The journey home was quiet, Tilly was afraid to talk out of fear that Jen might have bottled it and wanted to end it… again! Jen glanced over at Tilly "whats up, your awful quiet its not like you" Jen smiled and put her hand on Tillys leg. "nothing, just wanted to enjoy the silence, you not usually this quiet either!" Jen smiled, "I know im just still a little taken back by what happened at the restaurant, neil knew i was into girls somehow, is it like a topic of conversation at college or something?" Jen laughed and Tilly kind of went quiet and Jen knew right away they had been "yous do don't you?, did you tell them?" Jen was laughing, she obviously didn't care who knew it wasn't a big deal but she was curious to see how they found out "no I swear it wasn't me Sinead let it slip a few weeks ago with you being a family friend, her mum told her because apparently Diane didn't have a problem with it but Sinead being highly dramatic she thinks your always giving her 'the eyes'" Jen looked at Tilly "are you being serious or are you winding me up?" Tilly nodded her head "im serious, shes full of herself though so I didn't believe her" Jen smiled "you shouldn't believe her, plus if she didn't want me looking at her she should at least wear a t-shirt about the house" Jen smiled and bit her tongue to stop her for laughing "JEN!, what the fuck when was this?, why wasn't she wearing a t-shirt?" Tilly was now feeling slightly jealous, Jen just laughed " chill out Tilly!, it was ages ago when I had first moved in she was looking Diane to iron one of her t-shirts and she came down stairs without it on her, I had to look away it was slightly awkward. But don't worry I didn't like what I saw so your safe!" Jen leant over and kissed Tilly.
"Okay were home now, so are you coming to mine or are you heading home?" Jen let Tilly decide, they had arrived back early and Tilly still had plenty of time before she had to be home. "em il come to yours for a while if you don't mind" Jen smiled "of course I don't mind" Jen kissed Tilly and they heading into Jens flat.
Liam was nowhere to be seen, he must have been out and it couldn't have been at a better time "well, look at this, we are all alone" Jen turned round and grabbed Tilly by the waist. "so what is it movie and a quiet drink" Jen raised her eyebrows "really? That's what you want to do when we have the place to ourselves" Jen pulled Tilly closer and kissed her. It wasn't a quick kiss it was long, lingering. "So what film are we for watching?" Jen wasn't going to force Tilly into anything she didn't want. Jen let go of Tilly and walked towards the living room. "wait your going to kiss me and then just leave it?, no way I cant let you do that" Tilly walked over to Jen and put her arm around her, she kissed Jens neck "I knew you would change your mind" Jen smiled and grabbed Tillys hand "lets make the most of this while we can" and with that both women disappeared into the bedroom.
It had been just over an hour and both women were lying in bed. They were never usually alone in Jens flat, Liam was usually about so moments like this are a luxury when they get to happen. "it's awful quiet in here tonight" Jen laughed and looked over at Tilly "It wasn't awful quiet 5 minutes ago was it" Both women erupted into laughter, "not what I meant!, Liam is usually playing his music loud to stop himself from hearing us, don't get me wrong this… this is amazing having the flat all to ourselves, being able to lie here not a care in the world" Jen kissed Tilly, she was right there wasn't many moments like this which is why London next weekend was an absolute god send "just think, next weekend we can do this all… over… again…"Tilly smiled and kissed Jen "can't wait, it's going to be amazing, as always!" Tilly looked at her phone " crap I better get going ive like 3 missed calls and 5 texts all from my mum" Jen grabbed her and pulled her down, calm down text her saying you'll be home in 10 minutes, lie here with me for a bit, enjoy the moment" Tilly couldn't resist, those eyes, she couldn't say no " okay but I have to be out of here in 5 it takes 5 minutes to get home". Jen smiled Tilly was right this was perfect, every moment with her was, it just takes a person to step back and take a long hard look to really appreciate what you have. Jen was lost in a deep trance, Tilly noticed this and decided to snap her out of it "Jen, where have you gotten to? You look lost!" Jen shook her head "sorry just deep in thought" Tilly curled up to Jen and placed her head on Jens chest, she could hear Jens heart beating, it was louder than usual. "care to share your little thoughts?" Jen smiled "I was thinking about you, well us and how lucky I am to have you" Tilly looked up at Jen, she had the biggest smile ever plastered across her pale face "well that's nice to know I feel the exact same way" Tilly kissed Jen, it was full of passion and love. "its just a shame I have to leave now" Jen frowned, "aw no way! It hasn't been 5 minutes already has it?" Tilly sat up in the bed holding the covers up until she grabbed her top of the lamp on the bedside table "id love to stay but we both have to go to college in the morning, plus I need to grab a shower before I go to bed" Jen smiled, the thought of Tilly in the shower drove her insane, it was little things like this that reminded Jen that she was falling for this girl a little more every day. Tilly looked at Jen who was lying in bed with a smile spread across her face "you look rather pleased with yourself" Jen laughed "with a girlfriend as amazing as you I should be pleased" Jen got up and grabbed Tilly's waste pulling her down on the bed again. "what are you playing at I have to be home soon, I cant stay here much longer" Jen had a sad look on her face "I know you can I just wanted a quick cuddle" Tilly nodded "okay but you have to at least put a t-shirt on cause if I lay down to cuddle you and your only wearing your underwear I cant be held responsible for what happens" Jen laughed "just come lie with me 2 more minutes please il even get dressed and drive you home, please?" Tilly couldn't resist "okay but no funny business, you have a one track mind and we both know how easily led I am!" Jen nodded in agreement.
Just as they were lying back down the front door slammed shut "Jen are you about?" Jen closed her eyes and threw her head back slightly resenting Liam for ruining a really good night "Yes Liam im in my room" Jen kissed Tilly and they both got up and started to get dressed. Just as Jen grabbed a t-shirt to put on Liam burst through her bedroom door "good news, Ive just got myself a flat" not realising that he was walking in on something he looked up and Jen was standing staring at him, eyes wide with that deep evil look that makes you feel that the person is string deep into your soul "Liam, get out, do you no know how to knock!" Jen was furious, its not exactly something you want your brother seeing, you and your girlfriend half naked in your room " shit!, sorry Jen I didn't know you had company" Jen shook her head " Just get out Liam, we will talk about this later!" Jen was furious, she always told him to knock if he was coming into her room, granted those past times Tilly hadn't been in her room but that was still no excuse.
Liam turned and headed out of the room, closing the door behind him. Jen walked over to where Tilly was standing and she put her arms over Tillys shoulder "look Tilly im so sorry, he should have knocked…" Jen trailed off and all Tilly could do was burst into laughter. Jen was dumbstruck, why was she laughing? "Whats wrong why are you laughing?" Tilly composed herself and holding back laughter she began to talk " its ok Jen theres no need to apologize to me, I think its Liam you need to apologize to" Jen lookd at Tilly as if to say what are you talking about? "why do I need to apologize to him he just came walking in lie he bloody owned the place!" Tilly laughed again "you don't get It do you, if I were him I would be mortified. He just saw his sister half naked, in a room, with another girl. I think id be looking to gouge my eyes out with spoons if Im perfectly honest" Jen closed her eyes and covered her face with her hand "god your right" Tilly laughed again "Tilly its really not funny I have to live with him!" Tilly shook her head "if you had have been listening to him instead of having a staring competition with him you'd have heard him speak, he's moving out, something about a flat of his own!"
Tilly hugged Jen "it's ok, you only have to spend a few more days living together, a wee tops, you'll be fine. Look I can walk home from here, talk to him, im sure it will all be fine" Tilly kissed Jen one last time and left. Jen appeared a few minutes later, to find Liam in the kitchen with a bottle of champagne and two glasses "oh so you've finally appeared, I expected you to come out when Tilly was leaving, but you've just hid in your room for 15 minutes" Jen shook her head "look Liam about that…" Liam interrupted her mid sentence "Look I don't wanna talk about it, its kinda disturbing and id rather not discuss with my sister about how I saw her half naked in a room with a girl, its ok il knock next time if its any more convenient!, you won't have to deal with it much longer just signed a lease on the flat across town so il be moving there, everything should be sorted and il be moving out next weekend" Jen smiled and nodded her head "good for you, hope you keep it cleaner than you kept here!" "its going to have to be or the other tenant won't be too happy!" Jen looked surprised, "new lady friend?" Liam shook his head "nope moving in with rob, barney and the guys, they're gonna be here for another year or so they were looking somewhere to rent but didn't have enough to make up the rent so I said id join them and ay the last part of the rent" Jen was slightly impressed, Liam hadn't been in the village long but yet he had made friends and created a new life for himself. "so would you like some champagne?" Jen nodded "yeah go on then, you open that and il go grab something from the take-a-way, im a little hungry." Liam whistled and shook a bag in the air "beat you to it" Jen smiled " you little gem! Aw im going to miss this, nights in with you, take-a-way and a drink or two." Liam laughed "its not like im going to be a million miles away im a 10 minute drive away" I know its just going to be strange now seeing you free load about here!" Liam laughed but it was more of a 'ha your funny aren't you' kind of laugh "well at least you will have the house to yourself, no one walking in on you, less washing to do, and look you've a free room you sure you don't want Tilly to move in?" Jen kicked Liam on the leg "your funny aren't you, il know about the washing I only had to do two washes a week before you came here! And as for tilly moving in, its early days yet Liam, shes still young I don't want to pressure her into moving away from home, I know she only lives around the corner but its working fine as it is for now so for now I think we will keep it how it is then maybe a year or so if were still together I might consider it."Liam seemed happy with this answer, he was happy because Jen never really opened up to him, or anyone for that matter, they were getting closer, and Liam was happy to see it, they had never been that close before, like ever but maybe it took those few weeks of living together was what it took to bring them together.
