“Shh,” Rachel had shush so many times, and somehow it had became a habit.
When Iza cries, Rachel automatically goes to comfort her and tell her everything’s okay. Sometimes, when they’re far apart, Rachel did ran to her all the way.
Not that it didn’t bother her tired legs, or that she had stay up late before coming home, their home.
“Everything’s okay, okay? Iza, Iza baby, I’m here, I’m here.”
She wasn’t sure but these words had, and still always comfort Iza.
Somehow it works and Rachel decided it had became a sort of route, one she didn’t mind just as long as she tell Iza that everything’s fine.
She had been trying to focus on Skype call, trying to see Iza across the world through a small rather screen of her terrible laptop. It wasn’t bad because she can’t wait to see her pretty face again after two months.
“I’m sorry that you have to live with a roommate of yours who teased you highly and pun you once in a while for two months straight.”
Her girlfriend’s voice along with a small chuckle echoes through the speaker and the young student soon-to-be dancer roll her eyes.
“You had to believe me, he keep slipping these puns ever since you left for a internship program!”
“Come on, I know you tolerate his puns and teases about us all the time!” Iza laughs, putting her chin on her hand, watching the blonde rolling her eyes, “Beside you had done tolerating my teasing, and you knew it.”
Rachel turned red when she give a wink, and just shook her head with a laugh. Gods, they had done so many things when they were together, anywhere and in her bedroom here. Speaking of her bedroom...
“But I miss you so much, and I can’t wait to see you, hold your hand to my bed and to able to shut my roommate up about puns afterward.” Rachel sighed.
“Just be tolerable, my love,” Iza smiles and Rachel smiled back.
“Hey Rachel! Friend Fries is served!” A voice outside her bedroom shout.
“Friend Fries? I haven’t heard that in a while, well good luck.”
“Iza...”
“Come on, just because I made a promise to wake up at....5am to see you, go on, my love.”
“Right...” Rachel can’t help not to log out and said, “But be right back. I don’t want to forget your pretty face after two months, you know.”
Iza watched her stand up with a smile. The blonde walk to the door, and when she opened it, she screamed before she closed the door.
There were slience and Iza need to take a shower now she was awake and have to meet up with---
“Rino, that’s not the time to sauce it up! Beside---W-water you doing with that!?” Iza a raise a brow and chuckle at the shout. Did Rachel...She thought of Rachel everyday and complaining how she hate puns from her roommate.
Now she wonder if that influence must had gotten her.
She make a mental note to herself that when she get home at the end of the program, she would tease her to pun too.
Modern AU like real life modern universe like us! Also, dedicated to that special day that just happened hours ago, hahaha! Also Blushing Awkwards awaits! Also features Friend Fries bit of moments in the beginning and mentions of other characters :P
“Rino, care to tell me why you’re calling me so damn in the early morning?” Rachel ran her fingers through her messy hair when she held her iphone carefully into her ears alone in the hotel room and a loud snore behind her, “At like 3am in morning here and I know it’s evening back home!“
“I know, I know, I just need to tell you something!” Rino’s cheerily voice speak through her iPhone, and Rachel just eventually went to rub her bridge. She was so used to him calling her late at nights to talk about puns and other important things (that were absolutely not about food),
“What is it?” Rachel said, ready to groan at whatever Rino was going to say. Hence she will have to survive another pun on the middle of her and her girlfriend’s last day of vacation.
“Okay, so we just got this news like a while back that the Supreme Court just legalised same-sex marriage!”
Rachel stop rubbing her nose and stand up from her chair, and face her iPhone, saying, “What? Are you kidding me?”
“I’m serious, Rachel! Look it up in the Internet!” Rachel took her time pulling out her laptop and booted up a browser, typing the court and the marriage and saw messages from Mayu, Tina and others--
“Rino, I love you!” Rachel turned around and a big smile spread across her face, “I need to wake her up!”
“Go! You guys are supposed to be coming home today, right? Hurry up! So we could all get to the courthouse and do the magic!"
She nodded madly as she ended their call, and put the iPhone on the desk. The dancer walk to the near bed where a large figure was facing down, hugging the pillows and Rachel took her time to straddle on top of the back of her girlfriend.
“Iza! Iza! Izzzza!” Rachel mused, shook her girlfriend as she groans and turned.
“Rachel, it’s too early to wake up!”
“We’re going to leave in a hour!”
“What?” Iza open her tired eyes, “But did you said we leave at...six...?”
“Silly, Rino and others just messaged me that something good happened today!”
“Yeah?” Rachel roll her eyes and look down with a grin.
“We can get married!” Iza blinked her eyes and pulled herself up with her prosthetic arms.
“Married? Did we just got married a year ago?” Iza was referring to that time when she first proposed Rachel on the roof with the most colorful ring, and they did had a small, but secret wedding only closed family and friends were invited. But that was a year ago, and in font of Iza was her wife smiling and in tears.
“Shut up! We’re going to be official!” Iza knitted her brows until Rachel explained her what just happened and her eyebrows raised as her eyes widen at the sudden news.
“Wait, are we?”
“Yes! So I can finally visit you at the hospital, or other things we couldn’t do when we got married!”
Iza had take all it in. She just stare at her girlfriend of two years and wife of a year, and she broke into a smile as she kissed Rachel eventually.
“...I love you.” Iza grinned happily against Rachel’s lips.
Iza hugged her lover from behind her and kissed the other's neck, murmuring, "Heading off, thank you for another great meal and I'll see you later tonight." She grinned, "Especially with a winning pay, for sure. I love you."
Rachel hummed when that happened, as she pick up the last plate. She nod with a smile and turned around with a grin.
“Come back in one piece, okay?” Rachel whispered as she gave the fighter a quick kiss, “And I love you too.”
Leave me a “I ship you with ___” in my ask and I’ll will write our characters kissing. (( -stares at it, roll her sleeves up because i read too much gay fanfics to for this started- ))
The sun was burning through the room and Rachel had watched it glow through the bedroom. The dancer felt the soft breath on the side and she turned to see Iza with a small sleepy smile.
“Hey...” Rachel pull off the hair in front of Iza whose only eye opened up with a small smile, “You awake?”
“Nope.” Iza said, closing her eye quickly and held Rachel tightly as Rachel laugh, “Not awake, not yet anyway.”
“Iza, come on!” Rachel mused, rolling over so she could face her with a grin, “I had work and you had practice!”
“Your work started at ten, not seven and mine’s in the evening.” Iza reminded and Rachel sigh with a smile, and her metal arm still cling onto her waist, holding the dancer closer to the fighter. Rachel reach out to brush off a hair that was on Iza’s forehead and Iza’s eye once again opened.
“Morning, my rose.”
“Morning to you, my prince” Iza mused sleepy and Rachel chuckled, scooting to get closer to her.
The couple’s faces were inches closer and the two kissed softy as the whole room started brighten like a yellow glow in a box.
(( 100% pretty sure the first time they started dating, Rachel accidentally touch Iza’s and she literally think she was going get screwed and now look our dancing prince oh my god Rachel sTOP ))
