2/3

Ivy

Sana couldn't remember the last time her heart seemed to jump against her ribs so eagerly as she made her way into the wood, the tall trees surrounding her like they were watching each of her steps into their kingdom. A way of clear sand under her feet that leaded towards the river, too cold on that time of the year to have people around, holding in her hands two cups of coffee and in a paper bag hanging around her wrist a piece of the best lemon pie she could find, Mina's favorite.

The day seemed to have passes painfully slowly around her, even the town seemed practically unmoving around her when she left her house an hour ago to buy what she expected to be the right apologize gift. Sana knew that seen from outside there wasn't anything wrong with meeting Mina in the cafeteria or even back in O'Malley's, they were just friends catching up with each other... if only people knew better. The river was always a safe place for them, in their childhood days they used to swim and play around it's edges and as they started to grow it's used quickly changed around them as well, the river suddenly wasn't there for them to swim and build sandcastle that were quickly destroyed by them running around, it was the place where Mina cried about her first break-up, where Sana came out to her... The place where Mina first kissed her.

Being fully honest to herself not even Sana knew her real intentions by inviting Mina to that place again, when the whisky and the beers were long gone of her system that morning she had to face the consequences of her actions that came quickly in a wave of regret that oddly mixed with a hint of pride. Sana knew the way she approached Mina the night before wasn't probably the softest and most proper one yet she couldn't help but feel a little proud of herself for making it work when she knew that if anybody else would have told Mina those same words she used they would have probably gotten humiliated in front of the whole bar. Sana didn't expect her to show up and run into her arms that afternoon, she honestly didn't expect anything other than maybe a few nags from Mina that with some luck she could smooth enough to sit together and finish their coffees in any kind of friendly peace.

Sana couldn't point exactly what was honestly making her gravitate around Mina once again, she knew her presence in that town was temporary which meant that getting many closer to Mina would end in another break up and Sana wasn't sure she could handle hurting her again. Convince herself she did it only to find a closure was probably the best excuse she had to hide the fact she still felt like a teenager every time Mina smiled at her or when their hands brush pass the other, the way their relationship ended up wasn't exactly what Sana could call a friendly break up, in fact, Mina didn't even show up to say goodbye the day Sana left and that was something that chased her for long after leaving Evermore. There were so many things that she wished she had told back them, so many other she wished she had kept to herself instead of causing troubles in their relationship that seemed to have a future at least for Sana when they were younger.

People say you can't forget your first love and despite Sana didn't believed it when she made her way to Evermore, that afternoon she had to admit they might be right. She took most of the day to choose what to wear, thought what to say and plan what kind of peace offer she could offer Mina when the time came, the idea of flowers was quickly declined when she noticed it would have made everything look more like a date than a casual encounter... Well, Sana knew there wasn't anything really casual about it anyways but she decided to let things be at least for once. The fact that they were meeting in their little hidden place was more meaningful than what both of them wanted to admit, they knew that everything that could happen there stayed between both of them and the birds singing for them from the top of the trees.

The flow of the river was steady and calm as Sana took a seat over a rock steps away from the water, her hand reaching for her phone in the pocket of her jacket to picture the scenario in front of her, she was a few minutes earlier but the fact that she didn't rush Mina to move their meeting to earlier that day was a whole miracle, her fingers moved over the screen to text Mina the picture and then all she could do was wait.

It felt surreal to be in that place waiting for Mina to arrive like the years didn't pass by between them, like Sana didn't leave and Mina wasn't engaged with a man she didn't love at all. Sehun was floating in the back of Sana's mind since the night before, the way the man wrapped his arm around Mina's shoulder, how uncomfortable she looked when he leaned to kiss her cheek without a warning... everything about their relationship seemed out of place for Sana and she couldn't stop wondering how was it that anybody else noticed too. The thought of Mina being condemned to a loveless marriage hurt something deep inside her, the fact something so pure as love could be denied to her made Sana want to fight the whole town for their judges, to fight Mina even for letting those peoples force her down for their comfort.

The orange-like shades painted the sky above her and the clouds seemed to almost touch the top of the trees as Sana looked up to meet the sunset, thirty minutes and there was still no trace of Mina around her, not even her text was answered despite it was quickly seen and a bitter feeling was starting to grow in the middle of at the silence. Mina wasn't usually late for anything, it simply wasn't on her personality to keep people waiting for her without letting them know but there was Sana sitting in the middle of the wood with two cups of coffee already too cold to be drunk and an untouched piece of lemon pie.

[6:10 P: M]

I'm still waiting Mitang.

Once again silence.

Nothing was send back to her, not apologize or an excuse, not even an insult for her bravery the night before, Nothing, Mina was pushing her away even before Sana left. When her wait took fifty minutes of her time on what seemed like a useless attempt to hold into her hope Sana decided she had enough, luckily there was nobody to see her cry as she walked back home.

Two cups of cold coffee still between her hands.

Suddenly Sana thought it was the best to have chosen such place for their encounter because otherwise she wouldn't have the strength to explain why she was sitting alone in the middle of a restaurant for almost an hour. Surprisingly Sana wasn't angry at Mina, it was something worse, a rotten feeling forming in her chest as she dried her tears harshly with the palm of her hand, stupid her to think she could have a space in Mina's live, even less in her heart. Sometimes silences spoke louder than any amount of words and that afternoon Sana had a big bit of it, Mina deciding not to show up meant she decided to humiliate Sana, not in front of the others but for something worse; in front of herself.

There was no space for Sana in the live Mina was building... or at least that's what Sana repeated to herself as she locked the door of her bedroom behind her.

+++

Mina tried her best to ignore the guilt growing in the bottom of her stomach since the afternoon before as she made her way into the grocery shop, Sana's texts still hunting her mind no matter how many hours had passed by between the day before and that morning. She should have thought about it twice before accepting her invitation, she should have stopped even if it was for a second to think about the consequences Sana could have in her new live, maybe if she had done it earlier yesterday she could have told Sana she wasn't going to show up by any means in the river and would have saved the elder the torture of waiting for her in that forgotten place.

She tried to convince herself it was the best decision she could have taken but then, why did she feel so bad about it? There wasn't anything especially wrong about meeting an old friend, even if everybody else knew they used to be girlfriends, exes could be friends sometimes... Couldn't they? Yesterday Mina woke up decided to stand in front of Sana and let her know that by any means she was going to break her engagement with Sehun, that her life was already planned and there was no way she allowed her in once again but when the hour came in from of a picture of the other woman patiently waiting for her in the river Mina felt her bravery being thrown quickly to the wind. She couldn't lie to Sana, she had lied to everybody else on that town but she knew there was no way she could have lied to Sana good enough for her to believe her.

Sleeping with Sehun the night before was particularly hard since his heavy arm was far from the person Mina spent the whole night thinking about, a spark of anger lighting inside her chest, Was she really childish enough to let Sana ruin everything she's built so easily? What was it about that woman that made her impossible for Mina to resist her? Even that morning when she tried to distract herself by walking her puppy Sana wouldn't let her mind, making her heart stop every time she thought she saw her around the corner of the town or when she was having lunch with her mother and for a split second she thought she was going to choke with her food when Sana's mother joined them by surprise, a mere causality, nothing strange in such a tiny town but titanic for Mina who was trying desperately to ignore the existence of her first love streets away from her.

Somehow she managed to spent most of her day without incidents and that gave her a horribly fake sense of control, Sana didn't dare to text her anymore, even less a call probably knowing Mina wasn't going to answer back to neither, so with her list of groceries in one hand and her turtle backpack over her shoulder Mina walked the aisles of the tiny grocery shop downtown. Sehun's grandparents were coming all the way from South Korea to meet her and despite Mina knew they would probably love her like his parents there was still a generous amount of pressure resting over her shoulders, her mother and her had planned to cook dinner for them and Mina being her regular careful self-decided to avoid any mistake on the recipe by buying the ingredients herself.

Mina didn't expect to crash her shopping car onto another person as she read the list and walked down beside the buzzing fridges but she also didn't expect to hear Sana groaning as she turned around to meet her. Standing under the fluorescent and plastic lights of a grocery shop Myoui Mina's heart stopped beating in front of what had to be the deepest pair of honey eyes one could find, luckily the shop was empty and the place was quiet around them because for a split second they could have sworn the world stopped spinning under their feet.

-Mina-Sana practically breathed as she gave a step back, a jar of ice cream in her hand.- You're okay.- The older Japanese pointed, her eyebrows furrowing softly as she looked at Mina with her full attention.

Sana's hair was tied back on a ponytail and a thin layer of make-up was covering her face like she wasn't just as perfect without it, Mina felt a sudden strike of regret after hearing her words, she knew Sana was the type for people to worry about others almost more than what they actually should, her silence from yesterday probably brought all kind of scenarios to her mind and to think she was making Sana worry-sick was enough to make Mina's body become a whole pound heavier.

-I'm sorry-Mina rushed to say in an airy tone; suddenly her mind couldn't wrap around words enough to create a longer sentence.

-It's okay, It didn't hurt that bad-Sana smiled with her lips pressed together, not knowing if Mina was apologizing for wasting her time or bumping into her with her shopping cart.- That's a long list, huh, Important event?

-Family dinner-Mina explained softly as she turned to look at the fridge beside them for a second trying to gain any courage to keep the conversation going. - What are you doing here?- She almost whines at the only question her mind could come up with, nobody told her growing older didn't stop her from embarrassing herself in front of pretty women.

-I'm walking around a little, the house can be exhausting-Sana assured with a soft smile this time showing Mina the line of perfect pearly white teeth- Can I help you with the list? I really need a task in hand or I'll go insane.

Like the tragic emotions of the day before didn't actually happen Sana held the list Mina handed her with an embarrassing weak gesture, she didn't understand why would Sana even offer her help to her when it was clear for Mina she should be at least a little hurt or angry at her. Walking behind her as she pushed the shopping car this time with more attention, Mina wished she could read what kind of thoughts were running around behind those silky locks of brown hair swaying side to side softly as Sana leaded their way towards the vegetables.

-How's latte? - Sana wondered as she picked a few tomatoes and placed them carefully into a plastic bag and into the shopping car.

-He's home probably waiting for his walk, I hope he didn't pee over my carpet... Again-Mina sighed making Sana laugh at her softly. - You don't have any pet in New York?

-I don't have the time to take care of a little thing on my own-Sana assured as she picked a few other things from the list to place them into the car without even looking back at Mina.- My friend has a dog too and since she's usually at my place I get to play with it too.

Mina couldn't help but feel a new flame of jealousy starting in her heart before she could stop it, Sana's friends were probably all as gorgeous as her and almost surely just as charming as well. It was insane to think someone like Sana was single, Mina knew she probably had a generous amount of admirers home but what was making her reject them was the part she wished to know, ever since they were much younger Sana navigated through relationships with ease... well, every relationship except theirs. At the beginning they found the secret part of their relationship exciting, thrilling even, the possibility of being caught as they kissed in the back of the school or in the middle of a parking lot in the nights where her parents thought they were studying together but when things go serious for Sana hiding seemed to have turned into a sharp knife between them.

After seven months as girlfriends Sana couldn't be more in love with her, she used to pick her up every single morning to go to school together even when her dad took the car earlier and she had to block two extra blocks to reach Mina. Sana was always reckless, she always tried to get her way around things and for Mina it was never a problem until she felt other people should know about them as well because they for sure weren't doing anything wrong... at least for Sana it was that way. Mina almost laughs bitterly at how so many years after and being a full grown up woman couldn't hold her from wanting to repeat the scenario of sneaking away held between Sana's arms as she heard sweet nothings whispered against the warm skin of her neck, Sana had changed and she had changed as well but her body still felt like something was pulling her towards the other woman.

-I'm sorry about yesterday-Mina said softly looking how Sana stopped her steps to look at her carefully. - I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

-You didn't, It was childish of me to invite you there just like you said-Sana cleared with a frown- A text would have been nice but you don't own me that neither.

Mina was free to take her decision and her silence spoke louder than any other thing she could have told Sana that after as she waited, if she wanted her to stay away then Sana wasn't even try to push her way in again no matter how bad she wanted to. The night before turned to be longer than any other as she laid in her bed looking through the open window towards the pikes around her house, even when she thought Mina was living in a lie, what was the difference between her and what Mina was doing? Sana looked successful, like she had the world wrapped in her pinky but that couldn't be more far from truth... What was the point of having an apartment in the upper east side of Manhattan if she couldn't even stop herself from feeling sad? It was hypocritical of her to criticize Mina.

-I just...-Mina started and she looked how Sana pressed her lips together for a second.

-Save it Mina, you really don't own me an excuse-Sana interrupted in a manner far from her regular behavior.- I'm not angry or anything.- she tried to smile softly as she looked down at the list on her hand- Let's finish your groceries.

Suddenly following Sana around was a torture for Mina, to have her so near and nevertheless feel her like she was on the other side of the world was by far much worse than Sana getting angry at her for not showing up, a part of her wished Sana had yelled at her or throw a fight right there in the middle of a grocery aisle but she knew the woman was never a fan of making scandals... that's one of the things she used to like about Sana. Avoiding the issue wasn't going to make it easier between them but it was the fastest and safest solution they both could offer to themselves, what was the point of letting Sana know she couldn't stop thinking about her? That she was dying to hug her and promise she wouldn't disappoint her again?

Anything Mina did was probably going to be taken as an empty gesture, pity even and looking at how Sana's usually soft demeanor turned into a cold front quickly after her apologize made her know that even if she was in the reach of her hands Sana wasn't open to being touch that morning. She always thought Sana had a pure soul, the kind that should be kept in a box away from other people to poison her and to think she was able to plant a seed of anything that wasn't happiness or any tender feelings into her heart made Mina angry at herself, she should have showed up to that date, she couldn't even measure how important her presence in that river was for Sana until she looked how deep her eyes buried on her.

She thought getting away from Sana was the right thing to do but standing in front of her in the middle of that stupidly quiet shop Mina understood that was probably one of her biggest mistakes.

-Forget the list- Mina suddenly decided making Sana turn around with one eyebrow lifted in curiosity- Let me cook dinner for you tonight.

-Mina that's...- Sana started before stopping in the middle of her sentence, her hand gripping the list as she looked right into Mina's eyes trying to find a warning, anything that could let her know if she was being played with again.

-You don't have to come with me if you don't want to-Mina said softly walking closer to Sana until they were only one step away from each other. - You can say you'll come and then don't show up as a revenge...-Mina mumbled suddenly feeling her cheeks turn warm as she looked to the ground.- I'm sorry for making you sad Sana, you didn't deserve that.

Sana could feel it growing in her chest again, the outburst of emotions so hard to handle that it was a miracle she didn't scream at how Mina was fiddling the edge of her shirt as she spoke, How could she thought Mina wanted to hurt her? How was someone so small having so much control over her? she for sure didn’t deserve being left alone in the middle of the woods but Mina for sure didn't serve to be rejected neither... like Sana could even deny anything from her anyways.

-Stop sounding so sad about it-Sana hummed softly as her hand lifted to pet Mina's hair tenderly, her fingers tangling in the soft blonde locks- I'll go but only if you cook pasta for me.

-Really?- Mina could barely hold her surprise making Sana laugh when she looked up to meet her eyes with the speed of light- I mean, yeah, sure, whatever-She cleared trying to make herself look like her heart wasn't ready to explode against her ribs.- Pasta will be.

A chuckle left Sana's lips as she looked at the furious blush spreading all over Mina's face until reaching the tip of her ears were her fingertips traced down the shell with slow and tender moves, the elder giving an step closer leaving their bodies separated only by a few inches and Mina could have sworn her mind stopped working that very second when Sana's breath practically clew against her face and her perfume reached her senses in a comforting wave.

-You look beautiful today by the way, I didn't know if that was allowed before this- Sana mumbled for only Mina to hear, her knuckles running down against Mina's cheek until her thumb and index held her chin softly.-I'll ride you home, don't think I'll let you slip away after yesterday.

-I didn't expect less from you-Mina hummed with a weak smile, her heart dropping when Sana's eyes fell over her lips as her warm tongue ran across her lower lip.- We're in public.- Mina remained looking around nervously despite there wasn't actually anybody around them.

-We're just friends talking, aren't we?- Sana suddenly smiled brighter than the sun as she tilted her head to a side like she hadn't been ready to devour Mina's lips in the middle of a grocery shop.-Let's go, I'm dying to see Latte again.

It felt almost like a game for Sana and her, like they were back in their teenage years hiding from their parents and sneaking their way around into any hidden place they could find. For Mina, Minatozaki Sana was the only who slipped away from her, maybe if she had had the guts to leave with her years behind they would had each other in that point... maybe she could have loved her even more than what she did when Sana left. As she followed Sana out of the grocery shop and into her car after paying Mina remembered herself she needed to protect her heart because if Sana was able to make such a mess the first time nothing was stopping her from making a bigger then when the circumstances were even more complicated around them, she knew the woman had to leave at some point, she knew that it was probably just a summer thing for her and that before she could even realize she would be kissing her cheek goodbye and would give a turn to go back to her marvelous life in New York.

Sana wasn't hers to keep; she simply was gifted with the power to have her next to her and practically move her at her will. Was Sana really capable to play with her in such cruel manner? It was hard to believe looking at her from the company seat, her hand falling into Mina's tight like it was meant to be there, like they belonged one beside the other as she drove in silence the lonely streets of Evermore.

Mina's door opened with a soft crack as they walked into her house, Sana's jacket still hanging in the back of the door making the foreign smile to herself at the tiny victory, somehow she left her trace without even noticing and Mina didn't seem to have any rush of hiding it away. Quickly Latte jumped and barked around their feet for a minute as they reached the kitchen with a generous amount of plastic bags in hand, the place was warmer than what Sana remembered, almost like everything had changed simply for the orange-like shadows coming into the place through Mina's opened curtains.

The quiet house was filled with music from the old radio in the living room creating a fading background sound to the scene in the kitchen, Sana's eyes wandered on Mina's back as the woman faced the counter beside the stove, the soft clicking of the knife chopping some vegetables against the wooden surface of the cutting board was almost a lullaby to her. In the last five months nothings was able to feel Sana excited, nothing felt like it was worth her time and effort but all it took was Mina walking back into her life suddenly to make her feel like she had a purpose again, and that was getting her away from her the stupid mistake marrying Sehun would be.

Without being able to hold herself any longer after two generous glasses of wine Sana stood up from the stool softly and almost without a noise, Mina was too focused speaking about her students to probably even notice the woman on her back moved until an impossibly warm hand landed on her lower back with a tender pressure.

-And Tyler is...-Mina's words were quickly cut when a slow breath blew against her nape. - What are you doing?

-I have something to confess-Sana started in a mumble, her hands wrapping around Mina's small waist to turn her around.

Curious eyes met Sana's and that was the moment Mina knew she had lost any trace of self-control over her state around that woman. From above blunt and dark eyes looked into her with attention, seeking almost like hunting yet as soft as a kiss in the forehead and the first summer wind. Sana was everything between the stations, she could be as warm was the sun if she felt like it but as soon as she wanted something there was nothing able to stop her from getting it and Mina was the only thing she wanted right there and then.

-I can't stop thinking about you Mina-Sana whispered with her eyes closed softly- I can't get you out of my mind.

-Sana- Mina stuttered as her hand fell in place over the slender shoulder in front of her, the woman's eyes fluttered open slowly.

-You just need to say no Mina, a single word and I'll stop everything-Sana assured softly, suddenly almost sounding scared of being offensive, her fingers pushing a lock softly behind Mina's ear- You're the only thing that matters here, I'm all about you now.

There was something in the way she made sure everything about it was settled in Mina's mind before moving forward that made the younger woman want to cry at her tenderness, of course Sana wouldn't dare to be nothing but careful around her. For a quick couple of seconds the sudden urge of pushing her away and asking her to leave her house crossed her mind until the soft and warm breath coming from Sana's lips crashed against her lips, she was only inches away from the only woman she's ever loved, the only one who knew every inch of her mind and soul.

Soft and trembling hands cupped Sana's cheeks making her close her eyes in anticipation, a soft sigh leaving her lips when she felt thumbs running against her cheekbone slowly, everything about Mina felt like it was made just for her. All their thoughts came to an end when Mina leaned forward to meet the lips that took so many nights of sleep away from her, Sana almost melted against her as her hands pulled her closer towards her body by her waist erasing any space that kept her away from the other woman, the elder thought she could have died when a warm tongue slide against her lower lip almost timidly making her moan at the sensation.

Dizzy with want Mina found herself trapped between the kitchen counter and Sana's body tightly pressed against her, regretting every minute she tried to stay away from Sana as she felt a hand caress her spine until reaching her nap driving Sana closer to insanity when a shaky whine felt her lips as short nails dig in the tender skin of her neck.

Mina couldn't point how she reached the top of the counter after the tenth kiss and Sana couldn't quite remember where her shirt was thrown to as they sank in each other, their bodies seemed to have missed each other as Sana was welcome against Mina's skin like a long awaited visitor, her hand wandering against the silky white skin making the owner whimper and tremble against her.

-I'm yours Mina-Sana mumbled against the tender skin of her hip- I've never stopped of being yours.

It had to be hell in earth that was the only explanation Mina could give to the rushed heat running across her body.

When their lips met again Mina thought her heart had stopped beating when Sana smiled at her tenderly in a sudden soft gesture between the storm their lush pushed them into, hands caressing her back without rush as those deep honey eyes looked into her carefully, Devotion, fear... Love, everything was trapped in those orbs Mina couldn't get enough of.

Future didn't matter, her family, her engagement, all the things that kept her tied to that stupid town, stupid her to ever think any of that mattered. Sana felt her heart squeeze when she spotted tears filling Mina's eyes as she looked at her, her hands cupping her cheeks with a pout to caress her cheekbones with her thumbs.

-Where have you been?-Mina mumbled with a soft breath making Sana feel even weaker.

-I'm here now love-Sana assured pulling her closer by the hip- I'm here now.

Time had passed by and things many things had changed.

But Sana was always going to be Mina's one and only love.

-What are you doing? - Her father wondered as he looked at his only daughter sitting in the porch.

Sunday morning and it was a miracle Sana was up and ready for the day at such early hours, a wide smile met the man as his daughter turned to look at him with a cup of coffee between her hands. It's been three days from the last time she saw Mina but that didn't kept any of them from texting each other and Sana had to admit it was exciting to have someone to talk to during the day even if it was in between foods when Mina got to sneak away just to say hi to her, if she closed her eyes and focused enough she could hear her giggled at every flirtatious thing Sana could come up with and she could only imagine how adorable she looked as she blushed at her words. Sana was growing feelings quickly but it wasn't like she ever really stopped feeling something for Mina.

Her father was a quiet man, much different from her and her mother who seemed to be always full with energy and with something going on their lives. No matter how many years went by Sana was still the light of his life and there wasn't any occasion since they came back to her where he didn't show his only daughter how much love he had to offer her in his own unique way.

-You look good today sweetie-The man smiled as he sat next to his daughter in the couch, Sana hummed as she rested her head against his shoulder.

-Are you going to church too? - Sana wondered as her hand was held between her father's rough palms tenderly.

-Of course sweetie, your mother would never allow me to miss one Sunday-He laughed making her laugh with him- What are you planning for today?

Sana was pretending to think about an answer when she saw her appear from the side of the street, her blonde hair practically bouncing with each step as she walked in front of their house with a paper bag and two coffees in hand, Sana thought she had to be dreaming when Mina smiled her brightly as she walked into their garden.

-Dad-Mina greeted the man first by pure education showing the pair her best smile, Sana felt her heart fluttering when her eyes fell over her- Good Morning Sana.

-It's always a pleasure to see you Mina-The man started as Sana stood up from his side slowly, her eyes never leaving the blonde.

-You won't mind if I borrow you daughter for breakfast, would you?-Mina asked knowing the answer by memory; Sana was practically jumping in her spot out of purest joy.

-Of course no, we were just talking-Sana rushed with a giggle as she took the coffees from Mina's hands softly- We'll eat in my room, have fun in church dad- she hummed as she leaned to kiss her father's cheek.

Three days had showed to be a horrible amount of time to be away from Sana, that morning Mina nearly called her name when she tried to call Sehun from the kitchen... the mess that would have caused was what impulse her to that house, the soonest she could be with Sana the better her thoughts could ease about her. The last time they met was still floating in her mind nonstop and it was starting to be difficult to explain why she was blushing in the middle of everywhere in such a fresh weather, Sana's voice on the phone was turning more into a torture than a release as she found herself wishing to be between her arms as soon as she heard her soft voice greeted at her so sweetly she couldn't even hold back the smile that curved her lips inmediately.

Giggling like a teenager Sana closed the door behind them as soon as they reached her room, the lock quickly placed on the knot before turning around to meet her lover.

-Please tell me I'm not the only one missing you-Sana started with a shy smile that quickly grew when Mina laughed throwing her head back softly.

-You don't know how much I've missed you honey-Mina stated making Sana's heart flutter.

Quickly arms wrapped around Sana's waist as Mina pulled her into her embrace tenderly, her head resting against her shoulder tightly as she felt fingers tangle in her hair almost like it was their natural place to be.

-I like it when you call me that-Sana hummed with honesty as she looked down to meet her favorite eyes.

-Honey-Mina repeated looking up making Sana smile before leaning to kiss her lips softly- I can't stop thinking about you.

-You should have called me-Sana mumbled cupping her cheeks- You only needed to call me.

Mina wished it was that simple but Sana didn’t need to know how hard it was for het to keep up with that new side of her life, the more she allowed herself to open up again for Sana the more scared she got to be caught or even worse… to be left heartbroken. It was insane for Mina to think that three days ago she was really convinced she could live her life as Sehun’s wife until the life did them apart; she had convinced herself love wasn’t really all about excitement and hard emotions but about comfort and calmness… Sana was doing everything to proof her wrong without even trying. How was it that Mina lived ten years without butterflies in her belly?

Everything about the other woman was different and exciting; Sana was challenging in many ways and to being with her as adults was surprisingly better than when they were younger and that was hard to believe since Mina couldn’t even remember the last person other than Sana that made her feel the same way. There was always something about the other woman that Mina couldn’t quite understand, it seemed to be impossible how after ten years she could still keep up with everything Mina could throw at her, how their bodies seemed to remember each other and their hands never stopped falling in place against the other.

-I thought you were hungry-Sana chuckled against Mina’s soft lips as the younger pushed her against the nearest wall.

-Do you prefer eating first? - Mina suddenly realized she probably was hungry as well; Sana furrowed her eyebrows when gentle eyes met hers in pure worry.

-Oh my god Mina- Sana groaned leaning to kiss the tip of her nose three times- You’re killing me here.

-That’s my talent, isn’t it? - Mina hummed making her lover laugh- Kiss me again, I’ve waited enough.

She didn’t need to ask twice for Sana to melt against , eager hands crawling under her shirt to rest against her warm abdomen in hesitating caresses. Sana learned that there wasn’t something that could made her worried if she had Mina’s hands over her, like the world had vanished and the only two humans on that forgotten town were them, they were made to love each other but with love it came a big responsibility and Sana knew that… if Mina decided to throw her heart away she didn’t think she could recover it soon enough to remember how life was without her again. They were dancing across the most dangerous paths of life but god, how well did it feel.

Caution was thrown to the wind when Sana’s hand opened the zipper to Mina’s tight jeans as they giggled all the way to the mattress hidden by the same walls that used to keep their love secret when they were sixteen. Sana felt she could float out of that room across the ceiling if it wasn’t for the comfortable weight of Mina’s body over her, hands trembling in lust ran down scratching her ribs making her squirm and whimper against the impossibly full lips.

-You’re beautiful Sana- Mina breathed against forcing her to open her eyes to meet soft eyes studying her face- Everything about you is perfect…- her lips attached to the spot beneath her ear when Sana threw her head back at the fingers pitching her s without a warning.- Say you’re mine.

-Mina-Sana whimpered under her as a hand ran down her belly towards her opened jeans.

Everything about her was intoxicating, almost overwhelming to the point of tears when her fingers reached between her legs spread by her body over her, Mina’s voice whispering things to her ear and her free hand groping her s without stopping made Sana feel ready to explode at any second.

-Mina-She practically cried as her hand dig in her lover’s back desperately.

-I’m here Angel-Mina mumbled against her jaw- I got you Sana, I’m here.

Mina didn’t realize the weight of her words; she couldn’t even imagine how much it meant to Sana to know she had her… even if it was for a stolen moment. Sana had picked her poison by allowing Mina in her heart again but she knew it was probably the best cure she could have found, especially when light kisses were spared in her face without rush as she breathed hardly trying to bring her soul back to her body.

-Hold me-Sana whispered with her eyes barely open to meet Mina’s blush face twist with a sincere smile.

Holding Sana was as dangerous as placing her hand into a burning flame, it only took their first night together to make Mina know there were only a very few things that could made her feel as complete as having the other woman between her arms, vulnerable and open to any desire that could slip between her swollen lips. Sana looked up with her eyes so bright that the sky should be ashamed in front of her; Mina’s hand ran lazily through her hair pushing the locks away from the thin layer of sweat forming on her face.

-Please don’t let go of me-Sana suddenly requested making Mina’s heart drop to her feet. - Don’t let go of me again.

Even when Mina’s eyes looked at her like she was the center of the whole universe before leaning to capture her lips in a chaste kiss Sana didn’t miss the track of her thoughts.

No matter how well Mina could distract her… Sana couldn’t help but notice her words were taken by the wind and no promise was made after that
