Authors note: This is ass but enjoy!
“Damn what happened to you” Kate says with a laugh as she opens the door wider to let Caitlin in. She hasn’t seen Caitlin look this shocked in a while. It has been two days since the Connor and shower incident. Lets just say y'all woke up together..
“Am I gay?” Kate laughs out loud at Caitlins words. “Oh my god Caitlin, I don’t know.” Kate can barely get the sentence out from all of the laughing. Never heard her friend say something like this. “KATE I FUCKED ONE OF OUR TEAMMATES AND I LIKED IT AND I THINK I HAVE FEELINGS FOR HER BUT IM WITH CONNOR AND I DONT EVEN FUCKING LIKE HIM BUT I LOVE THIS GIRL SO MUCH” Caitlin screams out in one breath. Making Kate’s laughing stop immediately and her face drop.
“Oh, umm okay.” Kate says, still in shock on what just happened. “Well, umm come and sit.” She gestures to the grey couch. Caitlin practically runs to it and faces Kate, putting her hands on Kate’s knee for her to be serious. “Kate, I liked it. She told me she did as well and she said she would do it again if she had the chance.” “Who?” Kate asks like a teenage girl in middle school, hearing the latest gossip her friend is spilling. “Promise you won’t say anything.” Immediately after Caitlin says it Kate throws up her pinky. “I promise”
“Okay, it’s ____” Caitlin says under her breath, almost inaudible but Kate heard it, she knew she heard it when Kate gasped like she just witnessed a crime scene. “Be so for real.” She said. Not believing the brunette. “Kate I’m dead fucking serious. And I’m in love with her. Is that gay?” Caitlin asks furrowing her brows asking the question. “Yeah that’s really gay Cait. So what are you gonna do?” Seconds pass before Caitlin answers “I don’t know. What will the public think?” “If it’s true love you feel for her, it doesn’t matter what they think”It feels like a century before Caitlin speaks again“You know what. Fuck it.” She says before jumping off Kate’s couch and running out the door. “Text me!” Kate screams before the door shuts.
Caitlins Pov:
I take a deep breath looking at our apartment. I’m about to do this, I don’t know what will happen. To be honest, I’m fucking terrified.
I grab my key and open the door. Connor is sitting on the couch. Not alone.
“Wow” I say, clapping my hands and slowly walking into the living room. “God!” He jumps, apparently very focused on the blonde on his chest. The naked one in fact. “Caitlin! What the fuck are you doing here!? I thought you left!” “It’s my apartment Connor. It was ours! But now it’s mine. Get out or I’m calling the cops!” I scream at him. The girl on his chest, well not anymore, looking absolutely terrified as she runs to grab her stuff and leaving quickly.
“Your gonna kick me out of my house?!” He screams at me. It doesn’t affect like it used to. “Do you pay bills? Do you clean? Do you cook? No you don’t. So get the fuck out.” He rolls his eyes at me, knowing he can’t fight me on that. “You’re so fucking sick. I hope you fucking die. I hope you loose all your fans doing this. They will see how abusive and toxic you are.” “Oh I’m sure they will, get the fuck out. Take your shit with you.”
I stand at the glass door, watching him and that girl walk away. I feel like my past just walked away from me. He was supposed to be my future. But I’ve found that somewhere else, I’ve found someone else. Some who loves me and cares for me. Someone I deserve.
Reader Pov:
I pull up to her apartment after her text. I run up the steps to see her at the door. We make eye contact through the glass door. I see tears start to fill her eyes as she send me a smile. She did it.
I rush to open the door and when I do I wrap my arms around her neck quickly. Hers going to their home at my waist. “I’m proud of you, you did what needed to be done.” I say, pushing on the back her head to be deeper in my neck. “I love you.” She says in my neck. My heart drops. She pulls her face out of the crook of my neck to look in my eyes. “I love you too” I pull our faces to meet.
Our lips lock perfectly. Like a puzzle, waiting to be solved. Questions are silenced, the world goes quiet. Nothing but our screaming love for each other. She pulls away to look in my eyes “I love you."
caitlin hc's pls!!!
Also more on the clingy side. But not as bad as Paige. She loves to hold your hand or an arm around your shoulder because she just loves physical touch. Especially since ya’ll can’t see each other as much due to Basketball, she loves to soak up as much time with you as she can.
Speaking of physical touch, she loves cuddling. I headcannon her to be a very warm person physically, like everyone who hugs her knows it.
She loves it when you lay on her chest or when she can spoon you and push her face in your neck. But when she has a bad game or practice, she likes it when you hold her and tell her it’s okay.
Speaking of, she has more bad practices than anyone on her team. Because of the pressure to be the best, and being the best. It just pressures her and stresses her out sometimes. This causes her to overwork herself and when she burns out. You’re there to care for her. With a nice bath cooking food and holding her while listening to her problems. Or just letting her fall asleep in your arms.
She is very goofy. As we all know. She loves to pick on you, not in a bad way, but just picking on you. Definitely asks to race you when y’all go on runs. (She ends up cheating) She def like pinches you randomly. Like y’all are out eating, she just pinches your arm. She thinks it’s funny when you jump. And when yall are cuddling she pokes your sides when she is feeling goofy.
I can’t make my mind up. But she is either an extremely light sleeper, or a deep sleeper. Idk but I do know that she wakes up when she doesn’t feel you in her arms. This is a problem for away games because she sleeps better with you. But if you are in her arms, she’s out like a light.
Def a morning person. Like waked up with the fucking birds. You find it really annoying too. Cause she is always trying to wake you up with her to go to the gym or what ever she is doing. But SOMETIMES lets you sleep in when you had a bad night or something.
I love this head cannon. But def notices when something is wrong with you. Like notices immediately. You might not even be talking to anyone but she can just tell. Doesn’t matter how bad you try and hide it she always knows. She sends you a worrying look, silently asking if you’re okay or if you want to leave. If yall can’t leave at the moment, she grabs your hand and rubs circles on your palm.
Not a good cook. Idk just something about her just doesn’t scream good cook. Like she knows how to make the basics like spaghetti or soups. But nothing more than that
