Work Text:
It was another tranquil morning in the Williams’ house. Dina and Ellie went about their usual routine getting ready for the day. They were happy, their life was peaceful, and everything was as it should be. Or so they thought, until Ellie noticed something unusual.
”Babe?” Ellie asked as she looked up through the mirror at her wife, who was fixing up her hair beside her. “Why is my toothbrush wet?”
”Mine was all old and bristly,” Dina said, finishing her hair and walking out of the bathroom toward the closet. “So, I used yours.”
Ellie’s eyes widened in horror.
“You used my toothbrush?!” she exclaimed, holding up the offending item as she followed Dina out of the bathroom.
“Yeah, what’s the big deal?” Dina said, holding her arms out as if she hadn’t just committed a heinous crime.
“It’s fuckin’ gross is the big deal!”
Dina folded her arms and leveled a challenging stare. “Ellie, you have your tongue in my mouth almost as often as you don’t. What’s the difference?”
“I don’t use my tongue to scrape gunk off your teeth!”
”So, you’ll lick my ass, but you won’t use a toothbrush that I’ve used?” Dina retorted with a cocked eyebrow.
“You don’t moan when I brush my teeth,” Ellie shot back with a smug smirk. Then she cocked her head suggestively and looked Dina up and down. “That’s a pretty big motivator.”
“Okay, keep it in your pants, hotshot. And you’re making a much bigger deal out of this than it needs to be,” Dina said as she picked up her jacket and started out of the bedroom.
“Well, this is your toothbrush now then! I’ll go pick up a new one after work!” Ellie called after her.
Dina came back to stand in the doorway, scrunching her face in disbelief. “So, you’re really gonna go to work without brushing your teeth because your wife used your toothbrush?!”
“I don’t really have a choice, do I?” Ellie said, brows high, waving the toothbrush around.
“You can not be serious right now.”
“Alright, then kiss me. Right now,” Ellie said as she folded her arms in challenge.
“No, you haven’t brushed your teeth!”
“Exactly! That’s the difference! See, I have morning breath right now. If I brush my teeth, the morning breath goes away. So, where do you think it goes?” Ellie paused to wait for an answer, but Dina just continued to stare at her like she’d just grown a tail. “On the toothbrush!” she exclaimed, satisfied that she had won the argument as she smugly turned back to the bathroom to put her toothbrush on Dina’s side of the sink.
Dina rolled her eyes, then strode up to Ellie, turned her around, and kissed her passionately.
“There. Happy?”
Ellie blinked a few times, requiring several moments to come out of her daze. She certainly wasn’t unhappy after that, but she still had a point to prove.
“Now you’re just double gross.”
“Ugh, you're ridiculous.” Dina rolled her eyes again, picked up the toothbrush, and made solid eye contact with Ellie as she licked the back of it with a mocking, “Nyahh.” Then she slapped it back down on the counter and headed out the door. "Love you! Have a good day at work, stank-breath!"
Ellie just grumbled as she squeezed some toothpaste onto her finger and decided she’d better see if the commissary would let her take more than one replacement. Maybe explaining that her wife was a depraved heathen might get her an extra one.
