Chapter 2

Tilly awoke with the biggest hangover possile, possibly because she didnt roll in till 4am. It was nice for Tilly, finally waking up later than normal, sleeping into the 12pm mark. Which she didnt mind, its not like she had anything to do today. Thats the reason she stayed out so late, not having to be up to do anything in the morning. It would have been different if it was a college night, she would have been in and in bed by 12pm. But, at least she enjoyed herself. She was almost glad she'd deleted Jens mobile number after the argument. She knew she would have definetly text her last night with the state she was in. Proberly showed herself up for that matter, told Jen how hurt she was or how much she missed her. Tilly regretted deleting Jens number at times but last night wasnt one of them. Sometimes Tilly just hopes she could text Jen, even as friends. About her day, or even how she is doing? It wouldn't be that bad.

Jen woke up worse than yesterday, Tilly popped straight into her mind. Arrrr, just forget her will you! She jumped out of bed in anger. How the hell did this one girl have such a hold over her? She moved to Hollyoaks to get away from all that from her ex and now she was feeling it again! Jen stormed her way downstairs to make herself a coffee to wake herself up a little, making it even worse walking downstairs to Sinaed moaning about having a headache, making it worse Sinaed woke her up at 4am to find her some painkillers for her head. After being woke up Jen found it hard to get Tilly out of her mind again.

''Feeling any better?'' Jen asked. ''Na, feel even worse now but me mam won't let is go back to bed'' Sinaed moaned. Jen laughed a little. Wasnt just her who Diane was annoying then. ''Honestly man, she thinks am a kid'' added Sinaed. ''She's just trying to look out for you, she does it to me too'' replied Jen. ''Well I hate it'' said Sinaed. Jen just carried on making herself a coffee she was sick of hearing Sinaeds winging mouth 24/7 its all she seamed to do. ''So did you enjoy yourself?'' Jen made polite conversation as she sat herself down beside Sinaed. ''Yeah, was a canny night everyone enjoyed themselves like'' replied Sinaed. ''Good, thats what I like to hear'' replied Jen.

Tilly checked her phone, hoping just hoping to receive a text message from Jen but, of course there was nothing at all. Just a message from Ester. Not who I wanted a text from but, what the heck Tilly thought. It was Ester asking if Tilly fancied doing something today? Of course Tilly accepted.

Tilly instantly removed herself from her cosy bed and jumped straight in the shower, brushing her teeth and leaving the bathroom to get ready for her day out with Ester. Tilly was ready within about a hour. She texted Ester and told her to meet her at the coffee shop and then they'd decide where to go then. So Ester did as she was asked, she left her house straight away and went straight to the coffee shop and awaited Tilly with a coffee in hand.

Tilly arrived not long after, her eyes directed straight to the other side of the coffee shop where Jen was sat reading the paper with of course, her favourite chocolate cake beside her. There eyes instantly connected, they almost forgot how powerful the connection between them truely was. Tilly felt butterflies in her stomach, just looking at the beautiful woman who stood before her made her forget everything. All she wanted to do was run over and collapse in her arms.

''Hey everything ok?'' Ester walked towards her breaking the eye contact between herself and Jen. ''Erm, yeah everythings fine lets go sit'' replied Tilly. Ester handed her coffee over and Tilly thanked her. Tilly tried to make a conversation with Ester so she wouldnt bring her attention to Jen again. That was too close, anyone who noticed properly would have known there was something between them. Anyone.

Jen was sat shaking in her seat, seeing Tilly just then honestly reminded her how much she really liked her, how much she wanted to be close to her, touch her and yes obviously kiss her beautiful rosy red lips. She looked amazing today, she'd put such an effort in to herself, more than the passed week. Jen wondered if Ester and Tilly were now an item. But she tried not to think to much of it, if she didnt think of it then it couldn't hurt her could it? what she didnt know couldn't hurt her.

Tilly and Ester sat and had there usual chit chat for a little while, unknowingly to Jen was watching her the whole time. Jen couldn't tear her eyes away from the beauty she saw before her. It was agonizing, not being able to walk over to her just even to have the littlest conversation with her. She wanted it more than anything else in the world.

''So, thanks for last night'' said Ester. Tilly looked at her confused. ''No..problem'' said Tilly. ''Ah you forgot didn't you'' Ester laughed nervously. ''Ah god no, I wasn't sure what you ment'' Tilly giggled. ''What shall we do today then?'' Ester asked. ''I'm not sure, anything'' replied Tilly. ''Do you want another coffee?'' Tilly asked. ''Erm, can I ask you something first?'' Ester questionned. ''Yeah sure'' replied Tilly. ''Last night? does that mean we're like together?'' Ester asked. ''I'm not sure, erm...yeah if you like but take it slow?'' Tilly asked. ''Yeah that sounds great and yeah, I will have a coffee'' said Ester.

Tilly got up and walked towards the counter, she felt Jens eyes buring a hole in her as she walked. She felt pretty bad, she hadn't even come close to moving on from Jen but she'd just agreed to start things up with Ester. It confused her, she didnt know why she said yes. She liked Ester, but she didnt really like her in that way. Tilly just decided she would give her a chance, and if it doesn't work out then at least she went ahead and tried. Tilly ordered two coffees and awaited at the counter for them. Then she felt the presents of someone behind her. Not someone, Jen, she smelt the perfume the smell that normally got her through the day but today, it was agonizing.

''Tilly, how are you?'' Jen asked. ''Oh hi, yeah I am fine thanks you?'' Tilly questionned. ''Yeah, i'm good thanks'' replied Jen. ''I thought mabye we could have a chat sometime'' said Jen. ''Actually Jen, i'd rather not lets just forget it yeah?'' replied Tilly. ''How could we just forget come on, it can't hurt to have a chat'' said Jen confused. ''I'm busy, I have made plans with Ester now sorry'' replied Tilly. ''Right, well mabye you could text me when your free?'' said Jen. ''I deleted your number, I will just see you around Jen'' said Tilly. With that Tilly collected her coffee's from the woman and walked back towards Ester. Leaving Jen sick behind. Tilly felt sick, now more than ever she regretted saying she'd start things up with Ester. But what could she do, she knew she'd leave Ester for Jen and Jen would leave her heartbroken yet again.

Jen left the coffee shop after being shut down instantly. She felt stupid, how could she have been so careless. She felt like she'd repetedly been kicked in the stomach. She felt like falling down, she wanted to get away from here. She'd stupidly fell for someone she couldn't be with and it was hurting more than ever before.

Instead of going out Tilly and Ester just decided a lazy day in Tilly's was the plan. A couple of DVDs some food and some general chitchat amongst the two of them sounded great.

Who knows, Tilly could end up falling for Ester or not?
