[info]texasranger:

Characters: Hunter & Michiko [& Pascual].
Setting: Quodpot field and grounds, early Wednesday night.
Content: Hunter and Michi are just chilling after practice, when things go drastically wrong. But also sort of right.
Rating: NSFW for violence and so such.


It didn't matter that they didn't even have class until tomorrow morning, and it mattered even less that it would be a little while before their first Quodpot match. Hunter couldn't be anywhere but on the field working out tonight. It was hard to believe she was really the captain of her team, for the second time in her life so far. There were a lot of shit things that could be said about Hunter, but that she was a bad captain was not one of them. It was one of the few things that she actually had a remotely serious passion about, causing her to actually exert her effort and do her best at it. She had no intention of letting the team lose this year.

Having Michi finally in university and on the team to back her up, just like the old days in Roanoke, was even more amazing added into her equation. But Hunter would have been lying if she said that she hadn't noticed that the other girl had been acting somewhat distinctly un-Michi in the last while. Something was off. Even over the summer, things hadn't seemed well, and although her friend was trying to act like nothing was up, Hunter was onto her.

Water bottle in hand, the tall blonde slung her bag over her shoulder as they were finishing up and Michiko was lighting up a cigarette. "Yeah, run 'round and get all in shape then go and light up," the older girl joked, cracking a grin as she reached out and grabbed the smoke from her friend.

"I'll make a deal," she reasoned, not waiting really for Michiko to answer on whether she agreed to the deal on not before she went on, "I'll give it back," she went on slowly, taking a drag and holding it before exhaling to the side. "If ya go ahead and tell me what's goin' on with you. Girl talk and shit, got me?"

Michiko was glad to be back at school, at school she had Hunter and Mack, at school she had a place where she belonged, at school she could get away from everything. Blue Ridge had always felt like home but even now she felt like she had to dodge things constantly. She couldn't keep lying though, so when Hunter asked her what was up she knew it was time to get serious.

She tried to reach up to grab the cigarette from the taller girl but failed so she plunked down dramatically and pouted. "But we came all the way out to my favorite sneaky smokey spot," she tried to give Hunter the wibble lip but she knew it wasn't going to work.

Hunter was silently pleased with the smoke held out of Michi's reach, and she took another drag, narrowing her eyes slightly at the younger girl. "C'mon, no fuckin' around.. be like, serious. Pretend I'm Mack, I'm serious, real serious," the blonde suggested, straightening up to her full height and putting on her best serious face.

It only lasted a few moments before breaking though, and she looked down at Michi with a pouty lip of her own. "Serious, jus' tell me now so I don't have to tickle ya or somethin'.. can't promise I'll be careful while I do it! Things get grabbed, y'all!" she joked.

"Promise?" she grinned, raising an eyebrow at Hunter's half threat of tickles.

"Oh, oh alright," she grumbled, kicking at the ground with her sneaker. She sighed and leaned back, closing her eyes. "I broke up with Pas."

She immediately found herself taking a sip of water so she wouldn't have to answer any questions immediately.

"Would I lie?" Hunter grinned back easily, her own eyebrows waggling in return. She was once again silently pleased when Michiko finally gave in, just as she knew the other girl would. Between the three of them, they and Mack always had a way of getting things out of each other when it mattered most.

Watching her friend close her eyes, the blonde snorted loudly when Michi finally came out with it. "That's it?" she asked skeptically.

She shook her head, clearly dismissive, and used her free hand to make some absent sort of shoving off gesture in the air between them. "Fuck that douchebag anyhow, ain't nobody who give no fuck about him," she assured her, cracking a weak smile. She had never really cared for Pascual or his attitude ever since she had known him. He had been in her grade all through school, though she had never really taken the time to talk to him until he started dating Michi. And talking to him just made her like him even less.

He was just a jackass, really, in her opinion. She didn't like his attitude, or the way he looked at her. It gave her the creeps or something.

Pascual had been an escape at the beginning but as the time went on he became more possessive of her. Michi felt like an object when he was around. He was abusive, the way he talked to her, the way he roughed her up when things weren't going his way. She had finally snapped and fought her way out of their relationship, but he was still there, creeping his way around campus.

"Hunt," Michi said quietly, not quite able to meet the other girl's eyes. She took her wand out of her bag and held it to her own face. A quick siphoning spell took away the make up that had been concealing her black eye. She finally rose her head. "I'm scared."

Hunter has felt that maybe that would be the end of it. She had gotten to the source, should have known it would be him, and now they would smoke their cigarette and be done with it. Never one for letting her feelings and mushy emotions get the best of her, the blonde just smoked idly until Michi spoke again.

She looked down as the younger girl said her name, furrowing her brow a bit as she took out her wand. She saw the black eye through a cloud of smoke, her own exhale, and at first thought it was an illusion of the light or something. It had to be, because there was no way he would have been stupid enough to put his hands on her.

It only took a second between her disbelief and her realization, and then the tall girl was off. She had a feeling she'd have detention before classes even started. "Son of a bitch," she hissed angrily, quickly tossing the still lit cigarette into the grass and then dropping down beside Michi. She pulled the other girl into a one armed hug, briefly making sure no one else was around before she pressed her lips to the side of her temple. "Go to my room, 'kay? I gotta-- I gotta go talk with this fuckin' guy."

As soon as Hunter was at her side she could feel herself melting into the other girl. She felt silly for thinking it but she knew nothing bad would happen to her there. She grasped at Hunter's shirt when she said she would go talk to Pascual. "Don't... don't go," she choked out.

Before she could get anywhere she heard someone trampling through the woods. It wasn't a well known path and her heart sank. It had to be him. Pascual walked right into the clearing just seconds later with that angry look in his eyes. "Look what the fuck we have here," he sing songed.

Genuinely surprised, and also more angry, with how on edge Michi was acting about this guy showed Hunter that the situation was serious. Her friend was pleading with her not to go, but she was seeing red and knocking Pascual out way the only constant coherent thought in her mind.
"Look, I'll be okay, girl! Don't worry 'bout nothing, 'kay?" she insisted finally, trying to act cheerful in an effort to comfort the other girl, despite how angry she was. Her free hand was clenched into a fist in her lap as Michi grabbed her shirt. "I'll go an' like.. get Mack. Just go to my room, got it?"

She knew her blonde counterpart would be down to beat some ass when she got wind of this anyway.

Hunter almost, just almost, got startled when Pascual appeared in their clearing. She didn't really have much time to calculate what she had planned, so she just clambered to her feet instead, fists already clenching and unclenching more as they hung at her sides.

"Dunno, looks like some fag who's gunna get his fuckin' skull cracked if he don't turn his ass around and go back to the damn school," she retorted easily, clenching her teeth as she glowered at him.

Michi didn't want anyone else to have to fight her fights, she had been too proud to ask for help in the past and all it earned her were a few black eyes and a mild concussion. She knew she had to let go.

As Pascual stood in front of them she felt her whole body tense. She stood up next to Hunter and tried to look brave even though she felt about three inches tall. "Go back to school," she said in a shaky voice.

Pascual grinned and took a step forward. "This is just fuckin' priceless Michiko. You called in your giant Amazon to help?"

"Stay away from me. I said this was over," she barked.

"Over? It's not over until I say it's over," his eyes flicked back to the blonde. He knew she was a tough bitch but he was sure he could handle both her and Michiko.

She had been about to point out that if Amazon was supposed to be an insult, he was trying to offend the wrong Amazon. But then Michi was beside her, and the blonde took a step forward, keeping her at her side but keeping herself a little bit in front of the other girl.

"Y'all heard the lady, she didn't stammer, asshole. Don't make me repeat it again.. I hate repeatin' myself," she stated simply, fiercely staring at him. If he wanted to get down, she was ready. If she couldn't beat him, she'd just have to die trying.

When Pascual looked at her, Hunter acted without thinking. Clenching her fist even tighter, nails digging into her palm, she launched it right at his face, putting her weight behind it. Feeling her fist meeting his teeth hurt, but it left her extremely satisfied. "She said it's fuckin' over, dildo! Take the fuck off," she growled, reaching over and roughly grabbing the front of his shirt. "Dig it?"

Michi could feel herself getting that little brave spark back as she stood by her friend. They were going to get out of this one way or another and there would be no more shrinking away from his raised fist. She couldn't help the slight flinch when Hunter's fist connected with his mouth though.

Pascual tasted blood, smirking at the blonde, blood dripped down his lip. "So typical, gonna sweep in like a god damn superhero and steal my girl, are you?"

"I'm not your fuckin' girl!" Michi hauled out and punched him hard in the jaw. "You're worthless and mean!" she spat.

Pascual tried to tear away from Hunter but she had a firm grip on his shirt so he swung widly, desperate to contact with something be it Hunter or Michi.

If she had been in the mood to crack a joke or a smile, Hunter would have again pointed out that Pascual's insults missed the mark. Hell, it was sort of why she and Mack wanted to be aurors so bad.. they wouldn't be really super, but the hero part would do. "Like fuckin' Wonder Woman on your ass," she assured him, expression deadpan.

She let out a low whistle of admiration as Michi struck him, and she noted his bleeding lip seem to intensify. "Atta girl," the blonde encouraged her, still holding his shirt. His struggling against her grip was great, and she reached out to grab on with her second hand as well. She pulled him closer, barely wincing as he finally got her, one of his fists connecting solidly with the side of her head.

"Mad, huh? Don't like a real taste of your own medicine?" she asked seriously, deciding to shake him violently twice by the front of his shirt. "Huh!? Don't like it when bitches hit back, do ya?"

Shoving him away from herself, Hunter stepped back and raised her fists, ready for a real fight. "She ain't your girl, so this is your last chance to piss off 'fore I break your legs," she only half-joked.

She would have laughed at their dialogue had she been paying attention but her focus was on beating the shit out of Pascual. Normally she would try to diffuse the situation but it had been going on too long and she believed this was her only viable option. She beamed a little at Hunter's approval.

Pascual spit a mouthful of blood on the ground and looked at Hunter disdainfully as she questioned him. "I'd like to see you try you fuckin' bitch," he said raising his own fists.

Michi took a step back, she didn't want to get in the way but she was ready to fight too, her own fists clenched at her sides. "She'll break your legs and I'll fuckin' squash your nuts like silly puddy you piece of garbage," she threatened.

Though she had somewhat begun to outgrow her penchant for solving problems with her fists, Hunter still believed situations existed where there was no other solution. Pascual had hurt Michi, and she was going to hurt him, an eye for an eye so to speak. She hoped that getting his ass tanned by a girl, even if she was an Amazon, would leave him shamed enough to know how it felt.

"That's what she fuckin' said, buddy!" Hunter crowed as Michi chimed in with her own threat. She gave the other girl a nudge with her elbow, though she fists stayed up. "Fair warnin' before I get wild, right?"

Her whole body felt like it was vibrating with anticipation, just the one punch and a little shaking around was nearly justice enough. God help him, she decided, if he tried to make a grab for the girl standing at her side. It was time for him to pick on someone his own size.

"C'mon pussy, I don't get all night here!" she taunted him a little smugly.

Michi gave a nervous laugh and smiled at Hunter. It wasn't the first time that they had beaten someone up together but this was different. "At least we tried to be civil."

Pascual eyed them both cautiously. He was already bleeding pretty profusely from his lip but he wasn't going to let two chicks decide when it was over for him. He grabbed Michiko's tiny wrist, twisting it violently. "We're out of here," he pulled her hard.

Michi winced in pain as she felt her wrist pop but she wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of tears or yelps. She bit her lip and wailed him in the head once more, knocking him slightly off kilter. She stumbled back and fell to the ground, landing on her backside. "I said fuck off!" she hollered, pushing herself up with her good arm.

That was possibly the worst decision that Pascual could have made in their current situation. The feeling of conradery that they briefly felt with their little banter was broken, and the blonde was seeing red. "You lousy slimy motherfuck," the blonde growled, stepping forward with no hesitation. Any lingering restraint that she had left in her wasdisappearing by the second.

Once Michi fell back, Hunter hesitated for a moment on whether or not to make sure she was okay. But then she saw Pascual's face again as he was knocked off of her, and she got even more furious.

"Y'all forgot one fuckin' thing," the blonde shouted, roughly grabbing him by his shirt again. She pulled hard, like she was trying to yank him up off of the ground. "She was my fuckin' girl first and nobody fucks with my fuckin' girl!"

Shoving him back roughly, Hunter crouched down to her bag. Reaching into it, she grabbed out her wand quickly and kicking the bag aside and out of her way as she raised it against him. "Give me one reason here not to curse ya back into next goddamn week, fuckface. One reason, c'mon already!"

Pascual felt the color leaving his face, he had never been so scared in his life. The Texan was angry and there really was no telling what she was capable of when she was that pissed off. He stumbled when she pushed him back and tried to scramble for his wand when he saw that Hunter had hers at the ready. Fuck me, he thought as it dawned on him that he had left it in his room. "Michiko, gimme your wand," he demanded.

"Sure," she grinned pulling her wand out of the waistband of her shorts. Without any warning she flicked it with malice without saying a word. Pascual reeled back as if he had been smashed in the face by a giant swarm of bees. He slapped at his own face, trying to ward of the invisible stinging sensation on his skin.

"You fucking bitch!" Pascual yelled, again swinging wildly. He barely caught Michiko's cheek with a weak back hand.

Hunter laughed loudly as Pascual slapped at his own face, taking her opportunity to step forward and kick him in his nearest shin. She still gripped her wand tightly, but she was still a muggle in her most basic instincts. What she could do with one flick of her wand was nice, but it wasn't as fun as using her own bare hands.

It was just nice to know she had it, feeling the weight in her tense hand. When Pascual's hand collided with Michiko's face, Hunter's eyes narrowed. He just didn't learn, did he? She thought he might finally back off with his tail between his legs and accept he wasn't going to win against them, but the guy was a trooper. She had to give him that.

"What did I just tell ya?!" she snapped, lifting her wand and giving a it a flick. "Diffindo!" she blurted, the first spell that popped into her mind. Almost immediately, blood blossomed behind the pantleg of the shin she had kicked earlier.

Pascual dropped to the ground, feeling the blood ooze out of his shin was enough to stop him. "You fucking psychos!" he declared from the ground.

Michi walked over to him and kicked dirt in his face. She looked down at him, pathetic and bleeding on the ground and placed her hands on her hips. "If you ever come never me again, I'll make it ten times worse," she said firmly, then she spat in his face and turned on her heel. "Let's get the fuck out of here," she said quietly to Hunter.

Pascual was still raging incoherently on the ground but she wasn't going to give him the time of the day.

Hunter scrunched up her face as she watched him squirming on the ground. It should have brought her some joy, but he mostly just disgusted her. She was proud of Michi though, and couldn't deny herself a wide grin as she walked over just as the younger girl spat into his face. "You got it babe," she agreed amicable enough, placing a hand onto her friend's shoulder and squeezing it gently once.

She took another look down at him and smiled wider, one of her typical goofy grins but so tinted with her smugness right then. "Don't go and rat on us now, pussy! You'll be okay, and besides, you ain't gunna get me.. I am a goddamn psycho, an' I fuck around with the Head Girl's bitch, I'm on this shit," she informed him matter-of-factly.

"Remember what we said! Ten times worse, fucknuts!" she sing-songed, imitating his own tone when he had first approached them, expecting them to back down. Turning on her heel, she grabbed her bag and slung it over her shoulder, catching up to Michi and pulling her arm around her as she had done earlier. "Your wrist okay, kid?"

Michi's heart was racing as she walked toward the school, she just wanted to get away from him. She heard Hunter telling him off and couldn't help but smile triumphantly. Michi leaned into Hunter when the older girl put her arm around her and she noticed for the first time since it happened that her wrist really was hurting.

She held it out to inspect and it was already swelling and turning purple. "Motherfucker," she said quietly. "I think he broke it..." she was about to take her wand to it when something occurred to her.

"Can I stay with you tonight?"

Hunter was tempted to turn back and go stomp on him a little for good measure, but she stayed steady, arm pulling Michi closer still as they walked back. She looked at the injured wrist, frowning deeply. "Killer," she lamented.

"If we can't fix it up, we'll go to Mack," she suggested. "She's good with that kind of shit. She hangs out with that kid all of the time learning shit I guess.. follows her to the library enough. Seriously though, six times she fixed my broken nose in one week! It's not even crooked!"

When Michi asked if she could stay over, Hunter raised her eyebrows at her expectantly as if she were crazy. "I told ya to go to my room, didn't I?" she grinned. "Course you can, boo."

"That's fucking impressive," Michi grinned, feeling a little better already. She could ignore her wrist for now and just revel in the fact that they just kicked the shit out of Pascual and he deserved. She sighed contentedly.

Michi smiled and quite unexpectedly stood on her tips toes as they were walking and planted a kiss on Hunter's cheek. She blushed furiously when she got back on solid ground and hid behind a stray hair. "Thanks Hunt," she said quietly.

"She has her moments," Hunter sighed playfully, shaking her head at the thought of her best friend. She was a piece of work, that was for sure. She was pretty content herself, her wand tucked away safely in the waistband of her shorts now and her hands stuffed into her pockets.

When Michi stood up onto her toes and placed the kiss on her cheek, even Hunter felt her face flushing a bit. "Wonder Woman at your service," she replied casually, trying to play off her embarrassment and flushed cheeks. There was really no denying the little fluttering in her chest, as much as she sort of wanted to.

"You want the bed to yourself? I can bust out the sleepin' bag.. you know I love that fuckin' thing."

"You were like dang freight train," she said still trying to hide her reddening face. She didn't know how it was possible but she still got butterflies in her stomach despite the fact that they had just had a violent show down in the woods with her ex.

"If you love it so much why don't you marry it," she teased, poking her friend in the side. "My butt aint that big, we can share," she could feel her face still getting redder.

"Bang bang! Not a fucking chance!" she declared in agreement, whipping both hands out of her pockets and making pistols with them. It was funny, she always got such a rush after a good fight, especially if she won. It left her feeling hyper and generally just alive. Being with Michi helped.

Flinching with a little laugh as Michi prodded her side, the blonde reached out to give the younger girl a playful shove. "Maybe I will marry it and I ain't even gunna invite ya 'cos you'd just make a scene," she teased back, tongue poking out.

When Michi suggested sharing, Hunter grinned widely without even thinking about it, giving a nervous little scoff of a laugh. "Yeah sure, baboon ass. Whatever ya fuckin' say," she went on, trying to keep the mood light. Keep it light and ignore the fact her heart was pounding a little hard. The fight hadn't even phased her, but this banter in the wake of their hyped up victory was killing her.

She laughed brightly at that. She was feeling pretty up, like she was on top of the world and nothing could tear them down.

Michi giggled and threw her head back. "Of course I would make a scene but who else has the class to decorate a sleeping bag wedding?" she snorted. "It comes alone with the territory!"

"Heeey!" she said indignantly. "It aint like a baboons, it's like a... like a bubble," she laughed, hip checking Hunter as they walked along.

"Y'all are gunna decorate my wedding for sure. No other bitch for the job," Hunter replied with surprising seriousness. But it was probably true, it was just how things worked. The events committee for example worked for two reasons; Michi's stylistic choices and Hunter's constant badgering of Sera to have the student government up their funding. They just worked together.

"Oh yeah 'cos a bubble-butt is so much sexier, right?" she laughed, trying and failing to dodge Michi's check. She stumbled a bit instead, still laughing. "I don't care how big your ass is though, bitch, you're still the bees knees to me."

They were almost back to the field edge now, and Hunter caught herself taking a cautious glance backwards. She didn't want this to end, the mood was so much better, back to normal. She was relieved to see empty woods behind them. "I meant what I said earlier," she blurted, overcome by her relief for a moment. "About you bein'.. my girl first. Ya were, guess I'll always have your back and shit."

Michi giggled. "Of course I am. It's going to be pimp," she said simply. "Glitter, cowboy hats, the works..." she grinned. "It's gonna be classy as fuck."

She snorted and looked back at her butt. "Well... bubble is better than nothing." Then she blanched a bit. "Yeah, you're the bees knees to me too."

Michiko's demeanor changed completely, her eyes went soft and she couldn't help the goofy grin that was spreading across her lips. "You were my first girl too Hunt, I... you're always gonna... be here," she said smacking her own chest lightly. She felt silly and stupid, flustered she looked behind them quickly, checking for signs of Pascual. He wasn't there and she was relieved but then she remembered she had just said something incredibly corny and blushed all over again.

Hunter swallowed thickly, still staring behind them a little bit before finally turning back to Michi. She was never normally one to get all weird and emotional like this, but there was just no sense in trying to hide it. She fought for her friends all of the time, but she had never gotten quite as riled up as she had tonight.

That was just what Michiko did to her. They had been broken up for a while, but she had always felt especially protective of the other girl, even though she knew that she could hold her own in the end. The idea of him messing with her, of him ever putting his fist to her, made her blood boil all over again and she clenched and unclenched her fists absently.

She hated the conflicted feelings inside of her, and she was never one to have much patience with anything. Turning her head a bit to look at Michi, she gave her a sort of sheepish look. It looked, and felt odd, on the normally boisterous girl. "I'm gunna do somethin' stupid, 'kay, but ya gotta just go with it," she informed her finally.

She shifted the bag on her shoulder again, and stepped in closer, stooping a little bit to press their foreheads together. The blonde hesitated for just a split second, reminding herself that certain actions couldn't be undone even in the heat of the moment, before pressing her lips firmly against Michi's, pulling the younger girl closer still by the front of her shirt.

Michi smiled when Hunter warned her, she really shouldn't be surprised about anything the other girl did but then...

Her head was spinning a little as the other girls lips met her own, without even thinking she was kissing Hunter back. Her arms went around Hunter's neck and she pressed her lips more firmly against the other girls.

It had been a while since they had kissed, really kissed and not a drunken peck on the lips at a party, but it still gave Hunter the same feeling. Like she was a junior again, except that she hadn't needed to crouch down quite as much then. It had been an inch or two ago at least.

Smiling lazily as she finally broke off the kiss, mostly for air, the blonde laughed a little. "Sorry," she offered, not really sounding it. She still held the front of the other girl's shirt, twisting it absently around her index finger. "Fighting makes me horny, it's adrenaline man, like.. electricity," she added absently, nodding her head in agreement with her own words.

"No you're not," Michi said a mischievous quirk to her lips. She gently twisted her fingers into Hunter's blonde hair, smiling. She hadn't felt this giddy since she was a sophomore, stealing kisses on the quodpot field when no one else was looking. It was different but familiar.

"It aint adrenaline either," she reached up on her tip toes and placed a softer kiss against the other girl's lips. Michi's lips only linger for a few moments before she was flat footed again in front of Hunter. "At some point we have to stop kidding ourselves."

Hunter wanted to argue with what the younger girl suggested, but she was never one for denying the truth of a matter. She was straight up, always, speaking her mind without a second of cursory thought. Why was this different? It was the damn fluttering in her stomach that was getting her. She wanted to punch herself in the gut a little to try and calm it.

"No, I guess it ain't," she relented quietly, with a quirky little smile as she looked at the other girl. She closed her eyes briefly as Michi kissed her softly again, and she felt the butterflies in her stomach taking flight again.

"Guess we might as well say it theb 'cos.. I really wanna be with ya I guess," she said simply, turning to glance back toward the school, squinting in that direction and avoiding Michi's eyes. She swallow thickly again, trying to keep up a nonchalant tone and expression. It was all she could do not to kiss her again.

"I'd never-- I know I wasn't.. a real good girlfriend before, but I ain't a fuckin' kid no more.. I just fought a fuckin' monster and won. I wanna protect y'all from like.. all the fuckin' monsters you gotta deal with. I do."

Michi bit the inside of her lip nervously as she listened to Hunter. It was strange that the two of them were suddenly so shy and silly but it was humbling to know they could both make each other feel that way. She flushed a little when Hunter said she wanted to be with her.

She rested her head against the blonde's shoulder and sighed contentedly. "I want you to be there with me Hunt, I don't trust anyone else... I never... I never felt this way about anyone else," she said quietly.

Hunter felt her heart racing, similar to the way it did before and after a good Quodpot game. There was something distinctly different about it though, this was almost a little better. She still felt as electric and hyped as she did earlier, but on ten fold, grinning wildly as Michi's head found her shoulder. "Is that a real life 'yes' then?" she asked, feeling and hoping she knew the answer.

Mack would probably rip on her for being such a sap later, but her best friend knew how she felt about their other best friend. So much as she tried to act like a tough guy all of the time, her affection for Michiko had always sort of shined through. She didn't hate all of Michi's boyfriends all as much as Pascual, but she had never really liked any of them. No one seemed good enough.

Michi felt warm all over, she just wanted to stay there all night holding onto Hunter like it was the only thing that mattered. She smiled and gave a little giggle. "Yes, a real life proper yes," she said nuzzling Hunter's neck.

She knew it was silly but she hadn't felt so at peace in a long time.

Laughing lightly as Michi nuzzled at her neck, Hunter squeezed her eyes shut tightly. "Sweet," she whispered back contently, reaching up and wrapping her arms loosely around the younger girl. She gave her a comforting little squeeze, hands absently tracing over her back as they stood there.

She was reluctant to break the embrace herself, but knowing they had to go and do something with the other girl's wrist. She was starting to get a little headache herself, now that the height of the fight was behind her. Pascual had gotten in a few good knocks, and her head was thick but far from invincible.

"I think I'm havin' shots and aspirin for a night snack.. sound good?" she suggested innocently, grinning again.

Michi nodded and continued walking toward University House feeling a little more bounce in her step than before. Of course there was the aching pain in her wrist and knuckles but she knew that was only temporary.

"I'd say we earned it," she smirked giving Hunter's butt a little smack. "Good game champ."

"We totally fuckin' earned it," she agreed, laughing as she was smacked, giving the younger girl a mock stern look. "Hey! Don't start that shit, 'cos I could out spank ya any night guaranteed," she challenged, eyebrows wiggling.

She felt better the closer they got to home, and she convinced herself not to look backward again. He'd probably be slinking back eventually, but for now, they had time to get upstairs and get fixed up. "If Mack comes over to look at that thing," she began, motioning to the other girl's wrist as a sudden thought came to her. "You can't-- y'know, tell her that I was all.. y'know. I was all tough, no mushy stuff, right? Our secret?" she suggested, looking at Michi with a little pout.

"Promise?!" she giggled as they neared the building. She knew better than to get started with that on a school night, the thought had her laughing even harder.

"Hey, you're always a tough broad but as long as I get to see that cuddly side," she grinned. "I'll take it to the grave."

"On my life!" she assured Michi, grinning. She had other things on her mind for once, such as getting the other girl's wrist fixed up and a pouring a couple of stiff drinks, but she was never opposed to a little teasing. Plus they did have all night.

"That's what I like to hear, babe.. jus' what I like to hear," Hunter agreed happily, stopping their walk as they reached just a couple of paces from the University house. Just outside the door, the blonde girl leaned in and kissed Michi again, letting their noses brush slightly as she pulled back. "Y'know I'm just a cuddlin' bug on the inside, goddamn.

Michi grinned into the kiss and felt her cheeks burning all over again. "I know you are," she said squeezing Hunter's hand with her good one. "You're wicked cute too," she said giving her a little cuddle bump. "But that's not really something I can keep secret," she grinned.

"It's hard work to be this cute but I guess I make it look real easy," Hunter shot back, grinning even wider. It felt so good to be smiling and laughing after everything, and she was still glad that it looked like they were off the hook with Pascual for a while. For tonight, she just wanted to focus on them. She'd focus on kicking his ass for good another time.

"Ready to go up and get some rest, gorgeous?" she asked, tucking some stray hair behind the other girl's ear.

"You make everything look easy," she grinned.

She got up on her tip toes and kissed Hunter just once more, she told herself it would be the last time before they got inside and fixed her wrist, it was really starting to hurt now that the adrenaline of the fight was wearing off. "I'm fuckin' exhausted," she yawned. "And my booboo," she tried not to pout but couldn't help it.

"Let's bounce and fix that booboo then, crybaby!" Hunter joked with her, nuzzling their noses together just one more time before taking the last few steps toward the door. Holding it open for the younger girl, she ushered Michi inside and took one last glance toward the direction they had come from.

To the blonde, everything felt like it was pretty much gravy.
