***this takes place after SBR in a au***

It's been three months after the race. Diego just left town last week for a saddle trot race that was in Europe, he said he would be back next week but hotpants couldn't deny that she would miss him. Waking up in the morning without him beside her made her sad.

Well it was another one of those mornings, waking up in the cold room with the big window on the left side, with pale blue sheer curtains that let light flood into the room. Her being half asleep she turned onto her side to meet Diego's face. But he wasn't there and she remembered he was out of town.

She propped herself up against the brown hardwood bedframe and looked at the room around her. The grey hardwood floor, with a black fur carpet. The big circle mirror that was on the wall, facing the bed. The shelves with plants, rocks and small plastic dinosaurs. She looked into the nightstand on her side of the bed and grabbed the silver necklace with a small silver cross on the end.

During the race, diego wore it under his turtle neck, it was something his mother gave to him when he was little and he cherished it. Diego also knew hotpants loved that necklace. When diego left to go out of town he left the necklace behind so hotpants would have a 'piece' of diego with her. Ever since he left, she's worn it everyday. She was planning of buying a necklace for diego, in case she goes out of town for something.

She grabbed the necklace and laid back down and dangles it over her face. Oh how she missed diego, she missed his cuddles, him making her coffee, she really missed playing with his hair (and vise versa) and most of all she missed his random conversations of random topics that popped into his head. Like what's the best type of coffee or 'what would happen if I turned into a cat?'

She props herself against the headboard and laid up, she put the necklace around her neck and moved the blanket off of her. She walks to the closet that was shared between the two, she grabs one of diegos light green pullovers and pulled it over herself, wearing a black thong and a black lacy bra. as she pulled diegos pullover over her head she took a deep breath in, it smelt like diego, fragrant dried tea leaves and leather, his cologne, sauvage still lingering in the fabric.

Ever since the first time diego hugged hotpants she loved the smell, as weird as it sounds the smell of him calms her down, making it one of her favourite smells ever. She snaps out of her thoughts and fixed her hair and walked into the bathroom, that was attached to the bedroom. She started to brush her hair and shortly after, brush her teeth.

After she finished getting herself ready she walked into the living room and laid down on the couch, letting her uncovered lower body be exposed to the crisp, cool air. She turned the tv up and watched whatever was on the channel.

Because of the tv being loud, she didn't realize the door unlocking and opening. She thought she heard something and looked over at the front door and saw diego standing in the doorway. He was shutting the door behind himself and putting his bags down beside him.

Hotpants saw him and she quickly got up and walked over to him, he looked up and saw hotpants and they pulled eachother into a tight hug. Hotpants looked down at him
"I thought you were coming home next week?" She said smiling and slightly pulling away from the hug.
"The race finished early, I had the option to stay another week like I was supposed to but I just wanted to come home and see you." Hotpants let out a small laugh as diego grabbed his bag and walked upstairs, into there room and placed his bags down beside the bed. He walked back downstairs and looked hotpants up and down.
"Are you wearing my sweatshirt?" Hotpants laughed and nodded.
"Of course I did"
"Well it looks good on you." Diego said walking towards hotpants, looking up at her and giving her a toothy grin. She rolled her eyes and reached behind her neck and unhooked the necklace from her neck and placed it around diegos neck.
