The game still had a little bit left before it was over, but Juniper already had such a solid lead that Anella wasn’t quite sure she was going to be able to catch up. So, halfway through, she started thinking less about how to catch up and more about how to sabotage Juniper.
She’d noticed her feet were cold, and no amount of wiggling or trying to tuck them under herself was working.
Juniper was on the other end of the couch, though. So focused. So distracted. So warm.
Anella glanced out of the corner of her eye and realized she could see a bit of skin peeking out.
Her feet felt colder.
She moved, slowly at first. Gradually. Her eyes returned to the screen.
She didn’t have to see to know what she was doing.
She stuck her cold feet on Juniper’s back like they belonged there.

Game nights with Anella were always…over competitive. And Juniper should have been aware that her girlfriend wouldn’t just allow herself to lose with grace. That had never been her way, but she thought that the sabotage would come like it always did, with Anella managing to drop her controller and putting the game on the fritz or somehow managing to unplug it.
The feeling of icy cold feet on her back was something she would have never expected. And therefore, Juniper should have.
For a moment she just blinked, confused and surprised and unable to really process what had just happened, but finally she yelped and tried to shy away from Anella’s cursed, frozen feet. “What the hell, Nellie! That is betrayal of the worst kind!”
And of course, the shock did what it was meant to, and Juniper’s race car fell off the side of the track, just as she was about to cross the finish line. <********! Why are your feet so cold?”

“I thought you loved me!” Anella said, and while she was still pressing buttons on the controller it was clear that her attention had shifted to her new game, trying to stick her cold feet back on Juniper’s back so she could unfreeze them.
“I’m so cold, Juni, please. Come back. You’re so warm,” she said, and accidentally ran her car into the side of another one so hard that the AI car propelled off the tracks, too.
She wiggled her toes and stuck her lower lip out in a pout. “I don’t know why they’re so cold, help me. Pretty please. I’d do it for you!”

Juniper took a moment to collect her thoughts, and then had the presence of mind to pause the game before she turned to Anella, raising a brow. “Oh, I do love you, you devil woman. And I also know for a fact you wouldn’t help me with my cold feet, as I recall you kicked me out of the bed one night because my icy foot brushed against your oh so sensitive calf. So don’t give me that, seriously.”
She turned towards Anella and took hold of her ankles, looking at the cold feet with an annoyed expression before setting them on the couch and sitting on top of them, wriggling to get comfortable. “There. Now they’ll get warm and I won’t get frostbite on my highly sensitive back. And I can go back to kicking your a** in this race. So long as your sabotage didn’t let ******** Wario beat us both.”
It wouldn’t even be the first time that such a thing would have happened. That stupid guy was always working so hard to beat them. And often did when Anella was losing. What a strange coincidence.

Oh, no! She paused the game!
Anella was trying so hard not to just giggle at all of it.
She wiggled her toes beneath Juniper but seemed content with this, because even if she did lose the game, at least she’d won this battle. She’d have toasty feet by the end of the race no matter what.
“I didn’t say I’d let you put your cold feet against me, but I would help. An electric heating blanket, or Doggie. You know, he lets me put my cold feet under him. He even likes it.”
The dog was currently asleep on the floor, half curled onto his back and half kicking off the couch. A few seconds ago he’d picked up his head to see what the two were up to, but he was used to squealing or swearing and was already back to sleeping through their shenanigans.
“Anyway, I wasn’t sabotaging you. I had a disadvantage, I was succumbing to hypothermia. You’ve saved me, Juni. Maybe we shouldn’t even bother with this race, I could just kiss you for being my hero instead.”

Juniper hummed, half amused, half exasperated. “One of these days, I’m going to divorce you for this abuse, Nellie poo. I just hope you know that.” Not that they were married yet, or even engaged. But. Still. She would divorce her. “If you can put your cold feet against me, I will and should be able to do the same, Doggie was right here, you know. He would have been able to warm you far more quickly. This was nothing but a cruel trick!”
She thought for a moment, and then shut the power off on the console and turned to face Anella, her expression grave. “You’ve cheated for the last time, Anella Harwood…it’s time to take your punishment!”
Lunging for the other woman, Juniper began to tickle her, grinning and covering Anella’s mouth with her own.
God. One day she would marry this woman.

Anella roared into laughter but was particularly mindful not to break the kiss. She immediately returned Juniper’s affections and started tickling her back.
Oh well, the joke was on her.
Anella had a double win out of this; she got to be kissed silly and she didn’t have to lose the video game.
This wasn’t punishment at all.
And, afterwards, she was pretty sure she could convince Juniper to let her take her out for hot fudge sundaes.
