         :･ﾟ✧ “LOOK, I KNOW WE GOT OFF ON THE WRONG FOOT, WHAT WITH YOU HOOKING UP with my boyfriend and stealing, then returning my room and all, but we’re going to be sisters, so we need to sweep that under the rug and get to know each other, so how about a manicure and pedicure. My treat.”

Avery's smile never falters as their lips move together. Her fingertips dance down the curve of Zelda's waist almost like she's trying to commit every inch of her to memory. Then her hands settle dangerously low on her back, any thoughts of subtlety went out the window long ago. "Can I let you in on a little secret?" Avery smirks, her lips brushing against Zelda's with every word. "We could have done that like day one," she laughs. "Secret number two is I really want to grab the snacks we ditched in the living room, but I'm way too comfortable here."

shuffled: if it makes you happy by michael cera palin 

Avery lived for moments like this with the other.  Where conversations that start out lighthearted dip beneath the surface and before either of them know it they’re spilling their guts.  Tonight’s topic was the ever elusive reasoning on why she was still single and why things haven’t worked out with any of her past girlfriends.  “I think I like to get a little too stoned.  Also, I’m not the kind of girl you’d bring home.”

[ GRAPPLE ] sender manages to pin receiver while play-wrestling

Avery’s back hits the pillows with a surprised ooft as her bright green eyes take on a slightly darker shade.  She was thrown by the other’s strength.  The swimmer was quite toned herself so it was no tiny feat to pin her in such a way.  She looks up at her with a toothy grin,  “I think the ref would call it about right there,” she chuckles wrapping her legs around the other to keep them close.  “--but I’m down for a rematch.”

Avery had always been a glutton for punishment, so it should really be no surprise when her new girlfriend started bringing her best friend around Avery’s eyes started to wander.  It was innocent at first-- just stealing glances when she was sure nobody else was looking.  What changed it all was when Avery realized the other was looking back.  From there it was supposed to be just a one time thing: a mistake in the form of a sloppy drunken kiss after a far too crowded house party.  Except that was months ago and they had made a barrage of mistakes in the meantime.  

“I should really go,” she murmured between kisses in the other’s bed.  “I’m supposed to be at my parents house this weekend.  What if she stops by?”

There’s a coy smile on her face as Avery carefully removes herself from the couch to lay on the ground next to the other.  It was another successful night of keeping their budding relationship under wraps.  It was just easier this way, to figure out their feelings on their own terms without a dozen questions from their friends.  “It’s just me,” she coos, trying not to wake the handful of others sleeping on the surrounding furniture.  “You looked too comfortable down here I just had to ruin it,” she whispers inviting herself into their other’s space.

I remember when we we're gambling to win everybody else said better luck next time. I don't wanna bend, let the bad girls bend.  I just wanna be your friend.  Is it ever gonna be enough? // gold guns girls by metric 

The pair had been through hell and back together there was no denying that much.  There was also no denying that they couldn’t be any worse for each other-- bad influences was putting it lightly.  Except Avery had some of the best times of her life with them.  Walking away was one of the hardest thing she’s ever done and whether she was caught between relief or regret depended on the day.  Being thrown back into each other’s lives felt like whiplash, but it just made Avery realize how much she truly missed the other.

“I want to be your friend.  Is that ever going to be enough?”

new york isn't new york without you, love // new york by st. vincent 

It seemed like the visits between New York and New Haven were happening more and more frequently.  Yet it seemed like Avery missed Zelda more than ever.  The old school sleepovers as they laid tangled together reciting every word of all the romantic comedies that filled their youth just wasn’t enough.  Eventually Avery would need to head back into the city and head back into the city.  A city that just wasn’t the same without her best friend-- who she could no longer deny she was very much in love with.  

Avery rolls over in Zelda’s bed, this time opting to stay the night and leave early enough to make it back to campus in time for her late afternoon class.  “New York isn’t New York without you, you know?  Sometimes I think you’re the only one in the city who would really handle me,” the words are punctuated with a chuckle with it was nothing but the truth.
