PROM: Tell Me Your Fantasy

[Devyn Solway]

Devyn was surprised that here she was again, this time as a Senior at Prom and here with her best friend Vera. Granted, could she really call the girl her best friend anymore? Well, yes. They were still best friends and possibly something a little more. Devyn was going to make sure that they were a little more than just best friends by the time the night ended. She was not going to hesitate, not going to just wait it out, and just ride things out while they were good.

Devyn planned to give it one hundred percent from the start; okay like ninety percent because she was still terrified of the whole idea. Vera had picked out her outfit and it was a pretty good one, that went well with Vera's in her opinion. All of it was just clothing at the end of the day, so it was not that big of a deal to Devyn really. That and she didn't plan on Vera being in them for long when they would leave Prom. They had already agreed that they were not going to stay the whole time, just enough for Vera to sort of do her job, have some fun with others that went to prom as well, and really they would play it by ear.

Devyn had mainly been hanging out anywhere there were shadows for her to just feel comfortable in to mainly avoiding being spotted by Zoe. She would not mind seeing the girl by herself, but she knew Zoe would have come to prom with Alice and she could not see the two of them together...well anywhere. It didn't matter that it was prom; she still could not see Zoe with someone else. "Ready for more of Frank's spiked punch?" Devyn asked as she spotted Vera moving over towards her, probably having gotten done talking to someone. She held the punch cup out to Vera, green eyes looking all up, down, and pretty much all over Vera.

For the most part, Vera wasn't exactly all that thrilled to be at prom. Usually after High School, that was it. Done. No more. But with Bellefonte housing all ages, it wasn't as easy to get away from and especially with being a security intern. Sure, there were chaperons and the chaperons had to watch over the students, but it was security's job to watch over everyone and everything. She even wondered if Rox had to go along with it as well.

Well. There were still a few things that Vera had to look forward to. Like the music, drinks, food, getting to witness everyone's looks, and then there was Devyn. Who she was sure pretty much made going all the worth while. All she really wanted to do was leave and spend time with her. Instead, Vera had been pulled and called in different directions to chat it up with a few friends and take pics with a few others.

Finally, freedom.

Offering Devyn a smile, she accepted the cup of punch. "Wouldn't be prom without it." Seriously, it wouldn't have been. Vera was sure Frank had spiked punches even at the past proms that they were too young to attend. That girl had a spiking legacy going on. After taking a sip, she glanced around the room before looking back at Devyn. "Are we enjoying ourselves yet?" She asked. Vera was pretty sure she was only enjoying how amazing Devyn looked tonight. Despite the fact that she helped with the look, her um... best friend cleaned up really well. 

[Devyn Solway]

All Devyn really wanted to do was take Vera back to her dorm room and go about the little plan that she had. She actually didn't mind if they ended up going to Vera's dorm room, but Devyn would have to stop by her own room first to pick up a few key things. She had a decent amount of time to really think about what had happened between her and Vera. The other girl had said that she wanted her, which just felt different than the usual like confessions and what not. Devyn wanted to be wanted, but it was all still very scary for her.

Especially after having fallen in love with a girl at the school, who was at the school still, and who Devyn was still in love with. She already knew that she was not going to ever stop loving Zoe; it was just how she was. However; she knew that she could fall in love again and that scared her but at the same time...with Vera she felt a little better about it. Vera had actually given her time, a chance to get herself together, and what Dev wanted more than being wanted was to actually be given a chance. Vera had given that to her and Devyn had already made up her mind about what she was going to do.

She didn't mind that Vera was so busy; they both already knew that she would be, and Devyn had no problem just watching from a distance and saying hi to a few people as well. It was also probably a good thing Vera was moving all around, because that dress was just begging to be torn off, and now that Vera was close again, that temptation was strong. The sides would be so easy to just; Focus, Devyn. Behave. Devyn scolded herself. "True." Dev chuckled out as she took a sip from her own cup. She had already had a few of them and had a good buzz going on and knew she should stop because she was a light weight.

"I have been enjoying it since we got here, because I was invited by you and get to see you walk around in that." Devyn said gesturing to Vera's dress, licking her lips subtly; or well not so subtly. Devyn was not one for really doing the whole slow dancing thing, but she really wanted to with Vera, mainly because she wanted her as close to her as she could get her. A slow song was even playing and after a mental debate, Dev opened her mouth, "May I have this dance?" Her hand extended out to Vera.

[Vera M. Solway]

After another sip, Vera basically downed the rest of the punch. The night was still young and if she planned on getting through most of it, she might as well had started on some kind of buzz. Though, she was tempted to just forget it all and have a little party of their own, but you know; priorities and all. Not that she could complain too much. Just look at who was accompanying her.

Smiling sheepishly, she nodded as she was somewhat flattered. "Well enjoy it while it lasts... because I'm already over these shoes and once they come off, so does this dress." Vera chuckled, biting her bottom lip out of habit as Dev licked her lips.

As for the slow song, she hadn't really gave it much of a second thought. Her focus had gone back and forth from Devyn to the scenery and everyone else and back to Devyn, so she hadn't been too worried about dancing or getting too comfortable with the idea of prom. So she was a bit taken off by her offer. "Of course." Placing her empty cup on a nearby chair as she took Devyn's hand and followed her lead. She moved in closer to Devyn, "By the way... you look really hot tonight. Really." It was like no matter what she wore, Vera always found Devyn really attractive and tonight was no different. She had pulled the look off and Vera couldn't help but to admire it. 

[Devyn Solway]

Devyn didn’t waste time getting what little remained of her drink, it was going to be the last one while she was at prom. However; when she got back to her room or Vera’s room well she had no problem drinking then. She just didn’t want to get wasted while they were out in public and end up causing a problem or something along those lines. It was already hard enough to behave when looking at Vera, so she didn’t need being intoxicated adding to the challenge.

“I have no objections. I will even be happy to help with the removal of your shoes and that dress.” Devyn said with a sly smirk basically taking over her face. That lip biting was driving her crazy. Didn’t Vera know that was just something that was too hot to do when Devyn was trying to be good? She didn’t say anything about it; she wanted Vera to keep doing it. It was an enjoyable site and it would just fuel her drive. Allow her to do what she had planned for the rest of the night; or at least what she hoped would be the plan. Devyn knew all too well how plans didn’t always work out the way you originally planned them too.

Still, she was going to hope for the best and just go for it, no holding back, and shoving down the fear of well her general fears on the matter. She was pleased that Vera said yes; really just wanting an excuse to be close to the other girl and it be slightly appropriate for the public. Soon Vera was in her arms, close to her body, and the two of them slow dancing to the music. Thankfully they both knew the basics well enough to not step on another toes. “Heh, thanks. I still say you have me beat when it comes to looks but I’ll take the complement and hope my style continues to please you.” Devyn replied when Vera gave her the complement.

Really Dev was just wearing something she would wear on occasions anyways, but if Vera loved it, she would wear it more often. Devyn felt caught up in the dancing for a while, taking in Vera’s scent, and keeping the girl close. She would sneak in a few kisses on Vera’s lips, cheeks, and neck every once in a while because she really could not help herself. “When you are ready to go…can we head back to my room?” Devyn braved up and asked. It was not a full planned out sexy time; if it happened she be for it, but it was for something serious.

[Vera M. Solway]

As for Vera, she was going to need more than just one or three cups to get her going but she would save the drunken antics for later. She was supposed to be focus on why she was here but leave it to Devyn to be the only one getting her attention. Which may or may not have been all of her fault. Chuckling, she tried to hide her pleased smile. "Good." If Devyn was trying to tempt her, it was working. As usual.

It wasn't until recent that the thoughts of actually being with Devyn crossed her mind. Not just them being in each other's company. She just wondered how it would feel if they could be together like this all the time, as something official. Not having to hide their feelings anymore because of past situations but being more open. It was a something she didn't really dare ask and only because she already made it known that she wanted to be with her and Vera wasn't one for pressuring anyone.

The idea was still lovely.

She couldn't remember the last time she got to dance with someone like this. "You're welcome." Her mouth moved closer to Devyn's ear, "You'll always please me. Just as long as you stay yourself." It was true. The telekinetic wasn't too sure what it was about Devyn but she managed to be so sexy without having to try. It was just the girl's nature and it was always such a turn on for Vera.

For the rest of the dance, Vera found her arms slightly around Devyn's neck, allowing her hands to play with the ends of the girl's hair. The kisses Dev managed to sneak in were more than welcomed. In fact, there were times where Vera found herself not wanting to break away from a few. When she mentioned leaving prom, Vera nodded, wondering what Devyn had in mind. "Uh yeah, we could go now." Her hazel eyes glanced around at everyone else before meeting Devyn's green ones once more, "I think they have more than enough chaperons here anyway."

[Devyn Solway]

Devyn was trying to temp her, because Vera was tempting her just standing there. She just wanted to be sure that they were being fair and having equally temptation dished out between the two of them. She just wanted to start making holes in the side of Vera's dress, where she could see through to the skin. It was all, just so very tempting and she wanted to feel Vera's skin against her own again but she shoved those thoughts down. She didn't want to get too hot and bothered when they were in public and just trying to have a dance.

Dev knew herself, she could be very bad and didn't really care if others saw them but she didn't want Vera to have to deal with that sort of thing. Who knew if those she worked for would be okay with her just suddenly having the sex on the dance floor when she was supposed to be working? If Dev was a mind reader, she would of have found it funny what Vera was thinking about since that was what she actually had planned. She was going to ask Vera out to be her girlfriend, just the two of them, and hope for the best. At least she knew that she would not be turned down because Vera had already made it clear that she wanted Devyn.

The fear really was in the fact that Dev was thinking of what bad things could happen to Vera because of The Shadow Prince Curse and if she would end up losing her. She just had to remind herself to not think like that and just go for it. "Then you do the same, because you are perfect the way you are. No matter what anyone says." Devyn said, and she meant it. It was her biggest thing when it came to dealing with people; to get them to accept themselves. "You sure?" Devyn asked. She was ready to go now, they had already been there a while and it was clear neither of them wanted to stay that long.

Dev only waited for a moment for Vera to give the okay before she interlocked their fingers with one another and started to walk out to leave prom and head to Devyn's dorm room. "Want a piggy back ride?" Devyn offered with a sly smirk. It was mainly because she wanted Vera's feet to get a break from those heels and when they first met she gave the girl a piggy back ride. Sure Vera was in a dress, but Dev was sure they could adjust and work it out if Vera wanted one.

[Vera M. Solway]

If there was one thing that Vera hated about "sort of" being staff, was that she couldn't really act up or act out with her fellow classmates. If she even planned on becoming a full security staff, she still had to prove to them that she could behave, not break any laws, and act the part. While she had the whole "acting the part" down, she still had trouble with not wanting to break any rules.

How do you ween yourself off of rule breaking? Was that even possible? It would have to be, for Vera's sake but pulling away from PDA was harder that she thought. The compliment made her smile. "Thanks." Nodding to Devyn, she was pretty sure she couldn't handle another hour of prom. "Yeah... I'm sure."

With her hand in her's, Vera was more than willing to head out now. Even with her feet hurting the way they did in these shoes, she managed to walk side by side. But oh? A piggy back ride? Without hesitation, Vera let go of Devyn's hand and managed to get both heels off with a bit of a stumble. She telekinetically hiked the bottom of her dress up enough so that she could get a start. While laughing, she attempted to hop on Devyn's back while holding on tight. "Now let's see if you're still as strong as a year ago." Of course she remembered the first time they met and Devyn offered to give her a piggy back ride. It brought back memories.

You just didn't forget stuff like that. "Gidday up horsey! Or in this case, shadow beast-y."

[Devyn Solway]

Devyn gave a small nod at Vera's thanks, but she didn't really need it. She was just being honest with Vera and while the other girl wanted her to stay the same, if there was something that she needed to change; she would do it. Yes, she was not supposed to be living for anyone anymore, but that was still a work in progress. It was who she was and she had a feeling Vera would understand and would work on it with her. Vera had said as much after all.

Vera gave the okay and the two of them were heading, Dev waving bye to a few people she recognized but didn't stick around any longer. They had been there enough and prom was still not something that was her thing and she only gone because Vera had asked her. Still...it had turned out pretty good for her Senior prom; maybe better then Junior prom because there was no drama or complication with it. Devyn didn't want to think about the past however unless it involved Vera. So when the other girl agreed to the piggy back ride, Dev could not help but to laugh as she felt Vera jump up on her back.

"You think I got weak? Girl do I need to pick you up with my hands and toss you into a pool or a lake?" Devyn asked as she tucked her arms under Vera's legs. She then moved to pick up Vera's heels off of the floor, easily holding them in one of her hands and Vera on her back at the same time. Vera could have used her power to carry them, but Dev wanted her headache free and not using her power too much tonight. Save that for when things might end up exploding much later on. "Good thing you changed the name. I was tempted to buck you off." Devyn waned, but she was mostly teasing.

It felt great to have Vera on her back, having the girl so close, and it showed that they could still have fun like friends despite Dev being aware of Vera's feelings. They got to Devyn's room after a few minutes, Devyn's taking her time walking back so she could build up her courage and get bit a bit of the night air a little longer. She would not set Vera down until they were in her dorm room after managing to get the door unlocked, only to lock it behind them once they were end.

"You need anything before I work on getting you out of that dress?" Devyn asked as she moved to her room, dropping Vera's heels off near the door and going to where she had her gift for Vera hidden.

[Vera M. Solway]

She was sure to forget her shoes had Devyn not kindly grabbed them for her. Compared to all of her other heels, they had been a total pain. She wasn't even sure why she had worn them, let alone to prom where she had to stand for longer than an hour. She probably could have gone barefooted, it wasn't like her dress didn't already touch all the way to the floor.

Vera chuckled, "Well that's one way to get me wet, but no; I'm just, you know; testing you." A sly smirk appeared on her face before gently pressing the side of her face against Devyn's a she was carried. She laughed, "I call bullshit, but no, seriously; Don't buck me off." She could never be too careful.

It was actually relaxing, being carried like this all the way to Devyn's room. When was the last time she could actually do this, without having to run back and forth everywhere. Taking a deep breath, Vera watched as Devyn worked her way to getting the door unlocked and then into her own bedroom. Once Devyn set her down, she brushed her dress down making sure nothing was too damaged before looking up at Devyn. "Way to be straight forward." She smirked as she sat on the edge of Devyn's bed. "I guess water is fine." Vera managed to scoot back a bit while eyeing Devyn, "Looking for something?"

[Devyn Solway]

"Mmm...I bet I can get you wet in several ways without any problem." Devyn said, sounding confident. Yes, she was hinting to something else there, but she was so blaming Vera for why her mind went there. Well, it was already there, but Vera was at fault for keeping it there by being herself, being in that dress, and just the general feeling Devyn got from the other girl. It felt so good to just have Vera's face against her own as she carried the other girl back to her dorm room. Chuckling as Vera was bold enough to call bull shit but was still asking not to be bucked off.

"Playing with fire, Vera. You know I like to step up to that sort of challenge, lucky I only want you to end up hitting the floor, bed, or walls in my bedroom." Devyn said. Wow, she really was being a bit too straight forward. She was blaming the moment, just what she had planned and well still thinking about her time with Vera last time. It had been so different then their first time together and Dev really enjoyed every moment of it. Of course she wanted a repeat of it all; in different locations just to spice things up.

They were settled in Dev's room; Vera sitting on her bed, saying water was fine, and then asking what Devyn was up to. She pulled out a necklace box she had hidden under her dresser, hiding it behind her back as she moved to go get Vera some bottled water from out of the fridge. She handed the water over first when she came back into her room, closing the door behind her. Then after taking a deep breath she presented the box and opened it up to reveal the necklace set she got for Vera; and well herself as well she supposed. "Will you be my girlfriend?" Devyn went ahead and said it, being as serious and focused as she could be.

"I understand if you want to wait a little longer, but I just know that I want you to be my girlfriend. Closed relationship, just me and you, and I'm going to do my best to make it a great one because you mean so much to me Vera. I want to make you happy, to treat you like you deserve to be treated. To keep the nightmares away; protect you from any foe that you don't feel like dealing with yourself, and to just be able to have my best friend and a girlfriend all in one." Devyn said, not wanting to have given like a speech but she wanted Vera to hear just how serious she was about all of this. It took a lot for her to settle on the idea, but it was what she wanted. Vera wanted her and she wanted the girl back.

[Vera M. Solway]

Leave it to Devyn to let her confidence just ooze right out of her. "Ooo..." Was all that she could manage to let out. She had a point there. Not like Vera could deny it either, this girl had managed to do just that and even more. She had to admit, Devyn being straight forward could be nothing but positive. Vera wasn't really into being around an uptight person who didn't speak their mind on the subject. In a weird way, they were sort of alike, like being cut in half where one half was a different than the other but almost similar.

While she was on the bed, she hadn't really gotten a response from Devyn. Which was fine, she figured Devyn was probably looking for any old thing or was focused on finding it. Managing to pull her phone out of her bra, Vera checked to see if there were any missed texts or messages while she waited for Dev to get back to the room. She then tossed it to the side in exchange of taking the bottle from Devyn. As for taking a long swig, that was short lived the moment Devyn stood in front of her and presented a box.

It was a necklace, a really gorgeous necklace and a question that followed it.

"Will you be my girlfriend?"

Her eyelids widened as she slowly moved the bottle away from her lips. This - This was. She actually thought about it? Devyn actually considered them being together and she wanted it to be set in stone? Not only was her heart racing but it felt as if it was melting at the same time. To say that it took her off guard was an understatement. She just never expected this with this necklace and god, what a crazy beautiful set of necklaces they were.

Vera slowly stood up, putting the water aside as she wrapped her hands over Devyn's that held the box. "Yes..." She smiled brightly, "Yes." Her hands moved to cup the sides of Devyn's face as she moved in to kiss her. She wanted nothing more than to be with Devyn; To have a best friend in a girlfriend. In between the kisses she planted on Devyn's lips she couldn't help but to nod with a smile. Breaking the last kiss, she didn't move her head too far away. Her hazel eyes squinting a bit as the smile never faded. "I will be your girlfriend."

[Devyn Solway]

The question was out there and Devyn didn't want to take it back. She wanted Vera to be her girlfriend and all she could hope was that Vera still wanted the same. Dev did make the girl wait a while before she had given her an answer, so Vera could have possibly moved on during that time. Dev was not sure if she would be able to handle rejection from Vera, but she would deal with it. Whatever made Vera happy at the end of the day would be what Devyn was going to support. When Vera held her hands and said yes, Devyn felt like her heart had almost stop beating there.

She was a little bit worried about Vera not liking how the gift was a two set and that you put it together to make a heart. It was just something that was recommended to her by the jeweler and well it made her think of a dragon. Vera had a fiery personality, so she thought the design worked perfect for the two of them. Devyn had a huge smile on her face at any rate, and she leaned into the kiss that Vera gave her, giving several quick ones back. Vera moved away, but still close enough that Devyn's could close the distance between their faces and kiss her again. "Thank you. I really will do my best to make you happy. Don’t ever hesitate to tell me when I'm fucking something up or whatever." Devyn said with a small nod.

Dev wanted Vera to stay true to herself, not hold back, and just be honest. If Vera could do that, Dev would correct herself when and if she did something wrong. Then she would learn, get better, and be able to make Vera happy. That was the plan. Her hands were already moving to pull out of Vera's hold to set the box down on the dresser. Then her hands were going to Vera's side, pulling the girl close to her as she leaned in to give the girl another kiss, leaning in, and going right to deepening it, not able to hold herself back. She was certainly blushing and could feel her heart racing inside of her chest, but she didn't care.

"Stay here the rest of the night with me and I'll make you breakfast, deal?" Devyn asked after breaking the kiss to catch her breath really quick. She still stayed close to Vera's face, resting her head against Vera's. One arms stayed wrapped around Vera's waist to keep the girl close to her, while the other started to ideally travel up and down the side of Vera's dress.

[Vera M. Solway]

Vera had been perfectly okay with waiting for Devyn. She was scared of running the girl away had she tried to pressure her into it. So she simply waited, right here for Devyn. She hadn't gone anywhere, or done anything with other people. This was what Vera hoped for and she didn't want to mess that up for the both of them. She knew how strong she managed to come on and running Devyn away wasn't in her plans.

Nodding to Devyn's words, her eyes focused on her lips as she spoke before looking back into Dev's beautiful green eyes. If anything, Devyn needed to know that she shouldn't hesitate either. They were supposed to pick each other up. "I should be thanking you..." She didn't have to be with Vera, she didn't even have to humor the idea of them being together but she did. Not only that, she managed to catch her during a night she least expected it. So it was all real, Vera could feel that Devyn felt the same way about her and it was making her emotional. "Just as long as you know not to hold anything back. I'll even do my best."

She wasn't expecting Devyn to be the perfect girlfriend, that was far from it. All Vera wanted was for Devyn not to have to bury herself each time something went left. Of course, it would take a while for the both of them but she was willing to work with Devyn just as long as Devyn was willing to work with her.

When she met Devyn's lips again, she moved in closer, returning the kiss as she let her arms wrapped around her neck. Her face started heating up even after Devyn broke the kiss. Vera took a deep breath through her nose, taking in all of the girl's scent as she nodded with their heads touching. "Deal." She agreed to it, with a smile plastered on her face as she moved in to give her another kiss, not breaking it this time. How could she possibly turn that offer down? All she wanted to do was to be with Devyn and if breakfast was included, then she surely found a way to win Vera's heart. She shifted her shoulders slightly as her arms dropped to her sides, letting the straps of her dress slightly fall down on their own.

[Devyn Solway]

"For what? It because you that this is happening but we can say it was a team effort if you want." Devyn said back, her words coming out more of a whisper now that they were so close. She was happy that Vera had said yes, that they were both going to go ahead and give it a try. Dev was already wondering what her friends would think about the arrangement and she just hoped that things didn't prove difficult for Vera. There were some that felt like Vera gave her special treatment when it came to her staff duties and that would probably be more of a rumor now that they were going out.

Dev did not care about whatever bad things people said about her but she did not want them being said about Vera as well. "Sounds like we have reached an agreement. Next we might have to talk about another kind of contract." Devyn teased as she already startled to let a low growl roll in the back of her throat. She was done behaving for the night and she figured that Vera would be fine with that choice as well. It would be a lot clearer this time, not coming across with any level of panic but a true desire to make Vera's world stop spinning for a while.

Vera agreed to staying the night and having breakfast in the morning. Perfect, there would be no other reason for them to get out of bed until the sun would come up. "You're mine now." Devyn said, her words coming out with a mix of that growling she had going on. There was another kiss and Devyn easily returned it, but didn't miss that Vera's straps to her dress had fallen. All her sense was at the top of their game as hand trailed up Vera's sides and to the straps. She would grab a hold of them, slowly pulling the dress down as she would break the kiss to kiss at the newly exposed skin.

"And now that I have you...I don't plan on letting you go." Devyn whispered in Vera's ear as she gave the ear lobe a small tog with her teeth. Her lips trailing down Vera's neck to place several kisses there before biting down on that perfect flesh. She wanted to drive Vera crazy, drag things out a bit, but she was already starting to nudge Vera back towards her bed as her hands slowly traveled down with the dress. Fingers running along Vera's frame, memorizing every detail and lips would soon follow where her hands ended up.
