Hello everyone, thanks for reading this story and I hope you enjoy this chapter too. :)
Bo and Lauren were still outside the house, They were wrapped in each other arms, they couldn't stop smiling at each other and sharing kisses.
They were so lost in each other that they didn't hear the front door opening, until someone clear their throat.
They both slightly jumped at this unexpected interruption.
"Tamsin, wha...is there a problem ?" asked Lauren awkwardly, her happiness was visible on her face.
"No, no problem at all." She smiled, relieved to know her friends finally been honest with each other."Your mom is wondering where you gone and who was the last person who knocked. Should I send her here ?"
"No !" Exclaimed Lauren."We're coming now."
"Okay." Smiled Tamsin, before letting Bo and Lauren alone.
"You're ready ?" asked Lauren.
"To meet your parents, you mean ?" chuckled Bo, nervously.
"Don't worry, it will be fine." Smiled Lauren."They're gonna love you !"
Bo breathed deeply before saying."Okay, I'm ready."
Lauren smiled at her, she took Bo's hand in hers and lead them into the house.
It didn't take long for Snowflake to run up to them.
Bo smiled happily while she says."aww, he's so cute."
Lauren couldn't help the smile she had while she watched Bo stroking Snowflake's soft fur.
They were still standing in the corridor when Linda walked to them."Hi !" she says.
Lauren started the introductions."Bo, this is my mom Linda, and mom, this is Bo my…my..."
"Is she your new girlfriend ?" asked Linda, enthusiast.
"uh..." Lauren didn't know what to answer.
"Yes, Mrs Lewis. I'm her girlfriend." Smiled Bo.
"This is...Awesome !" Exclaimed Linda." But please, Bo, no Mrs here, you can call me Linda." she adds with a smile.
"Okay." Smiled Bo."I'm happy to meet you, Linda." she says while she handed her hand to Lauren's mom.
"Me too."Said Linda with a huge smile while she shakes Bo's hand.
A ring to the door interrupted them.
"You should go introducing Bo to your father, Lauren. He's gonna be so happy." Said Linda before going open the door.
"That went well." Said Bo with a sigh of relief. "I hope your dad will be as welcoming as your mom."
"Don't worry about that." Smiled Lauren."I just hope he's not going to make silly jokes."
"I hope it was okay to present myself as your girlfriend ?" whispered Bo, before Lauren opens the door of the living-room.
"It was more than okay." Smiled Lauren, before she took Bo's hand and lead them into the room.
"So, is Bolo a real thing ?" Smirked Evony, when she sees Bo and Lauren holding hands.
"Bolo ?" asked Lauren while she frowns.
"That's your shipname." Answered Evony, while she sipped a glass of wine.
"Kenzi is the one who found it." Said Tamsin. "She was actually very proud of herself, when she came up with it."
"Where is my dad ?" asked Lauren.
"I'm here, sweetie." Said Archibald as in came into the room."I just went to check the horses."
Bo heart started to race as she waited for Lauren to introduce her, she didn't know why, but meeting Lauren's dad felt more stressful than meeting her mom.
"Dad, I want you to meet Bo, my...girlfriend." Smiled Lauren.
"What are you intention with my daughter ?" asked Archibald, while he stared at Bo with defiance.
Bo swallowed hard, unable to utter a word.
Archibald burst into laughter before saying."I'm kidding, young lady. Besides, I already know, Tamsin would kick your ass for me, if you ever hurt Lauren."
"You bet, I would !" Exclaimed Tamsin.
"I know I can always count on you, Tamy." Smiled Archibald, before turning his attention back to Bo."It's a pleasure to meet you, Bo."
"I'm very happy to be here." Said Bo, a little more relaxed than previously.
Archibald smiled and says to Lauren."Well, this is what I call, an upgrade, sweetie."
Lauren sighed at her father's remark, while Tamsin couldn't stop giggling.
Linda comes back in the living-room with her sister Mary, her niece Ciara, and Hale who is Ciara husband.
Lauren was happy to see her cousin again, she and Ciara use to be close when they were younger, but unfortunately, when they grew-up, life started to part them. Still, they always loved seeing each other and were grateful for occasion like Thanksgiving who allowed them to stay in touch.
She was also happy to introduce Bo to everyone, even if their relationship were very new, saying "my girlfriend" when she talked about Bo, Lauren knew it was something who would never fail to make her happy.
The dinner was going well, After the stressful part of meeting Lauren's family passed, Bo relaxed quickly, everyone was so kind and even if Bo was very happy to be here, a part of her was sad to not have known what a "real" family looked like until today,even if she was grateful to have her grandfather who always took care of her. She also thought a lot about Kenzi and really hoped that her best friend wasn't alone tonight.
Bo and Lauren were sitting next to each other, their hands couldn't stop brushing against each other and they knew it wasn't accidental every time.
They both couldn't be more grateful that in this moment. Bo was relieved to finally have been honest with herself and with Lauren. While the blonde on her side, even if she was happy, still had a lot of things on her mind and she couldn't stop the fear that Bo could eventually step back again. But every slight physical contact she shared with Bo was enough to reassure her, she knew that what she had with Bo was real and she was decided to trust her.
After the end of the dinner, Mary, Ciara and Hale said their goodbye to others while Bo was ready to help Lauren's mom doing the dishes until Linda stopped her kindly. "Enjoy the rest of your evening, Bo, you're our guest." She said with a smile.
"I'm going to help you, Darling." Says Archibald while he gets up.
"Your parents are adorable, Lauren." Smiled Bo."You're lucky."
"I know." Said Lauren."I told you, they were going to love you."
"Well, I'm good at charming the member of the Lewis family." Said Bo, humorously.
Lauren smiled at her, she really wanted to kiss Bo now, but she didn't want to risk to draw too much attention on them, so she slightly bit her own lips in the hope of making her urge go away.
It was a gesture that didn't go unnoticed by Tamsin who asked "Do you want us to leave you two alone, so, you can make out like horny teenagers ?"
Lauren cheeks blush in embarrassment while Bo says jokingly pointing at Evony and Tamsin."As if you two are better."
"Whatever." Said Tamsin."I'm gonna check if Linda and Archibald need help."
"I come with you, babe." Says Evony while she gets up and follows Tamsin in the kitchen.
"So, now that we're alone..." Smiled Bo. "Would it be inappropriate if I'd kiss you in your parents' living-room ? "
"It would not be inappropriate at all." Says Lauren with a smile."In fact, that's even would be recommended."
After this answer Bo didn't take long to pull Lauren in a loving kiss.
After they break the kiss Bo says."As much as I love your mom's cooking, nothing tastes better than you."
Lauren blushes before saying."You are smooth."
She was about to kiss Bo again, until she heard Evony's voice."Get a room !"
They slightly moved away from each other after this reflection while Tamsin gets back from the kitchen giggling before she hugs Evony from behind and kissed her neck.
"And they say we're the one who need a room." sighed Lauren.
After this, Linda make her entrance into the room and says."Actually, we should all get to bed. Family Diners are great, but exhausting."
Lauren opened her bedroom door and hold it, letting Bo entering into the room before her. "You're a gentlewoman." the brunette says.
"For you, always." Smiled Lauren.
Bo scanned Lauren's bedroom, she smiled before saying."It's cute, this place looks a lot like you."
"It didn't change a lot since I moved from here when I was twenty."
Bo gets closer to Lauren, she was about to kiss her when she suddenly remembered. "Oh shit, I didn't take anything with me. I don't have any nightwear."
"I guess, you will have to sleep naked, then." Lauren chuckled until she saw Bo tense-up."I'm kidding, Bo, I'll lend you a nightwear."
Lauren gives a quick kiss on Bo's lips before pulling away from her before opening her closet. "Let's see, what I have for you." She says while she searched a nightwear for Bo.
After pulling away a blue pajama pants with white stars on it and the top that come with it, Lauren handed it to Bo and says."It's not as cool as the one you lend me…But I hope it will do it."
"Don't worry." Bo says while she took the nightwear."It's perfect."
Bo and Lauren were peacefully laying on the bed, the blonde was on her back while the brunette's head rested on her chest.
Lauren stroked lightly Bo's hair, wondering how she even gets so lucky to have this wonderful woman in her arms.
A loud moaning who was coming from another room disrupted the atmosphere the two women were in. They both know it was coming from Tamsin and Evony's bedroom.
Surprise by this noise, Lauren stopped stroking Bo's hair while the brunette couldn't help a giggle before asking, "Aren't they afraid your parents hear them ?"
" My father is a very sound sleeper and he snores loudly since forever, my mom has to wear earplugs every night."Lauren Answered."Tamsin knows that, so, we're the only one who can hear them, and I guess they don't mind that."
"They probably think it could give us some idea." Bo chuckled, before she felt Lauren tense-up.
Bo got up slightly before saying."It was a joke, Lauren. I don't expect us to do anything tonight."
"Sorry...I have been with the same woman for ten years, it's probably sound silly, but the idea of having sex with someone else, even if I really want to do that, feel like a first time for me."
"It's not silly at all." Smiled Bo."I understand what you mean. Besides, it's gonna be a first time for me too, and I want our first time to be special."
"I don't want you to feel pressured to do anything, Bo." Said Lauren.
"I don't feel pressured at all." Smiled Bo, before looking deeply into Lauren's eyes and putting her palm softly on Lauren's cheek. "I lo...want you, all of you."
Lauren smiled, she noticed that Bo almost tells her she loved her, but it was probably too soon for declarations like this, the most important thing was that they both knew they felt the same way about each other. "I want all of you, too." She says.
"Good." Smiled Bo."I really think that what we have is too precious and special to risk being wasted. I want to wait until the time is right."
"I agree with you, Bo. And when the time will be right, we will both know it, Besides, it's already our second night together." Lauren chuckled.
"Yeah, it is." Smiled Bo."But this one is better."
"Really ? Why that ?"
"Because, I can do that." Says Bo, before putting her lips on Lauren.
Lauren savored the taste of Bo's lips,she entangled her hand in her girlfriend's hair when the brunette slowly slipped her tongue into her mouth.
After they break the kiss, they rested their forehead against each other before Lauren starts chuckling.
"What ?" Asked Bo.
"You know when you ran away after the first time we kissed, I spent days worrying that I was a bad kisser and that's why you didn't want me."
"I can assure you, you don't have to worry about that." Bo chuckled. "I kissed a lot of people and I can tell that you are the best of all."
"Well, I can't say that I kissed a lot of people, but I also think that you are the best kisser I ever had." Smiled Lauren.
"I hope I won't be disappointing for the rest." Bo chuckled.
"Don't worry about that." Said Lauren before yawning.
"That's the sign that we should try to sleep." Says Bo before turning-off the light.
They both lay on their sides, face to face while their hands found each other under the sheets.
Lauren stretched before she opened her eyes, She was the first to wake up, and it has been a long time since she has slept that well.
She looked next to her, brunette hair was displayed on the pillow. She smiled at this vision, Lauren knew she would never stop to be amazed by Bo's beauty. She was also relieved to know that the events of yesterday haven't been just a very beautiful dream.
She looked at the alarm clock, it was already 10 A.M. They didn't plan to go home until tomorrow, so they still have the time, but Lauren wanted to show the ranch to Bo, she remembered when Bo had told her she never did horse riding and how much she regretted that, so Lauren was decided to make one of her dreams come true.
She stroked softly Bo's hair before putting a loving kiss on her cheek.
She saw the brunette stirring slightly, but she didn't seem willing to wake up. She mumbled something that Lauren didn't understand and put the sheets over her head.
Lauren chuckled at Bo's attitude and take off the sheets of Bo's face."Wake up, my love. We have an amazing day to spend together."
"Amazing, how ?" Asked Bo with a pout.
"Amazing, like, you and me together, doing horse riding." Smiled Lauren.
"Really ?" Asked Bo, excitedly.
"Really." Answered Lauren while she was about to kiss Bo until the brunette stop her by moving slightly away.
"I haven't brushed my teeth yet ." explained Bo.
"I don't care." Lauren chuckled.
"But I do. It's our first morning as a couple, I want it to be romantic."
Lauren chuckled before opening the drawer of her bedside table.
She took a box of mint lozenges and handed one to Bo before putting one in her mouth.
"Are we good now ?" Lauren asked with a chuckle.
"Yes." Smiled Bo before kissing Lauren.
Lauren smiled into the kiss, she really could get used to morning like that.
After getting up, Bo and Lauren were in the kitchen to take their breakfast.
Bo was amazed by all the choices she has, Linda already took the time to cook waffles and pancakes for everyone.
She also had the choices between maple syrup and all the different sort of jam.
"I wish we could live here forever." Says Bo while she took another bit of her pancake.
Lauren chuckled while she watched Bo, her thought wandered at the sight of her girlfriend licking the maple syrup from her own fingers.
"Maple syrup taste amazing, but that let my fingers sticky." She says while she gets up to wash her hands.
Lauren was snapped back to reality by Snowflake, who tried to get her attention and put his front paws on her thighs.
She smiled at the adorable dog and stroke his furry head.
"Do you mind if I call Kenzi, before we go to see the horses ?" Asked Bo.
"Not at all." Smiled Lauren.
"I'll be right back." She said before going in the garden.
She dials Kenzi number and she didn't have to wait long for her best friend to pick up the phone.
"So, Bobo, How does it go ? Please tell me your not drinking your sorrows in a bar."
"No, Kenzi." Bo chuckled."I'm still with Lauren, we plan to get back tomorrow."
"So, I take, Bolo is canon now." Bo could hear Kenzi smile through the phone as she spoke.
"You know, Kenzi, sometimes I really feel we don't speak the same language, But whatever." Bo chuckled. "If what you mean is that Lauren and I are a couple, then it's a yes."
"I'm happy for you, Bo."
"Thank you, Kenzi."Said Bo."How was your thanksgiving ? I still feel guilty to have let you alone on this day."
"Don't be, I had a good time, I wasn't alone."
"Really ? Are you back on the dating territory ?" Bo asked, surprise.
"I wouldn't say that, he's just a friend, it's nothing serious. Whatever, I have to hang up."
"Okay, see you tomorrow."
"Yes, have a good day in the unicorn land." Says Kenzi before she hang up the phone.
Bo chuckled at Kenzi last remark, she was right, since yesterday she really felt in the unicorn land.
Bo and Lauren were dressed to do horse riding when they stumbled on Tamsin and Evony into the corridors.
"Hello lovebirds." Said Tamsin. "How are you ?"
Before they could answer Evony asked."How was your night ?"
"Less noisy than yours." Answered Bo.
Tamsin blushes in embarrassment while Evony says."We don't have to apologize to follow our desires. You both should do the same."
Tamsin chuckled before she takes Evony hands and lead them outside the corridors.
Bo and Lauren arrived at the stable a few minutes later.
Lauren smiled when she sees her favorite horse," Come here, I want you to meet someone." She says while she takes Bo's hand and lead to the horse box.
Lauren enters into the horse box, and wasted no time to cuddle the animal. "This is Belle, she has been my best friend before Tamsin was." she says while she stroked the snout of the horse."
Really ?" asked Bo, who was still outside. "How old is she ?"
Lauren takes a few seconds to think before answering,"I don't remember exactly, but I'd say...Almost twenty."
"She's beautiful." Smiled Bo.
"She's even more beautiful when you look at her closer." Said Lauren."Are you scared of her ?"
"No, I'm not scared, I just...never been that close to a horse before."
"We don't have to ride today if you don't want to." Said Lauren, kindly.
"I want to...But...maybe not alone." Said Bo, shyly.
"I'll go behind you." Smiled Lauren.
"Thank you."
"That's what girlfriends are for." Smiled Lauren."Besides, I want that to be an enjoyable experience for you. That's the all points after all."
Bo finally enters the box and wrapped her arms around Lauren's waist before saying with a smile."You are the best girlfriend ever."
"You deserve the best." Smiled Lauren, before kissing Bo's lips quickly. "But before you're ready to be on the back of a horse, you need to feel safe enough to stroke her nose."
Bo hesitated a few seconds, but when she felt Lauren took one of her hands in hers that was all the strength she needed to reach out Belle's snout.
She slowly put her hand on Belle's snout and smiled when she stroked it.
"You see, you're safe." Said Lauren while she puts her hand behind Bo's back.
"I think I'm ready to ride her, with you." Smiled Bo.
"I didn't say she was the one we were going to ride." Said Lauren while she gets out of the box horse, followed by Bo "Belle is incredible, but she is also very stubborn and as much as I love her that would be safer for both of us to take another horse."
"Okay, I trust you." Said Bo while Lauren closed the door of the horse box.
"Maybe, you could choose the one you want and I tell you if it's a good choice." suggested Lauren.
"Okay...So...Let's see." Said Bo while she looked at every horse of the stables. "This one." She says, pointing a beautiful white horse.
"Aslan." Smiled Lauren."That's a good choice."
They entered the horse box, Bo was much more confident than previously. She slowly stroked Aslan's snout."I think I've made a new friend." She smiled.
Outside the stable, Lauren finished saddling up the horse while Bo watched her with admiration.
"Wow...You really know what you're doing !" Bo exclaimed.
"I have a lot of experience." Said Lauren."You'll get there too, one day."
"I will be happy if I ever feel safe to ride alone."
"Well, Aslan is good to go. Are you too ?" Lauren asked, handing one of her hands to Bo.
"With you, I am." Smiled Bo, while she takes Lauren's hand.
Lauren helped Bo to get up on the horse. "Don't worry, I won't let go of you." She says when she felt the brunette tense-up.
After Bo was secured on Aslan's back, Lauren who still had the brunette's hand in hers, gets up on the horse too.
She placed herself behind Bo's back and took the horse's reins that she placed in Bo's hands.
"Are you sure ?" Bo asked, slightly panicked.
"Yes, don't worry, I'm with you." Lauren says while she puts her hands over Bo's. "Are you ready ?"
"Yes." Said Bo, before Lauren started giving to Aslan the signal that he could start walking.
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the amazing lake, close to the Lewis's house.
Lauren dismounted from the horse and helped Bo to step off too.
They both sat on the grass, before Lauren asked, "So, what did you think of your first ride ?"
"It was amazing." Smiled Bo."Thank you, Lauren."
"You're welcome." Smiled Lauren."Do you think, you could be on Aslan's back alone when we will get back home ?"
"uh, maybe, why ?"
"It's just not really recommended to be two on a horse back." Explained Lauren.
"Oh… you should have told me, we, I mean...I would have made an effort to ride alone."
"Don't worry, Bo. It was only for a short walk, so it's okay." reassured Lauren. "But I would rather like not doing that two times, especially on the same day."
"I think I trust Aslan enough to be alone on him." Said Bo. "If you're still close to me."
"I will make sure you don't fall, don't worry." Smiled Lauren.
They both watched Aslan drinking the water from the lake in a comfortable silence, until Bo turned her attention to her girlfriend and noticed that Lauren couldn't stop ripping-off the grass.
"This poor grass didn't do anything to you." Bo chuckled.
Lauren stopped what she was doing before saying, "I can't help myself, every time I'm sitting on the grass, I have to...Whatever, it's probably because I never know what do to with my hands."
"Well, I guess, we should try to keep your hands busy, then." Bo says while she approached Lauren in a sensual way.
Lauren didn't waste any time and captured the lips of her beautiful girlfriend with her own, while Bo took one of her girlfriend's hand in hers.
After Lauren slipped her tongue in Bo's mouth, the kiss became quickly heated, and before she realized it, she was now lay on her back while the brunette was on the top of her, and slowly kissed her neck.
The more Bo's lips explored her neck, the more Lauren started panting. When the brunette reached the pulse point of her neck and licked it slowly, Lauren couldn't help the moaning who escaped her.
Before she could feel embarrassed, Bo mouth found hers again. Their tongues slowly danced against each other, while one of Bo's hands stroked shyly Lauren's waist over her clothes.
Even if they were both fully clothed, Lauren could already feel herself melting under Bo's touches and kisses.
Bo on her side, could feel her heart racing, she had become addicted to Lauren's taste and smell and she really couldn't wait to have more, but she also knew that now wasn't the right time for this.
She pulled away from Lauren before saying, panting,"I think we should stop now."
"Is there a problem ?" Lauren asked, worried.
"No, don't worry." Said Bo. "Gosh...Lauren, I want you, so much. But I feel that now is not the right time for...that."
"You're right, it's too cold to lose our clothes." Lauren chuckled. "Do you want us to go back home ?"
"Yeah..." Smiled Bo.
Lauren gets up from the grass and handed one her hands to Bo.
Bo smiled before taking Lauren's hand in hers and getting up, feeling Lauren's skin against hers was enough to make her heart racing again.
Lauren's helped Bo to get up on Aslan's back.
After she was comfortable, Bo asked,"You're sure you don't mind walking ?"
"With you by my side, I don't mind anything." Smiled Lauren.
