[mckenzie-monroe]

Mckenzie let out a soft laugh as Lexi threw her arms around her. Even being nearly tackled by excitement felt perfect when it was Lexi. For a second, she just stood there, smiling into the moment as it truly sank in, this was real. Their place. Their next step. No more wishing for it. “Your stuff absolutely ends up everywhere,” she said first, because she couldn’t let that pass, though the warmth in her voice betrayed her teasing. Her gaze flicked around the apartment, already imagining traces of them in every room. Then she looked back at Lexi, expression softening completely. “Yeah,” she murmured, thumbs brushing gently against her skin. “I can believe it, because it’s you and me. We can do anything we put our minds too." She turned in her arms to face Lexi. “I want this more than anything,” she admitted quietly. “I want to wake up next to you every day, argue over who's turn it is to turn the lights off at night time , trip over your shoes in the hallway, all of it.” A grin tugged at her lips as she tucked a strand of hair behind Lexi’s ear. "I want to live with my girlfriend."

[lexigraham]

lexi was utterly excited. she'd felt happy before, of course she had, but it was different when it was mckenzie. mckenzie excited her in a way nobody else ever could, and lexi was pretty sure nobody would ever top that. as mckenzie once again pointed out how her things somehow ended up everywhere, she smirked. "oh, so you're not okay with undressing me whenever you want?" she nodded dramatically, pretending to be offended. "okay, okay. no more spontaneous make-out sessions on the couch, fine." she raised her hands in surrender. "we'll schedule our romantic time properly so my stuff doesn't end up all over the place," she joked. but as the conversation drifted back to how excited they both were, her smile softened. she couldn't wait for the little things. falling asleep beside her every night. waking up next to her every morning. sharing routines and lazy weekends and grocery runs. all of it. "you're pointing out how much of a mess i am a lot. are you sure you want this?" she teased, sliding her hands to mckenzie's hips and pulling her a little closer. "because i really, really want to live with my girlfriend. more than anything." leaning forward, she pressed a quick kiss to mckenzie's lips before grinning again. "i'm so ready to move our stuff in here. i can already picture our decorations everywhere. it's finally going to feel like ours."

[mckenzie-monroe]

McKenzie let out a soft breath through her nose, her fingers curling instinctively around Lexi’s hand when it found hers. The warmth grounded her, even as her gaze drifted around the apartment again, sunlight pooling across the hardwood floors, the way the space felt quieter than the others they'd already looked at. She hesitated, as she often did when decisions tried to pin her down. Her lips pressed together briefly before she glanced back at Lexi, a faint, almost sheepish smile forming. “Hey,” she murmured, giving her hand a small squeeze, tone gentle but edged with thought. “My taste is evolving, thank you very much.” There was a pause, just long enough to show she was actually considering it this time.Her eyes flicked toward the hallway, then back to Lexi. “I think,” she started, then stopped, exhaling a quiet laugh at herself. “God, why is this so hard?” McKenzie shifted her weight, shoulders relaxing as she leaned a little closer, lowering her voice like it made the admission easier. “I keep trying to picture us here. Not just visiting, like, actually living.” Her thumb brushed absentmindedly over Lexi’s knuckles. “Waking up, arguing over coffee, you leaving your stuff everywhere,” she added, a teasing note slipping in. A small tilt of her head, a quiet half smile. “This might actually be the one.”

[lexigraham]

apartment hunting was hard, not that she knew it firsthand, but she was definitely starting to hate it. lexi, though, still felt over the moon, moving in with mckenzie was the dream, she couldn’t wait to come home to her every day without worrying about goodbyes, it would be their place. "thank god it’s evolving," she chuckled, giving her hand a small squeeze, clearly teasing, "it started when you chose me, that’s when your taste improved," she winked. as mckenzie described picturing them there, waking up, coffee, mornings together, lexi huffed lightly. "hey, i don’t leave my stuff everywhere," she protested, glancing at her girlfriend. but the moment mckenzie decided, lexi’s smile lit up her whole face. she stepped in and wrapped her arms around her, excitement spilling over. "then this is the one," she said, kissing her quickly before pulling back just enough to look at her. "we’re moving in together… can you believe it?"

[lexigraham]

she didn’t remember exactly when the idea had been suggested, but she could only recall one of them mentioning it when they were breathless and naked in bed. now they were on the third possible apartment they were visiting. lexi didn’t want to say it, but this was the best one they’d seen so far. "i swear, if i see another ugly, outdated bathroom, i'm giving up," she promised, her hand reaching for mckenzie’s. "do we think this is the one? or are we gonna keep saying that about the last ones we've seen?" she joked, smirking as she looked at the brunette. "i'm not saying your taste is bad, but those houses were..." she teased. @mckenzie-monroe

[mckenzie-monroe]

McKenzie felt a soft thrill at how close Lexi was, the way her hands found her hips and held her gently. The change from their usual dynamic only made the moment feel lighter, warmer, like an adventure they were sharing together. She moved slowly, attuned to every subtle reaction Lexi gave. "I don't think I have ever saw you this quiet before." Lexi’s playful smirk made her heart lift. “Being a pillow princess right now suits you perfectly,” McKenzie said softly, tucking a loose strand of hair behind Lexi’s ear. “Just don't get too use to it." Every little breath, every flutter of her eyelashes, every quiet laugh made McKenzie feel even closer. When Lexi leaned into her, eyes half-closed, she leaned closer too, letting her words wrap around her gently. “You’re amazing,” she whispered, letting the warmth of her voice fill the space between them. McKenzie stayed present, holding the moment with care and attention, savoring the connection, the quiet trust, and the joy of just being together. “I’ve got you,” she murmured, a soft smile brushing her lips. She shifted gently against Lexi a couple of times, each movement slow and deliberate, savoring the closeness. She leaned closer again, moving against Lexi just enough to feel their warmth mingle, then tipped her own head back slightly, letting her eyes close for a heartbeat as she enjoyed the moment fully. "Ah, fuck, Lex."

[lexigraham]

her heart was racing, her breath uneven, she was a mess, mckenzie made her a mess, and she wasn’t worried about it; in fact, she had enjoyed every single word, every whisper, every movement that sent goosebumps trailing down her body, and then a wave crashed over her, pleasure, love, everything all at once, leaving lexi speechless for a second, something that didn’t happen often since she loved talking and was never good at staying quiet. she shifted, now laying on that stranger’s bed, looking at her girlfriend, her hand moving to brush a strand of her long dark hair behind her ear. "you look beautiful," she murmured, leaning in to press a soft kiss against her lips. "and i think i could get used to being the pillow princess," she joked, looking at her girlfriend, the most perfect person who had ever walked the earth, at least for lexi. she sighed, taking a deep breath. "i’m pretty sure the owners of this bed didn’t have as good a time as i just did," she chuckled, "and they definitely don’t have a pretty girl by their side like i do," she added with a soft laugh, leaning in to press a trail of light kisses along her skin before returning to her lips. "should we get dressed and go home? i don’t know about round two, but i feel like laying in your bed," she whispered, pressing a gentle kiss to mckenzie’s sweet spot, "how does that sound, baby?"

[mckenzie-monroe]

McKenzie’s breath hitched when Lexi said please, but this time she didn’t hesitate. The nervousness was still there, buzzing under her skin, yet she didn’t let it show. Instead, she smiled, slow, confident, like she knew exactly what she was doing, even if she was figuring it out as she went. “Look at you,” McKenzie murmured, her voice warm and teasing. “All quiet for me.” She tilted her head slightly, eyes flicking over Lexi’s face with clear appreciation. When Lexi said she didn’t want to recover, McKenzie let out a soft laugh, low and pleased. “Good,” she replied easily. “Because I don’t really want you thinking straight right now.” She leaned in close, close enough that Lexi could feel her breath, but she didn’t kiss her just yet. McKenzie wanted to savor it. “You trust me that much?” she asked, tone playful but sincere. “That’s dangerous. I'm usually the pillow princess.” Her hands stayed firm where she’d placed them, deliberate, confident. She brushed her nose lightly against Lexi’s, finally closing the distance just enough to make her point. “I’m not stopping,” McKenzie said softly, confidently. “Not when you’re looking at me like that.” And for someone who was new to all of this, McKenzie looked right at home, flirty, grounded, and clearly aware of the effect she was having. “You have no idea,” she murmured, tone soft but unmistakably heated, “how good you look when you’re like this for me.” She let the words sink in before adding, quieter still, “And I’m not done making you feel it.” McKenzie pulled back just enough to look at Lexi, eyes dark with confidence now, a faint smile playing on her lips. “Stay right there,” she said gently but firmly. “I want to see every reaction you make because of me."

[lexigraham]

she was normally the one on top, and she liked being able to see every angle of mckenzie’s face; it was one of the best views for lexi. but that party had made them change places, and if lexi was honest… she didn’t mind it. seeing mckenzie so sure, so ready, made her enjoy the moment even more, and she tried to take everything in. “you make me go quiet when you get into this sexy mood,” she confessed. she was telling the truth—she was enjoying mckenzie being on top. “i trust you,” she nodded. “the pillow princess knows how to make me shut up,” she chuckled, a playful smirk on her lips. “i’m a pillow princess for the night, and i love it,” she promised breathlessly. her hands moved to the brunette’s hips, grounding herself but also wanting her as close as possible, wanting to take in every sensation. her whole body buzzed, as if every inch of her skin were alive with nerve endings. “fuck, mckenzie,” she moaned loudly. “that’s so hot,” she pleaded, her eyes closing. “i’m close,” the blonde announced, her back arching, her eyes fighting to stay on mckenzie but willing to close just to surrender to the wave of heat. “fuck, baby.”

[bodhirapps]

Bodhi’s lips pulled into a grin at her banter, the corners of his mouth twitching with amusement as he watched Lexi’s eyes sparkle with mischief, her words flying with a charm and boldness that seemed effortless, and he couldn’t help but admire it. They were opposites in the most perfect way—she was loud and vibrant, a presence that filled the room with laughter and energy, and he was reserved, quietly cheeky, a smirk always lurking beneath the surface, finding humour in the spaces between words rather than in the spotlight of them. “I wish I could act like you. I wish I could just come out with whatever is playing on my mind. I envy that. I really do,” he admitted, his voice softer, tinged with an honesty he didn’t often offer, fingers curling around his glass as he sipped, feeling the cool liquid settle and grounding him in the moment. When Lexi mentioned that Mckenzie had taken care of her, he smiled behind the glass, the warmth in his chest spreading in a quiet way he rarely expressed. “You two are real cute together. I hope you and her last a very long time. It’s the least you deserve,” he confessed, genuine admiration in his tone, and raising his drink, he smiled widely, letting the glass catch the dim light as he added, “To you and living your best life possible,” before taking a sip, the gesture both celebratory and intimate, a small bridge of connection in their conversation. Yet even as he engaged, Bodhi couldn’t stop his mind from wandering to Kitty, the thought of her occupying the spaces between words, even when he was speaking, subtle yet persistent, a quiet ache beneath his cheeky exterior. “So,” he continued, leaning slightly forward, fingers tightening lightly on the glass, voice low and contemplative, “If you was in my situation, what would you be doing? Pretend you’re me and Mckenzie is Kitty,” he challenged gently, eyes flicking up to hers with that same playful curiosity.

[lexigraham]

they were opposites in the best way—lexi was loud, unapologetic about the space she took up, while he was quieter, more reserved, yet never once seemed bothered by her volume. that was what she liked most: she didn’t have to shrink around him. and she never tried to stretch him into something he wasn’t either. they just fit. at his words, she nodded thoughtfully. “everyone wants to be like this,” she said, gesturing vaguely to herself. “it’s a personality trait at this point. but if i could, i’d lend it to you for a day so you could just be loud and reckless.” she grinned. “or you could try it yourself. do whatever crosses your mind—no second thoughts. maybe you’d surprise yourself. fake it till you make it.” she took a sip of her drink, eyes still on him. when he mentioned her and mckenzie being cute, she beamed. “we are. and we’re in it for the long run. i’m not going back to hooking up with suburban moms from dating apps,” she shook her head dramatically. “my era of being an inexperienced lesbian craving older-woman validation? over.” a smug little smirk appeared. “i upgraded.” she lifted her cup toward him. “to you living a good life too.” as he leaned forward, she mirrored him instinctively, arms folding on the table, eyes glinting with playful challenge. “tempting, but my girlfriend’s ass is way juicier,” she shot back with a laugh. then she sobered slightly. “but seriously… what would i do?” she leaned back in her chair. “i was in love with my best friend and actually told her. now i’m dating her. that’s nothing like what you had with kitty.” she studied him for a second before shrugging. “if you keep thinking about her, just invite her over. what’s the worst that happens? she says no? fine. but if she says yes and you actually have a good time, maybe it quiets that constant replay in your head.” her tone softened. “you’re not over her. and you’re not really trying to be either, are you?”

[mckenzie-monroe]

McKenzie froze for half a second when Lexi went quiet—like she always did when she wasn’t sure what she was allowed to do next. Being on top of a woman still felt new, still felt like borrowed confidence she was trying not to drop. But the way Lexi looked at her, like she was something holy, made her breathe through it and stay. She laughed softly at the goddess comment, cheeks warm. “Okay, first of all,” she said, a little breathless, “if you keep looking at me like that, I’m gonna start believing you.” She shifted her hips without really meaning to, hands braced on either side of Lexi’s shoulders. The contact alone sent a thrill through her—too aware of her body, of how close they were. “And second,” she added, grin turning playful, flirty in a way she was just learning how to be, “I didn’t ruin anything. I enhanced it. There’s a difference.” When Lexi’s hands slid to her hips, McKenzie sucked in a breath, eyes dropping instinctively to Lexi’s mouth. At Lexi’s whispered confession, McKenzie’s smile softened, something more sincere slipping through the teasing. “I like that I do that to you,” she admitted. “I like knowing I make you feel undone.” A small pause, then, quieter: “No one’s ever reacted to me like this before.” When Lexi asked for a kiss, McKenzie didn’t hesitate. “Yeah,” she said, leaning down slowly, deliberately, letting the moment stretch. “You can have as many as you want.” Before closing the distance completely, she brushed her nose against Lexi’s and whispered, “Just don’t blame me if your brain never recovers.” McKenzie didn’t hesitate this time. She kissed Lexi again, confident, lingering, like she was finally settling into the feeling instead of questioning it. McKenzie caught Lexi's hands smoothly, lifting them and holding them in place above her head, not forceful, just sure. Like she’d decided this was where they belonged. She pulled back just enough to look down at her, eyes bright, playful. She shifted closer, grounding herself there, clearly enjoying the reaction she got. Another kiss followed—slow, deliberate—before she smiled against Lexi’s lips. "Oh, I can definitely feel the mess I'm making of you. How close are you?"

[lexigraham]

lexi wasn’t someone quiet; in fact, she was loud, spoke her mind, and didn’t care much about what others thought. but seeing mckenzie on top of her, so confident—or at least trying to be—telling her what to do, was making her go silent. she was enjoying every second of it. “believe it, you look like one right now,” lexi assured, a smile on her lips. as mckenzie shifted over her, a moan escaped from lexi’s lips. as mckenzie flirted, lexi thought she was going to lose her mind; it didn’t feel real. “you’re the only person who’d make me a pillow princess,” lexi mused breathlessly, looking at her girlfriend. at her quiet confession, lexi smiled. “you can make me react like this all the time you want, kenzie,” she nodded. it was crazy to see lexi that quiet, just overwhelmed in the best way by the view and the feeling of mckenzie pressed against her. as mckenzie leaned closer to kiss her, lexi felt her heart pounding in her chest. “i don’t want to recover,” she shook her head, her hands moving to mckenzie’s waist. she was surprised when mckenzie picked up both of her hands and moved them over her head so smoothly that it made lexi moan against her lips. lexi looked at mckenzie in awe, lips lightly parted. “really close,” she said softly. “please, mckenzie, keep going.”

[mckenzie-monroe]

If there was one thing that always struck McKenzie, it was the way Lexi looked at her. That look—warm, proud, almost glowing—made something flutter in her chest every time. She loved their soft, gentle moments, but seeing Lexi so captivated by her, so openly admiring, reminded McKenzie how deeply they cared for each other. When McKenzie moved closer, straddling and climbing on top of Lexi, she caught the hint of surprise in her girlfriend’s eyes—surprise. Lexi knew her well enough to expect it, and the amusement there made McKenzie smile. Hearing the soft sound Lexi let out in response only deepened that warmth in her chest. She brushed a thumb gently along Lexi’s cheek. “Do I? Now you know how I feel every time you've been the one that's in this position." McKenzie felt it—a mixture of affection and trust. “Hey… you can,” she whispered, her tone gentle and reassuring. “You know I trust you.” Her voice stayed soft, steady, full of the affection she didn’t always say out loud. “Just… be with me, okay? She reached for Lexi’s hand, her fingers brushing over it before she gently guided it upward. McKenzie placed Lexi’s hand on her waist, holding it there for a moment so Lexi could feel the quiet yes in her touch. “Lexi, you have my permission. Always.” Her words came out steady, warm, honest. “You don’t need to ask. I feel safe with you.” McKenzie adjusted her position, suggestively, a quick deliberate shift—close enough that Lexi could feel how present she was, how tuned in to her she was being. It wasn’t accidental, and it wasn’t innocent — it was deliberate. Purposeful. A move meant to change the mood, to let Lexi feel the spark she was intentionally creating. “See what you do to me?”

[lexigraham]

lexi had been with many people; she wasn’t ashamed of the number of women she had been with, but mckenzie was sparking things no one had ever made her feel. it was impossible to think her heart could race like that when she had done this before, but the way mckenzie looked at her, those subtle movements, straddling on top of her, made lexi—someone who was always so vocal—go silent, just admiring her pretty girlfriend. she would stay under her forever if that were an option. “you look like a goddess,” she promised, a smile on her lips. “i know, but you look so ethereal right now i wanted to make sure i could ruin the picture,” she chuckled softly, a playful smirk on her lips. her hands moved to mckenzie’s hips, just wanting some kind of contact with her body, and that alone made her smile. she couldn’t believe everything felt so perfect. as mckenzie shifted on top of her, lexi felt her heart skip a beat, her breath catching for a second; under her girlfriend, she was a mess. “i do see it—you look amazing, so hot i could just cum at the thought of you,” lexi murmured, “but honestly, you should see the mess you made of me,” she whispered, her hands moving down her waist to squeeze mckenzie’s ass. “you make me crazy, kenzie, in the best ways possible,” she promised. “now can i get one of those kisses from you that make my brain just melt?”

[bodhirapps]

Bodhi leaned on his hand, elbow braced against the surface in front of him as he watched his best friend with a quiet attentiveness that came naturally to him, his posture relaxed and unassuming, as if he were most comfortable existing slightly to the side of things rather than at their centre. “I’m not bothered about sounding boring. I am a boring person in comparison to you,” he grinned, the expression easy and self-aware, fitting for someone who had always kept himself to himself, never flashy, never one to show off, simply not the kind of person he had grown up to be. He listened more than he spoke, content in that role, and when she mentioned bragging about her girlfriend before inevitably circling back to talking about Kitty, his lips curled into a small, fond smile that softened his features, a quiet sign of how genuinely happy he was for her. “There are some open apartments near where I live. They are fairly cheap compared to other places,” he admitted, voice steady and practical. “You should look into those ones. See if that’d be good for the two of you until you want an actual house.” There was no envy in him, only warmth, because Bodhi was truly happy for Lexi, glad that things were finally going her way, and the sincerity in his gaze lingered as he added, “I’m glad McKenzie is taking care of you.”

[lexigraham]

lexi loved talking, that much was obvious; she had that charm, that way of speaking that could either make you want to listen to her or roll your eyes at her, she was just pure and effortlessly confident. “that’s the gay charm, my friend,” she tossed her hair back, “maybe if you tried it you’d be less boring,” she teased, a smirk on her lips. she was joking, but that was how she joked. they were polar opposites, she liked the attention, she liked shining and being open, while he was closed off, keeping things to himself, self-aware. but even if they were nothing alike, the quiet guy in front of her was her best friend, the person she confided in besides her girlfriend and her older sister, her platonic soulmate if anyone wanted to get cheesy, and she was incredibly grateful to have him. “i feel like that would be a good option, maybe we should,” she nodded, “i’m sure she wouldn’t let me pay more than her, so we’ll find something that suits our budget.” lexi came from a rich family, it wasn’t something she shouted to the world, but for her girlfriend she wouldn’t mind spending more money, especially when she was utterly in love with mckenzie. “mckenzie does take care of me,” she said, knowing that wasn’t the intention behind his words but smirking anyway, “you can’t imagine how well she takes care of me,” she winked, her smirk growing before she burst out laughing, loud enough to make a couple of people turn and look at her. “i’d say sorry, but you know i wouldn’t mean it,” she smiled, taking a sip of her drink. “she’s just easy to love, her ex was a fucking asshole, and i just try to love her the way she deserves,” she added more softly. “i guess that’s what people do when they love someone, you did it too.”

[mckenzie-monroe]

Mckenzie’s eyes held Lexi’s as she stepped closer, that quiet confidence of hers never wavering. There was a faint smile at the corner of her mouth — not arrogance, just the kind of control that came naturally to her. She could feel the pull between them, electric and certain, but she didn’t rush it; she liked the weight of the moment, the way Lexi’s breath hitched just from the space narrowing between them. Mckenzie’s smile deepened slightly, a glint of satisfaction flickering in her gaze. She turned to close the door without a word, slow and purposeful, the soft click echoing in the silence that followed. No interruptions — exactly how she wanted it. Her steps back toward Lexi were unhurried, each one deliberate. She caught the look in Lexi’s eyes and felt the tension hum between them. “Was I?” she murmured in response, voice smooth, threaded with amusement when Lexi confessed she’d been driving her crazy just by talking. “Good.” When Lexi leaned back and whispered her challenge, Mckenzie tilted her head, that same teasing smirk returning as she removed her bottoms too. She shifted, straddling Lexi at a sideways angle and caught Lexi’s hands before they could wander away. Mckenzie pinned them gently against the sheets, fingers lacing through hers. Her hips against the other girl's - teasing. A breathy pretty moan escaped from out of her lips the instant the two made contact. "Lexi."

[lexigraham]

if there was something lexi loved, it was seeing mckenzie feeling so confident and in control; she loved seeing that smile on her face. it was a turn-on seeing her girlfriend so comfortable in that situation. she loved those soft moments with her girl, but seeing her do whatever was on her mind was what really reminded her how proud she was of her and how much she loved her. "you know you were, baby," she smirked, biting down on her lower lip. it was so captivating seeing the brunette like that. she would love being like that forever. she looked at the girl as she removed her bottoms and straddled over her; she was surprised—before she could even think about it, the girl had already pinned her hand against the sheets. she knew her well enough to know that was exactly what lexi was going to do, and that amused her. at her moan, lexi smiled. "you look so pretty on top of me, baby," she whispered. "please let me touch you, please" she whispered.

[bodhirapps]

Bodhi raised an eyebrow when Lexi called him boring, the corners of his mouth twitching like he was half-amused, half-offended, but mostly unbothered. “I’m not in a rush to get back into a relationship, Lex,” he said calmly, his tone grounded, thoughtful rather than defensive. “It’s nice finding myself a little. It’s nice coming home and just sorting the dog out.” The words hung in the air with quiet honesty—he did miss being in a relationship, but he wasn’t in pieces without one. He was Bodhi first, always had been, and he was finally starting to remember what that felt like. When Lexi jokingly brought up printing business cards to help him date more brunettes, he gently wagged a finger at her, expression wry. “Don’t you dare. I know you’d actually try and do something like that,” he said, his voice warm with familiar affection. He glanced at her then, his blonde best friend who’d always been a bit of a whirlwind in his life, and gave her a small, appreciative smile. “It’s nice hanging out with her again. It fills the void that was there between us. We’re not rushing into anything. We’re just taking moments as they come.” He shrugged, almost like he didn’t want to admit how much it actually meant to him. Then, with a quick pivot, as if the subject was growing too close for comfort, he shifted the spotlight. “Can we talk about your relationship and not mine?” he asked, a teasing note in his voice before softening again. “How’s your girl?”

[lexigraham]

lexi rolled her eyes at her best friend. "that's all the single people say, time to find myself, you sound so much like a man," she teased, a smirk on her lips. "just sorting the dog out? that sounds lonely too, don’t mind me telling you how sad your day is, right?" she kept teasing. she loved bodhi, and she was just messing with him — if he needed time to heal and figure things out, she got it, but her teasing self would never say that out loud. "of course i’d do it, i’m sure mckenzie would help me make those look amazing," she laughed, another smirk tugging at her lips. they were so different, but she loved bodhi; even she needed someone calmer sometimes, and he’d always been there. as bodhi started talking about kitty, lexi leaned back, watching him with a small smile. "of course it fills that void, you didn’t have her and now you do," she nodded. "okay, just remember how hurt you were last time, don’t let it happen again — it was hard enough then," she said softly. "after i brag about my girlfriend, we’ll go back to kitty," she added. "mckenzie’s great, we’re starting to look for a place of our own. i’m kind of tired of inviting her over to my parents’ place, so yeah, we need to find something."

[mckenzie-monroe]

McKenzie didn’t just move—she owned the space around her, each step deliberate, her presence swallowing up the room. Her eyes lingered on Lexi, unwavering, full of that confident spark that made her impossible to resist. She stood tall in front of her girlfriend, tilting her head down slightly, lips curving into a knowing smile. With a slow, commanding grace, she placed her hand against Lexi’s shoulder, easing her back onto the mattress as though it had been her idea all along. McKenzie leaned down, close enough that Lexi could feel her breath ghosting along her skin. “And you’re going to do exactly what I say, aren’t you?” The question wasn’t really a question—it was a statement dressed up as one, confident and assured, a reminder that McKenzie wasn’t asking. She was claiming. She glanced over her shoulder, sharp and instinctive, toward the door. For the briefest second, her hold on Lexi loosened, though not in doubt—only in certainty of what she wanted next. “Not a chance I’m letting anyone interrupt this,” she muttered, her tone decisive. In one fluid movement she straightened, her stride quick and unapologetic as she crossed the room. The metallic click of the lock echoed like a promise, sealing them away from the rest of the world. Then she was back—fast, focused, almost eager—as she closed the distance between them again. Her smirk returned, softer now but no less commanding. McKenzie’s hands found Lexi’s body immediately, tugging at her clothes with a sense of urgency that spoke louder than words. Fingers slipped beneath fabric, testing, pulling, claiming each piece as hers to take away. “Where were we?” she teased, her voice low as her eyes trailed over Lexi, drinking in every detail like she had all the time in the world—even as her hands said otherwise. “Now,” McKenzie purred, standing over her with that air of authority that made Lexi’s breath catch, “let’s get you how I want you. Lie back. Leg's apart."

[lexigraham]

lexi could have stayed there staring at mckenzie for hours; the way she moved, the quiet confidence she carried, it was intoxicating in the best way. there was something about her presence that filled the room, something warm that settled deep inside lexi. when mckenzie stepped closer, lexi smiled, ready to pull her in, but the other woman had her own rhythm, her own kind of control. “yes,” lexi breathed in reply, certain that mckenzie could have asked her anything and she would have said the same. the air between them pulsed with tension, and when mckenzie turned to close the door, a slow smirk found its way to lexi’s lips — no interruptions now. as she walked back, her gaze never left lexi, and that look alone was enough to make lexi’s heart race. “you were driving me crazy just by talking like that,” she murmured, her voice low and breathless. when mckenzie told her what she wanted, lexi didn’t hesitate; she leaned back against the sheets, every movement deliberate, the air thick with anticipation. “more?” she asked softly, a challenge and an invitation all at once.

[bodhirapps]

Bodhi wasn’t feeling onion rings at all, but that didn’t stop him from happily adding them to the order for Lexi’s sake, his expression unreadable except for the small smile tugging at the corner of his lips. “You aren’t my type. I don’t like blondes,” he teased, reaching out to gently mess with her hair before tapping the purchase button on the app, their food and drinks now confirmed. He opted to pay with Apple Pay, letting the cash come straight out without a second thought, just as Lexi reacted to his casual mention of his ex-girlfriend. “It’s not about moving on,” Bodhi said after a brief pause, his voice quieter, more thoughtful. “We run into each other and all the feelings come flooding back.” His honesty came without shame, like it was just a truth he’d made peace with. “It’s not like we’ve kissed or cuddled. We just talk, and it makes me fall in love with her all over again.” He glanced at Lexi, testing her reaction, but his laugh broke the tension when she joked about finding him a brunette girlfriend. “You know I don’t like a lot of your other friends. Don’t you dare try and put them and I together,” he grinned, rolling his eyes playfully. “Kitty and I really like each other’s company,” he added more seriously, the admission hanging in the air for a beat. “It’s not a bad thing, hanging out with your ex, you know.”

at his words lexi looked at him. "i'm glad i'm not, i would break your heart, i'm happy with my girlfriend," she mused, a smirk on her lips. she was about to add something when he reached out to mess with her hair. "you're a fucking asshole, you're going to regret it," she muttered, shooting him a bitter look, "not now, but when you go bald you’ll remember tonight, i'll pay an etsy witch to make it happen sooner," she joked, smoothing her hair back down. as he tried to justify how he ended up seeing his ex again, lexi rolled her eyes. "if you were together and kissed, i’d say go bodhi, at least you had some fun, but instead you just keep reminding me how boring you are," she teased. "i wouldn’t try to set you up with one of my friends, i’d look outside that, maybe go to a library and convince someone, or i could make little business cards that work like tinder and hand them out to cute brunettes so they’ll call you," she mused, "that’s actually a great idea," she joked. but as he got serious, she crossed her arms over her chest and leaned back. "it’s not a bad thing, you’re right, the bad thing is you said you’re falling for her again, and let me remind you—you broke up," she pointed out, "you’re going to get hurt again, bodhi."

Bodhi playfully rolled his eyes, a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth when Lexi accused him of having no taste. “I have great taste. Taste is one thing that I do have,” he shot back with a laugh. The brunette watched her with an amused expression as she scrolled through his phone. Settling into his usual habits, Bodhi opted for the safe choice of a beer and fries, knowing full well what the cooks in this particular kitchen were like—he didn’t trust them not to burn anything else on the menu. “I’m not flirting with you, cheeky sod,” he teased after a beat, eyes glinting with mischief. “You aren’t my type either. I like dark-haired girls. I’d prefer your girlfriend over you.” The playful jab landed easily between them, familiar and light. But when she shifted gears and asked how he’d been, Bodhi’s smile softened into something more genuine. “I’m doing okay! I’ve been cleaning up my grandma’s place,” he said with a shrug, his voice warm with a mix of pride and weariness. “I saw Kitty the other day. She helped me out.” He paused for a second, scratching the back of his neck before glancing up with a sheepish chuckle. “Is it weird to be strung up on my ex?”

[lexigraham]

lexi’s eyebrows shot up, the look she gave him screaming louder than any words could’ve. “if you think so, sure,” she said, shaking her head before going back to scrolling through the menu. “i feel like it’s an onion rings kind of night,” she mused, already tasting the crunch in her head, “and a beer. the most bitter one they’ve got.” her lips curved into a grin. “everyone flirts with me, why wouldn’t you?” she teased, eyes flicking up at him for a beat before returning to her phone. “just don’t forget, i’m in love with my girlfriend, rapp.” the smirk tugged at her lips, enjoying pushing his buttons. when he started describing his type, lexi’s brow arched higher. she knew exactly who he was talking about. “leave my girlfriend out of this, thanks,” she chuckled, shaking her head. “i told you,” she reminded him, “i could pay for someone to clean that up for you.” she wasn’t joking either—her family had the money and she would’ve written the check without a second thought. but when he mentioned his ex, her jaw dropped. “your ex? you asked your ex for help?” her tone was all shock and dramatics. “she’s hot, i’ll give you that—but bodhi,” she dragged out his name like she couldn’t believe him, “can’t you just move on?” leaning closer, she gave him a pleading look, though her smile betrayed her amusement. “i’ll get you a brunette girlfriend,” she teased, poking at his arm. “why do you keep beating around the bush?”

McKenzie's eyes darkened with lust, her gaze roaming over Lexi. She stepped closer, her hips swaying in a rhythm that was all her own. When Lexi grinned and sat on the edge of the bed, that smug little smirk curling her lips as she offered herself up, Mckenzie tilted her head, eyes narrowing with playful challenge. “Oh, are you now?” she murmured, voice low and edged with tease, taking slow steps closer until she was standing between Lexi’s knees. She let her fingers brush along Lexi’s jaw, deliberate and unhurried, watching the way her girlfriend reacted to even the smallest touch. Mckenzie loved that—loved the way Lexi could talk all bold, only to get undone by the softest graze of her hand. “You talk so much,” she smirked again, leaning down until their breaths mingled. “But let’s see if you’re as good at listening.” Without another word, she pressed forward, palms braced against Lexi’s shoulders as she gave one firm push. Mckenzie leaned over her, slow and deliberate, planting her hand beside Lexi’s head so she was caged in. “Mine,” she murmured, the word roughened by the edge of possession, her lips brushing so close to Lexi’s ear that it sent a shiver down her spine. She didn’t need to raise her voice—her control was felt in the weight of her body pinning Lexi down, in the certainty of every movement. “Now,” she whispered, lips hovering just above Lexi’s, “be a good girl… and tell me you’re mine. Tell me you’ll do whatever I want.” She dragged her hand down Lexi’s body, not rushing, savoring the way every touch made her shudder.

lexi loved having some kind of control; it didn’t have to be over her, but she loved how they could simply switch, and there she had her, doing exactly as she was told. she sat on the edge of the stranger’s bed, not caring—her eyes were on her girlfriend as she walked closer until she stood right in front of her, looking at lexi as if she’d been heaven-sent, which to lexi she was. when the other told her she’d walked too much, lexi raised an eyebrow—she was so into that firm mckenzie, so ready to do whatever she asked. she could be a good listener when she had a reason, and her girlfriend speaking to her like that was a very good reason. as mckenzie pushed her down onto the mattress, lexi’s breath hitched; her eyes closed as mckenzie whispered that she was hers by the shell of her ear, and lexi melted against her. at her demand, mckenzie didn’t hesitate. “i’m yours and i’ll do whatever you want,” she promised, her hands settling on lexi’s hips, wanting to feel her.

Bodhi kept glancing at his watch, the subtle tick of each second sharpening his impatience, a tell-tale sign of how meticulously he lived by the clock, every minute scheduled and accounted for, while his best friend, Lexi, was famously the opposite—chaotic, unpredictable, and always late. Despite his usual exasperation, his chest lifted and a grin spread across his face the moment he spotted her weaving through the restaurant, and he quickly budged up in the booth to make room. Handing the menu across to the blonde, he chuckled, shaking his head with amused affection. “They serve a whole lot more than fries here, the fries are just the only good thing that taste good,” he laughed, his voice carrying a warm, teasing tone. Scanning the QR code on the table, he passed his phone over to Lexi, tilting his head with a grin. “Pick what you want. It’s on me,” he said, the gesture casual but full of genuine care, his eyes lighting up as he waited to see what she would choose.

[lexigraham]

if lexi was honest she had actually tried to be on time, but of course she’d failed miserably, and she was definitely blaming it on mckenzie—her girlfriend had every right to look that good, but distracting her when she’d said she was meeting her best friend? yeah, that was all mckenzie’s ass’s fault. sliding into the booth, her cheeky smile was already in place as bodhi handed her the menu. “you know what? i don’t trust your taste, i won’t believe you until i try something else,” she teased with a wink, snatching his phone with ease as he passed it over and scanning the options herself. “what a gentleman, but you remember i’m into women, right?” she joked, already letting her mind wander with an idea she decided to sit on for now. leaning back, her grin only widened as her gaze flicked up to him, a wicked glint in her eyes. “so… how have you been, bodhi?”

[lexigraham]

lexi walked into the bar like she owned the place—like she always did. she’d spent countless moments there, but tonight she’d begged him to meet her at a time he wasn’t working. of course, she was late, she always was, but the wide grin on her face said she didn’t care one bit. the second she spotted him, her smile grew even wider. “hey, girl,” she greeted, sliding onto the seat beside him like it was hers. “you knew i was gonna be late, you could’ve ordered already,” she teased, leaning in playfully. “i wanted to ask you things, but i figure it’s only fair to get you drunk first. do they even have food here that isn’t just fries?” @bodhi-rapp
