Work Text:
It starts slow. Helen shows up with wine, both women get drunk and watch crappy movies, Kamilah wakes up and quickly gets the hell out.
It doesn't happen again until after the case is solved. One night, Helen shows up with a bottle of wine. Then the next night. Drink, rinse, repeat.
And then it changes. Halfway through the bottle and the shitty romcom she kisses you, or you kiss her. And it makes sense. Kamilah has always been into women and with the way she and Helen fit together, it was only a matter of time.
Helen isn’t so certain in the morning. They didn't do more than some harmless making out, but she's still apprehensive. Probably about Gabe.
Kamilah was alone in the building again. Maybe it's just a sign.
She isn't even halfway back home before Helen's contact shows up on her phone. Helen wants to make it work. Kamilah doesn't have to think before saying "yes".
