Nina x Lily

Nina x Lily is the femslash ship between Nina Sayers and Lily from the Black Swan fandom.

Canon
Nina and Lily first meet when Lily, as a new dancer, arrives late to the ballet studio where Nina performs, distracting Nina during her audition for the role of the Swan Queen on the upcoming Swan Lake performance.

Days later, during a gala arranged to celebrate that Nina got the role of Swan Queen, as Nina is trying to leave the bathroom she encounters Lily, who formally introduces herself to Nina. Nina is slightly surprised by Lily's character, as she watches Lily take out her panties in front of her with little embarassment. Lily congratulates Nina for her role and Nina smiles, trying to excuse herself out of the bathroom. Lily playfully asks her to stay with her, but Nina leaves anyway. After this encounter, Nina focuses her attention on Lily whenever they are on the same room together, unable to take her eyes of her.

Days later, feeling frustrated with her failed performance of the Black Swan during practice and after a stressful encounter with the director, Thomas, Nina cries all alone in the studio after rehearsal, obsessed with achieving perfection. Lily enters the studio and tries to comfort Nina, offering her a cigarette. As Lily talks with her about her opinion on Thomas, who she thinks tries to use his position as director to sleep with the ballerinas, Nina defends Thomas. After Lily makes a joke about Nina having a crush on Thomas, Nina gets angry and leaves.

Nina gets angry with Lily the next day, after Thomas angrily asks her if she needs to take a break since Lily told him to go easier on Nina. Lily defends Nina from the other ballerinas. However, Nina still scolds her for her comment and tells her she doesn't need any help, making Lily leave irritated.

That night, during a confrontation with her mother, Erica, Nina hears someone knock her door. Erica quickly answers and closes the door, refusing to tell Nina who that was. Nina goes to open the door and sees Lily about to leave. Lily tells her that she came to apologize and invite her to go out for drinks to make out for what she caused. At first, Nina seems reluctant to go, but after Erica orders her to stay home, she agrees to go out with Lily. Nina and Lily go to a bar and they chat casually. Lily notices that Nina is a bit stiff and stressed, so the offers her a pill of ecstasy to relax. Nina initially turns it down and goes to the bathroom, where she sees Lily dropping the contents of the pill into her drink while chatting with two men. Nina returns and asks Lily if the pill will last too long, and Lily assures her it will only last for a couple of hours. Nina accepts and drinks her whole glass. As the effects of the drug start to take effect on Nina, she begins to open up and talk to one of the guys while starting to show signs of sexual interest on Lily. Lily sits beside Nina and they almost kiss as Nina rests her head on Lily's shoulder. Lily takes Nina to the dance floor, where Nina starts losing some grasp of reality while staying physically close to Lily, the two of them hugging while dancing.

Suddenly, Nina finds herself kissing a stranger and tries to leave. Lily spots her as she is exiting the bar and asks her where she is going. The two of them take a taxi to Nina's home. Sitting in the backseat, Lily pokes Nina's leg and they gaze into each other's eyes. Lily slowly moves her hand towards Nina and slides it into her pants, masturbating Nina by massaging her crotch. Nina initially enjoys it, closing her eyes in pleasure, but eventually takes Lily's hand out of her pants and holds it. Lily laughs and the two look out the windows of the taxi.

Nina and Lily arrive drunk to Nina's appartment, laughing at each other. They find Erica angrily waiting for Nina, but as she asks Nina where she went, Nina and Lily still laugh together while Lily can be seen subtly flirting to Nina. After Nina gets into a fight with Erica, who slaps her, Nina takes Lily to her room and prevents her mother from entering. As Nina responds to Erica that she is not a girl anymore, Lily hugs her from behind. After locking the door, barricading herself with Lily in her room, Nina turns her back and looks at Lily, who gazes back suggestively at Nina. Nina rapidly walks towards Lily and they start french kissing passionately. As they undress eachother, Nina hungrily looks at Lily, who laughs and smiles at Nina's show of dominance. They keep kissing and undressing to their underwear until Lily throws Nina into the bed. Lily gets on top of Nina and takes out her panties before they kiss again. Lily starts kissing down Nina's stomach, massaging her breasts, putting Nina's legs on top of her shoulders. Nina gasps as she watches Lily kiss her thighs and start to orally pleasure her. Nina moans, but as she looks at Lily she has an allucination where she sees her face in Lily, which freaks Nina out, interrupting her. Lily shushes and gently kisses Nina to calm her before kissing her path down towards Nina's legs again, while Nina sees Lily's back tattoo morph into swan wings. Lily licks Nina's crotch again, causing Nina to climax. However, as they look at each other after Lily wipes Nina's fluids of her lips, Lily suddenly smothers her with a pillow.

Nina wakes up the next morning, confused, hungover and with Lily nowhere to be seen. She arrives late to the studio to see that Lily is dancing her part as Swan Queen. Nina confronts Lily, asking her why she didn't wake her up, but Lily tells her she never went home with her. Heartbroken, Nina leaves, questioning if her encounter with Lily really happened or not.
