Author's Note: For a long time this drabble couldn't decide which direction it was going to go. Either Mia and Zenina were going to be implacable enemies, or they were going to be best friends. Took them a while to make up their minds. I had no idea how this drabble would end up; I was quite surprised with the way this turned out.
Please, don't ask me why I chose this song for this drabble. I have no defense, either for the song itself, the original artist, or the fact that I'm using the cover.

"I need you to explain your relationship with Shawn."
Zenina blinked as she was cornered in Shawn's kitchen by his new girlfriend. Well… this was awkward.
"What do you mean?" Zenina asked, making her tea.
"I know that Shawn's not gonna give you up," Mia elaborated, biting her lip. "But I don't want to share him. I need to understand why you're always gonna be around."
Fair enough.
"I'm sure he's told you, it's not love keeping us together," Zenina said, offering Mia a cup. "He loves you, Amelia. I've Seen you together."
"You have?" Mia asked, distracted despite herself.
Zenina nodded. "I'm his possession. You're his treasure. There's no competition between us, I promise you."
"You don't want him," Mia confirmed.
"No," Zenina said. "And he doesn't want me. Not for me, anyways. He wants me for what I can show him, that's all. But you? He wants you simply for you. And I'm happy for you both. It's about time he found someone like you."
"Really?" Mia asked softly.
Zenina nodded. "I've known Shawn a long time," she said. "He's never cared about someone as much as you. You're very good for him."
"Thank you," Mia said softly.
And just like that, they went from being enemies to becoming friends and staunch allies.
