Chapter 36:

The morning after

The first thing that Velvette felt once she woke up was the pounding headache that was currently ravaging the inside of her skull.

The short demoness hadn't opened her eyes yet but she could feel the morning "sun?" of the pride ring shine through the window and warming her face.

Normally, this feeling would be pleasant, but at this moment, all the short fashionista wanted was to just wrap herself in her blanket and hope this day would pass quickly.

However, once she did so, she didn't exactly recognize the smell of these blankets…something was off….

She slowly sat up, causing her stomach to twist slightly, making her regret her decision almost right away as she began to rub the sleep from her eyes.

But as she opened them, she realized something "…wait…..this isn't my studio….."

She would scan the room she was in, noticing her clothes thrown rudely around the room, as if she had been in a hurry to take them off the night before, however, her eyes widened when they landed on an all too familiar angelic battle axe that was currently leaning against a wall, next to which, on the ground, were 2 ornate angelic, carmine-craft hand pistols.

Eyes wide in realization, she would slowly turn her head to the spot in the large king sized bed next to her.

There, splayed out like a starfish, mouth wide open was the familiar shape of the object of her affection, the anarchy overlord known as Ashley….completely stark naked and dead asleep, a small trail of drool coming from her mouth as she snored softly, as she sported a serious case of bed-head, her hair being an absolute mess.

As Velvette realized she had been sleeping next to a butt naked Ashley, she noticed another thing, some of the scratch and bite marks on the anarchy demon's body looked…new…..fresh…..and were those lipstick stains all over her?

Upon closer inspection, Velvette would recognize that lipstick anywhere…..that was HER lipstick…..and as it slowly dawned on her, she slightly lifted the blankets and took a peek, only to discover she too was stark naked, covered in bite marks and lipstick stains.

As Velvette started to put the puzzle pieces together, she detected movement next to her as she heard a soft murmur "…..morning…slept well?"

Velvette would rubberneck to the origin of the noise, only to see Ashley had turned her way, looking at her with a half awake expression, tho a certain fondness in her eyes as a subtle smile sneaked onto her face, however, Velvette would immediately regret her decision as her head began to pound from the sudden movement.

Seeing the shorter woman's face contort into a pained grimace, Ashley would slowly get up "How about I make us some breakfast? Just throw on a shirt and meet me in the kitchen, ok Vel?" she said with a smile. Velvette was still in the middle of rubbing her temples as her head pounded when she was pulled from her thoughts by a subtle finger under her chin that pulled her face up, and then a soft set of lips on her forehead as Ashley planted a soft kiss on her aching head before sauntering off as she spoke "I put down a fresh towel for ya in the bathroom yesterday in case you wanted to freshen up" she said as she pointed to the door to the adjoining bathroom.

As she received the affectionate gesture, Velvette temporarily forgot all about her aching head as she couldn't help but stare at the shark overlord as she sauntered off. It was almost as if she was laying on the charm, cuz Velvette was pretty sure she had NEVER seen Ashley rock her hips like that when she walked before.

Being snapped out of her daydream by the subtle drumming of her hangover, the short fashionista managed to pry herself out of bed, by now becoming VERY aware of her aching joints, making her wonder what exactly the 2 of them all did that night as she grabbed the shirt she was offered as pajamas the night before and hopped into the bathroom.

The warm water did wonders on the doll demoness's aching body as she scrubbed herself down, before patting herself dry, throwing the shirt on and wrapping the towel around her impressive head of hair as she made her way to the kitchen, following what she could only describe was the smell of pancakes.

As she had arrived in the kitchen, her suspicions were confirmed as the round table was adorned with different topings, as well as a bottle of syrup, some plates and cutlery.

Next to what Velvette could only assume would be her plate, there was a glass of water and some pills.

"Well good morning, beautiful" Ashley would pipe up with a smile, currently engrossed in making breakfast, a spatula in one hand and a frying pan in the other as she was wearing a cooking apron…..and nothing else….. "I got ya some pretty strong painkillers. You drank like a fucking sailor yesterday and I kinda figured you'd have it bad today so I pulled out the big guns, should kick in in about 10 minutes or so" the shark grinner would smile as Velvette was now able to see that her apron spelled "Fuck the cook"

Velvette would sit down at the table as she popped the painkillers into her mouth and with a few gulps of water, got them down before Ashley added "I also added something in there to settle your stomach a bit. A night of drinking like that always does a number on my guts so I figured it'd calm down whatever rollercoaster you got going on in your stomach right now"

The short fashionista would smile at the kind gestures "T-thanks, Ashley…..that's really sweet…." She managed to croak out, her voice kinda course as she poured herself a glass of orange juice.

"Say…..Ashley…..last night….did we…."ya know"?" Velvette asked as she felt a blush creep over her cheeks.

"Have sex? Oh yea, we fucked HARD. I tried to decline cuz you were very drunk and I didn't wana take advantage of you but you were VERY persistent" Ashley piped up with a smirk as she plopped down one of the freshly baked pancakes on Velvette's plate, before doing the same to her own.

The social media overlord would pour some syrup over her pancake as slowly, the memories from the night before came trickling back into her mind as her face became beat red "Oh…..oh damn….we…..really went at it, didn't we…." She muttered to herself as she felt a dopey smirk creep onto her face, she literally couldn't stop herself from smiling as she dug in.

Ashley just giggled "Well we got the marks to prove it" as she gestured to the bite and lipstick marks that were littering the both of their bodies.

Ashley's face would suddenly take on a serious, concerned look "you….don't regret it….right? Yesterday, you gave me the impression you REALLY wanted this, but you were drunk so….i get it if you have…well…mixed feelings about it" as she sat down next to the shorter overlord "You ok, Vel?"

Velvette would lock eyes with Ashley, and as she looked at her, all she could see was someone concerned with her wellbeing. Velvette couldn't help herself as she grabbed her by the cheek and pulled her into a kiss, which caused the shark sinner to eep in surprise. And as Velvette broke away, she smiled "Does that answer your question?"

Ashley would look at her with wide eyes first, before her gaze softened "Yea….yea it does…" the 2 women had no idea where this was going to lead, but the both of them were more then willing to explore…..…together…..
