Being sober was still weird for Ellery. She’d taken up to jogging and spending hours at the gym instead, needing to keep her body busy and mind away from alcohol. Some days were easier than others. That day was a harder day - and the only solution to that was Finley. Smiling adoringly at her, Ellery pecked her lips. “I’m alright, yeah. Not interrupting your mojo, am I?”

Finley stood in the art studio that she had, chewing on her bottom lip as she moved about creating another piece of art. She knew that she wasn’t the most talented person in the world, but she appreciated the ability that she had and she was looking forward to the chance to make art for the rest of her life. Hearing the door open, Fin looked up from what she was doing and shot a grin in Ellery’s direction when she saw her standing there. “Oh, hey there, beautiful.” The blonde stated, wiping her hands off before moving over to slip her arms around the darker-haired girl’s waist. “How are you doing?”

Anna Kendrick – “Pitch Perfect 3″ trailer #1

I fucking love Irish slang like it’s the most creative craft ever.

Today I heard a coffin being referred to as a “wooden onesie” in the sentence “Ah jayysus, me nanny looks better than ye and she’s in a bleedin wooden onesie” and it was honestly life changing

“Let’s just find a place on the road? If you’re good with that? I can look up some opinions of different places?” She offered, waving her phone a little bit.

“Sounds grand, mate.” Ellery flashed the blonde a winning smile, helping Finley into the truck before hopping in herself. “Nothing too expensive. Most of our money has to be towards gas now for the way back.”

I'm not an alcoholic, I'm Irish.

Finley giggled but blushed slightly at Ellery’s words, rubbing the back of her neck. “She’s pretty hot all the time but…yeah. I agree.” The blonde grinned at Ellery’s words and then nodded her head. “Alright. Let’s get outta here then, babe.”

After doing a quick scan of the room to make sure all their belongings were packed up, Ellery lead the way back out to her truck. “Anything in particular in the mood for? I’m kinda feeling like... every single breakfast food imagineable. Plus a fuck ton of bacon.”

We didn’t think you’d be coming. You RSVP’d ‘no’, and then ‘yes’ on an RSVP card that you barbecued.

Stage by stage I tear apart If brokenness is a form of art I must be a poster child prodigy…

She laughed softly and tapped her fingers lightly against the girl’s back. “I’m glad you’d be all for it! And it would be pretty awesome to bring Scout next time too. I think she’d enjoy it.” Finley nodded with a smile and then stepped back from Ellery to stretch her arms above her head. “Ready to check out and go find some food? My belly might start eating itself soon.”

“She seems like she would be. Plus, I bet she’d look super hot with the wind in her hair. Ellie waggled her eyebrows playful in Finley’s direction. “Yeah, definitely. Y’know I always want food.”

She smirked against Ellery’s neck and pressed a gentle kiss to the skin there. “At least I’ve got something that keeps you interested.” She teased, letting her fingers dance along her sides. “I’ve had a lot of fun. And hey…if I had wanted to go home earlier, I would’ve told you. I promise.” Finley pulled back a bit to allow their eyes to connect and she smiled. “Spending this time with you has been amazing. I’m really glad we did this. And I’d like to do it again sometime too.”

“That’s a huge compliment. Not a single thing keeps me entertained for long,” Ellery chuckled. She finally relaxed more at Finley’s reassurance. She wanted Finley to be happy. Most terrifying to her, Ellery wanted to help Finley be happy. “Yeah? I’d be all sorts of in for that, obviously. We could probably even manage to bring Scout along.”

“I do say so. You’re pretty freaking cute, El.” Seeing the frown on Ellery’s face, she reached up to trail her thumb against her skin, smoothing out the lines that had been created. “Of course she is! She’s the biggest animal lover I’ve ever met. I couldn’t imagine her not taking good care of any animal. Plus they are her pets…I’m just lucky enough to live in the same apartment as them.” She said with a smile. “I’m sure it’s not complete shit, El. But whatever you say. I will be patient and wait for a design you think is good enough.” She stood up from the chair and slipped her arms around Ellie’s waist and pressed a kiss to her lips. “We can crash in Portland for the night. I’m not quite ready to let go of you just yet.” The blonde mused, nuzzling her head into Ellery’s neck and squeezing her arms around the girl’s waist a bit more tightly. 

Ellery coolly watched the way Finley’s face lit up at the mention of Scout. Did she look like that when talk of Ellery came up? Shaking her head, Ellery remarked, “You’re just lucky you’re cute cute.” She tilted her head to kiss the top of Finley’s head. Relax, she ordered herself. Normal people do this all the time. Chill with your issues. “You’ve had fun, though? I didn’t mean to keep you from home this long.”

“Things are infinitely more entertaining when you’re around. But snuggling up with you when your sleeping is pretty great too. So it was kind of a win-win no matter what.”

She hummed contently as lips pressed against her own, nudging her nose against Ellery’s before she pulled away. “I’m just drawing Pluto and Odie. I kinda miss them.” She said with a sheepish laugh. “No worries at all. I have plenty of sketchbooks at home ready to be filled. A few pages won’t kill me. Can I see some of those plans sometime?”

A surprised laugh slid past Ellery’s lips at the words. She had heard herself be called a lot of things, ranging from mysterious to sexy, but she certainly had never heard anyone compliment snuggling up to her. It just showed how different Finley was from the crowds Ellery normally drifted towards. “If ‘ya say so, mate.”

Ellery frowned. “Right... kinda didn’t think about them. I’m not used to having pets to worry about. I’m sure Scout is taking real good care of ‘em, though! They probably miss you just as much, blondie.” Ellery had already begun doing the mental calculations of how long it would take to be back in Los Angeles. Portland was four hours away, give or take traffic. She figured they could crash there for a night. The drive back to LA would be much longer --- over a day if they drove straight through. This wouldn’t have phased Ellie, but she had Finley to worry about. Ellie never had a home or a routine or people that cared, but Finley had all of those things. Finley’s life needed her. “Sure, some time, when I come up with something that isn’t complete shit. Do you wanna crash in Portland for a night or drive through? LA’s gonna take us about two days.���

A little while after she’d woken up, Finley had made her way into the bathroom yet again. She’d brushed her teeth and actually had a shower before changing into a pair of clothes for the day. Once she was ready to go, she packed up all of the things that she threw in the back of Ellery’s truck before claiming a seat next to the bed and once again picking up her sketchbook.

She smiled as she heard Ellery’s voice, glancing over at her from the spot where she was seated. “Hey, gorgeous. Sleep well?” She questioned, before shaking her head slightly at the girl’s words. “I’ve just been sketching. That could keep me busy for hours. It’s really no big deal. Looked like you needed the sleep anyway.” She mused, before setting her sketchbook aside. “I am pretty ready to get some food though.”

“Ah, yeah, I either sleep too much or not at all. All my traveling, my sleeping habits are all messed up.” Ellie crinkled her nose and swung her legs off of the bed. She headed to the bathroom to brush her teeth and pee before going back out to meet Finley. “Glad you weren’t completely bored, mate. Now you can be even more entertained that I’m here.”

Leaning in, she pressed a quick kiss to Finley’s lip. “So, whatcha drawin’? I kind of stole some of your pages last night. My architecture plans aren’t nearly as cool as your drawings, though.”
