I know i've been dragging this on for a while without them being together as a couple but it's what some readers asked for, and this way I will be able to make more chapters for the two being together, so hopefully be a long story for the pair. Thanks for your reviews again.

Leave your reviews, ideas. Anything :)

Chapter 19

Laura's POV

I haven't quite felt anything like it. The connection I felt when I was around Tilly Evens was unbelivable. She'd made her feel so alive so happy for herself. It just made her feel like she was oblivious to the whole world around her when Tilly was around. It was like she'd had some of the best conversations possible with Tilly and she couldn't quite get them out of her mind.

She was absolotly beautiful, her short red hair which swept its way over her forhead, those big hazle eyes which swept me in so heavly. The way she smiled, it was the most beautiful smile i'd ever seen. I knew as soon as I set my eyes on the redhead she was something special.

Normally people who are so beautiful have the sence of humor of a gold fish, but again Tilly had been different. She'd come up with some of the most inspiring conversations about art when I was around her. The way she expressed her feelings about every tiny little bit of detail when looking at one peice of art work.

She's like me, everything about her! God why on earth can't I stop thinking about her. You'd think i'd of been in a relationship with her for years. She hadn't even gave me the wrong impression towards a relationship either. I know she's gay but not once did she give me some sort of reaction of liking me that way. She always talked about this one woman Jen her name was, spoke about her in such detail. Maybe she's in a relationship with her I don't know but it's not stopping me thinking about her. Is that bad?

I honestly think thats why I have fallen for the redhead, because most girls give me the attention I want and need. But her, she was just acting like a friend and it was nice. She was there with me because she wanted to be, not just because I have a lot of money, or because i'm smart. Just because she wanted to be and that made me feel special for the first time in a long, long time.

Tilly arrived back home after her long journey with a smile on her face. Which her parents instantly noticed the change in her. She seamed brighter, more happy so they new she'd finally arrived back home to her usual self. They knew the trip would do her the world of good. They didn't question it all they asked is if she had a good time and of course her answer was yes. Before long returning back home Tilly put her suitcase in the downstairs cubbord for her mother to wash her clothes and made her way straight around Sinaeds. Happy and merrily bouncing her way across the path towards Dianes.

Sinaed answered the door and straight away was relieved to see Tilly standing there with a smile on her face. Not because Tilly was finally here to talk to her but because Tilly was standing there looking her happy chirpy self which Sinaed hadn't seen in a long time. Sinaed invited Tilly inside straight away and they sat on the sofa beside Diane and Jen who were more than relieved to Tilly finally being here. Sinaed just hadn't been herself and now she had a smile on her face just as big as Tillys.

Jen noticed the instant change in Tilly and was really happy to finally see her back to her normal self again. It was the best thing to lighten up her day. Tilly put her phone on the table while she listened to everything Sinaed had to say. Giving Jen that usual smile she used to before, Jen knew just by the way Tilly kept looking at her she felt exactly the same way as she did. Sinaed couldn't really come out with the whole situation of not wanting the baby so Diane came out with it for her and explained how Sinaed had been feeling and how she wanted nothing more than to become a vet and being pregnant would only get in the way of that.

''What do you think Tilly?'' Sinaed asked seriously.

''I don't really know what to say, all I can say is you have the best people around you possible. Were all here to help you every step of the way and I for one will be there to babysit when ever you need me too and i'm sure your mum and Bart and his family will to. So even if you do, like keep the baby your still going to be able to follow your dream and become a vet. I know you'll be a brilliant mum and a brilliant vet. But either way. I'm here Sinaed you have to know that'' replied Tilly.

Sinaed, Jen and Diane listened to every word Tilly had just said and it really got Sinaed thinking properly. Diane knew she couldn't of put the whole talk across better herself even if she tried.

''Thank you so much Tilly, I'm going to keep the baby'' Sinaed smiled.

''Thats what I like to hear Sinaed. Don't worry yourself everything will fall right into place you'll see'' said Tilly hugging her friend tightly.

Tilly, Sinaed, Jen and Diane were in the middle of a conversation about baby names, and what they all thought the baby was going to be boy or girl and Tillys phone furiously vibrated over and over again on the table. She seen who it was straight away and she wasnt the only one. Jen and Sinaed saw too. Tilly picked up the phone and answered it politely so she could explain now really wasnt a good time.

Hello Tilly, to soon?

Laura, no it's not to soon. I'm just a little busy at the minute. Call me later or text even

I just wanted to know you got home safe thats all

Yeah, thanks I got home safe

Alright well I will give you a ring later then Tilly

Yeah no problem, speak later Laura bye.

Tilly felt a little embarrassed for picking up the phone while everyone was around because she could feel everyones eyes buring into her as she spoke. She felt weird speaking to another girl in the company of Jen, somehow it made her feel like she'd put Jen off and thats one thing she definetly didnt want.

''Who was that?'' Sinaed smiled. ''Laura'' replied Tilly turning her phone off and putting it back on the table. ''So? How do you know this Laura?'' Diane asked. ''I just met her at London in one of the gallerys. Got hanging out a bit while I was down there showed me and my nan around and stuff'' replied Tilly. She could feel herself burning with embarrassment she really didnt want to have this conversation when Jen was sitting right beside her. She wasnt the only one Jen didnt want to hear it either. ''Ohhh our Tills finally found a bird then'' giggled Sinaed. ''Sinaed, it's not like that. You always think the worst don't you. Now less of me and lets go shopping for the first bits I didn't spend anything at London and I want to treat the little baba'' said Tilly changing the subject. ''I'll second that'' said Diane. Jen also agreed and Sinaed couldn't wait. ''So how come you didn't spend anything?'' Sinaed asked actually knowing the answer. ''Erm...Why do you ask? I dont know I just didn't'' Tilly rushed. ''Ahhhhh Laura wouldn't let you pay for anything would she? proper lady friend is she?'' Sinaed giggled putting on her coat. ''Whatever Sinaed'' Tilly blushed.

Jen drove them all into town so they could all equally start to get the little things in for Sinaed and the little baba. In and out of different baby shops. Diane was going wild with her money, she was more exited that Sinaed in fact. Getting all cream and white baby clothing with them not knowing what Sinaed was actually having yet. All went there seperate ways to get there own little thing for Sinaed then meeting back up in KFC in a hour to show of what they'd bought.

Tilly wanted to get something special, something that was actually worth buying. She knew everyone would be buying clothes, bottles, nappys ect... So she wanted to buy something different. The first shop she'd went to she seen it. A beautiful all white moses basket with Mammy Loves You on it. Tilly fell in love with it as soon as she'd seen it and wasn't thinking twice about buying it. It also helped that it had been put down to half price in the sales. Within minutes the box was brought to the desk and paid for. Next Tilly bought baby born vests, a silver plated dummy to go on the moses basket and a vest which read Daddy Loves You.

Finally meeting up with Jen, Sinaed and Diane back at KFC. Tilly had the great big box and two bags full of vests and the usual first born stuff with her having money left over. Diane and Jen had paid half each on Sinaeds ideal bouncing pram to be delivered the next day and again vests, socks, mitens, hats ect. When seeing Tilly struggling through the double doors of KFC Jen instantly stood up and took the box from Tillys hands and helped her to there seats.

''Bloody Hell Tils, what you got in there?'' Sinaed laughed.

''The pictures on the other side, I actually just fell in love'' said Tilly.

Jen instantly turned over the box and placed it down for everyone to see and everyone was shocked. ''Jesus Tilly this is to much man'' said Sinaed. ''Don't be daft will you, you can't put a price on a new born can you? lovely isnt it'' said Tilly. ''Its amazing Tilly, thank you so much you really didnt have to'' said Sinaed standing up to cuddle her friend. Diane was actually still speechless. Sinaed really did have some good friends didnt she?

They ordered themselves some food before struggling there way back to Jens jeep with all the bags before returning back to Dianes to look at all the stuff they'd all bought.

Diane and Sinaed got into the jeep while Tilly and Jen placed all the bags into the back. Jen felt a little silly trying to make conversation with Tilly but that wasn't the case for Tilly at all. She slowly moved her hand over Jens.

''I've missed you Jen, so much'' spoke Tilly quietly.

Jen looked around shocked, she couldn't belive what she was hearing. The biggest smile formed on her face straight away as she looked deep into Tillys eyes.

In the end Sinaed actually had loads of different acsessaries towards the collection which Diane had already been buying on the sly. She still had months to go before the baby arrived and she already had so much. She was greatful to Jen her mum and Tilly for giving her a day to help her take her mind of the whole situation and she equally loved everything they'd bought.

Jen loved the fact of spending a day out with Tilly in other peoples company for once. It was different, and it was hard not to be able to touch one another but still, Tilly had told her she missed her, they were finally back on track.
