Charlie, with her head still in her pillow, patted around the empty space beside her, suddenly realising that she and Joey had….you know DONE IT! [soz childish I know…ehem lets continue] she rolled over and grabbed the sheets up to her chest, sitting up. "Joey?" "mmmph" A sleepy Joey let out from the bottom of the bed. Charlie grinned "Where are you? I can't actually see you." Charlie leaned over and started rummaging through the duvet, eventually finding Joey at the very end of the bed, with one leg sticking out, she smiled at her. "….how?" shaking her head "Seriously……..how?" Joey smiled and rubbed her eyes. "I've always woken up like this, I have no idea why." Charlie leaned closer to kiss her, which was more then welcomed by Jo. "By the way I have a bone to pick with you." Joey continued "Is that so…" Charlie lay on top of her and played with her hair. "You SO snore!" Joey let out, giggling. "Well that's probably your fault." Charlie ventured "Oh yeah, and how's that?" Joey raised an eyebrow. "Well I simply have no idea what you did to me last night." Charlie buried her head in her neck, smelling her scent. Wow, simply wow. Charlie secretly thought. Joey closed her eyes smiling.
They lay there for a while, taking in the moment. Joey smoothed the growing frown off Charlie's face with her thumbs. Clearly her thoughts were contrasting to the smile she presented.
Does this honestly make me gay? Does Joey even realise where this relationship is heading? What about Ruby? (who is actually my daughter) What about dad and Morag? Oh and for fucks sake the town? The town, I haven't even let myself go there yet. I've been blocking out most of it, hoping that day never comes. I'm completely gutless.
"So em…..last night….was I.." Charlie trailed off as she lifted her head, but failed to meet Joey's eyes. Joey grinned "please finish." Charlie blushed, and let a cheeky grin consume her face. Joey let out a little giggle. "Was I any good?" She finally said. Joey thought, looking for the perfect words. "Well?" Charlie demanded. "Hubbada hubbada!" She said into her ear, sending her off into girly giggles. "Really?" Joey nodded "Whao!" Charlie grew rather red again, satisfying Joey. "Are you alright with everything that happened? I didn't push you or anything did I?" "No! Not at all, I wanted it to happen." Charlie reassured her. "But you're worried about something, I can see it in your eyes." She sighed. "I'm just…….worrying how everyone's going to take it, that's all. Ruby's been great, now to think of it, she was rather encouraging to begin with anyway." Charlie rolled her eyes "When we first met, she started teasing me about you, remember the whole wonder woman thing?" Joey put her hands over her face. "Oh that's all starting to make sense now! Yes I remember hehe." Jo pulled away from her face and reached for Charlie's. "Don't worry, we'll deal with everything together, ok?" Charlie nodded, and leaned in for a kiss. She abruptly pulled away "did either one of us lock the door last night?" Panic struck both their faces. "Charlie have you seen Joey this morning? I haven't seen her anywhere." Ruby swung the door open and grimaced at the sight. Charlie had dove for the covers which only hid their heads and their butts, bare legs were dangling at the end of the bed. "I..eh…OH MY GOD!" the door slammed as Ruby left.
[inside the covers]
"Oh my god! What the hell?" Joey pulled Charlie closer, still whispering. Charlie couldn't contain herself and started giggling again. "This is as bad as the time mum caught me with one of my boyfriends at home, Brian was his name." "How can you laugh? You do realise we've scared her for life now!" "mmm Yeah I know." She's actually wicked! I love it. I love her. Joey silently thought. They pulled each other in even closer and began all over again.

"Oh hey Joey, I didn't know you slept over last night." Leah smiled, oblivious to the embarrassed smiled they were hiding. Ruby (however) began rather loudly "dum dum da dum DUM DUM DA DUM…" she waited eagerly for a response. She frowned when a storming Charlie didn't walk into the kitchen, instead a smitten one did. "Ah well this sucks, now she's too googly eyed to be teased!" She pointed out "Joey I like you, but you've clearly ruined my fun!" She smiled, and wittily replied "Wonder woman strikes again!" She jumped on to one of the chairs and put her arms out in front like superman. All three burst into laughter, leaving Leah completely clueless behind them. Charlie shook her head. What have I got myself into?

"AHH!" Ruby jumped up and down. "Oh I love this song." She leaped up from the deck chair in the garden and pounced at the stereo system to turn it up.
"Be young, be foolish, but be happy
Be young, be foolish, but be happy
Don't let the rain get you down, it's a waste of time
A waste of time
Have your fun, live everyday in the bright sunshine
The bright sunshine…"
Charlie and Joey were washing the car. What had started as a chore had soon turned out to be massive fun. Joey had found out just how much fun one could have with the power of the hose in ones hands. She pointed it at Charlie with a cheeky grin. "Don't you dare!" She tried hard not to scream. "haha that's funny I remember you screaming something similar on the beach that day." Ruby giggled. "I mean it, I'm a cop." She reminded her, but had a grin of her own. "I guess we really should test out those handcuffs sometime anyway." She smirked. "Please! I'm still here." Rubz kindly reminded them both.
Out of no where Aden popped up. "BOOOOOOO!" He yelled, stamping his feet. The entire neighbourhood echoed with terrified screams from all of them, including Leah who was in the house with VJ. Joey spun around and sprayed him with the hose not thinking. She slowly opened her eyes to find where exactly she had aimed. She giggled with embarrassment, and covered her mouth. "Sorry Aden, I eh…you scared us." Aden didn't look happy, not one little bit. Charlie and Ruby were in fits, tears streaming. "I'm so glad you find this funny!" He looked down at his jeans, just below his waist, and then covered his front with his hands. This is awkward. He couldn't go home, people would surely laugh, so he had to stay. Xavier and Jai, came through from the house, and found what they were all laughing at. "Dude….have you wet yourself?" Aden went crimson, which caused repeated bursts of giggles.
Charlie lashed out at Joey and stole the hose from her "See how the tables turn when the criminal doesn't pay attention?" "Who you calling criminal? What's criminal, is how short those shorts on you are!" Joey pointed, causing more hysterics. Charlie blushed for the umpteenth time. "For that I'm going to have to take you down!" Could this get any better? HOT JOEY WITH A WATER FIGHT…WHOA! She pointed the hose at Joey, who ran straight inside, waiting for her in the bedroom, behind the door. Charlie dumped the hose and followed.
"Where they going?" Jai asked. Ruby, Xavier and Aden shook their heads. "You don't want to know mate!"
