Narrator's pov

"What the fuck is going on here"

A dead person waking up at their own funeral could not compare to the expression written across the two girl's faces

"Ember!" The brunette's father yelled

Hearts were racing more than before, Gabrielle's eyes widened while her body froze still on the table, knowing someone had just walked in on her being under Ember's body, with her legs sprawled wide open

Hell, she could only thank God that it wasn't her parents

No one wants their parents walking in on them having Sex

The taller girl simply inhaled deeply before slowly removing herself from Gabrielle's body

The blonde girl was burning bright red from embarrassment, making sure to keep her head down from whoever it might be

"Yes father?" Ember grinned

At the time the embarrassment was immense, and Gabrielle could have hid as a child may have

"Jesus" Gabrielle hissed when she realized it was her boss

"It's the first goddamned day and you already have a woman in here!?" the man yelled

Gabrielle felt herself sink even deeper into her embarrassment knowing that her boss hasn't realized it was her as yet

"Correction dear father, my girlfriend" She grinned

Through her nerves, Gabrielle managed to hear words that dropped her expression to the bottom

To hear the word girlfriend from Ember had her lost in her own world, a world which moved slowly so that the day could last and enjoy time, a world where beauty was saturated and love was their anthem

Ember knew it was bold to say it so openly without ever discussing it but it was long overdue. Gabrielle was her joy, without joy every sweet thing was bitter, the wind was ice, rain was depressing in its beautiful state

Every small thing in life was a moment able to nourish the soul with Gabrielle. She found herself living with awe, humbleness, present in each moment and the gifts of life filled her

The singers lips curved into a smile when their eyes locked once again, completely forgetting there was someone in the room

"Girlfriend?" she whispered

"That is... If you'll have me" Ember muttered

Gabrielle's slight smile found itself even wider than it was, growing with every thought of her future being labelled more than Ember's lover

"I think it has a nice ring to it" Gabrielle chuckled

"Is that a yes?" Ember grinned

"I guess" Gabrielle playfully rolled her eyes but followed with a giggle

In the quiet moment, when all the world is put on pause, Ember found herself so very lucky to see right into Gabrielle's eyes, to have a wordless definition for joy

That smile etched its way onto her face and tugged at her heartstrings

But moments only last for a few seconds before all hell is loose

"Gabrielle!?" a familiar voice hissed

If looks could kill then the singer would be sliced and diced into half from the glare coming from her parents in front of her
