At the mention of their boyfriend, she pressed a hand to her chest in mock surprise. âShy? Me?â she asked, leaning closer with playful disbelief. âPlease. I was trying to be classy for at least five minutes.â Her eyes flicked with amusement. âClearly that was just wasted effort.â When Scarlet listed off her fantasy so boldly, Lennon bit back another laugh, cheeks warming just enough to be noticeable. âYou are outrageously hot,â she murmured, voice lower now, equal parts entertained and impressed. âAnd dangerously confident for someone standing this close to me." As Scarlet brushed past her, Lennon glanced down at the touch to her lower back, then followed her toward the fridge at an unhurried pace. She leaned against the counter beside her, shoulder nearly brushing hers. âPancakes with cream and fruit?â she repeated, eyes dragging over Scarlet with exaggerated consideration. Lennonâs laugh came soft as she leaned against the counter, eyes dropping briefly to everything Scarlet was pulling from the fridge before lifting back to her. âYes,â she said easily, smile spreading across her lips. âVery much yes to the pancakes, the cream, the fruit, all of it.â She stepped a little closer, playful energy still dancing in her gaze. âHonestly, you had me at pancakes. The rest was just showing off.â Her fingers tapped lightly against the counter beside Scarletâs hand. âNeed any help? And are we gonna serve some upstairs to Presley too?â she asked softly, tilting her head toward the room with a cute little smile. âHe looks like he could do with an energy boost. I think I wore him out a little too much this morning."
scarlet had never seen lennon's shy side. honestly, she wasn't convinced her girlfriend was even capable of being shy. âbeing classy for five whole minutes?â the redhead teased, a playful smirk tugging at her lips. âthat sounds like a real challenge for you.â as the blonde flirted with her, scarlet couldn't help smiling. âi'm hot and i know it,â she replied with a wink. âwhich makes me a double... maybe even a triple threat.â she laughed. âalthough the truly dangerous part is how hot you are... and how jealous i am that i missed the morning wrestling match.â she was only joking. whether her partners had their fun with her or without her, she was perfectly happy as long as they were happy. determined to focus on breakfast, scarlet reached for the ingredients, but lennon clearly had other plans, leaning against the counter and making herself a very welcome distraction. with how affectionate she was, scarlet never stood much of a chance. âi knew i had you the second i mentioned pancakes,â she grinned. âi was just trying to build a little suspense.â when lennon proudly declared she'd already worn their boyfriend out, scarlet burst into laughter. âyou can sit up on the counter looking all sweet and innocent while i do the hard work, babygirl,â she promised, leaning in to steal a lingering kiss from her lips before turning back to the mixing bowl. she started whisking the pancake batter together, glancing over her shoulder with a teasing smile. âi've got a feeling you'd much rather have whipped cream straight off our boyfriend's abs... am i wrong?â she asked, sticking her tongue out playfully before going back to mixing the batter.
