Janine silently walked out of the room and turned to close the door; when she felt it click into place, she touched her forehead to the cold wood with a sigh. Her heart was still racing as the endorphins from her earlier actions cursed through her veins; she felt the sun spreading its warmth all through her back as it shone through the window.
That got her attention. The sun didn't just directly shine into Court; there were heavy curtains on every window to prevent moroi from suffering from that discomfort. If she was feeling the sun on her back, either someone had made a mistake, or she was very much screwed.
She held her breath and slowly turned around to face a very surprised-looking Rose. "Mom?" The brunette frowned. "What are you doing here?" A hint of suspicion stained her tone as she leaned her back against the wall behind her.
How could she have forgotten that her daughter had the morning duty, that day? She should've remembered, because they had talked about it during breakfast – well, in reality, it was more like Rose complained about losing time with Dimitri during breakfast. Her mouth opened and closed while she fought to find a reasonable excuse for her presence.
"Is that Abe's room?" The girl's voice fished her from her thoughts. She was still staring at her in disbelief, her little foot tapping against the ground, marking her growing impatience at her mother's lack of response.
"What?" The red-head widened her eyes. "No! What would I be doing in your father's room?" The word stumbled out of her mouth, practically running into one another; the brunette just raised her eyebrows at her, clearly not buying the woman's story. "Seriously, Rose. Why would I-"
The door opened, revealing a half-dressed Abe, holding a bunch of dark fabric. "Janine, you forgot your…" He paused as his eyes met his daughter's. "Sweater." He finished, handing her ball of fabric.
"How nice of you to join us, old man. Care to explain to me what my mom was doing in your room?" Rose smiled sweetly, her voice dripping with sarcasm. Her mother blushed furiously, seeming to suddenly find the floor very interesting.
"Actually, I'm a little tired, so I think I'm just going to go back to bed…" The moroi turned around, ready to walk back into his room.
"Don't you dare." Janine hissed. "You are as much a part of this as I am." She raised her eyebrows at him, daring him to contradict her. He sighed and stayed. "Rose, your father and I… We…" She tried to find the right words. How do you tell your eighteen years old daughter that you and her father were having sex, without it being completely awkward?
Apparently, her words were not needed, because the girl suddenly widened her eyes in shock as realization dawned on her. "Oh God!" She groaned. "You know what? Forget about it; I don't really want to know."
"Rose-" Her mother tried.
"No. I'm just going to walk away so we can pretend that this never happened, ok?" The girl turned on her heels and started walking, without waiting for an answer from them.
"Abe, this is not my sweater." The red-head said after Rose was out of ear-shot. The bunched up fabric in her hands was silky and almost see-through.
"Well, did you want me to tell her that you forgot your teddy in my room?" Her raised an eyebrow as she laughed. "Exactly. This was already awkward enough."
The guardian shook her head in amusement, while he just smiled at her. She gave him a quick peck on the lips and started walking back to her own room, to catch some sleep before she had to work.
And this concludes today's episode of "Carla likes to create awkward situations"! lol, any thoughts you want to share? The review box is right there *points* I like to know what you guys think!
