Sinful Obsessions: Drabbles for Ruby & Bela
Title: You Slow it Down
POV: Ruby's
Song: "Look After You" ~ The Fray
Hours later, as they're recovering and gathering back their warmth in the nicest motel room she could find, Ruby holds Bela in her arms on the bed, silent and in a daze.
Patiently waiting for Bela to make her way back to reality is getting mildly annoying, but it's also giving the demon a chance to show her just how much she means in her fucked up life.
How much she really means to her fucked up self.
Planting another gentle kiss on Bela's forehead, she pulls the human closer, looking down into her eyes briefly to confirm she's awake.
Bela has recently ceased her shivering, now giving into her needs and holding onto any part of Ruby she can reach.
Her head is resting on Ruby's stomach, wet hair soaking through her shirt but the other woman doesn't seem to mind.
If it'll help Bela warm up, it's a small price to pay.
With her free hand, she pushes back her blonde hair, staring out the window as if expecting to see someone there.
She wishes she had closed the blinds, but it's too late now.
Bela is settled and comfy and close to her.
All she'll ever need.
"You know, thinking's overrated."
Bela glances up at her slowly, green eyes innocent and slightly scared.
"Talking's much more suitable", Ruby continues, staring back out the window.
She's giving Bela an opportunity, that's all.
No pressure, no push, no breaking apart anytime soon.
"How long?" Bela whispers, licking her pale pink lips.
"For what?"
"Were you planning on waiting?"
The demon turns back to her, "Probably forever."
Bela nods and drifts off as if it's no big deal, but Ruby knows those two words mean everything to her.
Ruby's rapid heartbeat slows down.
She melts into Bela's sleeping form instantly.
