Tess stumbled over her words. "Um, Frankie?" she called.
Frankie came into view in the hallway and was about to speak but stopped when she saw Cat at the door.
"You guys go and sit with Sadie." she said, not taking her eyes off Cat.
"Bu-" Tess protested but Lexy cut her off.
"Come on." she said quietly, pulling Tess gently by her shoulders and leading her back into the living room.
Frankie walked to the door and leaned on it. "I told you to leave Cat."
"You didn't mean it Frankie." came the reply.
"I know..." Frankie said simply, dropping her gaze.
"I love you." Cat ventured.
"I love you too." Frankie replied, lifting her head. "Does Sam know you're here?"
Cat shook her head, smiling slightly.
"You always were one for breaking the rules." Frankie smiled back.
"Frankie!" Cat cried, her face dropping.
"Okay, I didn't mean that either." Frankie replied, smirking. "So, what are you doing here?"
"I can't let you go, not like this." Cat looked down.
"Cat...you can't cheat on Sam again..."
"First time I've heard you being sensible." Cat smirked.
"You've got yourself to thank for that." Frankie joked, but stopped smiling when she saw Cat's face. "Okay, well, Tess's play is at the weekend, so, come to that with me, provided that Sam doesn't catch on, or Sadie."
"Why does Sadie matter?" Cat tilted her head.
"She just...does." Frankie dismissed it. "Do you wanna borrow a jacket?" she asked, noting how Cat had been stood in the rain.
"Best not to" Cat laughed.
"Well, come in and dry off then, everyone's in the living room so we can sit with them." Frankie opened the door fully and let Cat inside.
After a short time protesting, Tess had settled down on the sofa, sitting inbetween Lexy and Sadie.
"They've been talking a long time..." Tess pointed out.
"They've got a lot to sort out I guess" Sadie replied.
"Well, Frankie's got a way of...breaking down and giving up where Cat is involved, and Cat acts the same, so who knows what's happening." Tess sighed.
Frankie walked back into the living room, followed by a dripping wet Cat, who smiled weakly at everyone in the room.
"Hi guys." Cat gave a tiny wave.
"Hi Cat" Tess smiled back awkwardly.
Sadie offered Cat a smile but Cat wasn't even expecting that from Sadie.
"How're you doing Cat?" Lexy asked, acting as if nothing had happened that afternoon.
"I'm good." Cat smiled, shooting a glance at Frankie before turning back to Lexy. "Better thank you, you?"
"Yeah, things are going well." Lexy smirked.
"Any room for one more over there?" Cat gestured to the sofa.
"Yeah, I guess we can kick Tess off an-" Lexy joked before Tess cut her off.
"We can not kick me off actually!" Tess protested, turning to face Lexy.
"We can move you though" Lexy pointed out, pulling Tess from her seat and putting Tess on her lap.
"Can you two not be cute?" Sadie moaned "You'll make me sick."
"Anything makes you sick Sadie, leave them alone." Frankie laughed, sitting on the floor.
"No, it's just alcohol and couples." Sadie replied blankly.
Cat sat awkwardly on the sofa, glancing at Frankie.
"What?" Frankie mouthed.
"Lexy and Tess?" Cat mouthed back.
Frankie nodded her head.
The rest of the evening past without any events, Cat had stayed for a few hours and then left, leaving the four women to discuss random topics. Tess had relaxed into Lexy soon after Cat sat down and was still in that position while Frankie had moved up onto the sofa to sit inbetween them and Sadie.
Tess had begun to yawn.
"Are we keeping you up?" Frankie laughed at Tess as her eyes began to droop.
"Yeah actually." She yawned again.
"Come on you." Lexy smirked, pushing Tess off gently and standing up.
"Where are you two off too?" Sadie smirked.
Frankie scoffed and burst out laughing.
"I wish." Tess yawned again, "I'm too tired."
"Aw, poor Lexy" Frankie joked.
Lexy threw them a look before laughing herself.
"I should probably get to bed too actually." Frankie pointed out. "Come with me?"
"Anything's better than sleeping on the sofa" Sadie scoffed, standing up.
Tess sat down on her bed in her pyjamas and sighed.
"What's up?" Lexy asked, who was sitting next to her.
"Nothing, it's just been a busy day hasn't it?"
"You're telling me." Lexy laughed.
Tess slumped and laid in bed.
"I fought with Frankie who fought with Cat, who fought with Sam who found out about Cat and Frankie's affair and-" Tess was cut off by Lexy, who laid behind her and kissed the back of her neck.
"It's okay." she whispered.
Tess smiled slightly. "Are you at work tomorrow?" she asked.
"Yeah." Lexy replied. "I'll be home in the evening though."
"Hmm..." Tess mumbled. "You're coming at the weekend aren't you? I know you don't like plays bu-" Tess was cut off again.
"Of course I'll come." came the reply.
Tess turned round to face Lexy. "Thank you." she smiled.
"For what?"
"Giving me a shot."
"My pleasure" Lexy smirked, "Now get some sleep okay?"
Tess bit her lip and nodded, smiling slightly.
"Night." she smiled.
Tess woke up later than usual, she had put it down to being more relaxed than usual.
Being with Lexy was more than definitley the reason for that.
Tess smiled as she thought of her new girlfriend and turned round to face where she would be laying, but the bed was empty.
She tried not to let herself get too down-hearted as she knew Lexy was at work today.
Tess pulled herself out of bed and walked slowly across her room, pausing to look at herself in the mirror.
Her hair was everywhere and she really looked tired. She sighed before pulling open the door and walking into the front room, not suprised to find Sadie. However, she was suprised to find Sadie curled up on the sofa with a shocked and worried look on her face.
"Where's Frankie?" Tess asked.
"Still in bed" Sadie replied blankly.
"Oh, okay. What's up?" Tess continued.
"I gave in." Sadie explained. "I had sex with Frankie."
Sorry it's short I've had a lot going on this weekend, I'll get more chapters out quicker this week. Thank you so much for sticking with the story!
