Shawna was standing in the doorway of her bedroom as she saw Tessa turn off her camera wile still making the purring noise that she loves so much. “good video?” Shawna said jokingly at Tessa. “I hope” she said as she stood up from the couch and started to put her camera equipment away. Shawna thought about saying ' when aren't they good?' but she didn't want to be too nice to her best friend. “pizza tonight?” the red haired girl said abruptly shaking Shawna out of her daze. “...hmm oh.. yeah sure sounds great!” she said going back into her foggy state. “geez whats up with you?” Tessa said with a slight chuckle in her voice. To be honest Shawna didn't know what she was thinking. The brown haired girl laughed half halfheartedly at the attempted joke and went to the kitchen to get a drink.
'Shes acting weird' Tessa thought as she finished putting away her stuff and sat down on the couch.
Shawna came back a minute later with 2 glasses of water in her hands. “here” she said and put a glass on the coffee table in front of Tessa. Tessa purred in approval and thanks to Shawna then smiled. The brown eyed girl got tingly at the sound of Tessa purring in that special way that she does. She shook the felling and sat down next to Tessa and sipped her drink. Tessa took up the TV remote and started to flip through the channels.
3hrs earlier,
“hey Shawna I'm going to run to star bucks. Want anything?” “yeah ventamiglea!” Shawna said with excitement “okay be back soon.” Tessa said as she grabbed her bag and keys and headed out the door.
Shawna could taste the coffee already
'I might love coffee an unhealthy amount' she thought as she giggled and walked over to the couch and sat down.
“ugggggg” Shawna said with angst because her laptop had died and her cord was in the bedroom. “what now nannalew?!” she has a habit of speaking to herself when shes home alone. “how did the episode end????!!!” she exhaled for a long time before seeing Tessa's laptop and smiling one of the biggest smiles she's cracked in a wile. “Tessa wont mind, after all it is just the last 6min of SAO”. She grabbed Tessa's laptop and opened it.
After trying to crack her best friend's pass-code for a few minutes she stopped and took another look at the hint (LOVE) and tried to think. Out of the blue she typed (SHAWNA) and hit enter. (CORRECT) the screen went blank and so did the brown eyed girls mind. 'why would her password be my name??' she thought as an open browser page popped up one the screen of the laptop.
Shawna stared in shock at the page witch her best friend/ roommate had left open on her laptop.,
“Shawna Howson / Tessa violet
fanfic NSFW / NANNAKITTY / rated R”
Shawna felt dizzy as she read the first paragraph of whatever the hell this is.
“PULLING AWAY ONLY FOR A MILLISCOND TO BREATH. SHE RAN HER HAND UP HER BODY AS THE OTHER GIRL PASSIONATELY KISSED HER HOLDING EACH SECOND DEAR AS IF IT WERE HER LAST..*”
“I cant read this” she said as she shut the laptop. Her cheeks were bright red as the words that she read echoed in her head. She put the laptop back where it was and sat motionless on the couch. The door opened to her apartment and nearly gave Shawna a hart attack as Tessa walked in. “hey, sorry I was gone so long. I decided to go to the store and get some cookie dough for later.... whats wrong?? you okay??.” she had obviously noticed the sickly pale look on Shawna's face. “oh.. nothing!.. Its just …..umm.... raw cookie dough is bad for you!..” she said unconvincingly. “umm okay then." Here's your coffee.” Tessa said as she set the coffee down on the counter and put away the cookie dough in the freezer. “thanks Tess... I'm gunna take a bath.” she said as she grabbed the coffee and practically ran to her room.
Sitting in her bath tub, her hair up in a messy bun, the smell of the bubble bath soap she uses and the one candle that is resting on the edge of the tub would make for a nice relaxing soak you would think. But Shawna's head feels like its treading in a shark infested ocean. The same questions keep entering her mind. Shawna changed positions in the tub. Now leaning against the wall with her legs stretched out (as far as they can be in a tub) she try's to make sense of the thoughts inside her brain. “Okay, so, Tessa likes to read explicit sexual things that fans write about us.... is that a bad thing? you know it could be considered flattering. I mean. I never thought of reading them myself..... wait so Tessa likes me?? is that what it means?” Her head is spinning at the speed of light. “I never thought of Tessa as a lesbian. Huh. She is cute and funny and sexy as hell.” As she thought this last thing she pictured Tessa in her blue striped bikini that fits just a little to small. Shawna felt a twitch where she normally doesn't. It snapped her out of her daydream very fast. 'WHAT THE HELL? Shawna thought as she replayed what just happened in her mind.
Shawna got out of the tub a few minutes later. After draining the water, blowing out the candle and drying herself off. She went over to her bed and fell face first into the messy pile of sheets and pillows. She scrambled up to the head of her bed then kicked off her sheets and laid on her back looking up at the sealing. Shawna was emotionally exhausted from all the work her brain was doing to try to work out what these new found feelings meant. ' do I like like Tessa in that way?' she asked herself blatantly. “Honestly, I think I might...” with this her hart felt about 20 pounds lighter. She breathed out with a small smile on her face. She felt giddy. A word she never thought would describe her. She said it over and over in her mind “I Shawna Howson like like Tessa Violet.”
after a wile Shawna heard talking from outside of her room. She went over to her door and cracked it (because she was still naked) she saw Tessa talking to her camera. Presumably making another YouTube video. Shawna shut her door and sat back on her bed. Seeing Tessa sitting there made Shawna's thoughts go blank for a minutes. “Wait... what if she doesn't feel this way about me?” Shawna thought as her face fell. “you know, its probably just a crush, I don't love her... no I don't love her,..... I... can't...” Shawna sat there with a blank expression on her face then after a wile she stood up. “Yeah” she thought to herself “its just because of what I read..” Shawna got dressed in lose fitting pj pants and a white tank with a pink laced bra that was more visible than it should be. She walked to her door and opened it then leaned against her door frame watching Tessa finish recording her video.
