Change

*Jamie*

Jamie tried to break eye contact but she was frozen eyes locked onto the blue ones she hadn't looked into for so long. "Dani." She managed to get out in an almost whisper. She didn't think Dani heard her until she heard a "Jamie." At the same pitch as hers.

Jamie knew Dani was also trying to break eye contact but also couldn't. Jamie decided she would close her eyes to get her attention of the blue ones she was set onto. She didn't know this would help break the contact but it did.

"Jamie." Dani said shaking Jamie for attention. Jamie opened her eyes with a hint of fear that was some how noticeable to Dani. "Hey it's okay." Dani said instinctively putting her hand on Jamie's arm. Jamie calmed almost immediately but then noticed Dani's hand. Jamie didn't get scared but nervous from how long it had been since they had shared any contact with each other.

Dani noticed and took her arm away. "There is one thing I have to ask you." Dani said getting extremely nervous. "Alright what is it?" Jamie asked curious to what the question was. "If we could be together now would you want to?" Dani asked getting flustered. "I think you already know that answer." Jamie said also getting a bit flustered.

Jamie wanted nothing more than to be with the girl but knew she couldn't not right now anyways. "Though I don't think it'll come across well if I'm dating a girl with a boyfriend." Jamie giggled trying to lighten the mood. Dani didn't take it as too funny but knew she couldn't be with Jamie yet.

"Why don't we take things slow?" Jamie asked. A clearly confused Dani needed more information to the statement which made Jamie try to hide her smile. "We move at our own pace when your ready and I'm ready we'll figure things out from there." Jamie said with a very strange expression from trying to hide her smile.

"That sounds good, but stop doing that and just smile." Dani said laughing at Jamie's facial expression. Jamie got red quick from two things Dani's laugh and being called out. "Stop laughing!" Jamie said nudging Dani who just laughed harder. Jamie eventually joined in after giving up on stopping Dani.

Truth be told Jamie didn't want Dani to stop laughing but she was embarrassed at what Jamie was laughing at. Once the twos laughing calmed down they felt back to normal. Tears had fallen things had been cleared up and now everything felt normal again. Though the getting flustered was something new because the two always controlled their feelings until now. Even though they might have to do that again because of Edmund they knew that it wouldn't be right to be together behind someone's back.

*Dani*

Once Dani talked with Jamie she had the motivation to end things with Edmund. "Next week." Dani said out of the blue. She looked at a clearly confused Jamie and smiled. "Next week I'll end things with Edmund. I don't think this week is a good idea because it might look suspicious but next week would be perfect." Dani said looking at a now smiling Jamie.

"Sounds perfect. Do we get to hangout as friends in the mean time?" Jamie asked with a little smirk. "I'd hope so." Dani said with a smile. "If you want we can go see Theo and Nellie. They'll be shocked to see you." Dani said thinking of how the girls might react. "I think they hate me but that sounds great." Jamie said with a small smile trying to grow larger but Jamie wouldn't let it.

Dani tried to contain her laugh but couldn't. "Stop that!" She received from Jamie was complaining about Dani laughing at her. "I'm sorry it's just the cutest thing ever." Dani said laughing loudly. Jamie blushed at the word cutest but let it slide.

"I am not cute." Jamie pouted while Dani laughed louder. They continued laughing and pouring until a knock reached Jamie's door. Jamie stood up to see who was at the door. She opened the door to Owen and Hannah who she met earlier.
