Work Text:
The first thing Raelle noticed as she boarded the bus was the single bedroom in the very back. She grimaced at the reminder that there would be almost zero privacy while traveling with the group and the room seemed to be the only form of privacy that any of them would be able to have on however long this journey would be. She wasn’t entirely sure why Nicte included it, but she had a suspicion that she knew what she was getting into with two young, hormonally charged couples. Raelle wasn’t about to complain.
After kissing Scylla and being seconds away from reenacting their first time against the bus in front of everyone, she realized just how desperate she was to have her sort-of girlfriend again. The last time she had touched her intimately was before the wedding so it wasn’t a surprise just how ready she was to have Scylla naked and writhing beneath her after so long.
Raelle glanced over to Scylla, hoping that she still felt just as insatiable about her and almost groaned out loud at the hungry look Scylla gave her- the same one given when she knew Raelle was about to rip her clothes off. Without any hesitation or the need to voice her desires, she grabbed Scylla’s hand and made a beeline for their one safe haven, hoping that the others entering the bus wouldn’t notice her haste.
As they approached the open door, she licked her lips thinking of all the things she wanted to do to the siren that’d been invading her dreams since they met. Sure they had a lot they needed to talk about, but that could happen after they were “recharged.”
“What do you think you’re doing?” Abigail's voice rang out from the front of the bus.
Raelle paused in her tracks and sighed. So much for subtlety. “Nothing, Abigail. We’re just going to talk.” Raelle responded.
Abigail quickly made her way toward them, Adil in tow, until she was right behind Scylla. “Why can’t you do that out here?”
Raelle shrugged, feigning ignorance.
“We have a lot to talk about.”
“Right, because the two of you were going to “talk” in there?” Abigail asked, eyebrows raised in disbelief. “If you're just talking then Adil and I should get the room instead.”
The two girls stared at each other, neither one willing to back down. Raelle would be lying if she said she didn’t find the taller girl at least a little bit intimidating, but she was used to Abigail’s antics and Goddess help her if she was going to stand in the way of a naked Scylla.
Their bodies lurched as the bus started moving, a reminder that they were fugitives on the run with the United States military and the Camarilla hunting them. Well, it should have been a reminder that there were bigger things to worry about than getting laid, but who could blame them for their lack of caring when a bedroom was on the line?
“Fine. I want to have sex.” Raelle finally relented. “And we called dibs on it so you’ll have to wait your turn.” She went for the door, but was yanked back as Abigail reached past Scylla to grasp her wrist.
“Oh no you don’t. Adil and I haven’t had a chance to reconnect in a long time so we should get the room first.”
“If we’re going by who hasn’t had sex in the longest, then Raelle and I should get it.” Scylla chimed in.
“Oh yeah? And who’s fault is that?” Abigail challenged.
Raelle a little more than lightly shoved the Bellweather away. “Back off Abigail.”
“Well maybe if your girlfriend didn’t-”
“Hey, let’s move past this for now.” Adil tried to calm her down a bit before things got out of hand.“But... maybe we can flip a coin for it?”
Raelle rolled her eyes. “Fuck this. Scylla and I get it first.” She turned around only to find the door shut. “What the hell?” She jiggled the handle a few times to find it locked too. “Who’s in there?”
A voice cleared from the front, gaining the attention of the two horny couples.
“While you all were working out who got to screw first, Khalida took the room for herself.” Tally said, shaking her head. “She said her rest was more important than your squabbles.”
Scylla sighed dejectedly and ushered an incredulous Raelle into the seats next to the room.
“I hope you’re happy, Shitbird.” Abigail glared at them.
“Yeah? Well neither of us are getting any now.”
“If we’re attacked and killed because we’re not recharged, it’s on you.” With one final scowl, Abigail grabbed Adil’s hand and led them away.
Raelle flipped her off as Abigail and Adil sat a few seats in front closer to Tally and Nicte. She then slumped down in her seat, closing her eyes in defeat and pent up frustration.
“I’m sorry, Scylla.” She apologized. “I was hoping we could have some privacy.”
“While I would love to have you all to myself, I’m just happy we’re finally together.” Scylla put her hand high on Raelle’s thigh and briefly glanced around them. “And we do have a little bit of privacy back here...”
Raelle smiled at Scylla’s suggestion and how easy it was to fall back into their usual banter despite being apart for so long.
“Oh yeah? What’s a girl to do when she’s propositioned by a beautiful lady.” Raelle flirted back. She cupped Scylla’s face in her hands and slowly brought their faces together. “At least we can still...”
The bedroom door opened before their lips could meet and Raelle startled back, slamming the back of her head against the window. She rubbed the bump that was now forming as Khalida’s head popped out from inside the room.
“Don’t think about doing that when I’m right here. These walls are thinner than they look.” She stared at Raelle for an uncomfortable amount of time before closing the door and locking it with an audible click, effectively destroying any hope Raelle could have had at getting some alone time with Scylla.
