Chapter Text
“All I want to get is a little bit closer
All I want to know is, can you come a little closer?”
Waverly startles awake at the sound of banging on her bedroom door, “Waverly, get your ass up!”, Waverly jumps up, realizing she had fallen asleep at her desk the night before
Her history notes, fly across her desk and some landing on the floor, “Shit”, she mumbles to herself as she shoves her notes into her backpack
Quickly tossing off her pajamas, she threw on a plaid skirt, putting on tights underneath, and matching it with a black turtleneck. She ran her fingers through her hair, untangling the knots
A car horn beeps outside, Waverly throws her backpack over her shoulder and rushes down the stairs, and out the front door
“Only took you three years”, Wynonna groans, putting the car into reverse, “I fell asleep studying, I forget to set an alarm”, Waverly admits
Wynonna glances over, “Baby girl, you know there is more to life than school and homework?”
“Not if I want to get into a good University!”, Waverly replies,
Wynonna shakes her head, “Can you at least come to one party this break?”
“Wy, you know parties aren’t my scene”, Waverly tugs at the strands on her skirt,
“Waves this is my senior year, I want to see you get shit faced at least once before this year is over”, Wynonna says
Wynonna turns into Purgatory High, eyes searching for an open spot. Wynonna puts the car in park, turning towards Waverly, “Just think about it”
Waverly sighs, following Wynonna into the building.
Waverly and Wynonna move through the students standing near their lockers, talking about their big winter break plans.
Chrissy Nedley leans her back against her own locker when Waverly walks up to her, “Hey Chrissy!”
Chrissy smiles, tightening her hand around her books, “Hey Waves, you going to the party at Stephanie Jones’s tonight?”, Chrissy asks excitedly
Waverly lets out a groan, resting her head against the locker, “I wish everyone would stop talking about this stupid party”, Chrissy places a hand on her shoulder
“Waverly, it’s time you step outside of your comfort zone. You don’t even have to drink, just come with me”, Chrissy pleads,
“Fine, if it means you and Wynonna will get off my back, I’ll go”, Waverly says, Chrissy squeals beside her
“Hey nerds”, Wynonna says, Waverly closes her locker, turning around to yell at Wynonna
Waverly chokes on her words, at the sight of Nicole Haught standing next to her sister
Nicole Haught had been Wynonna’s best friend, for as long as Waverly could remember. Nicole had moved to Purgatory in third grade, and quickly became inseparable with Wynonna
“Wy, lay off dude”, Nicole smacks Wynonna in the arm
Chrissy chimes in, “Waverly is no longer a nerd, she’s coming to the party”
Wynonna’s eyes widen, a smirk playing on her lips, “Finally baby girl! Someone knocked some sense into you”, Waverly feels her face blush, the bell rings signaling that first period is starting
Wynonna turns on her heels heading down the hallway to her first class, “I’ll see you tonight?”, Nicole says turning her body towards Waverly
Waverly nods, unable to clear the lump in her throat. Nicole gives her a small smile, before walking towards Wynonna.
Waverly’s eyes linger on Nicole, until she fades into the crowd of students, “Earth to Waverly?”, Chrissy waves a hand in front of Waverly’s face
Waverly’s eyes shoot back over to Chrissy, whose eyeing her intently, “What?”, Waverly asks looking down at her outfit, “Is there something on my face?”
Chrissy shakes her head, looping her arm through Waverly’s, “Nothing at all”, Chrissy sings
“Why are you being weird?”, Waverly says stopping in front of her first period class
“We can talk later, I’ll come over to get ready for the party”, Chrissy says, untangling her arm from Waverly’s, giving her a small wave as she walks down the now empty hall
“Whatever”, Waverly mumbles, pushing her way into the classroom
The day dragged on forever, the students jumped out of their seats when the dismissal bell rang
Waverly walked through the parking lot, until she found Wynonna’s car, Wynonna was leaning her back against the car with a cigarette between her lips
“What have I said about that?”, Waverly pulls the cigarette out of Wynonna’s mouth, throwing it on the ground, smashing it with her foot
“Hey, that was my last one!”, Wynonna whines, getting into the car,
“Good, you shouldn’t be doing that”, Waverly says, browsing through the radio stations as Wynonna pulls out of the parking lot
“So, you excited for your first high school party?”, Wynonna asks,
“Sure, I guess”, Waverly says looking out the window
“Don’t be scared, Chrissy will be there and so will I”, Wynonna assures Waverly
Wynonna pulls into the driveway, next to the beat up pickup truck, “I thought he’d be at work?”, Waverly just shrugs her shoulders
Waverly walks into the house, “I thought you had work?”, Waverly questions sternly,
“I have a shift at eight”, Ward’s voice slurs from the kitchen
Ward had never been a father to Waverly and Wynonna, especially when their mother left. He left them to fend for themselves most of the time, Ward spent most of his days working or at the bar.
Waverly heads upstairs to her room, flopping down on the bed, she can hear Wynonna yelling something at her father before a door slams.
She grabs her headphones off her nightstand, turning up the volume of her music. Waverly closes her eyes, hoping that she would just sleep through this entire party tonight, so she wouldn’t have to go
“Waverly, I’m coming in”, Chrissy opens the door, flicking on the lights
“Chrissy, not the lights”, Waverly groans into her pillow
“Time to get ready”, Chrissy squeals, jumping onto the bed
“I think I’m sick”, Waverly coughs slightly
Chrissy smacks her in the arm, pulling down the covers, “Nope, get out of bed”
Waverly pokes her head out from under the covers, Chrissy is looking at her with a huge grin, “So I brought lots of outfits for you to try on and all my makeup”, Chrissy gets off the bed, grabbing her three bags
“Chrissy, can’t I wear what I have?”, Chrissy dumps out the clothes onto Waverly’s bed
“Waves, I love you. But the nerd outfits won’t cut it for tonight”, Waverly gasps, sitting upward in her bed
“Take that back”, Chrissy just smiles, throwing a dress at her face
“You need to look extra hot tonight, and as your best friend, I’m here to make that happen”
Waverly looks down at the bright red dress, eyes widening, “Can I at least choose from your outfits?”, Waverly asks
Chrissy nods, rummaging through her clothes, “We need to make all the boys drool over you!”
Waverly shakes her head, “No, thank you”
“Come on! Waverly you haven’t even had your first kiss yet!”, Chrissy says dramatically
“So? I’m saving it”, Waverly tosses the blankets off, walking towards her desk
“So, don’t you want to kiss Champ Hardy? Oh, what about Perry Crofte! He’s super nerdy”, Chrissy follows Waverly over with her makeup bag in hand
“Gross, no”, Waverly sits down on her chair, spinning towards Chrissy
“Eventually, you will want to kiss someone”, Chrissy unzips her makeup bag, pulling out different products that Waverly has never seen before
“Maybe someday”, Waverly replies
By the time Chrissy finishes Waverly’s hair and makeup, it’s nearly time to go. Chrissy makes Waverly try on more clothes than she ever has in her life, “Alright, let me see”, Chrissy calls from behind the bathroom door
Waverly runs her hand over the purple crop top, and high waisted jeans, one last time before opening the door, “Holy shit”, Chrissy grabs onto Waverly’s hand, twirling her in a circle
“You look hot”, Waverly runs her fingers through her now straighten hair
“Are you sure?”, Waverly asks
Chrissy nods, handing her a pair of brown boots, with a small heel, “Totally”
Wynonna walks passed the bathroom with bottles of alcohol in her arms, “Damn Waves, looking good”, Wynonna puts the bottles into a bag, before throwing her leather jacket over her shoulders, “Let’s go, nerds”
The ride to Stephanie's was filled with loud music blaring, and Wynonna singing loudly off key to every song. Pulling down the street, Waverly could already see cars lining up and down the road. The Jones’s were one of the richer families who lived in Purgatory, their house almost double the size of the rest of the resident’s
“Holy shit”, Chrissy says pressing her face to the window
“Welcome to the life ladies”, Wynonna chuckles, as she parks the car
Waverly’s hands felt clammy, her heart beating rapidly in her chest, “You can’t puke before you even had a drink”, Wynonna pats Waverly on the shoulder as they walk up to the front door
As soon as they step into the house, Waverly is hit by a wave of smoke and the smell of alcohol floods her nose
Chrissy leans into Waverly, “I see Rosita, I’m going to talk to her, I’ll find you in a bit”, Waverly nods, feeling her stomach twist as Chrissy walks away
Wynonna grabs Waverly by the hand, pulling her through the crowd of people into the kitchen, “Nicole”, Wynonna yells over the music
Nicole has her back towards them, but turns at the sound of Wynonna’s voice.
Waverly feels her heart jump, when Nicole’s eyes land on her, “Hey!”, Nicole is wearing a black leather jacket, with blue top underneath, paired with dark jeans and vans. Her hair falls in soft waves, sitting right under her jaw.
Nicole moves closer to Wynonna, handing her a red cup, “Here you go”, Nicole’s voice raises slightly, trying to speak over the music
Nicole’s eyes land on Waverly, “You came”, Nicole gives her a soft smile, Waverly feels her cheeks heat
Wynonna eyes Doc in the corner of the room, “Baby girl, I’ll be right back, have to go talk to Doc”, Wynonna presses a kiss to Waverly’s cheek before taking off
“Okay but”, Wynonna was already moving across the room, “So much for not leaving me”, Waverly mumbles
“Here let me get you a drink”, Nicole turns back to the bottles of alcohol lined up on the table,
“What’s your drink?”, Nicole asks over her shoulder, “Uh”, Waverly stutters
Nicole turns to fully face Waverly, “Have you never had a drink before?”, Waverly feels her ears burn, as she shakes her head
“That’s okay, how about you start with a beer?”, Nicole hands her an open beer, Waverly fingers brush gently against Nicole’s
Waverly shivers at the touch, taking a long sip of her beer, trying to calm her nerves
“Slow down there”, Nicole laughs as Waverly pulls the beer away from her lips,
“Sorry, I’m just a bit nervous”, Waverly admits
Nicole takes a step closer to Waverly, “You want to go somewhere quieter?”
Waverly chews on the inside of her cheek, “I’m sure you have other people you’d rather hangout with”
Waverly feels Nicole’s hand rest on her forearm, burning through her jacket, “Hanging out with you, sounds much better than dealing with these drunk idiots all night”, Nicole motions to Champ Hardy who is standing on the beer pong table, chugging two cans of beer.
“If you’re sure”, Nicole nods, grabbing two more beers, Waverly follows closely behind Nicole, so she doesn’t lose her in the crowd.
“Outside”, Nicole asks, as they push through the crowd of people, Waverly nods. Waverly is hit with the cold air, as soon as Nicole pushes the backdoor open
Nicole sits down on the open bench, Waverly sits leaving enough room between them, Waverly takes another long swig of her beer, “So, first party huh?”, Nicole’s eyes landing on her
“Yeah, I thought going to one would get Wynonna and Chrissy off my back”
Nicole finishes the rest of her beer, opening up the next one, “Parties aren’t all that great”
“Why do you go to them?”, Waverly says cautiously
“My friends, mostly. Flirting with pretty girls isn’t bad either”, Nicole says, Waverly chokes on her beer, causing her to cough uncontrollably
Nicole moves closer to her, “You okay?”, Waverly wipes at the tears in the corner of her eyes, trying to communicate that she was alright
“I uh, didn’t know you were gay”, Waverly blurts out, immediately covering her mouth with her hand
Nicole smiles widely at her, “Yeah, I just assumed most people knew”, Waverly nods nervously
“I’m sorry”, Waverly breathes out, trying to catch her breath
Nicole furrows her eyebrows, “For what?”
“Making you stay out her with your best friend’s little sister”, Waverly pulls at the strands on her jacket,
“I don’t think of you like that”, Nicole says
Waverly feels dizzy, when she turns her head to look at Nicole, “You don’t?”
Nicole takes another sip, “Not at all”
Waverly feels her heart skip, “Everyone sees me as Wynonna’s nerdy younger sister”, Waverly pauses to chug the rest of her beer, “I know I’m lame, but people don’t have to keep telling me”, Waverly’s words come out louder than intended
Nicole’s eyes lock on her, “For what it’s worth, I think you’re pretty cool”, Waverly feels her heart clench
“How can you think that? This is my first highschool party and I haven’t even kissed anyone” Waverly hears herself slur
“Hey, it’s okay”, Nicole puts a gentle hand on Waverly’s thigh
Waverly feels her stomach twist again, “You shouldn’t be nice to me, I just yelled at you”
Nicole chuckles, “You were just letting your feelings out, the alcohol helps with that sometimes”
Nicole’s hand stays firmly on her thigh, “Have you kissed a lot of girls?”, Waverly says honestly, “You don’t have to answer that, I shouldn’t be ask-“
Nicole cuts her off, “Don’t apologize. I don’t mind”, Waverly grabs the other beer off the ground, popping it open, “But, I’ve kissed quite a few girls”
“What’s it like?” Waverly questions
“Magic”, Nicole smiles bringing the bottle to her lips,
Waverly’s head feels fuzzy, “I think I’d like that”
Nicole smiles, “To kiss girls?”
Waverly’s eyes widen, “I don’t know”, Waverly feels bolder with the alcohol coursing through her veins, “Maybe”
Waverly looks down at Nicole’s hand resting on her thigh, “You’re really pretty”, Waverly looks up from Nicole’s hand
“I think you’re drunk”, Nicole smiles
Waverly shakes her head, “No, I’ve always thought you were pretty. Especially in that jacket”, Waverly slurs, moving closer to Nicole.
Waverly’s thigh presses into the outside of Nicole’s, “My head feels funny”, Waverly laughs into Nicole’s shoulder
“Waverly Earp, you’re such a lightweight “, Nicole says taking the bottle out of Waverly’s hand
“I was still drinking that”, Waverly pouts
“No more for now, I don’t want you throwing up all over me”, Nicole wraps an arm around Waverly’s shoulder
“That would be super gross”, Waverly says resting her head on Nicole’s shoulder
Waverly’s not sure how long they sit in silence for, before Wynonna comes barrelling out the back door, “There you are! I thought I lost you”
“You left me to go makeout with Doc”, Waverly groans lifting her head up from Nicole’s shoulder
“Guiltily”, Wynonna replies
“Let’s try to stand you up”, Nicole stands, grabbing onto Waverly’s hands
Waverly’s legs feel like jelly, causing her to fall into Nicole’s arms, “How are you an Earp? What did you have one beer?”, Wynonna laughs beside Waverly
“Hey! I had two!”, Waverly shouts against Nicole’s chest
Waverly inhales the warm vanilla scent of Nicole’s shirt, “Do you want me to take you home?”, Nicole asks looking down at Waverly
“No, can we go dance?”, Waverly asks excitedly
“Come on, I think I saw Chrissy dancing with Rosita”, Wynonna says helping Nicole hold up Waverly
Waverly sees Chrissy from across the room, “Chrissy”, Waverly shouts
Chrissy turns her head, she throws her hands up in the air, motioning for Waverly to come over, “Waverly, are you okay to go by yourself?”, Nicole shouts over the loud music
“Wait, aren’t you coming to dance with us?”, Waverly pouts, holding onto Nicole tighter,
“Baby girl, leave Nicole alone, we are going to drink some more”, Wynonna says, Waverly lowers her head
“I’ll come back around in a bit, okay?”, Nicole gives Waverly arm a soft squeeze
Chrissy is pulling her into the crowd of people, before she has a chance to say goodbye to Nicole, “Here drink this”, Chrissy thrusts a red cup into Waverly’s hands,
“What is this?”, Waverly asks
“Vodka”, Chrissy cheers, Waverly downs the drink, nearly gagging on the taste
“That is disgusting”, Waverly whines
Chrissy laughs, “Dance with us”, Waverly lets the music take over her body, laughing as Chrissy nudges her ass into Waverly’s front
Waverly feels her head become even more fuzzy with the added alcohol, she can feel the beads of sweat running down her chest, as the crowd of people dancing grows, “Chrissy”, Waverly tries to yell over the music
Chrissy doesn’t seem to hear as she continues to grind against some boy. Waverly pushes through the crowd of people, trying to get some air, “Waverly”, Nicole’s voice booms through the crowd
Waverly reaches out for Nicole, suddenly feeling sick, “Nicole”, Nicole grabs onto Waverly’s hands, “I think I’m going to be sick”
Nicole’s face turns to a panicked expression, “Okay, okay, let's go outside”, Waverly feels her stomach twist even tighter, as she walks with Nicole’s hand tightly gripped in her own
Nicole manages to get Waverly to a bush, before she empties out the alcohol in her stomach into the bush, “I’m so sorry”, Waverly feels tears prick at the corner of her eyes
“Wave, don’t cry it’s okay”, Nicole rubs a reassuring hand down her back
“I’m going to take you home, okay?”, Nicole says
“You can’t you’ve had something to drink”, Waverly slurs
“Always the smart one”, Nicole smiles, “I’ll take you to my house, we can walk”, Waverly nods
“I’m going to tell Wynonna, I think she was going home with Doc tonight”, Waverly groans, as Nicole lowers her to the ground gently
“Be right back”, Nicole takes off into the house, Waverly closes her eyes, hoping to help the pounding in her head
“Come on, let's go”, Nicole’s soft voice, makes her peel her eyes open slightly, “Wynonna is staying with Doc”, Waverly nods reaching out for Nicole.
Nicole helps Waverly up by the hands, “Do you need me to carry you?”, Nicole asks once they start making their way to Nicole’s house
“That would be so nice, my legs feel unstable”, Waverly giggles
“You’re still drunk”, Nicole laughs, sliding her hands behind Waverly’s thighs to lift her up
Waverly yelps in surprise, but quickly wraps her arms around Nicole’s neck, “Warm”, Waverly says resting her head on Nicole’s chest
Waverly dozes off as Nicole carries her, “Wave, I need to stand you up”, Waverly shakes her head in protest, “Only for a second”, Nicole sits her down, letting Waverly cling to her front
Nicole fumbles with a key in her pocket before opening the door, “I’m going to get you upstairs, then I’ll bring you some advil and water”, Nicole helps Waverly up the stairs and into her room
Waverly notices the amount of posters hanging on her wall, and the scent of warm vanilla, “Here”, Nicole says walking Waverly to her bed, Waverly immediately crawls in, tucking herself under the blankets
“Do you want to change?”, Nicole asks pulling out a t-shirt and shorts
“Nicole Haught, trying to get me out of my clothes”, Waverly fake gasps, her words still slurred
Nicole throws the clothes at Waverly’s face, “I’ll be back”, Waverly manages to get her shoes and jeans off before Nicole comes back
“Help”, Waverly whispers standing up from the bed, Nicole takes a step closer to her
“Are you sure?”, Nicole asks, Waverly nods
Nicole’s hands reach for the bottom of her crop top, Nicole’s fingertips brushing against the skin on her stomach
Waverly feels more sober in this moment, feeling the warm touch of Nicole on her. Nicole’s hands seem to move slowly as they lift the shirt over Waverly’s head
Nicole’s eyes look down at the shirt in her hand, then up to Waverly’s eyes, Waverly feels her breath catch in her throat, eyes dropping from Nicole’s eyes to her lips
Waverly is taken over by the feeling of wanting to kiss Nicole, to feel what her soft lips are like against her own
Waverly takes a step forward, till their chests are nearly touching, “Waverly”, Nicole breathes out, never disconnecting their eyes, “What are you doing?”, Nicole says even quieter
“I want to kiss you”, Waverly chews at her bottom lip, Nicole swallows roughly,
“Waverly, you’re drunk”, Nicole takes a step back from Waverly
Waverly shakes her head, then smiles, “I mean yes, but I know I’d want to kiss you sober”
Nicole reaches around Waverly handing her the t-shirt, “You aren’t going to remember any of this, okay?”, Nicole pauses, rubbing at the back of her neck, “So you need to sleep”
Waverly nods, climbing back into Nicole’s bed, “Take this”, Nicole hands her the advil and water, Waverly finishes the water, then rests her head on the pillow
“Are you coming”, Waverly mumbles, feeling herself fall closer to sleep,
“Yeah, I’ll be there in a second”
Waverly feels the bed dip beside her, “Thank you”, Waverly whispers into the silence
“Anytime Wave, close your eyes, okay?”, Waverly nods letting the warmth of Nicole’s body next to her lull her to sleep.
“Everything is new to me, I like what you do to me, now it’s you, only you”
Waverly groans at the pounding in her head, as she tries to open her eyes but the stream of sunlight casting through the window makes her eyes burn
Waverly rubs at her eyes, flipping over to avoid the sunlight, she reaches for her phone, but her hand bumps into what feels like a book, “What the?”, Waverly's eyes shoot open
She looks around, realizing she is for sure not in her room, and she’s definitely not in her bed, “Oh my god”, she whispers as she looks down at not the clothes she wore to the party
A light knock comes at the bedroom door, “Waverly, you awake?”, Nicole’s voice calms her, realizing she’s safe, at the sound of her voice all the memories of last night come crawling back to her
The drinking. The dancing. The throwing up. And Nicole, being so sweet and taking care of her. Nicole who she wanted to kiss.
She had asked to kiss Nicole.
“Yeah”, Waverly’s voice cracks, she grabs the water off the nightstand, downing the rest of it. Nicole walks into the room with a plate of pancakes, a water, and bottle of medicine
“I know you’ve never had a hangover, so I made you some things I like when I’m hungover”, Nicole pushes the door closed with her foot
Waverly sits up immediately, “Nicole, you didn’t have to do that”
Nicole places the tray in front of Waverly, “Just eat, and make sure you drink some water”
Waverly sips at the water, “I’m so sorry about last night”, Waverly says shyly, “Chrissy and Wynonna should have been watching me not you, I probably ruined your night-“
Nicole cuts Waverly off, “Don’t worry about it, I wanted to make sure you were safe”, Nicole pauses, “And you’re a cute drunk”
Waverly swats at Nicole’s shoulder, “Am not”
Nicole laughs taking a bite out of one of Waverly’s pancakes, “Are too”, Nicole smiles at her
“Wynonna is probably wondering where I am”, Waverly says taking a bite out of her food
“I told her last night, but I also called her this morning”, Nicole says sitting on the foot of the bed
“You’re the worlds greatest best friend, taking care of her little sister and all”, Waverly’s eyes nervously fall on Nicole
“I don’t see you as just Wynonna’s little sister”, Nicole says, eyes moving up to meet Waverly’s gaze
“Nicole about-“, A phone blares, causing Waverly to jump. Nicole pulls her phone out of her pocket,
“Hey Wy”, Waverly casts her eyes away from Nicole, “Yeah, she’s awake. I’ll bring her home”, Nicole nods at whatever Wynonna is saying on the other line, before ending the call
Waverly takes another bite out of her pancakes, “Wynonna asked me to bring you home, she said you have a shift at Shorty’s tonight”, Nicole explains
Waverly groans, “Shit, I totally forgot about that”, Nicole stands grabbing the tray off of Waverly’s lap
“I put your clothes in a bag, I think your phone is in you pants pocket”, Nicole says, Waverly climbs out of Nicole’s bed
“Take these, they may be a little long, but it’s cold outside”, Nicole says handing Waverly sweatpants,
Waverly slips them on over her shorts, “Thank you for everything”
Waverly follows Nicole out of her room, taking in her house, eyes widening when she realized how big it was, “Do you have a lot of siblings?”, Waverly asks as they walk down the stairs
“No, it’s just me. My parents just like showing off their wealth”, Nicole’s voice hardens, Waverly wishes she wouldn’t have asked, but Nicole turns back to her with a smile.
Nicole helps Waverly into her car, blaring the heat as soon as the car is on. The drive back to Waverly’s was filled with comfortable silence, and soft music playing in the background
Nicole pulls into the driveway, next to Wynonna’s car, putting it into park, before turning towards Waverly, “Well, how was your first party?”, Nicole asks with a wide smile, the one that shows her perfectly shaped dimples
“Shut up”, Waverly groans, trying to hide the smile tugging at her lips, “Thank you again, I probably would have done something really stupid without you taking care of me”
Nicole’s smile softens, “Anytime Waves”, Waverly feels the air shift, she desperately wants to bring up the almost kiss
Wynonna yells from her bedroom window, “Waverly get your lightweight ass in the house”
Waverly buries her head in her hands, “I’m never going to hear the end of that”
Nicole chuckles next to her, “Definitely not”
Waverly reaches for the door handle, suddenly finding some confidence, “Uh my shift ends at nine”, Waverly blurts out, Nicole’s face shifts in confusion
“Pick me up”, Waverly says, swallowing the lump in her throat, “Unless you have something else to do, I mean you probably do because you’re cool and-“
Nicole grabs onto Waverly’s hand, steadying her, “I’ll be there”
“Okay”, Waverly breaths, taking in the softness of Nicole’s hand in hers, Nicole gives her hand a squeeze before pulling her hand back.
Waverly hops out of the car, turning back once she makes it to the front door, giving Nicole a small wave
Nicole is already looking at her with a smile, Waverly feels her heat race as Nicole’s eyes linger on her for a moment, before pulling out of the driveway
Waverly enters the house, walking up the stairs into her room, where Wynonna is already sitting on her bed, “Hey lightweight”, Wynonna says while laughing
Waverly picks up the closest thing to her, throwing at Wynonna, “I can’t believe my sister is a lightweight, I thought I would have taught you better than that”
“Please shut up, my head is killing me and I have to work later”, Waverly groans as she lays down in bed
“Gus will let you call off, just say you’re sick. You’re family”, Wynonna says next to her
Waverly lifts her head from the pillow, “I’m not going to do that, even if we are family, so either be quiet or get out”
“Drinking has made you hard baby girl”, Wynonna slaps the back of Waverly’s arm, as she gets out of bed
“I’ll drop you off at work but I’m going to Doc’s after, so find yourself a ride home”, Wynonna says halfway out the door,
“I’m going to Chrissy’s”, Waverly lies, as Wynonna nods, closing the door
Waverly rolls over into her back, trying to focus her mind on sleeping instead of certain redhead who hasn’t left her mind since this morning
“Come on Waverly, go to sleep”, Waverly mutters to herself, as she buries her head into Nicole’s shirt. The warm vanilla scent still fresh from this morning, lets her eyes fall heavy
~
“Waverly”, Gus’s voices calls from inside the kitchen
“Yeah”, Waverly yells back as she finishes cleaning up one of the tables, “Put that last order in, then you’re free to go”, Waverly nods giving Gus a smile
Waverly checks the clock seeing it's nearing nine, which means Nicole should be arriving any moment, she quickly gets the order in, passing the order sheet into the kitchen
Waverly hears the bell over the door ding, her eyes turn to see Nicole walking in. She’s changed since Waverly saw her this morning, now wearing dark jeans, a sweatshirt , and vans. Waverly feels her cheek blush, as Nicole smiles at her
“You ready?”, Nicole asks, looking around the almost empty restaurant
“Yeah let me grab my bag, I also made us some milkshakes”, Waverly says
Waverly heads into the back, grabbing her bag, and stopping at the bathroom to look over herself. She fixes her high ponytail, and brushes off her shirt
She takes the milkshakes off the counter, shouting a bye to Gus, as she heads up front, “Here you go”, Waverly says handing a chocolate milkshake to Nicole
Nicole brings the milkshake to her lips, “This is fantastic”, Waverly smiles at Nicole’s admission
“Where do you want to go?”, Nicole asks as they walk towards the car,
“How about to the lake?”, Waverly says getting into the passenger seat, “It’s a pretty view at night”
Nicole nods putting the car into drive, heading out of Shorty’s parking lot, down the backroads till they make it to the lake entrance
Waverly scans the parking lot, she only notices a single car parked in the back of lot, “We can pull up to the clearing, so we don’t have to get out”, Waverly suggests
Nicole parks the car in the clearing, reaching down to grab her milkshake, “Thank you for picking me up”, Waverly says after a moment
“Of course, you don’t have to keep thanking me”, Nicole shifts in her seat, “I’m just a bit curious as to why you asked me though”
Waverly feels nervous without the alcohol in her system, “I just wanted to talk about last night”, Waverly says digging her fingernails into her palm
Waverly inhales sharply, trying to calm her voice, “About what I said”, Waverly pauses, “You know about, um kissing”, Waverly stutters over her words
She can feel Nicole’s eyes on her, not daring herself to look over at the redhead, “I shouldn’t have said anything, I’m just going to-“, Waverly reaches for the door handle, but stops as Nicole places a hand on her shoulder
Waverly is forced to meet Nicole’s gaze, “It’s okay, I honestly didn’t think you remembered”, Nicole’s voice is calm, “Are you okay?”
Waverly nods, “I just can’t stop thinking about what I said”, Waverly admits shyly,
“About kissing?”, Nicole questions, removing her hand from Waverly’s shoulder
“That, but more specifically. About kissing you”, Waverly’s eyes drop from Nicole’s eyes, down to her lips
“Oh”, Nicole breathes out
Waverly’s heart aches at Nicole’s words, of course she wouldn’t want to kiss Waverly. Nicole must have had millions of girls lining up to kiss her
“It’s whatever, I mean you obviously don’t want to kiss me, which is totally fine”, Waverly rushes out, “I’m so lame, I have no idea what I was thinking”, Waverly feels her chest tighten
Nicole grabs onto her hands, “Waverly look at me, okay?”, Nicole’s hands are cold from where she was holding her milkshake, and it makes Waverly shiver
“I need you to breathe”, Waverly nods, letting the air through her mouth and into her lungs, trying to loosen the tightness in her chest, “That’s it”, Nicole whispers, stroking her thumb over the back of Waverly’s hands
Waverly’s chest loosens, her breathing starts to regulate, as Nicole holds her hands, “I never said I didn’t want to kiss you”, Nicole says
Waverly’s eyes shoot up to Nicole’s, “What?”, Nicole smiles slightly, “I didn’t want to kiss you when you were drunk”
“I didn’t want to confuse you, and I didn’t want to lead you on”
Waverly tilts her head, “Lead me on?”
Nicole nods, “I’m not the relationship type Waverly, I didn’t want to kiss you and ditch you without explaining”
“I don’t think I’m ready for a relationship”, Waverly admits, “I think right now, I want to be less clueless about things”
“Like girls?”, Nicole questions,
“Yes, but also kissing, and other stuff”, Waverly says feeling her cheeks heat up
Nicole smirks, “I see”, Nicole readjusts their fingers, so they’re interlocked with one another, “If you’re looking for some type of experience, I could help?”
Waverly shivers at Nicole’s words, “You’d do that for me?”
Nicole pulls her bottom lip between her teeth, “I’d do a lot of things to you”
Waverly’s voice gets caught in her throat, “I really don’t know how to do any of this”
“I’ll show you”, Nicole says, “But we need to have some ground rules, I think”, Waverly nods in agreement
“First rule, Wynonna can never find out”, Nicole says
Waverly laughs softly, “Definitely a good first rule”
“Next, you dictate the pace. I don’t want you rushing into anything”, Waverly smiles at Nicole’s sweetness
Waverly chimes in, “Another rule, mostly for you I guess, but obviously it’s okay if you’re seeing other people”, Nicole nods, tightening her hand against Waverly’s
“We can still hangout outside of our experimenting times”, Nicole says, “So basically friends with benefits”
Nicole detangles their fingers, reaching up to push a strand of hair out of Waverly’s face, “And the most important rule of them all, don’t fall in love with me”
Waverly smacks Nicole hard on the shoulder, “Don’t be so cocky”
Nicole leans closer to Waverly, her stomach pressing into the center console of the car, “What do you want to do?”, Nicole’s face moves closer to Waverly’s
“I think I want to kiss you, but I don’t know what I’m doing”, Nicole gently takes Waverly’s hands, placing them on Nicole’s shoulders
“Don’t overthink it”, Nicole’s hands slip to the base of Waverly’s neck, resting in her hair,
“What happens if I suck?”, Waverly says
“You won’t, I promise”, Nicole pauses, “I’ll lead, just tell me when to stop, okay?”, Waverly nods
Nicole leans in, and Waverly can feel her warm breath on her lips. Waverly watches as Nicole’s eyelids flutter shut, Waverly presses her eyes closed
Waverly nearly misses the touch of Nicole’s lips on hers, but the soft touch makes her heart flutter. Nicole presses a more firm kiss against her lips, and Waverly feels every nerve in her body wake
Nicole captures her lower lip, sucking on it slightly. Waverly moves her hands from Nicole’s shoulder, onto her cheeks. Waverly presses her lips into Nicole’s, letting the feeling guide her
Waverly opens her mouth slightly, letting Nicole’s tongue touch hers for a moment, “This okay?”, Nicole pulls back resting her forehead against Waverly’s
“Yes”, Waverly moves her lips back down to Nicole, opening her mouth to kiss Nicole’s top lip, as Nicole sucks on her bottom lip
Waverly felt her heart pound in her chest, realizing she really enjoys kissing, “I think I like this kissing thing”, Waverly says pulling back for air
Nicole smirks slightly, moving her hand from Waverly’s neck to her cheek, “Yeah?”
Waverly nods, “You were right”, Waverly says
Waverly unable to keep their lips apart for long, presses a peck to Nicole’s swollen lips, “It feels like magic”, Nicole smiles sweetly
“And for sure, I’m definitely a bit gay”, Nicole laughs against Waverly’s lips, pulling her closer, letting their lips move together like they’ve done this forever
“You know I love it, so please don't stop it
You got me right here in your jean pocket, Laying your body on a shag carpet, You know I love it so please don't stop it”
Waverly texted Nicole the next night, deciding it was finally time they exchanged phone numbers, Waverly had typed her number into Nicole’s phone before she went inside her house, leaving Nicole with a quick kiss on the cheek.
Nicole had texted her back, letting her know that she was already coming over because Wynonna had wanted to watch a movie.
Waverly heard the opening of the front door, and Wynonna’s voice carry throughout the house. She could hear the sounds of footsteps up the stairs till they stopped in front of her door.
Wynonna swings the door open, “Hey, we are going to watch a movie, want to join?”, Waverly can see the redhead standing behind Wynonna smiling brightly at her
“Yeah, sure”, Waverly hops out of bed, following Wynonna and Nicole back down the stairs,
“I’m going to get some snacks for us, Nicole could you help me?”, Waverly asks in an innocent tone
“Of course, Wy get the movie setup”, Waverly says to Wynonna, making her way into the living room.
Waverly looks to the living room, seeing Wynonna engrossed in setting the television up, “Hurry up”, Waverly whispers, pulling Nicole by the hand into the kitchen
“Well hello to you”, Nicole smirks
“Don’t be an ass”, Waverly groans resting her hands on Nicole’s hips
Nicole covers Waverly’s hands with her own, “Wave, not now”
Waverly juts out her bottom lip, “But I want to kiss some more”
Nicole breathes in, “One quick peck, that’s it”, Waverly leans up pressing a soft kiss to Nicole’s lips
“Lets go, I’m about to start it without you”, Wynonna calls from the living room, Nicole leans down pressing one last kiss to her mouth
Waverly grabs a bag of popcorn and chips, handing cans of soda to Nicole, “So it looks like you were helpful”, Waverly teases
Wynonna is sitting in the middle of the couch, when Waverly walks into the living room, “Thanks baby girl”, Wynonna snatches the bag of popcorn out of her hand
Nicole laughs taking a seat at the far end of the couch, Waverly disappointingly curls up on the recliner that’s on the opposite side of the room from Nicole
Wynonna starts the movie, halfway through the movie Waverly feels her phone buzz in her pocket, she slides her phone out of her pocket, seeing Nicole’s name on her screen
Nicole Haught: I wish we were kissing right now, instead of watching this lame movie.
Waverly feels the tips of her ears burn, and her stomach fills with butterflies at the message.
Waverly Earp: Me too, but if we leave she will definitely be suspicious
Waverly looks up from her phone, to see Nicole gazing over at her with a smile. Someone’s phone rings, and Nicole everts eye contact with Waverly
Wynonna answers the call, pausing the movie, and holding up a finger signaling that she would be right back
“Who do you think that is?”, Waverly asks eyes following Wynonna into the kitchen,
“I bet it’s Doc”, Nicole says popping a chip into her mouth, “You think she’s going to leave?”
“I hear you whispering about me in there”, Wynonna says, walking back into the living room, “And yes, sorry to cut this short, but Doc needs a hand”, Wynonna pauses, “If you know what I mean”
Nicole throws a pillow at her, “We both know what you mean”, Wynonna shrugs, “Sorry that both of you aren’t getting any. Haught, I’ll stop over tomorrow”, with that Wynonna, heads out the front door
Waverly giggles, “At least she’s oblivious”,
Nicole nods, “Very good point”, Nicole pats the spot next to her on the couch, “We can finish the movie?”
Waverly nods, moving to sit next to Nicole on the couch, Nicole places an arm around Waverly’s shoulder
She feels a rush of nerves suddenly, “You alright?”, Nicole asks scooting closer to Waverly,
“I’m okay, I’ve just never done this before, I mean this sounds lame, but like cuddling I guess”, Waverly says, Nicole looks like she wants to bust out laughing at Waverly
“Don’t laugh at me”, Waverly whines, moving away from Nicole,
“No, come here”, Nicole says grabbing lightly at Waverly’s arm, “It’s cute”
Waverly huffs, moving back over towards Nicole, “Am I the lamest ever?”, Waverly asks in a quiet voice
Nicole shakes her head, “No, never.”
The movie continues to play in front of them, but Waverly’s mind has been drifting somewhere else, since Nicole moved her hand from her shoulder, down to her thigh
Nicole had been tracing light circle along her thigh, for the last twenty minutes, and Waverly felt like her body was on fire, as the movie begins to roll the ending credits across the screen, Waverly turns towards Nicole
“Kiss me”, Waverly commands, wrapping her hand around Nicole’s neck, Nicole dips her head kissing Waverly roughly against the mouth
The kiss was sloppier than the night before, Nicole’s tongue dips into her mouth, and Waverly can’t help the small groan that leaves her body.
Nicole pauses for a moment, “Waves, we are going at your pace, so tell me what you want”, Waverly breaths out, catching her breath for a moment
“Are you okay, if we just keep kissing like that?”, Waverly says nervously
“Of course”, Nicole leans kissing Waverly again
Nicole’s hands tangle in Waverly’s long hair, scratching at her scalp lightly, “I like that”, Waverly breathes out
Nicole smiles, continuing to scratch at Waverly’s scalp as they kiss. Waverly feels herself growing bolder as time passes, she pushes her tongue into Nicole’s mouth, enjoying the feeling of Nicole sucking lightly on it
Waverly’s hands begin to roam slightly from Nicole’s hips, into her hair, tangling in the short strands.
Nicole sighs into the kiss, pushing into Waverly’s lips, nibbling at Waverly’s bottom lip, before resting her head on Waverly’s forehead
“Sorry, I just have to take a moment”, Nicole breathes out, Waverly looks up at her through her lashes, she notices Nicole’s cheeks nearly match her hair, her chest rising and falling rapidly
“It’s okay, I feel like we should probably slow down for the night”
Waverly says bashfully, “I think my body may explode or something”
Nicole smirks, “Are you turned on?”
Waverly rubs at her forehead with her fingers nervously, “I’m assuming so?”
“Have you never been turned on before”, Nicole questions, gently taking Waverly’s hand in hers
“I don’t think so, I mean I’ve never felt like this”, Waverly gestures to her whole body
Nicole leans in pressing a kiss to Waverly’s nose, “That’s hot, you getting turned on when we kiss”, Nicole whispers against Waverly’s lips
“It is?”, Waverly squeaks, her hand tightening around Nicole’s, Nicole nods before connecting their lips again
Waverly lets herself get lost in Nicole for a few more moments, “Nicole”
“I know, I know”, Nicole leans back against the couch, letting out a dramatic sigh, Waverly smiles at the sight
Nicole checks her phone, “I guess, I should probably get going”, Waverly pouts, “You want to come over tomorrow?”, Nicole asks standing up from the couch
“Aren’t you hanging out with Wynonna?”, Waverly questions, as they walk towards the door,
“Yeah, during the day. I meant maybe at night?”, Nicole clarifies
Waverly’s eyes widen, “No, I didn’t mean it like that, I wasn’t trying to insinuate that we were going to have sex”, Nicole rushes out
“Nicole, it’s okay. I just didn’t think you’d invite me over”,
Waverly sees Nicole visibly relax, “Why do you think that?”, Nicole asks
“I don’t know, I think I’m just insecure, and you actually wanting to do things with me or just hangout, is kind of baffling”, Waverly rocks back and forth on her heels
“Hey, I don’t want you to ever feel insecure around me, okay? I told you I was down for this, but I’m also here as a friend, alright?”, Waverly feels her stomach go uneasy at the word friend
“Okay, I’m sorry”, Waverly replies, Nicole pulls Waverly close against her chest
“No more apologizes”, Nicole says, Waverly wraps her arms tightly around Nicole’s waist, “I’ll see you tomorrow?”
Waverly nods her head, letting go of Nicole’s waist, “Wait, would be able to pick me up at Shorty’s? My shift ends at seven”
“No problem Waves, I’ll see you then”, Nicole gives her one last smile, before getting into her car
Once Waverly sees Nicole drive away, she heads up to her room, scrolling through her phone, when a text pops up
Nicole Haught: You turn me on too, if you couldn’t tell. See you tomorrow
Waverly’s body heats up again, holding her phone against her beating heart, she can’t help the huge smile that tugs at her lips.
Waverly really couldn’t wait till tomorrow
“Whisper in my ear, I'm the only one you're lovin' on,
Take advantage of the moment, you're the only one that I want”
Waverly has been antsy throughout her entire shift, bouncing around from table to table, cleaning the counters and sweeping the floor, trying to keep her mind off Nicole
“Girl, what has gotten you so hyper tonight?”, Gus asks coming out of her office,
“Nothing, I’m acting like myself”, Waverly says
Gus eyes her, “No, there’s something else. You don’t ever want to sweep, and I just saw you out here ten minutes ago humming to yourself, sweeping the whole damn restaurant”
“I uhm”, Waverly tries to defend herself, but then she sees Nicole pushing through the front door, her brain immediately going blank
Gus looks from Nicole to Waverly, “How can I help you?”, Gus asks already picking up a pen to collect Nicole’s order
“Oh, I’m just here to pick up Waverly”, Nicole says, shoving her hands into the pockets of her jeans,
Gus nods, “Well kiddo, I’ll let you out early”
Waverly gives her a smile, sitting the broom against the counter, “You two girls have a good evening now”, Gus says before picking up the broom to sweep some more
Waverly notices something flash over Gus’s face, as they turn to leave Shorty’s. Waverly quickly forgets about it as, Nicole opens the car door for her
“After you”, Nicole says with a charming smile, the one that makes Waverly’s insides feel mushy
Nicole turns the radio up, letting Waverly sing to the pop songs that played as they made it to Nicole’s house
Waverly follows Nicole to the front door, once they arrived, “Are you parents home?”, Waverly questions
“No, they aren’t home most of the time. They travel for work a lot”, Waverly nods, picking up the change of Nicole’s tone
Waverly nods wordlessly as she follows Nicole upstairs, “You want to watch a movie for a bit?”, Nicole asks
“Yeah that sounds great”, Waverly says trying to wipe her sweaty palms on her jeans, as they enter Nicole’s room
“I’m going to get some snacks, if you want to change into something more comfortable, you can just look through my drawers”, Nicole pauses at the door, before heading down the stairs
Waverly tugs open the top drawer, immediately seeing Nicole’s underwear, she slams it shut, holding her hands against the handle. She managed to find a pair of shorts, and a t-shirt, avoiding the top drawer at all costs
Waverly changed into Nicole’s clothes, feeling a sense of warmth as the vanilla scent surrounded her, she adjusted herself comfortably on the bed, scrolling through her phone as she waited for Nicole
A light knock came only a few moments later, “Are you good?”, Nicole’s says from the other side of the door
“Yeah, I’m good”, Nicole opens the door, her hands holding a bowl of popcorn, and cans of soda,
“Thank you”, Waverly smiles as Nicole passes her a drink
“Okay”, Nicole pauses, leaning down to grab her computer off the floor,
“Have you seen any gay movies before?”, Nicole asks, Waverly nearly chokes on her drink
Nicole snorts, “I’ll take that as a no”, Waverly clears her throat, ignoring the burning in her chest
“I haven’t seen any”, Waverly says
“Well that’s about to change, let me be the first to introduce you to lesbian films”, Nicole places the computer in between them
Nicole scrolls through her computer till she gets to the movie she wants, “So we are going to watch Carol”, Nicole presses the play button, letting the opening of the movie begin
Waverly shifts closer to the computer, letting her hand dip into the bowl of popcorn every once in awhile, Waverly wasn’t sure how long the movie was playing for before her eyes drifted over to Nicole
Nicole was watching intently, eyes following the characters on screen, taking in every line they said, when Waverly focused her attention back on the screen, she felt her stomach drop.
The main characters were staring at each other in a mirror in their hotel room, then suddenly they were kissing each other, then the scene changed to them on the bed kissing, and taking their clothes off
Waverly felt the familiar feeling of heat fill her body, as the women continued to touch with no clothes on, Waverly took a peak over at Nicole, who had her bottom lip pulled between her teeth
Waverly took a sip of her soda, trying to cool the heat that was coursing through her body, Waverly hadn’t realized Nicole had hit pause on the movie
“Are you okay? Was that too much?”, Nicole asks, Waverly’s eyes darting from the screen to Nicole’s eyes
“I’m okay”, Waverly says hoarsely
Nicole nods, moving the popcorn bowl to the side, scooting closer to Waverly, “Come here”, Nicole whispers pulling Waverly into her chest, situating the computer in front of them
Nicole’s arm is resting underneath Waverly’s back, and Waverly’s head resting on the side of Nicole’s chest. Waverly attempts to pay attention to the rest of the movie, but the feeling of having Nicole so close, made it nearly impossible to concentrate.
Waverly watched as Nicole closed the computer, as soon as the movie rolled the ending credits, “What did you think?”, Nicole asks nervously from behind her
Waverly twists in Nicole’s arms, now facing each other. Waverly felt the words slip her mind, realizing how close she was to Nicole’s face.
“It was good”, Waverly’s eyes dropping from Nicole’s eyes, to her lips.
Nicole smirks slightly, resting her forehead against Waverly’s, “Can I kiss you?”
“Yes”, Waverly breathes out, Nicole leans forward connecting their lips
Waverly feels the oxygen leave her body, as Nicole kisses her hard, “Do you want to lay down?”, Nicole says in between kisses
Waverly stiffens next to Nicole, “We don’t have too Waves, we can sit up if you feel more comfortable”
“No, I want too. Can you just lead me?”, Waverly says shyly,
Nicole presses another kiss to the corner of her mouth, “Of course, and we can stop anytime. Just tell me”
Waverly leans in to kiss Nicole, “I trust you”
Nicole moves out from under Waverly, “Here lay back”, Nicole positions a pillow under her head, as Waverly moves to the center of the bed
Waverly takes a deep breath, as Nicole hovers over her, “I’m just going to lean on you a little okay?”, Waverly nods, Nicole takes Waverly’s hands, placing them around her neck
Nicole’s thighs press slightly into the top of Waverly’s, as she leans down to kiss her. Waverly groans into Nicole’s mouth at the weight of Nicole on top of her
Waverly’s hands slip into the ends of Nicole’s hair, running her fingers through the short locks. Nicole’s hands are holding herself up, on either side of Waverly’s head
Nicole opens her mouth, letting Waverly slip her tongue into her mouth, “Waves”, Nicole says resting her forehead against Waverly’s shoulder
“Yeah”, Waverly answers breathlessly, “Can I lay in between your legs”, Nicole pauses, “It’s okay, if you aren’t ready”
“Yes”, Nicole smiles, moving her thigh in between Waverly’s, pressing her stomach more into Waverly’s
Nicole kisses Waverly slowly, letting Waverly get used to the feeling of Nicole. Waverly runs her hands down Nicole’s back, fingernails pushing into her skin slightly
Nicole nips at Waverly’s bottom lip, releasing it with a pop. Nicole’s mouth moves from her lips, over her cheek. Nicole brushes Waverly’s hair away from her neck, placing a kiss right below her ear
“Is this-“, Nicole starts to ask
Waverly tightens her hold on Nicole’s back, “I’ll tell you when I need to stop, just keep going”, Waverly says sternly
Nicole leaves open mouth kisses along the column of Waverly’s neck. Nicole’s body starts to rock slightly, her thigh bumping into Waverly’s center
Waverly lets a soft moan leave her mouth, her cheeks flushing at the unfamiliar sound, “Jesus, Waverly”, Nicole says against her neck
Nicole sucks lightly on Waverly’s neck, till the skin beneath turns red. Waverly feels heat shoot straight to her core.
“Nicole”, Waverly whimpers against Nicole’s lips
“You need me to stop?”, Nicole’s voice is hoarse as she pulls away from Waverly’s neck
“Don’t you dare”, Waverly pulls Nicole down to connect their lips again, Waverly puts her hand lower on Nicole’s back pulling her closer
Nicole’s lips move from her lips, down to her neck, kissing and sucking on the bare skin. Nicole starts to rock her hips quicker against Waverly’s core
Waverly’s stomach tightens in a new feeling, as Nicole rocks her thigh harder into Waverly
Waverly can feel Nicole panting against her neck, and Nicole’s hands resting on her hips, the coil in her stomach starts to tighten even more
“You’re so fucking hot”, Nicole groans as she continues to move her thigh even faster
Waverly thinks her chest might explode, if she doesn’t loosen the tightness in her stomach, “Shit”, Waverly moans, unable to find words to say to Nicole.
Her stomach twists even tighter, Waverly feels her eyes start to roll back in her head, “Nicole, I”, Waverly voice catches in her throat as the tightness snaps
Waverly’s body arches, pushing harder against Nicole’s thigh, she can vaguely hear Nicole’s voice in her ear, “I got you, I got you”
Nicole lets her rub against her thigh for a few moments, before Waverly’s body collapses down against the bed.
Her body relaxes, Nicole’s lips press a kiss against her shut eyelids, “Wave”
Waverly slowly opens her eyes, “I’m sorry”, Waverly whispers turning her head to hide against the pillows
“Hey, don’t hide”, Nicole says lifting Waverly’s head off the pillow, “Look at me”
Waverly looks everywhere but at Nicole, “Please look at me”, Waverly finally brings her eyes to Nicole’s, “That’s better”, Nicole smiles
Nicole runs a hand across Waverly’s cheek, “Are you okay?”
Waverly groans, “I wish the world would swallow me up, but other than that I’m peachy”
“There’s nothing to be embarrassed of”, Nicole says, running a finger from Waverly’s cheek, down to her neck
“Yes there is, especially since that’s the first time, that’s ever happened”, Waverly whispers
“Wait, you’ve never had an orgasm?”, Nicole asks, eyes going wide
Waverly swats at Nicole’s shoulder, “I told you I was clueless about everything”
Nicole grabs onto her hand, “I mean I guess I assumed that you’ve touched yourself before”
“No, I never really thought about it”, Waverly says, Nicole smiles softly
“Waverly, I’m not here to make you feel embarrassed”, Nicole pauses kissing Waverly, “I’m here to help you”
“So, that totally wasn’t the lamest thing? I mean I know you’ve probably been with a lot of other girls-“, Nicole cuts her off, placing a finger on her lips
“First off, that wasn’t lame”, Nicole moves her finger off Waverly lips, “It was really sexy”, Nicole pecks Waverly’s lips, “And second, I’m not comparing you to anyone else, so you need to stop comparing yourself”
Waverly nods, nuzzling her face into Nicole’s neck, “Does it always feel that good?”
Nicole rests her chin on top of Waverly’s head, “I think so, hopefully I can make you feel that good all the time”
Waverly laughs into Nicole’s chest, “I don’t think I’m ready to go all the way yet, but I didn’t mind that”, Waverly says, chewing at her lower lip
“Waves, you’re setting the pace. Whatever you want to do, I’m down for”, Nicole says reassuringly, running a hand down Waverly’s back
“Thank you, for being patient with me”, Waverly says
“My pleasure, and I guess yours as well”, Nicole says jokingly
Waverly groans, “ You’re such a dork”
Nicole fake gasps, “Ms. Earp take that back right now”
Waverly giggles into Nicole’s chest, “Nope”, Nicole pushes Waverly onto her back, before straddling her hips,
“I said take it back”, Nicole says inching her face closer to Waverly’s
Waverly’s breath catches in throat, at the weight of Nicole on her hips, “Well maybe you should make me”, Waverly breathes out
Nicole’s eyes darken, a smug smile pulling at her lips, “I will definitely take you up on that”, Nicole surges forward connecting their lips,
Waverly swears Nicole lights a fire inside her, and Waverly’s not sure she’s ever going to want to put it out.
“Let it be, baby breathe, I swear I am right here, We’ll be good, I promise, we’ll be so good”
Waverly hasn’t seen Nicole since the night at Nicole’s house, which had been three day ago.
Waverly has been picking up extra shifts, trying to save as much money for her christmas shopping as she could, and Wynonna had been with Nicole for all three of those days as well
Leaving no time for Waverly and Nicole to see each other. So when Nicole texted her about a party on Friday, she immediately said, she would be there
Waverly called Chrissy, asking if she would come with her. Waverly had to move the phone away from her ear when Chrissy squealed into the phone
“Waverly Earp going to another party, who are you and what have you done with my best friend!”, Chrissy laughs on the other line
Waverly wants to say Nicole has done this to her, but she doesn’t. She just laughs along with Chrissy
Chrissy comes over bringing more clothes than she did last time, letting Waverly sort through the outfits
“Chrissy, did you bring that red dress?”, Waverly asks nervously, Chrissy face breaks out into a wide smile,
“You’re in luck”, Chrissy says pulling it out of another bag, flinging it at Waverly
Waverly looks over the dress, hands feeling the material beneath her fingertips, “I’m wearing this”
“Waverly Earp, are you trying to get some tonight?”, Chrissy says jumping onto the bed next to Waverly
Waverly knows her cheeks are flushed, as Chrissy stares at her intently, “No, I just want to change it up”,
Chrissy furrows her eyebrows, “I don’t think I believe you”
Waverly tries to stutter out a sentence, but Chrissy places a hand on her shoulder, “I know you’ll tell me when you’re ready”
Waverly nods, smiling at Chrissy, “Thank you”
“So let me do your hair and makeup?”, Waverly asks, Chrissy pulls Waverly over towards the mirror,
“Of course”, Chrissy tells her to close her eyes, “I want you to be surprised”
Waverly agrees, closing her eyes. Letting Nicole’s face flash in her mind, as she tries to relax herself
Chrissy taps on her shoulder awhile later, letting her know she was finished. Waverly opened her eyes, gasping at her reflection
“You like?”, Waverly’s hair had been done in soft waves, left down to fall against her back. Chrissy had down simple makeup on her eyes, but pairing it with a dark red lipstick on her lips
“Chrissy, I love it”, Waverly says moving closer to the mirror, trying to get a better look
Chrissy hands her the red dress, and small black heels, “Go get dressed, we need to see the whole look”
Waverly slipped into the dress, managing to buckle her heels without tearing at the skin tight dress, Waverly nervously walked back into her bedroom
Chrissy’s jaw dropped, “Whoever you’re trying to impress, will not be able to keep their hands off of you tonight”
Waverly’s heart skips in her chest, hoping Nicole won’t be able to keep her hands off her
~
Waverly tugs at her dress, as they walk up to the front door of Stephanie Jones’s house, “Are you sure this isn’t too much?”, Waverly questions before Chrissy opens the door
“No, you look hot as hell. Come on”, Chrissy grabs Waverly by her hand, pulling her into the house
Waverly thinks there might be even more people shoved into the house, then there was the first time she was here. The music is blaring, Waverly notices the walls shaking slightly as Chrissy pulls her forward
“Is Wynonna here?”, Chrissy yells over the music
“She should be”, Waverly says, eyes scanning the room till she sees Wynonna in the corner of the room
Waverly tugs on Chrissy’s hand, “She’s over here”, Chrissy follows behind Waverly
Wynonna is standing with a cigarette hanging from her mouth. Wynonna’s eyes widen once she sees Waverly, “Damn who the hell are you trying to kill?”
Waverly tugs at the bottom of her dress, “I wanted to try something new”
Wynonna inhales letting the smoke fill her lungs, “If any of these fuckboys try to touch you, let me know”, Waverly nods, eyes scanning the room for the redhead
Chrissy bumps into her shoulder, “Who are you looking for?”, Waverly whips her head around, to see Chrissy smirking slightly
“Nobody, just seeing the easiest way to the kitchen. I need a drink”, Waverly says quickly
“Nicole should be coming over soon, I told her to grab us some drinks”, Wynonna says, ashing her cigarette in a tray
Waverly chews on the inside of her cheek nervously, as Chrissy talks to her about some cute senior she saw staring at her
“Hey, I got us-“, Nicole stops mid sentence, nearly spilling the drinks all over herself
Waverly’s eyes lock on Nicole’s, feeling that now familiar tightness in her stomach. Nicole’s eyes burn into Waverly as she looks her up and down
“Jesus Haught, be careful with those drinks”, Wynonna says oblivious to Nicole’s eyes undressing her baby sister.
Nicole shakes her head, breaking eye contact, “Sorry, here you go”, Nicole hands a drink to Doc, then Chrissy.
Nicole gives the last drink to Waverly, her fingertips touching Waverly’s hand slightly as she passes her the drink
“Thank you”, Waverly breathes out
“My pleasure”, Nicole replies, and Waverly sees the darkness cloud Nicole’s hazel eyes
Waverly smiles shyly at Nicole, whose eyes are still on her, “Wave, I’m going to talk to that senior, I’ll meet up with you later?”, Waverly nods, never breaking eye contact with Nicole
Waverly misses the way Chrissy looks between Nicole and then back to Waverly, with a knowing smirk.
Chrissy fades into the crowd, Nicole takes a step closer to Waverly, “You want to go somewhere”, Nicole whispers,
“Please”, Waverly replies
Wynonna is mindlessly talking to Doc, “Hey Wy”, Nicole calls out
Wynonna looks over to Nicole, “What’s up?”
“Waverly needs to use the bathroom, I’m going to go with her”
Wynonna waves her off, “Make sure none of those boys start grabbing on her”, Wynonna says
“I’ll make sure of it”, Nicole smirks, taking Waverly’s hand, walking her through the crowd
“Where are we going?”, Waverly asks, as Nicole walks her upstairs
“To the bathroom”, Nicole says
Nicole knocks once at the bathroom, when no one responds, she pushes open the door, pulling Waverly in behind her
Waverly’s back hits the door, “Nicole”, Waverly moans, as Nicole’s hands rest tightly on her hips
“You did this on purpose”, Nicole whispers into her ear, “How am I supposed to keep my hands off you, when you’re wearing that”, Nicole nips gently at the column of Waverly’s neck
Waverly lets her head fall back against the door, tangling her hands in Nicole’s hair, “I wanted you to notice me”
Nicole stops her motions, lifting her lips from Waverly’s neck, “I’ve always noticed you”, Nicole tilts Waverly’s chin up till their lips are inches a part
Waverly smiles into the kiss, letting her tongue slip into Nicole’s mouth. The base of the music pumps through the door, matching the rhythm of Waverly’s heart
Nicole’s hands slide from Waverly’s hips to the small of her back resting her hands slightly above Waverly’s ass
Nicole breaks away from the kiss, “Can I?”
Waverly pushes into Nicole, “Please”
Waverly groans as Nicole’s hands grab at her backside over the tight material, Nicole’s lips move quickly all over Waverly’s neck, then back up to her lips
Nicole slips her thigh in between Waverly’s leg, pressing up against her, “Nic”
“Yeah, baby”, Nicole says rocking her leg quicker against Waverly
Waverly gasps at Nicole’s movement against her center, and the way she called her baby
“I like that”, Waverly sighs as Nicole’s hands push at Waverly’s hips, helping her rock against Nicole
Nicole lets her hands roam back down to Waverly’s ass, squeezing it softly, “This?”, Nicole asks, her voice laced with confidence
“Yeah that, but”, Waverly’s words catch in her throat, when Nicole sucks at her pulse point, letting her teeth nip gently at Waverly’s neck
“How about that?”, Nicole whispers into Waverly’s ear
“All of that is good”, Waverly chokes out, “But I really like it when-“
Nicole’s thigh moves faster against Waverly’s center, and Waverly feels the coil in her stomach tighten even more
“When you come on my thigh?”, Nicole chews on her lower lip as her eyes watch Waverly move against her thigh
Waverly’s eyes roll back, her head thumping against the wall again, she moves her hands from Nicole’s hair, down to her hips
Waverly’s chest burns, and she feels tiny beads of sweat collecting on her lower back, as Nicole keeps thrusting her thigh up against Waverly
“I think I know what you like the best”, Nicole rests her forehead against Waverly’s, “You like when I talk to you”
Waverly moans her eyes squeezing shut, “You like when I ask what you want”, Nicole pauses, “I think I figured out something else you like”
Nicole pushes a piece of Waverly’s hair behind her ear, “Isn’t that right, baby?”
Waverly tightens her hold on Nicole’s lower back, twisting her fingers in Nicole’s shirt, “I think it’s about to happen again”, Waverly says against Nicole’s lips
“Hello? Anybody in there”, a voice who was not Nicole’s or Waverly calls from behind the door
“Fuck”, Nicole moves her thigh from against Waverly’s center, “Hold on”, Nicole yells
Waverly’s chest is heaving, and the pounding between her legs is almost painful, Nicole gives her a sad smile before wiping the sweat from her forehead
“I’m sorry”, Nicole says pressing a kiss to Waverly’s lips,
“It’s okay, we couldn’t keep going with someone right outside”, Waverly says pulling down at her dress
“I know, but I’m totally blue balling you right now”, Nicole runs a hand through her hair
Waverly laughs, leaning her head into Nicole’s chest, “You’ll just have to make it up to me later”
“It would be my pleasure”, Nicole smirks leaning down for one more kiss
Waverly puts her hand on Nicole’s shoulders to stop her, “You have some of my lipstick, um on you”, Nicole turns to look at herself in the mirror
Waverly’s red lipstick is on Nicole’s lips, and along her neck, “Damn”, Nicole laughs turning on the sink wiping away at the red streaks
“I’m sorry”, Waverly says shyly
“Don’t be”, Nicole says kissing her cheek after she finishes cleaning herself
Nicole opens the door, letting Waverly out first
“Jeez, it took you long enough”, the guy said as he pushed passed them into the bathroom
“Guess he really had to go”, Nicole laughs, reaching down to link her hands with Waverly’s
Waverly’s eyes cast down at their hands, and then back up at Nicole, “Just so I don’t lose you”, Nicole says moving through the crowd
“Right”, Waverly mumbles to herself, her chest sinking a bit, before Nicole turns back giving her a smile
“You okay?”, Nicole asks, eyebrows furrowing, Waverly nods returning a smile
Waverly thinks as long as Nicole is holding her hand, she’ll be okay
“Put it in drive, I’ll be outside, I’ll be on the way, I’ll be on the way”
Waverly couldn’t seem to pull herself out of bed, it didn’t matter anyway since she was still on break and she called Gus letting her know she was sick, and wouldn’t be able to work tonight
“Waverly”, Wynonna knocked on the door, “Why don’t we go out tonight”, Wynonna calls
“I don’t feel good”, Waverly lied tossing a blanket over her head
Wynonna opens the door, “You’ve been in your room all day”, Wynonna pauses, “Come on Christmas is in two days Waverly, let's go look at some lights or some shit”
Waverly pokes her head out from under the blankets, “No, thank you”
Wynonna sits on the bed, “Waves”, Waverly hates the way Wynonna’s voice softens,
“Don’t, I’m fine”, Waverly says facing away from Wynonna
“You do this every year, and I know it’s not fine”, Wynonna places a hand on Waverly’s leg
“Wy, please”, Waverly feels tears burn in her eyes
“Alright, if you need anything just call”, Wynonna leans over pressing a kiss to Waverly’s forehead
“I love you”, Wynonna says quietly
Waverly turns slightly, giving Wynonna a small smile, “Love you too sis”
Wynonna gives her a pat on the leg, before exiting Waverly’s room
Waverly hears the engine of Wynonna’s car start, then disappear as she pulls out of the driveway
She lets the tears fall from her eyes, letting herself be consumed by the painful ache in her chest. Waverly held a hand over her mouth, to stifle the sounds of her cries
Her phone ringing, startled Waverly, grabbing it off the nightstand, she held it to her ear
“Hello”, Waverly cursed the way her voice cracked
“Waves, it’s me”, Nicole’s soft voice says on the other end
Waverly had seen Nicole the night before, but Wynonna had crashed their evening and suggested they go out to a movie. Nicole had sat in between Wynonna and Waverly, sliding her hand close to Waverly’s, letting their fingers brush throughout the movie.
“Nicole, hey”, Waverly tried to clear her throat, hoping to sound less pathetic
“What’s wrong?”, Nicole asks sweetly
“How do you know something’s wrong?”, Waverly responses, sniffling slightly
“I can hear you sniffling”, Nicole waits a second, “And Wynonna texted me that you were sad”
Waverly lets out a watery chuckle, “She really doesn’t know how to deal with emotions”
“She really doesn’t”, Nicole joining Waverly with a small laugh
“Would you mind, um”, Waverly starts to ask
Nicole interrupts, “I’ll come and get you”, Nicole says, Waverly can hear her shuffling in the background
“I’ll be there soon”, Waverly nods even though she knows Nicole can’t see her
Waverly watches from her window, heading down the steps as she sees Nicole car pull down the street
“Hey”, Nicole smiles as Waverly hops into the passenger seat
“Hi back”
“Is it okay, if we just go to my house?”, Nicole asks pulling at the strings on her jacket,
“That sounds perfect”, Waverly says reaching out her hand, seeking the feeling of Nicole’s hand in hers
Nicole brings Waverly's hand up to her lips, pressing a kiss on her palm. Waverly holds on to Nicole’s hand tightly for the entire drive
Waverly follows Nicole up to her room, knowing the way by heart now.
Nicole closes the door quietly, as Waverly climbs into bed, “Lay with me”, Nicole nods laying down next to Waverly
Waverly tucks herself into Nicole’s chest, letting her hand rest on Nicole’s stomach. Nicole’s hand ran through Waverly’s hair, softly scratching at her scalp
“You want to talk about it?”, Nicole speaks up, Waverly casts her eyes up at Nicole
“It’s going to sound stupid”, Waverly says
Nicole presses a kiss to Waverly’s forehead, “Nothing you feel is stupid”
Waverly takes a deep breath, “I get really sad around Christmas time, every year”, Waverly blinks trying to push back the building tears
“My mom, she left when I was six. It was around this time”, Waverly pauses, clearing her throat, “We didn’t even know why. She left us a note, and gifts under the tree”
Nicole tightens her arm around Waverly, “Then my dad started drinking more, and he’s never home now. He barely says anything to us”
Waverly’s chest aches, as tears stream down her cheeks, “Christmas just reminds me of all that I lost and I hate it”
“You still have Wynonna”, Nicole says,
“I know, but sometimes it’s hard for her to understand. I’m the sensitive one, I guess” Waverly says sadly
“It’s okay to be sensitive”, Nicole reaches to wipe the tears on Waverlys cheeks, “And you have me”
Waverly lifts her head off Nicole’s chest, “Yeah?”, Nicole smiles leaning forward pressing a kiss to Waverly’s lips
“I know you don’t like Christmas, but maybe we could start our own tradition”, Nicole pulls back from the kiss
Waverly nods, “What are you thinking?”
“How about some Christmas movies?”, Nicole says turning to grab her laptop, “I have tons of them, I used to watch them when I was younger, but my parents aren’t really around”
Waverly presses a kiss to Nicole’s cheek, “Well you have me now”
Waverly watched as something passed over Nicole’s face, before she broke out into a wide grin, “Yeah?”
“For as long as you want me”, Waverly blushes at the words as soon as they leave her mouth
Nicole doesn’t seem to notice Waverly’s blush, leaning forward and connecting their lips, “I think it’s time to make it up to you”, Nicole’s lips trailing across Waverly’s neck
Nicole throws her leg over Waverly’s hip, sitting softly on top of her, “For the party, more specifically the bathroom incident”
Waverly’s body goes slack, under the weight of Nicole, “I definitely will not object to that”
Nicole’s dimples pop, when she smiles down at Waverly, “You’re something else”, Waverly reaches up, placing her hands around Nicole’s neck
“Kiss me”, Waverly breathes
“What about the movies?”, Nicole jokes, trying to pull away from Waverly
“Later, much later”, Waverly mumbles into Nicole’s lips
“Every moment spent with you, I bet was always eventful, I’ve never seen your type of species give me heebie-jeebies”
Wynonna told Waverly that Nicole would be sleeping over tonight. It was Christmas Eve and Wynonna didn’t want Nicole to be alone
Waverly jumped at the idea, knowing she wouldn’t get any alone time with Nicole, she suggested the three of them hang out together
“I can get us matching pajamas and we can watch christmas movies together”, Waverly squeals, “And Dad won’t be home, so we don’t have to worry about him”
Waverly jumps when another idea pops into her head, “We can bake cookies too, I just need someone to take me to the store, but we totally can”
Wynonna held up her hands, “I think I liked it better when you hated Christmas”
Waverly pouts, stepping to move around Wynonna, “Hey, I didn’t say we couldn’t do it. You’re just being a big nerd about this”
“Wow, way to make me feel better”, Waverly sighs,
“Okay, I’m sorry Waves, we can do this whole christmas thing, if you really want”, Wynonna says
Waverly pulls Wynonna into a hug, “Thank you”
“Yeah, yeah, but I’m having a beer when we make these cookies”, Waverly smacked Wynonna on the shoulder
“And Nicole is going to think this is super lame by the way”, Wynonna says over her shoulder as she walks into the living room
“No, she won’t”, Waverly whispered to herself
Waverly shot Nicole a text, asking her to bring over her christmas movies, before Waverly got into the shower
She heard Wynonna’s voice yell from outside the bathroom, “Nicole’s here, hurry up, so we can do your lame plan”
Waverly hears Wynonna yelping, assuming Nicole stops up for Waverly, makes her heart warm
She quickly finishes in the shower, throwing on jeans and a oversized sweater. Waverly hears music coming from Wynonna’s room
“Wy”, Waverly calls banging her fist against the door, she can hear the music stop and rustling behind the door
“Proceed”, Wynonna says, Waverly opens the door, her eyes fall on Nicole whose sitting on Wynonna’s desk chair
Waverly freezes at the sight of Nicole in a beanie, leather jacket, and the tightest jeans she’s ever seen, “Uh, hi”
Nicole spins in the chair, locking eyes with Waverly, “You ready for the store?”
Waverly nods, “Are you suddenly mute, because you wouldn’t shut up earlier?”, Wynonna says grabbing her jacket off the chair
Nicole tosses a shoe at Wynonna, hitting her in the stomach, “Be nice, it’s fucking christmas”
Waverly smiles at Nicole, “Alright I’m driving, because you nearly killed us last time”, Nicole says
Nicole grabs her keys, as she brushes past Waverly, letting her hand gently knock against Waverly’s
“That was one time Haught”, Wynonna groans following Nicole out of her room
“Baby sis, you are sitting in the back”, Wynonna yells as she exits through the front door
“Fine”, Waverly puts on her coat, before heading out to the car
“Wait, I got to pee”, Wynonna yells hopping out of the car
Nicole groans leaning her head against the seat, “She’s going to take forever”
Waverly moves behind the driver's seat, reaching her hand around, to run her fingers up and down Nicole’s arms, “Hi”
Nicole twists her neck, trying to get a better look at Waverly, “Hi yourself”
Waverly’s eyes flash from the front door, back down to Nicole’s eyes, “You look, um really good”, Waverly says, biting on her bottom lip
“Waves”, Nicole says with a warning tone, “She’ll be back any second”
Waverly sighs deeply, moving to sit back against the seat, “I know”
Nicole opens her mouth to say something, but Wynonna swings open the door, jumping into the car, “Let's get this party started”, Wynonna chants
“And you said I was a nerd”, Waverly mumbles from the backseat, Nicole adjusts the radio letting the Christmas music fill the car
Pulling into the shopping center, Wynonna had already claimed she was in charge of the matching pajamas, “I’m the coolest out of this group, so i’ll pick the best ones”
“Who decides on the cool levels?”, Nicole laughs as they walk into the store, “Because they’re definitely not correct”
Wynonna grabs a cart, pushing it over to Nicole and Waverly, “Well Waverly is the lamest, so it was a tie between you and I”, Wynonna pauses, “And you said Waverly’s Christmas plan was cute”
Nicole’s cheeks flush, “So that makes you just as lame as Waverly”, Wynonna says, walking away towards the clothes aisle
“You thought my idea was cute”, Waverly turns to Nicole, who’s rocking on the balls of her feet,
“I mean yeah, and you’re cute so”, Nicole says
“Thanks for not thinking I’m the lamest”, Waverly smiles knocking her shoulder into Nicole’s
“Never”, Nicole replies
Waverly wishes she could lean up and kiss Nicole in the middle of the store, but she knows she can’t
Because in the outside world, they’re just friends. And Waverly tries to ignore the feeling of hurt that flashes through her
“You alright?”, Nicole asks, pushing the cart through the aisles
Waverly shakes the feeling away, “Of course, let's go find some baking stuff”
Wynonna, Waverly, and Nicole pile into the car with enough baking goods to feed a small village
“Waves, did you think you got enough cookie dough?”, Wynonna calls from the front seat,
“Well I’m going to eat some of it when I’m cooking”, Waverly admits shyly
Nicole laughs, eyes meeting Waverly’s in the rear view mirror
“You two can cook it, I’ll just eat it”, Wynonna says
“Whatever, you’d probably burn the cookies anyway”, Waverly says , as her eyes watch Nicole the entire ride back to the house
Waverly and Nicole carried the bags into the kitchen, Wynonna ran off to get dressed in her pajamas
“Maybe if she eats and drinks enough, she’ll pass out on the couch”, Nicole says dropping the bags onto the kitchen counter
Nicole moves behind Waverly, letting her hands rest gently on Waverly’s hips, “So we can sneak off, and have our own celebration”
Waverly shivers as Nicole’s breath hits her ear, “I’d like that”
Nicole smacks Waverly’s ass lightly as she moves to take things out of the grocery bags, Wynonna strolls in a onesie covered in candy canes, “So how do I look?”, Wynonna twirls
“You look super cute”, Nicole says taking the cookie sheets out of the oven
“Haughtstuff, I’m flattered but you're not my type”, Wynonna jokes, grabbing a handful of cookie dough, that Waverly had just rolled out and put it into her mouth
Nicole laughs grabbing the rest of the ingredients for the cookies, “It’s okay, I’m definitely not after you”
Waverly chokes, coughing roughly trying to get air flow back into her lungs, “Jeez, here drink this”, Wynonna says handing Waverly a glass of water
“Thanks”, Waverly takes a sip of the water, letting it cool her burning chest.
Wynonna gives Waverly a pat on the back, before moving to the cabinet, reaching to grab the whiskey bottle, “I’ll be watching some tv while you guys bake”
Nicole flips her off as Wynonna walks into the living room, and propping her feet up on the table
“She is no help ever”, Waverly laughs, making small cookie shapes from the dough on the oven pan
Nicole helps, placing cookies on the other pan, gently brushing her hand against Waverly’s to grab more dough, “I could have told you that”
Waverly and Nicole work in comfortable silence, until all the pans are filled with cookies, “Let’s get these in the oven”, Nicole pauses, “Then we can start on the movies”
Waverly puts them in the oven, setting a timer to make sure they don’t burn, “Wy, where are our pajamas”, Waverly asks cleaning up the counter
“I put them yours in your room, Nicole’s are in the bathroom, go change I want to watch movies”, Wynonna answers back from the living room
Nicole wiggles her eyebrows out Waverly suggestively, “Alone time”
Nicole grabs Waverly by the hand, turning back towards Wynonna, “Be down in a bit”
“Whatever”, Nicole hears Wynonna say as they make it to the top of the steps
Nicole opens the door to Waverly’s room, stopping abruptly causing Waverly’s front to slam into the back of Nicole
“Shit, sorry”, Waverly apologizes, Nicole turns to face her with a smile on her face,
“Why are you looking at me like that?”, Waverly questions, feeling nervous under Nicole’s gaze
“Because I want to kiss you”, Nicole says smoothly taking a step forward, placing a hand on Waverly’s waist
“You think you’re so smooth, don’t you?”, Waverly chuckles leaning into Nicole’s touch
“Is it working?”, Nicole’s lips ghosting over Waverly’s
Waverly nods, grabbing Nicole by her jacket collar, pulling her down for a bruising kiss
Nicole let out a soft moan into Waverly’s mouth, which urged Waverly on, she let go of the collar of Nicole’s jacket, running her hands to the small of Nicole’s back
Waverly felt Nicole stiffen for a moment, “You can touch me, don’t be afraid”, Nicole whispers against Waverly’s lips
Waverly lets her hands fall to Nicole’s ass, grabbing softly through Nicole’s jeans, Waverly watched as Nicole’s eyes fluttered closed at the touch
“You’re really hot”, Waverly breathes out, letting her mouth wander to Nicole’s neck, pressing a soft kiss to Nicole’s neck
Nicole’s hand tightens in Waverly’s hip, “Waverly”
Waverly kissing along Nicole’s neck, letting her tongue touch the soft skin for a moment, “Wait”
Waverly jerks her mouth away from Nicole, “Did I do something wrong?”
Nicole shakes her head, “I don’t want to start something, we can’t finish”, Nicole kisses Waverly once more
“And I don’t want to pressure you into anything”, Nicole says looking Waverly in the eyes
“You haven’t pressured me, every kiss and every touch, was something I wanted to do”, Waverly says tangling her hand in Nicole’s hair, hoping she believes her words
“Okay”, Nicole smiles, pulling away from Waverly, “Wynonna is going to start calling for us soon”
Waverly pouts, moving around Nicole to grab the pajamas, “Then we better get changed”
Nicole nods, “I’m going to get changed in the bathroom, I’ll be right back”, Nicole heads for the door, smiling once more at Waverly before exiting the room
Waverly bit her lip trying to hold back the squeal she desperately wanted to let go, instead focusing her attention on getting changed before Nicole came back into the room
She flings off her clothes, pulling on the two piece pajamas that are covered in small santa hats
“Waverly”, Wynonna’s voice shouts through the house, Waverly checks herself over in the mirror, then heads downstairs
“What’s up?”, Waverly asks, watching as Wynonna cracks open another beer
Wynonna motions to the kitchen, “The timer buzzed”, Waverly grabbed a towel before pulling the cookies out of the oven, resting them on the counter
“It smells good in there”, Wynonna calls out
“Let me just put them on a plate”, Waverly responses
Placing the cookies on the plate, Waverly walked into the living room, where Wynonna sat in the same spot
“Where’s Nicole?”, Waverly says eyes scanning the living room
“Still getting her pajamas on”, Wynonna says, Waverly notices the way Wynonna seems to be holding in a laugh
“Wynonna, what did you do”, Wynonna doesn’t have a chance to answer before Nicole comes walking down the stairs
Waverly’s eyes nearly fall out of her eyes, at the sight of Nicole’s long legs uncovered. Nicole has her hands folded across her chest tightly
“Let me see the front”, Wynonna turns in her seat, smirking slightly
“Fuck you”, Nicole whines, sitting on the far end of the couch
Waverly softens at Nicole’s expression, “It’s probably not that bad”, Nicole narrows her eyes at Waverly
Nicole slowly takes her arms away from the front of shirt, Waverly’s eyes read over Nicole’s shirt
“Jingle my bells”, Waverly covers her mouth to hold back her laughter
“Seriously Wave”, Nicole groans covering her face with a pillow
“Stop being a pussy, it’s funny”, Wynonna says moving to slap at Nicole’s bare leg
“Nicole, it’s not that bad. Here”, Waverly hands her a cookie, letting her hand linger on Nicole’s, “Come on, let's watch the movies”, Nicole nods placing the cookie in her mouth
Wynonna clapped, standing up to pick the first movie, “It’s my house, so I choose first”, Nicole moved over on the sofa, patting the spot next to her
Waverly mouthed, “You sure?”, Nicole smiles patting the spot again, Waverly sat down leaving enough distance between them that Wynonna wouldn’t become suspicious
“For our first movie, we shall watch Home Alone”, Wynonna says flopping down on the couch next to Waverly,
“Can I get some blankets? You did pick out shorts as part of my pajamas”, Nicole says, motioning for Wynonna to hand her the blankets
Wynonna tossed the blankets over to Nicole, Waverly helped spread them across the three of their laps, “Alright, shut up it’s starting”, Wynonna whines
Waverly felt a finger brush against the outside of her thigh, her eyes dart over Nicole whose staring straight ahead at the tv screen
Waverly feels Nicole’s fingertips tips move from the outside of her thigh, up to the top, drawing small patterns over her pajama pants
“I have to pee, be back”, Wynonna says, causing Waverly to startle, Nicole’s hand now resting flat on her thigh
Waverly waits till she hears the door close, before turning to Nicole, “What are you doing?”
Nicole just shrugs, “I wanted to touch you”, Waverly’s face heats up, “It's very distracting”
“Do you want me to stop?”, Nicole leans closer to Waverly
Waverly shakes her head, placing her hand under the blanket, and letting her fingers collide with Nicole’s
“What did I miss?”, Wynonna asks as she plops back down next to Waverly
“Nothing much”, Nicole replies keeping her hand firmly on Waverly’s thigh
Wynonna makes it halfway through the second movie before she falls asleep, “Wy”, Waverly nudges her sisters leg, but Wynonna doesn’t budge
“I think she’s out”, Nicole whispers, hand still stroking Waverly’s thigh
Waverly motions to the stairs, “Do you want?”, Waverly asks lowering her voice even further
Nicole nods, gently getting up from the couch careful not to wake Wynonna from her sleep. Waverly follows Nicole as she walks slowly up the steps
Nicole quietly opens Waverly’s door, “Sit, I have something for you”, Nicole says opening her backpack
Waverly sits on the edge of the bed, “What is it?”
Nicole pulls out a gift wrapped in snowflake wrapping paper, “It’s a christmas present silly”
Nicole puts the gift in Waverly’s lap, sitting down gently next to her, “Merry Christmas”
Waverly feels tears build, “You didn’t have to get me anything”
Nicole smiles, nudging Waverly’s shoulder with her own, “Just open it”
Waverly peels off the wrapping paper, a brown box lay in her lap, she peels the tape of the top, and breaks open the box, “I wasn’t sure what to get you, but I thought this would be something you could use”
“Nicole”, Waverly breathes out, pulling the camera out of the box
Waverly looks up from the camera, “I noticed you don’t have pictures in your room, so I thought this could help change that”, Nicole says nervously
“I can’t believe you got me a camera”, Waverly lets her fingers run over the buttons and lens, “This is too much Nicole”, Waverly moves to hand Nicole the camera
Nicole’s hand covers Waverly’s, stopping her movement, “I want you to have it, I’ve never experienced a family Christmas, the idea of giving gifts to someone you care about”
Nicole pauses, “Never really meant anything to me, but I care about you and Wynonna, so please keep it”
Waverly leans forward pressing a soft kiss to Nicole’s cheek, “Thank you, but I feel terrible for not getting you anything”
Nicole’s face softens, “Tonight was the best gift I could have asked for”, Waverly’s heart melts at Nicole’s words
“And I definitely can think of another gift I’d like”, Nicole takes the camera from Waverly’s hand, placing it on the nightstand, “Move back”
Waverly moves till her back hits the wall, Nicole climbs up the bed to reach Waverly, placing her arms on either side of Waverly
“What’s the gift? The one that you’d like”, Waverly stutters, with Nicole hovering over her
Nicole’s face inches down, letting her lips barely touch Waverly’s, “I’m sure you can figure it out”, Nicole husks
Waverly’s eyes flutter from Nicole’s eyes to her lips, leaning forward to kiss her. Waverly doesn’t think she’s ever going to get used to the softness of Nicole’s lips
Nicole hums into the kiss, letting one of her hands move from beside Waverly onto her neck, Waverly lets her hand rest low on Nicole’s backside as they kiss
Waverly widens her legs, letting Nicole’s thigh slot in between her legs, Nicole’s lips leave kisses from Waverly’s lips down to her neck
Waverly tightens her grab on Nicole’s ass, when she feels Nicole’s teeth nip at her skin
The feeling of Waverly’s hands on Nicole seems to urge her on, running her hand down Waverly’s side to the bottom of her shirt
Waverly uses her unoccupied hand to grip Nicole’s neck, pulling her away from her neck, “Kiss me”
Nicole kisses her softly, letting her tongue push slowly into Waverly’s mouth. Nicole’s hand grasps at the front of Waverly’s shirt
Waverly rocks Nicole forward into her as she’s pulling Nicole’s ass into her, Nicole groans, quickening the pace of her hips, Nicole’s hand slips under the end of Waverly’s shirt
Nicole’s hand strokes at the skin on Waverly’s hip above her pajama pants, “Nicole”
Waverly’s eyes are glued to Nicole’s hand under her shirt, “Shit, I’m sorry”, Nicole says pulling her hand out from under Waverly’s shirt
“No, it’s okay”, Waverly reassures, grabbing onto Nicole’s hand, “I just don’t know if I’m ready for no clothes on yet”, Waverly continues, ducking her head shyly
Nicole kisses Waverly’s forehead, “Don’t be embarrassed, I should have asked”
Waverly closes her eyes leaning into the touch, “It’s okay, I like it when you lose control a bit”, Nicole gives her a wide smile, before moving to lay beside Waverly
“I’ll remember that”, Nicole pulls Waverly into her chest, “But, I want to make sure you’re ready as well”
Waverly nods against Nicole’s chest, “We should go downstairs, in case Wynonna wakes up”, Nicole says
Waverly wants to protest, wanting to stay in Nicole’s arms for a little longer, “Yeah”, Waverly says instead
Waverly’s heart tugs slightly, as Nicole pulls away from Waverly, running a hand through her hair. Waverly desperately shoves the feeling aside, like she did in the store.
Nicole turns back to Waverly, giving her a half smile, “Merry Christmas Wave”
And Waverly feels the feeling boil right back to the surface again
Waverly smiles brightly ignoring the feeling in her chest, “Merry Christmas Nicole”
“You can touch me with slow hands,
Speed it up, baby, make me sweat”
Nicole calls Waverly two days after Christmas, “Waverly, I need your help”
Waverly’s mind panics thinking something has happened to Nicole, “Nicole, are you okay?”,
Waverly hears Nicole laugh, “Sorry, didn’t mean to scare you. I just need help with this math homework”
“You definitely should have started with that”, Waverly sighs, letting her racing heart calm down
“My bad, but would you like to come over and help me?”, Nicole asks sweetly,
“You have to come get me, but yes I’ll help you”, Waverly replies
“You’re the best”, Nicole says pausing for a moment, “And I’ll definitely repay you for this tutoring session”, Nicole’s rasps
Waverly’s cheeks flush, “You are such an ass”
“Maybe, but you like it”, Waverly knows Nicole is smirking on the other end of the phone
“I’ll see you soon”, Waverly says with a teasing tone
Waverly waits patiently in her room for Nicole’s car to pull into the driveway, after checking over her outfit once more she hears Nicole’s car pull into the driveway
Nicole greets her with a wide smile and a milkshake, “For you”
Waverly takes the milkshake gratefully, “Thank you”
The drive takes less than ten minutes and Waverly already finished her shake before they pulled into Nicole’s driveway
“Alright, so let me just start by saying, I’m horrible at math”, Nicole says once they settle down in Nicole’s room
“I’m sure you aren’t horrible”, Waverly picks up Nicole’s most recent test, eyes locking on the red D plus marked in the corner, “Okay, so we just need some improvement”
Nicole laughs, grabbing for her notebook, “I need more than just improvement”
“Well luckily you have me, not to brag but I’m pretty smart”, Waverly says, tossing her hair over her shoulder
“Cocky Waverly, I like”, Nicole smirks, placing her notebook down, reaching for Waverly’s hands
Waverly lightly swats Nicole’s hands away, “No, I came over here to help you with math”
Nicole pushes out her bottom lip, “But Waves”
“Nope, I will not fall for the pout and puppy eyes”, Waverly says placing Nicole’s notebook back in her lap
Nicole dramatically throws herself backwards on her bed, “What about after?”, Nicole asks batting her eyelashes
“Possibly, depends on how well you do”, Waver says shrugging her shoulders before tossing a pencil to Nicole
“Fine”, Nicole groans sitting up, looking down at her blank notebook,
Waverly smiles sitting down next to Nicole, “Let's get started”
Waverly notices Nicole starting to get annoyed after they finish the first ten problems, “I want to be done”
“Only a few more, then you don’t have to worry about it”, Waverly says looking down at the almost filled page
Nicole takes a deep breath, running her hand through her hair, “But there are so many other things we should be doing”, Nicole’s eyes flicker from Waverly’s lips back up to her eyes
“We should just finish, so we don’t have to worry about it later”, Waverly breathes out, as Nicole inches closer to her
Nicole places her hand on Waverly’s thigh, “Or”, Nicole pauses, “We could worry about it much later”
Waverly feels her stance fading, when Nicole moves her hand to tuck a piece of Waverly’s hair behind her ear, “Just for the record, your seducing will not always work”
Nicole smirks, moving her lips close to Waverly’s ear, “You sure about that?”, Nicole questions pressing a kiss to the side of Waverly’s head
“Very, very sure”, Waverly nearly moans out as Nicole’s
lips move to her neck
Waverly grabs Nicole’s notebook and tossing it on the floor, then pulling Nicole in for a kiss
Nicole quickly pushes Waverly down onto the bed, crawling on top of her, “I think it worked a little”
Waverly rolls her eyes, “No more talking”, Waverly leans up kissing Nicole, letting her tongue push into her mouth
Nicole’s thigh finds the familiar spot, between Waverly’s leg. Waverly tangles her hands into Nicole’s hair, holding her close against her lips
Waverly feels Nicole’s hand roam along her sides, careful to avoid touching Waverly’s skin under her shirt
Nicole’s lips follow the path from Waverly’s lips down to her neck sucking on the soft skin. Waverly’s hands loosen off Nicole’s hair, running down the front of Nicole
Waverly’s hands brush against the top of Nicole’s breasts, Nicole’s eyes dart to Waverly’s, “Waves”
Waverly swallows roughly, “Is this okay?”
Nicole nods, smiling, “Do you want me to show you?”
“Yes, but I want to keep my shirt on”, Waverly’s face reddens, moving her eyes off Nicole
“Don’t be embarrassed, if you’re comfortable with that, then that’s what we will do”, Nicole drags her fingers across Waverly’s jaw, waiting till her eyes meet hers
Waverly’s eyes look back at Nicole, “I’m going to kiss you, okay?”, Nicole asks
“Yeah”, Waverly sighs at the feeling of their lips meeting once more. Waverly is hyper aware of Nicole’s hands running up her sides
Nicole’s hands move in slightly, resting flat against her ribs, slightly under her breasts. Waverly kisses Nicole harder, tongues gently brushing against one another
Waverly feels Nicole’s fingers brush against the underwire of her bra, then move to palm Waverly’s breasts fully
Nicole's eyes never leave Waverly’s, “Are you okay?”
Waverly gasps as Nicole squeezes slightly at her breasts, “Yes”
Nicole leans down to take Waverly’s lips between hers, Nicole’s hand stay put on her chest
“Nicole”, Waverly moans out as Nicole pinches her nipple through the material of her shirt and bra
Waverly’s hand reaches up to palm at Nicole’s breasts through her shirt, Nicole’s movements falter for a moment, “Shit”
Nicole’s reaction makes Waverly shiver, Waverly’s hand squeezes again, letting her hand fully cup Nicole’s breast
“Baby”, Nicole moans out, and Waverly feels the pounding in her center intensify
Nicole quickens her movements, moving her lips to suck at Waverly’s neck. Waverly throws her head back letting Nicole reach more skin on her neck
Waverly’s hand moves from Nicole’s breast, down to her ass pushing Nicole’s thigh harder into Waverly
Nicole’s hand is still pinching at Waverly’s nipple, and Waverly’s body is telling her she needs more
“Harder”, Waverly whispers, letting her hand rest on top of Nicole’s
Nicole’s hand pinches even harder, and the air seems to get sucked out of Waverly’s lungs
Waverly’s hand keeps Nicole rocking steadily into her. Every part of Waverly’s body feels like it’s on fire
She can’t help letting out a loud moan, as Nicole’s thigh bumps faster against her center.
“Nicole, I need this off”, Waverly tugs at the bottom of Nicole’s shirt
Nicole puts her hand on Waverly’s, “I thought you said”
Waverly cuts her off, “I changed my mind”
“Waves, we can stop. I don’t want to pressure you”, Nicole says
Waverly shakes her head, pulling off her own top, “I want this”
Nicole eyes roam Waverly’s tan skin, “You’re beautiful”
Waverly suddenly feels nervous, the rush of confidence rushing away, “Wave, we can stop?”, Nicole’s voice is warm and caring
“I want to see you too”, Waverly says, Nicole presses a kiss to the top of Waverly’s chest, before peeling off her shirt
Waverly’s eyes widen as Nicole tosses her shirt on the floor, Nicole’s chest is flushed, Waverly's eyes landing on Nicole’s dark purple bra
Nicole leans down pressing her bare stomach into Waverly’s, the warmth of her skin heats Waverly’s body up again
Waverly’s hand runs down the soft skin of Nicole’s back, Nicole lets her hand find their way back to Waverly’s breast
There’s less of a barrier now without shirts, the cotton bra Waverly is wearing provides a thin layer between Waverly’s bare breast and Nicole’s hands
Nicole starts rocking against Waverly again, letting her hand pinch and squeeze again at Waverly’s breast
“My god”, Waverly cries out as Nicole starts to grind down against Waverly’s leg
“This okay?”, Nicole breathes, hips still pushing down on Waverly’s leg
“Mhm, keep going”, Waverly shifts her hands from Nicole’s ass to the front of her chest
Nicole’s eyes are shut as she keeps grinding on Waverly’s leg
Waverly feels something swell in her chest at the sight of Nicole like this
Nicole’s lips on the top of her breasts, pulls Waverly out of the thought, “So beautiful”, Nicole mumbles into her skin
Waverly feels the pressure in her stomach tighten, she wonders if Nicole is feeling the same, “Nic”
Nicole’s cheeks are flushed, small beads of sweat rest along her forehead, “Yes”
Waverly’s eyes linger on the way Nicole’s hips still move against her leg, and the knot in her stomach twists, “I think I’m close”
Nicole just smirks, connecting their lips once more, “Me too”, Waverly eyes widen, “Fuck”
Nicole’s hips drive faster into Waverly, “Come for me baby”
Waverly’s hips snap against Nicole’s thigh, fingernails digging into her back, Nicole’s hips don’t stop moving
“Waverly”, Nicole gasps, Waverly feels Nicole’s body stiffen on top of her
“Oh my god”, Waverly whispers as she watches Nicole’s body relax on top of her
Nicole looks down with a sly grin on her face, “Hi”, Waverly smiles back, pressing up to kiss her, “Hi”
“You okay”, Nicole asks climbing off her, moving to lay beside Waverly
“Very, you?”, Waverly responds
Nicole pulls Waverly into her chest, “Same”, Waverly lets her fingers brush against Nicole’s bare stomach
“Was that good?”, Waverly says shyly
“Waves, that was so good”, Nicole leans up looking down at Waverly slightly,
“I mean I didn’t know, if I could make you do that”, Waverly shyly answers
Nicole presses a kiss to Waverly’s forehead, “You need to have more confidence in yourself”, Nicole pauses kissing her forehead again, “Because that was fucking hot”
Waverly feels her eyes burn at the comment, “You make me feel good too”, Nicole smirks leaning into capture Waverly’s lips
Nicole’s phone blaring startles the both of them, “Sorry, one second”, Nicole answers the phone and Waverly can hear Wynonna’s voice on the other end
“Hey, Wy”, Nicole says nervously picking her shirt up off the floor, putting it over her head
Waverly suddenly feels exposed, eyes searching for her t-shirt, “Maybe she’s with Chrissy?”, Nicole hands Waverly her shirt with a smile
Waverly heart drops. Nicole doesn’t want Wynonna to know she’s with her.
“Yeah, I’ll meet you there”, Nicole ends the call, moving to sit down next to Waverly
Nicole reaches for Waverly’s hand, “I didn’t want her to get suspicious”
Waverly nods, “Of course, I understand”
Nicole brings Waverly’s hand to her lips pressing a kiss to the top of her hand, “You going to the New Year’s eve party?”, Nicole asks
Waverly shakes her head, “Nobody told me about it”
Nicole gives her a wide smile, “Come with me”
“Really?”, Waverly chews on her lower lip
“I want you to be my New Year’s kiss”, Nicole says eyes locking with Waverly’s
“Maybe, we could sneak off during the party as well”, Nicole says wiggling her eyebrows at Waverly
Waverly slaps her shoulder, ignoring the butterflies in her stomach, “I hate you”, Waverly says jokingly
“No, you don’t”, Nicole shrugs getting up off the bed, Waverly watches her move towards the door, turning back once more to look at Waverly
Waverly’s breath catches in her throat when Nicole winks at her. And Waverly doesn’t think she could hate her if she tried.
