Your Sisters

You wake up with something, or someone, on top of you. You look down to see what it is.

Blackfire is on top of you, her mouth open a little as she breathes in and out. She looks so cute like that.

On top of her, you see your sister, Flashfire. She also looks cute while she's sleeping, but now is not the time or the place.

"Flashfire," you whisper. "Flashfire, what're you doing?!"

Flashfire slowly wakes up, mumbling. She looks up to see you and Blackfire, and her eyes widen.

"How did I...?"

"That's what I want to know," you say. "Weren't you with Starfire?"

"Oh, I got up in the middle of the night to get something to drink, and I must've entered the wrong room when I returned..."

"A midnight drink? What're you, a toddler?"

"Sorry," she says, getting up slowly. "I'll go eat breakfast." She slowly and quietly walks out of the room, turning left.

A moment later, Starfire pops her head in.

"Is she still sleeping?" Starfire asks, whispering.

You nod yes.

"Oh... I was hoping to talk to her about something."

"I could wake her up for you," you say.

"Oh, no, Saffire," Starfire says, "that is quite alright, I--"

"Blackfire, wake up," you say, nudging her shoulder.

"Why...?" Blackfire yawns, rubbing her eyes. She sees her sister in by the door. "Oh, Starfire, good morning."

"Your sister wanted to talke to you about something," you say.

"Oh," Blackfire says, getting out of bed and stretching. "What about?"

"Oh, i-it's nothing!" Starfire says as she withdraws her head.

"Starfire," Blackfire says, hurrying after her sister. "If you want to talk, we can talk."

"Well, I, um..." Starfire blushes, unable to look up. "It's just that I..."

"Why are you so nervous?" Blackfire asks. "Just tell me what it is that you wanted to say."

Starfire looks around, then approaches her sister, putting her mouth to Blackfire's ear. She whispers something that makes Blackfire blush and giggle.

"You really want to do that?" Blackfire asks, still giggling.

Starfire nods meekly.

"And Robin?"

"He isn't to know," Starfire insists. "Tradition or not, he wouldn't understand or allow it."

"Well, alright," Blackfire says. She walks over to you, and takes you by the hand. Blackfire follows Starfire down the hall. They stop at a room and open the door. It is a bathroom!

Starfire enters, and turns on the shower.
