Kenzi was up bright and early, going through her usual morning regiment of a light workout and a morning FACETIME chat with her Spiritual Advisor, Terri Monroe. It had been a trying week for Team Kickass, but Kenzi had faith that they would make it through and come out the other side even stronger. As she finished, she posted a few devotionals on her social media account and even took the time to wish Ally Gregory well on the occasion of her Baby Shower
As soon as she told Ally that she would go, she felt a bit of trepidation. She never went anywhere without Sarah and she knew her wife’s feelings about the Gregory’s and Tyson in particular. For all the nastiness that had transpired last week over Roxy Cotton’s comment about Ally’s twins, this only served as a reminder of Tyson’s comments towards Sarah after he had told her that her father was burning in Hell the day after his funeral. No public outrage over that…no demands for apologies…no interrogations over whether he really wanted Jean Paul to burn in Hell. Just another day on social media.
That bit of nastiness aside, Kenzi’s new outlook on life meant that regardless of her personal feelings toward everyone who had done their best to turn her into something she wasn’t, she wasn’t about to be forced into a shell like a frightened turtle. Of course...there was still the matter of Sarah flipping out once she found out that Kenzi had accepted the invite.
It almost seemed like the coward’s way out, but Kenzi texted Melissa Reeves regarding the fact that she had failed to RSVP. This might have been the out that she needed. Mel had been none too happy with Kenzi’s stance last week and had all but told her to stop talking to her…which she did…that was Mel’s choice, not hers. Now, a part of her hoped that Mel didn’t answer or told her to screw off, at least then she wouldn’t have to ask Sarah to go with her to the last place she wanted to be on the planet that day.
To Kenzi’s surprise, Mel answered promptly, and while their exchange was brief and wooden, there was no problem in her showing up…though an RSVP 'would have been nice…'
“…crap…”
Kenzi made her way to the sitting room and steeled herself as she approached her wife, taking a deep breath and smiling as broadly as she could to set things at ease. Her voice took on a ‘matter of fact’ tone, “I have an invitation to go to Ally’s baby shower at 11:00 in Vegas today. Wanna go?”
Sarah’s reply was immediate, “No.”
“Understood.” Her reply was so quick that it dumbfounded her and she turned and walked out of the room without even arguing the point.
Kenzi cursed herself for a fool to have even tried, but this seemed the right thing to do. Others held on to grievances over differences of opinion…others ignored family and friends because they were told to do so, that wasn’t Kenzi’s way…and as for Sarah, well…The Red Queen had regularly spat in the faces of her detractors. The Sarah of old would have shown up for shits and giggles, invitation or no.
Kenzi tweeted at Sarah, and did what she could to explain why it was important for them to attend. Predictably, Sarah fired back and made it clear that she was nowhere near ready to make that leap. Kenzi kept on messaging Sarah, in the hopes that she would give in and come with her…if not to be the pain in the ass that she always was, then to be her Selena…her un-lawfully wedded wife.
Sarah’s response was a low blow against her and it hurt her deeply…but not as much as the idea of the two of them being apart for even a few hours. She did her best not to let on that Sarah’s wish for her to ‘not come back with any new spouses’ didn’t gut her, but hot tears did roll down her ebony cheeks. It was a dagger that Kenzi had handed her to use, and the cut was wicked and cruel…but Kenzi was determined as she continued to hope against hope that Sarah would change her mind.
An hour passed and boarding began as Kenzi could only feel sorry that her efforts had failed. She kicked at her bag as she stared at the gate, not at all looking forward to facing the many eyes of their detractors without her rock beside her. This day was truly going to suck.
Sarah powers through security, pushing people out of the way without a care for cries of anger or pain until she stands before the seated Kenzi, placing her hands on her hips. "You are an INSUFFERABLE shit, you know that?!"
Kenzi ignores everything and everyone around her as she throws her arms around her Selena and hugs her tighter than she ever has before. She kisses her and whispers into her ear, “…I know that I am, but I am yours, and that is all that matters…” She kisses her again, taking the full measure of her lover’s mouth. She leaves no doubt who she belongs to.
Sarah hugs her fiercely. "I sweater gawd that if there is even ONE comment, someone is getting set in fire." Sarah reaches down and brazenly cups Kenzi's ass in front of everyone and squeezes hard. "And I had DAMN WELL BETTER be getting laid at this stupid thing!"
"I promise, you may die from dehydration!"
All jokes and kidding aside, Kenzi could not hide her joy at the fact that her EVERYTHING had seen her way through to join her. That is how much they meant to each other. No ridiculous twitter spats and no hypocritical stands by the people around them was going to turn them into sheep, or even worse, against one another. They were the strong ones who were stronger together, and they followed one another into the dark…
