Firstly let me apologise for the soppiness of this chapter, I kind of just fancied doing something a bit sweet after the fight chapter and the sex. Also I'm aware the naughty scenes have all been Sian so I promise I'll do a Sophie one in the future. Secondly, thanks for the reviews, it means a lot that you guys take the time to leave a comment. Feel free to let me know of any suggestions you have for the story. And lastly, I hope you enjoy this chapter, its pure fluff.
"Tell me about you." whispered Sophie.
"What do you mean?" asked Sian, stroking the brunettes skin gently and smiling.
"What you said earlier, that we don't really know each other. I want to know you."
"Soph I was just angry at the time I didn't m-"
"No you were right, I don't know a lot about you, I want to know everything about you."
"Well that could take a while!" laughed Sian briefly before seeing the serious look in her girlfriends eyes. "What do you want to know?"
"Tell me about your life before here, I don't know anything. Like where you grew up and your school and your family."
"Well I grew up in Southport which I really liked. It was nice being next to the beach and walking along the pier and stuff. I'd love to go there with you sometime … get fish and chips and walk on the beach."
Sophie smiled. "That sounds perfect."
"Yeah it was really nice. My family aren't really that close. I don't have any brothers or sisters and my grandparents died a while ago. Basically it was just me and my mum and dad but they weren't happy together for as long as I can remember. They got married really young when my mum found out she was pregnant with me. I can always remember them fighting and my dad would go out drinking a lot so it wasn't really a surprise when they split up. However, it was a surprise when she got a new boyfriend so quickly. But I guess with my dad … I feel like he blames me for the way his life turned out, having to marry my mum and being forced into a 'family man' situation. And I've never felt loved by him so I guess that's why we don't get on. That and the fact he's a dick."
Sophie cupped Sian's cheek with her hand, gently rubbing the skin with her thumb. Although Sian would never show it, she could see the pain in her eyes and knew how much it hurt that her father had never really cared about her. How could someone not love her? She is the most perfect and amazing girl I've ever met.
"I find it incredibly hard to believe someone wouldn't love you." whispered Sophie, still stroking the blonde's cheek. "What about boyfriends? Have you ever been in love?"
Sian crumpled her forehead, searching her brain for the answer. "I don't think so. I mean I've really cared about people before. I was with my last boyfriend for a few months and I enjoyed being with him and stuff but … I already feel closer to you than I ever did to him. What about you?"
Sophie sighed. "I thought I was at one point. But I was so young I think I just confused love with … infatuation. You know what it's like when you're a teenager, you write little hearts next to their name on all your notebooks and diaries and you think your world would cave in if they left you but it's never that bad when it actually happens."
Sian nodded her head, a look in her eyes that showed she understood. "I like this." She whispered.
"Me too." said Sophie smiling. She had never felt so … content before.
Sian looked over at the clock next to her bed. "However … I think we better get some clothes on because I don't want my dad coming home and ruining a moment like this again!"
The next few minutes were spent getting dressed, the girls occasionally stopping to kiss or touch one another, each stealing glances at their girlfriend's bodies before it was covered.
As they stood in front of one another once fully clothed, Sian wrapped her arms around Sophie's neck, the brunette snaking her arms around her girl's waist.
Sian looked in to the blue eyes in front of her, thinking she could stare in to them forever. God, I think I could seriously fall for this girl. Don't say that out loud Sian, she'll think you're crazy. As she continued to gaze into Sophie's eyes, she could feel herself getting lost, a look of absolute contentment spread across each of their faces, her heart starting to rule over her head. She felt the words leave her mouth before she could stop herself.
"I think I could fall in love with you Sophie Webster." She suddenly blushed a dark shade of crimson as she realised what she'd just said but was reassured when she felt Sophie pull her in a little closer, resting their foreheads against one another.
"I'm so pleased I didn't know what time the bus came on the first day of college or I wouldn't have this right now."
Sian giggled, kissing the tip of the brunettes nose softly.
"Not as pleased as I am that you didn't run a mile at the nervous stuttering girl in front of you making a fool out of herself." She grinned as she said it although couldn't help but feel a sense of discontent and embarrassment that Sophie hadn't responded to the fact she could fall for her in the same way.
Sophie smiled, kissing the blonde. Although it was passionate it was unlike any kiss they had ever shared before, not rough and filled with lust and desire but one that expressed to the other girl just how much they wanted to be with them.
"I have to go now babe." said Sophie, looking disappointed to have to say it. "I wish I didn't but I promised mum and dad I'd make dinner tonight so I better get a move on."
Sian nodded to express she understood and started making her way towards the door. Before she could reach for the door handle she felt Sophie grab her hand.
"Hey." Said Sophie, pulling the blonde back slightly to face her. "I think I could really fall in love with you too Sian Powers."
Sian felt her stomach do a somersault as she rushed forward, wrapping her arms around her girlfriend and pulling her in close for a hug. She could never remember being so happy.
