Lizzie was laying on their couch part of the script in hand. She was beginning to get annoyed. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see Jo looking up from her computer staring at her. After about ten minutes of this Lizzie decided she had had enough.
"What? Why are you staring at me?"
"You have no idea do you?" Jo asked honestly
"What?" Lizzie asked confused
Jo looked at her wife in disbelief "God Lizzie you're gorgeous."
Lizzie rolled her eyes. Jo closed her lid to her laptop sitting up straight "You think I'm lying?"
There was a pause "...No...I just feel you have blinders."
Jo gently stood up. She calmly walked over to Lizzie reaching down she took the script out of Lizzie's hand before laying it on the coffee table. She took a hold of Lizzie's hands pulling her up. "Come with me." She said as she pulled Lizzie through their home.
"Where are we going?" Lizzie asked confused
"Just trust me," Jo said calmly and sweetly
Jo pulled Lizzie into their master bathroom. The large windows and white walls made the room feel bright. Jo positioned Lizzie in front of the mirror. "Look."
"I know. I see myself."
"No." Jo said sternly "Really look."
Jo moved behind Lizzie resting her head on Lizzie's chest while her hands went around Lizzie's waist. Jo was gentle as she said "You Elizabeth Chase are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes on. From your Michael Jackson nose to your kind green eyes every square inch of you has me captivated." She let her hands go and rest on Lizzie's hips just under her waistband. Jo's thumb gently caressed the smooth skin with her thumb. Lizzie just looked forward. She was mesmerized by this woman. Lizzie had never been with someone who loved her so much and wanted her to love herself just as much if not more. Lizzie had anxiety and often found herself doubting herself. Jo always seemed to scoop in and rescue her. Lizzie stood there tears forming. She was so emotional because she had done this for Jo some years ago. Jo was at one of her lowest points after her Grandfather passed. Her self-worth and self-love had taken a dive far off of the deep end. Lizzie remembers walking into Jo's apartment to see her looking hopeless. Lizzie pulled the love of her life up. She took Jo into the bathroom and began to undress her for a shower. Jo quickly covered herself saying "I'm hideous."
Lizzie quickly moved so she was standing in front of Jo "Why would you say such a thing?!"
"Look at me! I'm broken, Lizzie. You don't want to be someone whos broken. You want to be with someone who is whole."
Lizzies heartbroken as Jo spoke. She gently took hold of the towel taking it off of Jo's body. She let her eyes roam up and down Jo's naked form. Jo was trying her best in looking everywhere but Lizzie. Lizzie took hold of Jo's chin forcing her to look at her "You are gorgeous. Do you understand me? You are the most beautiful being I have ever seen. I love this...this..." Lizzie gently let her finger rub over each of Jo's scars. Jo stood there tears streaking down her face. Never had she felt such love.
Lizzie felt as Jo raised her hand to wipe the tears Lizzie didn't know were falling. "I can't believe you remembered that day," Lizzie said
Jo kissed Lizzie's shoulder "I could never forget that day. Its when I knew I was going to marry you."
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"Everything."
"You are my everything."
Lizzie turned in Jo's arms "I'm being serious."
"So am I Liz. You are my everything."
The eyes that stared back at Lizzie held so much love Lizzie doesn't know how Jo could see.
Lizzie leaned in kissing her wife.' Jo pulled Lizzie close backing her up until her butt hit the counter. Jo lifted Lizzie sitting her on the counter of the sink moving to stand between Lizzie's legs. After the oxygen was depleted the two pulled apart panting stupid grins on their faces.
Later that night the two were in bed Red was in between Lizzie's legs as the two talked. Lizzie turned to look at Jo. "How are you feeling?"
"Jo wiggled her toes under the blanket "Great!"
"Ready to return to work?"
"Yes, I've been dying!"
"Lizzie laughed at her wife "Me too."
"Really?"
"Oh yeah. I've been spoiled with the joy of my wife always being on set. Ive missed you like crazy."
"I've missed you too."
"Everyone has been asking me when you are coming back. they are so excited to have you back."
"I'm excited to be back! I've missed my family."
The two enjoyed comfortable silence for a long time before Jo asked "What are you filming tomorrow?
"..."
"Where do I need to be?"
"..."
After Lizzie answered all of Jo's questions Jo smiled "Thanks, baby."
"Anytime!" Lizzie laughed
"We should get some sleep."
"We should."
"I love you."
"I love you more."
"I love you mist."
"Never."
"Never."
They kissed, snuggling into one another before floating away to dram land.
