"Where am I…?"

Looking to her left, nothing was there. Only darkness and the echoes of her voice.

"Powder…?"

For some reason, panic overcame her body. She was lost. No one was there for her. Why was it so dark? She began breathing heavily.

"Pow-Pow… where are you?! Answer me!"

She began running, running aimlessly into the darkness. The void was swallowing her whole and there was no way out.

"Powder!"

The silence was driving her crazy. Why was nothing responding? Why were her steps so loud?

"Powder! Where are you!"

A sudden wall of flames surrounded her, engulfing her with nature's fiery. It was hot. Scalding. She could feel the hairs on her skin burning even if the flames were in front of her. The moisture in the atmosphere burned up, leaving an ashy dryness in the air.

"Mylo? Claggor?"

She finally turned around at the sound of a popping and crackling snap. There was a house. The house she grew up in. A house that was burning from the bottom up. Flames were bursting out of every crevice and seam as if it was screaming in pain. So much black smoke covered the skies and she began choking on its cindery taste.

"M-Mom… dad… Mom! Dad!"

She started running toward the house.

"Powder! Where are you!"

She jumped into the flames, through that burning door however, a sudden chill washed over her surroundings. All of the sudden, her surroundings froze up into an icicle prison. There was white in every direction and with every step she took, her feet crunched into the snow.

"Mom? Dad? Powder…?"

A shaky white breath escaped her lips as she took a few cautious steps until a loud branch snapped. She froze in place before slowly turning around. Time seemed to have stopped the moment she laid eyes on a beast. It was a bear that was three times as large as she was. A shaky stutter was all that left her mouth as she fell back a weak step.

"C-Caitlyn…?"

The bear began chasing after her. Its eyes were crazed with hunger as saliva dripped down its razor-sharp teeth. She fell back another step. She had to run. She needed to run. The hairs on her neck shot up and she started running.

Running and running and running.

She couldn't get away. It was right on her tail and a human couldn't possibly run away from a four-legged creature. One thud after another, its humongous paws crashed down onto the snowy terrain. The sound grew closer and closer until silence took over. She tripped. She fell and the moment she turned to face the beast, the bear roared in her face.

"No… no— NO!"

"Vi…? Vi…Vi wake up!...VIOLET!"

Twitching violently, Vi gasped for air. Her heart was pounding like crazy in her chest and she couldn't breathe. Her body was sweating unbelievably and her side was burning.

"Hey, hey look at me…" Caitlyn cupped Vi's face and forced her to look her in the eyes. "I am here for you… it is alright, you are okay. I promise… I am right here."

Vi took some sharp breaths as she grunted in pain. She gritted her teeth, wheezing as she got lost in Caitlyn's eyes, trying to grasp reality.

"Shh shh shh… that is it… just breathe for me…"

Breathing heavily, Vi's eyes fluttered before she leaned into Caitlyn's chest. In return, the doctor hugged her tightly before patting her back soothingly. Vi ended up surrendering to Caitlyn's warmth and she took deep breaths, inhaling her sweet scent. Her eyes grew heavy as fatigue washed over her body again. It wasn't until her breath leveled out that Caitlyn pulled away slightly.

"Are you okay? You were having a bad nightmare." Caitlyn calmly asked as she touched Vi's forehead. "Do you feel hurt anywhere?"

At that question, Vi winced before curling into Caitlyn. "My side… it's on fire."

Caitlyn quickly frowned at that. "Let me see," she then pushed herself up, tearing away from Vi's sweaty body, exposing her to the cold air.

Vi immediately shivered as Caitlyn lifted the covers to see a red-stained shirt.

"Your wound opened…" A worried sigh left her lips as she crawled out of bed to grab the medical kit. "Wait here, I will be back."

Grunting softly, Vi settled on her back. She stared at the ceiling while zoning out. After a second, she brought her hand up to grasp her chest. What was this sudden aching feeling? A horrible feeling sunk through her bones and for some reason, she wanted out. She was lost in her mind until Caitlyn's voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Let me help you take this off…" Caitlyn said in a soft voice before kneeling by her side. She began unbuttoning her shirt and Vi just glanced down at her.

"..."

Caitlyn proceeded to treat her accordingly and it wasn't until she started reapplying gauze that she spoke up. "Did you want to talk about it?"

Vi blinked. She then looked away from Caitlyn's gaze before asking, "About?"

"Your nightmare. You were in deep and well…"

Sighing at the revelation, Vi snapped her head back on the pillow. "Did I… say something?"

Caitlyn stopped what she was doing to look at Vi. After a second, she looked back down before softly speaking up, "You were… calling out a few names. Mylo, Claggor, and Powder… you also called for your parents."

Huffing at that, Vi ran her hand down her face. "I… they were…" sighing in frustration, she wasn't sure where to start. "I dreamt about being lost? Stuck in… a dark void." She confessed as she stared at her hand, clenching and unclenching her fingers.

With her eyes flickering up, Caitlyn gave Vi her full attention.

"And… I started running, trying to find someone. Anyone." She paused at the recollection before shutting her eyes. "Then… the fire came. The fire that took away my family and my friends."

Caitlyn didn't say anything. She simply looked Vi in the eyes, giving her her full attention.

Vi took a deep breath before continuing, "You know, there are nights when I dream about them. They keep calling my name, calling for help. I… I actually left the house that night when I wasn't supposed to. I was doing something stupid and when I got back, everything was burning."

At that comment, Caitlyn grabbed a hold of Vi's hand, holding her tightly.

"When I think back to that time, I keep asking myself: why didn't I come home faster? Why couldn't I save them? Why did I leave that night? If I had stayed, maybe I could have helped them escape. I saved Powder… but I couldn't find the others. They were buried in that sea of flames and I couldn't make it to them because the pillars collapsed."

"You were just a child Vi, you could not have known." Caitlyn started before gently adding, "Besides, even if you were there, there was no guarantee you would have been able to help them. I was a teen at that time, much more physically capable than you were, but I am not sure I could have helped them."

Caitlyn finally stood up and crawled onto the bed to lean down, hugging Vi intimately. "You were so brave. I am proud of you for saving your sister… for surviving and for being here to meet me. You did so well Violet."

Vi found herself clinging to Caitlyn's shoulder. Her face wrinkled in pain before she found herself cracking under the pressure. Choked sobs left her lips as she cried as silently as she could in her arms. The entire time, Caitlyn comforted her with soft pats and warm cooes.

"You did your best… and that is good enough."

A good amount of time passed before Vi finally spoke up. "I… think I'm good now…" Pulling back from her embrace, Vi sniffled. Her tears may have stopped spilling but her eyes were puffy from all the crying she had done.

Caitlyn had such a warm and compassionate look in her eyes. Without hesitation, she reached up to wipe away the last bit of tear stains from her cheeks. She engraved Vi's features in memory and after a second of watching Vi's eyes, she chuckled. "This makes us one for one."

Vi only shot her a confused look.

"You know…" she cleared her throat before flatly commenting. "Crying like a mess in front of each other."

"Ahh…" Huffing at that, Vi pulled Caitlyn back into a hug. It was admittedly embarrassing and at that moment, she thought Caitlyn must have felt the same as her but even so, it wasn't that bad. She closed her eyes before squeezing her tightly. "When were hugs so nice?"

"When you have someone incredibly attractive in your arms."

Opening her eyes at that comment, Vi pulled back to look her in the eyes. "You're right but still…"

Smiling at that, Caitlyn leaned down to kiss her lips. It was a moist kiss and after they parted, she hovered in front of her lips to whisper. "It is even better when you can kiss them silly."

Groaning at that, Caitlyn's whispers were seriously doing a number on her. "You're right again…" Vi kissed her back with a long and lingering kiss before she mumbled back, "Why are you such a good kisser?"

Caitlyn silenced her with an open-mouthed kiss as she pressed Vi into the mattress, climbing on top of her carefully. They both sighed in contentment before Caitlyn released Vi's tongue with a soft pop. "I am an excellent kisser."

Vi let out a strained moan before laughing lightly. "That…" She pecked her lips, "You are."

"Sorry…" Caitlyn breathed out on Vi's lips. "I do not want you to misunderstand that I am kissing you just to shut you up or comfort you or whatever… it is just because you looked so damned kissable."

Moaning along into a long and wet kiss, Vi slowly trailed her hands up and down Caitlyn's back. One of her hands ended up finding her ass and she gave Caitlyn's round cheek a firm squeeze. She groaned before whispering back. "None taken…"

After kissing each other for quite some time, Vi moaned again as she jerked Caitlyn's body into her own. Her hands had yet to leave her ass and if anything, she was erotically groping her, relishing the opportunity.

"Fuck… you have such a nice ass."

Caitlyn smiled into their kiss. "Thank you."

"Mmh… more like, you have such a nice fucking body for being your age."

Pulling away from Vi's lips, Caitlyn cocked an eyebrow before licking her jaw. "And what is that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing… it just adds to your sexiness, it shows you take care of yourself."

Caitlyn slowly kissed her way down Vi's neck. "I suppose… I usually run four kilometers every day amongst other exercises."

Vi sighed heavily as she ran her fingers through Caitlyn's hair. "What the fuck is four kilometers?"

Immediately giggling at that, Caitlyn softly nibbled at Vi's collarbone. "About two point five miles."

"Every day?!" She exclaimed in shock, "Fuck…"

Humming onto her skin, Caitlyn dragged her teeth down Vi's chest. "What about you?" She kissed her chest, right at the start of her breast. "You are more… physically fit. As a doctor, I am very impressed Violet, it is hard to obtain abs in general let alone as a woman."

"Oh fuck… I shouldn't have told you my name."

Giggling at her comment, Caitlyn glanced up while keeping her lips pressed against her skin. "Why?"

"Cause I've never liked my name more than now… fuck Caitlyn, it sounds ridiculously sexy with your stupid posh accent."

Caitlyn couldn't help but snort lightly. "My 'stupid' posh accent?" She then leaned up to whisper into her ear, "But I have been told it is sexy…"

An aroused groan escaped Vi's mouth. She whimpered slightly before leaning into Caitlyn's ear and speaking in a soft voice as well. "Who told you that?"

Humming in a teasing manner, Caitlyn gently nibbled Vi's ear. "Someone I met."

A wide grin immediately formed on Vi's face before she gently poked back. "Someone, you are interested in…?"

"Hmm…" Caitlyn pretended to think deeply as if she was debating something before shamelessly admitting, "I would not deny it."

"Oh?" Vi mused before playfully nudging back with an eyebrow wiggle. "They must be lucky."

Caitlyn chuckled in a deep voice before brushing the back of her hand along Vi's cheek. She held eye contact before tucking away a strand of hair from her face. "She is…"

"Damn…" Vi's eyes flickered down at Caitlyn's lips. "I bet she is… I'm jealous."

"Mmhmm…" Pecking her lips once, Caitlyn settled more of her weight on Vi but avoided her side. "You should be, I choose her quite well… you should see her. She is extremely attractive."

"That so…?"

"Yes indeed, you just need a mirror to see who I choose. One look and you will wonder if she was made by the gods."

"Oh yeah? Is that what you think when you look in the mirror?" Vi flirted back as she ran her hands up Caitlyn's waist. "Fuck… we seriously need to stop this…"

Caitlyn pressed her lips against Vi's, slipping her tongue into her mouth. They ended up sloppily kissing each other before Caitlyn released her tongue with a soft pop. "Stop what?"

Vi hummed in arousal. "This. Kissing. You're turning me on so bad I don't think I can stop here anymore…" she then tugged at Caitlyn's shirt.

"Well…" she kissed her lips. "I am fine with that…" She licked and nipped her upper lip. "Just say the word." She claimed her lips again.

"Fuck…" she kissed her back, "You know I can't say no to you Cupcake."

Chuckling at that, Caitlyn smiled as she pecked her lips. "Is that so?"

"Yeah…"

They made out with each other at a slow and enjoyable pace. After a blissful moment, Caitlyn whispered into her lips.

"Good to know…"

They made out for a while until Vi's stomach was the first to throw in a sign of protest. At the sound of her hungry grumble, Caitlyn pulled back before facing Vi. She then giggled before asking, "Shall we have breakfast now?"

Vi pulled Caitlyn in by her neck to kiss the nook of her jaw. "Sure, sounds great."

"Mmh…" she shifted slightly before smiling at her playfully. "You are gonna have to let me go first, Vi."

She immediately whined at that. "But you're so warm… and you smell good too."

Caitlyn sighed before more proactively pulling away from Vi. "You need to eat though, you need strength for recovery."

Accepting defeat, Vi frowned at the cold air slipping in between their bodies. "Alright, doc whatever you say."

"Come on," she gave Vi a helping hand. "We can make crepes."

Vi grunted as she stood up before raising an eyebrow at her posh annunciation. "Crepes?" She repeated with her best attempt. "What the heck is that?"

"You know crepes, everyone loves them do not they?"

"Uh… sure."

Shaking her head, Caitlyn pulled Vi to the kitchen. "Come on, I'll make you some."

Some prepping and cooking later, it finally clicked for Vi when there was a plate with a stack of some thinly cooked batter on it. "Ohhhhh, you mean pancakes."

"That is what I said."

Vi shot her a look. "Cupcake, you said crepes, that's something entirely different."

"They are all the same though."

Grabbing one layer off the stack, Vi raised it to eye level before shooting it a look. "Awfully thin though, wouldn't you say?"

"That is how all British people eat your so-called 'pancakes' Vi, otherwise we eat flapjacks but unfortunately, we do not have any oats lying around."

"Flapjacks?" Vi repeated with much curiosity and skepticism. "What in the world do you people eat?"

Rolling her eyes, Caitlyn placed one last crepe onto Vi's plate before sliding it forward. "Food darling."

Vi pursed her lips at that. "Darling?"

Caitlyn blinked before making eye contact with her. "Is there… something wrong with that?"

"What? Oh— no no no! I just, I'm not sure what we are, that's all. I know we're into each other and stuff but I still…"

"Well…" Caitlyn continued to cook herself some crepes. "I do realize we are moving pretty quickly…" She flipped the crepe over. "I am not sure how to put it but if I am being honest, it feels as if we have known each other for quite some time."

Vi smiled at that comment. "I know what you mean… it feels like we're living some dream or something. Everything between us feels so surreal and…and amazing. If I'm being honest, I don't want it to end…"

Caitlyn plated the crepe before it could burn. She then turned to face Vi before softly replying, "I feel the same way…"

They gave each other this look as if they wanted to pounce at each other before Caitlyn tore away. She quickly turned off the gas burner before rummaging through the cabinets for syrup. "Would you prefer honey or maple syrup?"

Taking a seat at the kitchen island, Vi pulled her plate closer. "Maple syrup please."

Nodding slightly, Caitlyn pulled out both condiments from a cabinet before setting them on the table. She handed Vi the maple syrup before opening the honey for herself. They proceeded to eat in comfortable silence and it wasn't until they were doing the dishes that Vi spoke up.

"Say, Caitlyn…?"

Having been called by her name, Caitlyn raised an eyebrow. "Yes, Vi?" She turned to hand her a freshly rinsed dish before staring at her intently.

"As much as I'd love to, we probably shouldn't um…" Vi rubbed her cheek before shyly saying, "Kiss anymore, I'm having a hard time not ripping off your clothes."

Caitlyn couldn't help but sound deflated. "Oh…" she rinsed off another plate before starting, "You… do hold a point. We should refrain from any more intimacy when possible."

"Yeah… at least until we're out."

"Till we are out."

"..."

"..."

The rest of the day had been somewhat awkward. They didn't sit next to each other or talk much frankly. The next day was even more horrendous somehow. They had glanced at each other several times throughout the day and occasionally would catch each other in the act which led to more embarrassment.

This leads them to their fifth day together.

Rather than spending time and reading a book like Caitlyn was, Vi had grown restless and opted to snoop around. And, since she was feeling better, she managed to make it up the stairs without too much fuss. So, as Vi walked around on the second floor at a relaxing pace, she took in newfound details she hadn't seen before. She disregarded the number of doors though of course.

Her eyes had wandered off, namely at the family portraits which she had vaguely seen around the first floor but not as grand scale compared to the ones here. There were a couple of paintings on each side of the wall. The first one she walked past was the Kirammans in their youth. Caitlyn probably had to be about five years old. The next one she passed, Caitlyn was probably around ten. That similar fashion repeated for the next few paintings.

They probably had one done every five or so years.

It amazed Vi on several fronts. The wonderful contrast and shading between the colors and background. The detail on their skin with the few adoring blemishes here and there. Whoever they commissioned to paint these had amazing skill. That and the joy of watching Caitlyn grow up into the beauty she was now.

Having finished observing them all, Vi walked back to her favorite portrait. The one where Caitlyn was probably around ten years old. She had bright eyes and a dorky smile. Her tooth gap was proudly shining and honestly, it was the best part of this portrait. Her smile brought a smile to Vi's face and she couldn't help but chuckle in amusement.

"Heh, how cute…"

Vi ended up enjoying the happiness of the painting for a little longer before exploring the rest of the floor. Of course, out of respect, she didn't open any doors that were closed and only peeped into the open ones. Most of the doors were similar to the ones on the first floor. Mostly guest rooms and a few more entertainment rooms, however, as she went deeper into the hallway, one particular room caught her attention.

The door was half open, practically beckoning Vi's name.

Caving into her curiosity, Vi went over to take a peek. The first thought she had was that this room felt different from the others. More… broken into. There were more personal touches made to the decorations and furniture. Despite this being the first time Vi had ever seen this room, she felt this sense of familiarity and that's when the realization hit.

This was Caitlyn's room.

Pondering her options, Vi ended up shrugging and gently letting herself in. She took a careful step inside as if she was walking on eggshells. Something felt wrong about invading Caitlyn's personal space but at the same time, she was too curious about the attractive doctor to not try and learn more about her. The more she looked around her room, the more Vi's heart filled with joy. Even if she didn't know Caitlyn all that well, something about this room just screamed her name.

The simple yet elegant furniture and decorations were the obvious red herring if that humungous bean bag on the floor wasn't it. Meaning… the real hidden treat had to be the books on her shelf. She confirmed that to be true based on how worn down they were. Vi recognized a couple of the books, some of which she had read despite not being a reader herself. Particularly the few books about someone's LGBTQ+ story and the few about self-care. Of course, there was also a whole shelf dedicated to medical research amongst other 'big-brained' topics.

Sexy.

Intelligent.

Compassionate.

Was this woman lacking anything?

A familiar voice finally pulled Vi out of her thoughts. "Having fun there?"

Vi turned just in time to watch Caitlynlean against the frame of the door. She had this amused smile on her face as she crossed her arm and Vi knew for a fact that Caitlyn knew that Vi knew this was her room. The sunlight shined through the window and it was then Vi finally noticed an undeniable detail on her beautiful face for the nth time.

Walking over to her side, Vi remained silent before pausing in front of Caitlyn. They still hadn't said a single word as they looked each other in the eyes. After a second, Vi finally reached up to brush away some hair from Caitlyn's face before her fingers lingered above her right eyebrow.

"How did I never notice your scar?"

Caitlyn's face melted even further into a warm smile. "It is probably faint now…" It wasn't. "It happened about twenty years ago?"

She did some quick mental math before asking, "When you were seventeen?"

Caitlyn nuzzled into Vi's hand. "That sounds about right. Long story short, something blew up and nicked me."

Vi's eyes popped out and she immediately made a shocked yet mostly confused face. "Wait— what?"

The doctor just shrugged before standing up tall, getting Vi to take a step back. "Viktor." Caitlyn further expanded as she slowly shuffled Vi back to her bed. "A family friend of ours is a medical researcher and inventor. He was researching something to help him with his autoimmune system disease… and well… something may or may not have exploded."

The moment the back of Vi's legs hit the bed, she snorted. "Something just 'exploded' are you kidding me? I don't know what's scarier, almost getting blown up, or how calm you are explaining that in a single sentence!"

This time, Caitlyn hummed thoughtfully before brushing her thumb along Vi's cheek. "You never answered my question."

Vi just sucked in a breath while jutting her lips. "Am I having fun? Yes, of course. I'm learning more about you every day."

Caitlyn smiled at her. "I am glad you are having a blast." She then ran the tip of her fingers down Vi's chest. Her eyes flickered down at Vi's lips before she finally asked, "What are you doing in my room?"

"Besides trying to find your secret sex chest?" She joked with a teasing grin. "Not much. Just enjoying your… personal space. It's cozy, I like it. It's nice and relaxing."

Humming softly, Caitlyn ended up running her hands down to Vi's waist before pulling her in for a loose hug. "If you wanted to follow me to my bed, you could have just asked."

Vi just sucked in a shaky breath. "I thought we agreed not to… be intimate."

Caitlyn brushed her lips across Vi's cheek before pausing next to her ear. "Do not blame me, Violet. You are the one who is making this extremely difficult."

"Oh fucking hell…" Vi groaned before turning her face and claiming Caitlyn's lips.

They were both quick to moan as Vi quickly held Caitlyn in closer by her neck. Their kisses were quick to become intense and in no time, Vi pulled Caitlyn down toward the bed. Releasing her lips with a wet pop, Caitlyn supported Vi down onto her mattress. Once they were settled, Caitlyn climbed on top of her before kissing her way to her ear. She licked and nibbled her earlobe before panting into her ear.

"Spend the night with me."

"In your bed…? But no sex?"

"Unfortunately not," Caitlyn confirmed as she feverishly kissed Vi's neck. "Mmh…" she moaned as gently bit her skin, "But I guarantee you my bed is more comfortable than the guest room."

Vi only groaned as she impatiently caressed Caitlyn's body. "Just shut up and kiss me."

"Mmh… with pleasure."

Miraculously failing at their mutual decree, they ended up kissing each other until they fell asleep in each other's arms, cuddling each other tightly. The next day, the sixth day in this villa, was spent familiarly: quality time together, learning about each other's quirks, and more, and last, but not least, lots of kissing. This eventually brought them to the one-week mark, the seventh day when their lives would be permanently changed again.

They were sitting in the living room, passionately making out for what had felt like the entire day. Vi was comfortably straddling Caitlyn's lap as she tangled her fingers into her dark navy hair, forcing her to keep close. Caitlyn on the other hand, was caressing Vi's body and subtly rocking Vi's core into her own body. All that could be heard between them were aroused moans and wet kissing noises.

"Mmh… fuck…" Vi sighed before rocking her body more aggressively into Caitlyn's. "I think I'm seriously gonna cum."

Caitlyn hardly budged a muscle as she latched onto Vi's tongue, sucking it like a lollipop. If anything, she began jerking Vi's body even rougher, making her breath hitch. Releasing her tongue with a soft yet wet pop, Caitlyn bit her lower lip before sucking it caringly. Her hands explored Vi's back before falling south and groping her ass.

"Oh fuck…" Vi gasped as she whimpered before tightly holding onto Caitlyn. "Cupcake stop… oh…" panting for her breath, she buried her face into Caitlyn's neck. "Hah… oh Cait…"

Suddenly overcome with a strong desire to make Vi reach her peak, Caitlyn found herself purposely rocking her body into Vi's in a sexual way. She may have been the one adamant about not having sex but with her current view and audio cues, there was no way she could contain herself. As she jerked Vi off, she leaned into her ear and sucked it before whispering.

"Oh… Violet, you sound incredible. That is it baby girl… cum for me."

"Oh fucking hell…" Vi's breath hitched.

Her body was aching with excitement from being teased for so long. Caitlyn's sexy posh accent didn't help either. Not to mention the fact that she was purposely jerking her body up and down. Any more stimulation than this was going to cause a riot.

Latching onto Caitlyn's shoulders, Vi began riding Caitlyn's body. She cursed that they were fully clothed but with all the sexual tension between them, she would take it. As she grew closer to her sweet release, the louder she became until finally, her body bucked. An unsatisfying yet electrifying orgasm swept over her body and she shouted Caitlyn's name. She ended up collapsing on Caitlyn's body, completely limp and pleased by this turn in events. When Vi turned to face Caitlyn, she was rewarded with the most arousing and sexiest person alive.

Caitlyn's pupils were extremely dilated, hungry with desire. Her eyes were fixated on Vi's and her mouth was parted as she took some heavy breaths. In that instinct, Vi knew she had broken Caitlyn. The next thing that happened was Caitlyn pulling her into a searing kiss before slamming her down onto the couch.

Vi knew she was already wet from cumming two seconds ago but Caitlyn's sudden aggression made her even wetter. This was the most carnal kiss they shared within the last few days. It was sloppy, wet, rough, and impatient. Their teeth clacked multiple times and Vi could have sworn her lip was cut but, no matter, she was far too turned on to care let alone stop. If this was what an unhinged and aroused Caitlyn was like, she was dying to find out the outcome.

"Mmh…" moaning in between their kisses, Caitlyn began kissing her way down her jaw. "Bloody hell Violet…" she bit down hard, leaving a fresh and deep bite mark on her pulse. "You are driving me crazy."

A shaky groan was all Vi could manage as her body twitched in anticipation.

Caitlyn moaned as she pressed kisses onto her fair skin while speaking in between. "I think… you have… broken me."

A devilish chuckle was all that left Vi's lips before she breathlessly stated a teasing comment. "Welcome to the underside Cupcake."

Biting her lip, Caitlyn shut her up. In a matter of seconds, Vi was tearing apart Caitlyn's blouse. At least she was trying to but thanks to how close they were stuck to each other, it was more of a difficult task than it should have been. While one was obsessed with kissing the life out of her, the other was adamant about stripping her bare. They weren't exactly helping each other out but Vi somehow managed to unbutton the top half of Caitlyn's shirt.

What made the whole situation ignite even further was the fact that Caitlyn wasn't wearing a bra. Rightfully so though of course, they were trapped, alone, and relaxing so why bother with social and public norms?

Vi let out a deep groan as she stuck her hand inside Caitlyn's blouse, feeling up her perfect bosom and perky nipple. She sighed again when Caitlyn nibbled her collarbone.

"Fucking hell Cait… your tits are so fucking perky. How are they so fucking nice at your age?"

Cocking an eyebrow at that, Caitlyn mused, "I thought you said our age gap was sexy?"

"It is…" she quickly confirmed, "I just didn't think that you'd have such a nice bod…" her eyes narrowed in between the gap of her shirt and skin. She could vaguely see Caitlyn's erect nipple poking through.

"Mmh…" Caitlyn looked up and made eye contact as she started kissing her way lower. "Trust me… I take care of myself."

"Oh…" Biting her lip, Vi clawed her scalp before huffing, "I don't know if I can take your word for it."

Caitlyn scoffed playfully before grabbing one of Vi's hands and bringing it to her shirt. She pressed her hand firmly against her breast before seductively saying, "Then come and find out for yourself."

Never has Vi been so aroused in her life before.

"Don't mind if I do."

Vi grunted through her abdomen pain and pushed Caitlyn into the couch. She quickly climbed on top of her and began marking her territory but just as she was so close to her objective, a sudden bang gets them to twitch. They froze and waited an eerie second before their imagination was confirmed and the banging noise happened again. Only this time, Vi turned to face the door with a shocked face.

"Uhh… Cupcake, I think someone is banging on the door."

Caitlyn was just as equally shocked as Vi, "What?"

The door banged again but this time it budged open. "Caitlyn?! Are you in here? Is everything okay?" A familiar masculine voice to Caitlyn and a foreign voice to Vi called out.

"Oh fuck." Caitlyn was mortified as she quickly jerked upright by reflex and mistakenly head-budded Vi in the process. "Ow—"

"Caitlyn?!" The owner of the voice stepped inside before making eye contact with Vi who froze up not knowing what to do. He immediately made a face that matched Vi's before he carefully asked, "Who are you…?" He finally caught sight of Caitlyn. "Cait, what is going on?"

Never had Caitlyn been so embarrassed and mortified in her life. "Nothing!" She quickly pushed Vi off her body, getting a pained 'ow' from the woman before she urgently stood up. "And this is Vi." She practically inhaled sharply before shooting back, "And what are you doing here Jayce?"

He scrunched his face, "Well I came to help you from the blizzard but uh…" his eyes flickered down and he blushed before immediately jerking his face in another direction. "Looks like you did not need it."

Caitlyn's face scrunched as well before she looked down and her face practically exploded. Her entire chest was exposed, her nipples barely covered, and her skin was littered with hickeys. She yelped while flinching before quickly pulling her shirt together. She then snapped at Vi and mouthed something.

Vi didn't exactly understand her thanks to how baffled she felt but she understood her actions nonetheless. She looked down and it was obvious she wasn't exactly in a better state than Caitlyn. If anything, she was worse because her shirt was a little red, probably thanks to the jerking her body endured from being edged along and tossed around.

Jayce cleared his throat awkwardly before offering, "I can uh… come back in a few minutes if you would like."

"No!" Caitlyn exclaimed back a little too quickly. "I— we—" she groaned in annoyance before taking a deep breath to calm herself. "We are fine Jayce, thank you for your help. I suppose it is better you than my parents…" Her eyes then trailed off to Vi before immediately widening. "You are bleeding."

Groaning to herself as Vi slammed her head into the couch's cushions, she held onto her side. "I've been through worse."

Caitlyn was quick to run across the villa in search of the med kit. "Jayce, can you call an ambulance?"

"I'm fine Cupcake, I don't need an ambulance. I've been fine without one for a week now haven't I?" Vi huffed again before sitting up. She then lifted her shirt, exposing bloody bandages.

"Cupcake?" Jayce repeated in an intrigued voice before his eyebrows shot up at the realization. "Wait, are you okay?" He then walked over to look at her wound and he ended up reaching out by default.

By reflex, Vi slapped his hand away. "I'm fine pretty boy, just a scratch."

Caitlyn was back with the med kit in hand. "A scratch you got from a bear attack." She disapprovingly added, "I may have given you first aid but you still have to get it checked out with proper equipment. It could be infected or even worse, you can contract some disease."

"A bear?!" Jayce repeated with an even more confused face. "You got attacked by a bear? How are you even alive?"

Vi shot him a sleazy grin, "Your hot girlfriend saved me with a rifle."

Both Caitlyn and Jayce let out a disgusted scoffing noise before exclaiming at the same time.

"Caitlyn is not my girlfriend!"

"Jayce is not my boyfriend!"

Breaking out into a laughing fit, Vi winced again as Caitlyn began treating her wound. "Aww, you two make a great pair."

Jayce grumbled in disbelief as he turned around and pulled out his phone to make a call.

Caitlyn, on the other hand, shot her an annoyed glare as she dabbed Vi's wound a little more aggressively than usual. "I will have you know Violet, we grew up together so Jayce is like a brother to me."

"Oh, is he now?" Vi playfully challenged before hissing at Caitlyn's tough love treatment.

"Yes. Nothing more. Nothing less." She swapped out the bandages before adding, "Besides, even if I was into men, he would not be my type."

Humming in amusement, Vi mused, "And what would your type be?"

Halting her movement, Caitlyn looked Vi in the eyes before leaning in to whisper into her ear. "The type to have some scars and tattoos."

Vi groaned as her eyes flicked down at Caitlyn's swollen lips. Oh how much she wanted to kiss that stupid smirk off her face.

"Alright alright, stop trifling around you two, the ambulance will be here shortly so I recommend dressing up." Jayce finally interrupted as he put his phone away into his pocket. "And please, do not fuck each other while I am around. You almost traumatized me a second ago."

Caitlyn shot him a glare as she finished up the bandaid. "Oh shut it Jayce!"

He chuckled before adding. "You also might wanna put some makeup on," he then pointed at his neck, "If you did not work at a hospital, you would fool people into thinking you have been abused."

Her face grew redder than it had ever been throughout the week they'd spent together.

Vi ended up snorting from below. "I like him."

Caitlyn turned to slap her arm. "I hate you."

"Mmh, yeah, love you too."

"Whatever," Caitlyn scoffed back with a roll of her eyes. She then got off the couch to help Vi onto her feet.

They then made their way to change their clothes and freshen up however, what startled Vi the most in this situation were her own words. She was scared of how serious and sincere she meant the words she had said to Caitlyn despite only meeting her for the first time a week ago.

Love huh?

How whimsical and unpredictable it can be.
