Misty hadn't been back home since the hand incident. She'd stayed with Cordelia for a week now and her parents hadn't even called or tried to contact her. So far, everything had been great and her hand was healing nicely.
Misty looked up when someone sat down next to her in her math class, "Ya haven't been here in a week," The girl looked up from her phone screen.
"Damn. I don't come around for a week and you end up broken," She gestured towards Misty's hand and the wild blonde rolled her eyes as she pulled out her math note book.
"I fell going up the stairs and broke my wrist. It's fine," Madison laughed.
"You're such a klutz," Misty nodded without making eye contact. It was only a matter of time before her best friend figured out that all of her accidents over the years weren't accidents, "What are you doing for Christmas break?" Misty bit her lip. She hadn't really thought about it until right now.
"Umm. I dunno," Madison looked over to her curiously but just nodded.
"Well, you can come with me on my beach trip," Misty grinned over at her.
"Thanks, Mads. But I'll probably have a ta work for the few weeks we get out," Madison nodded in acceptance and they looked up when the bell finally rang and the teacher came in to start class.
oooOOooOOooo
"Umm," Cordelia looked up when Misty broke the silence that afternoon while she was sitting in the greenhouse.
"Yeah, sweetheart?" Misty bit her lip and Cordelia got up and rounded the work table to stand in front of her. She spun her gently on her stool to face her and looked down at the wild blonde, "What is it?"
"Umm," Misty looked down and took a breath, "Should I.. Go home.. For next week?" Cordelia furrowed her eyebrows, "During Christmas break?"
"Oh!" Cordelia shook her head, "No, darling. I want to spend Christmas with you," Misty looked up at her, "As long as you're not sick of me yet that is?"
"I could never be sick of ya," Cordelia grinned down at her and kissed her gently, "I love ya," Cordelia nodded and nuzzled her nose against Misty's.
"I love you, Misty mouse."
oooOOooOOooo
Cordelia laughed as she found another text book, this one was in the floor next to the bathtub. She'd found numerous other textbooks and note sheets around the house since it was finals week and Misty was taking hers seriously. Cordelia just grinned as she picked the book up and sat it in the bedroom.
She made her way back downstairs and entered the living room to see Misty sat in the floor with a text book and four note books open around her. She was reading and flipping through things as she read and the end of her pen was being chewed up in her mouth.
"Mouse?" The wild blonde looked up briefly.
"Am I in your way, darlin'? I can move?" Misty had started picking her things up without stopping her reading.
"Mist, you're fine. Stay where you are, baby girl," The blonde just nodded and dropped her things back into place. Cordelia laughed and dropped a kiss to her hair as she passed her and walked into the kitchen. She made dinner before walking back into the living room and standing in the doorway, "Baby?"
"Umm. One minute," Cordelia bit her lip as she grinned. This had been going on all week and tomorrow was Misty's last final. Cordelia stood there for a few moments before walking over and standing behind Misty.
"Misty?" The wild blonde nodded and made another note. Cordelia laughed and sat down beside her before pulling her girlfriend into her arms to sit between her legs. The wild blonde just grabbed the book to bring it with her as she was dragged, "Misty, you're going to do fine tomorrow, sweetheart," She pressed a kiss to the wild blonde's cheek, "You need to eat."
"One minute," She didn't even look up as she answered and Cordelia bit her lip and resorted to her final plan. She gently ran her hands around to Misty's stomach and splayed her fingers out over her stomach. Misty didn't seem to notice and Cordelia gently trailed her fingers under the hem of the girl's shirt to trace the warm skin of her belly, "Dee."
"Get up, Misty mouse," The wild blonde bit her lip and flipped the page and Cordelia trailed her fingers up higher and ran her finger tips along the bottom edge of Misty's bra.
"Cordeliaaaa," Was whined out and the older woman connected her lips with Misty's neck as she cupped her breasts through her bra, "I need ta study."
"No you don't. You know all of this and you're going to pass with flying colors tomorrow just like you have all week," The wild blonde let out a moan as Cordelia pinched her nipples and put her book down before turning to face her and kissing her passionately.
"If I fail, it's on ya."
oooOOooOOooo
"How was the test?" Misty looked up at Cordelia.
"It was fine," Cordelia looked at her and Misty let out a giggle, "I knew it all. Ya were right, okay?" Cordelia nodded and kissed her gently. She groaned when the intercom beeped.
"Miss. Goode, could you send Misty Day to my office please?" Cordelia responded that she would and looked back down at her girlfriend.
"What did you do?"
"Uh! Like it was me!" She stuck her tongue out playfully before making her way to the front office.
Misty made her way to the office and knocked lightly before entering the principal's office. The woman looked up and gestured at the chair across from her. Misty took a seat and looked at her expectantly.
oooOOooOOooo
Cordelia looked up when the door to the greenhouse opened again later and her girlfriend walked in with a big grin on her face, "Why do you look so happy?" Misty giggled and walked over to her before kissing her soundly, "Not that I'm complaining or anything of course."
"I sort of graduated," Cordelia looked at her curiously, "I have more than enough credits ta go ahead and graduate without havin' ta go ta high school next semester. So I'm finished. I'm not a student here anymore," Misty watched brown eyes sadden before she leaned forward and kissed her, "Did ya hear me? I'm not your student anymore," Cordelia finally caught on and cupped her cheeks gently.
"I love you, Misty Day."
"I love ya, Cordelia Goode."
