Charlotte finished washing her face before returning to the bedroom. Smiling at the sight of her girlfriend, she walked over and rested her chin on Fiona's shoulder. "I'm back," she murmured softly, wrapping her arms around the younger girl's waist.

Fiona smiled, lacing her fingers with Charlotte's "Mm, hey you."

Charlotte nuzzled into Fiona's neck, smiling. "Miss me?"

Fiona tipped her head to a side, smiling wider "Always, baby."

Charlotte planted a soft kiss to Fiona's neck. "Good."

Fiona turned around to face her "Mm, hi."

Charlotte kissed her lips.

Fiona returned the kiss.

Charlotte held Fiona close.

Fiona wrapped her arms around Charlotte.

Charlotte parted her lips.

Fiona slid her tongue between her girlfriend's parted lips.

Charlotte let out a soft moan, moving her tongue against Fiona's.

Fiona slid her hands up Charlotte's back.

Charlotte ran her fingers through Fiona's hair.

Fiona moaned softly into the kiss.

Charlotte tried to walk Fiona backwards towards the bed.

Fiona giggled, walking backwards.

Charlotte gently pushed Fiona down onto the bed. "You're so beautiful."

Fiona looked up at her "I love you..."

Charlotte crawled over her, kissing her. "I love you too, gorgeous."

Fiona kissed her girlfriend deeply.

Charlotte hummed, running her hand up Fiona's arm.

Fiona smiled "Mm, you're in that kind of mood, are you?"

Charlotte kissed along Fiona's jaw. "Mhm..."

Fiona started to pull up Charlotte's shirt.

Charlotte let her shirt come over her head, then kissed Fiona's neck.

Fiona tipped her head back.

Charlotte bit gently.

Fiona gasped "Baby..."

Charlotte began to suck a hickey, pressing her body against Fiona's.

Fiona unhooked Charlotte's bra.

Charlotte let her bra come off, taking Fiona's hands and putting them over her breasts.

Fiona moved her hands over Charlotte's breasts.

Charlotte moaned softly, finishing the hickey.

Fiona whispered "I'm not wearing a bra."

Charlotte slid her hands under Fiona's shirt in response, gently squeezing her breasts. "You were expecting this?"

Fiona moaned breathlessly "I /wanted/ this. If you didn't initiate, I would have."

Charlotte pressed her hips down against Fiona's. "Mm, baby... your shirt needs to come off /now/."

Fiona started to lift her own shirt up and off.

Charlotte grinned at the sight of her bare torso, leaning down to take a nipple in her lips.

Fiona moaned, holding her hair.

Charlotte held Fiona's waist, teasing her nipple with her teeth.

Fiona groaned "Mm, yes...."

Charlotte moved to her other nipple.

Fiona lifted her chest slightly.

Charlotte played with the waistband of Fiona's pants as she circled her tongue around her nipple.

Fiona lifted her hips.

Charlotte sat up, pulling Fiona's pants down.

Fiona wiggled out of her pants.

Charlotte leaned back down, kissing down Fiona's torso.

Fiona moaned softly.

Charlotte reached Fiona's underwear, pulling it down quickly.

Fiona kicked them away.

Charlotte kissed Fiona's hip.

Fiona laced a hand into her girlfriend's hair.

Charlotte moved lower, gently coaxing Fiona's legs apart.

Fiona parted her legs, her body trembling.

Charlotte licked over Fiona's folds, flicking her tongue against her clit.

Fiona moaned, lacing a hand into Charlotte's hair, growing wetter between her legs.

Charlotte licked eagerly at her. "Mmmm..."

Fiona gasped, using her hand to pull Charlotte closer, her back arching.

Charlotte licked circles around Fiona's clit.

Fiona pressed herself against her girlfriend's face, linking a leg over her shoulder.

Charlotte moaned against her, licking firmly.

Fiona touched her own breasts, moaning.

Charlotte slid a finger in her girlfriend's entrance.

Fiona moaned out loudly, her back arching.

Charlotte moved her finger, sucking gently on her clit.

Fiona moaned "Baby... Need /more/..."

Charlotte glanced up at her girlfriend, adding a second finger almost immediately and curling them.

Fiona cried out, moaning her girlfriend's name in pleasure.

Charlotte grinned against her, moving her fingers.

Fiona arched her back "G-gonna....."

Charlotte curled her fingers to hit Fiona's sweet spot.

Fiona immediately cried out, letting go with a loud moan.

Charlotte licked her through it.

Fiona lay back on the bed, panting.

Charlotte sat up, smiling softly. "You are so beautiful."

Fiona started to pull her up "I want to taste you. You're so gorgeous..."

Charlotte moved quickly up Fiona's body, kissing her lips. "Mm..."

Fiona kept pulling her higher.

Charlotte quickly fumbled with her pants, pushing them down.

Fiona pushed off Charlotte's pants and underwear, kissing the other girl's chest.

Charlotte hummed, pressing her hips against Fiona's.

Fiona whined slightly "Come up here. I want to taste you. I want you to straddle me..."

Charlotte let out a breath before quickly rising up Fiona's body to straddle her face.

Fiona immediately leaned in, licking over her folds.

Charlotte moaned, pressing down over her girlfriend.

Fiona held her hips, licking eagerly.

Charlotte rocked against her face, squeezing her own breasts.

Fiona moaned, licking in deeper.

Charlotte moaned out loudly. "Mm, baby..."

Fiona pressed her tongue inside, rubbing her clit with her fingers.

Charlotte rocked quickly against her. "Oh... yes..."

Fiona kept licking, moving her fingers.

Charlotte moaned out Fiona's name as she hit her release.

Fiona licked her through it.

Charlotte slid off of Fiona's face, slumping down beside her.

Fiona rolled onto her side to face her girlfriend, grinning "You okay?"

Charlotte nodded, looking dazed. "Uh huh. That was... wow."

Fiona leaned in to kiss her softly.

Charlotte kissed back, shifting to get comfortable.

Fiona broke the kiss, pulling up the duvet and snuggling against her girlfriend.

Charlotte curled up against Fiona. "I love you, Fi."

Fiona kissed her head "I love you too. I really do."

Charlotte giggled softly. "You're the best," she whispered, brushing hair out of Fiona's face.

Fiona pecked her lips again "Come on. I think it's time for bed."

Charlotte grinned lazily. "Way ahead of you, baby."

Fiona rubbed her back, her eyes closing.

Fiona served food in the kitchen, smiling.

Charlotte peeked her head in the kitchen. "Oh, hi Fiona... guess what?"

Fiona grinned at her "Hey, Char! What is it?"

Charlotte grinned in return. "I finally have my job assignment. Apparently someone named Fiona is supposed to show me the ropes in working in the kitchen."

Fiona beamed widely "Really?"

Charlotte nodded. "Yeah!"

Fiona grinned "Well, come over here! I'll show you how to serve."

Charlotte smiled brightly, walking quickly over to Fiona. "Teach away!"

Fiona laughed "It's really quite simple. Go wash your hands, then start giving people what they ask for."

Charlotte nodded, turning to wash her hands quickly, then standing by Fiona. "Sounds easy enough."

Fiona started to serve people again.

Charlotte smiled, starting to serve as well.

Fiona chatted to other people as she served, joking with them.

Charlotte fumbled with some food, spilling it.

Fiona smiled reassuringly at Charlotte "It's okay. Just clean it up after."

Charlotte nodded. "Okay. Sorry."

Fiona shook her head "Don't worry." Charlotte smiled softly. "I'm a bit of a klutz."

Fiona smiled "It's sweet."

Charlotte glanced down. "Really?"

Fiona nodded "Mhm."

Charlotte grinned. "Well, thanks for making me feel better about that."

Fiona grinned back "You're welcome."

Charlotte giggled. "Let's see if I can get this."

Fiona laughed and continued serving.

Charlotte smiled, starting to serve again.

Fiona finished up the last few customers "Phew."

Charlotte looked up. "Oh, we're done?"

Fiona nodded "Yes. Lunch ends at one. Adam will be here in a minute, to help with clean up."

Charlotte nodded, glancing at the clock. "Okay. I get it."

Fiona nodded and started to clean up.

Charlotte took her lead, looking for what she could do to help.

Fiona started to remove the food from the counter "This gets cooled, then goes in the fridge."

Charlotte nodded, taking some food away. "Got it."

Fiona set it on the side then started to clean.

Charlotte helped out as much as she could.

Fiona finished cleaning the surfaces as Adam walked in "Hey, Adam. You can do the dishes." She stuck her tongue out at him.

Charlotte glanced up, catching sight of Adam. "Hello."

Fiona continued cleaning up.

Charlotte tried to keep up, helping to clean.

Fiona showed her how to do the tasks.

Charlotte smiled in appreciation. "Thank you."

Fiona smiled "You're welcome."

Charlotte sighed. "This is harder than I thought it would be."

Fiona "You'll get the hang of it."

Charlotte nodded. "Alright."

Fiona smiled "Want to go do something fun now?"

Charlotte grinned. "That sounds perfect."

Fiona grinned "What do you want to do?"

Charlotte thought for a moment. "I don't know."

Fiona "We could check out the library?"

Charlotte nodded, her eyes wide. "Yes, please."

Fiona started to lead her toward's it.

Charlotte followed Fiona, smiling softly.

Fiona smiled as she walked.

Charlotte looked around as they entered the library. "Wow."

Fiona smiled "Mhm. Amazing, right?"

Charlotte nodded. "Uh huh. There's so many books."

Fiona gestured "Look around."

Charlotte walked over to a shelf, looking over the books.

Fiona stood aside, watching Charlotte close.

Charlotte stopped when she came to a certain book. "I used to love reading this one!"

Fiona beamed "Bring it with you."

Charlotte smiled widely. "I can do that?"

Fiona nodded "Yes! You just have to sign it out at the desk."

Charlotte grinned, pulling the book off the shelf. "Awesome!"

Fiona grinned and stood by her "Happy?"

Charlotte turned to look at her. "Very!"

Fiona grinned widely "Good!"

Charlotte hugged her suddenly, forgetting herself. "Thank you so much!"

Fiona hugged Charlotte back, surprised "You're welcome."

Charlotte stepped back, glancing down to hide a small blush. "Sorry about that."

Fiona smiled softly at her "Not a problem."

Charlotte grinned. "I got a bit too excited there."

Fiona laughed "That's okay. I didn't mind."

Charlotte smiled, looking down at the book. "Good."

Fiona smiled "Ready to go or...?"

Charlotte nodded. "Yeah, I think I am. Unless you wanted to do something here. I mean, I don't want to rush you or something."

Fiona shook her head "No, no, I'm okay."

Charlotte smiled. "Okay. Then yes, I'm ready to go."

Fiona started to lead Charlotte to the front desk.

Charlotte signed out the book at the desk, smiling.

Fiona led her out of the library.

Charlotte followed Fiona, looking down at the book.

Fiona asked "Where are you going now?"

Charlotte shrugged. "Probably back to my room to relax."

Fiona nodded "Um, so, I'll see you later?"

Charlotte gave a small smile. "Yeah, see you."

Fiona smiled "See you."

Charlotte waved, smiling as she turned to walk away.

Fiona sat on a bench in a refugee camp, knees curled to her chest.

Charlotte was standing alone, looking around. Spying a girl also sitting alone, she slowly walked over. "Mind if I join you?"

Fiona shook her head and gestured to the seat, staying silent.

Charlotte sat down, not speaking for a few moments. "You just got here?"

Fiona shook her head "Two weeks."

Charlotte frowned, playing with her hair as she stared into her lap. "Yesterday."

Fiona nodded "My Mum is dead and my Dad and brother are in the army. My real Mum and sister are alive, as far as I know, but I couldn't find them. So I'm here."

Charlotte nodded slowly. "I'm sorry. My sisters are here with me. I don't know about anyone else. Well, I know that my Dad and brother are also in the army, but that's about it. I haven't seen Mum in days."

Fiona looked at her "I'm alone. I wish my family were here.”

Charlotte stared down at her lap. "I'm sorry."

Fiona shook her head "No, its fine."

Charlotte wrapped her arms around herself. "I miss my home already."

Fiona "You get used to being here."

Charlotte bit her lip. "Really?"

Fiona nodded "It's not so bad."

Charlotte looked up at her. "I'm Charlotte."

Fiona looked back at Charlotte "Fiona. Fiona Beasley."

Charlotte gave a small smile. "Charlotte Vaughan. It's nice to meet you."

Fiona gave a half smile back "Nice to meet you too."

Charlotte tucked her hair over her shoulder. "It's so busy here."

Fiona nodded "You get used to that, too. And to the work."

Charlotte blinked. "Work?"

Fiona nodded "Everyone gets assigned a job when they get settled. I work in the kitchen."

Charlotte nodded. "Oh, I see. I guess I'm not exactly settled yet."

Fiona nodded "You're not. I work with a boy called Adam and a girl called Lily."

Charlotte shrugged, folding her hands together. "I see. Sounds cool. I wonder where they'd put me."

Fiona "They'll ask if you have any skills. What can you do?"

Charlotte shrugged. "Cooking and baking. Cleaning. I love stuff like that."

Fiona nodded "Maybe they'll put you in the kitchen too."

Charlotte smiled, nodding. "Yes, that would be fun. And then I'll see a friendly face."

Fiona smiled "It would. And the other two in the kitchen are nice. Adam is gay, he had a boyfriend but

Fiona he hasn't seen him in months. And Lily is only thirteen."

Charlotte grinned. "Ooh, I see. I hope I end up with you guys."

Fiona smiled "I hope you do. Adam is a nice guy, but he gets sad a lot. But Lily is always cheerful."

Charlotte grinned. "Sounds fun."

Fiona smiled "It's nice to have you here."

Charlotte nodded. "I kinda wish we didn't have to meet under these circumstances."

Fiona nodded "But its better than not meeting at all."

Charlotte grinned. "Very true. So, what else is there to do around here?"

Fiona got to her feet with a smile "Come with me. I'll show you around."

Charlotte stood up with her. "I'd love that. Thank you."

Fiona started to walk "I'll show you the rec room."

Charlotte followed after her. "There's a rec room?"

Fiona nodded "A small one, but yes."

Charlotte smiled. "A small one is all I'll ever need."

Fiona led her into the room.

Charlotte looked around. "Very nice."

Fiona opened a cupboard "There's even a tv. Though it doesn't always get power."

Charlotte brightened up. "Ooh! Exciting! Hopefully I catch it when it has power some time."

Fiona smiled "The best times are after breakfast, between meals. In an evening, everyone else is trying to watch when they get home from work. And a lot of power goes to the cookers at meal times."

Charlotte grinned and nodded. "That makes sense."

Fiona smiled and led her out the room "Where are you rooming?"

Charlotte followed, shrugging. "Somewhere around here with my sisters. I'd know how to get there if I saw the hallway."

Fiona nodded "Want to see my room?"

Charlotte grinned. "Sure. I'd love to."

Fiona smiled and started to lead her in the direction.

Charlotte walked with her, looking around. "Do you know many others here?"

Fiona nodded "Mostly the people I work with and dorm with, but yes. And my neighbours. An engaged couple called Kurt and Blaine."

Charlotte smiled. "An engaged couple? That's really nice. I had a friend, Charlie. But I haven't seen him in a long time."

Fiona nodded "They said they went through Hell to find each other again. Then they came here. Maybe he's here. You never know."

Charlotte shrugged, rubbing under her eye. "Maybe. It'd be nice if he was. But it really doesn't matter."

Fiona unlocked the door to her dorm room "Here we are."

Charlotte peeked in. "Nice."

Fiona led Charlotte inside.

Charlotte followed her in, smiling softly. "Do you room with someone?"

Fiona nodded "A girl called Sally and twin boys called Chris and Sam."

Charlotte looked around. "Sounds fun."

Fiona gestured to her corner "This is my part of the room."

Charlotte nodded, glancing over. "Looks comfy enough."

Fiona "I've made it as homely as I can." Fiona led her over, pointing at some photos "This is my family."

Charlotte looked closely at the photos, smiling. "You look so happy."

Fiona pointed "That's me, with my real Mum and half sister." She pointed at another photo "And that's me with my adoptive family."

Charlotte nodded slowly. "You were adopted?"

Fiona nodded "Yes."

Charlotte looked down. "But you know your birth family?"

Fiona nodded "I only met them earlier this year, though."

Charlotte "Oh, I see. It wasn't awkward?"

Fiona nodded "At first, but it became normal."

Charlotte nodded. "Oh, I see... sorry. I shouldn't be asking so many questions."

Fiona shook her head "I don't mind. Go right ahead."

Charlotte nodded. "Mhm. Um. Why were you adopted?"

Fiona "My Mum felt she couldn't take care of me. She was only young."

Charlotte "Oh, I see. That makes sense."

Fiona nodded "But I'm happy to know her now."

Charlotte grinned. "Sounds really nice."

Fiona smiled "I have twice as much family." Her smile dropped "At least, I did."

Charlotte frowned. "I'm sorry."

Fiona shook her head "I just have to keep faith that I'll see them all again."

Charlotte nodded. "That's a good attitude to have."

Fiona touched the photo "It's the only way I can keep it together."

Charlotte hesitated, staying silent.

Fiona looked at her "Sorry."

Charlotte shook her head. "No, I'm sorry."

Fiona asked her "Why are you sorry?"

Charlotte blinked. "I didn't mean to get you to talk about this. I'm really sorry."

Fiona shook her head "It's nice to talk about them. I haven't in a while."

Charlotte smiled softly. "In that case, I guess I'm glad."

Fiona smiled back softly "Thank you."

Charlotte glanced down. "Um. Would you like to see where I'm living?"

Fiona smiled softly "Okay."

Charlotte nodded. "Great. Shall we?"

Fiona nodded and led her out of the room, locking it behind her.

Charlotte started walking through the hall, trying to figure out how to get back to her room.

Fiona followed Fiona "What wing are you staying in?"

Charlotte hesitated. "Um. It's somewhere over here. I think. I don't remember."

Fiona "Do you remember the name?"

Charlotte shook her head. "No. I'll know it when I see it."

Fiona started listing off the names of all the wings.

Charlotte stopped her when she heard the right one.

Fiona nodded and started to lead her in the direction.

Charlotte followed after her, embarrassed.

Fiona asked her "Are you okay?"

Charlotte nodded quickly. "Yeah, of course."

Fiona nodded "Okay."

Charlotte gave a small smile. "How much further?"

Fiona turned around one more corner "Look familiar?"

Charlotte looked around. "Yeah, definitely. This is the hallway."

Fiona nodded and smiled "Okay, good."

Charlotte took the lead, showing Fiona to her room.

Fiona looked in "Very nice. Where is your family?"

Charlotte shrugged. "They're probably off meeting people. My sisters can be airheads at times."

Fiona nodded "What are they like?"

Charlotte picked up a photo from a shelf. "A bit ditzy. But sweet, and kind. I love them so much. That's them, with me and our brother..."

Fiona said softly "You look happy. All of you."

Charlotte nodded. "Mhm... we're really close. It's so hard to not have Lance here with us..."

Fiona nodded "I feel the same about my family."

Charlotte smiled softly. "They'll be safe. I'm sure of it."

Fiona "I'm sure you're right."

Charlotte nodded. "Like you said, you've just got to stay positive!"

Fiona smiled "Right. Positive."

Charlotte nodded. "Everything will be fine. Eventually."

Fiona nodded "It will. This war has to end sometimes."

Charlotte smiled and walked over to her corner. "Exactly. Sorry about the mess, by the way."

Fiona shook her head "Don't worry."

Charlotte laughed nervously, trying to straighten out her corner a bit. "We haven't really had time to settle in yet."

Fiona laughed "Don't worry, mine was the same at first."

Charlotte grinned. "Really?"

Fiona smiled "Really."

Charlotte giggled. "Well, then. I don't feel so bad about this," she gestured around the room, "now."

Fiona giggled "There's no need to."

Charlotte laughed. "Okay."

Fiona laughed and looked around.

Charlotte picked up another photo. "This is me with my friend, Charlie."

Fiona "I've seen him!"

Charlotte glanced over at her. "Really?"

Fiona nodded "I'm trying to remember where...."

Charlotte closed her eyes. "Is he here?"

Fiona suddenly shot up "Yes!"

Charlotte slowly sank down against the wall. "Oh god... he's actually here...?"

Fiona ran out of the room suddenly.

Charlotte blinked, sitting against the wall. "Fi...o...na...?"

Fiona ran around, looking for Charlie.

Charlie was loitering about, chatting with some friends he had made at the refugee camp.

Fiona ran until she found him, out of breath "You. A friend of yours is here. Charlotte Vaughan."

Charlie turned to Fiona, his eyes widening. "'Lotte's here? Really?"

Fiona grabbed his hand "Come with me!"

Charlie nodded quickly. "Oh, I can't wait to see her!"

Fiona started to drag him towards her dorm.

Charlie followed after her, excited.

Fiona led him into Charlotte's room.

Charlie's eyes lit up when he saw Charlotte. "Lottie! I can't believe it! It's actually you!"

Charlotte had been sitting and waiting. She squealed when she saw Charlie come in behind Fiona, though. "Oh my gosh, Charlie!" Throwing herself at him, she wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug.

Fiona stood to the side, watching.

Charlie hugged her back, smiling widely. "I'm so glad we found each other," he whispered.

Charlotte nodded, burying her face in Charlie's shoulder. "Mmmhm!"

Fiona crossed her arms over her chest.

Charlie glanced over at Fiona. "Is everything alright?"

Charlotte fell silent, watching Fiona.

Fiona nodded "Fine."

Charlie shrugged. "Okily dokily, if you say so. I'm so glad you brought the two of us together again!"

Charlotte frowned, catching Fiona's eye.

Fiona shrugged "No problem. I have to go to work now."

Charlotte nodded. "Okay..."

Fiona turned to head out the room.
