-No One's POV-
"What the hell are you still doing here?" Kitty asks him, leaning back against the counter and glaring at the man who had hurt the person she cared most about.
"Don't go all crazy on me again; I just came here to tell you something…important" John told her, Kitty scoffed and began to walk away, her drink forgotten. She didn't want to talk to this guy for another second but John called out to her desperately.
"No, Kitty wait…It's about the accident!" John yelled a little, making Kitty stop in her tracks and slowly turn around in confusion.
"How do you know about that?" Kitty asked, knowing exactly what accident he was talking about. John looked at her nervously as he replied.
"You're going to want to sit down for this" he tells her hesitantly, she looks at him questioningly but complies and sits down on the bar stool, curiosity and fear running through her as she wonders what exactly he needs to tell her.
John moves over to sit next to her and looks really nervous as he begins to fidget around in his seat. Kitty starts to get annoyed as twenty seconds have gone by and he has been yet to say anything.
"Look if you don't say anything in the next five seconds I swear to God I'm gonna-"
"Alright, alright I'll talk…there's really no easy way to explain this to you so…" he states, his gaze flicking over to the expectant blonde before moving back down to look at the wooden counter.
"I'm the reason that you're alive…but I'm also the reason your fathers dead" he reveals to the blonde girl and Kitty doesn't know quite how to react, so she just freezes in her seat, her mouth gaping slightly and her eyes wide.
"W-what do y-you mean?" she stutters out, fear and confusion rushing through her veins. John sighs heavily and looks up at the blonde, preparing to tell the unheard story of what happened on that horrible and unfortunate night.
"The night of your…crash, was also the night that I…left Marley and her mother, it was late and I was driving through the rain but I was tired, upset, confused and even angry at myself for what I was doing so when I was going over the bridge I didn't…I didn't see the car coming…I didn't see your car coming…" he tells her, regret and sympathy showing deep in the pools of his blue eyes. Kitty furrows her eyebrows as her eyes start to glisten, because now she has the slightest of ideas as to where this story was going…and she didn't like it.
"It all happened so fast and before I knew it your car had…your car was in the water and sinking fast. I-I didn't know what to do, I was scared…but then I heard your dad screaming for help so I jumped into the water, going to save him but he…he told me to save the girl in the backseat…you Kitty…which meant that I had to leave your dad-"
"Stop…just stop talking" Kitty breathes out shakily and abruptly gets up from her stool, storming out of breadstix and into the cold night air, breathing in as much oxygen as she could since for a moment in there she felt like she couldn't breathe. Taking deep and heavy breaths, she runs her hands over her face, trying her hardest to force back the tears coming on from the memories of the worst night of her life.
"Kitty just let me explain" Kitty hears a voice speak up from behind her and anger starts to take over her.
"Explain what? Huh? Explain how you're the reason my father's dead?!" she raised her voice at the man, who flinched in response.
"Look I'm sorry-"
"Sorry?! You're sorry?! Sorry's not gonna bring back my dad you bastard!" she practically screamed at him, surging forward and before she could register anything, her fist that wasn't bandaged had connected with the tall man's jaw, sending him sprawling to the ground.
Breathing heavily over John, Kitty realises what she just did and falls to her knees, tears streaming down her face as she buries her head in her hands, letting a choked sob break the surprised silence of the two.
Groaning, John slowly sat up, holding a hand to his very painful jaw.
"Okay, I guess I deserved that" he said, wincing from the pain of moving his bruised jaw. He was pretty sure if Kitty hit him just the slightest bit harder she would have broken it.
The only reply he gets from Kitty is the death glare she sends him through her tears, but it's still scary enough to make him freeze for a few seconds before sighing and speaking up again.
"Look Kitty I just…I just want you to know, that what I did that night has haunted me ever since and I'm certain that it will continue to do so for the rest of my life. I can't tell you how sorry I am and I swear to God if I could take back every stupid thing I did that night I would" he tells her with a shaky voice, thinking also about how he had left Marley and Millie when he said the last part. He wished he could take that back too.
Kitty looks at him for a few seconds before sighing and looking down.
"I guess that…you kinda saved my life, I mean you wouldn't have had to if you didn't ditch Marley and Mrs Rose but…you still basically saved my life, I mean you could have just done a hit and run but you didn't so…thanks? I guess" she mumbles, making John smile a little at the fact that the blonde girl had been rid of her rage and now looked just plain tired.
"There's no thanks needed Kitty…there's one more thing that I want to say though" he exclaims making Kitty's head snap up in bewilderment. What else could he have to say? She wondered.
"I understand that you and my daugh-…that you and Marley have broken up and before you say anything of course I knew about you two, it was pretty obvious how you two were in love and no friend is that protective Kitty" he tells her, remembering the day when Kitty had threatened him about leaving town.
"So what I'm trying to say is…go get her back" he tells her, Kitty's eyebrows shooting up in surprise.
"Um, w-what?" she asks him in shock, as he smiles a little at her.
"Go to Marley's house and get her back. I don't like that Jake kid and to be honest, I think you're perfect for her" he tells her honestly, Kitty looks at him still a little surprised that he was saying this. She missed Marley more than ever and she had already been contemplating about attempting to win the blue eyed brunette back.
"I see how you look at each other Kitty and I know that you deeply love her, and I also know that she feel the exact same way. Now usually, I would tell you not to hurt her but I already know that you would never, you protect her and love her and really that's all I ask. But promise me something Kitty, when you do go and get her back. Give her this for me would you?" he asks, handing the still surprised blonde a sealed letter. She hesitantly took it from him, looking at the man questioningly.
"It's a letter for Marley, explaining and telling her everything I wish I could in person…please Kitty, promise me that you'll give this to her?" he asks her, his eyes pleading with her to say yes. She looks at him, uncertain for a few seconds before sighing and nodding her head slightly.
"Okay, alright, I promise" she gives in and stuffs the letter into the back pocket of her jeans. John smiles widely but then winces again as pain shoots through his jaw making Kitty grinned a little bit. What? I still don't like the guy, seeing him in pain isn't terrible, plus knowing that I caused it makes it even better she thinks to herself with a small smile still on her face.
"Uh, you might wanna put some ice on that" she tells him, still grinning a little.
"Yeah I'll get right on that, so um I guess this is goodbye Kitty…now, go get your girl" he smiles at her before getting up and walking back into breadstix, no doubt about to ask where they keep the ice.
Kitty sat there a few moments more, before abruptly standing up and confidently began walking down the dark street, only one destination in mind.
…
"Mom, seriously I'm okay!" Marley tells her worried mom, sighing tiredly. As soon as the pair had got home, Mrs Rose had bombarded her daughter with questions about exactly what happened at the wedding and if she was alright after what the younger Puckerman brother had attempted to do.
"Are you sure dear? Because I would completely understand if you're not, y'know it's been an…interesting night and all and-"
"Mom! Really, I promise I'm okay" Marley insisted, she loved her mom and was happy that she cared about her this much, but she really just wanted to go to bed right now.
Really?
Oh God, not you!
Hm, well thank you for that lovely greeting
Yeah well…you're not welcome!
I was being sarcastic stupid! Anyway, you gonna answer my question?
Fine, yes I actually do want to go to bed right no-
Not that you idiot! I mean are you really okay?
Well…yeah
Uh huh, for some strange reason I don't believe you
Look conscience, I'm seriously fine about the Jake thing, it's just…Kitty-
Oh my GOD! Would you seriously just get back together with her! You have literally thought of nothing but Kitty for days, and I should know, I'm the brain!
Conscience don't you think that I would get back together with Kitty if I could?! I want to, more than anything but…she hates me
Oh come on Marley, she doesn't hate you
How could she not? I cheated on her conscience! CHEATED!
Yeah, I understand what cheating means, no need to freakin' yell!
Sorry I'm just…so frustrated with everything, I'm so frustrated with my life!
Yeah, yeah quit whining
Hey! This is the part where you're supposed to say 'don't worry Marley, everything will be fine and Kitty will love you again in not time and you'll get married and have little Marley and Kitty babies and everything will be perfect'!
…Yeah, uh I'm not gonna say that
Gosh, some conscience you are
Whatever, I'm not gonna lie to you, that's not my job
What's your job?
Uh duh, to tell you wrong from right! I thought you knew what a CONSCIENCE was Marley?
Ugh, whatever, stop talking to me now, I'm exhausted
From what? Thinking about Kitty?
Shut up!
"Alright then, well I think it's time for bed, goodnight sweetie, I love you" Mrs Rose' voice snaps Marley out of her thoughts and she sends her mother a warm smile.
"I love you too mom, night" she replies smiling softly, as her mom makes her way up the stairs leaving Marley standing alone in her living room, her thoughts going back to a certain blonde she cares for deeply.
"Okay, I should really get some sleep" she mumbles to herself tiredly, not because she was sleepy tired, but because she was emotionally tired, of feeling so many feelings at once. Love, sadness, regret, guilt, anger, frustration and love. Yeah you heard me right, I said love twice!
The brunette began making her way up the stairs and threw open the door to her room, falling onto the bed front first and groaning into the pillow. She sighed, getting up and pulling her pyjamas out of her drawer. Once she's comfortably changed into them and out of her dress, she settles back into her bed, clutching the black leather jacket Kitty had gave her that night tightly against her. Unconsciously smiling as she breathes in the fresh scent of Kitty Wilde.
She was just starting to drift off to sleep, when she heard a familiar tapping against her window. She felt her heart flutter and butterflies in her stomach at the thought of said blonde girl coming back to her, but she sadly pushed that thought to the back of her mind as she figured that that would most probably never happen again.
The blue eyed brunette slowly and curiously got out of her bed and cautiously walked toward her window. Her blue eyes widened in shock at seeing Kitty sitting outside patiently on the branch of the familiar tree outside her bedroom. Snapping out of her surprise, she quickly rushed forward and pulled open the window, not being able to help the small smile that tugged at her lips at seeing the girl she was madly in love with again.
"Kitty…what are you doing here?" Marley breathed out and Kitty's eyes flicked over to Marley's bed to see her leather jacket that she had handed Marley just a few hours ago and a small smile tugged at her own lips as she figured that Marley was probably going to sleep with it, and her heart couldn't help but melt at that thought. Snapping out of her thoughts, she turned her gaze back onto the blue eyed brunette in front of her and sucked in a deep breath.
"I just came back for my jacket" she answered shortly and looked at the disappointment in Marley's eyes as her shoulders sadly dropped. Kitty internally smiled as she spoke once more before Marley could have the chance to.
"And this" she said softly before surging forward and attaching her lips to Marley's. The brunette's eyes widened in surprise before they slowly closed and she eagerly kissed the blonde back, both girls sighing at how much they had missed the other's lips.
Kitty's hand came up to caress the blue eyed brunette's cheek, whereas Marley's came up to clutch at the blonds collar, to keep her there for as long as possible. When oxygen became a problem, both girls pulled away from each other with matching smiles on their faces, panting softly.
"I missed you so much" Marley whispered, her baby blue eyes shining brightly for the first time in three days.
"God, I missed you too" Kitty whispers back, leaning in for more and Marley eagerly accepts. After about ten seconds of softly kissing, Kitty moves her lips over to Marley's cheek, then her neck, then her shoulder as Marley giggles adorably. Kitty smiles and pulls the girl into an intimate hug, not paying any attention to the fact that she was still sitting in a tree.
"I love you Kitty, I'm so so sorry" Marley mumbles into the blondes shoulder, her eyes glistening slightly as she remembers how much she hurt the girl she loved. Kitty just shushes her softly, stroking her soft hair in comfort.
"Hey, hey it's alright, it's okay. I forgive you Mar, please don't cry" Kitty pleads softly, pulling back to wipe away a fallen tear that had escaped Marley's eye. The brunette sniffed slightly, smiling brightly at the fact that Kitty had forgiven her.
"Really? You forgive me?" Marley asks, wiping her nose with her sleeve as Kitty smiled warmly at her, nodding her head softly.
"Yeah, I do. I love you Marley" Kitty said softly, Marley breathed out a small laugh, her eyes sparkling with happiness making Kitty's heart flutter at the beautiful and adorable sight.
"Can I be your girlfriend again?" Marley asks so innocently that Kitty melts at how cute the brunette girl is.
"Of course you can Mar" Kitty smiles, Marley giggling in response before leaning in again for a quick kiss, to seal the deal.
"Oh, do you wanna come inside?" Marley asked, suddenly remembering that Kitty was still sitting on the sturdy branch outside. Kitty chuckled, nodding her head slightly.
"Um yeah, that would be nice" Kitty said jokingly, making Marley giggle again before she helped pull Kitty in through her window. When Marley turns around from shutting her window, her eyes widen as she looks at Kitty's bandaged hand.
"Oh my Gosh, Kitty what happened to your hand?" Marley asks worriedly, rushing forward to cradle the blonde girls wrapped hand in her own, inspecting it with careful eyes.
"Um, it's nothing-"Kitty starts but gets cut off by a worried Marley.
"Kitty this is not nothing, now please tell me how this happened" Marley pleads with her girlfriend, pulling her over to sit on her bed. Kitty takes in a deep breath, wondering if Marley would be mad at her for sort of ruining their tree.
"Okay um, well after you told me about…that thing, I got kind of angry and I went to our special place to clear my head" Kitty started explaining, Marley smiling slightly when Kitty referred to it as 'our special place'. "Then I saw our names in the tree and I got so angry and upset and I ended up…punching it, and that's how my hand got all messed up like this" Kitty finished explaining and Marley's eyes had already started to water.
"I really hurt you didn't I? God, Kitty I am so sorry for what I did" Marley exclaims, a tear beginning to roll down her cheek as Kitty furrows her eyebrows.
"Wait, you're not mad?" Kitty asks her, a little confused as to why the brunette wasn't at least a little mad that she had ruined her valentine's gift to her.
"What? Kitty, how could I be mad at you when this is all my fault?" Marley exclaims, a few tears now having dripped their way down her face and it breaks Kitty's heart to see the girl she loves look so guilty and sad. She shakes her head slightly, bringing her hands up to cup the brunette's cheeks, wiping away the fallen tears.
"Hey, I told you, I forgive you. Now please, stop beating yourself up about it, kay?" Kitty told her comfortingly, looking at Marley with caring eyes as the blue eyed brunette nods, sniffing and wiping at her tears as Kitty pulls her into a protecting embrace.
"Look, the past is the past; let's just focus on our future now" Kitty mumbles into soft brown hair and Marley smiles widely at her girlfriend's words.
"We have a future?" Marley asks, pulling away slightly and biting her lip. Kitty looks at her with her eyebrow rose slightly.
"Do you want us to?" she answers her question with a question, wanting to know if Marley thought that this was as serious as she thought it was. Marley looked at her for a second before smiling widely, nodding her head.
"I do" she smiled, Kitty smiling along with her when she heard her answer.
"Well then yes, we have a future" Kitty said, making Marley's smile grow even wider and her eyes shine even brighter.
"God, I love you so much Kitty Wilde" Marley breathed out, wrapping her arms around the blondes neck.
"Not as much as I love you Marley Rose" Kitty smiled, bumping their noses together cutely making Marley giggle and smile adoringly at the girl she loved more than anything.
"Hmm, I beg to differ" she said playfully before leaning forward and connecting their lips together once again, having missed having those sweet lips being pressed against her own. Not wanting the kiss to end, but in need of oxygen, Marley pulls away and bites her lip as she looks at Kitty unsurely.
"Um, I wanna show you something" she stated, looking a little nervous. Kitty remained silent, but gave the brunette a questioning look. Marley pulled out of Kitty's hold completely, making the blonde whimper slightly which brought a smile to Marley's face as she moved to sit on the floor in front of her drawers.
She took a deep breath before removing the fake bottom and pulling out a leather bound book and a pink folder filled with sheets. She took a deep breath before returning to her bed and sitting in front of a curious Kitty.
"Okay so um, first, this is my journal and I've been writing in it since that day you apologized to me about all the stuff you did. Pretty much all of it is about you but um, I want you to read it, so you can know how I really feel about you and know how much I trust you with this" Marley explained and Kitty smiled lovingly at the girl in front of her, she was beyond touched at the fact that Marley trusted her with something so special and personal to her.
"Wow Marley, this is-"
"Actually that's not it, inside this pink folder is a bunch of songs that I wrote…and I've never told anyone about them before, not even my mom but I'm kinda proud of them…do you wanna uh, maybe see some?" Marley asked, looking beyond nervous as she stared at the blonde in front of her. Kitty's eyebrows rose to her forehead as she processed the words Marley had said to her. Wow, Marley writes songs? Well to be honest it's not that big of a surprise, I mean I've always known Marley was really talented and was capable of writing her own songs. I can't believe she trusts me enough to show me this, when she hasn't even shown her mom! Wow…she must really love me.
Well no shit Sherlock
Of course, you just have to make a comment on everything in my life don't you?
Yup, pretty much
Uh huh, thought so
"Uh yeah! Yes, of course, I would love to see your songs" Kitty smiles genuinely and takes hold of Marley's hand as she notices that the brunette still looks a little unsure.
"A-are you sure? I mean, they might not be that good and-"
"Hey, I'm sure they're amazing, just like the person who wrote them" Kitty reassured and smiled charmingly at a swooning Marley.
"Awwww, you're just the sweetest!" Marley exclaims, peppering kisses all over a blushing Kitty's face.
"Yeah, yeah, can I see your songs now please?" Kitty asked, silently cursing herself for getting so embarrassed.
"Right, yeah sure" Marley replies, pulling back and handing over the pink folder, whilst nervously chewing on her bottom lip. Kitty smiled reassuringly at the brunette and opened up the folder, looking over the words and scribbles on each sheet carefully. Taking in all the emotions that Marley had felt and used to turn into many songs. And each one Kitty loved.
After around ten minutes, Kitty had finished looking through all of Marley's songs and closed the folder, looking up at an anxious Marley with an unreadable expression before she broke out into a warm smile.
"They are amazing Marley" Kitty states, Marley's shoulders sagging in relief as she releases a breath she didn't realize she was holding.
"Really? You like them?" Marley asks, smiling hopefully at the blonde, who nods, smiling back at her.
"I love them, Marley you have to show these to Mr Schue, these songs would win regionals for us, hell they'd win nationals" Kitty stated, handing the folder back to Marley as the brunette shook her head with fear strewn across her face.
"No way, I can't do that, you might think they're good enough but I don't and I really don't want to be the reason we lose regionals" Marley states, looking at Kitty with big doe eyes that the blonde just couldn't argue with her, even though she knew that Marley's songs were more than good enough to win them regionals, she didn't want to make the brunette do anything she didn't want to do. But before she could say anything, Marley continued.
"I mean I've never showed them to anyone before…well until now, but they're private and personal and-"
"Hey, say no more. You don't have to do anything you don't want to, okay?" Kitty told her comfortingly, making the blue eyed brunette smile in relief and nod her head. Suddenly, Kitty remembered what she had promised someone a couple hours ago.
"Oh hey I almost forgot…John wanted me to give this to you" Kitty stated, pulling a slightly crumpled white letter out of her back pocket and handing it to a really confused Marley.
"John? When did you see John?" she asked the blonde, confused out of her mind. John's back? She thought, a little fearfully to herself.
"Uh, well a couple hours ago I went to breadstix and John found me there…yeah, turns out he was the one that crashed into my dad's car and also saved my life by pulling me out, but leaving my father to die" Kitty told her, Marley's hands coming up to her mouth as she gasped in surprised, her eyes showing sympathy and a little anger.
"Oh my Gosh, Kitty I…I'm so sorr-"
"Hey, why are you apologizing again? This wasn't your fault, it was John's okay? Alright? Anyway, after he told me I went outside, I need some air, he followed me and I might have punched him in the face? I'm sorry, I was just so angry and I-"
"What? Kitty don't apologize, I would have done worse to him for what he did to you" Marley exclaimed, making Kitty smile slightly before she carried on telling Marley what happened.
"So anyway, after I calmed down, we talked for a little bit, he said sorry and all that. Then he made me promise to give this to you, now the guy may be a jerk, a huge asshole actually…but he did save my life and I think the least I could do is give this to you for him" Kitty finished, pointing to the letter still resting in Marley's hands. The blue eyed brunette frowned slightly.
"No, the least you could do is nothing" she mumbled, making Kitty chuckle a little before she leaned over to kiss Marley on the forehead.
"I'll give you some privacy, I need to go call my mother anyway, tell her I'll be late coming back…not that she cares" Kitty said playfully after a few seconds of thought, smiling at the small smile it brought to Marley's face. She sighed slightly at the scared look on her girlfriends face and gave her a reassuring look.
"Hey, it's gonna be alright, okay? I'll be right outside if you need me" Kitty told her, kissing Marley on the cheek and lingering for a few seconds before pulling away and walking backwards.
"I'll see you in a minute" she reassured, giving the brunette a thin lipped smile before climbing back out the window and down the tree, leaving Marley to her thoughts.
Okay, I can do this; it's just a letter Marley thought to herself, taking deep breaths to calm herself down. Ugh, why am I so scared to do this? She thought, frustrated.
Hmm, I dunno, maybe because this is the man that abandoned you when you were just a kid?
Yeah I know, you don't need to remind me
Well then…come on, open up the damn letter, I wanna know what this asshole has to say
Conscience! Language!
Hey, Kitty said it first!
…Okay, alright! Fine! I'll open the damn letter
Yes! That's my girl
Marley took one last shaky breath before opening up the crumpled letter in her hands and reading the words that had been written down.
Dear Marley,
I know how you must feel about me and I know that you most probably hate me. But I had to explain to you why I left you and your mother, I tried once before but I knew that you didn't care about what I had to say and I completely understand why. I loved you and your mother very much Marley and I hope you know that, but I had to leave you, I had no choice. I was in deep trouble with some men; I owed them money that I had borrowed from them to pay for things like the bill for our house. I had lost my job, but I didn't tell your mother because I didn't want her to worry. I had no money to pay them back, so that's why I left. They were dangerous men Marley, and I couldn't risk the chance of them hurting you or your mother. And that's the real reason why I left. I can only hope one day that you will forgive me, and please know that I love you very much Marley. And by the way, about your girlfriend Kitty, hold on to her, I like her, she'll protect you, something that wish I could do. And don't worry, by the time you've finished reading this letter, I'll be gone and you'll never have to see me again. I just wanted you to know the truth. I love you Marley and please tell your mother that I'm sorry.
John
By the time Marley had finished reading the letter, she was in tears and a choked sob had left her mouth. She sniffed and wiped at her eyes. He was protecting me she thought to herself in realization. It was then that Kitty decided to return, climbing her way through the window.
"Hey, how's the reading goin'?" she asked the brunette, smiling at her and before she had the chance to notice her tears, Marley had shot up out of her bed and flung herself into Kitty's arms, sobbing uncontrollably. Surprised, Kitty held onto the crying brunette, softly stroking her hair.
"Whoa, hey, hey what's wrong?" Kitty asked gently, Marley still clutching tightly onto her shoulders as if she were to let go then the whole world would end.
"He did care Kitty, he did care" Marley sobbed into the blondes neck, as Kitty softly shushed her, whispering soothing words into the brunettes ear as she began to calm down. After a few more seconds, Marley's sobs had calmed down to sniffs and she pulled away from Kitty, the blonde cupping her cheeks to wipe away the remains of her tears, smiling at her warmly and comfortingly. Marley's heart melted at how much this girl cared about her and she knew that she didn't want her to leave.
"Kitty, can you…can you stay with me tonight? I just really don't want to be alone" Marley asked, a little shyly and Kitty just smiled at her, her deep hazel eyes showing how much she loved and cared about Marley.
"Of course" Kitty answered softly, and Marley smiled at her gratefully, pulling the blonde over to lie on her bed with her, after Kitty had taken off her shoes. Kitty switched off the light and Marley snuggled impossibly closer to her, wanting to feel every bit of Kitty's warmth on her skin.
"I love you so much" Marley told her, her head resting on Kitty's chest and the gentle and steady beat of the blondes heart letting peace and safety wash over her for the first time in what felt like forever to the brunette, but what was really only three days.
"I love you too Marley" Kitty answered, smiling softly into brown hair.
"Kitty?" Marley asked after a few moments of peaceful silence.
"Yeah?" Kitty replied, soothingly rubbing Marley's back up and down, making the brunette close her eyes and sigh softly in relaxation.
"Can you sing for me? Please?" Marley asked timidly, biting her lip and hoping that her request wasn't too forward.
"Sure" Kitty answered after a few seconds of silence, making Marley sigh in relief and relax back into Kitty, snuggling deeper into the warmth of her girlfriend.
Kitty wracked through her brain for a song to sing to her beautiful girlfriend, and a small smile appeared on her face when she thought of the perfect one.
It's you and me,
The stars and moon will keep us company,
They'll watch over us as we fall asleep,
And I will hold you close
So lay your head down on my pillowcase
Close your eyes and feel my warm embrace
Cause in my arms you know you will be safe
And I will hold you close
Kitty sang softly and smoothly, watching as Marley lightly hummed along to the song, smiling at the cute sight of Marley Rose as she continued singing softly into the night.
So baby let my heartbeat be
The rhythm that puts you to sleep
My smile will be the first thing you see
When you wake up
When you wake up
So dream with me
Hold my hand; escape reality
Let my love be your cavalry
And I will hold you close
Marley had stopped humming now; having slowly started to drift off at the sound of Kitty's soothing voice. Feeling safe and protected in Kitty's arms plus the soothing sound of Kitty singing to her, she felt as if nothing could ever harm her.
Don't you worry; I'll be by your side
I promise I'll be here all through the night
I'll comfort you until morning light
And I won't let you go
So baby let my heartbeat be
The rhythm that puts you to sleep
My smile will be the first thing you see
When you wake up
Kitty looked down at her girlfriend to see that Marley had almost fully succumbed to sleep, looking as peaceful and relaxed as ever. The blonde smiled adoringly at the sight and continued her lullaby.
So baby let my heartbeat be
The rhythm that puts you to sleep
My smile will be the first thing you see
When you wake up
So baby let my heartbeat be
The rhythm that puts you to sleep
My smile will be the first thing you see
When you wake up
Kitty looked at Marley, only to see that the brunette was now snoring lightly and she smiled, lowering her voice slightly as she sang the last part of the song, not wanting to wake the peaceful and adorable brunette.
So baby let my heartbeat be
The rhythm that puts you to sleep
My smile will be the first thing you see
When you wake up
When you wake up
Kitty softly finished the song, gently kissing Marley's forehead and wrapping her arms tighter around the brunette's waist.
"I love you Marley Rose" she whispered into the peaceful night, and slowly drifted off to sleep, holding her love to her chest protectively. And for the first time in three days, she felt as if everything would be okay.
…
