Chapter Text
During those winter mornings, when light barely passed through the curtains and reflected on Natalya's silver hair, Erika felt like she was the luckiest person alive. She loved watching her girlfriend sleep peacefully, a sight she was the only one to witness. Natalya was always so reserved and often frowning when she was surrounded by people that weren't Erika or her siblings, but when she was sleeping her face was completely smooth. Sometimes, when she dreamt of something she particularly liked, a little smile would take place on her features.
Erika smiled when she saw her shivering. Adorable.
She adjusted the blanket on her naked shoulders. They probably shouldn't have slept in their underwear as mornings in December were quite cold, but this was not something they had thought about last night. She blushed slightly when thinking about the night they had spent together, her heart racing in her chest.
Just thinking about it made her chest swell with joy. Even though her brother had thought she was crazy when she had begun dating Natalya, she had always been sure of her feelings for her. No matter what people told her, trying to prevent her from pursuing their relationship, Erika had never felt happier. And today, now that they finally had moved together, she was truly happy she had not listened to them.
Smiling, she caressed Natalya's cheek to slowly wake her up. It worked as a few minutes later the other woman frowned slightly before blinking slowly, opening her eyes sleepily. When she noticed Erika's smile, she closed her eyes again before getting closer, almost cuddling her.
“Go back to sleep.” She said before trying to do so.
Erika laughed softly before putting her arms around her waist. She was truly the luckiest woman on Earth.
