"Hello! Were home!" Olivia screamed as she entered the house, throwing her backpack down at the bottom of the stairs and kicking her trainers off. "Jordan! We're back!" she continued to scream.

"Alright, Liv, there's no need to shout," Leah lightly scolded, following her sister into the house.

Olivia spun around to look at her older sister and furrowed her eyebrows, "Why? Jord might not have heard us—Jord! We're home!" she repeated as she started to walk into the living room.

"Liv, think of the neighbours," Leah stated, unimpressed as she dropped her car keys on the table in the hallway.

"What about them?" Olivia replied, shrugging her shoulders.

"Oh, I definitely can hear you trouble, in fact I think the whole bloody street might have," Jordan joked as she walked through from the kitchen where she had just let Blu out into the garden. "How'd it go at the doctors then?" she wondered.

"Doc said that I might have it," The teenager remarked.

"Hello love," Leah greeted her girlfriend, kneeling slightly to exchange a brief kiss with the older women. "It was good, the doctor is going to put the referral through so we should hear from the specialist soon enough, so now it's just a waiting game." She explained.

Of course, Leah wasn't going to mention the whole ordeal how the whole time the doctor mindlessly flirted with her, or the fact that she'd gave the blonder her number either.

That wouldn't exactly go down well.

"So, they've confirmed it then?" Jordan wondered.

"Nothing is official yet, the specialist will be able to tell us more," Leah explained, beginning to head out of the living room towards the direction of the kitchen. "Right then, I'd better make a start on tea for us. What do we all fancy?" she asked, having been keen to shake the weird experience and get back to reality of domestic life, living with her partner and sister.

That, in itself, was just as complicated at times.

"Chicken nuggets!" Olivia called from where she sat in the living room.

"Anything is fine, I'm not fussed," Jordan replied, following her girlfriend into the kitchen.

Leah hummed in agreement, routing through the freezer to find something easy enough to cook. With the lack of a food shop, there wasn't much to go with so it looked like chicken nuggets might be an option after all, until they had chance to pop to the shops.

"Feel better now the appointments over with?" Jordan wondered.

"I guess so, and apparently it's somewhat normal for teenagers to not be diagnosed straightaway," Leah explained, making sure that the oven was pre-heated. "I'm finding out things that I had no idea about." She added.
