Scylla hadn’t always made the best decisions in her life, in fact some would say she rarely made the best decisions. But to her, one of the best decisions she made in her life, aside from allowing herself to be in an amazing relationship with two incredible girls, was investing in a camera.
To many buying a camera would seem like such a mundane investment, but for Scylla it was life changing. For so long her life had been so full of pain, anger, and resentment that it sometimes felt like she had never had even a single moment of happiness. It had been Tally’s idea to buy one, a way to physically capture those good times so should she ever fall back into a dark place she could hold that memory and remember that things weren’t always so bad.
Today she was using it to capture something truly beautiful, her two girlfriends engaged in a sweet moment of intimacy. Abigail and Raelle stood in the middle of an open field on the outskirts of Fort Salem, alone aside from Scylla who currently stood a few feet away. Abigail was clad in a loose fitting blue crop-top that left much of her muscular upper body exposed. Raelle wore a simple white t-shirt that was tucked into her gray army pants.
The pair were tucked into each other, each with an arm wrapped around the other's waist while their other hands were laced loosely together. The height difference between the two of them was displayed beautifully, with Raelle’s forehead being exactly level with Abigail’s lips giving the Bellweather girl a perfect opportunity to give it a gentle kiss.
As Raelle smiled and leaned into Abigail’s embrace,Scylla snapped a photo, grinning broadly as a stretch of film ejected itself for her to take. She gave it a few good shakes and then waited for the image to clear. She had perfectly captured the exact moment Abigail’s lips had found Rae’s forehead, she had captured the warm smile’s on both their faces and the gentleness with how they touched each other.
As she tucked the photo away she watched as her two significant others deepened their embrace. Raelle slowly, almost teasingly lifted her hands and wrapped them around the back of Abigail’s neck. Abigail smiled as Raelle lifted herself onto her tiptoes so their foreheads touched for a soul kiss, moving her hands to the small girl’s waist to hold her steady.
Scylla quickly snapped another photo, resisting the urge to squeal from all the cuteness for fear of ruining the moment.She snapped another picture as Abs bent down slightly, deeping the forehead touch and nuzzling her nose against the blonde Fixer’s. Both girls laughed sweetly at the little display of affection. Scylla herself smiled in adoration, loving how these usually tough, bad badass girls could be such sappy love birds when they were alone.
Abigail whispered something to Raelle that Scylla couldn’t catch before looping her strong arms around her waist and lifting her up off her feet. The little fixer giggled as she buried her face in the Bellweather girl’s neck, her legs dangling limply off the ground. The sudden display of strength untucked Raelle’s T-shirt free of her pants, exposing more of her pale skin and further enhancing the difference in skin tones on display.
For several long moments they barely moved, simply savoring the feeling of each other’s bodies squeezed together and the warmth of the summer evening sun. Abigail suddenly began to twirl in a circle, sending Raelle into more giggles as her legs flew out around them, arms wrapping around her girlfriend’s neck for dear life. Scylla quickly snapped a series of photos, hoping to capture the series of events that soon brought the entangled pair tumbling to the ground.
Fearing that one of them may have gotten hurt, Scylla ran over to where Abigail and Raelle lay, relieved as she heard more fits of happy laughter coming from the tangled mess of limbs. She found Raelle on her back, holding Abigail close as they rolled on the ground like playful wolf pups. Abigail kept sneaking in kisses to Raelle’s face and neck between fits of laughter as if the fall had never happened.
The pair seemed content to stay that way until they noticed Scylla running up to them. “We’re okay Scyl, I think Abs let us fall on purpose!” Raelle accused as she propped herself up on an elbow, the other arm continued to hang loose around Abigail’s neck. “I thought it would be cute!” Abigail retorted “Isn’t that how they do it in all the romance films?”
Scylla laughed as she held out a hand to help Abigail up “Have I ever told you how much I love how sappy you get? Despite being a super badass Bellweather?” Abigail accepted the hand “If there is one thing us Bellweathers are good at aside from good soldiers it’s being the best romantic partners” As if to emphasize her point Abigail leaned in and gave Scylla a kiss full on the lips as the little necro helped her up, smirking as she felt her breath catch in her throat from the little surprise.
The pair helped Raelle to her feet then proceeded to help dust off her now dirt caked shirt, much to the embarrassment of the young Fixer. Scylla then showed the other two girls the pictures she had taken, gushing over their cuteness as they all picked out their favorites. Raelle kept trying to hide her face in embarrassment while Abigail teased her and sharing in the gushing.
“Oh goddess” Raelle groaned behind the hand covering her face “I think I’m in love with you Abigail” Abigail burst up laughing as Scylla threw an arm around Raelle and gave her a teasing kiss on the cheek “Of course you, lover boy!”
After teasing the poor girl for a couple more minutes Abigail suddenly took the camera from Scylla and handed it to Raelle “Come on Shitbird, I think it’s time for me and little miss necro here to have our own photoshoot” She said as she looped her fingers into Scylla’s belt loops and pulled the girl to her. “As long as this means I get one with her next!” Raelle quipped as she backed up to get a good view
“Only if the pics look nice!”Abigail retorted before pulling the brunette into a deep, tongue twirling kiss
