Ë â âą sailor song - b. eilish
wc ; 700+
los angeles is humming beneath youâfaint neon pulses and faraway sirens weaving through the night like a second heartbeat. from billieâs home, the city looks like a blur. soft, distant.
you sit curled in the corner of her leather couch, wearing nothing but damp cutoff shorts and her oversized hoodie. your hairâs still wet from earlier, saltwater dried into the strands. billieâs walking slow circles around the room, barefoot and restless, tension radiating from her like static electricity.
âyou donât talk to me,â she says suddenly, voice quiet but sharp. ânot really. not when it counts.â
you shift but donât meet her eyes.
âim here, arenât i?â
âyouâre physically here. emotionally? i canât tell if youâre already halfway gone.â
that one lands. you feel it behind your ribs.
âiâm not trying to leave,â you say. âi just⌠feel like Iâm sinking sometimes. and i donât want to pull you under.â
she stops pacing.
âyou think i wouldnât follow you?â
her voice cracks right at the end, and thatâs what does itâyour heart pulling, aching toward hers like gravity.
you rise, crossing the space between you until youâre inches apart. the room is hushed around you, save for the low hum of billieâs breathing, uneven and heavy with things unsaid.
âi donât want to lose you,â you whisper.
billie exhales like it hurts.
âyou donât have to lose me. but youâve got to stop shutting me out.â
and thenâlike a wave breakingâyou reach for each other. her hands find your waist. yours cup her face. the kiss is instant, inevitable, desperate. months of unsaid things crash between your mouths, and the taste of the ocean is still on her lips.
you stumble together toward the couch, the hoodie slipping off your shoulder. billieâs fingers are already beneath the hem, skimming your skin, drawing soft gasps from your mouth. her lips trail along your jaw, your neck, your collarbone, her voice barely audible.
âi missed you,â she murmurs. âeven when you were right next to me.â
you pull her closer, tugging her shirt up, off, baring her to the dim city light spilling through the window. your skin meets hersâwarm, soft, electricâand you both exhale, forehead to forehead, like youâre coming up for air at the same time.
âtell me what you want,â she whispers.
âi want this not to fall apart,â you say honestly, voice shaking. âi want to believe weâre okay.â
she nods, her thumbs brushing your ribs.
âthen let me show you.â
you let her.
you fall back onto the couch and she follows, straddling you, her body a perfect fit against yours. she kisses you like sheâs terrified itâs the last timeâfingers in your hair, lips soft but urgent. you gasp as her mouth finds the hollow beneath your ear, your legs wrapping around her instinctively.
clothes come off in pieces, soft sighs and moans layered between kisses that grow deeper, needier. the city fades. the past fades. thereâs only this: her hands, her voice, her name in your mouth like a lifeline.
âyouâre still here,â billie says against your skin, as if reminding herself. âyouâre still mine.â
âi always was.â
the moment breaks openâslow and aching, like a song caught between verses. her lips find their way down your body, reverent, lingering. she worships you like sheâs afraid of losing the map of you. you arch into her, a breathless cry on your lips, your body already trembling beneath her.
âyouâre everything,â she breathes, eyes locked with yours. âyou hear me? everything.â
and you do.
you let go in her arms, falling hard, falling free, every part of you unraveling into the safety of her touch. she follows, shuddering against your skin, burying her face in the curve of your neck.
for a long time, thereâs only breath and heartbeat. only warmth.
when you finally speak, itâs a whisper in the dark.
âi think iâm scared of how much i love you.â
billie pulls back, her eyes shining even in the low light. she presses her forehead to yours again, like she did when you first walked through her door tonight.
âiâm not,â she says.
and somehow, thatâs enough.
you fall asleep with her arms around you, the city still glowing outside, the ocean singing somewhere far offâbut no longer calling you away. tonight, you stay.
