Akali's POV (the next day):


As soon as Akali woke up, she hoped that all that happened yesterday was just a bad dream, some kind of a bad joke. Sadly, all it took to discard the idea was a slight turn of her head. Behind her, the blood-haired woman was sleeping peacefully with her arms enveloped around the teenager's waist. The ninja stared at the sleeping form of her so-called girlfriend before she averted her gaze to check what time it was. With some problems, Rogue was able to pull her phone out of the pocket and unclocked it. She sighed heavily when the smartphone displayed its main screen. It was 5:12 am. Akali was more than sure that she wouldn't be able to sleep anymore, nor she wanted to. The black-haired girl started to wriggle a little to soften the grip of Katarina. She tried her hardest not to wake up the still sleeping assistant, but in the end, she failed to do so.

"Babe, why are you wriggling that much? It is still so early … let's sleep some more," the whine-like voice escaped the throat of the redhead.

"Sorry, Kat, but I need to get going. I have school in a few hours, and I need to prepare for it," Akali replied swiftly.

"You have PE with me as your first class today, so what's the problem?" The older woman asked. "We can just come to school from here, and I can lend you some of my clothes."

"No, I need to go home. I will see you later," Rogue said calmly and started to rise up from the couch.

"Why?"

"Ehhh … Kat, I don't keep my stuff in the school locker. Besides that, I need a shower cause you didn't allow me to take one yesterday," the young woman responded. "By the way, I think you need one too, you are still sweaty," Akali added after a few seconds.

"You say?" Katarina asked. "Gosh, you're right," the redhead mumbled shortly after. "Can I have at least a peck for now?"

"Ehhh … fine. Come here, then," the black-ink-haired teenager sighed.

The younger girl softly cupped the chin of the latter and slowly leaned in. She didn't want to do it. Sadly, Akali knew all too well that the only way for Katarina to let her go was to obey the older woman in some of her little desires. The teenager stopped when her lips were only millimetres away from her so-called girlfriend. Rogue hesitated only for a fraction of a second. Her hesitation didn't last long enough for Katarina to notice. Akali licked her dry lips before kissing the redhead's lips in the sweetest and passionate way she could muster in a given moment. She tried to make it as quick as possible, but the hungry assistant wouldn't let her do so, at least not so easily. As soon as the younger woman wanted to withdraw, Katarina enveloped her arms around Rogue's neck, deepening the kiss. It was an enjoyable sensation, she would have to lie if she said otherwise. Akali decided that she would allow the moment to last a few seconds longer before she broke it. Immediately, she heard a pout, and slander arms tried to pull her closer.

"Kat, it's enough," Rogue said in her natural, calm voice.

"Shhh, it isn't … I want more," Katarina whispered. "Give me more, I won't be able to share a kiss with you in school."

"Kat, I need to get going if I want to be in school on time," Akali tried to reason the redhead.

"5 more minutes," the assistant pouted. "We both know that you're always ahead of time, so what's the problem?"

"Babe, I need to catch a bus home, clean myself, pick up the stuff for school, and then again catch a bus," the black-haired teenager replied.

"What, why? I thought that your legal guardian drops you directly to the school," the surprised assistant asked.

"Normally, yes, but she was out for the weekend, and she said that she would pick me up after school," the younger girl responded, rolling her eyes.

"Something happened?"

"Nah, she just went to a friend of hers. Everything is fine."

"Ok, but do you really need to go?" Katarina started. "Look, if you take a shower here, and then I give you a lift home and school, we can cuddle and make out a little more. What do you think?"

"I … I need to collect my thoughts. What happened yesterday made my life a bit messier than it was before," Akali whispered after a short sigh. "I need time to pull myself together, and I think I need to be alone at least for a couple of minutes."

"You mean … what I told you about?"

"Yeah, that's pretty much it. Look, I don't want to hurt you, but I need to go, I need to go out and face my inner demons," Rogue said quietly.

"I wish I could do something … I …" Katarina started.

"It isn't needed, I need to rethink a few things. Kat?" The girl called. "See you at school. See you soon."

"Yeah, see ya. And I'm sorry, Akali. I'm really sorry."

"Don't mention it, we need to just get you out of that shit, that's all."

Strangely, after those words sounded, the silence fell upon them. Akali got up, picked up all of her things, and marched toward the exit. She didn't look back, she didn't want to. Even though she didn't want to make the older woman cry, in the end, she did so. While the black-haired teenager was putting on her shoes, the muffed sound of sobbing reached her ears. Rogue must pull of her self control not to go back and try to comfort the redhead. Akali's eyes became glassy, wet, she needed to leave before she would start to cry as well.

Never in her life, the ninja was running that fast. The tears forced their way to her eyes. She didn't want any of it, but of course, she would have to deal with all the mess that would soon come. Akali felt betrayed, sad, enraged, hurt. All of her feelings were mixing together, creating a complete mess from her mind. The girl needed to take a rest, she needed to calm herself, she needed to regain her composure. The very moment she sat down at the bus stop, Rogue broke down entirely. She covered her face with her hands and started to cry openly. Sometimes, there is nothing more for one to do than to cry its pain away. And, it seemed that it was the case for Akali at that time.

Evelynn's POV (Monday afternoon):


All it took for Evelynn to notice that something was off, was one glance at her protégé. As soon as she left the building of her school, she dropped her head low and slouched. Something was definitely off, but the lawyer just couldn't correctly put her finger on what caused the sudden change in the girl's mood. Soon enough, Akali reached the magenta-haired woman's car, opened the door quietly, sat, and fastened the seatbelts. The teenager was worryingly quiet.

"What happened, darling?" Evelynn asked tenderly, but worrying note could be heard in her voice.

"I'm just a mess, you know," Akali replied, bowing her head even lower as if she was embarrassed.

"Honey, you aren't messed. You're just an extraordinary teenager who has gone through a lot. That's all," Eve tried to cheer the girl up. "Rogue, talk to me. Tell me what's on your mind?"

"I … I …," the black-haired girl started to mumble. "I have a friend that is really addicted to sex."

"Did that friend of yours tried to force you?" The older woman immediately asked.

"Yeah, she tried, but I didn't allow it to happen," the latter responded quietly. "But, she's important to me, at least to some extent, and I care about her. I just don't want to see her suffering, but she rejected to go see the doc," the teenager sighed.

"You're talking about Katarina, I assume?"

"Yeah, it's her."

"What had happened during the weekend?" The diva asked softly, enveloping her slender arms around the neck of the latter.

"I don't know how to describe it," Akali started. "Saturday was fine, we met in a park, talked, walked and so on. She cut our little date if you want to name that meeting that way earlier, and told me that her family needed something from her. Then, on Sunday, she wanted me to come over to her house. I agreed to come only because I sensed that she had some kind of problem, but I wasn't sure what was it."

"Hmm … what happened next?"

"As I promised, I came over to her, but unexpectedly instead of talking to me, she chose to force a kiss on me," the girl confessed. "If I didn't stop her, she wouldn't stop on her own," the ninja admitted in a low tone. "But it isn't the reason why I'm just sad now."

"What is the reason, then?"

"When I stopped her, I forced her to talk to me, or at least to some extent," Rogue said, swallowing a gulp that formed in her throat. "Katarina told that she was so head over heels with me that."

"It isn't that bad, is it?" Eve forced herself to respond.

"I guess not … but she cheated on me," the teenager sobbed. "She told me that she wanted us to proceed in that relationship, but she couldn't wait. She bedded some girl or at least tried. Katarina said that she couldn't do it, cause all she was seeing in front of her eyes, was me," Akali cried out.

"Ehhh … baby, don't cry," the magenta-haired woman tried to calm down her protégé. "I know that it hurts, but it pains me to see you like that."

"Sorry," the girl whispered, hugging the lawyer tightly. "I really want to help her, but I don't think I will be able to trust her ever again," Akali confessed. "I told her that I wasn't ready, I told her that she means a lot to me, but it seems that it was futile."

"Shhh … I'm here, darling. I won't allow her to hurt you again," the older woman cooed. "Why did she do that?" Evelynn asked, but deep inside of her mind, she has already known the answer. Why, because she did the same.

"I don't know," the ordinarily tough teenager whined. "If she asked for help, I would do as much as I could, but instead, she did cheat."

"I know that it hurts, but you must go through it. I'm by your side, if you need anything, I'm just here."

"Can … can we just go home? I need to sort my mind and collect my thoughts?" Rogue asked.

"Of course, darling. Do you want me to order some dinner for us?"

"Yeah, I don't feel like cooking, at least not now," the black-inked-haired teenager admitted with an apologising facial expression. "I'm sorr …"

"You have nothing to apologise for," Eve interrupted her swiftly. "You have a problem, and you don't feel like doing something none-essential. It's fine. It really is."

"Ok …" the girl replied.

"Akali?" The siren called.

"Yeah?"

"I want you to know that I'll do everything to ensure that you're happy."

"I know, Eve. I appreciate it greatly. I really do."

Akali let her legal guardian go, but she grabbed her right hands and put their enveloped hands on the gearbox. To say that Evelynn was surprised, shocked, would be an understatement. Even in her wildest dream, she wouldn't imagine the teenager doing something so simple, but so unique at the same time. She welcomed the opportunity wordlessly, and tighten her grip, reassuring the broken-down girl. Withing next ten or so seconds, the vehicle's engine roared, and the car was wheel-spinning away.

Evelynn's POV (the very next day, evening):


The magenta-haired diva was utterly exhausted after a crazy day of work. The case she was working on for quite some time by now turned out to be even more difficult and intricate than the client informed her. The living goddess spent nearly entirety of her shift hanging on a phone, calling the people who could know something valuable to the case. In the end, it was just a waste of time. Nobody knew anything meaningful, or they didn't want to share the info with her. Eve even considered for a moment to bribe some of those people. She didn't do it, because she knew all too well that all of her calls would be recorded. The lawyer was furious, enraged, exhausted. She tried to calm herself by reading, but she wasn't even sure what book she had chosen.

The siren gave up after an hour of reading the same page, she couldn't focus on the written text. The diva gently wiped her tired eyes. She felt a throbbing pain, which could only have foreshadowed a migraine. There were no doubts that Evelynn would need some painkillers, and maybe some alcohol. Without much thinking, she rose from the leather-clad couch and headed to the bar that was located on the nearest wall. It was a rare situation for her to chill out in the living room instead of her bedroom, but to be frank, she hadn't had the energy to climb the stair when she had come back home. The magenta-haired had done only one thing before falling down onto the furniture, she had taken off her shoes, and to be honest, she didn't even know where she had put them.

It could have been considered a weird choice to put painkillers inside of the bar, but for Evelynn, it didn't really matter. By doing so, she ensured that she had everything she would ever possibly need in case of the sudden migraine in one place. As soon as she reached the container, the living goddess swallowed a pill and took a sip of water. The very next thing she did was to fill the glass with a dry white wine. The magenta-haired woman took the bottle in case she needed more of the liquid and returned to the couch. Surprisingly, the wine didn't taste as good as usual. The lawyer sighed deeply and lied down once again. She closed her eyes and put the right hand onto her brow. Oh, how she wished that that was over already.

She heard the sound of footsteps on the stairs. With a bit of problem, she rose to a seated position. "Crap, I must have fallen asleep," she cursed under her nose. Before she was even able to stand up, Akali entered the room. She wore the short, tight, green tee, and a pair of black leggings. Evelynn's mouth went dry in an instant, her protégé looked so good in those skimpy clothes. The older woman apparently got a treat in the form of the exposed abdominal muscles of the teenager. Nearly all of her midriff was revealed. "Damn, I didn't even notice when she gained those muscles," the woman reminded herself.

"Akali?" Eve called. "What's going on?"

"Hey … Eve?" The girl started.

"Yeah, what's on your mind, darling?"

"Can I … can I sleep by your side, and cuddle for a few moments?" The teenager asked shyly.

"Ehh …" Evelynn gasped visibly.

"Sorry … I stepped too far. I will return to my room," Akali replied with apologising facial expression.

"No … No … Akali, come here," the magenta-haired woman called after the latter. "Of course we can cuddle, that is if you want to."

"Yeah … I want to, and I need it," Rogue responded quietly and lowered her head slightly.

"Come here, then. Come to me," Eve said softly.

"Are … are you sure?" the younger girl hesitated. "If it doesn't, I will just go to my room and leave you rest as you want."

"It's fine, it's more than just fine," the magenta haired woman replied, pulling her near with her index finger. "Come here, come to me, baby," the lawyer cooed.

"O … Ok," the girl mumbled.

Following the voice of the siren, the black-haired teenager closed the gap between them. As soon as she stood beside the couch, she lowered herself. The girl ended up lying on top of the gorgeous woman.

"Is it alright? Can I lay on your chest and hug you tightly?" the shallow voiced question escaped Akali's mouth. She seemed to be extremely embarrassed with the current situation that she initiated.

"It's ok, go on," Evelynn encouraged the shy black-haired.

The entire frame of the latter tensed for a moment, but in the end, she proceeded. Rogue buried her head in the bosom of the lawyer. At the same time, her strong hands were being enveloped around the waist of the siren. The skin of the older woman was so warm, so delicate. It felt so pleasant to touch it, creased it. Even though overall the sensation was pleasurable toward the younger girl, she was tensed. Akali was uncertain whether she should allow herself for such an intimacy toward her crush.

"Darling?" Eve called. "Why are you … so tensed, so uncertain. You seem as not you. What's going on, baby?" the lawyer asked, the evident concern filling her voice. "Where is all of your confidence?"

"I don't … I don't know," Akali whispered, hugging the diva even tighter. "I really wish I do, but I don't," the teenager added.

"Try to relax," Evelynn whispered. "If it helps you, I am here, and I won't let you go, I won't let you be hurt."

"I know," Rogue replied while exhaling. "I really appreciate all you do for me, but now all I need is just time. I can't help that but be tensed. I need to collect myself, relax."

"Babe, just relax," coo-like response was provided by the magenta-haired beauty. "Forget about everything and just try to calm yourself. If you want, just try to take a nap. I'll make sure to hold you tight while your mind drifts away."

"It sounds so nice, thank you," Akali replied with a small sheepish smile on her young face.

True to her words, Evelynn hugged back the latter. As soon as she did, the siren started to crease invisible lines upon the back of the teenager. With every single move of her delicate hands, she felt the firm muscles of the girl softening under her touch. "It's going smoothly, at least for now," the lawyer acknowledged inside of her mind.

"Do you want to take a nap?" Eve asked in a whisper-like manner.

"If I manage to fall asleep, sure," Rogue responded after a short moment of silence. "I … I just don't want to bother you …"

"Shhh," the siren interrupted the teenager. "You aren't bothering me, you will never bother me, remember that."

"Ok," the black-haired girl replied shyly.

"Just close your eyes, maybe think about something nice, relax, and the sleep with soon come to you," the magenta-haired beauty instructed the latter. "It isn't that difficult, dear just give it a try," the woman smiled.

"I will, thanks," the ninja responded.

It took a couple of moments for Akali to think about the current situation. To be perfectly honest, it didn't make any sense at all, the relationship between her and her legal guardian was to put it lightly messed-up. The situation between them was confusing, to say at least. For the young girl, it was really challenging to decide whether some of her actions were appropriate or not.

In the end, she decided to take an opportunity given by fate and the magenta-haired woman. Slowly the teenager readjusted her position. She allowed herself to end up behind the diva. Once, she felt comfortable, she enveloped her arms around her guardian. As soon as she did it, Rogue put her head down onto the nape of the woman.

"Thank you," the girl whispered. "I think I will take a nap," she added, feeling that the much-needed sleep was at hands reach.

"Do it, I'm here, and I'm not going anywhere," the golden-eyed beauty assured the latter.

Evelynn didn't receive any response, but nearly immediately she felt that the grip of the latter tightened around her waist. The hot and slightly moist breath of the teenager was tickling her nape. To be honest, she didn't mind it, but somehow, it was slowly turning her on. Frankly saying, the current situation there were both in, was the closest and the most intimate moments they ever shared. It felt so good to have the girl so near to her, to be able to breathe her scent, to feel Akali's warm body pressed against her. The only problem with it was that she didn't deserve it, the teenager probably didn't even think about her as a potential partner, lover. Rogue deserved so much better, but Evelynn was at the edge. She wanted the teenager to be hers, but more than that, she wanted her to be happy, to be protected.

Minutes were passing so slowly that the magenta-haired lawyer thought that hours passed since the ninja had fallen asleep next to her. In her mind, the constant battle between what she should do and what she wanted to do was taking place. What started as a little nuisance a couple of months earlier became a real problem that was speedy getting out of Eve's control. It would be so nice to forget about everything, to be able to turn around, to cup the chin of the latter, and to kiss her the way she deserved to be kissed.

The magenta-haired woman gasped suddenly when she felt that one of her breasts was groped. It was so unexpected that in the very first moment, the woman didn't know what happened. A moment later, something clicked inside of her head. She looked down and immediately saw that Akali reached for her tit with one of her hands while the second was moving toward the womanhood of the siren. To say that it was shocking realisation would be an understatement. The latter was sleeping, but her body was reacting on her own. After the initial grope, the latter started to tenderly massage the breast of the diva. In the meantime, the second hand reached its target and started to crease small circles at the lawyer's pelvis level. All it took for Evelynn to overcome the surprises was a few short moments. After that, the wave of immense pleasure came to her mind. Unintentionally she moaned loudly. As if she earned the reward from the asleep black-haired girl behind her, the teenager started to place small kisses on her nape. They were so light as fathers, but they left the burning sensation upon the skin of diva.

Evelynn was at a loss of words. She didn't know what to do. The sensation was too pleasant to interrupt, but on the other hand, it was way too inappropriate. The older woman was battling with her own thoughts for a couple of minutes before the asleep ninja made a decision for her. The hem of Evelynn's dress was pulled up slightly. Rogue's firm hand found its way to the thongs of the diva, immediately putting a slight pressure upon the swollen clit. Once again, the lawyer moaned from pleasure. For her, it was a turning point, no longer did she care about the consequences, she wanted more. Without hesitation, Eve put her own hands on the latter's and encouraged the girl to put a bit more pressure. To her satisfaction, the body of the ninja followed the suggestion. The magenta-haired woman was more than happy. She was relished every single second of that situation. Soon enough, she closed her eyes, bit her lower lip. Without her sight, she recreated the encounter inside of her mind, and she loved it.

Within a few moments, or maybe minutes, the siren fell asleep right next to her beloved protégé. If only she had one wish to be fulfilled in real life, it would be for Akali to be hers.

Evelynn's POV (an hour, or so later):


After some time, Evelynn slowly opened her eyes of the molten-gold. For a couple of moment after awakening, all she could see were black strands. In the beginning, that detail didn't make any sense to her at all. Soon enough, the memories began to flood her mind. To be frank, the lawyer was scared, she fell asleep being pleased by her protégé, but somehow the roles were reversed currently. The slender arms of the diva rested on the still asleep frame of the girl. Nearly immediately, the siren noticed that her hands ended up on the midriff of the latter. Evelynn's long and gentle fingers were creasing lines on the exposed muscles. They were strong, warm, and so freaking intoxicating to her. The lawyer allowed herself to close her eyes once again. The older woman tried to picture the body of the girl inside of her mind. With every single move of her hands, the new layer of the picture was being added, as if Eve wanted so desperately to recreate Akali. Although it took the diva some time, she managed to do it. She must admit, the final result shocked her, to say at least.

In her mind, before her own eyes, Akali stood clothed in just a white lace set that she chose for her months ago. The teenager … pardon, the young woman looked gorgeous. Rogue's hairs were put on a messy bun leaving only a couple strands of raven hairs. Unexpectedly, the small lips of the ninja were painted in a bloody-red colour which added some spiciness to her look. As always, one detail of the teenager's body caught her eyes in an instant. The defined muscles of Akali's midriff were covered with small droplets as if she trained a few moments earlier. One of them, slightly bigger than the others, started to run down the abdomen toward the crotch of the black-haired girl. The hungry eyes of the diva followed it, followed it to the point when the droplet was soaked by the thin material of the thongs.

Without a single thought, Eve licked her dry lips and tried to avert her gaze from the panties of the latter. As she expected, it wasn't such an easy task for her. Once, she finally managed to do it, she gasped. In a matter of a fraction of a second, Rogue closed the gap between them and pulled her close. It wasn't the usual Akali's behaviour, so it caught her off guard. In the very next moment, the diva felt that her feet were lifted from the floor. Instinctively, the lawyer enveloped her arms around the neck of the latter, trying her best not to fall. It was just a futile and nonsensical effort. Akali pulled her up, and the siren ended up being hold in a firm bridal style.

Evelynn wanted to ask what was going on, but the question never escaped her mouth. She was nearly immediately silenced by the hungry lips of her protégé. It was so unexpected, so shocking, but it felt right. Without much thinking, she yielded to the sensual kiss and allowed Akali to lead the moment.

It felt so good, it was too good to be the truth, Eve knew that, but she still couldn't let it go. She smiled while her livid dream continued. Even though her mind was preoccupied with the sensual encounter between her and her protégé, her body could rest. She could finally rest, relax, for the first time in months.

Akali's POV (the next day in the morning):

As soon as the raven-haired teenager heard the footsteps behind her, she sighed heavily. The girl waited a few more seconds before turning around to face her so-called "girlfriend". No one else would bother her in the cloakroom after the school football team's training. Akali didn't even have to turn around entirely to verify whether she was right or wrong. A few steps behind her, the blood-haired woman stood with a broad smile on her lips. The moment their eyes connected, the assistant winked.

"You look hot today," Katarina complimented in a purre-like manner.

"Thanks … I guess," Rogue replied in a dull voice. "What do you want, Kat?"

"Am I not allowed to see my super hot badass girlfriend from time to time?" the redhead asked. "We don't talk much recently, I wanted to check on you."

"Kat, you know precisely why we aren't talking much, so cut that shit-talk, please," Akali responded in a bit irritated voice.

"Babe …,"

"Don't "babe" me, you know what you did, you know what consequences are," the raven-haired girl interrupted. "So, I ask once more, what do you want?"

"Can't we just fix it?" Katarina asked shyly. "You know to make things as they used to be?"

"And how do you want to make them as they used to be?" the teenager asked in a cold tone. "Am I not allowed to be disappointed in you, after what you did? Is my anger not justified?"

"Babe, I know I did wrong, but I want it to be fixed," the blood-haired woman pleaded, acting as if she was hurt by the words spoken by the latter.

"Katarina, I will give you one hint, start doing things, not just talking what would you do. Actions speak louder than words, and for now, your words are just empty to me."

"What can I do?"

"I think that's exactly your punishment, you should think about how you can make up things for me, how to repay the betrayal, the cheat," the angry raven-haired girl said.

"Can we go out for a proper date?"

"Possibly, but not in this week," the cold-toned answer was provided.

"Why not?" Katarina asked curiously.

"Why am I not surprised that you don't remember about something I told you before," Akali sighed. "Have you already forgotten?"

"Forgotten about what?"

"I have a match day on Friday, and till then I have additional training with a team cause we suck," the raven-haired replied.

"Can I come to cheer for you, then?"

"I don't have a power to prevent you from doing so," Rogue responded. "So, do whatever you want."

"Ouch … that sounded pretty much hostile," Kat tried to joke.

"Cause it is. I am still mad at you, and if you think that showing up from time to time will fix it … I will just say that it won't," Akali said. "Do you want to add something more? If not, I need to take a quick shower, and then I have classes."

"Eee … yeah, I know … see you soon, I guess," the redhead mumbled.

"I hope that it won't be that soon," the young girl responded in a venomous tone.

With those word spoken, the teenager took her towel and went past the assistant without even looking at her once. For the raven-haired, the situation was finished. For as long as Katarina wouldn't repay her for what she had done, there wasn't even a glimpse of chance for them to be a couple.

Akali's POV (evening of the same day):


"I'm dying," the ninja groaned the moment she sat on the nearest chair in Evelynn's kitchen.

"Seems that your day was full of activities," the magenta-haired chuckled lightly. "Tell me what happened."

"A lot … just a lot," the young woman groaned once again. "I have another encounter with Katarina," the ninja started. "It went as expected, she thought that if she showed up, everything would be forgiven."

"What did she want?"

"The same as always, she wanted us to get along. She wanted me to forgive her, and let us be together," the teenager angry responded, there was a hint of regret in her voice.

"What did you say her?" Eve asked. She couldn't entirely manipulate her voice to entirely cover her curiosity, her worries.

"That … that I will give her a chance only if she changes," the raven-haired responded in the dullest voice. "Part of me … part of me doesn't want her back in my life," she added after a bit of hesitation.

"Darling, isn't it a bit rashly decision?" the lawyer asked against her own will.

"I don't know. Maybe, it is, maybe it isn't. As for now, I don't really care," the teenager groaned. "I wish I would be able to somehow relief that pressure, to forget."

"Maybe there is a way to achieve it," Eve started in a low voice.

"Hmm? What do you have in mind?"

"Remember the one day when we planned to go for some karaoke?"

"Yeah, it was a day that fucking dick-man showed up and fucked up our day," Akali responded angrily. As soon as the words left her mouth, she covered it. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say it that way, I didn't mean to course," the girl apologised.

"My, my, my … I knew you have a little more fire inside," the woman giggled. "With all honestly, it's fine. I still see that day sometimes in my dreams, or rather nightmares," Eve replied. "But … let's return to the main topic. How about we go for karaoke, maybe tomorrow?"

"I … I have a match day on Friday, but I really want to go with you," Rogue responded after a few seconds.

"So, it is settled?"

"Yeah, it is settled."

"Darling, I can promise you that you won't be disappointed," Evelynn added with a broad smile playing on her lips.

"I count on that," the raven-haired responded, flashing a small smile.

It was the moment the girl's mobile started to buzz. Akali reached for it, unlocked, and immediately put it on a table.

"Who was that?"

"Katarina," the ninja replied with a sigh. "I don't want to talk with her, at least not now."

"Do you have anything to learn for tomorrow?"

"Nah, I have a bit of free time, it seems."

"Movie night?"

"Gladly."

As soon as the raven-haired teenager heard the footsteps behind her, she sighed heavily. The girl waited a few more seconds before turning around to face her so-called "girlfriend". No one else would bother her in the cloakroom after the school football team's training. Akali didn't even have to turn around entirely to verify whether she was right or wrong. A few steps behind her, the blood-haired woman stood with a broad smile on her lips. The moment their eyes connected, the assistant winked.

"You look hot today," Katarina complimented in a purre-like manner.

"Thanks … I guess," Rogue replied in a dull voice. "What do you want, Kat?"

"Am I not allowed to see my super hot badass girlfriend from time to time?" the redhead asked. "We don't talk much recently, I wanted to check on you."

"Kat, you know precisely why we aren't talking much, so cut that shit-talk, please," Akali responded in a bit irritated voice.

"Babe …,"

"Don't "babe" me, you know what you did, you know what consequences are," the raven-haired girl interrupted. "So, I ask once more, what do you want?"

"Can't we just fix it?" Katarina asked shyly. "You know to make things as they used to be?"

"And how do you want to make them as they used to be?" the teenager asked in a cold tone. "Am I not allowed to be disappointed in you, after what you did? Is my anger not justified?"

"Babe, I know I did wrong, but I want it to be fixed," the blood-haired woman pleaded, acting as if she was hurt by the words spoken by the latter.

"Katarina, I will give you one hint, start doing things, not just talking what would you do. Actions speak louder than words, and for now, your words are just empty to me."

"What can I do?"

"I think that's exactly your punishment, you should think about how you can make up things for me, how to repay the betrayal, the cheat," the angry raven-haired girl said.

"Can we go out for a proper date?"

"Possibly, but not in this week," the cold-toned answer was provided.

"Why not?" Katarina asked curiously.

"Why am I not surprised that you don't remember about something I told you before," Akali sighed. "Have you already forgotten?"

"Forgotten about what?"

"I have a match day on Friday, and till then I have additional training with a team cause we suck," the raven-haired replied.

"Can I come to cheer for you, then?"

"I don't have a power to prevent you from doing so," Rogue responded. "So, do whatever you want."

"Ouch … that sounded pretty much hostile," Kat tried to joke.

"Cause it is. I am still mad at you, and if you think that showing up from time to time will fix it … I will just say that it won't," Akali said. "Do you want to add something more? If not, I need to take a quick shower, and then I have classes."

"Eee … yeah, I know … see you soon, I guess," the redhead mumbled.

"I hope that it won't be that soon," the young girl responded in a venomous tone.

With those word spoken, the teenager took her towel and went past the assistant without even looking at her once. For the raven-haired, the situation was finished. For as long as Katarina wouldn't repay her for what she had done, there wasn't even a glimpse of chance for them to be a couple.

Akali's POV (evening of the same day):

"I'm dying," the ninja groaned the moment she sat on the nearest chair in Evelynn's kitchen.

"Seems that your day was full of activities," the magenta-haired chuckled lightly. "Tell me what happened."

"A lot … just a lot," the young woman groaned once again. "I have another encounter with Katarina," the ninja started. "It went as expected, she thought that if she showed up, everything would be forgiven."

"What did she want?"

"The same as always, she wanted us to get along. She wanted me to forgive her, and let us be together," the teenager angry responded, there was a hint of regret in her voice.

"What did you say her?" Eve asked. She couldn't entirely manipulate her voice to entirely cover her curiosity, her worries.

"That … that I will give her a chance only if she changes," the raven-haired responded in the dullest voice. "Part of me … part of me doesn't want her back in my life," she added after a bit of hesitation.

"Darling, isn't it a bit rashly decision?" the lawyer asked against her own will.

"I don't know. Maybe, it is, maybe it isn't. As for now, I don't really care," the teenager groaned. "I wish I would be able to somehow relief that pressure, to forget."

"Maybe there is a way to achieve it," Eve started in a low voice.

"Hmm? What do you have in mind?"

"Remember the one day when we planned to go for some karaoke?"

"Yeah, it was a day that fucking dick-man showed up and fucked up our day," Akali responded angrily. As soon as the words left her mouth, she covered it. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say it that way, I didn't mean to course," the girl apologised.

"My, my, my … I knew you have a little more fire inside," the woman giggled. "With all honestly, it's fine. I still see that day sometimes in my dreams, or rather nightmares," Eve replied. "But … let's return to the main topic. How about we go for karaoke, maybe tomorrow?"

"I … I have a match day on Friday, but I really want to go with you," Rogue responded after a few seconds.

"So, it is settled?"

"Yeah, it is settled."

"Darling, I can promise you that you won't be disappointed," Evelynn added with a broad smile playing on her lips.

"I count on that," the raven-haired responded, flashing a small smile.

It was the moment the girl's mobile started to buzz. Akali reached for it, unlocked, and immediately put it on a table.

"Who was that?"

"Katarina," the ninja replied with a sigh. "I don't want to talk with her, at least not now."

"Do you have anything to learn for tomorrow?"

"Nah, I have a bit of free time, it seems."

"Movie night?"

"Gladly."
