Evelynn's POV (late morning, the very next day):
The loud beeping of her cellphone stirred the magenta-haired woman in a matter of a few moments. Evelynn groaned silently, pulled the additional pillow on to of her head, and tried to forget about the annoying piece of technology.
After a couple of prolonged moment that felt like ages, the damned phone stopped making sounds. The lawyer sighed with a hint of relief. The woman tried to fall asleep once again. The pleasurable warmth could be felt on her back and on her stomach. Akali was wrapped around Evelynn's frame as if she was a human-sized teddy bear. Eve could not unglue a broad smile off of her face... she was so happy that the girl felt comfortable enough with her... to fall asleep. The pleasant silence fell upon them.
The situation did not last more than a couple of short-lived moments. After just a few moments of silence, the phone started to ring again.
With a groan of dissatisfaction, the golden-eyed goddess reached out for the damned piece of technology. Her sight was still a bit fuzzy, so it took her a couple of seconds before the displayed label was registered by her mind and processed. It was Fiora. "Why the fuck is that bitch calling me in the morning?" Evelynn nagged before yawning.
"What do you want... bitch?" the lawyer asked as soon as she accepted the call.
"Bitch? You have the audacity to call me bitch, you know?" the headmistress chuckled. "But... back to the topic, where is Akali?"
"Hmmm?" the surprised siren hummed. "She's lying next to me... why do you ask?" the magenta-haired lawyer replied after peeking a look at the still asleep teenager who was cuddling to her side.
"Ehhh... do you know what time it is?" Fiora immediately asked.
"Not really... does it matter?"
"To me, yes... Akali should have been in school for at least 2 hours. She has never been late or ditched the classes, so her teachers started to ask questions," the head of the school explained briefly.
"Ehhh... it's my fault," Eve sighed. "You see... we were meant to go for karaoke yesterday, but long story short... we ended up with a movie night. I'm not really sure at what time she fell asleep," the woman developed her response.
"Hmm... ehhh... I should not do it, but... you can give her a pass... screw it... I can give her a free pass today," Fiora was wondering aloud.
"What are you talking about?" the confused golden-eyed woman asked.
"I'll make sure that she isn't going to be punished for her absent today... but... I want one thing in return," the headmistress said in a quiet tone.
"My... my... my... I haven't thought that you were interested in her," the magenta-haired diva giggled. "But the answer is no," she added firmly.
"What?! I wasn't talking about that," Fiora slightly rose her voice. "I wanted you to make sure that she'll be present at the match later today... that's all."
