Veronika didn't say anything, first glancing then walking over to where Rachel's discarded clothes lay on the floor. She smelled faintly of acrid smoke.
The silence was pregnant and heavy as it hung in the air. And Rachel's cheeks flushed hotly when her mother inspected one of her costume's heeled boots, turning it over in her hands. "I'll expect you both in the kitchen in twenty minutes to explain all of... this." She waved with her hand to encompass the entirety of her daughter's room, including the broken bed. The teen partially let out the breath she had held. Veronika didn't sound angry. She'd knew if she was. "Naomi, I'll let your mother know you are staying over tonight." The knotted tension in Rachel's stomach released fully. "Nice ass, by the way." Okay, not entirely!
Naomi peeked out of Rachel's neck as soon as the door had closed behind Veronika. Her expression shone with a mixture of shame, excitement, lust, and mischief. Like a cat caught doing something wrong but didn't care. Gods, even like this, she looked hot. Rachel's eyes lidded. She hummed and pressed her girlfriend against her body, relieved that they had escaped any immediate punishment. It felt liberating to know that her world wouldn't fall away around her suddenly coming out. The madly-in-love-teen brushed her thumbs against the backs of Naomi's hands in a slow caress. She didn't resist and instead invited the rest of her fingers as they wove themselves between hers.
Languidly, Naomi stretched their arms and placed them above her sidekick's head before straddling her. The speedster's toned and naked body rose in a slow arc so Rachel could drink her in at her leisure. "Seventeen more minutes. We could stay like this." The teen considered her girlfriend's suggestion for a few seconds, then Rachel shook her head. Naomi rolled her eyes and smirked in response. Better to get this over with. If she had to do all the house chores for a month, Rachel would accept it. "It's your funeral." The teen returned the grin. Although when she tried to move, her limbs felt like jelly. She supposed a few more minutes couldn't hurt.
The remaining time they had available before their date with destiny primarily consisted of Naomi kicking her feet in the air, chin resting in her hands while she was hungrily watching her newly minted girlfriend struggle with her costume. It really showed off her perfect heart-shaped ass, the teen noted. Once they were both dressed, Naomi hugged Rachel from behind, her arms clinging to the teen's super-powered torso and abs. "Never realized how long I waited for you to ask me out. Even if we overdid it, I don't regret a single second showing you how I felt for you."
"Not your bed that we broke." Rachel pointed out dryly, but she felt the same way. Naomi slipped around one of her arms, briefly leaning her weight against the limb before reaching down to hold Rachel's hand. They were doing this together. "Mom is waiting."
And not just Rachel's mother either. Both the girls' hearts stopped for a second as they could see both Superluminal and Athena sitting together at the kitchen table. They were practically rubbing their shoulders together by how close they were. And they were also holding hands while sharing a somewhat sheepish smile as they met their daughter's disbelieving gazes. Rachel tightened her grip around her girlfriend's hand, silently asking if she knew about this. The return squeeze told her Naomi didn't and was as caught off-guard as she was.
