Chapter 4
Much to the playful brunette's delight, the prissy blonde stood by her side and supported her every step of the way while she was in the academy. Almost every morning, Britney woke up early and helped Sarah get ready for her day. And almost every evening, Britney was there to greet Sarah when she got back to the apartment safely.
Despite the blonde's hectic schedule, she helped in any way she could. She allowed Sarah time to study despite her selfish and needy nature. She attempted cooking for her whenever Sarah was too busy to do it herself. Most fun of all, they had plenty of practice wrestling matches. Although these weren't as competitive as their previous catfights, they served as a fun and unique way to get in a good workout.
Through Britney's excessive worrying, she and Sarah became closer than ever before. The spoiled blonde had a whole new perspective for her former rival, now that she understood her life could be in danger at any moment.
Unfortunately, the model couldn't be there for the brunette during her last few days of the academy. She was on a modeling trip her company did every year. Though she was hours away at a beach resort, it was no vacation for her knowing she wasn't there for Sarah.

Despite not having the beautiful blonde around, Sarah was having an incredibly successful final week at the academy. It started off with her crushing the final physical exams. Not only was she way faster and stronger than the other women, she was competitive with most of the men as well.
After gaining a little weight during college, Sarah was able to achieve a greater fitness level than ever before. All the exercising she did, along with the practice matches she had with her surprisingly fit girlfriend, really helped her out. Sarah also did a lot of cooking at the apartment, and because her model girlfriend constantly had to work on her figure, she normally cooked healthy meals.
Of course, Sarah didn't just exceed physically, she killed it academically as well. On the final exams, she achieved one of the highest scores, proving she had the brains to match her muscles.
Fortunately, the few cadets who outscored were the same students she actually cared to talk to. However, there were a few ladies who were jealous of the young brunette's dominance during the entire academy.
Kenzie, a feisty athletic girl with curly light brown hair, sat with her friend Chelsea, glaring at the young woman. As Sarah walked by, the two confident women decided to speak up.
"Are you excited about graduation?" Kenzie asked.
"Oh, umm... yeah..." Sarah responded, a bit taken aback by the sudden conversation. "Are you?"
"We sure are," Chelsea, the strawberry blonde, answered. "We're just surprised you scored better than us on the physical and the written exams."
"Oh, yeah..." the smart brunette responded, shrugging her shoulders. "I guess I got lucky."
The curly headed brunette then spoke up. "So, Sarah... Do you have a lot of family coming to see you graduate?"
"Umm... Not really... I kind of didn't tell them..."
"Why wouldn't you tell them?!"
"My family wouldn't really support me going into law enforcement... They think it's too dangerous... so I decided not to tell them until it's too late to turn back."
"So, nobody knows you're going to be a deputy?" Kenzie asked with a big smirk.
Sarah began twiddling her thumbs nervously. "Well... just Brit... my girlfriend..."
A grin appeared on Chelsea's face as she looked over at her friend. "So, Brit isn't coming to graduation?"
Sarah looked around nervously. "Umm, she might... but she's on a modeling trip right now... She will be back the day of graduation, but... she might not make it on time."
Kenzie placed a hand over her mouth, pretending she was surprised. "What a shame! We may never get to meet this mystery woman."
"It wouldn't be the biggest shame in the world," Sarah replied, almost laughing at how unpleasant Britney could be to women she didn't like. "Anyway, I need to get going. Nice talking to you, though."
As Sarah walked off, the two women were left rolling their eyes from the encounter. "Everyone seems to love Sweet Sarah, but I don't think she's all that great," Kenzie said, glaring at the brunette as she walked off.
"Neither do I," Chelsea scoffed. "And I can't believe she's still pretending she has a model girlfriend."
"I know, right? What a loser."

When Sarah got back to the apartment, she gently tossed her items to the ground before collapsing onto the bed. Letting out a sigh, she grabbed her phone and texted the blonde model.
A few seconds after she sent the text, her phone buzzed from an incoming call. Realizing it was Britney, her eyes lit up like fireworks as she quickly accepted the call. "Hello?!"
"Hey! Why do you sound so surprised to hear me?"
"I was expecting you to be busy," Sarah answered, smiling the hardest she had since the blonde left for the trip. "I know how busy you get during the photoshoots."
"I usually am, but I'm just at the hotel right now. I don't have anything until dinner tonight. What's going on?"
"Oh, nothing... but I was just wondering... do you think you'll make it to my graduation?"
"Sarah, we talked about this," Britney responded in a soft tone. "I'll try my best to make it but I might be pretty late. You know how flights can be."
"I know... I just wanted to see if you had any updates."
"You sound pretty worried. You must really want me to show up so you can show me off to all your friends."
"Kind of..." the brunette responded, getting a little red. "A couple of girls asked about you today. I'm starting to wonder if they even believe that you exist."
"A couple of girls you said?" the model asked, sounding slightly suspicious. "Who are these girls that are so interested in your relationship? Are they pretty?"
"It doesn't matter," Sarah answered, chuckling. "And nobody is as pretty as you are."
Though Britney was used to receiving compliments about her looks, for some reason, whenever it came from Sarah, she was left giggling. "You've gotten really good at giving me compliments. You must really miss me, Baby."
Sarah was blushing and smiling so hard, her girlfriend could almost see it from the other side of the phone. "I do..."
"I can't wait to show you some of the bikinis and lingerie I got here."
"Oh, stop..." the brunette replied, squirming in bed as she thought about the blonde model wearing such sexy outfits for her. "You're making me miss you even more..."
"Maybe that's what I wanted..."
"But I already miss you a lot..."
"I bet you really miss me in the shower, don't you?"
The brunette let out a subtle moan. "I sure do... I hate that I have to wash myself."
"Yeah, I do such a better job than you do," Britney said in a cooing voice. "Especially when you're tired from a long day of training."
"Mmmhmm... You always take such good care of me."
"That's right, Baby. Only I know how to take care of you."
Letting out a deeper moan, Sarah slid her hand inside her panties. After teasing herself just a little, she asked, "Do you miss the way I put you to sleep every night?"
