This chapter mentions drug use.
Hope you enjoy and have a nice day.
Laura woke up to a phone ringing.
"Hello?" Laura answered sleepily.
"Hey cutie, it's been too long," Carmilla said.
"Carm?" Laura sat up.
"I hate to tell you this way, but I'm in town."
"Where? It's two in the morning."
"In the police station, I need you to bail me out. I have the money, I just need you to bring it."
"I don't know if I should. You did kind of leave me."
"Laura, can we please talk about this when you pick me up? Just please get me the fuck out of here," Carmilla pleaded.
"Fine."
Carmilla told Laura everything she needed to know to get the money. Laura gave the money to the police to release Carmilla.
Carmilla hugged Laura when she got out, "Thank you so much."
"Start explaining things," Laura said while they walked to her car.
"I'm not proud of myself, but I got arrested for drugs," Carmilla said nervous of Laura's reaction. Laura was silent. "Laura?"
"Carmilla, just shut up," Laura said when in her car. She had a death grip on her steering wheel.
Carmilla was silent the drive to Laura's house.
"Have fun on the couch," Laura said before walking to her room.
Carmilla was actually alone in this town. No one wanted her.
The morning came and Carmilla barely got any sleep. Laura walked out of her room with red eyes and walked into the kitchen.
"I've really fucked up," Carmilla thought.
Laura sat down in the sofa chair next to the couch.
"Please just tell me I've fucked up," Carmilla said.
"You fucked up when you left two years ago. You royally fucked up getting into drugs. You ultimately fucked up by coming to me," Laura said angrily. "What went through your head? 'Oh, I know who would bail me out as long as they don't know what I was charged with. Her parents were druggies, but she loves me so it's alright.' Carmilla, that really wasn't. I missed you every goddamn day and this is how I get to see you again. I fell in love with a girl named Carmilla Karnstein who lost her father and was living with a verbally abusive mother, but she would focus on making me happy. I wasn't happy until she was too. She left to get away from this place, not to become something she swore she would protect me from. I helped her when she needed it, and now I really wonder if she's proud of herself. Huh? Are you fucking proud of yourself?"
"No, I've hurt the only one I love."
"I've got to go to work. You know the rule of this house," Laura said before walking out.
"I love you," Carmilla said after Laura walked out.
Laura came back home to see her house clean and Carmilla on the couch with Skylar.
"Trying to get on my good side?" Laura asked walking over to her.
"Yes because you're someone I can't stand to be angry at me. I still mean it as the day I first realized it, I love you, Laura Hollis. I know I fucked up, but I want to please try again."
"I'm not jumping back into a relationship with you."
"I'm not asking you too. Can we be like we're in high school? Start from there?"
"I guess," Laura said with a smile forming. "I love you too, Carmilla Karnstein. It's good to know you're still partially there."
