MINE?

Collide

The night felt heavier than usual,quiet but restless as if the city itself knew something forbidden was about to unfold. Ava was Miles away,and for the first time,the air between ploy and davika was free from her Shadow. Ploy stood by the window,staring at the dim streetlight outside, waiting for the sound, she wasn't sure,she should want a knock.

When it finally came, her heart skipped once…twice. The door creaked open, letting in the cool air and soft flutter of nervousness. Ploy stood by the doorway,twisting the edge of her sleeve as Davika stepped inside….

I hope it's not too late

No…. it's fine. I wasn't sleeping

You seem nervous ploy?

[Trying to sound calm] No! I'm not….

Then why aren't you looking at me?

Because…. you're too close…haha…

COME IN

It's strange , isn't it? We're supposed to get married and we still barely know about each other

It's not a real marriage, remember? Just part of the Mission

Yeah…I know, but it feels like something real is happening

Ploy glances at her,unsure how to respond.

Maybe that's how stories begin,strangers pretending,until it feels real.

[Davika steps closer,amused]

And what if it's already starting to feel real?

[Ploy just pretends to laught it off]

Then you're in more danger than you think agent…

Davika smiles,eyes soft as she studied her,not the ploy who is her rival,but the beautiful girl infront of her now.

Davika…do you drink?

Yeah,when I'm nervous..

Then,are you nervous?

[Davika sits beside her,voice low]

Haha..only around you..

Ploy looks down quickly, hiding her face. She opens the wine bottle to distract herself,she pours two glasses,their hands brush when she passes one over,just for a second but it lingered in both of their minds..

I still can't believe we're really doing this, getting married just to catch her

Yeah, it's risky but it's the only way to keep you safe ploy

And, when it's over, then what?

Then,I think we go back to who we were..unless you don't want to .[she winks]

You're impossible davika!

Ploy…..

Huh

You know…I've noticed something

Oh? what's that?

[Davika smirks, leaning closer to ploy]

You've fallen for me, haven't you?

W-what? I haven't!

Oh really? Then why your heart races everytime I'm near,you think I wouldn't notice,the way you look at me? And that little smile you try to hide.. yeah..I saw that too.

[Ploy looked away, flustered]

I…. that's….

[Davika slightly touches ploy]

Shhh…relax,I also feel the same as you do, I've felt this for a long time, even when I tried to ignore it. I love you because of the way you care quietly for others,the way your laugh lights up in even the smallest moments and how brave you are , even when you don't realize it..

I…I never thought…that you'd feel the same. I thought it'll be over after 2 years. But I think our fate is going on other direction

[ she smiles shyly]

Umm…good, because I'm not letting you get away from me ploy….

Then…don't..

Ohhhh I plan on staying….right here and every word, I plan to take full advantage of it

[Davika leans over to ploys neck]

Ploy slightly pushes her away

You're so cheeky,davika….

Haha…and you love it to..

[They finish their wines, and head towards the bed]

You….you don't have to sleep In this, there's another one there.

[Davika grins as she follows]

Who said anything about sleeping somewhere else?

[Ploy turns around quickly,her cheeks turning pink ]

I …just meant…you don't have…

Enough enough, your blushing already, don't you wanna sleep with me

[Ploy was speechless,she looks down trying to hide her smile]then they both lay on the bed

I still can't believe we actually confessed to each other…

[Davika lights her cigarettes, smirking]

Believe it, I've known for a while..and now I finally hear it from you

You're really naughty davika

And you…love it . Admit it

[She looks away]

Hmm…just a little

[Davika inhales then exhales smoke slowly]

Just a little,huh? But that's not enough for me…

I'm trying! Don't push me

[Davika steps closer, cigarette dangling ]

Ohh,I like pushing you…especially when you're like this cute and flustered.

We ..we need to think about tomorrow,I think we should visit my parents and talk about marriage.

Don't worry. I've got you covered ploy. I'll make sure you survive both days…and maybe have some fun alone the way.

You're really confident, aren't you?

Confident enough to do this….

You really don't play fair,do you?

[Davika smirk]

Never said I did….

[She softly exhales the cigarettes one last time]

That's the last one for tonight

Hey davika,you should too calm about the marriage,"I'm the one loosing the sleep"

I'm calm because,I already decided no matter how this started,I want to see it through with you

[Davika reaches for ploys hand]

"Even if it was just a plan at first…now it isn't, we're together for real"

Don't say things like that,you brat!, you'll make me nervous

Haha.."good,then I'll keep saying them"

Okay, I'm going to sleep

[Few moments later]

Davika watches her for a moment,her gaze tender.she knows that ploy is pretending,with a quiet sigh, davika leans closer, brushing a stray strand of hair from ploy's face

Davika softly whispers

You're really bad at pretending,you know that?

Ploy didn't dare to move,her heart racing under the blanket.

Davika leans closer, smelling her neck,she was loosing control of herself…

She slides her hand down, wrapping around ploy's perfect waist then she hugged her tightly…

Ploy was surprised by her actions,she didn't expect davika to do this…

Ploy,please don't pretend to sleep..I want you….

[Davika's voice was hoarse]

Hearing these words, ploy's hand tighten around the blanket …

Davika started to kiss her ears, slowing moving towards her neck..

Damn ploy,"you smell really good"

She started to kiss and suck her neck , leaving small bite marks , while her hand went to grab her chest….

Ahhhh… a small sound escape from ploy's mouth ,she faced davika…

Da…davi…

Davika grabbed her chin and hungrily kissed her before she could say anything…

The kiss was intense yet perfect…davika bit her lips asking for a permission to deepen the kiss and ploy…ploy gave the permission, their kissen deepen more and davika only spare ploy when both of them were gasping for the air….

Ploy… you're so sexy..

Again, she started to kiss her down to her neck biting her fiercely while her hand were touching the delicate part of her body…

But suddenly ploy grabbed her hand and gently pushed her away…

Babe…. Please calm down… [ploy was panting]

Why? Why not

[Davika asked leaning closer toward Her and scoops her chin]

Ploy knew, that Davika was out of control,her hungry eyes were devouring her…but she held it back

Ploy gently kissed her forehead

"Calm down babe, I'm only yours" but please not tonight

Then…when ploy?

Only after the marriage, please….

Davika was loosing her mind,but she also didn't want to force her to have intimacy with her

Ohh..okay I understood but you can't deny me after our wedding…

Ploy's lips curved a shy smile…

Okay.. I'll obey you from that

[Then, davika squeeze her into a bug hug and both drafted to sleep]

The next morning,ploy stirried first,her fingers brushing against the edge if the sheet and in that instant, memories of last night flashed before her eyes.

Davika's whisper,her closeness, the way davika lips found hers.

Her cheek turned pink and she quickly turned away, pretending to fix her hair as Davika shifted beside her with a sleepy smile.

"Morning…" Davika's voice was husky yet gentle.

Ploy's heart skipped a beat,"m-morning", she replied.. not daring to meet her eyes.

Davika leaned closer,"why are you so shy, my dear wife?

Ploy's blush deepened,"stop it", she muttered half hiding behind the balnket.

They both laughed quietly before getting ready to visit ploy's parents.

[Ploy's parents house]

The late morning light filled the living room with a calm glow. Ploy and davika sat side by side on the couch,close enough that their hand brushed sometimes.

Ploy's heart was still racing everytime she glanced at davika, she remembered the taste of her lips, her voice, her touch.

She quickly looked away, pretending to focus on teacup in her hands.

Her mother smiled kindly "you two look tired,long night of planning?"

Ploy almost dropped her cup,"ahhh….yes…. planning",she stammered,her cheeks heating

"You Two seems close already that's good for the mission" davika please protect my child….

Ploy glanced at davika, her heart pounding then said softly

"Mama…. it's not just for the mission anymore"

Her parents looked surprised. Davika took ploy's hand gently "we confessed",she said quietly

For a moment,no one spoke then ploy's father smiled and gave both of them hug

So it's real then?

Ploy noded shyly,her cheeks warm

Good…. Then

Also ploy had admired you for so long hahah… and now I hope you two catch ava and live your life to the fullest

Her mother eyes softened then don't wait to get married,you two should get married while ava is away…

Yeah it seems like a good idea,"your mother is right, if you both are ready then why delay?

Then let's get married tomorrow" davika adds"

Ploy's parents agreed with that"tomorrow sounds perfect "

So davika call your friends to come

She nodded

Ploy's heart fluttered as her parents went inside to prepare for tomorrow, leaving them alone on the porch. Davika leaned back in her chair, watching her with that familiar teasing smile.

"You've been quiet"

Ploy's cheeks turned pink instantly"N..no! I just.."

Davika chuckled leaning closer.."you're a trribal liar",you know that?

Ploy looked away flustered

"Stop teasing me…"someone might hear

"No one's around", davika whispered

"You're parent think we're here talking about missions, not about how shy you get when I hold you".

"Davika"! Ploy gasped, her face burning as she tried to hide behind her hands.

Davika laughed quietly, brushing her fingers over ploy's wrist.

"Relax…I'm just teasing"… but you should know that , tomorrow night, after the wedding…I won't let you escape

Ploy eyes widened…

Y.. you're impossible

Davika brushed a finger under her chin, making her look up

"Maybe but you love me anyway"

Ploy smiled shyly,her voice soft"I do"

Davika's teasing grin melted into something warmer she squeezed ploy's hand gently

"Then tomorrow you'll be mine forever"

Ploy looked up at her, heart fluttering, she leaned her head lightly again her shoulder, their hands entwined.

And for the first time, davika wasn't nervous about what came next… she was only happy certain and completely in love
