Kyra & Marina & Sunny

[weewilywilkie]

Kyra lets herself relax all the way into Marina. And Sunny. Her eyes close, but she's not sleeping. It would just be too much to have them open right now. This is the first time she's felt safe in a long time. She's not out of it enough to not hear the request, though. On an ordinary day, it would send a pang of guilt through her for keeping Marina at an arm's length for so long. But now, her eyes just blink open, lazy.

"You want to be girlfriends?" She sounds awed. She is, in fact. This perfect girl? She couldn't be this lucky. "Girlfriends with me?"

Guilt rushes Marina at Kyra's dazed tone, and she feels anything but perfect. Too far. Sunny might be keeping Marina's hands from roaming where they shouldn't, but hearts were what was really at danger. Kyra acting like she's the world is intoxicating, from the tone of her voice to the weight of her body against her - fully trusting, loving. Two hearts in perfect sync.

But it's all an illusion. This might be pulling poorly hidden truths to the surface for Marina, but she can't reasonably expect the same of Kyra, not with the remnants of a shadow still swimming in her head. She shifts awkwardly against the sofa arm, words stumbling out at a halting pace. "Hey. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have. You're really fuzzy right now."

Kyra tries to shift up, and gather some of her wits back about her. The thrumming in the back of her brain tells her that's appropriate. She's said too much. Or something. There's a magnet drawing her in, but she knows she needs to pull back. So she does, a little, taking one palm and rubbing it over her eyes, kneading sense back into her brain. She shouldn't let this affect her. She should've just gone to sleep.

"No...it's...no." Her words stumble out, halting. "I...come back to that. Later."

Marina relaxes bit by bit as she senses Kyra, the Kyra she knows, fighting back for control. She's not sure what happened, but she could sense that she'd lost her, for a moment there. This is better, even if it's a reminder that the reality is different from the reverie.

"Chalk that up to crazy new ideas that need a pin in them," she agrees with an uneasy, breathless laugh. The danger is past, for now. She tries to focus on that. To settle down again. No need to ruin an incandescent dream over one slip of the heart. She presses her lips against Kyra's hair once more, quickly, stealing what she shouldn't. "It's late. You should rest. I'll be.. quiet." Selfish. Selfish. Selfish.
