A single stream of November sun lay across the room. Connie shifted in her sleep, her arm falling onto Rita as she moved. Rita's eyes peeled open her breath caught in her throat the faint memory of the night before. She kissed her and Connie kissed her back. Rita closed her eyes again, imaging the sea, the waves lapping at her toes. The single smile that she now had come to realise she was hopelessly in love with.
Connie began to wake, Rita quickly turned onto her side to face the wall. This was embarrassing, what if now Connie told her I was a mistake that it meant nothing. What if it had ruined everything they had? Rita pretended she was sleeping but in reality her mind was racing her thoughts refusing to leave. She began to worry. A tear slipped down her cheek. Connie propped herself up. Looked over at Rita, her skin catching the light. Connie reached out a finger and wiped away the tear. Placing a kiss on the side of Rita's head.
Rita's body relaxed, she rolled over. Connie was above her. The little grin on her face calmed her. Connie lent down kissing the blondes lips. Rita smiled into the kiss. So it was real then. Her lips were soft the kiss oh so gentle. Rita lifted a hand pressing her finger tips to Connie's cheek. Connie moved a stray piece of hair from Rita's forehead before kissing the space that remained.
Connie swung her legs out of the bed and used the dressing table to pull herself up. She caught sight of herself in the mirror. Her hair had become matted a little at the back and on the left side, her eye makeup had smudged a little.
"Connie you look beautiful." A voice said from the bed. "You always look beautiful, even when you are rocking the panda look."
"And you pixie are too cute for your own good." Connie sat back down and Rita sat up to be closer to her. Connie cupped her face, pushing her hair behind her ear. Running her finger along Rita's cheek bone. Pulling her closer, their lips touching slightly. Their eyes meeting for a second and then their worlds crashed into one as their lips joined fully. Rita fell backwards onto the bed Connie moving with her. Connie pulled away, pushing herself back up to a sitting position.
"We better get dressed before mum and dad get home from work."
"Okay, do you know where I put my bag?"
"It's over by the window I think."
Rita climbed past Connie and spotted her bag. "I'll be back in a minute."
Rita took her stuff and went to the bathroom. She sat down on the edge of the bath. As if all that had just happened, Connie had kissed her again, and again and again. Was this real? She pinched herself. Yep very real. She was in love with Connie Beauchamp.
Connie lay back on her bed. She scrunched her eyes closed. The images of Rita smiling flashed through her mind. Maybe this why how they were meant to turn out. This was what they were destined to become. Not just best friends but lovers too. She always remembered her granddad telling her when she was younger, 'never fight the things you feel, whoever you fall in love with will always be your best friend' and that rang true.
Rita knocked on the door, Connie was drawn from her thoughts. "Can I come in?"
"Yes of course." Rita walked into the room and placed her bag back down on the floor before throwing herself down onto the bed next to Connie.
"So what are we doing today?"
"Well not a lot! I can't walk properly for 6 weeks remember."
"Well how could I forget I think I broke my toe on that thing let night?"
"Oh Rita are you okay?"
"Con chill ill live."
Connie pulled Rita into a hug, the blonde pressed her head against connives chest. She was warm, safe and for the first time in years well and truly happy.
"Mum text a few minutes ago she wants me home by 5pm for dinner."
"Alright then well mum or dad will drop you home. But in the mean time we have 3 hours to waste so what do you want to do?"
"I'll happily just lie next to you. That would be perfect."
"Well that's what we will do then. Connie shuffled back on the bed. And Rita crawled next to her. Rites head hit the pillow, the warmth of Connie's breath tickled her cheek. Rita looked towards Connie. A smile pulling at her lip. Never did she ever imagine shed be here right now. Shed fallen so hard and this was it. Connie pecked Rita's nose. Connie pulled Rita in closer wrapping her arm around her. Connie could feel Rita's heart racing. Butterflies flutter in her stomach every time she laid eyes on Rita she wanted for nothing more than to kiss her. To kiss her until the light of the next day. It was just them. They were one. Her best friend, her first and only love. She glanced down Rita's eyes were shut her breathing slow and steady. She really was the most beautiful thing shed ever had the pleasure to lay her eyes upon. She kissed her forehead.
"Rita freeman, I don't think you will quite ever understand just how much meeting you has changed my life. You make me laugh, you make me cry and most of all you complete me. I'm totally in love with you. I tried to stop myself falling but I just fell harder and faster until before I knew it I was lying here next to you. And that is exactly where I want to stay. I'm in love with you."
Rita opened her eyes she looked intently into Connie's eyes.
"I'm in love with you too Constance Beauchamp."
Connie's cheeks flushed pink. "Y...ou you weren't mean to hear that."
"Yeah I kind of guessed that bit." Rita lifted her head and kissed Connie, their lips lingered, before kissing again.
"Oh and if you ever call me Constance again there will be trouble."
"Ooo scary."
Rita looked at her phone she had to be home in 10 minutes.
"Connie we should get going, I just need to get my things."
They both got up and Rita picked up her bag. Connie closed her arms around Rita pulling the other girl close, Rita tilted her head back and stood on her tip toes. Kissing Connie one last time.
"I'm going to miss you."
"I'm going to miss you too, but come on you can't be late home."
They made it downstairs and into the car. They drove home in pretty much silence. They finally pulled up outside Rita's house. She gave Connie's hand a gentle squeeze before opening the car door. Saying her thank you to Connie parents. She shut the door behind her she'd see Connie on Monday now. The weekend was going to drag she could feel it. She got to the front door and turned back to wave. The air around getting felt heavy now. Monday was only a few days away though.
