Hello, sorry this took me ages to write. Been busy sorry its short I was struggling a little bit of how I wanted this to go.
Jen making her way into the living room where David was sitting on the sitting on the sofa.
"How you feeling?" asked David.
Shrugging her shoulders "bit better I suppose" sitting on the sofa with wet hair she just had just had a shower after arriving at David's place.
"It will get better Jen. I can promise you that." David doing his best to reassure Jen. Pulling her in for a hug.
Jen resting her head on his chest. "I wish people would stop saying that. It won't get better not if I don't have Tilly." David rubbing her arm to comfort her.
"If you are meant to be together then you will find each other, no matter how long it takes. All you need to do is sort yourself out."
Jen nodded in agreement. As much as she wanted to go back and find Tilly. She knew nothing had changed the last the last time she saw her. She needed to gain her confidence back as she lost that when being sacked from her job. Which was quite right to as much she loved Tilly it was still wrong. She needed to prove a point to Tilly show her the old Jen who Tilly first met. When they were first courting Tilly was in awe of Jen. She loved that she was daring and adventurous.
"What happens if she has found someone else? I don't think I can handle that?" letting all her insecurities out. welling up at the thought.
"Jen….Stop thinking about all what ifs. It's not going to do any good. Just focus on yourself that what matters then Tilly." reassuring Jen.
"Where's the Jen who stayed strong and wont let nothing defeat her and is always smiling. Eh?"
"She got lost somewhere."
"well I want her back I miss her. First thing first though we going to stay positive about things then find a job, have some fun and then you go and get Tilly. Show her that old Jen we all know and love."
Jen stayed quiet how about we stick a film on?" asked David trying to distract Jen.
"Yeah okay… but no romcons okay."
David agreed both of them sat watching a film. After the film Jen had fallen asleep she had a busy day. David contemplating in leaving her there but decided she would be more comfortable in bed.
Since arriving back in Hollyoaks from there little holiday Esther had been spending a lot more time at Tillys place. As things were not going great at home not with Nancy/Sienna drama. Which was ripping her family apart. Tilly suggested for her to stay round hers a couple of days to give Esther some breathing space. She ended up moving in but Tilly couldn't really tell her that didn't want her to.
George was in the kitchen trying to see if there was any food in but it looked very unlikely. Finally finding some cereal but there was no milk. Great George thought to himself.
"Moring" Tilly entering the house with full of shopping.
"I hope you have some milk in your bags?"
"Yep" passing over it over to him.
"Who ate the last of the bread?"
Not me." Holding her hands up
"Esther then. If she is going to eat the food at least she can do is replace it."
"Hey….I'm sure she was going to." Defending her girlfriend.
"Yeah I know, you know I get grouchy when there is no food around."
Tilly smiling in agreement she knew full well what he got like when he was hungry. He was worse the person to go with on long car journeys.
"So where Esther then? Normally you too are joined at the hip."
"err… we don't spend every waking moment together. Anyway she gone home for a bit. To be honest I'm hoping things at home have improved because as much as I love her staying here I hope she might go home."
"Maybe it would do some good. I mean it's still early days with you two. You don't want to be living each other's pockets. Can I ask you one thing?"
Tilly nodded.
"Are you happy?" Tilly taking a seat on the sofa. "What! Where is this coming from?"
"Well when I see you with Esther sometimes I get the feeling you don't want to be in relationship with her. I think you still have feelings for Jen?"
"What no! Don't you bring her name into my relationship with Esther? Me and her are fine." Tilly getting all defensive. Tilly heading upstairs to her bedroom.
"Tilly….. I didn't mean it…..come on Tilly…..
Hearing her bedroom door shut.
10 minutes later George knocks on her door. "Can I come in?" peeping his head through the door.
Tilly was sat on her bed. "You can come in."
"Look I'm sorry if I upset you what I said. I didn't mean to all I meant was that I want to see you happy weather that's with Esther on not."
I know. I'm sorry for overreacting its just when you mentioned….." tilly unable to finish her sentence. Feeling a lump in her throat. Looking at her hands unable to look at George, who made his way over to Tilly sitting on her bed.
