"Laura, you're not going to find anything good in there. It's all just a bunch of old security camera footage." Laura looks back at the moody girl in leather pants.

"I need to find something, I am really depressed and I need something happy to watch damn it." She turns back and continues shuffling through a pile that sits at her knees in height.

"You aren't going to find a -" Carmilla was cut off as the excited brunette popped up with a VHS in her hand.

"Ha! Mulan! My favorite" She spins around and puts the tape into the VCR and hits play. Carmilla lies back against a sleeping pallet that she had made for Laura. Laura turns back around with an infectious smile that even the broody vampire can't help but smile with her, her cold heart pounding in her chest. Carmilla then pats the spot next to her, moving the blanket around to Laura can be a little more comfortable. The excited college student practically bounced over to the open spot. The movie starts, however Laura's chatter does not.

"I absolutely love this movie, teaching girls that they can be just as good, strong, and smart as any man." Laura looks at Carmilla and scoots a little closer.

"What is your favorite movie?" Carmilla answers, still looking at the TV screen.

"I don't have one." She pokes her chin and pushes it so she is facing forward.

"Watch your movie cupcake." Laura keeps her head turned this time and leans against the wall. Carmilla throws the blanket over Laura's legs.

"Thank you" the smaller girl looks up at her movie companion, then slides over and lays her head down on her shoulder. Carmilla slowly puts her arm around Laura hoping not to go too far or make things weird. She didn't want to ruin what they had at this moment, she wanted to keep Laura safe and keep her by her side. Laura had saved her life; she killed a man for her. There was nothing she could do to repay her; she was forever in Laura's debt. The funniest thing about it was that she didn't care. She wanted to be by Laura's side, either as her girlfriend, her best friend, or even just as her body guard. She wanted to be there to make sure that Laura was okay. She felt it was her fault that Laura had lost her innocents. As soon as the thought enters her mind Laura starts to stir.

"Carm…. baby, just one more time, please…." Laura moves a bit, pushing closer to Carmilla.

"Babe, I miss you so much, please ….wet…" Carmilla moves over a bit and shakes Laura in hopes of waking her up.

"Laura, wake up you're dreaming," she tries to shake her harder.

"a really good dream, but not the point. Laura wake up, I can't just sit here and listen to you dream about this." She adds. Then the raven haired beauty sucks in a quick gasp of air as a small hand snakes up her leather plaid thigh getting much closer to home than she thought was appropriate for a sleeping girl to be doing. As much as she wanted her to keep going she didn't think it was right to take advantage. She leans Laura up against the wall and stands up quickly.

"I will not be the bad guy right now. Damn you and your fucking wet dreams!" She realizes that she is yelling at a passed out girl that most likely hadn't slept in all the time they have been there. She leans back against the wall and pulls Laura's head down to lie in her lap. She points a finger down at her as if the young girl were awake.

"Now calm down and don't you dare try anything again." Carmilla then starts to run her fingers through the sleeping girl's hair. After a few minutes of watching the cartoon movie she also starts to fall asleep trying to think of what she was going to do about food for the girl and her mad scientist friend.

(AFTER THE MOVIE ENDS)

The girls are awoken by the VCR. The tape was over and the screen was making a terrible fuzzy noise. Carmilla covers her ears and growls at the damned black and white spotted screen and Laura quickly hops up and hits the eject button. The now cranky vampire uncovers her ears and grumbles under her breath something about how this generation had no respect to the beauty of silence.

"Sorry Carm I fell asleep." Laura moves a piece of her hair out of her face and puts it behind her ear as she looks down at the groggy vampire.

"It's fine, you weren't the only one who fell asleep. Sleeping also wasn't the only thing you were trying to do." Laura looks at her puzzled.

"Nothing, it's nothing lets find something to eat." Carmilla stands up with out making eye contact with Laura and walks out of the surveillance room. Laura gives how she woke up a second thought and realizes that she woke up in Carm's lap. She quickly runs to catch up with her sleeping partner.

"Wait are you mad because I was in your lap? Look I'm sorry, I didn't mean to i just fell asleep." The taller girl whips around and stopsLaura in her tracks.

"Stop, I'm not upset, I'm not mad. I'm just… conflicted." She then turns back around and heads up a fleet of stairs. With Laura hot on her trail.

"Wait, what are you conflicted about? What is there for you to be conflicted about. You aren't the one who killed a man." The college student then looks down at the moss growing in the corner of the stairs and stops following the girl in front of her. As soon as she heard Laura's foot steps stop, Carmilla turns around and looks down at the smaller girl and quickly gathers her up in her arms.

"It's okay Laura, I have told you that what you did wasn't your fault. You did what you had to do to save me." Hearing it out loud from her own lips makes her dead heart pound so hard she can hear her blood flowing through her ears.

"I just really need you to stop feeling sorry for saving me because it's a real hit at my ego." This causes she smaller girl in the embrace to laugh. They separate and Carmilla lightly kisses Laura on the top of the head and takes a small whiff of her hair. Her nose wrinkles up she pulls her head away quickly.

"After the food situation is fixed you need a shower short stuff." She then hold's the brunette away from her body in the same fashion you would hold trash away from you. Laura gives the raven haired beauty a light punch to the arm as the giggle at each other.
