Astoria’s eyes open and close slowly as she fights sleep. She wants to stay awake for as long as possible so she can savor this moment.

Triumph is sweet, but snuggling against the warm body next to her is even sweeter. After the months of teasing she has endured, she doesn’t want to forget a second of their first night together.

Eyelids fluttering again, Astoria stares at Narcissa, memorizing the way her blonde hair is mussed—for once—and how her cheeks are still flushed a warm pink. Astoria is sure her own appearance is similar, and her heart flips at the thought. She has never felt so connected to anyone in her life, and it is a heady feeling.

Narcissa likes me, like I like her.

*smirk

it's more than being alive. It's spirit and striving and wonder and Bonding. Yes, Astoria, I'd give anything to be in your place.

That it is.

Aww, super sweet. It's nice waking up next to someone, I agree!

Thanks :) And yeah, it is.

Lovely! I'd be interested to know how this moment came about, and what happens afterwards.

Thanks! I've written a few now with this pairing, but don't know the immediate before or after. Yet. ;)
