Work Text:
Agatha didn’t think being possessive and most importantly careful about what belonged to her was the exact same thing as being jealous.
That said she felt like her jaw was going to crack from how hard she was clenching it and the reason was that Rio, her dear Rio was way to fucking talkative with Nicky’s new preschool teacher and yes, the teacher was objectively hot, with her perfect smile, green eyes and blonde hair.
Yes
Agatha could objectively see why all the dads who were usually so “busy” were currently making a damn line with the petty excuse of “needing to meet Lilia’s replacement”.
Rio and her had chosen this preschool because Agatha’s friend -Lilia-was going to be their son’s teacher, also Wanda chose that school for the twins, so it was perfect.
It was, for one month.
One month in to the school year, dear Lilia decided to go on a three months retire to fucking Italy. Although before she left, she assured both Agatha and Rio that their little boy was in good hands with Nat, the new teacher.
And now here they were, Rio talking and being very friendly with the new hot teacher. While Agatha held a very sleepy Nicky. Because at that moment, he was the only thing stopping her from going where her wife was and kiss her right there in front of blondie.
But no.
Agatha wouldn’t do that. She was a mother now and a much mature woman than she was in college, so not doing that.
Agatha watched closely as Rio finally said her goodbyes and head over where her and Nicky were.
“Ready to get in buddy?” Rio told their son while taking him from Agatha’s hands to give him a kiss in the cheek before putting him down.
“
I don’t know.” Nicky answered shyly while rubbing his little eyes.
Rio crouched with a frown on her face.
“Why baby? What’s wrong?”.
“Well, what if the new teacher doesn’t like me? What if I don’t like her?”
“Baby she will like you, of course she will. How could she not?” Rio told him while fixing his clothes a little bit.
Agatha took Nicky’s chin, so he was looking at her, so she was sure he 100% listened to what she was going to say.
“You are the most amazing kid and if you are polite and nice like you know how to be then she will like you, baby. You’ll see,” She pulled him in for a hug. “It’s impossible not to love you.”
He looked up and gave her a smile.
“And don’t worry bud, you’ll like her just fine, I liked her! So you’re-” Rio stopped talking when she took one glance at Agatha, hoping to find softness in her face or something less, mortifying.
“Ok! Honey, say bye to your mami and go inside, we’ll see you later.” Agatha gave her son a kiss on his head and watched him say goodbye to his mami, running to his classroom as soon as Rio gave him a kiss.
Agatha turned around and quickly started walking to the exit, she heard Rio running to catch up with her.
“Mi vida, would you tell me what’s wrong?” Rio asked with a smug look on her face.
“Did you have a nice talk with the teacher? God I can not understand why everyone is obsessed with her. I mean,” She scoffed looking back and signaling the line of dads, “Look at them, practically drooling and making a fucking line only to, what? Take a closer look? Throw her some awful flirty dad jokes?” Agatha rolled her eyes and made a point of not looking at Rio and resumed her stride towards their car. “They are idiots, she’s not even into them, I can smell the lesbianism from a mile away.”
She arrived to the car but didn’t get in, waiting for Rio, because her wife – the gentleman – always opened the door for her and waited until she was inside to close it.
When Rio got into the driver seat, she just glanced at her with a sly smile on her face.
A very gorgeous, handsome face.
No, she wasn’t going to get distracted by the beauty of her wife.
No.
She wouldn’t look at her then.
Yes, that was a better idea. Smart.
But Rio kept looking at her and didn’t say anything until she started the engine.
“She’s bisexual.” She said it with such a casual tone, that Agatha had to break her own rule and turn around to look at her.
“What? And? So?” Agatha asked in such an exasperated tone that apparently amused the fuck out of Rio because she had the audacity to laugh.
She reached for Agatha’s hand and gave it a kiss.
Agatha allowed it because both of them had learned to cherish and take any opportunity of getting a kiss from each other.
It was, as Rio so romantically said one day after being apart for moths ‘A privilege to be able to kiss her every moment she can’, so corny. And if Agatha’s eyes filled with tears because she missed her so bad, that’s no one business but hers and rio’s.
So yes, she allowed Rio to kiss her hand. But her face, marked with a deep scowl and a clenched jaw, didn’t change.
Ok maybe it did. Just a little bit.
Her wife put their interlinked hands on her lap as she kept her eyes on the road.
“Mi amor, you want to know what I Iearned about the new teacher today?”
The audacity of this woman.
Agatha made sure to answer with the fakest voice she could muster. “Sure Rio, tell me what the fuck did blondie told ya’.”
Rio, again, just laughed. And then immediately saw that it was a mistake because Agatha was retracting her hand.
“Ok, ok. I’m sorry baby, I’ll stop laughing.”
“There is not one single thing about any of this that is funny”
“Yes, there is,” Rio took a glance at her with that shit-eating grin of hers. “You my love, are jealous.” She quickly gave a kiss to her hand again. Smart.
Agatha wasn’t jealous.
Agatha was being cautious. Even though that blondie wasn’t even a damn threat. Not in the slightest.
So, the only thing she could do when Rio said that nonsense was laugh. Because it was the most stupid thing she heard all morning. “I am fucking not.”
“Sure baby”
Agatha scoffed and finally turned fully to look at her.
“Well?” Agatha asked, already very exasperated.
Rio shrugged like the asshole she was. “Well, what?” She answered innocently.
“What the fuck did you learned about the teacher Rio?” Agatha asked her with the calmest tone she could voice.
“She wears a pin of the bisexual flag, and when I mentioned my wife and I,” She stopped and slightly turned to look at Agatha in the eye while poking her tongue in her cheek.
“What Rio? You and your wife, what? You and your wife are looking for a third and she’s perfect for it or what?” Agatha asked expectantly and not calm anymore.
Rio, just barked out a laugh. “God, I love you-”
“Yes, me too. Now talk.”
“I mentioned that we are friends with Wanda and she blushed, baby. She flushed like so bad, it was so funny. And then she very casually mentioned the twins dad, referring to him as Wanda’s husband. So, me with my great people-reading skills-”
“If she was red as a tomato, I wouldn’t count it as people reading skills, Rio.” Agatha said rolling her eyes.
“I have great interpersonal skills” Rio told her very serious.
Agatha had to roll her eyes once again. “Ok, whatever. Go on.”
“I told her, very casually, that Wanda is single, that she is very much over with men and looking for something serious.” Rio told her while straightening her back and sounding very proud of herself.
Agatha just looked at her with a blank look on her face and didn’t answer her wife, because she knew her silence and her expression had already said everything. But Rio was just so happy and pleased with herself she didn’t even notice.
They were finally in the parking lot of their work.
Rio parked the car and got out of it not looking at her once, still very proud and happy with herself.
Rio opened the door to Agatha and finally looked at her. Her proud expression quickly changed to total confusion.
“What?” Rio asked her a little bit offended and confused with Agatha’s reaction.
“Now why would you say she’s looking for something serious Rio, you’ll make her look desperate.”
Rio just shrugged and once again looked so, so proud of herself.
“Well, I thought it was very helpful.” Rio said as she took out their bags from the back seat.
“To who?” With every passing minute Agatha's anger started to dissipate just by looking at Rio.
“To them.” Her wife answered her as if it was the most obvious thing.
God she was an idiot, Agatha loved her so much.
They started to walk into the building. Rio carrying both their bags and still holding Agatha’s hand.
“Ok well I think I did them a huge favor” Rio said matter-of-factly.
Agatha was no longer annoyed, the bitter feeling of earlier had dissipated and turned into something sweet and warm. She could never stay mad at Rio for longer than 30 minutes.
“Yeah, we’ll see about that baby”
“Oh, so you are not mad anymore?” Rio told her with a knowing smile.
“I don’t know what you mean.” Agatha intended to answer sure and very casual, but she was smiling and couldn’t help to stop looking at Rio’s handsome face.
They walked into the building and stopped right at the entrance ready to part ways for work.
They both worked in a research company; Rio’s area was focused in plants and animals, Agatha’s was focused in historical and anthropological aspects. That meant that sadly, they worked in opposite extremes of the building. So in the main hallway of the building is where they parted ways.
“I literally only have eyes just for you, and heart, and mind, and-.” Rio was cut by Agatha with a quick kiss in the lips.
“That better be right.” Agatha told her before kissing her quickly once again.
Rio just smiled at her like an idiot and handed Agatha her bag.
Agatha was probably smiling like a total idiot as well in the middle of her and Rio’s workplace but fuck it. She hoped that the egocentric homophobic dick from tech saw them, so he had his day ruined or whatever the fuck he said every time he was around the gays and thems of the company.
“Have a nice day, baby,” Agatha said while pointing Rio a finger. “And don’t get to talkative again.”
“Whatever you say, mi vida.” Rio watched Agatha go and waited until she was out of view to leave, like she always did.
