"Baby are you in here?"

"In here," Josephine called out

"We have a phone call."

"Do we now?" Jo asked sweetly.

She rolled her eyes pushing a button to put the phone on speaker. Elizabeth was the first to speak saying "You have us both."

"Hello ladies! It is Jac Schaeffer!"

Jo rolled her eyes "We know Jac. What can we do for you?"

"Do you remember that show I pitched you guys?"

You looked at Elizabeth thinking before Lizzie perked up. "The one with the sitcoms?"

"That very same one! It's getting picked up! We start filming soon."

Jo turned to her wife with a wide smile engulfing her into a hug. Jo whispered into her ear "I am so proud of you."

"Jo I need you to report to work tomorrow to start dreaming up some things."

"Yes ma'am"

"Have a good evening ladies!"

"Thanks, Jac!" the two echoed

When they hung up Lizzie asked, "Now why would they need my beautiful wife to come in when there is no filming, nothing to photograph."

"Babe I have been a part of all these movies. They like my input on things like set design, camera angles, and more."

Lizzie grabbed onto her wife's hand sadly saying "But I want to spend the day at home with my wife."

Jo kissed Lizzie's nose "So do I but I gotta do it. How about we get lunch?"

"Okay."

"Perfect!"


Three weeks later Jo walked into the living room to see Lizzie sitting on the couch with a script in hand. She was biting her nail as she read oblivious to the fact her wife was now approaching. Jo slowly sat beside Lizzie placing a coffee cup in front of her. Jo leaned back her laptop on her lap as she began to go over pictures. Lizzie instinctively cuddled into Jo letting out a content sigh. Jo would run her fingers through Lizzie's long locks gently scratching her scalp, something that turned Lizzie to putty without fail. Jo felt as the weight pressed into her got heavier and heavier as Lizzie relaxed. The two had a beautiful relationship; it wasn't rushed or unrealistic. They had their fights and disagreements but the two worked hard for the love they had. They kept their relationship under wraps for the majority of it. Even still they rarely had to deal with the paps. It wasn't until after they were married that they officially announced their relationship. It wasn't a secret that Elizabeth was in a relationship or that she was engaged; they just didn't know who to. They were proud of who they were and never intended on keeping it a secret. It wasn't a secret truthfully. If someone looked hard enough and did enough digging they would have learned who it was.
