1 or 20 with catradora please for the love of god
Doing #1! Beware, the duo is awkward. Sexual tension. Less planning for the party, more.. Touchy touching. (Sorry for the wait, holidays kept me busy!)Pairing: CatradoraWord Count: 1007
âAlright, Iâm going to pick some names out of the hat now..â Angella sighed, peering at the mess of young adults that sat in a large circle. Glimmer and Bow bounced up and down in their office chairs, and Scorpia and Entrapta were chatting about what they got the others for Christmas.
Adora and Catra on the other hand.. Looked as if they were fighting against each other during a war. They grew apart due to Adora moving to a better company, Bright Moon Inc. thus leaving Catra behind at the Horde Inc. they were inseparable until Adora realized that the Horde, albeit one of the most powerful companies in the world, was scamming and destroying small businesses.
Adora set off to find Bright Moon Inc. which was another huge company that âcoincidentallyâ owned a building next to the Hordeâs main office.
Why are the Horde and Bright Moon collaborating, you asked? Well. Catra and Scorpia, two chief officers, suggested destroying Bright Moon from the inside out, by collaborating together and finding out some juicy secrets that could potentially form a scandal, or something like that.
Okay, the plan wasnât completely mapped out, but Catra has a small grudge.
Angella shoved her hand in the hat, twiddling around to shuffle and grab 2 names out of it. She curiously stared at the small notes, and then looked towards the young adults in the circle.
âCatra and Adora, you both will be preparing the Christmas Party!â Angella cheered, excited that it wasnât her that was chosen. Angella worked way too hard to be chosen for planning a party, specifically between her company and her rival. With a screech and a whine, one of the chosen party planners glared at the other before begging for another pick.
âIâm sorry Catra, whatâs done is done!â Angella showed apathy, walking away before Catra could scratch her with some (absolutely beautiful btw.) acrylic nails. Catra huffed and puffed. How could she even talk with that blonde woman? That beautiful, charming, intelligent traitor! Catra bet Adora couldnât wait for this to be over.
Catra pounded the wall with her fist, disturbing no one because everyone ran to get their lunches after the names were announced.
âExcited to plan this party out!â Adora squealed, grabbing the laptop that Glimmer held out.
âYou sure âbout that Adora? She IS your archenemy.â Bow quirked one of his eyebrows up with confusion. Werenât they supposed to.. Hate each other? Mutually? Catra seemed to hate Adoraâs guts, but that was just about it.
âOf course, but we WERE best friends. I can read her like a book! Sheâs probably waiting outside being all excited and st-â
âPaging weird ponytailed blondie to Conference Room 69, come quick before I scratch your face off.â The office intercom beeped in, with Catra calling (most likely) Adora to a conference room that was never really used. I mean, who needs 69 conference rooms with a well formed and organized schedule?
Adora stood from her seat, wedging her laptop into her armpit. She mumbled an âI guess thatâs me.â before running to the specified conference room. Adora knew about how impatient Catra was, and how she really could scratch Adoraâs face off.
She knocked twice out of courtesy before twisting the door knob and walking into the nearly plain conference room, besides Catra sitting in a powerful looking chair that faced the door. A large plethora of decorations was placed neatly and organized in boxes, which was surprising. Catra wasnât really the neat type of worker. What changed?
âUh.. Hey, Catra?â Adora began, clearing her throat to expel the nervousness from her system. It was weird how they were almost attached to the hip just a few months ago. Now, Catra tried her best to exert dominance and power, as if Adora would try to attack her predator-prey style. It wasnât arrogance, more like.. Defensiveness. As if Adora just poked fun at something OR threw away something Catra took pride in. Like.. A relationship of some sorts.
âHey Adora.â Catra scratched at the cardboard boxes, filling in the awkward silence with an annoying noise. Adora watched her movements suspiciously, pulling the laptop from her under arm and setting it down on the conference table. She typed in her password and clicked on a document that held all of Adoraâs ideas and some color schemes that they could maybe follow.
Catra fiddled with her tie in boredom. Why was this so awkward? She thought that more hating would ensue, and they would be bickering much more. To be honest, Catra would rather be angry at Adora than be sad that she was gone.
âSo.. Howâs work?â Adora started with a stupid question, sliding her laptop to Catra for some feedback.
âDonât ask that question, blondie.â
âWhyâre you so mean?â
âWhyâre you so stupid?â Catra shot back to Adoraâs surprise. She wasnât stupid! Slow, maybe, but not stupid!
âYouâre the stupid one! Youâre still working in the Horde!â
Catra stood up and rushed to Adora, pushing her against the office chair. She straddled Adoraâs waist before pulling on her hair and tugging on it roughly, causing Adora to whine under Catra. The girl on top sent a glare straight (or gay) to the other, asserting more dominance as the seconds passed.
âSay that again!â Catra growled, tugging on Adoraâs ponytail again.
âYouâre stupid. You didnât leave with me to go to Bright Moon.â Adora said again, irking Catra further.
Well, that started a small slap fight. Not the painful slaps, imagine the kindergarten fights that sparked because of a stolen crayon. Thatâs how strong their fighting was. After a few minutes, Catra laid her head on Adoraâs shoulder, huffing to catch her breath. Adoraâs arms were around Catraâs waist in an attempt to keep their balance.
Catra raised her head to stare into Adoraâs eyes, sighing before lightly slapping the blonde girlâs cheek.
âStupid dork. This doesnât mean I miss or like you.â
âI mean I didnâtâ I didnât say anything.â
