Bive sat hunched over at her desk, trying to think
Usually, she would have solved a case or come up with a new theory by now. But nope. Nothing came to mind. Bive groaned in frustration, holding her head in her hand as she stared at her papers, scribbles that were barely even readable scrawled across them.
"Hey... You ok?" bive jolted up from her desk and pointed her pen at the possible intruder to defend herself, only to realize that it was just her girlfriend, split.
"O-oh, hi split" bive looked back at her, relieved. "you scared the living shit out of me" bive chuckled. "Oh! Sorry!" Split laughed softly. God, she loved split's laugh. "I was just going to ask if you were ok" bive tilted her head to one side like a curious puppy, staring up at the fruit-taur with confusion "what do you mean by that?"
An expression of concern crossed split's face as she entered the room, sitting on bive's bed. Well, not exactly a bed, just a mattress on the floor. "Well, you've been sitting at your desk all day and you haven't gotten up once, even to use the bathroom or to get coffee." bive looked back at her desk filled with papers, then back at split.
"Sorry it's just-" bive started out, pausing for a moment "it's just that I've been having trouble thinking lately" split looked at bive in confusion "what do you mean?" Bive looked back at her notes sighing. "Like, every time I get close to solving a case or coming up with a new theory recently, my mind just kind of blanks."
An idea formed in split's head as she smiled softly, crossing over to bive and resting her tender hand on bive's shoulder.
"Why don't we take a break, ok bivey? You need the rest." bive looked from her papers and back at split, trying to decide if she should take split's advice or not.
Bive eventually gave in, standing up from her chair and popping her back, groaning. "Ouuugggh, I've been sitting wayyy to long." Split chuckled softly as bive rolled her shoulders forward and back. "Sooo, is that a yes?" Split asked, reaching out her hand to bive. Bive took split's hand "yeah, let's go"
Split led bive to the living room and sat her down on the couch, sitting down beside her as she wrapped the blanket around bive's body. Bive seemed to purr happily at the sensation, making split giggle a little before nuzzling into the crook of bive's neck
"You need anything?" Split asked, wrapping her arms around bive in a tight hug. Bive thought for a moment."I could go for a cup of coffee" bive replied, leaning her head on top of split's
Split smiled softly, kissing bive on the cheek before getting up to Go make bive a cup of coffee.
Split knew exactly how bive liked her coffee. straight black with two scoops of brown sugar. Split turned on the coffee machine, letting the smell of fresh coffee invade her nose as the coffee poured into the coffee pot. Split took the coffee pot from the machine afterwards and grabbed bive's favorite mug out of the cabinet, pouring the coffee in slowly to be sure she wouldn't spill any. Split grabbed the container of brown sugar and opened the lid, taking a spoon and scooping two spoonfuls of the sugar into the coffee.
Split trotted back over to the couch, placing bive's coffee on the coffee table in front of her. Split sat down beside bive, leaning up against her as bive took a sip of her coffee.
"Thank you love" bive whispered, leaning against split as she took another sip of coffee.
Split smiles softly, nuzzling bive's shoulder with her face "You're welcome bivey"
Bive drank the rest of her coffee, cuddling happily with split on the couch
"Do you need anything else bivey-" split cut off, looking over to bive's sleeping figure leaning up against her. Split chuckled softly, leaning up against bive and wrapping the blanket around the both of them
"Good night bivey" split whispered, kissing bive on the forehead as she felt herself start to drift off as well
"Sweet dreams"
