Inspired by ormery's pictures and names given to me by troped. Rule 63 Billy and Teddy (Willa and Teddy) based on the prompt "elbows" oh so lovingly given to me by ormery.

"What are you doing?"

Willa looked up at Teddy, looking kind of like a puppy caught chewing on its own foot. Teddy liked comparing Willa to a puppy - both were so endearing in the same awkward, scruffy way. Slowly, Willa pulled her hand away from her opposite elbow and swallowed in embarrassment.

"It's all dry and... stuff."

Teddy smirked and put down her pen. Both of them had previously been working on homework, but Willa's had been long abandoned in favour of picking at her elbow, which apparently was "dry and stuff."

"Isn't that what moisturizer is for?" she asked, "When your skin is dry and stuff?"

"I tried that!" Willa replied, pouting and collapsing onto the back of her chair. "It didn't work."

Teddy picked her pen back up. "We're superheroes now. It happens."

"Easy for you to say," Willa said, slumping a little more. "You don't have to have dry elbows if you don't want them."

Teddy sighed, knowing that tone. "I think it's cute," she said. "I love your dry elbows."

There was a blush on Willa's face already, but she made an effort and rolled her eyes. She couldn't however, come up with any words indignant enough to come back with, and she gave up as Teddy got up out of her chair.

"It's true," Teddy said, wrapping her arms around Willa's shoulders and pressing her lips briefly against Willa's cheek. "Your dry elbows are great. I like them. I like all of you."

"...I like all of you too," Willa replied, as if the words were just spilling out of her mouth as the blush crept across her face.

With a charming grin, Teddy stood upright and rested her hands on Willa's shoulders. "I'm gonna go get us some ice cream. You should get a move on on those chemistry questions."

Willa groaned and slumped again, finally picking up her pen again and and giving her homework another go as Teddy - who liked her dry elbows - left the room in search of ice cream. Smiling to herself, Willa decided right then and there that she'd definitely like to keep Teddy around for a while. After all, when would be the next time she'd find a totally dreamy girl like Teddy who liked her dry elbows?
