A three-part, short story following Leela Lomax and Sienna Blake. I own none of the characters!

Stay the Night

Before

Pulling the bottle of beer up to her lips, the blonde giggles uncontrollably. She's alone with Sienna, her best friend. They've seen each other little recently but have enjoyed a day of catching up. Sienna's drunk too, dancing in circles to the music beaming out of the speakers. Nobody else is home. Peri's with Tom and Leela doesn't know where Tegan, Rose and Ziggy are but hasn't thought much about it. Sienna's captivated her attention and the alcohol in her system isn't helping either.

Leela holds her hand out, allowing Sienna to pull her from her seat and up to her stumbling feet.

"No…No, come 'ere and let me show you 'ow it's really done," Leela begs with a slur, once she's on her feet. She takes Sienna's second hand and moves drunkenly to the beats of the music.

Sienna catches Leela's eye, their eye colliding and snapping into each other's view. Shyly, Sienna looks downwards, scooping her hair behind her ear to avoid the moment, but Leela laughs fiercely. The brunette takes her glass to her lips gracefully, sipping her wine; a classier drinker than her blonde, tom-boy friend.

"Right, I'm so outta it I gotta head to bed. You stayin' the night though, yeah?" Leela asks, turning to switch the music off. With the sound of it the neighbours would surely not be impressed. Sienna nods. She barely knows where she is. "Ya gonna 'ave to share my room 'cause Teags could be back any minute. It'll be fun…like a girlie sleepover." She was less drunk than Sienna who had begun to stroke her wine glass.

"I feel like a butterfly around you," Sienna mumbled, though with her eyes still gazing at the glass despite her voice directing itself at Leela. The blonde walks closer to Sienna and places her hands on her friend's shoulders.

"Come on you," Leela persuades, with a loud giggle of her own. She pushes Sienna in the direction of the stairs. Up just three, Sienna stumbles, grabbing Leela by the waist unintentionally.

"Woops. Thanks for catching me." Sienna scrunches her nose up in a cute manner as she clings onto Leela's checkered top. Her eyes accidentally glance down it, happy the top buttons are undone but she averts them once she's re-gained her balance. Leela puts one arm around her and uses the other to hold Sienna's hand. After giggles, the exchange of many flirty looks and a good five minutes the two make it to the top and disappear off into Leela's room.

As soon as they're in, Sienna throws herself down onto the bed, hitting the pillow. Leela's soon to follow, though in a less humorous fashion. Almost at the very same time both the girls roll onto their sides so they're facing each other.
