Chapter Text
The white haired girl looked around the room before getting off the bed and sliding under it. Vanilla stood up, walked over to the door, and opened it. She poked her head out of her room and saw a pink haired, blue eyed woman wearing a black suit and a black bowler hat enter the living room.
“It’s been a while since we’ve last seen each other, hasn’t it, Vanilla?” She said with a thick French accent before closing and locking the door.
“Y-Yes. It’s certainly been a few months since I last saw you.” She said, stepping out of her room and approaching the woman. Once she was close to her, the white haired girl wrapped her arms around her. “You’re home earlier than expected.”
“Yes. I came a few days earlier than planned. At first, I was going to tell you about this, but I decided it’d be better if I kept it a secret from you. That way you’d be surprised when I came home.” She hugged her niece back. “Did you make yourself breakfast already?”
“No. I was about to, but then you showed up.”
“That’s fine. I’ll buy food for the both of us. You can go back to your room if that’s what you really want.” She said, letting go of her niece.
“All right, aunt Bel. Tell me when you got the food.”
The pink haired woman nodded her head before taking a seat on the couch. Vanilla walked back into her room and closed and locked the door. She walked over to her bed and sat down on it.
“Oreo… the worst possibility has come true. My aunt has returned.”
“What? She doesn’t know I’m here, right?”
“No, at least as far as I know. She hasn’t dropped any hints of knowing that I’ve invited someone to live with me.”
“Now that she’s back, what do you plan to do with me? Obviously, you can’t just tell her that you’re dating a girl, and if you told her I was your roommate or a friend who lives with you, she’ll get suspicious.”
“I’m not sure. I think I’ll just have to keep you a secret from her. Obviously you won’t be able to sleep in her room anymore, so from now on, we’ll just have to share a bed together!”
Before Oreo could say another word, there was a sudden knock at her girlfriend’s door.
“Do you have a friend over, Vanilla? Or did you perhaps make a boyfriend while I was gone?”
The white haired girl’s face flushed at her aunt’s words.
“No. I’m just talking to myself.”
Bel walked away from her niece’s room.
“As much as I’d like to spend some time with Bel now that she’s back, we have more important things to do, like apologizing to Murray and Vienna.“ She stood up. “You exit by the window. I’ll leave through the front door.”
“All right.” Oreo said as she slowly got out from under the bed.
She walked over to the window, opened it, and then stepped out. Once she was outside, she slowly closed it to not make too much noise. Vanilla walked over to her room’s door, opened it, and then stepped outside.
“Auntie, I just remembered something. I promised a friend of mine that I was going to eat breakfast with her.”
“Oh, I see. Tell Keebler I said hi to her.” Bel calmly said.
“…I’ll be sure to…” She lied, a frown spreading across her face.
Vanilla walked over to the front door, opened it, and then stepped outside. She closed it before walking over to where Oreo was standing.
“Come on, let’s go.” Vanilla said as she walked forward.
Her girlfriend quickly followed after her.
