DISCO LESBIANS ON SKATES
Baby x Mystery
Notes; outfits. This is a birthday fic I wrote for my bestie, @gnome-risovan :D this occurs after Baby eventually gets over Jinu. So, just to clear things up, Baby and Mystery are totes into each other and are best friends/soon-to-be-girlfriends. To which, Zach is alright with. He is happy to share :D
I came up with this idea while listening to;
"L-shaped couch" -Scene Queen
"Disco tits" -Tove Lo
----------------------------------------------------------
Baby's knees wobbled, her hands holding onto the rink wall for any ounce of support. How could it be that she could skate on ice like a professional, but be like a new-born fawn on wheels?
Mystery watched with a gentle, patient smile, only worsening Baby's balance. Fuck. She was cuter than usual. Especially in that shirt. Was she trying to kill Baby?
"Stop laughing, Mimi. Its not funny. I'm going to fall."
"You aren't going to fall. And if you did, I'd fall with you."
Baby heart skidded in her chest, racing faster than any bullet train. Ugh, way too adorable.
"That was cringe."
"It was?"
"Yeah. Keep it up."
Baby could feel her face redden with every word she grumbled. Her mouth kept speaking without her to filter it. At this rate, she was going to scare Mystery off.
But, when she glanced over at the pastel purple dog- I mean woman, she only saw that stupidly saccharine smile. The genuine, 'I-am-totally-in-love-with-you-type' that was usually only directed towards Zach.
Because of that smile, Baby lost focus, resulting in her nearly loosing balance. Her arms frailed, panic thrumming in her ears as she instinctively reached for anything to save herself.
She leaned back against the rink wall, one hand gripped onto it for dear life while her other is curled into the fabric of Mystery's shirt, having pulled her close in her moment of fear.
Now, Baby was sure she fucked up. What the hell was that move!?
"Uh- um- I- I didnt mean to do that."
Mystery expression softened as her hand pried Baby's free from her shirt, slender fingers intertwining with Baby's.
"I know you didnt. You need to stop panicking. I'm right here. Where's that confident Baby I know and love?"
Was she... teasing her? Now Baby's knees were for sure going to give out.
"What?"
Mystery snorted at Baby's stunned response, slowly gliding backwards, gently coax Baby away from the wall. Her grip on her hand remaind firm yet warm, grounding Baby to everything.
With a heavy inhale, Baby eased her grasp until she released the rink wall completely. Her knees wobbled, turning inward like a cringey pop move in movies, but she relaxed slightly as Mystery squeezed her hand.
"See? Just... relax."
Mystery hums softly and Baby feels faint. Shes way too hot under the disco lighting. With this much confidence and ease? God, she was wanting to put Baby into a early grave.
"Are you good, Baby?"
Pegmepegmepegmepegme-
"I'm fantastic. Next time, we are doing the ice rink. At least I know how to do that."
Baby wrinkles her nose in distaste, a trait of her always that always drew a chuckle out of Mystery. Lord above, she was smitten. Why did she want Jinu for so long when she had Mystery right here the whole time.
"Mystery?"
"Hm?"
"I love you."
Baby smiled. A vulnerable, warm smile. One only she ever got to see. The lights seemed to glow brighter, the music a lovely hum in the background as Baby kissed Mystery's cheek.
It all was romantic and natrual. Sweet and short. Flustering and flustered. Until Baby finally tripped over an unlaced lace and fall on her front. They went home after that.
