Nicky sat across from Lorna and smiled at her. She knew she was the girl for her, the one she'd been waiting for her whole life. She smiled at Lorna and Lorna smiled back making Nicky smile more. She loved Lorna so much. Nicky put her tray away and walked away smiling. She passed Tiara who was still half asleep.
"Two things you need to know. One. Your smiling", Tiara said.
"Yep", Nicky replied.
"Two. You're in prison", Tiara said.
"Yeah. I happened to know that bit too kid", Nicky replied.
"Well they don't really go, especially not at seven am", Tiara replied.
"Im just happy", Nicky replied.
"Good luck with staying happy, its prison", Tiara replied.
Nicky walked to her bunk and brushed her hair. She wanted to look good for Lorna. Tiara came in and watched Nicky. She smiled as Tiara handed over her lipstick to Nicky. She looked at her confused.
"Put some on, it'll make you look pretty and reds your colour", Tiara said.
Nicky put the lipstick on and turned to face Tiara. She was petrified at what Lorna was going to think of her, she doesn't usually wear lipstick but Lorna does so maybe she'd like her more if she was wearing it too. Nicky knew Lorna liked her for who she was anyway. Lorna walked in and Tiara walked out to give them some space. Nicky smiled at Tiara.
"Oh honey you've got lipstick all over your teeth", Lorna said.
Nicky looked in the mirror horrified. Lorna giggled and got a napkin and wiped the lipstick off Nicky's teeth. Nicky smiled as she tried to cover up the embarrassment of not being able to apply lipstick properly. Lorna smiled at Nicky.
"You should of asked Tiara, me or Red to help you put it on", Lorna said.
"You all make it look so easy though", Nicky said.
"Oh you know, Practice makes perfect", Lorna replied.
"Yeah", Nicky replied.
Lorna walked away as Nicky laid on the bed annoyed she didn't get to tell Lorna how much she loved her. Tiara came back after watching Lorna leave. She walked in and saw Nicky looking annoyed.
"What's up", Tiara asked.
"I had lipstick on my teeth", Nicky replied.
"The clue in the word lipstick is a big enough clue to tell you it doesn't go on your teeth", Tiara replied.
"Tiara. Don't get me wrong, I love you as a prison sister but your stupid arse jokes aren't helping right now", Nicky replied.
Nicky looked at Tiara after her outburst. She never meant to take her anger out on Tiara but Nicky's plan had fucked up after Lorna had walked away. She wanted to get everything perfect to ask Lorna out and to be her prison wife. Tiara sat next to Nicky on the floor.
"This is fucked up man", Nicky said.
"No. You just need the right time and not red stained teeth", Tiara replied.
Nicky went to go and find Lorna. She looked everywhere for her but couldn't find her anywhere. Nicky then looked behind her to find Lorna mopping the corridors. She walked out and smiled at her. Lorna smiled back. Lorna stopped mopping for a little while and looked into Nicky's eyes. They both felt love for each other. They leaned in for a kiss.
"Inmate your job is to mop the floors so mop the floors", Ryder Blake said.
"One day I'm gonna make him slip over", Lorna said.
"I'm sure you will kid", Nicky replied.
Lorna carried on wiping the floors smiling at Ryder Blake as she did it. She wasn't looking to impressed with her. Suzanne came along also mopping the floors but she slipped and fell over. Ryder was trying not to laugh and Lorna rushed over. She helped Suzanne up.
"Oh Suzanne honey are you ok", Lorna asked.
"It's ok. It was an accident. I know that. Me and Moppy are fine. Yes we are", Suzanne said.
"You sure honey, you took a bad fall", Lorna replied.
"We used to have a CAUTION. WET FLOOR sign but it broke", Suzanne said and raised her voice at cation wet floor.
"Well we need a new one", Lorna replied.
"I asked and they said NO THAT'S HEATH AND SAFETY. I asked the woman with the brown hair and looks like a witch", Suzanne replied.
"Miss Figueroa is that who", Lorna asked.
"I dunno but she's scary", Suzanne replied.
"Well as long as you're ok", Lorna replied.
"Have you seen the English girl", Suzanne asked.
"Tiara", Lorna asked.
"Yeah that's the one, she has pretty hair and plays charades with me where I can have a turn", Suzanne replied.
"I love that game", Lorna replied.
"Wanna play? But you'll have to be on clock duty sometimes, we rotate", Suzanne replied.
"That's ok", Lorna replied.
Lorna finally finished mopping and went to find Nicky. She was in the bunk sitting with Tiara giggling. Lorna entered their bunk and sat on her bunk smiling. She didn't dare sit on Red's after she watched Red make it earlier. She looked over at Nicky.
"What did you want to tell me earlier", Lorna asked.
"It doesn't matter", Nicky replied.
Nicky left the bunk and Tiara went after her. They went and sat on the floor in the chapel for a private moment. Nicky knew she'd just messed everything up of what she could of had with Lorna. Tiara was looking at her. Nicky was looking down at the ground regretting what just happened. Lorna was the one person in the prison she loved and it was the first time she'd ever felt like that about someone.
"I know I fucked up", Nicky said.
"You fucked up big time there", Tiara replied.
"I just couldn't find the words to explain how I feel about her", Nicky replied.
"My brother once asked a girl out by telling her we had a dog like her once", Tiara replied.
"Your brother is weird, no offence", Nicky replied.
"Its ok, I know his weird. He brought me up and now his bringing Billie up because her mother had to fuck up and go a little too far and kill the man who tried to kidnap her", Tiara replied.
"But that makes you one badass mum", Nicky replied.
"Suppose, but we need to talk about you and Morello", Tiara replied.
"I love love her so fucking much. Every time she smiles my heart skips a beat. She smells so nice. Her eyes look like puppy dog eyes they are so adorable. Shes the kindest person I've ever met, well the sweetest. She's the rose to my thorn. The high and I'm the heroine, The cloud to my sun. The ketchup to my fries. Like Shakespeare and a verse. We are like the wind and a kite. The light to my tunnel. The love of my life", Nicky said.
"No offence but at one point I forgot I was talking to you and thought I was talking to Suzanne", Tiara replied.
"I'm gonna tell her", Nicky said.
Nicky got up and went to find Lorna. Tiara followed but went to her bunk and read some of Lorna's old magazines. Nicky searched everywhere and then found Lorna in the games room. Nicky took a deep breath. She walked over to Lorna.
"Oh hey Nicky", Lorna said.
"Lorna Morello. I love you so much. Please will you go out with me", Nicky said.
"Yes", Lorna replied.
Nicky and Lorna shared a kiss when no one was looking and then hugged one another. They smiled at each other and then sat together. Nicky was so happy she found the courage to ask Lorna out. She smiled as she lent her head on Lorna.
