About an hour after Jacqueline left, Kat and Jane settled down in the bed in the living room. Kat showed up not long after the older women went home. Not wanting to leave Jane alone for the night. They both told Sutton to enjoy her night with her husband since she spent last night with Jane.
Cuddling together under the comforter Jane has her head on Kat's shoulder. Not being able to stay quiet any longer "So Tiny Jane, what happened today with her majesty?" Kat nudges Jane "I've been dying to know."
Not being able to stop laughing at the majesty part, Jane tries to calm herself before responding "We talked, well I sobbed at her about everything I bottled up and was a complete wreck until I passed out on her." Sighing "Not so attractive at all. I felt like a mess honestly. Jacqueline was just so good about it all. She told me I mattered to her more then I probably should but there's just so much we didn't talk about." Jane sighs out pulling her head up fidgeting with her fingers.
Kat takes Jane's fingers in hers. "I'm sure she didn't mind though babe. That woman is mad about you. Watching the two of you interact has always been something magical." Inhaling, bracing for the next words that needs to be said. "What about Ian. I know that's a huge concern of yours."
"You had to ask." sighing in contempt "Ian and Jacqueline have separate bedrooms. Richard was partially right; although she was never in love with Ian. They live together for the boys and she just hasn't had a reason to upheave the way things are. You know the press would be all over them. She didn't want to do that to James and Conner without a good enough reason. She um, also said I was that reason."
"Oh baby, that's like wow." replies a flabbergasted Kat. "What are you going to do?"
"We didn't get there. We kept getting interrupted." Jane runs her hands down her face dramatically.
Hugging Jane "I'm sorry boo."
"Want some wine? I'm getting some wine." Kat nods as Jane shrugs Kat off before getting out of bed, heading into the kitchen. Jane takes out two glasses from the cupboard. Grabbing the wine from the fridge, she then fills the glasses with the wine. Returning to the bed Jane gives Kat her glass. "Here babe."
"Thanks boo." taking a sip from the glass. "Tomorrow is your pre-op isn't it?"
Smiling shyly "Yes. Jacqueline said that she wants to take me." Jane says behind sipping her wine.
Kat nudges her friend and teasingly replies "I see how it is..Jacqueline shows interest and I'm put to the back burner. Love you too Tiny Jane."
Jane shakes her head "You know it's not like that Kat. She was here when I got the call. I almost forgot to tell her I was having the surgery. Which is bad when I'm gonna need all that time off. I was just excited about getting my own vertical that I forgot."
Running her fingers through Jane's hair. "I'm sure she was surprised but understood."
Nodding her head "Yes she does. She knew my struggles of even accepting the gene in the first place." Sighing deeply rubbing her hands down her face. "This is gonna test us isn't it."
Not knowing what else to do besides just holding Jane. "Maybe. You don't know what it's gonna do. But I can tell you this babe. That woman isn't gonna go anywhere. This isn't gonna scare her away. Think of it this way. You both have the time to talk and really get a feel for where this can go. You both still have so much to work through between work and then what she wants to do about Ian. This is a good thing babe."
"I know that, I do. I just want to be with her already though. We haven't even kissed and I know in my heart that I'm hers." Jane shivers as the words leave her lips.
Kat just stares at the wistful look on Jane's face. Lovingly "Damn you got it bad boo." comes out softly. Kissing the top of Jane's head.
On the table next to the bed Jane's phone goes off, notifying her of an incoming text. Curious who would be texting at this hour - Sutton was occupied with her husband - Jacqueline was supposed to be chilling with her son's and Kat well was right here with her - grabbing the phone she sees it Ryan. Sighing loudly Jane shows Kat her screen. Jane, can we talk? I can take you to your appointment in the morning if you would like me to.
"Who does he think he is? He cheated and you broke up with him. Why would you want him to take you?" Kat irritatingly says.
Jane just shakes her head. She has nothing more to say to pinstripe. He's the one that lied. He's the one that cheated. He's the one that deliberately kept the whole truth when she asked him point blank what happened.
She might not have been in love with Ryan and was pining for her boss, but she was still faithful. She was still with him and cared for him on some level. He did give Jane her first orgasm.
"Babe, you good?" Kat shakes Jane from her thoughts. " Are you going to reply back to him?"
Jane sighs out "Should I?" Staring at the message debating on answering or not.
The phone beeps again, this time with a text from Jacqueline. Smiling seeing the name as she clicks the text. I miss you. I didn't know if I should call or text but I wanted you to know that darling.
"That's got to be Jacqueline from that smile"
Jane nods showing Kat the message. "Aww" Kat coos.
I miss you too. You could have called. I'm just sitting here with Kat. Debating on if I should text Ryan back. Jane texts back.
A few seconds later Jane phones rings with Jacqueline calling. Answering the phone.
"Hey" and " Ryan texted you?" Is said at the same time.
Kat laughs hearing Jacqueline's inquiry over the line, smirking at Jane. Jane smacks Kat with the pillow.
"Straight to the point. Yes he texted asking to talk and also if I wanted him to take me in the morning." Jane nervously tells the other woman.
Hearing the nerves in Jane's voice Jacqueline sighs. "Darling I'm not mad. Why haven't you replied back to him yet? Maybe that will help him get the message?" She laughs out. "Sorry. Just tell him you have nothing to say to him and he is definitely not needed in the morning."
"No he is not. And I can't wait to see you in the morning." Jane softly replies.
"Ditto Jane." Is softly returned. " I'm sorry I disturbed your evening, truthfully I wanted to hear your voice. " Jacqueline bashfully let's slip.
Jane swears she can hear the blush from over the phone. "You didn't, baby." Jane glares at Kat, snickering and making smoochie noises in the background. "I should probably get some sleep though before my appointment in the morning. I will see you in the morning Jacq."
"Good Night Darling." Jacqueline hums lovingly.
"Night Jacq."
"You two are sickeningly cute - and have it so bad for each other it's nauseating." Kat says when Jane hangs up the phone.
"Shut up, like it was any better when you were falling in love with Adena when you first met her." Jane tosses the other pillow at Kat before getting up heading to her room.
"I was not that bad!" Scoffs Kat following Jane to her room.
"Oh you were worse. Do you not remember when Adena was held at customs for trying to sneak contraband dildos into her country? That you helped her pack! Or when she was sent back home after coming here for you from Paris and you spent the entire time with her at the airport til she was deported then shortly after you jumped on the plane to follow her!" Jane laughs out.
Kat just smiles as she sits on the edge of Jane's bed - remembering her time with Adnea at the airport. Talk about a first date for the books. "Okay point made." She laughs. "I just felt such a connection with her from that first meeting. She saw me. She still sees me." Sighing deeply "I want Adena back."
"Oh Kat" Jane joins Kat wrapping her arms around her friend. "You both look at each other with so much love and admiration still. You just need to tell her how you feel. I believe Adena loves you still too Kat. It wasn't wrong when you chose you over both Tia and Adena before. It was a good choice babe. You had to grow and learn exactly what you wanted when it comes to who you want to be with. Adena is forever for you. Sutton and I both saw that from the beginning. Adena still makes you nervous when she's around." Jane kisses the top of Kat's head.
" She does. I can't think straight." giggles "No pun intended. She's dating someone again though. How can I be the person to break up her relationship again when I gave her up when she told me she wanted me back." Kat sighs out in frustration.
"She understands why you did that though. And you both went on with your life's, and here you both are. You're drawn to each other like a spark to a flame. Just talk to her Kat. It's her choice who she truly wants."
"Thanks babe. I love you."
"I love you too."
As Jane is changing into her pajamas, Kat makes sure everything is turned off in the living. She sends a text to Adena asking her if they can hang out again tomorrow. Before plugging her phone in and setting it on her nightstand.
Back in Jane's room "Are you gonna answer Ryan back?" Kat asks Jane sitting back on the bed.
Sighing "I guess I should."
What is it you're wanting to talk about? I have nothing more to say to you. It's over Ryan. And you were never taking me to my appointment, so no I don't need you to. Goodbye Ryan. Hitting send, having nothing else to say.
"There sent." Showing Kat the text.
Laughing "Hopefully he gets it."
"Right?!" Jane sighs, shaking her head. " Are you sleeping here or out there tonight?"
"Can I sleep here?" Kat bashes her eyelashes.
Nudging Kat in the shoulder. "Yes you can sleep here. Jacqueline is coming to get me around nine am."
" Okay. Why don't you text her to come over earlier to have breakfast before she takes you. We can have Richard and Sutton over for breakfast too." Kat suggests.
Nodding her head in confirmation before texting Sutton the plans. Followed by a quick change of plans text to Jacqueline. Kat suggested you have breakfast with us before my appointment in the morning if you're okay with that. Sutton and Richard will be here too.
Sure darling sounds good. What time then? Eight? Jane shows Kat. "Sounds good." Kat says.
Yes that works. She sends back.
Sutton's message comes in as Jane sends Jacqueline another message. Is it bad we haven't even kissed and all I want is to be cuddled next to you right now. Kat is an okay substitute but I prefer your arms.
Opening Sutton's text. Sounds good we'll be there around 8 babe.
"Sutton says they'll be her around 8. So we should get up around 7 then.
" Sounds good." Kat responds before getting under the covers.
Another text comes in. I was thinking something along those lines earlier. I don't have a substitute though, so Kat is lucky, but remind her you are mine. Followed by another text. I mean it should be me.
Not being able to stop the blushing, she shows Kat her screen. "Aww" Kat coos.
She's aware. And I like the thought of being yours! Btw and yes it should be YOU. Jane replies back with pure honesty.
Good night and sweet dreams darling I'll see you in the morning.
Ditto babe. Is all she replies before plugging her phone in after setting her alarm.
Getting under the covers herself "Night Kat."
"Night Tiny Jane."
