Falling In Love With Her

Chapter Six

*Jen's POV**Time Lapse*
It's been 2 months. Lana and I are happier than ever. I've been living with her up here. She's literally my whole world. I mean, she was before too. But, now, she's my girlfriend and I can give her all the love and attention she deserves. We were sitting on the couch. Well, I'm sitting. Lana is laying across the couch with her legs up and her head in my lap. We're watching one of the movies I'm in. It's called The Murder Of Princess Diana. I play a journalist who investigates the death of Princess Diana. Lana is intently watching. I've seen it several times before, so, I'm not paying as much attention. I began playing with a strand of her brown hair. The movie ended and she pressed play on House. I sighed. She loves watching shows and movies I'm in. It's adorable. I like her movies and shows too. But, she doesn't like watching herself. I don't mind watching myself. She looked at me and smiled. I smiled back. "Can we go out tonight?" She asked. I smiled brighter. "Of course, baby girl." I said. She smiled. "What should we do?" I asked. She shrugged. "Paparazzi is going to swarm us no matter where we go. So, we can make our relationship public." I said. She nodded. We've been extremely careful for the past two months, not to make it obvious we're dating. But, we're ready to make it public. My phone began ringing and I answered it. "Hello?" I said. Lana looked up at me and raised an eyebrow. "Hey Jennifer! This is Kelly Ripa! Michael and I were having a meeting earlier and we were wondering if you'd want to be on the show tomorrow?" She said. My eyes went wide. "Yes! That'd be wonderful!" I said, excitedly. "Great! We'll see you tomorrow morning at 9! Can you get here in time?" She asked. "Yes!" I said. "Great! We'd like to talk to you about your breakup with Sebastian as well as talking about Once Upon A Time." "Alright! I'll see you tomorrow!" I said. She hung up. Lana looked at me. "Babe! Come on! We gotta go!" I said. Lana raised an eyebrow. "But, babeee. It's only 9 am." She whined. "We gotta go to New York!" I said. She raised an eyebrow. "That was Kelly Ripa. They want me on the show tomorrow morning to talk about my break up with Sebastian and Once Upon A Time." I said. She smiled. "That's great babe." She said. I smiled. "Do you want me to call my makeup crew?" Lana asked. I shrugged. "Sure baby girl." I said. She smiled. "Can we stay in New York for a bit?" She asked. I nodded. She smiled brightly. "Let's go pack." She said. I nodded and we stood up and walked to the bedroom. Most of my clothes and stuff are here. "How long should we stay?" She asked. "3 days?" I asked. She nodded. "I'm so excited! Ooh! Can we visit my family? I want to introduce you." Lana said. I smiled but was extremely nervous. "O-of course baby girl." I stuttered lightly. She kissed my cheek and I smiled. "There's nothing to be worried about. They'll love you. I promise." She said. I smiled and nodded. We packed our suitcases, then we went to her car. We packed them and then we got in. She got out her phone and we took a selfie. My phone buzzed after a minute. "Mentioned by Lana Parrilla?" I said and smirked. She smiled and backed out of the driveway. I opened the notification and saw the picture we had taken, with the caption "Best friend alert. Love her ❤️💋" I chuckled and put my phone away, after favoriting and retweeting it. She grabbed my left hand with her right and drove with her left. I smiled as she drove to the airport. She got there and we walked in with our suitcases. We went to the front desk and got first class tickets on the next flight to New York City, which leaves in 45 minutes. They'll begin boarding in about 15. We went through security and made our way to the gate. Several people stopped us and asked us for pictures and autographs. Anything for the fans. Our flight began boarding and we moved towards the door. We handed the woman our boarding passes and tickets and she smiled as we entered. When we got on the plane, nobody bothered us. It's 11 am. The plane just took off, so, we'd land around 4:30. Lana grabbed my hand and held it. I smiled. She pulled out her phone and called someone. "Hey Vincent. Jen is going to be on Live with Kelly and Michael tomorrow and I was wondering if you and the crew would be able to share your talents?" She asked in an adorable way. She smiled brightly and held up a thumbs up. "Thanks! We'll see you tomorrow at 8!" She said and hung up. "All good for hair, makeup and wardrobe." She said with a smile. "You're the best." I said and kissed her cheek. She smiled. After about an hour, she fell asleep. I wrapped my arm around her shoulders and she leaned on my shoulder. I can't ever sleep on flights. No matter how late, early or how long the flight is. I was in the window seat, so I watched the clouds and stuff. I love flying. And, with Lana right beside me, I love pretty much anything. The plane finally began landing, and Lana was still asleep. When the plane landed, I gently poked her shoulder. "Mm, what." She groaned. I smiled. "We're here baby girl.. You gotta wake up." I said quietly. She sat up and rubbed her eye. We got off the plane and walked to the gate. We got our luggage from baggage claim and went to the car rental booth. Luckily, they had a black Escalade. I love my Escalade, so I'm glad there's one I can drive. Lana and I both drive Escalades. The guy gave us the key and we walked to the car. We put our stuff in the back and drove to The Hilton, right down the street from where the show is. We got there and parked and there were several teenage girls in the lobby who squealed and fangirled when we entered. We smiled at them and they asked to take pictures with us. We signed autographs and let them take some pictures. "Hi, I made an online reservation." Lana said to the receptionist. She smiled. "Here you go Ms. Parrilla. Enjoy your stay. You too Ms. Morrison." She said. Lana and I both smiled as we walked to the elevator. I pushed the button for the 15th floor. I wrapped my arms around Lana's waist and she smiled. She put her hands on my shoulders. I kissed her lightly and she chuckled. "I love you." I said quietly. "I love you too." She said and kissed me again. I smiled and she pulled away. The doors opened and we walked into the hall. We found our room and entered. We set our bags down and I laid down in one of the beds. Lana came and laid beside me. I wrapped my arms around her and she smiled. "Do you want to go see my family today? Or wait." She said. I shrugged. "We can go today." I said. She nodded. She grabbed her phone and called, I'm assuming, her parents. "Hola Mami! How are you?" She asked. She put her phone on speaker. "I'm good cariño! How are you?" Her mother said. I smiled. "I'm great Mami. Guess where I am." Lana said. "Where?" Her mother asked. "New York!" Lana said excitedly. "Ah! Cariño, you should stop by!" Her mother said. "I will Mami." Lana said, a smile gracing her lips. "I'm actually bringing someone to meet you." Lana said. "Cariño! Quién es?" Her mother shouted in Spanish. I don't speak Spanish.. Maybe I should learn. "Ella es mi novia, Mami." She said and smiled. "Lana! Estoy muy feliz por ti." Her mother said excitedly. "Adios Mami. I'll see you later today." Lana said. "Okay cariño. I love you." Her mom said. Lana smiled brightly. "I love you too Mami." Lana said and hung up. "So babe. Wanna go see my family in Brooklyn?" Lana said and wiggled her eyebrows. I chuckled. "Come onnnn. It'll be fun. I know they'll love you. Just like I do." She said and kissed my nose. I smiled. "Okay." I said. She smiled. I stood up and she hugged me tightly. "We're going to have fun. I promise!" She said and kissed me lightly. "But, we're not even like, dressed nice." I said. She smiled. "It's my family. They don't care." She said and kissed me again. "Come on." She said and grabbed my hand. I chuckled and we walked towards the door. We walked out of our room and to the elevator. Lana pressed the button and the doors opened almost immediately. I smiled. We got in the elevator and she pressed the lobby button. She wrapped her arms around me and I kissed her temple lightly. "I love you." She said quietly. I smiled. "I love you too." I said and wrapped my arms around her. We got to the lobby and got off the elevator. Surprisingly, there wasn't any paparazzi yet. We walked out of the hotel and to the car. "You'll need to drive because... I'll get lost." I said. She laughed at me, but got in the driver's side. I got in the passenger side and she smiled. She grabbed my hand and held it as she began driving. "It'll only take about half an hour." Lana said. "Okay babe." I said. She smiled. My nerves began getting uncontrollable when we got closer and closer. Now, we're here and I'm shaking. "Jen, baby, calm down. Everything will be fine." She said and squeezed my hand. My breathing hitched. "I-I just get really nervous. And what if they don't like me? What if they don't support us? What if they get mad that you're dating a girl?" I said. Lana smiled. "I already told my mom that I was bringing my girlfriend to meet her and she said she was happy for me. Baby, really. It's okay." Lana said. I looked at her and she smiled. I smiled back and we got out of the car. "Are they going to speak Spanish? Because if they are.." I said. Lana smiled. "No. My mom only speaks Spanish when she gets excited. She isn't Hispanic or anything. She's Sicilian. My dad was Puerto-Rican though. So, we spoke some Spanish around him." Lana said. I nodded and we walked to the door of the house. Lana rang the doorbell and smiled at me. A few minutes later, an older woman opened the door. She doesn't look much older than us... "Lana!" She shouted and pulled Lana into a tight hug. "Deena!" Lana shouted and hugged her back. "How are you?" The other woman shouted. Lana smiled. "I'm great. How are you?" Lana asked. "I'm good." The other woman said. "Ah, Deena, this is Jennifer." Lana said and looked at me. "I know who she is. I watch the show. How are you?" She asked and looked at me. I smiled. "I'm good." I said. "Is mom here?" Lana asked. Deena nodded and we walked in. "Cariño!!" A woman shouted. "Mami!" Lana shouted and hugged an older woman. "Es ella?" Her mother asked in Spanish. Lana nodded. "Aparece en la serie contigo?" Her mother said. Lana nodded. "Ya me lo imaginaba." Her mother said. Lana smiled. "Jen, this is my mom." She said. I smiled. "Mom, Deena.. This is my girlfriend." Lana said and came and wrapped her arm around me. They had both heard about Fred I guess. "For how long?" Deena asked. Lana smiled. "Two months." Lana said. I smiled at the two smiling women. "Cariño! I'm so happy!" Lana's mom said and hugged us both. "Thank you Mami." Lana said and smiled brightly. "Come on. Wanna see my room from my childhood?" Lana asked with a smirk. I smiled. "Sure." I said. She grabbed my hand and we walked to the stairs. Then, I noticed a picture of a baseball player on the wall. "Hey, babe, who's this?" I asked quietly. Lana came and stood beside me. A sad smile graced her lips. "T-that would be Sam Parrilla. My f-father. He Uh... He was shot in 1994 by a teenager." Lana said sadly. I pulled her into my arms and held her tight. "Lana... I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have asked..." I said. She shook her head as a few tears fell from her eyes. "You didn't know. It's okay." She said. I wiped her tears away with my thumbs and she smiled. She kissed me lightly, then we walked to a bedroom. She opened the door and there were David Bowie posters, Beatles posters and a bunch of other band posters on her walls. There was a small bed with a pink flowery comforter. Lana closed the door and locked it. I raised an eyebrow and she smirked. "I am in, the one and only, Lana Parrilla's high school bedroom. How many guys did you sneak up here?" I said as I sat down on her bed. She smirked again. "None. Because I was a good girl in high school. How many guys did you sneak into your bedroom?" Lana asked and sauntered over to me, then sat on my lap. I smirked and wrapped my arms around her. "None. I didn't date anyone in high school." I said. She raised an eyebrow. "I was the social outcast. I didn't start dating until college. And even then, I only dated two guys." I said. She smiled. "When did you have your first kiss?" She asked. I smiled. "Do you remember that time in 2012, at a cast party, when everyone got really wasted and we decided to play 7 minutes in heaven?" I asked. She nodded. "Wait. You and I were paired up.." Lana said and looked at my lips. I smiled. "Yeah. And do you remember us kissing? Like, almost the whole time? But we kept it a secret because we blamed it on the alcohol, even though we weren't that drunk?" I said. She chuckled and nodded. "Wait, don't tell me that was your first kiss." She said. I smiled and nodded. "So.. I was your first kiss? And we weren't even a couple?" Lana asked. I smiled and nodded. "You wanna know a secret?" Lana asked. "Sure baby girl." I said. She smiled. "That was my first kiss too." She said and blushed. "But... You were dating Fred at the time." She nodded. "Yeah. Fred and I had been dating for 4 years. He kissed me on the cheek. But, never anything more." She said. I smiled. "I'm glad I was your first kiss." I said. She nodded. "I'm glad I was yours." She said. I chuckled. "So, I used to call you baby girl. You stole my name." She said. I smiled. "Well, baby girl fits you better." I said. She smiled. "And babe fits you better." She said. I smiled. "Can I tell you something?" Lana asked. I nodded. "So... You know that night when Fred was at my house and I ended up admitting my feelings to him for you.. And.. You and I... Hooked up?" She asked. I nodded and looked into her eyes. "That was... My first time." She said and blushed. "Your first time with a woman?" I asked. She shook her head no. "My first time with anyone. At all." She said. "I was saving it for someone I truly loved." She said and stared into my eyes. "Lana..." I started. "I was saving mine too." I said. She smiled. "You mean.. We lost our virginity each other?" Lana said. I smiled. She kissed me lightly. "I love you so much." I said. She nodded. See, even though there are movies and stuff where we kissed other people or had sex with them, but that's all effects. None of that actually happened. "Lana.. I love you." I said and kissed her lightly. She smiled. "I love you too." She said. "Do you want to head back to the hotel? It's almost 8 o'clock." I said. She nodded and stood up. I smiled as she grabbed my hand. We walked out of her room and walked down the stairs. "Adios Mami. We're going to head out and get some dinner." Lana said and hugged her mom. "Bye Deena." Lana said and smiled. "Bye cariño. I'll see you later." Her mom said. We walked outside and got in the car. I drove back to the hotel and it was 8:45. We got out and decided to skip dinner. We weren't hungry. We walked to our room and I flopped down on one of the beds. Lana smiled and laid down beside me. "So, tomorrow. I was thinking, I'd say I was in a new relationship. Then, when they ask who, I'll say the love of my life. Then, you walk out, and I'll be like 'here she is now!' And then I'll kiss you and surprise the hell out of them." I said. She laughed and nodded. "I love you." She said. I smiled. "I love you too." I said. We changed into pajamas, then got back into bed. I wrapped my arms around her and we fell asleep almost immediately.
