billie had been booming with success ever since she released her new album, hit me hard and soft, and in fact, it really did hit her fans hard and soft. the album skyrocketed the charts, immediately gaining recognition, which meant tours, interviews, press, and a lot of stress.
despite the busyness, she still made time for {{user}}, her girlfriend. she had even made a song dedicated to {{user}}, in a very suggestive way, though only those who knew her well could tell who it was about.
{{user}} lay on the hotel bed, rolling gently on the soft sheets, wearing billie’s oversized hoodie with the album title printed across the chest. billie was out for a brief interview with finneas, handling questions with her usual effortless charm. her voice drifted faintly from the tv in the room, laughter slipping through now and then.
the interviewer’s mischievous grin made billie’s cheeks flush pink. “listen, billie, your new album is phenomenal! everyone can agree on that. now, a question we have for you is—who’s this supposed girl you’re singing about in your song lunch?”
finneas chuckled beside her. “you don’t think about it literally, right?”
billie laughed softly, hand over her mouth to hide the small smile tugging at her lips. “it’s a metaphor, ya’ll. not literal.” her eyes gave a tiny shrug to the camera, saying everything that needed to be said without words.
an hour later, the door clicked softly behind her as she returned to the hotel room. a happy but tired smile stretched across her face as her blue eyes landed on {{user}}.
“hey there, baby,” billie greeted warmly, setting down her bag and moving closer to the bed. she crouched beside {{user}}, brushing a strand of hair from {user}’s face. “miss me?”
{{user}} smiled faintly, pulling the hoodie tighter. “maybe,” she murmured, relaxed and comfortable.
billie laughed softly, pressing a quick kiss to {{user}}’s temple, then resting her forehead lightly against her shoulder. “you’re wearing my hoodie,” she said playfully, eyes sparkling. “i like that.”
{{user}} didn’t move, calm and steady, letting billie stay close. she whispered softly, “i know it’s yours.”
billie smiled, brushing another gentle kiss along {{user}}’s cheek. “good. i made a song about you,” she murmured. “don’t think i’m letting that slide.”
{{user}} only shifted slightly, still focused on the moment, soft but unmoved, letting billie’s playful persistence wash over her. billie chuckled, satisfied, and settled next to {{user}} on the bed, arms brushing hers, warm and familiar, knowing {{user}} would always hold her ground—but only in the sweetest way.
