01. First Kiss

Maria’s palms are sweating and she doesn’t know what to say.

With a man it’s somewhat easier, invite them into your room for a drink.

Lita smiles at her, and leans forward giving her a short firm kiss on the lips.

Maria has to resist the urge to fall over, her legs trembling as she pulls back and smiles back at her quickly.

“I was thinking, we could go on a second date if you would like,” Lita offers, her eyes shining happily.

Maria nods slowly, struggling with her words once again before spits out a an answer, “Yes, of course.”


06. Falling

Maria isn’t as stupid as people thinks she is, and it’s one of the first things Lita notices about her.

If anything Maria is kind, compassionate and sometimes witty.

Lita has caught her staring more than once on their dates but she watches the other woman just as much.

Her stunning eyes, the way her hair curls lightly against her neck when it’s free from being styled.

Maria makes her happy, happier than most anyone ever has.

Wrapping her arms around the younger woman’s waist from behind Lita drops a soft kiss on her neck.

“I love you,” she whispers, smiling.


08. Sleep

Lita knows its more than a little creepy that she sometimes watches Maria when she sleeps but she just can’t help herself.

It takes a lot of trust to fall asleep in someone’s arms, she knows this and Maria trusts her completely.

She wonders if Maria knows that she mumbles in her sleep, that she makes noises.

If it’s a nightmare sometimes there will be frown lines in between her brows.

If it’s a pleasant dream she smiles, making happy noises.

On the odd occasion she will catch her name on the other woman’s breath and it makes her smile.


09. Fever

Maria gets sick more than anyone else she has ever known and it worries her.

Lita doesn’t know what to do other than sit beside her and run a wet cloth across her forehead and hope her fever breaks soon.

“You’re worrying again,” Maria scolds, her normally bright eyes seeming dull and listless.

Lita manages a small smile and brushes a kiss across her forehead. “I just can’t help myself.”

“Well stop it,” Maria’s eyes close and she drifts back to sleep.

Her fever breaks at 3 am finally, after a visit from the Doctor and Lita weeps in relief.


07. Forever

They don’t get married and it’s okay for both of them.

Maria does however suggest buying a house together and after months of nagging Lita relents.

She doesn’t like the idea of being a house wife, because Maria still wrestles and Lita spends days on her own after retiring, or with the band.

Maria laughs and reminds her it’s not like they’re married, and she’s definitely not male.

They have small arguments about who will do the laundry, or the dishes.

In the end Maria washes, Lita dries and the same goes for the laundry.

They both fold the clothes, stealing kisses in between.

10. Contentment

Maria remembers a time when she was too nervous to talk to her lover, or even walk by her.

She laughs when Lita recounts their first interactions to friends, sneaking her hand into the other woman’s under the table and squeezing tightly.

They live a happily together, two dogs, a cat, little gerbil which Lita didn’t want at first until Maria told her she could name it.

Lita names it Dumanellis, and it fits into their life nicely.

Maria doesn’t remember ever considering anyone else to be with.

As she sits next to her life partner, she feels content and happy.
