Chapter 6
*next morning*
As Sian began to slowly wake up she opened her eyes to see blue orbs gazing back.
"Morning babe" Sophie smiled leaning forward to press her lips to Sian's.
"Morning" came the yawned response "what time is it?"
"way to early!"Sophie yawned
"aww did I tire you out?" Sian teased
"hah you can talk!"
"Mm well, I may be knackered now, but I certainly wasn't last night!"
Sophie burst out laughing. "I could tell!"
"No complaints then" Sian smiled pressing her lips to Sophie's before rolling back over to sleep.
Sophie smiled, slowly closing her eyes.
8.00am Sally knocked cautiously on Sophie's door. She'd had a call from Sunita asking if Sophie could go in slightly earlier today to keep Amber company and needed to wake Sophie up.
"Girls you awake?"
Sian bolted up, realising all too suddenly that they were both completely naked, the room stank and Sophie's mum was just on the other side of the door."Shit , oh fuck Sophie !" she whispered turning to her girlfriend.
"Soph are you up love?"
"Shit! "Sian cursed desperately looking around for something to hide her dignity before twisting again to Sophie to shake her awake.
"Hmm what?" Sophie grumbled eyes barely open
"Soph?" Sally asked cautiously
"Err she's just waking up Sally. We'll be down in a second!" Sian called hoping desperately that Sally would go back downstairs.
"Oh okay" Sally turned to pad away but suddenly decided to come back and twisted the door handle "how did last ni..."
"no don't come in!" Sian squealed, eyes full of fear. She sprinted to behind the door " I'm getting changed!"
"Oh right well. Sorry" she pulled the door back again. "I'll see you downstairs. Rosie and Jason are here so make sure Sophie gets up!" She disappeared off back downstairs.
Sian let out a sigh of relief and turned to face Sophie who had a smirk on her face sat up in bed.
"What? "she frowned "we almost got caught ... Again!"
"Exactleh !" Sophie grinned "ALMOST... but we didn't! Nice outfit by the way"
Sian snapped her eyes downwards, remembering that she was completely naked and squealed covering herself.
"Oh come on. Don't be embarrassed "Sophie laughed "come here!" she pouted
"No! We almost got caught and you were no help what so ever"
Sophie pouted again "please?"
"Nu uh " Sian scowled and turned to find some clean underwear, then chucked Sophie some and pulled hers on.
"I'm sorreh okay! I didn't think!"
"Yeah you didn't think! "She scoffed, flinging Sophie's wardrobe open, and started rifling through her own clothes.
"Why are you being like this?"
Sian ignored her as she closed her eyes. She was incredibly pissed off but she didn't want to shout at her.
"Sian ..." Sophie pressed but she still ignored her so she huffed and raised her voice. "Sian !"
Nothing ... "What have i done wrong? Why are you so annoyed with me ?"
Sian span around "ANNOYED? Sophie i'm fucking fuming... and you want to know why? Because Sophie ...I almost got caught and you did fuck all to help. Your mum is downstairs as we speak with Rosie and Jason EXPECTING you and your dads probably there too. I'm fucking terrified of getting caught as I've got nowhere else to
go and you're sat there au naturale without a flamin' care in the world!" she yelled exasperatedly, tears threatening to form in her eyes as she glared angrily at Sophie.
"whoah whoah , babe!" Sophie shot up off the bed and sprinted towards her girlfriend. She extended her arms and pulled her in wrapping them around her.
"shh , shh" she soothed rubbing her hands up and down Sian's back trying to calm her down.
Sian let out a sigh as her head collided with Sophie's chest.
Once her breathing had slowed they pulled away and she looked up with a tear streaked face."I'm sorry... I just panicked... I didn't know what to do ... and I shouted, I'm so sorry..."
"Hey, hey," Sophie cut her off and reached to place her hands on Sian's cheeks, rubbing away her tears with her thumbs. She stroked her softly, looking into her eyes with a guilt washed face and leant in pressing her lips to the blondes.
"I'm sorry babe" she breathed when they pulled apart.
"So you should be!" Sian chastised fighting to keep a straight face but admitted defeat and let out a sigh. She placed a loving soft kiss to her lips. "I love you Sophie Webster!" she murmured
"I love you too Sian Powers "Sophie beamed.
"We really do need to get changed now though." Sian laughed breaking the moment as she turned back to the wardrobe.
Once they were both dressed Sian walked up to Sophie and softly linked their hands together. She broke out into a smirk seeing the brunette grinning. Sophie always made her smile; she just couldn't stay mad at her for long.
"Thank you so much for last night babe." Sophie smiled" It really was amazing; YOU are amazing."
"You don't need to thank me "Sian chuckled bashfully "anything for my girl ".
Sophie rolled her eyes before pulling them downstairs
"Ah at last!" Sally cried "how did last night go ?" she smiled at Sian
"uh really well thanks " she replied nervously "it was good to spend some time together"
Rosie glanced up at them as they took a seat next to each other at the table.
"Oh would you look at the state of them!" She barked out to Jason quietly, bursting out laughing.
"Have fun last night then eh?" he whispered cheekily receiving a sharp kick and death glare from Sophie in return.
"Alright!" he scowled rubbing his shin.
"What's that?" Sally called
"oh er nuffin" Jason said glancing across.
Sally just shook her head frowning in confusion before turning back to the cooker.
"You two so got it on last night didn't you!" Rosie whispered giggling.
Sian looked up quickly, her face flushing red in embarrassment.
"Shut up!" Sophie glared reaching across to smack Rosie as she glanced across at her mum checking she hadn't heard.
"So you did?" Rosie asked her eyes widening in pure hilarity of the situation. "o.m.g. Sophie Webster ! You little minx!" She laughed punctuating each word.
"It wasn't me!" Sophie huffed keeping her voice low "Sian started it in the cinema!"
Sian snapped her gaze across and glared at her.
"So it was twice?" Jason barked out laughing while Sian continued to glare at Sophie smacking her leg.
"Shut up will you! " She hissed at her, trying to keep her voice low
Sophie pulled a face before looking pointedly at Rosie and Jason
"What me and Sian do is neither of your's business" she hissed getting thoroughly pissed off , not only at the fact Sian was now annoyed with her, again.
"O.M.G look at the dirty great red mark on your neck!" Rosie grinned laughing even harder.
Sally turned round to frown at the laughter before shaking her head and getting on with the cooking.
Sophie shifted uncomfortably and pulled her hair round her neck desperately trying to cover it up, shrinking under Sian's glare.
"How did you avoid getting caught this time eh?" Rosie whispered trying desperately hard not to burst out laughing again.
"Well that was my doing actually ... by the skin of me teeth" Sian hissed
"hah brilliant!" Jason grinned. But thankfully Sally arrived with breakfast breaking the angry tension at the table and replaced it with awkward silence.
"What's up with you lot? Anyone would think you'd been up to somet "Sally laughed suspiciously.
Rosie started grinning "Oh mum if only ..."
Sophie threw a glare at her sister but Sally noticed.
"Ouh if looks could kill!" Sally chuckled. "What's going on between you two?" but she was met with silence. "Oh I don't know ... You don't see each other for weeks and yet you behave like you always do!"
"Sisterly love eh Sally" Sian laughed nervously trying to dispel the tension.
"Hmm...Anyway what did you two get up to last night?"
"We erm just watched some DVD's and then went to bed really".
"The room smells a bit odd" Sally frowned
Sophie choked on a bit of sausage and smacked her chest as she turned to look at Sian with fear in her eyes.
Rosie let out a snigger but disguised it as a cough and pressed her face into Jason's shoulder.
"Oh er ...Sophie's left some food in there. It's gone a bit off" Sian lied blagging off the top of her head.
"Sophie!" Sally chastised "sorry Sian, you should have told me! I'll go upstairs in a moment to go sort it out."
"No mum!" Sophie blurted. Sally looked across alarmed at the sudden shout."I mean...Sian's stuff is all over the floor...She won't want you rifling through it to find it!"
Rosie couldn't believe the hilarity of this situation. Seeing her younger sister trying to blag her way out of getting caught was just too funny so she tried desperately hard to stifle a laugh but admitted defeat and let out a snigger before bursting out laughing completely and placed her head down on the table.
Jason looked across at Sophie alarmed and realised Rosie was going to drop them in it so he decided to step in. "uh sorry ... I uh tickled her leg. Very ticklish this one!" he laughed nervously
Sally frowned not understanding why they were all acting strangely but decided to ignore it.
Eventually the pair left the house letting out a sigh of relief.
"Oh boy am I glad to be out of there!" Sian breathed reaching for Sophie's hand as they walked to the corner shop for the start of Sophie's shift.
"Sorry babe "Sophie mumbled." Not been a great morning really has it "she smiled apologetically
"hmm yeah. We deffo need to brush up on our cover up skills" Sian grinned
"what so... there's gona be more times? I thought you were mad at me?" Sophie asked suddenly feeling very hopeful
"course you silly mare!" Sian grinned. "I love you ... We just. Need to not get ourselves caught that's all oh and be a bit more inventive with our location choice since I'm getting kicked out your room again soon. " she winked as they burst out laughing entering the shop.
Amber looked up "oh here come the terrible duo!" she chuckled. "What's the joke?"
Sophie stopped grinning and rolled her eyes "nuffin!" she said walking into the back to clock in and sort some stuff out.
"What's up with her?" Amber asked furrowing her brow.
"oh nuffin, don't worry bout it" Sian smiled coming to stand in front of Amber and lent on the counter "how was your date with Tommy then ?"
"I wouldn't exactly call it a date. But it was good!" Amber grinned. "Top notch kisser I tell ya!"
Sian rolled her eyes "oh I'm sure... So you goin out with him now then?"
"Duh he's like TOTALLY into me. Written ALL over his face "Amber beamed."I'm thinking of popping over to see him at the garage actually. Can you tell Sophie to mind the shop for me? Ta bye!" she called not giving her time to answer as she ran off.
She frowned at amber's strange personality but laughed it off. She liked Amber, she was...Well different she supposed.
Sophie came back in. "uh. Where's Amber? "
"She went to go see Tommy. Anyway I've gota go n'all ...college" Sian clarified apologetically as Sophie walked behind the counter, stopping in front of her.
"So your leaving me n all?" she huffed
"it won't be for long! You'll be fine!"
"Like always ..." Sophie sighed
"Aww don't be like that." Sian murmured softly, she reached over the counter to peck Sophie on the lips. "I'll see you later okay?"
"hmm, yeah. Bye!" Sophie grumbled.
Sian rolled her eyes and smiled. "Love you"
"Love you too"
The rest of the day was rather uneventful. Amber had managed to persuade Tommy to come hang out in the shop for a bit during his lunch break which pissed Sophie off immensely but she put on the professional act and ignored him. Once he'd left she visibly relaxed.
"Hey soph. Why you so uptight?" Amber asked frowning
"Because my dad hates me, I've got no money and a boring job!"
"Why don't you let your hair down for once then? You just seem I dunno, not very happy."
"Since when did u become an expert in reading people?" Sophie scowled"Uh since my colleague started walking around with a face like a slapped arse, seriously soph, chill out a bit.""It's kind of hard to 'chill out' with everything that's going on AMBER"
"Well go out for a night then!"
"I did last night remember!" She scowled
"Yeah well, don't seem to have done much to ya mood..." Amber huffed admitting defeat
"What?"
But at that moment Sian walked in
"Hey babe" she called out, heading towards her girlfriend
Sophie uttered a quick hey back before going into the back to sort out some more stock.
"What's up with her?"
"Oh she's been like it all day. Stewing Over somet I tell ya."
"hmm" Sian frowned. This was becoming a regular thing these days, being abrupt and not herself. She understood that Sophie was still hurt about James and worried about the money... but it didn't hurt to smile every now and then did it?
"mind if I go in the back for a minute?" Sian asked
"Oh no course not" Amber smiled
"ta" Sian turned to walk into the back and found Sophie leaning against a table with her head in her hands. "Babe what's up?" she tried.
No response.
"Babe ?" Still no response ...Great Sian thought. Bloody ignoring me n all. She Shuffled up to wrap her arms around her from behind in a gesture she knew always calmed her down.
"Don't Sian..."
She froze. "Uh why not?"
"I'm not in the mood"
"Is this about last night?" Sian asked feeling worried.
Sophie let out a sigh and relaxed her shoulders before turning around. "No course not" She wrapped her arms round Sian's neck, leaning up slightly to peck her lips. "I'm just not in the mood right now ok ...Go back home. I'll be no company here I tell ya" She huffed and pulled away walking off back into the shop.
Sian's face dropped into a confused scowl. She couldn't be bothered with an argument so she followed muttering a quick bye to them both as she left.
*later on*
"so then wonderwoman how was your date with Sian last night eh?" Amber grinned
"fine" Sophie replied pursing her lips
"oh give over. It had to be more than fine! Might explain why you look half dead at the moment!"
"uh I do not!" Sophie scowled but seeing the pure grin on amber's face it turned into an unwanted smile.
"You so do! And you so did didn't you!" Amber grinned knowing full well that Sophie knew what she was going on about.
"uh. Not that it's any of your business!" Sophie rolled her eyes as another smile tugged at her lips
"ah classic. Not a denial but not confirming it either...You so did!" she laughed "I've always wondered what it's like with a girl... I don't really get the mechanics of it if you know what I mean "Amber frowned
"uh Amber. Not the conversation I need right now "Sophie scowled feeling rather embarrassed
"hmm well. Later maybe" Amber winked
Sophie raised her eyebrow but turned back to sorting the tins. "Why don't you go annoy tommeh?"
"Oh charmin ! I am don't worry he's taking me to a bar tonight then i gotta try sneak in at some ungodly hour again" She laughed as they both set to work.
*Later on*
Sophie returned to find Sian on the sofa doing college work.
"Hey babe" she called
"Oh your talking to me now? "
"I was earlier wasn't I? " Sophie asked confused
Sian looked across and scoffed. "You practically threw me out the shop! Babe... what's up with you at the moment? You're not yourself..."
"I'm fine! " Sophie cut in
"But you're not though." Sian pressed putting her books down, her gaze softening
"Look I'm tired... my dad hates me and I just want a rest. It's not you, it's me! Please don't keep asking me what's up!" Sophie scowled, storming upstairs to go watch a film before bed knowing full well this was the last night Sian was allowed to sleep in with her before she got kicked back into Rosie's old room. But she needed time to herself for a bit. She didn't know why. But she was so worked up and she knew if she stuck around Sian she would end up shouting at her for no reason. She knew she had the decency to leave her alone for a few hours so she settled down putting a film on.
Sian shook her head in disbelief when she heard Sophie's door slam but decided she didn't want, nor need a row so she left her to it. Her mind wandering to the fact Sophie had used the 'it's not you, it's me' remark. From all the other times she'd heard its use from films and local folk; it was always due to some serious matter, usually resulting in a break up. She knew she was probably being over dramatic but she couldn't stop her stomach knotting together in panic as she tried to think of all the possible reasons for why Sophie was acting so off.
Once it had gone dark, Sian got up from the sofa, bid sally goodnight and padded softly upstairs, pausing facing Sophie's door. She took a deep breath before pushing it open; sighing in relief when she saw Sophie was asleep. The TV was left on the blue screen, the DVD having finished hours ago so she silently crept across the room to turn it off, got undressed, and then turned off the light. She snuggled under the covers and paused for a moment to admire the sight before her. Sophie looked so adorable when she was asleep. No worries, no panic, just blisffuly unaware in her dreams. She was adorable. She snuggled down into her side under the covers and pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead. "I love you Sophie Webster" she murmured falling asleep.
