Chapter 3
Helena leaned against the door with a smile as she looked at Celeste who was putting on her purple nightgown with a pleased smile which in turn made Helena feel quite happy despite her tired body aching.
"Did you have fun today?" Helena asked as she wrapped her hands around Celeste's waist. Celeste looked back at Helena who, due to her small stature, can't rest her head on Celeste's shoulders and smiled.
"Of course, darling." Celeste replied as she turned to face Helena and leaned down to kiss Helena on her cheeks. "I went out with Juliette today and oh was it so fun!" She added as she recalled all of today's events and told it to Helena who quietly listened to her speak with a smirk.
As Celeste finished, she noticed the way Helena was looking at her and especially how close Helena was with her despite the two already laying on the bed as Helena, who were facing her sideways, rest her head on her left hand while her right hand were wrapped around waist playing with her long platinum blonde hair.
"Oh." Celeste smiled slyly as Helena looked at her and hummed in confusion. Celeste didn't say anything as she knocked Helena down to lie flatly on the bed with her index finger as Helena's eyes widened in shock.
"Hm?!" Helena blurted out as Celeste lowered her head towards Helena and kissed her lips. Celeste slowly pulled away, leaving Helena gasping with her head slightly raised clinging to the taste of her lips. "Honey…" She murmured, her blue eyes drowned in lust.
Celeste smiled seeing the desperation from Helena's eyes as she sat on Helena's stomach, hearing Helena's groan that, regrettably, we're not because of pleasure but because of pain. Helena's back hurts.
Helena's displeased expression soon turned soft as she felt Celeste's hands caressing her cheeks and chuckled as she leant down and kissed Helena again.

A young child entered the room with a paper in her soft squishy hands, in it was a crudely drawn family portrait. 2 women holding a little child together in the middle, their eyes full of smiles and rainbows and glitters scattered around their surroundings.
"Mommy?" She asked with her soft tone and sweet smile seeing her mommy sitting at the edge of the bed, her back facing the young child. "Hehehe." She giggled as she climbed on top of the bed and slowly crawled behind her mommy and wrapped her fleshy hands around her mom's thin and frail body.
Seeing her mom unresponsive, she suddenly felt nervous as she shook her mom. "Mommy? What's wrong, mommy?" She asked and yet nothing seemed to pierce through her mom as she turned around with her eyes swollen and red from crying.
"My dear."
And with that, Helena woke up with sweats running down her forehead. She looked outside and flinched hearing another thunder roaring from outside.
She silently sat at the edge of the bed, her clothes laying on the floor with her body swollen and her heart beating past from both shock and also terror. She looked at the ethereal woman whose past asleep beside her with a small smile and looked away with a somber expression.
'Have I done enough?' She thought, looking at her palm as she clenched it close and open. She felt her wife hold her hand and smile widely as she rubbed her head against Helena's hands.
"Oh." Helena chuckled softly from the cute scene of Celeste holding her quite like an adorable baby. She slowly pulled the blanket up and went back to lay right beside Celeste and breathe a sigh of relief. She's safe now.

"I didn't think it would rain this hard." Vivienne commented as she sat face to face with Juliette who maintained a calm and stoic demeanor but Vivienne could see and feel how uncomfortable Juliette was feeling with the way her eyes fluttered and darted around the room, her hands clasped together—something that she would often do before when she felt nervous—and of course, the way her eyes never smiled despite how wide she tried her mouth to be.
"It is quite unfortunate." Juliette replied as she sipped the cup of coffee in front of her—it's bitterness which she dislikes keeping her calm and awake. "But, why have you come here this late, Mrs. Mercier?" She asked tentatively as Vivienne tilted her head and smirked. Creepy.
"Well," Vivienne replied as she leaned forward, resting her shin against her thighs. "I had some important business to talk about with your wife but it seems I'm quite unlucky." she explained with her still usual smirk as she observed Juliette from head to toe. Still as beautiful.
"Unlucky indeed you are…" Juliette murmured as she looked at the clock hanging on the wall and read the time. It's already 9:48 pm and yet, Isabella hasn't come back yet.
'That fucker.'
"How about you come another time, Mrs. Mercier?" Juliette suggested with a polite smile and an almost pleading look begging her to just leave her the fuck alone. "I apologize for this inconvenience and the embarrassing tardiness of my wife." She added as she smiled apologetically—flawless and beautiful.
Vivienne gritted her teeth at her words but soon regained her composure as she stood up. "That I should then, Ms. Juliette." She replied as she stood up.
"Please call me Mrs. Renard." Juliette spoke sternly as Vivienne looked back at her with an incredulous look in her eyes and her mouth agape but soon smirked. Creepy. And nodded her head with a hum.
"That I should do then, Mrs. Renard." Vivienne replied. "Well then, good bye." She spoke with a sweet smile that almost made Juliette scoff. "Till we meet again." she added with an unknown dangerous and creepy intent.
'What the actual fuck?'

"Aren't you going back?" Isabella asked as she puffed another smoke from her mouth and looked at the woman sprawled on top of the bed naked and beautiful. "It's already so late…" she murmured as the woman chuckled, which sounded like music to Isabella's ears.
"Oh come on~" The woman whined in a sultry tone as she sat up, her arms resting on top of her knee while her head leaned against it, the blanket loosely covering her plump body. "It's been so long since we had a time together like this…. Don't you miss me?" She asked as she looked at Isabella with puppy dog eyes that made Isabella's lips curled up without her noticing and her heart tinge momentarily as she chuckled.
"I do." Isabella replied as she kneaded the cigarette bud into the ashray and walked towards the woman and took her in her arms. "But, I wouldn't want this to be our last so…" She explained as she rested her head against the woman's neck. "You better take a shower and change." She whispered coyly with her arms dishonestly touching the woman in front of her.
"Oh you silly flirt~." The woman whispered with a heavy breath against her ears that made her feel both itchy in her heart and ears as Isabella blushed. "If you want me to take a shower properly, you better take me there yourself and… 'help' me out a bit." The woman winked as Isabella's eyes widened as she quickly swooped the woman in her arms and went to the bathroom with a wide smile.
