a single experience had been enough for her. lounging in the common room , otherwise known as chazz’s decked out dorm , she idly flips through the catalogue she’d been thrown at by one of the many eager participants of the ongoing festivities. she wasn’t going to bake , make or decorate anything , so she’s not sure why anyone would expect her to willingly throw ideas around , let alone take reference from this magazine.
for a moment , when she hears syrus come in , she believes he’s just as done with the celebrations as she was on the inside ---- he looked worn out and tired , but the lingering sense of defeat and ... disgust ? outed itself vividly. what was up with him ? this time , anyway.
irony makes it way back at the mention of mistletoes and she outwardly cringes , the butterflies in her stomach fluttering at the recent memory. they clearly had different outcomes they wished were opposite and yet , she bites back the initial comment over how dumb it was to give the plant so much influence. there’s something in his worn gaze that hits a sensitive nerve , her distant disposition easily falling in defeat at the mere sight.
did it really mean that much to him ? surely if he just stood under one long enough ... hm. though , he didn’t seem to be the most popular guy when it came to the girls. but to act so miserable over it ... even in his dramatic fashion.
she leaves him on the couch , standing from her slouched position on the furniture so she can rummage through chazz’s things , only partially listening to syrus’s rant. she was sure he’d have one lying about. it was chazz.
as she returns , sam leans over the couch where he lay , twisting her body around and using the back as a support , planting a quick , soft kiss on his lips. it’s easier with him , simple , the slight racing of her pulse managed and in control , a state that she’s most comfortable in.
moving back , she wiggles the mistletoe in hand , letting it hang over them without subtly , her laugh muffled behind closed lips with a brow slightly arched and a light smile on her face that looks oddly crooked. ❛ now you haven’t just kissed chazz , if that makes you feel any better. ❜
