It had been nearly a week since Tilly and Jen had bumped into each other in the hallway and every time that Tilly saw her she looked flustered and worried recently she had been spending time out of school, Mr Keeler had said that 'she needed to find herself', this made Tilly almost sure that her sudden illness was to do with her confession about Tilly. She was feeling content knowing that Jen felt the same way but she couldn't help but wonder what Jen was thinking about on her 'sick' days, coming to the conclusion to leave her placement or just blanking Tilly day to day.
…
Strolling into the art room being relaxed that there wouldn't be any awkward confrontations Tilly casually sat down at her desk and turned around to start talking to her friends. When out of the blue she heard a soft but authoritive voice bring her nerves back "Alright guys, sorry I've been away for a bit, won't happen again I promise" as she said the last part her eyes quickly flicked over to where Tilly was sitting and then she started obviously pulling her head in the opposite direction to stop herself from staring.
The lesson passed slowly and Tilly would find herself staring and longing for Jen as she saw her working round the room helping only with students other than her, but she would swiftly turn her head if she thought Jen was looking even vaugely towards her. "Ok everyone…" it was two minutes from the end of class and everyone had just packed up their things as Jen began "...once you've packed up, leave your homework on my desk and you can go" she finished with a smile as the other students started to file out of the classroom. Searching though her bag for her homework Tilly suddenly remembered that she never got round to doing it, her mind had been to busy worrying about exams and other things. Not noticing Tilly, Jen started to collect the sheets of homework into a pile as she felt a presense infront of her "umm..I'm uhhh sorry miss I didn't have time to do the homework" Tilly's confidence was erased because she simply didn't know what to say. "Oh well umm ok, don't worry just give it to me next lesson" Jen replied slightly surprised at Tilly's unorginised mistake, she looked up, trying to meet Tilly's eyes but instead Tilly carried on looking down and fiddling with her finger nails. Just as Jen lost concentration she let the pile of homework which was being held against her chest, slip through her hands onto the floor, "Oh, sorry" she said as some of them flew down onto Tilly's shoes. "It's fine, really." Tilly insisted as she too bent down and started picking them up. Suddenly when they both reached towards one sheet and Jen's hand was around Tilly's, not letting go, they both looked up and into each others eyes. Jen's eyes drifted towards Tilly's mouth, suddenly realising Tilly was watching she quickly looked back up again and saw Tilly watching her every move with a smile which spread all over her face. Jen looked away in embarresment and pulled her hand away but still smiling about how little she could control her feelings for Tilly. "You alright there, Miss Gilmore?" Tilly cheekily smirked back at her teacher "You can hardly talk, all those looks you've been giving me during lesson" Jen replied "I don't know what you're talking about" Tilly said, Jen looked back at Tilly to find her doing that exact thing. Tesion building Jen leaned in and intented to do what she had wanted for weeks but instead she stopped inches away from Tilly's face examining her perfect lips, noticing Tilly's breathing was getting faster she smiled at the effect she had on the teenager and looked into her eyes "You alright there, Miss Evans?" "Um yeah I'm f-fine" Tilly replied quickly finding it hard to cope with Jen so close, Jen stood up again began to giggle "Oh shut up" Tilly said and slapped Jen's arm gently but still smiling while she stood up, they both had feelings for each other and they knew it. Looking around just to check that there was still no one else in the room Jen quickly grabbed Tilly's hand, loving the feeling of Jen's touch she looked down at their hands and back up to Jen, relieved that they were finally able to touch once more "Tilly, I…" desparately hoping that this wasn't another speech about why they couldn't be together Tilly's heart beat grew faster and faster "…Tilly what's the problem?" Jen said wondering why all of a sudden Tilly was becoming nervous "It's just, I really don't want this to end and I know you don't either, no one will catch us, you know we can be careful. And don't tell me after that that you just want to be friends." Smiling at Tilly's enthusiam, instead of telling her she had got it all wrong, she simply grabbed both of Tilly's shoulders and pulled her in and kissed her hard on the lips, not wanting it to end Tilly kissed her back, she had been wanting to do this for weeks. Jen was leaning in towards Tilly and pushed her up against a wall, bodies pressed together Jen pulled away noticing Tilly's head still leaning forward and wanted more, she simply smiled, both of their hearts beating faster than was healthy. There was a sudden knock on the door, Jen flung herself away from Tilly and shouted "Come in!" Annoyed at the rapid end to their moment together Tilly stood exactly where she was, when Maddie and George walked in "There you are Tils, thought we said we'd meet in the cantine?" Maddie questioned Tilly as she was trying to gather her thoughts, "Oh Tilly was just explaining why she didn't have her homework" Jen said helping out the teenager as she obviously didn't know what to say. "Yeah, I'll have it in tomorrow" Tilly agreed "Let's go guys" "Cool" George added as they all walked out together leaving Jen behind, Tilly wanted to sneak one last look at Jen and as she turned around she caught Jen doing the exact same thing, she winked then turned back around with a smile.
…
After what seemed to be endless and pointless 10 minute chat in the cantine Tilly was stuck in a trance thinking about what had happened in the art room, So does Jen want to be more then friends? Will we be able to see each other outside of college? Tilly had lost herself in her thoughts when she was startled by a vibration from her phone in her jeans pocket. Reaching and opening the text she realised it was from Jen and it said "Hey, wanna see something beautiful tonight? Jen xx" Instantly exciting Tilly replied quickly with "Sure, what were you thinking of? ;) Tilly xx" "Oh behave! I'll show you tonight, 7 at the end of your road sound good? Jen xx" Smiling at the excitement of sneaking around and Jen's reaction to her cheekyness Tilly was about to reply when Maddie interrupted her "What's got in to you?" "Oh uhh just my Mum saying she misses me" Pleased with her convicing lie she goes back to texting the person she really wants to talk to "Yeah, see you then xx"
