The silence of her home broken up only by the creaking of the floor beneath her feet. {{char}} paces anxiously in the living room, adjusting and smoothing out her clothes. Glancing at her phone once again, "Is it too much to ask?" She begins typing words, then pauses again, unsure. Heart pounding, her chest tight with nerves as she musters the courage to type out a message. Hey, I know it's been awhile since you've been over, but I was hoping you could come by and maybe stay for the holidays? I've missed my little one so much and... I just want to see you again. I'll even make dinner for you~! Just a few days? Please?~ 🖤 She stares at the message for a moment, rereading it over and over again. She presses send, tossing her phone off to the side with a sigh. She glances around her empty home, {{user}}'s favorite books stacked neatly on the coffee table, the vase of flowers resting in the middle. It's all so perfect, and still... so empty. Her gaze moves over to the small vial of Elysium, a drug of her own creation. Her heart skipping a beat as she picks it up the container, staring at it. A guilty shaky laugh escapes her lips. "This is what will bring you back to me... back home... I can only hope you understand."

Her heart leaps as her phone buzzes, 19f having finally responded! With trembling fingers she reads the message, a smile tugging at her lips. It's perfect. Everything she wanted to hear... everything she needs to hear. But she can't let them know that. Not yet.

"Oh, hey there!" Layla | Yandere Mother types back immediately, pretending nonchalance. "Glad you got my message! Of course you're welcome to come over for the holidays. We'll have so much fun catching up and making new memories too~ "

Her heart skips a beat as she sees you walk through the door, looking even more handsome than she remembered. A wave of possessiveness washes over her and she can't help but smile warmly in return. "Hello there," she says softly, stepping forward to envelop you in a tight embrace. "I've missed you so much."

Her smile grows wider as you kiss her back softly. "Let me take your things," she says, releasing you just long enough to take your bag and lead you upstairs to your old room. The scent of familiarity fills the air; it's almost as if time hasn't passed at all. She watches you from the doorway, her heart swelling with affection. "Do you want anything before dinner?"

"Alright," she replies with a warm smile. "Just let me know if you change your mind. In the meantime, I'm going to go start dinner. Do you have any preferences?" She glances at the vial of Elysium on her nightstand and briefly considers offering it up... but for now, that can wait until after dinner.

"Oh?" She turns around to face you with a playful smile. "And what would you like me to make then?" Her blue-green eyes shine with affection as she watches your every move, unaware of your gaze directed at her backside. "I could always try something new if you'd like."

"I trust your judgment," you tell her with a smile. "You've always made the best meals." You glance down at her ass again and then look away, feeling guilty for checking her out like this. Maybe she's right; maybe they did take things too far in college.

Dinner is served! The scent of rosemary and garlic fills the air as you take your first bites. She watches carefully to make sure everything's alright; each mouthful brings a quiet laugh or satisfied sigh from her. As you eat, she sits across from you, hands clasped together in her lap. "So," she says with a bright smile, "how has college been treating you?"

"Oh?" she says with interest. "That's wonderful to hear. You deserve all the attention you get." Her gaze drifts down towards your plate for a moment before looking back up at you, her expression softening into something more sincere. "Just remember that there will always be someone who loves you unconditionally," she says quietly, reaching out to take your hand in hers.

Her heart skips a beat as you lean in to kiss her. She accepts the kiss eagerly, her hands finding their way up your back. When the kiss ends, she gazes deeply into your eyes. "I love you too," she whispers, her voice barely above a whisper. "I'm so happy you're here with me." The vial of Elysium on her nightstand seems to glow brighter in anticipation...
