"And how many times do I have to tell you? Call me when you know where you are staying! It's not that hard!" Vinny, Sians father screamed at her as they were pulling into their drive way.
"Yes, dad, I know and I'm sorray, okay?! I lost track of time and my phone must have died through the night" Sian said as she looked out the window, raising her voice.
Vinny parked the car and turned off the ignition. He was barely stopped before she was opening the door to get out.
"I'm gonna go have a shower and get ready for tomorrow" She said as she put the key in the door and pushed. Vinny breathed out and shut the car door as he started walking towards the house.
Sian entered her room and threw her bag on her bed. She looked around for a jumper and some jogging pants as she planned on having a shower and wanted something comfy to wear afterwords. She got her clothes out for the next day, as well as her jumper and jogging pants and laid them out on top of her dresser. She then grabbed some accessories to go with what she was going to wear tomorrow and laid them on top of the clothes. She then made her way to the shower looking forward to the hot water hitting her skin.
After she was squeaky clean, she headed back to her bedroom wearing a towel when she saw her phone going off. She sat down on her bed and saw that Sophie had been texting her.
"Sian, we really need 2 talk about things. Will ya ring me plz?"
"Plz just ring me. It's not what u think. And even if it were, it's no reason not 2 talk 2 me."
"I miss u… we always spend Sundays 2gether. I wish I could see u. Ur my best mate n all."
Could Sian be making a big deal over nothing? Why else would Sophie keep saying "it's not what you think." She was right though, even if something did happen, its not reason not to talk to her. Sian picked up her phone and decided to give the brunette a call. The phone didn't get a full ring in before Sophie picked up.
"Sian?!"
"Erm, heya, Soph."
"I'm so glad you called. I've been dying to explain what happened."
"I'm sorry I've been such a cow. You are right, if something did happen, I shouldn't avoid speaking to ya. Can you forgive me?"
Sophie didn't even give Sian a chance to finish the sentence when she bellowed out "Of 'course I can! But I still need to explain."
"… Okay."
Sophie cleared her throat and began.
"Right, well, it all started when Ryan tried to talk you into a three some with him and his-"
"WHAT? He never!" Sian squealed.
"Yeah, he wanted to get it on with you and his bird! Anyway, I walked over and let's just say I broke up the conversation… and I thought you could do with a bit of settling down. So I took you up stairs and dabbed your face with a cold cloth because you were looking a little warm. That's when you told me to took some E and started talking about the last time we took it together. Next thing I knew, you were snogging me."
Sophie stopped talking for a second to let Sian get her head around what she had just said.
"Continue?"
"Erm… yeah go on then" Sian said as she breathed out, closing her eyes and laying down on the bed.
"So um, then… then I started kissing you back and… well you… let's just say things started to get heated after you pushed me down on the bed."
"Oh my god…"
"I won't go into detail, but I figured I better stop what we were doing before something did happen even though I didn't want to stop, I mean you were off your head and-"
"You didn't want to stop…?" Sian asked.
"What? I never said that-"
"Yes you did, you just said-"
"Yeah well, I'm hungover aren't I? I'm not thinking straight."
Sian said nothing and there was a dead silence.
"Fine, I didn't want to stop. I like… kissing you when we are drinking. I think we established this already, ay? Let's move on"
Sian had a huge grin on her face. "Awwwwhhh, Soph, thats dead sweet" she said teasing her.
"Hey, you obviously like kissing me too, otherwise you wouldn't have started it!"
Sophie filled Sian in on how the rest of the night went, before and after their heavy make out session in the bed room. Sian was mortified that she kissed Sophie in front of all their friends. She knew she would get teased tomorrow at college. She wasn't ashamed, she just didn't want to be made fun of.
"Soph, I'm sorry I avoided talking to you… even more so knowing it was my fault it all started. Your my best mate and well, I love you. I wish I came back to yours."
"I love you n all, don't worry about it. I'm just glad everything is back to normal."
"Right, well on that note, I'm going to go get dressed. I've been laying here in a towel this entire time and I'm freezing."
The other end of the line was silent.
"Soph?"
"Yeah, erm, yeah I'm here."
"Did ya hear what I said?"
"That you are laying in a towel?"
"Ha ha, no, well, yes but that I'm gonna go get dressed. Perv!"
"Oi! I'm not a perv. But okay, I'll see ya tomorrow, yeah?"
Sian smiled, "yeah, I'll see ya then, Soph. Good night."
"Night, Sian."
After she hung up, she got up with the same smile on her face when she felt her phone buzzing. She looked down and saw it was from Sophie.
"Since u aren't here… xxx… :D"
Sian hit reply instantly and started tapping away:
"Don't remind me that I'm not there when I should be :(. Love ya xxx ;).
The next morning, the girls met at college. They both hated Monday mornings with a passion. They shared some classes together so it made part of the day go by fast.
Sophie was sitting on the bench outside the school waiting for Sian. She flipped open her mobile to check the time when she felt the weight of the bench she was sitting on shift. She looked up to find Sian sitting beside her with two cops of tea. Sian put her bag down and passed Sophie a cup.
"Heya Soph."
"Hey, thanks for the cuppa" Sophie said, smiling.
"Welcome." Sian looked away and sighed.
"Alright?"
"Um … yeah. Sooo, are ya ready for another day?" Sian said as she changed the subject almost instantly.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
The blonde's eye's looked down as Sophie took a drink of her tea and noticed Sophie spilled a few drops on her skirt. She then looked a little further south at Sophie's crossed legs. She always thought Sophie looked good in their school uniform. Even if it was a little baggy, she always could pull it off. Sian snapped out of her trance, licked her thumb and rubbed on the spot where Sophie spilled her tea. She always took care of Sophie like a big sister would and Sophie always loved that.
Sian's eye's wondered down to Sophie's legs again as she was trying to rub the tea out of Sophie's skirt. She started to feel warm, like all the blood was rushing in to her face.
Sophie started to feel Sian rubbing a little harder than before. She was about to say something when she looked at Sian, who was looking at her legs. Sophie decided to watch Sian. She seemed so focused and in her own little world. What was she looking at? It's like she never saw Sophie in her school uniform before.
"Erm, Sian, I think it's dry now."
Sian continued to rub on Sophie's thigh, not hearing a word Sophie said.
"Sian!" she said as she put her hand on top of Sian's to keep it from moving. Sian looked up at Sophie's hand on top of hers.
"Uh? What?"
"I think you got it, yeah?"
The blonde's eyes got right big as she realized what just happened and that Sophie caught her being a perv. Sian didn't like girls, but when she saw Sophie in that uniform after kissing her, she started looking at her in a different light. This freaked Sian out because she was straight. She didn't like how Sophie was making her feel. Sian got up and looked at her hands.
"Right… sorry. I better get going. Don't want to be late."
"Sian..."
"No, I'll see ya later" Sian said as she started walking away.
Sophie just frowned and watched Sian walk away.
It felt like the day was crawling by. The girls usually met up at lunch time. They sat at the same table as their friends every day. As Sophie sat down with her lunch, she greeted her friends and noticed Sian wasn't there. As her friends asked her where Sian was, she lied and said the blonde was running a bit late as she pulled out her mobile to see if Sian sent her a text. She didn't want their friends to think something was up. When she saw there were no texts, she decided to send one:
"Heya Sian, just wondering where u r. We're at the usual spot."
Sophie started eating her lunch and talked to her friends before she realized that lunch was more than have over. She decided to text Sian again:
"Are u okay? Plz txt me back, I'm worried."
A few seconds later, she got a reply from Sian:
"I'm fine, Soph. Just in the library ... I'm working."
Sophie immediately stood up, tucked her mobile into her pocket and pushed in her chair.
"Where ya going, Sophie?" Morgan asked as she took a drink of her juice.
"Just gonna go see Sian. I'll talk to ya later, yeah?"
"Cheers."
Sophie left the cafeteria and ran up the stairs towards the library. She knew something was up. Sian never misses a chance to eat and since when did she do work in the library? Maybe she felt embarrassed about what happened this morning? Sophie was going to get to the bottom of this.
She opened the door and walked in. She herself was not familiar with the library either. She looked around at the purple walls that had a bunch of inspirational pictures spread out. To the left was the a librarian behind her desk and straight ahead was some shelves filled with books. To the right was a little walk way that took you into another room that was filled with tables and chairs. She walked through and immediately found Sian, she was the only blonde there. She sat there, with her legs crossed looking down at the table, twirling a piece of hair with her index finger and thumb.
"What are ya doing?" Sophie asked as she scrunched up her forehead.
"Nothing, why?" the blonde asked as she continued to stare at the table.
"Well you said you was working up here, didn't ya?"
"Uh? Oh, yeah, right" Sian said as she cleared her throat.
"Sian, what's going on? Your acting dead weird" Sophie asked as she sad down beside Sian.
Sian turned to Sophie and let out a another sigh. She looked into the eyes of the girl sat beside her and got lost. Lost in the little twinkle that was always there when Sian was around.
"Me dad threatened to send me to my mums again because I didn't call the other night."
"Well he threatens that all the time and it never happens. Why are you sad about that?" Sophie asked as she put her hand on Sians under the table for comfort. She could see Sian was clearly upset.
"He didn't threaten it this time, I only know about it because I heard him talking to my mum on the phone." Sian started blinking really fast and Sophie could see the tears that were threatening to fall. "He said he thinks I could do with a bit of time away from here and-"
Sophie cut her off by pulling her into a tight hug, rubbing her back. "It's gonna be okay, Sian. We will figure this out, yeah? You aren't going anywhere."
Sian held on to Sophie tight as the tears in her eyes started to over flow silently. The girls stayed like that for a little while until Sian pulled away. Sophie noticed her tear stained face and wiped away her tears with her thumb.
"I can't move, I can't loose you, Soph, I just can't" Sian said looking down at her hands.
Sophie took her right hand and lifted Sians chin so that Sian was looking at her. Sophie looked deep in her eyes and said "you won't loose me. I'm not going anywhere and neither are you. We will sort this out." They both plastered a sad smile on their faces and just looked at each other. It was like time froze or slow motion. Both girls were slowly leaning in, getting closer and closer in the middle of the library. Then they were just millimeters apart, the both jumped as the bell rang to go back to class. Sian looked around to see if anyone was looking as she said "we better get back to class, ay?" When she looked back, she looked at Sophie who was looking at their hands, realizing they still were tangled together, stuck in her own thoughts.
Sian could clearly see this news upset Sophie even though the brunette tried to put on a strong face. Sian wanted to comfort her and be comforted by her. After thinking about what it meant if she were to live with her mum, she knew she couldn't live without Sophie. She wanted to kiss her. A hug just wasn't enough anymore.
"Soph?"
Sophie snapped out of whatever she was thinking about and withdrew her hands and put them in her pocket. "Yeah, sorry, let's go before we are late".
Both girls got up and walked out of the library on their way to their classes.
"I'll see ya last class, yeah?" Sophie said as they were standing in the hall way.
"'Course, come here" the blonde said as she pulled in Sophie for one of her 'famous' hugs. She held Sophie and rubbed her back as she tucked her face into Sophies neck and shoulder.
"Thanks"
"For what?" Sophie asked.
"For being you" Sian said smiling and pulling away. "I'll see ya later.
With that, Sophie watched Sian as she walked away. She quickly turned around and headed for her next class.
