tip of your nose and you reached up but gently ghost over the spot with your fingers. Right in front of you she began to shed her bulky outer dress and you could do but stand there awkwardly.

"Aren't you going to get ready for bed too?" She giggled now draped in only a light comfortable chemise.Blood rushed to your face.

" Ye- oh uh... yes." You tried to take off your outer dress as quickly as possible.

She was already on the bed with the blanket open, waiting for you. You climbed in next to her and she brought a hand up to brush some hair out of your hair and tuck it behind your ear.

Slowly her face came closer and she whispered. "May I kiss you? On your lips this time."

"Yes."

If you'd been more courageous you would've added a 'please' but she was coming in even closer and your eyelids were already dipping closed.Her lips against yours were soft and you let yourself sink into the feeling before pulling away. Her arm came to wrap around your waist and hold you close, your head close to her heart. You shut your eyes and nuzzled in closer as she placed a gentle kiss to the crown of your head.

"Goodnight my love."
