Pacifica Northwest was never one to back down from a challenge. So that's why she was here, with none other than Mabel Pines, having a sleepover. Why she was here was a fairly easy thing to grasp. But why she was blushing whenever Mabel's nightgown went higher than her thighs was something that was much harder to explain.
"Pacifica. Pacifica. Earth to Pacifica. Do you read me?" Pacifica's eyes snap up to meet Mabel's before she quickly looks down again, a slight blush adorning her cheeks. "Good to have you back! I thought I had bored you already!" Pacifica looks back up at Mabel and gives a small smile.
"Yeah. So, what are we even doing? I don't want my time to be wasted." Not that spending time with Mabel counts as wasting time to Pacifica.
"We could do karaoke for a while."
"That actually sounds like an okay idea." Mabel beams. Like, actually, physically, beams. Pacifica wasn't sure that was actually possible until now.
"Great! Let's do it!" And so they spend the next few hours doing karaoke.
"What's your favourite colour?"
"Really? You're going with a colour question? Very creative."
"Shut up. So, what is it?"
"Pink."
"Cool! Mine is red!"
They're laying on the floor, asking questions. Mabel wants to know more so that she can be closer to Pacifica and Pacifica doesn't really care much. That might be because they started drinking a while ago. First it was a shot before each song and now it's a shot before asking each question.
"Who was your first kiss?"
"Mermondo. He's a merman."
"Oookay."
"What about you?"
"Huh?"
"Who was your first kiss?" Pacifica swallows awkwardly before answering.
"No one." She says quietly.
"You've never been kissed?!" Mabel asks in shock.
"Who cares if I've been kissed or not?! I don't!"
"Whoa! Calm down. I was just surprised, that's all."
"Surprised?"
"Yeah. You're really pretty and I'm surprised that no one's kissed you yet."
"Pretty?" Pacifica asks.
"Yeah. Pretty. So what?!"
"Hey Mabel?"
"Yeah." Pacifica swallows. Afterwards she's not sure if it was the alcohol or something else as she leans forwards and presses her lips against Mabel's. She feels Mabel staying completely still and immediately pulls back.
"I - um - sorry! I just thought that maybe you'd want to and you were nice and I'm sorry and -"
"Whoa, it's alright. You just took me by surprise with all that tongue and stuff."
"So you're not... angry, are you?"
"'course not! Besides..." She presses her lips against Pacifica's. Pacifica immediately reciprocates. Their hair ends up tangled in the other's fingers as they grip each other tight.
Early in the morning Pacifica opens her eyes to see her and Mabel curled up against each other. She smiles and closes her eyes again. Maybe loosing that bet wasn't so bad after all.
