Dreaming of Laura was great and waking up next to her would have been even greater if it wasn't for the loud knock on the door starling me.
Who the hell is knocking this early?
I debate ignoring it and falling back asleep with Laura but a second knock destroys that thought from my mind.
This better be important.
I sigh as I carefully move Laura's arm off my waist and I sneak out of bed, trying my best not to disturb her.
She's so beautiful
I fling the door open ready to tell whoever is knocking to stop, but my words are caught in my throat as Danny stands in front of me, glairing. LaFontaine and Perry hide behind her, knowing to stay out of her way.
"Where's Laura?" Danny growls at me.
"Well we were sleeping so it would be wonderful if you would come back at a later time." I say.
"A later time? It's Noon Carmilla, she doesn't sleep in." Danny says as she begins to try and push her way past me into the room. Before she can fully enter, Perry grabs her arm and pulls her back into the hall.
"We were just checking up on Laura, she seemed pretty intoxicated last night." Perry says, giving Danny a watchful glare.
"Yeah, and we had to make sure you didn't kill her" LaFontaine adds, causing me and Perry to glare at them, but also causing Danny to tense up.
"We will come back later to see You and Laura" Perry says and before anyone has a chance to respond she turns them around and they disappear down the hall. I close the door and sigh as I lean against it, taking a sleeping Laura in.
She's even cute when she drools
I find myself lost in a book when Laura begins to stir. I put my book down and grab the cup of water and the pills I prepared earlier and head over to her.
"Good Morning Cupcake" I say, watching her eyes flutter open, causing my heart to flutter too.
"Ugh what time is it?" She groans. I quickly glance at the clock and to my surprise it's been an hour.
"It's around One O'clock." I say handing her the water and pills which she takes gratefully. "How's your head feeling?
"It feels as if I have been hit by a train" She says shoving her face in the pillow causing me to laugh.
"Well you did drink a lot last night, so I'm not surprised at all." I say. I watch her eyes take me in, looking me up and down. I feel my heart stop as her eyes land on my scar.
Does she remember?
"I'm sorry" She whispers to me.
"Don't be" I say, giving her a small smile. "It was so long ago, I don't mind talking about it."
Can she tell I'm lying?
"I'm sorry that it happened to you." She says, giving me a small smile.
"I appreciate that" I say softly. I open my mouth to say more but before I can there is a knock at the door.
It's only been an hour, can they chill
I walk over and open it, seeing the same three people standing there as I did an hour earlier.
Are you kidding me?
"Hey Carmilla, is Laura up yet?" Perry asks, a lot nicer than Danny would have. She must have gotten a stern talking from Perry after what happened.
"Hey guys" Laura says before I can reply. She springs up from the bed, but before she takes a step, she winces and sits back down on the bed, causing all of us to rush to her. I wrap my arm around her waist and steady her on the bed, before moving it to be rubbing her back.
"Laura? Are you okay?" Danny asks, moving quickly towards Laura, obviously trying to get me away from her, but neither me or Laura let her.
"Yeah, just a hangover" Laura says, causing Danny to visibly relax and sit down next to her.
"It's her first handover" I say, causing Danny to glair at me.
"Do you need anything?" Perry asks drawing our attention to her on the other side of the dorm.
"No, Carmilla gave me water and pills so I'm just waiting for those to help my headache" She says, smiling at Perry.
She has the most beautiful smile
"We came by around an hour ago to make sure you were still alive." LaFontaine says with a laugh.
"They wanted to make sure that I didn't kill you" I say, causing Laura to laugh too.
"And thankfully she didn't" Perry chimes in happily, causing me to roll my eyes.
"I haven't killed anybody, yet" I say giving Laura a small smile, which she returns and I feel my heart skip a beat.
"Yet" LaFontaine says.
"So," Danny says awkwardly. "We were wondering if you two wanted to come to the café with us." I can tell she doesn't want me there but is forced to ask me anyway because I'm here. My immediate response is to say no but before I am able to speak Laura turns and looks at me.
She's giving me damn puppy dog eyes
And it's working…
What the hell is she doing to me…
"Yeah that sounds fun, I have to get ready so how about we meet you down there in twenty minutes?" There's that beautiful smile again.
"Sounds great, well see you two down there" LaFontaine says, and with that they exit the room, leaving Laura and me alone.
"An outing with Athena and the ginger twins, how exciting, not that I had a say in it miss 'well be there in twenty'" I say blander than I expected.
I hope she knows I'm flirting
"It won't be too bad, plus you get to spend time with me" She says giving me a smile
Is she flirting back?
I sure hope so
"I guess I can try to endure it" I say, rolling my eyes, but my lips tug into a smile. "How's your head feeling?"
"I think the medicine is kicking it"
"Okay, should we get ready? We only have twenty minutes" I say with another smile. She nods and I stand up and offer her my arm. She leans on me and stands up and moves to her dresser and then to the bathroom to change.
I take my time changing and then make my way to the bathroom, knocking softly before I hear 'Come in'
My knees get weak when I see her, causing me to lean on the doorframe as I look at her.
She's seriously stunning
Her scars are even beautiful
Wait, scar?
"Can I ask you something?" I find myself suddenly saying.
"Yeah, what's up" I can tell she's nervous, I don't think I've sounded this serious before.
"I told you about my scar, I want to know about one of yours" I say in nearly a whisper.
What's happening to me… I'm not normally like this
"One of my scars…" She says almost as quietly as I did.
She knows which one I'm talking about
"What about the one on your leg?"
"I can't believe you can even see that one, it's so faint." She says with a laugh, causing my demeanor to soften.
"I guess I know what I'm looking for" I say with a smirk
Totally not looking at her ass
I mean I was but anyway
"How about I tell you on the way down there?" She says as she moves past me, her hand grazing mine. She grabs her jacket and we head towards the Café.
