Work Text:
Scar and Pearl sit in Pearl’s base.
The two partners sit on Pearl’s bed.
Scar sits behind the moth hybrid, gently brushing out her hair.
It’s still a little wet from her shower, but not as wet as Scar’s (due to the fact she took her shower first).
Once her hair has been thoroughly brushed out, Scar braids it into one long braid at the base of her neck.
When he is done, he hands her the brush and turns around.
Pearl starts to gently comb through his long brown hair.
He’s been growing it out longer than normal this season.
Of course the elf hybrid always had long hair, but he liked how it looked, longer for this season.
“So, did you do anything interesting today Scar?” Pearl asks, carefully brushing out a knot in Scar’s hair.
“Oh, nothing much.” Scar says, closing his emerald eyes, “Just got a lot of baking done.”
“Is that so?” She asks and Scar hums in response, “So do I get some cookies?” Pearl asks.
“Maybe.” Scar says, a grin in his voice.
Pearl roles her eyes, setting the brush down, starting to braid Scar’s hair.
“Can I put flowers in your hair tomorrow?" Pearl asks, her long, slender fingers skilfully braiding his hair.
“Of course!” Scar says, “I love it when you do that.”
Pearl nods (even though he can’t see that), tying off his braid at the base of his hair.
Pearl slips out of her bed, setting her brush down on her dresser before climbing back into bed.
Scar has moved under the blankets, laying on his side.
Pearl climbs in next to him, yawning.
Scar reaches out, brushing some stray hairs from her face, smiling at her.
Pearl smiles back, cupping his cheek before pulling him in for a feather light kiss.
When they pull away, the moth hybrid closes her eyes, snuggling up against her boyfriend's chest, “I love you.” she says into his scitties.
“I love you too Pearl.” Scar says, gently brushing his finger tips through the hair at the back of her head, closing his own eyes and relaxing.
