Work Text:
***
It was dark night outside. Someone was returning from work, and someone was already getting ready for bed. Someone was walking these dark streets, trying to find solace in this silence. Someone was ruffled by insomnia, preventing them from closing their eyes and falling asleep.
In one of the houses, on the second floor, the light in the window has not yet gone out. It seems that this was the same person with insomnia, or rather, none other than Amelia Watson.
The detective usually works late and goes straight to bed, but today was an easy day, so she decided to write a case report that she wanted to postpone until later. This report was followed by another, then again, and finally, all the work was over. But she still didn't feel like sleeping, so she decided to go down to the kitchen to make herself some tea.
She did it quietly and carefully, because the walls in the house are very thin, and behind one of them her girlfriend Ninomae Ina'nis is sleeping. Ina doesn't work late like Amelia, but she has enough sitting at home to sleep soundly late at night.
As she descended to the first floor, she almost tripped over Bubba, who was sleeping peacefully in the middle of the stairs. Swearing to herself because of her sloppiness, Amelia finally reached the place she needed and prepared to make tea for herself.
Finally, after a few minutes, she had a cup of hot tea in her hand. She puts the end of the cup to her lips as she takes a sip. Something is heard behind her, but she ignores it, citing that it might be Bubba. But when thin arms wrap around her, and her nose is pressed into her shoulder blades, Amelia almost drops the cup, managing to grab it with her other hand.
"Ina, you scared me!" Amelia catches her breath as she feels the priestess chuckle at her back. "Why are you here? I thought you were sleeping."
"Without you, the bed is uncomfortable and cold." Ina answers her softly, clinging even tighter to Amelia's body, which is too warm to pull away from her. "Why aren't you in bed, Ame?"
"Insomnia." Amelia said before putting the vup down on the table and turning to the purple haired one. Before Ina could lift her head, the detective pulled her by the head to her chest, placing her nose on the top of the priestess's head.
"And how long will you stay awake?" Ina mumbled into her chest, startling as the blonde kissed her on the back of her head and burrowed into it again.
"I don't know, definitely not in the next two hours." Amelia replied, inhaling her favorite scent of lavender, which became something more to her after their years of relationship. "Can you go to sleep? When I finish my tea, I will join you."
Ina said nothing, other than placing her hands behind the detective's back and nuzzling into the crook of her neck. With this action, Amelia realized that the priestess would not leave her, so she simply turned back, taking the cup in her hand again.
"How was your day, Ina?" Asks Amelia quite quietly, but so that she can hear her. She feels Ina huddle in place, looking for a normal angle to rest her head on the detective's shoulder.
"Without you, it was boring and terrible." The priestess answers, receiving a melodic chuckle in her direction. "It's not funny, without you it was empty, no one could hug me all day!"
"I gave you enough kisses this morning and even more than usual." Amelia laughs, but then her laugh is cut off as she takes another sip. "To be honest... I thought about you all the time while sitting in a boring office."
"Yes? And what exactly was my detective thinking when she introduced me?" With a hint of a smirk, Ina says, pinching Amelia's thigh. The detective screams softly, placing her hand on Ina's hand.
"You know, I won't tell you." Amelia answers, hearing a startled sigh in response. Ina pinches her thigh again, this time on purpose, to which Amelia just rolls her eyes as she puts her cup into the sink. "That's it, my beauty, I can give you those hugs that you missed this morning."
"Finally!" Ina speaks softly and triumphantly, before turning the detective by the shoulder towards her and kissing her. "And also I will receive kisses today, which I did not have enough in the morning."
"Even so?"
Amelia speaks into the priestess's lips, swapping them so she can pin her down on the table. Now Ina is sitting on the table, succumbing to the dominance of Amelia, who begins to run her hands over the naked parts of the priestess's body.
"Then I will fulfill all my thoughts that came to my mind thinking of you."
