summary: love can be the most simple and most complicated thing on one's life. a collection of catradora one-shots.
notes: this is a collection of catradora one-shots based on the 2018 catradora week prompts. i still don't know if i'm going to write one one one-shot for every theme (Horde/Rebellion, etc) or if i'm gonna chosse just one of the two, my muse is very indecisive (the little bitch). Soo hope you like it, comments are my life energy, and with that...
Horde
Catra started sleeping with Adora when they were 7. The nights at the Horde were cold and lonely, and when the memories of Shadow Weaver's cruelty were stronger. She curled on her bed thinking about how the sorceress always seems to find a way to blame her for every little thing, how much it hurts to don't have anyone to protect her. Except it was not true, not really at least. Adora was always there. Sometimes, Catra wanted to be mad at Adora; she always around being perfect and never blamed for anything, receiving endless praise. But she couldn't force herself to feel this way, because in the end of the day it would be her praise that Adora liked the most to hear, and the her smile was the most beautiful of all.
So now, in the middle of the night, when Catra felt so alone and empty, she wanted Adora to smile at her, and make things better. And that was the thought that made her go down to the other girl's bunk. At first, she didn't really stop to think about it, she just wanted the warmth and reassurance that Adora made her feel most of the time. She saw Adora sleeping peacefully, a small smile on her face, and couldn't stop herself from smiling a little, too. She laid down on the end of the bed, trying not to disturb Adora, but it was useless: the blond girl moved and looked at her, blinking. Catra looked back at her, holding her breath; what if Adora didn't want her around? What if she thought Catra was crazy for sneaking on her bed at the middle of the night? But the anger and the confusion didn't come. Adora seemed to recognize her and, with a sleepy smile on Catra's direction, laid back on her bed and was sleeping, just like that. Catra let out her breath and curled herself up on the bed, feeling the sleep come to her easily now that Adora was around and didn't seem to mind having the cat girl sleeping on her bed. And she had smiled. Catra scooted a little close to her and closed her eyes.
As long as they were together, everything would be okay.
