Sleeping Warrior Week part 2 - Day 1: College AU
Mulan is just a common college girl who needed the help of alcohol.
Oh god. She was so drunk. And she knew it. Had she ever been this drunk? Well no. Tipsy, yes. Drunk? Never. She was Mulan Hua. Loss of control was a term that was so far away from her that she'd have to put herself in a canon to shoot herself to reach it.
Wait. That didn't make much sense did it.
"Makes sense to me," grumbled Mulan as she held onto the nearby wall. Oh god why. Why was everything so blurry and moving. This all hurt her head. Her stomach mostly. Where was she even going. Drunk Mulan only had questions. She had no answers. She kind of missed her sober self now.
Mulan stumbled across the hallway a few more steps, stopping at that door. Aurora's door. Was this a bad idea? Probably. Will she regret it in the morning? Mayhaps. Mulan sniggered. Mayhaps. She overheard someone - Ruby, was it? - use the word earlier explaining that it was a mix of maybe and perhaps. She recalled her friend enthusiastically explain it was a better word because it implied two words' meanings. Mulan shook her head, still giggling. God she's so drunk.
Then, abruptly, she took in a big breath and stood up straight. She looked squarely at Aurora's door. If anyone passed by and saw Mulan, they'd guess she was sober. But if they were closer and saw Mulan's face they'd think differently as did Aurora when she opened the door after a particular drunk someone knocked.
"Mulan?"
Aurora was surprised and so very much confused. For starters, she was not expecting Mulan to give her room a visit in the middle of the night. And another thing, Mulan was drunk! Mulan never got drunk. Tipsy, perhaps, but never drunk. She tentatively reached out and put her hand on Mulan's shoulder. Her friend had been shallowly breathing and just looking at her for the past few minutes.
And then it happened. Mulan kissed Aurora. Sober Mulan would have been thinking so many what if's: What if Aurora has a boyfriend? What if Aurora is absolutely straight? What if Aurora hates her after? But all of that just didn't matter to drunk Mulan. All that mattered was that Mulan had been able to push the two of them back into the privacy of Aurora's single. All that mattered was that Aurora was kissing back Mulan.
Aurora had her hands entangled in Mulan's hair. Her hands caressed Mulan's neck, jawline, and cheeks. Aurora pulled away when she reached Mulan's cheeks. She understood why their mouths would be so wet at the moment. Though, She dully noted that wasn't the only wet part of her at the moment. But why were Mulan's cheeks wet?
Mulan was crying. Even Mulan herself didn't realize it until they stopped kissing. Until she saw Aurora's worried face. Until Aurora's thumbs wiped beneath her eyes and she kissed both of her eyes tenderly. Aurora gave a final chaste kiss on the lips. Thankfully the tears had stopped for now. But both knew a question was left in the air, unasked.
Mulan leaned forward, resting her forehead on Aurora's. Aurora noticed her friend was breathing shallowly again. In attempts to soothe her, Aurora hugged her. She tried to ease the tense back muscles by moving her hands up and down. She waited. Until Mulan was ready.
"I want you."
Mulan whispered.
"I need you."
Another whisper let out like a breath.
"Will you let me have you?"
A question she dared to ask.
"Will you let me be yours?"
A vow as if her life depended on it.
Aurora, teary-eyed herself, kissed Mulan again. To keep the sanctity, the privacy, the intimacy of their night, Aurora kept her voice low. She let the words flow from her mouth into Mulan's.
"There's no other way I would want it to be."
And the girls giggled, kissing like there's no tomorrow to face. Embracing each other. Enjoying each other's warmth. To finish the perfect night, Mulan groaned. She then ran into the bathroom to intimately "talk" with the toilet how well her "drunkapade" with Aurora had went. Aurora of course, watched the entire scene unfold with amusement.
