Ch. 14
Hey guys I'm so sorry I didn't get this uploaded sooner but this is my last year at school and I need to stay focus on getting my degree. I have been chipping away at the coming chapters as well. Also I will upload when I can so I'm hoping that I get some free time. All mistakes are mine.
"Lena are you home it's Stef!" Stef banged on the door. Maybe showing up at 7am wasn't the best idea but Stef needed to get this off her chest. She waited a minute or two till she decided that Lena wasn't home. Till a voice spun her around.
"Hey sorry I was in the shower, as you can see." Lena said as she pointed to her wet hair. "So what's up your text seemed pretty important." Lena held the door open for Stef to come in.
Sitting on the couch Stef is ready, well she thinks she is. Having trouble sleeping Stef thought that waking at 5am was a great idea to start practicing for what she needed to tell Lena. But looking now at Lena with her chocolate eyes making Stef think that this wasn't the greatest idea.
"I was going to do something big like come to your apartment before you got home and ask you, but I didn't have a key. So I decided that this was going to have to do because there is nothing I want more to take you out on a date Lena Adams. That is if you want to?" Stef held her breath till she heard the one word that make her heart leap.
"Yes." Lena dropped on the couch beside Stef and kissed her. This being the second time that they have kissed and Lena will never forget the taste of Stef's Chap Stick. "So when is it?" Lena asked as they came up for air.
"Um it's just I was wondering if you want to go out on a date with me this Saturday?" Stef rubbed her hands on her pants waiting for Lena's answer.
"Yes of course!" Lena grabbed Stef's hands and kissed Stef's knuckles.
"Ok good. We are still good for my doctor's on this coming Monday right?"
"Yes! Wait you said Monday?"
"Yeah. Remember when I asked if you had any test or anything thing that needed your attention after school and you said no. That's why I asked you."
"Well it's just I have something planned from Friday to Monday so I'm not going to make it. I'm sorry Stef." Stef wanted to ask what was going on but form the sound of Lena's voice it was evident that she didn't want to talk anymore.
"So I'm going to be going now. See you Saturday Lena." Getting up from the couch Stef makes her way to door.
"Yeah see you too." Lena said with a massive smile on her face. Once the door was shut Lena grabbed her phone and text Jenna to meet her in the D café at lunch.
Jenna took her packed apple out of her backpack on sat across from Lena in the 4 person table. "Hey how did your class go? Was Strum in her mood again?"
"Her hair was straight. The worst thing is that there was a couple in the back making out while she was talking. She literally stopped the class and was all like 'I'm sorry is my lesson making it hard for you guys to make a baby in the back of my classroom?' Everyone just stopped and looked back to see who she was talking to. Monica and I were talking and we are pretty sure it that Daylynn chick and her boyfriend. But everything else was boring."
"That seems like a great class. So what was your message about?" Jenna grabbed Lena's end bits of her sub.
"Stop I like those. Oh! So I wanted to tell you that Stef asked me on a date. And before you can ask I said yes." Jenna jumped from her seat across from Lena to hug her.
"So how did she do it? Was it romantic? Oh! I also have news!"
"Well she came to my apartment this morning at 7am. I was reading my books it was sweet and I loved it. Despite the fact that I just got out of the shower and it was still amazing, because I would say yes a million times over." Lena swiped the end piece of her sub from Jenna's hand and popped it in her mouth.
"Ok so on to more important news. Kelly asked me to finally move in! At first I was like I already live there and she was like yeah but you don't have a key, so here's a key. We ate at the best vegan restaurant, which you and Stef have to try out. After we left the restaurant and made it back to the apartment I used my new key and we mphhh."
"Ok Jenna that's enough." Lena covered Jenna's mouth before anything dirty and unneeded came out of her mouth.
Licking her hand Jenna was able to get Lena's hand off her mouth. "Eww!" Lena wiped her hand on the napkin.
"Well that's what you get when put your hand on my mouth." Jenna stuck her tongue out at Lena. "So where is Stef taking you?"
"Um I actually don't know."
"Ok so what time is she picking you up?"
"Um I don't know that either."
"So you don't know anything about this date only that you're going on a date. Text her and ask her about the time."
Before Lena could get her phone she felt a hand on her shoulder. Looking up was the blonde that was on her mind. "Hey."
"So this is Stef?" Jenna got up from her seat beside Lena and made sure that Stef took the seat beside Lena. "And who is this?"
"This is Beth. My best friend. And you are?" Stef stated.
"Oh I'm Jenna Lean's best friend. I know so much about you Stef. So don't mess with Lena." Jenna whispered the last part, making sure that Stef understood her. Stef sat down beside Lena while Beth was seated beside Jenna and across from Stef.
"Stef its ok, her bark is worse than her bite. Trust me. Hello again Beth." Lena smiled as she felt Stef's knee knock against hers.
"So Stef what are you doing on Saturday?" Jenna asked as Lena kicked her leg under the table.
"Well I have this date with an amazing women."
"Does this women have a name and where are you taking her?"
"Yes this women has a name it would be a shame if her parents just called her Women. She has the most beautiful name. It matches her insides and outsides. Also it's a surprise, and I hope she loves it." Stef looked over a Lena and locked her pinky with Lena's.
"Yeah. Well she must be some lucky women to have you take her on a date." Lena said locking her eyes with Stef's. She couldn't help but smile at this girl.
"So before these two start making out, Stef we should go. Come on. You will see her in 2 days. I'm hungry and you have gym class." Beth said as she grabbed Stef arm. "Well it was nice meeting Jen. And great to see you again Lena. Say bye Stef."
"Bye Jenna! See you soon Lena." Stef added wink and sending it to Lena.
"Stef come out! I need to see you so I can judge you and tell you what you look great in come on!" Beth yelled as she knocked on Stef's door.
"Hold on I want to narrow them down." Beth sat on the ground with her back against the door. "Ok I think I got it down." Beth stood up just in time to see the door open.
"Whoa!" Stef walked out in black flats, jeans, and a white flowy top. "You are going to knock her out tonight."
"Thanks Beth. Alright I have to go pick up Lena."
'Remember to use protection. I don't want to be an aunt yet." Stef lightly shoved Beth's shoulder.
"We aren't having sex on the first date Beth! Goodbye!" Stef walked out the door and drove off to pick up Lena.
"Jenna help me please! I don't know what to wear." Lena throw another outfit on her bed, while Jenna was in her closet throwing clothes at Lena.
"How about this one?" Jenna asked, pulling out a flower print dress. Lena shook her head. "Lena you over a thousand combinations of outfits. You can't say no to everything." Walking over to the bed Jenna found what she thought was the best outfit and wasn't going to take no for an answer. "This is what you are wearing and you will wear it."
"Fine. But you have to leave my bedroom." Lena grabbed the outfit from Jenna's hand, signaling for her to leave.
Walking out 20 minutes later, Lena was walking out of her room. Her hair up, dressed in a dark jeans with a turquoise t-shirt, overlaid with a short black jacket and the sleeves rolled up. "I knew you would look hot in that outfit. Stef is going to love it." Jenna got up from the couch to grab Lena's black high heels.
"Ok Stef is going to be here in 20 minutes. So you need to leave." Lena said as she walked towards to the door.
"No I want to talk a photo of your first date with Stef. Please!" Lena couldn't help but laugh at Jenna's antics.
"No you need to go. I promise I will take a photo to show you." Lena opened the door and shooed Jenna out. "Goodbye Jenna."
Lena started clean up her apartment and her bed up. Hanging up her clothes in the closet. Finally having everything back in its spot Lena moved into the living room and plopped on the couch. Looking at her watch for the 10th time in a span of 5 minutes. "Ugh. I need to something to keep my mind busy." Grabbing her early educator textbook, Lena started to flip through the pages to reread the chapter.
A knock at the door pulled her out of her reading even though she only read one sentence. Opening the door Lena was star stuck. "Whoa. You look amazing." Seeing Stef in a pink and blue flannel t-shirt, with a white t-shirt underneath it. Paired with blue jeans that hugs her curves perfectly. She has her brown leather jacket draped over her. Seeing her hair curling perfectly around her face
"Wow yourself." Stef took in all of Lena's glory. She looked amazing and legs look liked they went on forever and Stef couldn't believe her eyes when they moved up to her chest. The t-shirt allowed for the correct amount of cleavage and paired with the black jacket that made the shirt pop out even more. 'This must be what a goodness look it.' Stef saw that it was
"Uh…Stef I don't mind looking at you all night but you did promise that food was going to be involved in this date." Stef looked up to meet Lena's eye and saw the wink that she sent her.
"Yes, yes you are right. Alright let's get this date started." Stef reached out for Lena's hand and felt the spark and the butterflies in her core. "Lena Adams are you ready for the best night of your life?" With a smirk on her face.
Once outside Stef helped Lena into the passenger side. "You are such a gentlewomen." Lena said once Stef got into the driver side.
"That's what many have called me." Stef said with a cheeky smile. Lena couldn't do anything but laugh and shake her head.
Entering the café, Stef was excited and yet nervous. They had talked as friends and sometimes the level just above friends. She was nervous that they won't have anything to talk about or that the food would be bad or that Lena won't like the place or that everything that could go wrong would go wrong. All those thoughts disappeared as Lena held her hand. With Lena's physical contact it made it easier for Stef brain to stop and slow down.
They found a seat at a table for two. Once the waitress took their order the conversation was flowing like they have been friends for years.
"Lena, you look amazing tonight." Lena turned her down to try and hide her blush.
"Thank you. You are looking stunning as well tonight Stef." Stef took Lena's hand and kissed the back of it. "So where are we off to next?"
"Well I guess that's what makes a surprise a surprise." Stef and Lena walked out of the café hand-in-hand. Walking to the car Stef reached back into the trunk and grabbed the blanket. They walked hand-in-hand across the road to Cinema under the Stars. Stef looked over to see Lena's face to judge whether or not she liked it. "I can go in and cancel our sits and we can go do something else."
"Stef I this! Gretchen and I have drove passed this place. Just because her parents has money means that she liked more fancier and expensive things. This Stef is amazing and company isn't bad either." Lena said with a wink and nudge in Stef directions.
"Alright let's go in and get ready to watch the greatest movie of your life." Stef curled her fingers around Lena's and knew this was what she wants to be doing for the rest of the days, months, and years to come.
"I was right wasn't I? This was the best movie that you will ever see. There is no way that the Princess Bride isn't the best. It has everything, action, comedy, drama, suspense, and it's a fairy tale."
"It was ok. I mean that it was a good movie just not one of my favourites. How about next time we see a movie I get to pick movie."
"Already thinking about a second date." Stef bumped her shoulder against Lena with a massive smile on her face. Walking back to the car was quiet but it was a good quiet. Both Lena and Stef took quick glances at each other.
Their evening was coming to an end and Stef wanted it to go on forever. She wanted to have Lena come back to her place for coffee or for a midnight snack. All Stef wanted was to have Lena by herself for the whole day.
Lena had the same thought. She had the greatest time and it sucks that it's coming to an end. She doesn't want it to but she knows that both Stef and her have to get back to their homes but also to their studies. Lena looked out the window to see that they are stopping in front of her apartment complex. Stef holds the door open for Lena to complete the woohing experience. The girls walked into Lena's apartments lobby.
"This was amazing Stef! I could not ask for a better first date with an amazing person." Lena took Stef's hand into hers. Running her hands up and down Stef's forearms slowly moving up to her biceps. Stef walked into Lena's embrace. Their noses touching with a barely an inch between their lips. Leaning in that extra inch their lips meet for the second time and it was just as great as their first time. Lena's hand moving up to Stef's cheek and Stef's hand moving up into Lena's hair.
Hearing the ding of the elevator is what stopped them from moving this make out session up to Lena's apartment. "Um good night Stefanie, that's my ride. I had a wonderful time!"
"Good night Lena. I also had a wonderful time tonight. I hope that we have many more." Stef added a wink as she stumbled out of the building. All Lena could do is smile until her face hurt the next morning.
