(I miss roping with yooou so I hope you don't mind!) No ONE had really seen Oli in quite sometime. No one had really even heard from her. Day by day, everyone gave up. But finally one day, Christi hears a familiar voice and knock at her door. "...Christi...? Are you home?" Oli sounds exhausted
(HELLO) Christina opened the door. “Oh my gosh, Oli, are you okay? Where have you been?” she pulled the other girl into a hug.
She laughs and hugs her closer. “Heh… yeah I’m alright… now that I got you.” She nestled her head into Christi’s shoulder letting out a relieved sigh. “I missed you…” she ignores the question about where she was.
Christina leads her inside and sits her down on the couch, content to cuddle with her for now. “I’ve miss you, love.”
She smiles as she cuddles up to Christi. “I am so sorry I was gone for so long… but I’m staying for a longer time…” she holds her hand and kisses it.
She smiles. “All I ask is that you sit with me for a while…”
“Of course! Anything!!” She laughs and kisses her forehead. She looks at christis hand. “You still wear your promise ring…? After I left for so long…?” Oli wears hers on a chain around her neck. She seems surprised
“Of course I do. When I look at it, I know you have the matching one and it makes me feel connected to you.”
She tears up a bit. “I thought everyone forgot about me… I was gone for so long… did anyone even care? I know not mich but you know her…”
She wiped her tears away. “I never forgot about you. And Mich missed you in her own twisted way.”
She smiles and kisses her. “I’m so sorry… if I tell you where I was… you can’t tell anyone okay?”
“You don’t have to tell me anything if you don’t want to.”
“No I want you to know…” she sighs. “There’s our counterparts, Desiree and Laurel right? Well I met another kind of counter part… and it wasn’t fun…”
Her eyebrows furrowed. “Another counterpart…?”
“More like… demons… you remember Oni? That really twisted version of me? She like kidnapped me and stuff?”
“Oni didn’t get you, did she?”
She looks at the ground? “ bingo. She’s a demon trying to replace me! I thought we locked her up for good! She must have got out.. and… there’s something worse…”
Christina pulls her into a hug. “You don’t have to say more if you don’t want to.”
She holds her tight. “T-There’s one of all of us… even you… they’re all psychotic… and they plan to replace us all…”
“Did mine do anything to you, Oli?”
She’s starting crying. She nods. “She looked just like you… except for her brown hair… she even sounded like you… they wouldn’t stop…” she ends her sentence early as she cries harder
Christina strokes her hair to try and calm her down. “Shhh, it’s okay. I’m here.”
“I was able to keep them away… but I think by October… they’ll be here… I have to stop them for good…”
“Every bad thing happens in October,” she grumbled. “You won’t be alone in your fight.”
She pulls back, tears rolling off her cheeks. “No! Babe I can’t let you do that! You’ll get hurt or worse… I can’t lose you…”
“If you think I’m letting you go through all this alone, you’re crazy. I can’t lose you either.”
“Then you don’t leave my side… deal?” She smiles
“Deal.”
“When October starts… we don’t know who we can trust… so… till it’s all over… I want to stay here… with you…” she blushes
“Stay as long as you like.”
“Then…. how about… we uh…. um… can I just….. geez this is hard… can I… move in…?” She sounds nervous
She smiled. “Of course you can, silly.”
“Good… I kinda… didn’t have anywhere else to go…” she laughs nervously. “Tomorrow I’ll head out and get a new bed for myself… I’ll just sleep on the couch…”
“If you don’t mind… my bed is big enough for two…”
Her whole face goes red. “Y-you mean… me? Sleeping with you! Yeah! Uh… yeah… sure… I was afraid to ask”
“It’s fine by me.”
She leans forward and kisses her deeply. “I love you… Christi…” she leans back blushing.
She kisses her forehead. “I love you too.”
She smiles. I’m gonna keep you safe Christi… I promise…“
“I’m sure, but sleep now. You look exhausted.”
She laughs and picks her up bridal style. She gets confident some times. “You look tired too love~”
“I guess I am.”
She walks into the bedroom and trips, accidentally throwing Christi to the bed and landing on her face by the footboard. She looks up. “You OKAY Christi!?”
Christina was doubled over in laughter. “I’m fine! Are you?”
She laughs sitting at the foot of the bed. “Yeah… just a bump… some things never change…”
“Get up here, you!”
She laughs and jumps on the bed, landing on her stomach. “HOLY crap this feels awesome!”
“I’m glad.”
“You know what would be better~ you in my arms!” She grabs Christi and holds her tight
She giggled. “I’m so glad you’re here.”
She yawns. "Me too..." she falls asleep still hugging Christi.
