As the movie comes to an end and the credits start to roll, I'm still holding Sophie's hand having done so throughout the rest of the movie, every so often playing with her fingers and having quick glances and smiles from both of us. I check my watch seeing it's only just gone 9pm before I reluctantly remove my hand from Sophie's as I stand and put my jacket on and she does the same, before making our way to the exit. As we walk through the foyer of the cinema, I look down to her hand swinging slightly by her side, really wanting to hold it again. I see her glance at me, her eyes then following my line of sight as she suddenly slides her hand into mine linking our fingers and I look up to her and smile at her as she returns it. 'Soooo, what do you wanna do now?' I ask her as I swing our hands between us.

'I dunno…' she says and I feel her playing with my fingers.

'Well… it's still quite early, but did you want me to drive you home yet?' I ask hoping that she doesn't want me to just yet.

'No.' and I feel myself smile.

'Okay… well… do you wanna go somewhere for a drink, or we could just go for a walk… or back to mine for a bit?' I ask her a little hesitantly, as I look at her. I don't want her to think I'm trying anything funny.

'Okay yeah, do you mind if we go back to yours, it's kinda cold out, and I'm not really in the mood for a pub.' she says locking eyes with me.

'Okay sure.' I smile at her as we make our way outside and begin walking back to my car a few blocks away. The drive to my apartment was pretty relaxed as we listened to the radio and just chatted about the movie, even though I didn't really watch much of it, I was pretty distracted every time Sophie's fingers played with mine or her thumb brushed over my knuckles, and she did it quite a lot, I don't know if she knew she was, but I wasn't complaining.

'Well, here we are.' I say as I pull up outside my apartment, switching of the engine. 'Wait there a sec okay.' I say as Sophie nods, and I undo my seatbelt, opening my door and stepping out into the cold air. I make my way round to the passenger side, opening the door for Sophie and she looks up at me and smiles before stepping out and giggling slightly. 'What?' I ask smiling at her.

'Nothing… you're just very polite.' she says smirking, as I return it.

'Are you complaining?' I ask with raised eyebrows while smiling and she shakes her head.

'Definitely not.' I keep my smile as I swing the car door shut and press the remote locking as the headlights flicker on and then off.

'Come on you.' I say as I grab her hand in mine and lead her with me towards my apartment. As we reach my front door, I let go of Sophie's hand, allowing me to unlock it, before pushing it open and gesturing for her to go in ahead of me, before I follow her through and we walk into the living room.

'Make yourself at home and I'll get us a drink.' I say taking my jacket off and hanging it on the back of a chair, seeing Sophie also removing her jacket, folding it over her arm and glancing around the living room, as I make my way into the kitchen. 'So what would you like to drink?' I call back through to Sophie as I open the fridge crouching down to look in. 'I've got… beer, cider, erm… I think I have bottle of wine somewh…'

'Erm, just a coke would be good if you've got it thanks.' Sophie answers before I could finish listing off anything else. I raise myself back from the fridge slightly still holding the door open, as I call back through to her.'

'You sure?'

'Yeah, maybe I'll have a glass of something in a bit.' she replies making me smile at the fact she is already thinking of staying for longer than one drink. I grab 2 cans of coke from the door of the fridge and stand back up closing it, making my way back through to the living room, seeing Sophie standing studying a photo of me and another girl on the shelf in the corner.

'Jenny.' I say as Sophie swings around to look at me, still holding the framed photograph, with a slight frowned expression.

'Huh?'

'Her name's Jenny.' I say nodding towards the photo she's holding.

'Oh right… she said looking back at it again for a second, before speaking. 'Someone special?' she asks as I walk over until I'm right next to her and hand her one of the cans of coke, before taking the photo frame in my now free hand as I rub my thumb over the picture, remembering back to when it was taken.

'Yeah, someone pretty special.' I see her brow furrow a little, but she forces a small smile as she looks to me.

'She's beautiful.' she says quietly.

'Yeah she is…' I say smiling at the fact she's clearly jealous but still wanting to be polite. 'Guess it must run in the family.' I say casually as she looks to me and I grin as she looks a little confused.

'She's my sister.' I smile. 'She lives with my dad in France, I haven't seen her for over a year.' I say, placing the frame back on the shelf.

'Oh.' she says, her expression softening. 'I didn't know you had a sister. How old is she?' she asks as she walks over, placing herself in the middle of the three seated sofa, and her jacket over the back.

'She just turned 20 in October, but she was only 16 when that picture was taken.' I say following her over to the couch and placing myself next to her.

'Wow, she looks older in it… so how old were you?' she asks.

'In that picture' I say glancing back up at it for a moment. 'I would have been… 19.' I tell her seeing her grin.

'So that's what teenage Sian looked like.' she says looking back to the photo. 'And I think you're right you know.' I look at her furrowing my brow slightly, encouraging her to continue. 'Beauty must run in the family.' she says with a smile and I smile back at her words.

'Well aren't you the proper charmer Sophie Webster.' I say playfully as she laughs, but also blushes slightly before opening her drink and taking a sip.

'I try.' she says cheekily. 'I love your apartment by the way.' she says changing the subject and I can't help but be a little disappointed.

'Thanks.' I say smiling as I open my drink slowly, hearing the hiss as it releases some of the gas before I take a sip, feeling the fizz refreshing my mouth and tingling against my throat as I drink it. 'It's actually the first apartment I ever rented for myself and I could just never get rid of it or move to somewhere else… kinda a sentimental thing I guess, this place marked my independence ya know, so when I'd earned enough of my own money I bought it… I guess that probably sounds ridiculous right?' I say feeling a little dumb as she watches me.

'No. Why would it sound ridiculous?' she asks looking at me with a slight frown.

'Well… ya know…' I start as she raises her eyebrows slightly over the top of her can as she takes another drink from it. '…me, living here in a small apartment when I have enough money to buy somewhere much bigger, and in a better area.'

'Hey.' she says softly as she reaches over and entwines her free hand with mine. 'You're not ridiculous… I think it's a really good thing... and it's just one more thing for me to like about you.' I hear sincerity in her voice and I search her features seeing honesty in her eyes. 'I'd like to think I'd do the same in the future if I ever get through my course and finally earn some decent money.'

'You've never actually told me what you're studying at college.' I say realising that in the five months I've known her, we've never even discussed her course.

'Erm… engineering.'

'What, like cars?'

'No, more like space… I wanna go on to study Aerospace Engineering if I get into university.'

'Wow… so you're going to send people to the moon?' I smile impressed.

'Well, I want to try… I've got one more year at college and then another 2 years at uni… that's if I get into the uni of my choice.' she says sounding a little vulnerable.

'Hey, I'm sure you'll do brilliant and get into the uni you want.' I smile.

'Thanks.' she says returning a small smile as she leans over and sets her coke can on the small table next to the sofa just beside a small lamp that's sat on it, and I copy her actions placing my can on the table on the opposite end of the sofa before turning back to her.

'So what made you want to do that?' I ask her genuinely interested in getting to know more about her. Truth be told, as much as I already know that I have strong feelings for her, we really still don't know all that much about each other, but I definitely want to know everything about Sophie Webster.

'I dunno really, I just always loved the sky and learning about space. I remember begging my parents when I was younger to let me have a skylight in my bedroom so I could just lie and look out at the stars at night… never got one though.' she laughs. 'I know it probably sounds a bit weird, but it's always been relaxing to me to just look up into the sky when it's filled with millions of stars and know that there's so much more out there.' I watch her intently seeing how her eyes light up and her face glows as she talks about something she loves. I suddenly realise she's stopped talking and is now looking at me with a grin on her face, knowing I've clearly been in my own little world while staring at her.

'Sorry.' I blush slightly as she smiles at me and I return it, suddenly getting an idea. 'Come with me a sec, if you like looking at the stars, you'll love this.' Keeping hold of her hand, I push myself up from the sofa, 'The view from the roof is amazing.' Suddenly feeling resistance as I stand, I'm pulled back down on to the sofa next to Sophie, making me giggle slightly before I look up to her and see her studying my face.

'I already have the most amazing view right in front of me.' she says moving her gaze to my eyes, staring right through me, and I can't help but smile, not just at her words, but how she manages sounds so sincere. The way she's looking at me makes me get major butterflies in my stomach and I catch myself glancing down towards her lips before back up to meet her beautiful blue eyes. Pushing my suggestion of the roof to the back of my mind, replacing it with a much better idea, I lean into her cupping both sides of her face, I push my lips on to hers feeling her respond immediately making me smile into the kiss as she quickly places her hands on my sides. Running my hands into her hair feeling her part her lips slightly, I instantly do the same, unable to stop myself from letting out a small moan as I feel her tongue meet mine. She gently tugs on my waist, pulling me on top of her so I'm now straddling her lap and her thumbs move under the bottom of my top gently caressing the skin there and I feel goosebumps rise. She may be the first girl I've ever been interested it, but she makes me feel more from one simple kiss than anything I've ever done with a guy and I so badly want to feel more. I remove one of my hands from her hair and run it down her neck, over her collarbone, skimming over her chest hearing her gasp slightly, before I reach the bottom of her vest top. Slowly lifting it up and running my hand over her smooth toned stomach, I feel her soft skin against my fingertips. The kiss becomes more passionate and after a couple of minutes we break for air as she kisses me softly again before resting her forehead against mine. I feel her light breaths against my lips and I open my eyes to see hers still closed … god she really is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

Sophie's POV

Holding on to Sian as she sits on my lap, I can feel her soft skin as I stroke her sides, loving the fact she got goosebumps from my touch. Keeping my eyes closed after we break from the kiss, I take a few moments to steady my breathing before flickering open my eyes to see Sian watching me, staring right into me. This is the second time we've found ourselves in this position and I know that I definitely want her, like REALLY want her. The way she's looking at me right now, it gives me a warm feeling inside, like I'm the only one she's ever looked at in that way, and the way she kisses me feels like she's kissing me with everything she has in her, like she wants me to feel what she's feeling… god I hope she feels like I do, cos' right now, I feel amazing.

'You're so beautiful Soph.' she says still keeping her eyes on mine, bringing her hand up from my stomach cupping my jaw, smoothing her thumb over my cheek, making me smile. Moving one of my hands up from her waist and placing it on the back of her neck pulling her lips back to mine, as I take her top lip between mine feeling hers close over my bottom lip, they start moving together so perfectly. Twisting in the seat, I manoeuvre us around pushing Sian gently down on to the sofa, never breaking the kiss as I bring my feet up from the floor and hover above her holding myself up with my hands either side of her. Parting my lips more and feeling her do the same, I push my tongue in her mouth, the kiss growing more heated as she wraps her arms around my back and pulls me closer. Running one hand down her side feeling her toned body, I reach her thigh and run my hand down to her knee as I raise it up so it's bent at my side and I continue to run my hand slowly up and down her thigh. I take my lips from hers and gently begin placing kisses along her jaw and down her neck, hearing her moan quietly making me suck on her neck softly. Feeling her hands tangle in my hair as she holds me close against her neck encouraging me, I continue with my kisses, moving further down as I slowly push her top from her shoulder allowing me access to her collarbone, where I can feel more of her smooth skin. I hear her let out a heavy breath, before I move back up to her face, pushing my lips against hers instantly feeling her tongue enter my mouth, I can't help but let out a small moan of approval as I feel her smile into the kiss and I move my hand to the inside of her thigh as I slowly move it up. I suddenly feel one of her hands stopping mine from going any further and I freeze taking my lips from hers and I move my face further back to look at her.

'What's up, you okay?' I ask her worried I'm trying to push things too fast.

'Yeah, never better…' she says breathing a little heavy. 'I just… I…'

'What is it Sian?' I ask, unable to hide the concern in my voice.

'It's just… I dunno, have you ever… y'know… urgh…' She looks down for a second, then back up to me. 'Well, have you ever been with another girl before?' I feel myself blush slightly, but I don't move my gaze from hers.

'Well, no…' I say seeing a small smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. 'But I'm sure I can figure it out.' I say as I lean forward and kiss her lips softly before pulling back to look at her again. 'Have you?' I ask her as she shakes her head lightly, making me grin knowing that I'll be her first too. Staying quiet for a few moments as I continue looking at her, taking in her beauty, seeing a small chicken pox scar on her forehead I'd never noticed before, realising how bright her eyes really are, the fullness of her lips, how smooth her skin is, I feel a smile spread across my face.

'What you smiling at?' she asks smiling back.

'You… you're perfect.' I say honestly, moving a piece of hair away from her face and pecking her lips.

'Shut up.' she says as the colour fills her cheeks. Pulling back and sitting up I dig into my jeans pocket for my phone, as Sian sits up quickly beside me.

'Where you going?' she asks me, sounding worried.

I pull out my phone and move back over closer to her. 'Say cheese.' I say as I hold my phone up in front of us and move my face next to hers as our cheeks touch, feeling her smile. Hearing her giggle, I smile and press the button to take the picture before lowering my phone to look at the photo seeing me smiling and Sian smiling whilst biting her bottom lip. Turning slowly to look at her as she does the same, our faces only centimetres apart, I feel her warm breath against my lips as she runs her hand along my arm taking my phone in her own hand. I let my hand fall to rest on her waist as I feel her lips press softly against mine making me instantly close my eyes. I hear the camera on my phone capture another photo and smile into the kiss. It lingers for a moment longer before Sian pulls away and looks to my phone, my gaze follows hers seeing the photo of us kissing making me smile.

'You may not want to have that one as your screensaver.' she says as I laugh a little before going to put my phone back in my pocket, hearing her clear her throat loudly making me look to her again. 'Are you not going to send it to me then?' she asks with raised eyebrows and I smile widely at her.

An hour later and I'm sat on Sian's sofa watching some late night tv with my arm around Sian and her snuggled into me. I sent the photo that Sian had taken of us to her phone like she asked, and every so often I catch her glancing down to her phone to look at it and it makes me smile every time. She actually saved it as her screen saver since she doesn't have anyone like my parents to worry about seeing it, and she said that then she can see me whenever she wants… so cute. We've been sat here in an comfortable conversation for most of the last hour, just relaxing and enjoying spending the evening together. Looking at the clock on the wall, seeing it's almost 11:30, I take a deep breath and shuffle in the seat which makes Sian lift her head from where she's resting against me and look at me.

'You okay?' she asks as I smile at her.

'Yeah perfect.' I say as she returns the smile. 'It's just getting late, so I thought maybe I'd call a taxi.' I say as her smile falters a little.

'Don't be silly Soph, I'll drive you home.' she says sitting up more. 'Let me just go to the bathroom and then I'll take you.' She moves to stand up from the sofa, but before she can, I grip tight to her waist and pull her closer to me again so are faces are inches apart. Leaning in, I rest my forehead on against hers as our nose graze against one another and I place a soft kiss on her lips. 'Okay, now you can go.' I whisper as I pull away and see her eyes still closed. She flickers them open and bits her bottom lip making me smile. She goes to stand from the sofa again, which I let her this time as she makes her way to the bathroom and I stand to put on my jacket.

Pulling up outside my house, Sian cuts the engine as the car falls into a peaceful silence, as she turn her head to look at me. 'I had a great time.' she says as I smile at her.

'Me too. Thank you for taking me out.' I say seeing her study my face, before lifting one of her hands to my face and brushing a piece of hair behind my ear, letting her hand drop back to her lap.

'I really wanna see you again soon… are you free tomorrow?' she asks, and here comes the butterflies in my stomach again. I bite my bottom lip trying to supress the huge grin that's wanting to erupt across my face.

'Yeah.' I say as I glance down to her lips licking my own before looking back to her eyes.

'Okay, well I'll give you a text tomorrow then.' she says smiling.

'Okay.' I smile before moving to release my seat belt and going to open the car door. Feeling a hold on my upper arm all of a sudden, I smile to myself before quickly turning back to be met by Sian's lips instantly against my own. Rummaging both of my hands through her hair as she brings hers to my face and our lips continue to move together. I tilt my head to the side slightly, grazing my tongue against her lips and she instantly accepts as I hear a hum come from her which vibrates into the kiss as I deepen it even further and it becomes more passionate. After a few moments I slow the kiss down, pulling away and resting our foreheads together, 'You are so good at that.' I say quietly as she flickers her eyes open and smiles at me.

'Mmmm.' is all she says as she licks her lips, running her thumb over my cheek before leaning in and pecking my lips again. 'I'll see you tomorrow yeah?' she whispers and I feel her warm breath against my lips.

'Definitely.' I say biting my bottom lip whilst smiling and she sits back in her seat, as I open the car door and step out into the cold air. Making my way up the path to my front door and turning around as I reach it, seeing Sian waiting to make sure I get inside safely. I unlock the front door, turning around again once I've stepped inside so I can wave to Sian, seeing her wave back before she starts her engine and drives away. Making my way through the house to my bedroom, thinking to myself that the smile on my face can't get much bigger, I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket.

Hey Soph,

Thanks again for a perfect evening. Can't wait to kiss u again.

See u 2moro.

Sian xxx

Okay so I was wrong, my smile has just grown ten times bigger, and I get to see Sian again tomorrow. Life does not get much better than this.
