"How've you been, Alison?" Ali's mom asked. Alison smiled genuinely.

"I've been really good. How are things with dad?" Ali asked carefully.

The older woman sighed. "He's taking it all really hard." A few months prior, Ali's mom had decided that she wanted a divorce from her husband. Ali wasn't surprised, because they'd had arguments a lot when she was younger, but she was concerned about how her dad was reacting toward it.

Ali just frowned and nodded, taking another sip of her coffee.

"How are the girls?"

"They're good. Aria is starting some summer classes next week. She wants to work at Rosewood High," Ali answered, wondering when the right time would be to mention Emily.

"I've always thought that Aria would make a great teacher," her mom commented, nodding with approval as she took a sip of her coffee. "Are you seeing anyone, Alison?"

Well, looks like now is the right time to mention Emily.

Ali sat up straighter in her chair. "Uh yeah, Mom, I actually wanted to talk to you about that."

Her mom raised an eyebrow. "Alison, are you pregnant?"

Ali blinked and then furrowed her eyebrows. "No. No, I'm not pregnant, Mom," she insisted. Her mom gave a relieved exhale and then nodded for Alison to continue with what she wanted to say.

"I know this will come to you as a surprise, but I hope you can try to understand. I'm dating... a girl," Alison explained, her voice a lot quieter than normal.

Her mom opened her mouth, and then closed it, pursing her lips. Ali braced herself for the worse, but she didn't think that her mom would actually do anything bad enough for her to need to have that brace. They sat there silently, their warm coffees wrapped in their hands. Ali watched her mother carefully as the older woman processed the idea of her daughter dating a girl.

"Mom?" Ali finally asked.

"You're right... this is a surprise," her mom said slowly, nodding her head at the same speed. "But you know that I love you, Alison, you're my daughter. I'm not going to judge you for dating a girl."

Alison let out a sigh, even though she'd expected this calm reaction. A small part of her had expected all hell to break loose. "Thanks, Mom."

Her mom gave her a smile. "So, who is this girl?"

Ali felt herself already blushing. "Her name is Emily Fields. She used to go to Rosewood High, and then she went to school in Philly, and now she's back here, and I just met her three weeks ago. Her mom lives down the street, too."

"When do I get to meet her?" her mom asked, still smiling. A grin spread across Alison's face.

"Whenever you're free," she answered, biting her lip.

"Well, how about, I'll call you when I find a time that we can do dinner at my place?" her mom suggested.

Ali nodded. "That sounds great. Thank you, Mom. I'm really grateful to have a mom like you."

"If only you could go back in time and tell teenager Alison that she would one day be saying that to me," her mom joked, grabbing Ali into a tight hug.

They chatted for a little while longer, straying off of the topic of Emily and onto the topic of work and life in general. Alison actually liked hanging out with her mom, now that she didn't get to as much. She agreed with her mom, if she went back in time to tell young Alison that she would be thinking these things one day, the younger version of herself would've laughed and not believed it for a second. She'd honestly changed a lot.

After her coffee with her mom, Alison finally got to head home. Honestly, though, she was planning on only stopping into her apartment for a few minutes before going to Emily's. They'd made it a sort of unspoken rule that they switched off which apartment they spent time in every afternoon. Honestly, by now it was like they basically lived in an apartment double the size, and together. Sometimes, they both accidentally fell asleep together in one apartment, and those were Ali's favorite nights.

As Ali parked in front of the building, she contemplated on whether or not to tell Emily that she'd met Paige that day. Ultimately, she decided not to. She didn't want to stress her girlfriend out about it. Paige was probably going to just disappear again anyway.

EEE

As Emily found herself engulfed in the rerun of Glee that she was watching, the lock on the door of her apartment started to turn. Emily wasn't worried about it though. The only people with access to her apartment were her and Alison.

Sure enough, the blonde came into the room with a bag and a paper cup of coffee. She closed the door behind her and set down her purse, before crawling onto the couch next to Emily. "Hey, babe," Emily greeted her, pecking her lips. Ali smiled.

"Hey, I'm sorry I was gone so late," Ali apologized unnecessarily. Emily didn't blame her for needing a little extra cash.

"Don't worry about it," Emily insisted, smiling.

"Well, too late. I bought you apology coffee and a muffin," Alison admitted, handing her the cup and the bag. Emily chuckled and took a sip of the coffee. "You won't believe what happened today."

As Ali said that, Emily flashed back to her accidentally picking up Paige's call. She briefly considered telling Ali about it, but she didn't want her girlfriend to worry about it. Plus, Paige was probably just going to disappear into her own world again anyway. "What happened today?" Emily asked, leaning her head onto Ali's shoulder.

"I told my mom about us," Ali admitted.

Emily raised her head and looked at Alison with surprise. "How'd she react?"

"She was cool," Alison answered with a smile. "She wants to meet you."

Emily felt a slight blush on her cheeks from the way that Ali was smiling at her. "Well, I'd like to meet her."

"She said she'd call when she finds a night that she can make us dinner at her place," Ali explained, before sighing happily. "It was a good day."

"Agreed," Emily mumbled, leaning against Ali again, who wrapped her arms around her. They'd gotten much cuddlier with each other over the past couple of weeks. "Though it would've been way better if you'd been here with me for more of it."

"I'll make it up to you," Ali promised, before turning so that she was sitting on Emily's lap, facing her. Their lips joined instantly, molding together in their perfect fit. Emily's hands moved around Ali's waist and up under her shirt, moving over her soft skin. Emily loved Ali's skin. Honestly, she was starting to love every part of Ali, but she didn't know when she should tell her.

Ali moaned against Emily's lips and then trailed her own lips down to Emily's neck. The brunette moaned instantly. Alison's hands were under her shirt, tracing over her abs, and it felt so damn good to feel the blonde's hands on her.

After a few minutes of intense making out, Ali whispered, "How's that for me making it up to you?"

"Mm, maybe a little longer?" Emily asked, puling Alison in for another kiss. Honestly, she really just wanted to do the deed with Ali, but she didn't want it to be rushed or done at the wrong time. She wanted it to be perfect, and she had a feeling that Alison had the same idea.

So she would wait, but as she found herself falling into the depths of love, she didn't know how long she could wait to fully experience her gorgeous, amazing girlfriend.
