A/N: A/N: Written for femslash100's drabbletag for the prompt "scars". Had some trouble and ended up deleting the first time I tried to post. Fingers crossed all goes well this time!

Already nearly touching, eyes intent on the lines crisscrossing Cassandra's skin, Stephanie asks, "Can I?"
Cassandra opens her body after a moment's hesitation, shivering at the first brush of skin on skin. Stephanie's fingertips follow the trails of scars, the contact feather light and yet so very present.
"When I was little," Stephanie murmurs, looking into her eyes, "my mom would kiss the hurt away."
Cassandra considers saying, That's medically unsound, or, I'm not little. She considers lying, saying, It doesn't hurt.
Instead, Cass says, "That would take a lot of kisses."
Stephanie's lips quirk, then set to the task.
