So...it's that time again. The time where I start a new story on some new gay thing I've fallen in love with and get sidetracked so I'm not working on older stories. Yep. Anyways, as you can tell by the tags, this is an AuroraxMulan(aka Sleeping Warrior) story. Well, actually, this will be a series of one-shots.
Ratings will vary, overall story rated T until I have a chapter that's really M. Ratings will be at the top of each chapter, as well as a few other things, such as setting(storybrooke vs fairy tale land), relationships(if Phillip is there/with Aurora/if Mulan is with Aurora), and maybe a prompt. Most of these will be AU unless it says otherwise-just go with the flow guys. Also, assume Mulan has her hair down or in a normal ponytail. None of that poofy warrior hairstyle.
So without any further ado, here is the first one-shot!(It's rather short.)
Setting: Storybrooke, Aurora and Mulan crossed over in S2.
Relationship: Have been dating for a while, Phillip is nowhere and that's great.
Rating: T, nothing explicit...implied nudity/smex, that's why T...
Prompt: ...just...waking up next to her.
Mulan took a deep breath, raising her arms above her head. She stretched her legs out to the edge of the bed, smiling as she felt another foot nudge her own. Mulan turned over, nuzzling into the back of Aurora's neck. She wrapped an arm around her girlfriend's waist and pulled her closer, getting a mumble in response. Mulan smiled, opening her eyes to see a mass of hair. She raised her head to look at the clock-it was rather late in the morning.
I'm gonna have to leave for work soon...
Mulan thought for a moment, then carefully removed her arm from around Aurora's waist. She slid out from under the covers, trying to be silent. A grumble from behind told her she was not very successful.
"Mmm...Lan...where are you..." Mulan chuckled as she pulled a shirt on, looking for her belt. "Here, Rora. I gotta go to work, okay? You should sleep in." Aurora turned over and glowered at Mulan, still half asleep. She held up a hand and Mulan took it, sliding onto the bed.
"Good morning, Princess," Mulan said, kissing her on the forehead. Aurora sat up, pulling the covers up to her chest.
"Morning, Ping," Aurora said pointedly. Mulan's mouth twitched into a smile for a second, then she rolled her eyes.
"My apologies. Good morning, Aurora." Aurora grinned, leaning in for a longer kiss."That's better, isn't it?" Aurora breathed, still just an inch away from Mulan's face. "Yes, but...I do have to go to work now."
Aurora pouted, leaning into Mulan's arms. "Why~...why work, though. We don't need to really pay for anything, everyone in town knows everyone."
Mulan smiled, pressing a kiss into Aurora's hair. "Because being a deputy is important. We many know everyone, but things change and people do things that need to be stopped. Also, asking everyone for help but not helping ourselves? That's-"
"Dishonorable and lazy, I know." Aurora sighed. Mulan let her go and she dropped back onto her side, watching as her warrior tried to find her shoes.
"What time will you be back?"
"Um...it depends, but before 8, probably. Snow has decided to throw another frivolous party, so Ruby and I will be providing security just in case. Well, just me, really, Ruby will most likely get absorbed into the party..."
Aurora giggled. "There it is. The warrior side is back."
Mulan looked at Aurora in confusion. "Back? Did "it" go somewhere?"
"Whenever you're in bed, or with just me...you're softer. Less...fighter, more protector. And you seem..." Aurora stopped, blushing. "I seem what?"
"...happier."
Mulan started in surprise, looking away, but couldn't help a small smile.
"Well...you're right, but I do have to reprimand you for something," Mulan said, kicking her shoes away and turned back towards Aurora.
"Oh? What is that?" Aurora grinned as Mulan crawled on top of her, kissing her forehead.
"I'm definitely going to be late for work now."
Ta-da! *holds pose then realizes no one can actually see me* Oh. Yes. *clears throat awkwardly* Well that wasn't awful! I think? Anyways, this was the one to kick it off, next chapter is actually already written, should be up right after this one...it's M. Anyways, if you want me to do a specific prompt, have concerns about the characters becoming OOC or anything else, please send me a message/comment. Have a nice day!
