Chapter 1

Waking up to the sounds of the birds chirping outside her dorm room window, the young woman managed a smile, especially when she took note of the fact she wasn't alone in her bed.

Said young woman was a student at the prestigious Blackwell Academy in Arcadia Bay, Oregon, she was eighteen years old and had long brown hair, brown eyes and pale skin as well as a skinny build. Her name was Samantha Myers.

The reason for her smile, the extra presence in her bed was in fact her girlfriend Steph Gingrich, also eighteen with shoulder length brown hair, brown eyes and light tan skin as well as a slender build with slight but noticeable curves.

Both young ladies lay in Sam's bed, currently unclothed due to their 'activities' the previous night.

'I never imagined anything like this would ever happen.' Sam reflected with a small smile.

She and Steph had been dating for around a year now, Sam was still amazed at how she and Steph just seemed to end up drawn to each other, both had been attracted to different people before and Sam hadn't even found any interest in girls before Steph.

Still Sam had to admit, she felt happier than ever. 'We just...seem to fit and now, now we've even gone and...'

She blushed at the memory of their lovemaking before biting her lip as she recalled one unfortunate detail, they still hadn't told either of their families about them dating, in fact, Sam hadn't even come out yet.

She was pulled out of her musings however by the sound of Steph waking up.

"Good morning." She greeted her girlfriend, the smile back on her face.

Steph grinned and tightened her grip on Sam slightly. "Morning, beautiful."

"Steph..." Sam whined.

Steph just shook her head. "No babe, I told you, I'm gonna keep saying it till you believe it."

Sam just rolled her eyes sitting up, not caring that she was naked, the only person to see her was Steph who was also naked and after last night, Sam wasn't really embarrassed. Steph had certainly proved she loved her, body and soul, with the body getting special attention last night.

"So what are we gonna do, I mean, you remember what day it is?" Sam asked.

Steph nodded. "Yup, February 14th and a nice day too outside...perfect for Blackwell's Valentine's Day theme."

They both shared a smile at that, Blackwell had a special theme for Valentine's Day where couples were encouraged to dress in identical or similar clothes, so long as one item of clothing could be considered to share some sort of theme with their partners, the couple were considered to have made the effort to be part of the theme. Doing this was optional but a lot of couples enjoyed it and always put the effort in.

Sam thought for a moment. "It's our first Valentine's Day as a couple, so maybe we should try it, but what could we even wear?"

Steph's eyes lit up, and Sam knew right away she had an idea.

Steph's idea was, surprising to say the least.

"Okay, this may sound a little silly, especially given our usual clothing tastes, but...I'm willing to try something different, especially for you."

She kissed Sam's nose as she said that last part.

Sam couldn't help but giggle. "Quit teasing and just tell me."

Steph shrugged. "Okay, how about those...skirts I saw in one of your clothes drawers, now of course I don't have one of my own so, I'll need to borrow the other one."

"You want us to wear, I don't really wear those, I mean..." Sam began but seeing Steph's face she couldn't continued and sighed. "Alright, let's go for it. We've got the rest of clothes around here anyway."

Steph nodded and both girls got out of bed, with Sam fetching the aforementioned skirts and soon they got dressed. Sam bit her lip as she stood before her mirror, checking her outfit so far.

She had pulled on a pair of pink panties and a black bra, as had Steph although Steph's bra and panties were both black. She now stood in the black mid-thigh length skirt, a black undershirt and a white tank-top.

"I don't know, I still feel naked..." She remarked. "This is why I didn't wear them, I think they're too short..."

She turned to Steph who was smiling, and looking amazing in Sam's opinion, in her own black mid-thigh length skirt, along with a red T-shirt with a 20 sided dice design and a grey beanie.

"Luckily I have a solution, if you're that worried about showing your legs, sometimes just a hint is enticing enough while still giving you the modesty you desire, right." Steph remarked before pulling something else out.

Sam couldn't help but smile and agreed, feeling more relieved.

As such they finished their outfits off, both adding black thigh-high socks before Sam pulled on her blue flats and Steph her red converse.

Now only about an inch of bare skin showed between the socks and the hem of the skirt and while Sam could see the appeal, she was also glad that she didn't feel quite as exposed.

Satisfied she took Steph's hand and enjoyed the brief chaste kiss they shared before they left the dorm room, heading out to begin their day.
