Carmilla's POV
I barely touched any of the food on my plate, but that was mainly because of Laura. She had several facial expressions in about three seconds, while eating the food. I mean, yea LaF is a great cook, but her reactions were priceless.
"Carm, are you gonna even eat your food? I mean yes, this was your idea, but you have to eat to! Please, just eat something for me. Just so I know you're going to be okay," she said, concerned. Her face turned to a very worried expression, that didn't look like it should be there. I grabbed her hand gently and circled my thumb around in a comforting manor. That seemed to be all she needed because she quickly relaxed and smiled at me. A smile crept onto my lips, and I looked right into her eyes. They were shining brightly, brighter than I've ever seen.
A loud coughing interrupted any response that I was going to say. I looked to where it came from, and of course it was from Xena. I almost gave a death glare her way, but then I felt a light tap on my hand. All of my anger subsided when I saw her challenging expression. Laura then whispered, "Are you really going to give her the meanest glare in the world, or are you going to finish what you were trying to tell me? I'd rather have the calm Carmilla over the broody Carmilla any day."
I gave her a soft smile and leaned over to kiss her cheek. "If you want the calm Carmilla, you also have to be with the broody version as well. For now, I will be the caring girlfriend, but if Danny does one more thing, I'm gonna lose it. I'm just glad you are enjoying your food Cupcake," I whispered in her ear. She shivered and breathed in deeply, and I was glad I had that affect on her.
I quickly sat back down in my chair and saw that she had her eyes closed and her face was bright red. Damn, she looked extremely gorgeous in that moment. Her eyes slowly opened and looked deep into mine. She quickly got up, and I was about to stand up with her, when she gave me a look that said, "Don't you dare get up." So I just sat down dumbfounded.
Laura's POV
As soon as I opened my eyes I saw deep compassion in Carmilla's, but it was very hard to see because of how good she is at hiding emotions. I wanted to just kiss her so badly in that moment, but I needed to do something. So I got up very quickly, and when I heard Carmilla's chair move I sent her a glare that warned her not to follow. Her face had turned to one of confusion, but I didn't have time to explain so I quickly turned to where Danny was sitting and walked over. She gave me a surprised look, but then the gaze softened when she realized Carmilla wasn't behind me.
"Danny, could you please not be so obnoxious about Carmilla and I? I just wanted a good breakfast, not be surrounded by bullets flying from you and Carmilla. At least she is mature and didn't even cause a scene. Please be considerate about others." Instead of giving a polite response back she quickly gave me the death glare and stood up. Worst. Decision. Ever. She had her face close to mine and growled, "Why the fuck would I want to do that? I'd much rather have a fight with her. Right here, right now."
"Xena, you should really respect my girlfriend's wishes. Trust me." The sound shocked me, but only because I didn't ever hear her walk up behind me. I turned to see a challenging look on Carm's face. Danny returned the look of course, so I quickly got in between them.
"Laura, please get out of the fucking way so that I can rip your girlfriend to smithereens."
"No. I actually enjoy Carmilla's company, so you should just get the hell out of here. Before things get really out of hand."
"It already is! Carmilla's here," Danny growled.
"I may be here, but you're the one that's about to get toasted," Carmilla threatened.
"Carm! You're not helping anything! I just wanted to spend time with my beautiful vampire girlfriend! Not you and Danny fighting. Please, let's just leave and go home," I whimpered.
"Fuck no! I promised you a great day and that's what you're going to get. Even if Danny is being an ass, I'd rather us just sit back down and enjoy each other's company."
"I'm right here! I'd much rather fight Carmilla than let you guys have a perfect fucking moment together! I need to fight Carmilla again!"
"Woah, what does she mean by again?"
"Um, huh? I didn't hear her say anything..." she replied.
"Carm! Do not dodge my question. I'm serious."
"I know, that's the scary thing."
"Carmilla, do not joke about anything right now! Did you get hurt?" I asked concerned. Before her reply could be heard, LaF ran up to the battle that was about to erupt.
"Danny! I told you not to start anything and what do you do? You fucking start something!"
"Me?! Camilla gave me the death glare first!"
"Danny, I saw the whole thing near the counter, so don't lie to me. When you coughed loudly, Carmilla did look your way, but quickly turned to Laura and smiled then Laura said something and Carmilla leaned and whispered something in her ear. After, Laura comes over to your table and I could hear that she sounded very genial, but you just turned on her. That's all I payed attention to, so Danny get out."
"But I didn't-"
"Get. Out. Of. My. Cafe," they interrupted.
