A Month had past and lot had happened between then and now. Tilly and Esther were a couple now, just like George and Phoebe predicted. Though one person didn't believe it was relationship was Ruby. She didn't think she should be dating so soon after coming out of a relationship with Jen and Esther was still fragile. Not all of Esther's family was pleased especially not Frankie but was kind of expected she was just looking out for her granddaughter.
Tilly also had moved into a rented house with George who were looking out for a tenant. The house was falling to bits but was cheap to rent from Dennis.
It was coming out to summer now and Tilly wanted to relax before starting university. Spending time with her mates & Esther. Things were looking up for Tilly or were they?
Also for Jen things were looking a little bit brighter. She was working for Liam which seemed to be helping her get over the breakup. Though she didn't do a lot of talking she kept herself to herself.
It was a busy Saturday Night and Jen was working with Liam. There big group of girls who were on their hen night. They had been spending a lot of money behind the bar. One of the ladies couldn't keep her eyes of Jen. She was wearing blue short Sleeved Skater Dress that was flattering her figure.
"Looks like you have pulled tonight" Amber said a colleague of hers. Jen looking over to the brunette that had her eye on her all night.
"You should go over there" amber suggested nudging her to go over.
Nah, I'm not interested." Playing it down. "Fair enough" Amber getting back to work.
Later on the brunette came over to the bar. "Hi, can I have 2 glasses of pinot Grigio please." Resting her arms on the bar. "Haven't seen you before" shouting above the noise
"I'm new here. Only just recently moved here." Answered Jen.
"Oh... I see…. You and your boyfriend. ."
No boyfriend. I'm gay." answered Jen. Placing to two drinks on the bar.
"Oh I see. Thanks. Maybe see around later." The brunette leaving the bar. Jen smiled but thought nothing of it. Later on the brunette came over to the bar as her friends were leaving.
"Hello again, here take this" handing over her business card over. Give me a call and we can arrange to meet up." Smiled the brunette.
Jen took the card. "What's your name? Asked the brunette.
"Jen"
"My name is Ellie nice name. Call me when you're free" smiled Ellie heading out of the club with her friends.
Jen and gang begin to clean up the club before heading home. Liam collecting dirty glasses on the counter notices business card left picking it up to throw away. " I wouldn't throw that away that's Jen. She pulled tonight." Amber explains.
"Oi Jen, get you. So are you gonna call her"
Jen was about to head off home before Liam spoke. "No"
"Why not?"
Because I don't want to. I'm not ready for a relationship. There only one person for me.
Jen, you got to let that go!
Have some fun. I'm not asking you to commit or anything. Liam joked.
Letting out a sigh. "Am I ever going to see the old Jen who I used to go out on the pull with?"
"Is that all you're interested to use me for your own needs. I don't think you understand how much I'm hurting shouted out.
Every day is struggle to get up in the morning… and to carry on like everything is normal and you know what It's all my own doing and I hate myself for it. Tears running down her face. Wiping her cheek. "So I'm sorry that you haven't got the old me" running out of the club.
"Jen" calling out for her to stop. Feeling bad for what he said.
Tilly was planning to meet her friend Becca who was friends with Maddie and herself. Becca was unable to attend the funeral but did make contact with Tilly to meet up soon. Tilly was planning to stay the night up in London.
Packing up an overnight bag. "Do you have to go?" Esther sitting on Tilly's bed.
"It's only one night. Smiled Tilly putting jumper in her bag.
"I know but I'll miss you. Plus with what going on at home I could really do with your support."
"Look." Walking toward Esther. "I'll miss you too. Darren and Nancy is not your problem and as I said before its one day. Call me whenever you need to. Okay?" wrapping around her arms around Esther's neck.
"Okay" smiled the blonde. Kissing Tilly.
That night Esther was counting the hours until she was back home. Esther was all new to this feeling. Tilly was her first girlfriend. She liked Tilly when she met up with her in Abersoch and they kissed. Esher can remember that kiss like it was yesterday the butterflies that she had. She can remember when Tilly told her she wasn't interested in relationship and they should stick to being friends but did think that she would change her mind then Jen came.
Laying in her bed she realised that she was ready to take the next step in their relationship. She loved Tilly and could see herself spending the rest of her life with her.
