.remind me again, why?

[Vera M. Solway]

A waste... a complete fucking waste of time.

Initially, Vera had "the day off" or something close to it. She had to stop by the KPD to finish off some paperwork for a past incident that happened downtown the other night A real fucking mess. It was one thing to be caught drinking underage, but to be drinking underage and go out of your way to harass another mutant... it was uncalled for and things got really messy. Another reason why Vera couldn't stand to have to work night shifts sometimes. Mornings were kind of her thing when it came to getting work out of the way. Nights were supposed to be for relaxing, enjoying yourself... heck, even sleeping.

So Vera had already been peeved that she had to come in on her day off. Not to mention, there had been a meeting about the newest changes and how one person managed to become one of the newer Detectives. A spot that Vera had been wanting since she became an officer, even before that. But of course, having a degree Criminal Justice, a background in Security, and tight connections with Bellefonte wasn't enough. It was like the Chief wanted her to bend over backwards, kiss his ass, and then some... Which she refused to do despite the fact that she already touched cases that most of the KPD detectives wouldn't.

Soon enough, she'd the written exams would come around and she'd take them and get to where she needed to be... but for now the telekinetic would suffice with just being home in hopes that her wife was there. She nearly forgot Devyn's schedule or the day considering she was liable to work either afternoons, evenings, or late nights but remembered mentioning something about being home for the day.

Vera moved to put in the key, unlocking the door before heading inside. As if by habit, she unstrapped her holister from her person, placing it in one of the drawers in the kitchen. Having a gun in their home had been the least of their worries considering what they both grew to be. "Baaabe..." The whining began as she called out to Devyn, not really knowing where Devyn was but almost too lazy to walk upstairs into their bedroom, so instead took her pouting lips future into the kitchen as she took off her light jacket before searching for a cup. "I had the most annoyingest day and I know annoyingest is probably not a word but if it was, it would best describe today." After a deep sigh, she ran her fingers through her hair.

[Devyn Solway]

Solitude. It was something that Devyn had been able to be fine with in the past, but now it was something that literally caused her problems. Problems in where that shadows around her would move around, the dark thoughts would whispers in her ear, and that inner beast that was stronger after that SPRITE affected her. Dev had done pretty good at keeping herself busy most if not all day so she would not have to deal with the beast within her trying to take on the dangerous level it had in the past. it was almost funny how every time she would get control, she would lose it because of something. Not that it mattered now, not all that much.

Sure the shadows were moving around her a little bit, but that was normal now and she was not worried about losing control. Not when she was focused on completing an online test for a college class. It was enough to keep her mind busy while she sat at her computer, alone in the home that she had with her wife. It was still slightly weird to think about the fact that Vera was her wife, but not really. Things had been going crazy and what really was the shock of it all was that Vera said yes. Perhaps Vera too felt like the world was going crazy and wanted something stable in her life.

Either way, Dev was happy that Vera was an official Solway and that they were leaving together. It was nothing compared to sharing a room together, but those years basically living in one another’s room had helped make the transition easy enough. Dev hear her girlfriend at the door long before the keys started to jingle and unlock the door. She was already closing out her test and moving down the steps. A small chuckle escaped past her lips as she listened to her girlfriend call out to her and whine about her day. "I'll let the fact that it is in fact not a word slide, because I love you." Devyn responded as she reached the bottom of the steps, taking a moment to check her girlfriend out.

Vera was still damn hot, but three years normally didn't do much to the physical body at this point. After she enjoyed the view for a moment longer, she moved over to her girlfriend, leaning in to give her lips a quick kiss before she would move behind her girlfriend. Hands would casually move to her girlfriend’s shoulders, where she would begin to massage them a little bit. "Now, tell me about this annoyingest day, Mrs. Solway." Devyn responded, already working on trying to ease her wife's stress away.

[Vera M. Solway]

"I'll let the fact that it is in fact not a word slide, because I love you."

A soft smile crept on the telekinetics face as Devyn's voice played like music to her ears. There were times where all she wanted to do was get away from everything and just stay at home with Devyn when the both of them had a whole day to themselves. It was hard to keep a pout on her face when the one person that made her the happiest happened to be right there. "Good to know my wife loves me despite my ability to create words out of thin air." Her hands moved to put her hair up in a bun before going into the fridge to grab a can of soda. Only to fill her cup half way until she felt Devyn near.

The young woman also leaned in, returning the quick kiss. Taking a deep breath, it didn't take her long to remember how amazing Devyn's massages felt. Her eyes closed for a second, "Remember I told you I still had paperwork to finish... on my day off? So not only did I NOT get to finish it, we had a meeting..." She turned, so that she could face her wife. "A meeting that reminded me that being a young ass-kisser will get you a promotion faster than being a young, experienced, and dedicated person who doesn't know how to kiss ass."

Her hands gently held her wife's sides as she pouted again, as her hazel eyes looked up to meet Devyn's. "Remind me why I chose this career path, again?"

After a moment, she sighed, glancing behind her towards the kitchen counter before looking back to Devyn. "I missed you today."

[Devyn Solway]

It was always nice to see Vera's smile, it just made the darkness just level out and remain under control. That was what happened when someone was your life line to suitably in a world that felt like it just didn't want to remain in a state of peace. Things were not perfect, but they were a lot better and just seemed to have better days then the bad ones overall. "I would love you no matter what." Devyn responded back to her wife's words about it being good that she was still loved despite making up words. Vera often made up words, that was something that had not really changed, along with Devyn's love for the other female.

She had told Vera in the past that when she fell in love, it was forever. Forever was still happening, so her feelings towards Vera were not going to be changing any time soon. Vera looked busy with a soda, but that was not going to hold Dev back from giving her wife some affection. It was clearly needed when Vera had a hard day and Dev was happy to give it when it was needed. This kiss always felt like it was kissing Vera for the first time, which just proved that there was still heat between the two of them. A flame that Devyn didn't see going out any time soon.

"I was wondering what was holding you up. I even made sure I would be off today so we could spend time together. Had to distract myself with a quiz. A quiz, babe. It was awful without you." Devyn fake pouted, even letting out a small whimper. It was not all that bad, but she did wish to have been able to spend more time when they were both supposed to have off today. The nice thing about being in college was a bit more freedom with you scheduled. She chuckled a little at Vera's words about how work was for the ass-kisser vs the hard worker; such was life. She didn't hesitate to remain close to her wife, enjoying Vera's hands on her sides as she rested her own on either side of her wife against the counter.

"Because it was something you have been dreaming about doing for years. You are going to be a detective Mrs. Vera Solway." Devyn said, very firm in her answer. It was okay for Vera to have doubt, but Dev was going to do her best to help her wife reach her goal. A warm smile spread across Dev's lips at Vera's next words, causing her to lean in to give her wife another kiss, one that lingered a little longer. "I missed you more." Dev responded simple, looking into those beautiful hazel eyes.

[Vera M. Solway]

Her smile transformed to a full on grin as she heard her wife's words. "You won't be saying that when we're old decrepted women and my jugs sag so far to the ground that my back gives out during old people sex." Chuckling in between words as she just pictured it, almost making her cringe at the same time. Either way, Vera was certain she'd love her wife just the same, if not even more... Time often did that to the heart.

Her hands cupped the sides of Devyn's face as she countered her wife's fake pout with her own. "Awwww... baby." She knew how much Devyn hated quizzes and honestly, Vera couldn't blame them... they were so tedious sometimes but she knew how smart her wife was, despite her lack of interest in such things. Then there was the assurance of her being a detective and while she believed Devyn, while her wife was probably right... it just sucked that it would take her longer. Not to mention that she'd have to deal with more asshats along the way. "Yeah, well.. at least one of us is being optimistic." It was hard to keep doubting herself when Devyn was cheering her on, which was more than she could ever ask for.

She inhaled while returning the kiss, taking in Devyn's scent as she did. Her hands still never leaving that beautiful face of hers, even after the kiss ended. "I'm sorry for being away for so long..." Vera leaned in, continuously planting soft kisses all over her wife's face and her lips. "...resulting in you having to take that horrible, horrible quiz." Her lips traveled along the side of Devyn's neck, leaving kisses in between every word as her voice grew softer. "Can you... ever see... yourself... forgiving me?"

While it did suck that she wasted most of her day, she was happy to be home now and she missed Devyn to no end. Her hands roamed back down towards her wife's waist. Smiling softly as she nuzzled against her wife's neck. "Say you forgive me."

[Devyn Solway]

Devyn could not help but to make a face and shake hear head for a moment at her wife's words about when she would not love her. The face was mostly from the mental image of them having this 'old people sex' and jugs sagging. Devyn didn't really think that Vera would ever have a problem with her jugs sagging or anything like that. "I will be sure to just hold them up with my hands then. Besides, we all know old people don't have sex. So nothing to worry about." Devyn said as she stuck her tongue out. Really, Dev refused to believe that old people had sex. She flat out refused. When she was old, then maybe she would but for now she just could not picture it mentally without making a face and questing such a task for a super old person.

Her face was cupped then, followed by kisses all over from her girlfriend who seemed to not ever be able to hold herself back from doing such a thing when Dev pouted. Perhaps Dev did it on purpose just for that reason, or she forgot Vera would do it. She didn't fight it and enjoyed it either way as she could not get rid of the grin that took over her face. At least one of them was being optimistic was saying something. "Yeah, which is bad since I'm the one with the power that literally makes me think the opposite sometimes. So it's clear you need a break and to just clear your mind so you can see why you do this all once again." Devyn responded.

She would always try and be Vera's light when Vera got lost in the dark, even if it was hard for her to be it on her own. Still, for Vera she was able to do things she normally could not do; the same applied to everyone she cared about. Dev would do whatever it took to make sure those important to her felt happy and safe. Vera was then apologizing, giving several kisses as she spoke and was closer each time. It was certainly causing Devyn to feel a little warm than usual, but that tended to happen when Vera was so obviously wanting something or just teasing her. A low growl was already starting to rise up within Devyn's thought just thinking about it either way as she enjoyed the kisses.

"Trying to break in the counter?" Devyn asked in a whisper at Vera's first question. Then came the request to say that she did forgive her and the nuzzle into her neck. Dev's hand had already moved to rest on her wife's hips, fingertip already slipped under the shirt and gently caressing her girlfriend’s sides. "I forgive you, but I still have to finish that test." Dev responded, since she had left in the middle of it and had a few more left to do. Yet, now she didn't want to.

[Vera M. Solway]

As much as she completely hated the idea of getting old with wrinkles and sagging tits, Vera knew everyone got to that point... and hopefully it took her longer to get there, seeing how the women in her family managed to look younger even though they were older. Though the image of her wife having to hold her boobs up due to old age, that was a pretty funny to imagine. Gross, but funny. She smiled brightly, agreeing with Devyn out of humor and not because she thought her wife was right. "Right."

Despite the true reason for the pouting, Vera found herself utterly addicted in giving her wife attention when she got like that. It probably had something to do with the fact that Vera always wanted Devyn to feel loved, even if that meant she'd be babied. Taking a deep breath, she nodded, her hazel eyes glanced down at her shirt, gently patting a hand against her wife's shoulder. Her smile softened as her eyes looked back up, meeting Devyn's own, knowing that she had a point. "Maybe you're right. Maybe I should take a break."

A break. Vera didn't even know the last time she had a break from anything. It felt like the last four years had been a complete blur of busying schedules and always having to be in constant movement and action. How do you even? But if it allowed her to have more time to relax and spend more time with Devyn, then she'd surely take it.

A giggle escaped her lips as she felt her wife's growl vibrate from her neck. She continued, her smiling lips still went against Devyn's neck as she answered her, "The counter... the stairs... the laundry room... the dining table... still so many places to break in and so little time." She felt her wife's welcoming fingers against her and though Devyn had already forgiven her, she sort of didn't want to stop.

Then of course, she mentioned the test. It wasn't a mood breaker but she knew better than to distract Devyn from what needed to be done. Unless, of course, she wanted the distraction. Moving her head back slightly but not too far, she looked up at her wife with a slight smile. "You should probably get back to that. Wouldn't want you failing a test because of me. I can wait." She assured her.

[Devyn Solway]

Her wife said right, so that had to mean Vera agreed with her that old people just didn’t have sex. At least that was what Dev was going to keep assuming because it was not possible for old people to have sex, right? That was why they had all those pills and what not to help them try to have it. Okay, now she was forcing that thought out of her head since she didn't want to think about old people sex. She wanted to think about only one kind of sex and that was all the kinds of sex that she could have with her wife. The woman who had said yes to her when asked if she would marry her, the woman that had been with her for years now, and the woman she lived with.

It was all still so odd thinking back to it all so long ago but Dev knew that she didn't want to have it any other way. She loved the woman before her from everything down to her scent and on top of that, Vera was hers. That thought alone just pleased Devyn so that Vera was hers until the day that they died. "I am. You need a break. It does not matter if you just take some time off to spend at home with me or if you want me to take you somewhere. I'll do what I can." Devyn responded. School could go somewhere if it ever thought it was ever fully going to get in the way of Dev's life with Vera. It only worked out now because Vera tended to be busy but Dev had no problem doing things early in order to allow herself more time to spend time with the one she loved.

Clearly she needed to spoil her wife a bit more and get rid of those dark thoughts and tension in her body. Vera added more locations that needed to break in with each word spoken against Devyn's neck. She loved it when Vera did that. "So many places. I've clearly been slacking." Devyn responded when she heard the list of location. There was that test that did need to be finished...but she could always retake it. With the online ones it was sometimes easy to trick the browser with the time and this test did allow her to have multiple takes on it. It was a take home one after all, so failing it was impossible when one could simply pull up a google page and google pretty much everything.

"Mmmm....later. Right now I have to check off several of those places." Devyn responded, grabbing a hold of her wife's hips tightly. She didn't hesitate to rotate the two of them, lifting up Vera and onto the counter while she leaned in for a deep kiss. They could start here, work their way to the dining table, then the steps, and then maybe the bed. Didn't really matter where they ended up but they were surely going to start here since Dev was not wasting time as her hands slid along her wife's flesh. Finger tips exploring up to unhook a bra and then work on removing Vera's top in the short moment she would allow for the kiss to be broken.
