Finally, Elaine had to pull away, drawing in a deep, desperate breath. She was almost unable to– that was the extent of Veronica's grip on her. Veronica.. that perfect girl. It was unreal, the way she made her feel, and she was addicted, badly.
Veronica smiled lazily at Elaine, brushing a hand through her hair. “We should get to our homework eventually.” She let out a tiny laugh, even though homework was the last thing she wanted to do.
Elaine stuck out her bottom lip in a pout, leaning into Veronica's touch. "Do we have to?"
Stupid homework… ruins a perfectly good make-out session.
“Unfortunately we do,” Veronica sighed, her hand moving on its own to cup Elaine’s cheek, “But we can takes breaks every once and a while, right?” Her lip quirked upwards slightly as she finished her sentence.
"Of course," Elaine breathed, tilting her head to lightly kiss each of Veronica's fingertips. "How could I ever say no to you?"
Veronica smiled, a small shiver going down her spine. “Looks like I got you all wrapped up around my finger,” She joked, eyes sparkling. But eventually, she forced herself to pull away and grab their backpacks so they could start.
Elaine knew Veronica was joking, but wholeheartedly agreed with the statement. "You do…." she replied quietly, sitting cross-legged on the bed. "What homework do we have?"
“Looks like…” Veronica pulled out her planner, directing her mind to finally focus on school work now, “Pre calculus, English, and a little bit of Physics,” She sighed- Veronica hoped the homework wouldn’t eat up all their time together, “Which one shall we start on?”
“Let’s start with English,” Elaine sighed, already missing her girlfriend’s warmth.
(Timeskip over the homework part?)
Veronica slowly closed her binder, mental exhaustion dragging her down. It had been more homework than she expected. Veronica leaned over and ended up resting her head in Elaine’s lap, her eyes closing shut as she murmured, “I’m so tired…”
Elaine ran her fingers through Veronica’s hair, cupping her cheek gently and softly swiping her thumb over the other girl’s cheek. “Do you want to sleep?” she asked, tone laced with concern.
“Yeah,” Veronica mumbled and let out an uneven sigh. As much as she wanted to stay up and enjoy the at least another half hour with Elaine, she couldn’t keep her eyes open. “We can…” Veronica interrupted herself with a yawn, “…share the bed if you want…”
"Sure," Elaine replied softly, carefully lifting Veronica off her lap. "Where's your bathroom? I should probably get changed into pyjamas." She continued to run her fingers through her girlfriend's hair, doing her best to soothe her.
“Just down the hall and to the left,” Veronica mumbled tiredly, “You can borrow on of my pajamas in the top drawer of my dresser if you need.” She didn’t even feel like getting changed she was so tired. Maybe I’m just not cut out for any of this…
“Thanks,” she replied softly, kissing her girlfriend’s forehead. She grabbed hold of the pyjamas and slipped from the room. Once inside the bathroom, Elaine dressed quickly, finding herself unable to be away from Veronica for long.
Veronica slowly grabbed a pair of pyjamas and slipped off her out layer of clothes- leaving her bra and underwear on. She lazily changed, not really minding the chance that Elaine might walk back in at any moment. Veronica got on her pyajama shorts, but took her time getting on the shirt.
Elaine slipped out of the washroom with her clothes in hand, running a hand through her tangled hair. Forgetting that Veronica was probably changing as well, she placed a hand on the doorknob of her room and pushed the door open. When her eyes fell on Veronica, half dressed, she froze, a blush lighting up her cheeks.
Veronica lazily slipped on the shirt, blushing a little herself but didn’t care either way. She even chuckled softly, then added, “I don’t mind, you know.” She flipped back the blankets, snuggling herself into the bed before looking to Elaine with a small smile.
Elaine opened her mouth to say something, but no sound came out, so she just ducked her head in embarrassment and approached the bed. Veronica looked so adorable in pyjamas, a lazy sort of beauty, that it was difficult to resist kissing her again.
Veronica couldn’t help but feel a tingle in her heart for causing Elaine to blush. and a stupid, lazy smile was suddenly glued to her face. “I love you,” She murmured, “Now come here, I wanna cuddle before I pass out from exhaustion.” Veronica told her with a smile, reaching out one arm.
Elaine obliged with a racing heart, settling under the covers so that Veronica was spooning her. Her hands found her girlfriend's and wrapped them loosely around her waist, she felt strangely shy all of a sudden.
Veronica smiled a little, wrapped her arms the rest of the way around Elaine. She kissed Elaine’s shoulder softly, exhaustion was the only reason she didn’t start kissing her all over. “I love you,” She murmured as her eyes dripped closed.
“Good night, Veronica..” she murmured, snuggling into her warmth. She sighed contentedly, letting her eyes fall shut.
