can't stop the feeling
i got that sunshine in my pocket
The moment Natalie moved away, Lena realised that whatever she wanted to start with Natalie was over. She let the brunette speak and when she posed the question, Lena couldn't help but feel a sting.
"Natalie," she called to her friend, her tone clearly indicating how hurt she was by the accusation. "If that was all I wanted, I would have left before you woke up."
This was definitely going the way she had expected but it didn't hurt any less. She stood up to approach Natalie.

With herself now completely clothed, she glanced over to the woman. Her lips pressed together before she went for a well worn in sweatshirt, drawing it up over her head. The movement kept her busy, because unlike in most situations, she couldn't hide behind a closed door. This was her home. Her hands lifted upwards, drawing out long brown locks from under the thick hood and letting them free.
"You were already out of my bed," Natalie pointed out, feeling the strain of her own tone. Had she not awoken so quickly, would the dancer have been gone? She sucked in a breath, pulling on her socks, next.
"Look, Lena." Already, this was harder than she anticipated. "I wasn't expecting to dive into a relationship with you after what happened. I know how you are with those things." She had, after all, known the girl for three years. "But this?" She gestured to the space between them. How tense it felt. "It's not exactly what I was expecting, either."

Natalie's observation would have made Lena laugh had the situation not being wrought with tension. She had gotten out of bed because she didn't want to be around Natalie with morning breath.
Now, it would just sound like a shallow excuse so she kept quiet.
"Natalie, I don't want you to think that what we did last night was a drunken mistake because while yes admittedly, we were drunk, it wasn't a mistake. I have wanted to do this since I met you. How I am about whatever arrangement I happen to have with other people shouldn't cheapen that."
Lena wanted to close the gap between them when Leo slinked around Lena's ankle, stopping her from moving. She pursed her lips and bent down to pick the kitten up. She looked back at Natalie, suddenly scared that this was the end of the conversation.
"I'm sorry, Natalie. I don't know how to remedy this situation. I just hope you don't think that I took advantage of you last night."

Natalie quickly felt overwhelmed in a place that was supposed to bring her the most comfort. Her distress was honest, and she hadn't a way to really see where the woman in front of her landed, and perhaps she was a little blinded by her own feelings brought on so early in the morning. A glance down and she noticed the way that the Persian kitten had literally stopped Lena from moving closer, and she had to be thankful for that. Whether or not she wanted to, her thoughts filtered into the minds of those creatures around her. Even so, she realized that it was obvious to any living thing that there was something wrong here.
"I'm going to take Jodie and Oz out," Nat explained with no transition into the new subject. With those words, the two dogs quickly got up, walking over towards her. "Feel free to see yourself out. Please." Quickly, she turned and headed towards the bedroom door.

Natalie's brush off was made clear and a moment after she went to her room, the pups came trotting out, still sleepy but curious as to what went down. Lena couldn't do anything but grab her things and go.
She was going to let Natalie cool down before she tried to talk to her again. There was no way she was going to lose her friendship with Natalie but she knew when to call it quits and so she did.
After leashing Jude and Johnny and encasing Leo in his bag, the Aussie left the apartment and went home.
