So Many Forests
[K is for kaleidoscope, Skins RPF, Lily/Kat, for jengrrrl]
“Taken it to heart, then?” Kathryn hears from behind her, the voice immediately familiar. She’s heard it via mobile, on her computer screen, and mostly in her dreams. Most embarrassingly, more like.
“What?” She should be much more clever. But after months apart-only seeing each other at stupid media events, and then having to focus on the crowd and the photogogs, and everything else… Kat finds that she’s not capable of much more than staring with her mouth dropped a bit. Christ.
Lily gestures, smirking. “The whole… ‘not into labels’ thing.”
“Uh.” Kat feels nervous for what is possibly the fourth time in her life.
“That flannel is extremely becoming on you, Prescott. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.” Lily takes a chug of water and adjusts her dress, hiding a smile Kat knows is lurking. Such a cunt, Loveless. Brilliant fucking cunt.
She scrambles for her script and cracks it across Lily’s shoulder. “Not a lezzah, yeah?”
“Right, Kat. Perhaps next time you could try looking in the rainbow aisle.”
“Got this at H&M, I’ll have you know. On the non-gay rack.” Kat flashes her tongue ring. Cheeky.
Lily just laughs. “Too bad your birthday’s past. I’d of bought you a flag.”
