Berkeley by Sophia Jirafe skepticgirl@yahoo.com Rating: R Classification: 155 words on Scully and Love Spoilers: none Summary: Some loves only happen once. Sometimes that's a good thing. ----- When Gabrielle missed chemistry because she was hungover, Dana let her copy her notes. When Gabrielle borrowed underwear because she hadn't done laundry in weeks, Dana gave it to her. When Gabrielle laughed as she told her about sleeping with Stoner Tom from across the hall, Dana tried to laugh too. When Gabrielle spoke in her sleep, Dana listened. When Gabrielle hobbled in on one cork wedgie at four am, Dana caught her as she fell. She never wore a bra and Dana tried to look away from the soft, pale flesh that swelled under her gold halter. When Gabrielle kissed her, Dana kissed back. When Gabrielle crawled into bed with her at night, Dana kissed those breasts and pink nipples again and again, sliding her hands greedily into warm places, and stopping moans with full lips and slick tongue. When Gabrielle said she was moving in with her boyfriend, Dana pretended she hadn't heard. ----- Note: If you've read "Ground Zero", the title should make sense.
