Tilly had left college coffee less than a minute ago, after having a less than enthusiastic conversation with her shocked friends about her traveling in four days. They may not have said anything to destroy her good mood, yet, Sinead had successfully annoyed her; enough for her to storm out the café. Firstly the scouser's out of character concern for her education "Tilly your up for straight A's!" and swiftly followed by "Stupidest idea I've ever heard, I'm telling ya." which had finally pushed Tilly to leave.

She can barely communicate with Sinead these days, she struggles to find common ground with her college friend. It is an added strain that she continually confessed openly her dislike for Jen; Tilly resents that she had to leave the comments unchallenged and her lover not defended; it did not sit right with her, leaving her feeling resentful.

She knows it is not really her friends fault, she is sure if the affair was not a secret, Sinead would find a new perspective of the circumstance. It is not like she is going out of her way to attack Tilly; it is just a another negative by product to a forbidden affair. The secrets and endless lies she is forced to tell her friends can only lead to their confusion, she acknowledges this may have come as a shock to them; only Neil would truly understand the predicament that would lead to this decision.

She suddenly hears him shouting her name "I'm not in the mood for another lecture Neil." she snaps a little more aggressively than she had intended.

"You're going with Miss Gilmour." he states, making her stop mid step; demonstrating he has understood the decision; despite his shock. He had hoped the teacher had talked her out of quitting college, especially after their 'talk' on the bridge. Perhaps she had tried, he knew how strong Tilly could be at times; her conviction is usually solid.

"Aren't you?" he adds, catching up with her, she does not answer but turns to face him . "You must really love her then." he acknowledges knowing that the usually studious Tilly would not throw away her education without careful consideration. She nods. "Look is there anything I can do or say that will change your mind?" he adds. she shakes her head but smiles. He is not happy with the decision, however, keeps his opinion to himself.

Tilly edges forward "Thanks for keeping quiet about all of this Neil." she adds with a warm smile.

"Hey, what are good friends for." he replies, draping his arm around Tilly's shoulders. "Come back in yeah? we've only got you for a few more days." he adds walking her back to the café.

"What even tho you all think I'm crazy?" she jest back, her previous annoyance disappeared.

"Even tho" he jokes back. "Let me buy you a farewell coffee?" he asks.

"Make it a Mocha." she replies with a smile.

"See, why are girls so complicated man. Why not have either coffee or chocolate? simple" he quizzes shaking his head.

"Because coffee is bitter. A Mocha has the sweetness but also the caffeine, so it's better than chocolate." she says laughing at him "You're gonna have to learn these things if you ever want a girlfriend Neil." she adds mocking him.

"Well, I guess you're the expert." he replies, earning himself a playful slap.


Jen is still desperately pacing back and fourth at the folly, Tilly had left her an emotional wreck, she is terrified of losing her; now it seems she will lose her properly because Tilly is leaving Hollyoaks. Her phone finally rings.

"Where have you been? Did she mention this to you? I don't know what to do?" Jen shouts impatiently down the phone.

"Firstly sit down. Secondly slow down. you're fucking wired Jenny crayon." Ky replies with usual cockney charm. Jen sits on the near by bench and breathes out slowly.

"I'm sorry." She adds after a moment composing herself. "It's Tilly." she adds.

"No shit Sherlock. Whats happened?" comes the reply.

"She quit college but that's not all. She booked us both open tickets to travel starting in Australia." Jen states sighing, hearing it loud for the first time makes her realise the seriousness of the predicament.

"Amazing!" Ky could not resist, after all she had guessed rightly a huge gesture of love would be coming soon for her friend; world travel had surpassed her guess however.

"No! it's not amazing." Jen replies, tears beginning to fall down her cheeks. "I'm gonna lose her Ky." she struggles to regulate he breathing through the sobs.

"Why?" ky replies. "I mean...knowing you...you have turned down her ticket offer, so as not to encourage her leaving college. and if I read her rightly...she wont leave...without you by her side." Ky continues.

"I'm too weak for all this. It's too much to fight continually." Jen finally replies, wiping her tears in her dress.

"Don't be too hard on yourself Jenovive. Something tell me you both can't stay away from each other for too long. Have you told her yet about the job?" she asks.

"No" Jen replies quickly.

"Well, I suggest you hurry up and break her heart. Then prepare your self for the back lash of anger that will fucking follow. But know that in seeking revenge the first thing she will do is enroll back at college...well maybe the second...firstly she will probably throw a brick through your car window." comes the matter of fact reply, followed by laughter; Ky is a better Chess player than all of them.

"I hate you." Jen responds but in jest.

"Love you too. Jender reassignment. Now go get your girl" she says hanging up before the teacher can answer. Jen sends a message to Tilly, asking her to meet her in the folly.

Tilly does not answer, forcing Jen to get lost in her thoughts; her memory wonders back dangerously to the night they spent at Ky's apartment.

She asked her lover to turn over, so she could hide her tears,Tilly had just completely overwhelmed her; she had made her cum at the mere thought of their love. She is years older than the teen, however, is being taught so much about connectivity and communication. She hears a contented sigh escape Tilly's lips, as her own lightly caress a private journey of arousal across her back; the hairs on the teens body stand to attention.

Jen nibbles lightly on her lovers bum before returning back up her body, she kneels either side of the teens hips; then places Tilly's arms above her head on the pillow. Lowering her own body on top of Tilly, she pins the teen to the bed with her own body weight; using her left hand to hold her arms down.

She blows lightly into the red-heads ear and slides in her moist tongue, Tilly gasps at the sensation; then groans as her aroused hips jerk, held in place unable to move beneath her lover. "You can't move, your mine." Jen whispers seductively into her ear. She reaches around and slides her hand between Tilly's body and the bed, reaching the teens groin.

"Jen" the teen calls out breathless, her voice muffled by the pillow in front of her face. "Oh God, please Jen don't" Tilly continues. Tilly sexual arousal mixing with the claustrophobic hold her lover has over her body, is overwhelming her senses. Jen slides her fingers hard against Tilly clit simultaneously pushing down her own hips to halt any movement from the teen; Jen feels her younger lover almost pass out beneath her. Instead of stopping, she then slides two finger inside her; her lover cums immediately...her body trembling then falling limp; Tilly had literally fainted at the sensation.

She sighs heavily shaking her head back into the present, she is so nervous and scared; she wishes both their pain could be avoided.

"Hey" she is interrupted as if on que by Tilly's entrance. she turns nervously looking at the teen.

"What kept you?" she asks abruptly, not frustrated at the red-head but more at her own slowly deleting will power, with every passing moment she is bottling it.

"I came as soon as I got your text. Whats up?" the brunette looks down and exhales heavily. "Jen?" Tilly asks this time more concerned.

"I..um.." she remains looking down, afraid that if she looks up and makes eye contact with her; she will fall under her spell and fold. She braces herself and looks up "I can't go with you." she says, then immediately looks back down again at her fidgeting hands.
