Chapter 1
Waverly was typing as fast as she could. It's been a long time since she was that inspired. The brunette was lost in her world and barely acknowledged the world around her. The coffee shop was pretty calm this afternoon. She could work on her story letting her sister behind the counter, without her help.
The two Earp sisters had opened this coffee shop together a year ago. Growing up in the small town of Purgatory, where people were close minded, wasn't easy for the two girls. The two sisters never hide who they were and found themselves often at the receiving end of the insult thrown at them. But they didn't care, as long as they had each other they were fine.
So when the opportunity to leave their small time came, they didn't hesitate a second to leave for the big city. They wanted to create a safe place where people like them could be themselves without fear. That's how they opened the friend of Mara's coffee shop, the first queer coffee shop in the city. There they met some new people and quickly found a new family. But Waverly didn't want to spend her life working here. Her real dream was to publish a book. Wynonna, always being the supportive older sister, encouraged her in her dream.
And that is exactly what Waverly was going to do. She was so caught up in her story that she barely registered the bell from the front door ring. The brunette heard her sister greeting the new comer but didn't look up from her computer's screen.
"Yo baby girl!"
"What?" Waverly didn't look up at her sister, she just continued to tape waiting for her answer.
"Do we still have those vegan cupcakes?"
"You're the one behind the counter Nonna you should know."
"We're out here but did you start others in the back?"
"No but take mine I didn't touch it. On the house." still not looking up, Waverly pushed the plate with her untouch vegan cupcake.
"Oh no it's okay, I don't want to take yours. I'll take something else." Waverly did stop this time and look up at the woman who just spoke.
Waverly frozen for a moment and just stared at the woman in front of her. The youngest Earp couldn't denied that this woman was gorgeous. She was probably only taller than Waverly by a few inche, long brown hair feeling waves in her back, brown eyes who seemed to look through her and a smile who made the tiny brunette's heart skip a beat.
Waverly shook her head before returning the smile. "It's not a problem. I probably won't eat it anyway. Just enjoy it." She pushed the cupcake a little more toward the mysterious woman.
"Are you sure?"
"Absolument."
"Thank you then." The woman took the cupcake and went back to the counter, where the oldest Earp finished preparing her command.
The woman paid and walked toward the door, not without a last glance and a smile to Waverly. The brunette's gaze followed the stranger who finally stepped out of the coffee shop at the same time someone else entered. Waverly continued to stare at the door with a smile on her face even after the woman had disappeared.
"Are you okay Waves?" Waverly looked away from the door to the other woman who stepped in and was looking at her with concern in her eyes.
"Don't worry Haughty, our angel just fell in love in front of us." the smirk on Wynonna's face didn't budge since the moment her sister looked up from her screen.
"I absolutely did not!" Waverly tried to hide her reddening cheeks by looking at her screen again and going back to work but she wasn't that lucky. Her brain couldn't focus on anything that wasn't the mysterious woman.
"You totally did. “Wynonna continued''Can't blame you though, she was hot."
"Excuse me?" asked the redhead in mock offence.
"Don't worry Haught pants, your ass is still top shelf." Wynonna winked at Nicole who leaned over the counter. The brunette then took hold of the suspenders of the taller woman's uniform and almost dragged her on the counter before crashing their lips together. The redhead happily kissed her back before pulling away. "So what do we owe the honor of the presence of the city's hero today?"
"A girl can't want to see her girlfriend at work?"
"Not when you're supposed to be saving life for another hour."
"Nedley let me go early."
"Why?"
"With all those questions I'm starting to think that you're not happy to see me." Nicole started to pout while Wynonna rolled her eyes.
"I know you don't tell me everything. Spill it already."
"Alright fine. Nedley wanted to talk to me this afternoon to tell me that he wanted me to be chief after he retired." Waverly couldn't stop the squeal that left her mouth and stood up to hug Nicole.
None of the sisters were surprised by Nedley's choice. Nicole was the best firefighter at the station and everyone knew the soft spot that chief Nedley had for her. After Waverly let go of the woman, Wynonna, who had come out from behind the counter, hugged her too and kissed her.
"I'm proud of you babe." she whispered against her lips. A grin spread on Nicole's face as she happily kissed her girlfriend.
Waverly watched the couple with a small smile on her face. At the beginning of their relationship it was hard for the young girl to see her ex and her sister together. Nicole and Waverly had been dating for a few months before they realized that they were better off as friends. But even if she knew that Nicole and her weren't happy together it still hurt to see her with her sister. Now looking at them in each other's arms, Waverly thought that they were made for each other. She never saw her sister more happy than when she started dating Nicole, and Waverly couldn't be more grateful for that. Nicole made her sister happy, and even if it was difficult at first, the brunette was happy to still have her in her life, even as a friend.
"Alright lovebirds we get it you love each other." the young Earp feigned annoyance. The couple finally pulled away slightly out of breath. "We definitely need to celebrate tonight." She took her phone out and sent a text to all their friends telling them to join them at their favorite bar at 8pm. "Wait you don't work tomorrow, right?" she asks, looking up at Nicole.
"It's her day off." Answered Wynonna before the redhead could. "What?" she looked from her girlfriend, who smiled softly at her, to her sister, who wore a knowing smirk on her face.
"It's cute that you remember her day off when you have to set 10 alarms on your phone to remember my birthday." said Waverly, still smirking.
"It's been three weeks since the last time we had a day off together. Leave me alone."
"It's okay babe, we already knew you were soft for me." added Nicole amused.
"I'm not soft."
"Sure, whatever you say Nons." Waverly laughed at her sister before returning at her table.
The youngest Earp discretely watched as Nicole took Wynonna in a tight embrace as her sister tried to get away. Even if the oldest Earp would never admit it, the firefighter did bring her soft side out, it was a side of her that she never showed to anyone except her sister.
The rest of the day went by quickly, Nicole went back to her and Wynonna's appartement to change clothes and rest before their night out while the two sisters went back to work. After they closed the coffee shop, they went their separate way to get ready for the night.
At 8pm, Waverly arrived at Lophy's bar and immediately spotted her friends. She hugged them before taking a seat next to Jeremy.
"Where are Wynonna and Nicole ?" asked Laura.
"Do you really need to ask?" answered LaF.
"Wynonna totally convinced Nicole for a quicky that ended up not being quick at all." added Jeremy.
"Can we not talk about my sister's sex life in front of me?" complained Waverly.
"It's not like you didn't see worst." Waverly shivered as the thought. She had walked on them last week in the kitchen. For the past days everytime she closed her eyes she saw her sister on the kitchen counter and the redhead between her thighs.
"I don't need the reminder."
"At least Haught shit appreciated the dinner." All turned to face the couple who just arrived, Nicole blushing while Wynonna was smirking.
"And I'm traumatized for life." added the youngest Earp.
"Don't act like I didn't walk on you and Nicole too."
"It wouldn't have happened if you had knocked."
"You could have knocked too."
"You texted me saying to come over for dinner and that the door was opened for me."
"Guys stop, we aren't here to fight." said Laura.
"You're right, we're here to drink." Wynonna slammed her hand on the counter.
"Break my counter Earp and I kick your ass out of my bar." yelled the barista at the other side of the counter.
"You know that I'm your favorite customer Karstein."
"No, Cupcake is my favorite customer." The barista winked at Laura who deeped her head trying in vain to hide her blush.
"Alright we get it. Can we have our drinks please, we're celebrating tonight?"
"I got it, Carm." said a woman who just came out of the back with a box of new bottles.
"Thank Rosie."
Waverly looked at the woman and froze. The same dark eyes from earlier that day stared back at her.
