As September rolled into October, Jennie and I had found ourselves spending more and more time over each other's houses. Today I was over Jennie's, while being tangled up with her on the bed, making out like there was no tomorrow. I wouldn't care if the world was about to end with the way she was kissing me.

Today, we have been snogging like crazy for a while when we both pull back, flopping back on the bed. Chest heaving, as I try to get the much-needed oxygen in my body. Lack of breathing is totally worth it for her.

"What are we doing here?" Jennie asks into the silence. I pop up on my elbow so that I can look down at her, while quirking an eyebrow. I thought the snogging was quite obvious. "Don't get me wrong, this is fun but, is this it? Just making out in secret."

"I hope not." I answer honestly. "This, whatever this is, is the best feeling I've ever had. Being with you feels right. I'd been questioning myself for a while and then we kissed and it felt like all the answers had suddenly landed in my lap. I'm not saying that we have to be open with everyone but maybe we could, I don't know, maybe we could be a couple?" I nervously ask.

Jennie stares at me for a moment, not saying anything, while my heart rate skyrockets. What have I done?

Then she smiles, a smile that never fails to make me turn gooey. "So, does that make you my girlfriend?"

"If you'll take me."

She bites her bottom lip and a pondering look takes over her face. "I'm not sure, what will I tell my other suitors?" she asks in mock seriousness. This is a side of her that I never would have seen, if it wasn't for that first kiss, she really is quite playful.

I growl. "Tell them that your girlfriend doesn't like sharing and will whoop all their arses if they even dare to look at you."

She giggles cutely but I lean in and cut them off with a kiss. I just got myself a girlfriend.
