They stumbled clumsily into Helena’s bedroom, giggling and laughing about their night at the club. Helping Ashlee to the bed, Helena said, “ Sit here while I go get you something comfortable to change into.“

Ashlee reached out and grabbed Helena’s wrist. “ Nonono. We’renotdonedancingyet. “ She slurred through an I-am-drunk smile.

“ You’re so adorable when you’re drunk. “ Helena laughed as Ashlee pulled her in.

She slides her hand into Helena’s, her gray eyes trained on Helena’s blue eyes, her elation pulling Helena into her orbit. As she started humming a tune, she leans her forehead until its brushing Helena’s. Without dropping her hand, Ashlee begins to dance, her hips, her arms in fluid motion. And through her hops haze, Helena was struck by how beautiful Ashlee is, even when she’s drunk.

“ I love you. “ She gently holds the hair on both sides of Helena’s face as she stopped dancing, leaning in to Helena.

“ I love you too. “ Helena responded, pressing her lips softly against Ashlee’s.

They shared a brief but passionate kiss. Pulling away, Helena giggled, “ Now that we’re done dancing, Miss Ashlee drunkhead, I’m going to get you something to change into. “

“ I’mnotdrunk. “ Ashlee slurred again.

“ Yes, you are. “ Helena laughed as she helped Ashlee change her shirt.

“ No I’m not. “ She murmured, kicking her pants off before collapsing unto the bed.

Helena smiled to herself as she changed into a tank top. She stood by the bedside, watching Ashlee for a moment before crawling into bed to turn in for the night.

The next morning, they woke up and had breakfast in bed. Feeding Helena with a spoonful of yogurt, she said amusingly, “ Do you take yogurt for breakfast everyday? You should, you know. It’s good for you. “

“ Yes Doctor Ralston. “ Helena laughed.

“ Fruits and vegs are good for you too. “ Ashlee added jokingly before humming a tune out loud.

Recognizing the tune that Ashlee was humming, Helena laughed, recalling the dance they had last night.

“ What’s so funny? “ Ashlee stopped humming, putting the bowl of yogurt aside.

“ What are you actually humming to? “ Helena giggled.

“ I don’t know. Just some tune that I made up in my head. “ She shrugged. “ So, can you tell me what’s so funny? “

“ Nothing. “

“ Oh, come on. Please tell me. “

“ You probably won’t remember any of it, since you were so drunk. “

“ Oh no. I did something really embarrassing, didn’t I? Was I singing some cheesy love song? “ Ashlee’s face reddens.

Helena laughed, “ No, you weren’t singing a song. “

Ashlee mouthed, thank god.

“ You were dancing though. “ Helena added teasingly.

“ Whaaat… That’s worse than singing. I’m so embarrassed. “ Ashlee groaned, covering her face with her hands.

“ It wasn’t that bad. “ Helena laughed, pulling Ashlee’s hands away. “ If it makes you feel better, I thought that you were adorable. “ Helena moved closer, kissing her on her lips.

“ Adorable, huh. “ She chuckled.

“ Yes darling. That’s one of the things that I love about you. “ Helena laughed.

“ Really? How sweet of you. “ Ashlee smiled.

“ I’ll tell you what I love about you. “ She grinned, “ I love how comfortable you make me feel, I love how understanding you are. I love your eyes, your lips, your scent, your gorgeous body and your incredibly sexy accent.“

“ In other words, I love you and everything about you. “ Ashlee conclude, leaning in to kiss Helena.

“ I love you and everything about you too. “ Helena responded just before their lips touch.

They kissed each other sensually and passionately, enjoying moment of it. Pulling away from the kiss, Ashlee leaned into Helena’s forehead, “ Let me show you how much I love you, okay. “

Helena nodded in response, inching herself closer for another kiss.

The two of them then spent the day at home, caressing and making love to each other as if tomorrow never comes.
