Delia cautiously climbed out of the taxi, picked up her luggage, paid and thanked the driver. Lifting the two heavy suitcases her mam had insisted on her bringing and her box of books, she made for the front door of Nonnatus House. Delia was petrified. The thought of living so close to Patsy was wonderful, but Delia couldn't help but panic about being caught out. Delia knew she wouldn't be able to always control herself emotionally and physically around Patsy, and she wasn't sure Patsy would be able to either. With one final anxiety ridden step, Delia reached the front door. She'd been to Nonnatus House plenty of times before but this was completely different, this time Delia would be entering her new home. Delia waited one second more before wrapped upon the door, a few short moments later and Sister Mary-Cynthia had pulled open the door and ushered Delia in.
Delia stood awkwardly waiting for some direction as of where to go. Almost sensing Delia's panic Sister Mary-Cynthia offered some reassurance "I'm afraid Nurse Mount was called out early this morning, she should be back sometime soon…If you follow me I'll take you to get settled in." Delia smiled and placed one of the large suitcases down in the hallway to collect later. Delia had always liked Cynthia, and she was glad it was her that was there to welcome her in Patsy's absence.
Just as the conversation between Delia and Sister Mary-Cynthia began to flow more naturally, the door of Nonnatus House clicked open and someone returned home. Delia stood wishing for the sound of the footsteps to be Patsy's. The door to Delia's room flung open and Patsy stood in the door way. Delia felt her cheeks burned as she gazed into Patsy's eyes, her mouth twisted into a grin and she managed to push out the words "Hello Pats…" Patsy's stood and stared for a few seconds more before registering what Delia had said and the company that they had in the room "Oh..I saw your stuff in the hallway, I thought you might need some help settling in." Patsy flushed as she glanced up and down Delia and then looked past her to Sister Mary-Cynthia. Sister Mary-Cynthia smiled and then made her excuse to exit.
Finally alone Delia flung her arms around Patsy and covered her face with lots of tiny kisses, Patsy smirked and pulled Delia in close. Delia couldn't believe it, she was finally here with her sweetheart. Delia moved the clutter that was covering her bed and sat down indicating for Patsy to do the same. Once Patsy was perched next to her Delia made her move. She slid her hand up Patsy's arm and round the back of her neck and pulled her closer, leaning in she began to place kisses upon Patsy's neck. Patsy let out a small moan which sent shivers down Delia's spine, it had been ages since she had heard her lover call out like that. Patsy pushed Delia away and jokingly gave her a chastising look, "Nurse Busby! Control yourself, what if someone were to walk in? You can't go making me feel like that to not finish…" Patsy trailed off as if realising what she had just admitted. Delia smiled and slid her hand just up and under the hem of Patsy's dress, watching Patsy shiver Delia replied "Well Nurse Mount, you'll just have to hold on until later then" and winked at her. Rising off the bed Delia heard Patsy sigh and felt a prang of pride at her ability to turn Patsy on. Leaning against the chest of draws in the corner of her room she turned to face Patsy, "Come on then! I thought you were helping me pack away..?" Patsy grinned and stood up to begin the task ahead of them.
