The Right Place - Jenna Ortega x Female Reader

NEW YORK NIGHTS

y/n POV

Soothing ambience from the November rain filled the room as the credits from The Bronx Tale faded out. Something about the way it trickled against the window softly, not too heavy, was calming. As oppose to just a few short hours ago when there were people frantically running around NBC studios getting everything ready for Jimmy Fallon.

A dimly lit bedside lamp tried it's best to be of light source. I didn't mind however, it was perfect. The small brunette shifted positions beside me at the foot of the bed whilst I remained focused on the home screen of Amazon Prime. She was exhausted from todays events and I couldn't blame her. Multiple interviews for the promotion of the sixth scream installment. Manhattan to meet with Sean Evans to film an episode of Hot Ones then back to New York City for Fallon.

My eyes drifted from the TV screen down to Jenna. I couldn't resist the way she looked so comfortable with me. The sight instantly comforting me. We both donned hoodies and pajama shorts in best efforts to relax for the evening. She noticed my gaze on her and nudges my shoulder with her foot, laying her phone down beside her on the bed. Sending my a small smile then she directs her attention to the blank ceiling.

"thank you for being there tonight" she says mindlessly playing with her fingers.

"thank you for allowing me to be there. I had a great talk with Enrique, it was really nice." I place a hand on her exposed thigh, gently caressing it with my thumb. Reaching over to the bedside with my free hand for the remote to turn off the TV.

"I should head back to my room soon"

There was no response from her. She looked like she was in thought. "I want you to walk the red carpet with me on Thursday" Jenna blurts out, causing me to drop the remote to the floor in surprise.

"wha-what? for the movie?" I ask, directing my attention back to her

Jenna props herself up on her elbows and looks at me. "yeah" she offers a nervous smile
The brunette sat up onto her knees, inching closer to me as my eyes watch every move she makes. Feeling in disbelief almost, that she mentioned such an idea.

"I cant take anymore of this Percy stuff. I want to talk about you. About us. I want you to be there with me"
a grin creeps it's way onto my face as she confesses. is this what she wanted to talk about?

My heart thumping as if it desperately wants to leap from my chest. Pumping it's blood with great speed, full of love all throughout my body. Reaching my hand out to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, out of her face, she lets a content sigh go from her lips as my hand cups her cheek lovingly.

"are you sure?"

She leans into my touch and I watch her intently when she describes how she feels.
"yes" she sighs. "it's not because I feel pressured, I don't. I have been weighing this up in my head for months.. a-and now that we are together, I need to be open about it. I don't have to go into details to anyone because I do still like my life to be private... but.. I want people to know about you.."

Jenna looks at me as if she's almost pleading for me to give her an answer. Although, by now she should know what i'd say.

Smiling at her confession. At first I couldn't believe she was really asking me to walk the red carpet with her. But now having heard her out I feel happy and overwhelmed knowing she's finally ready.

Unable to process words, all I can do is pull the brunette in for a passionate kiss. Her warm hands cup my cheeks and without breaking the kiss, she hoists her right leg over the other side of my waist. My hands now roaming her thighs underneath the fabric of her shorts to her ass as she straddles me. I pull back from the moment so we could both catch our breath, her chocolate orbs meet mine and she flashes me a big smile.
