Sara groaned as she started to wake up. She could feel her head pounding and didn't want to start her day just yet. She kept her eyes shut tight. "Someone's finally waking up," a voice came from beside her. Surprised at the sudden voice, the former assassin almost jumps out of bed, only to get tangled in the sheet and end up falling on her ass beside it. Ava, who was still sitting on the bed, started laughing loudly.
"You scared me, jerk," Sara said sleepily.
Ava chuckled as she commented: "I didn't know a Superhero could be so clumsy."
Sara rolled her eyes, her cheeks coloring slightly red. "Good thing I'm a Legend and not a Superhero then, huh."
This made Ava laugh, even more, making a small smile appear on the Captain's face. "Now you're just insulting yourself as well as your team."
"What are you doing here anyway?" Sara asked, a slightly annoyed tone in her voice. Her memories of the previous night being very blurry.
The Time Bureau Agent faked a shocked look. "Does the drunk Captain not remember her evening activities." The statement was followed by a mock offended look.
The Captain's cheeks became redder and redder by the second. A frown made it's way onto Sara's face as she tried to remember what could have happened the night before. The more she was trying to think, the harder her head was pounding, making her brain foggy. She groaned in frustration.
Ava's mock offended look made Sara blush even harder. "If you just wanted to get me into your bed, you didn't have to give me a fake confession of love, you know."
Sara's eyes widened. "No!" She exclaimed too quickly. "I- you- it's not like that, Ava!" The hungover blonde stumbled over her words. "Please, believe me, I would never do something like that. I- I-"
Ava cut her off, by standing up and pulling the shorter woman into a hug. "Relax, babe," she finally lost the teasing tone in her voice. "I was just messing with you. I know that as drunk as you were, you meant every word." She kissed the other woman's forehead. "I love you too," she whispered in her ear. Ava pulled away from the hug, getting back into bed and opening her arms, inviting Sara to cuddle with her. Without hesitation, Sara rushed back into her arms. "How are you feeling?" Ava asked her softly.
"My head hurts and my brain is foggy, but as long as I'm here like this with you, I couldn't be better." Sara smiled widely.
"Why don't you close your eyes and get some more rest, you'll feel better after. I'll still be here when you wake up again, I promise." The teasing tone made another appearance as she added, "just try not to fall out of bed this time."
Both chuckled, Sara's cheeks still very red. "Jerk," she mumbled, before falling asleep. Her dreams for once not filled with her usual nightmares. She'd take Ava's teasing every day if it meant at the end of it she could fall asleep in her arms.
