Unexpected turn on friendship - Sharon X Sheila

Chapter twenty three: Post proposal feelings

-Sharon and Sheila get home around midnight. They both go to to sleep holding each other, knowing they are now engaged, they couldn't be happier-

-Next morning. Sharon awakes to find Sheila already up, half asleep, but awake-

Sharon: Hey, morning.

-Sheila shuffles closer to Sharon, softly clenching around her waist-

Sheila: We're engaged now~

Sharon: Yeah, I guess we are.

Sheila: Sorry, it's just all I can think about! I'm never going to forget last night.

Sharon: Neither will I...

Sheila: Hey, you seem a bit down...what's up?

Sharon: Oh, sorry. I was just thinking...about our wedding!

Sheila: Already?! Haha, you're adorable. But I think we should start with telling the kids.

Sharon: Oh, right! Definitely didn't forget about them for a second.

Sheila: Guess you're not the only one with this being the main thing on your mind, huh?

Sharon: Heh...

-There was a slight pause as they look into each other's eyes-

Sharon: Was it too soon?

Sheila: What?! No, not at all! Perfect timing, actually. If you didn't propose last night, I would've done so sooner or later.

-Sheila puts her hand on Sharon's cheek and moves in a little closer-

Sheila: The important thing is that we're engaged, right?

-Sheila kisses Sharon's lips. She then slowly pulls away-

Sharon: Why'd you stop?

-Sheila sits ups and stretches-

Sheila: I gotta pick up the boys from Gerald-

Sharon: I'll go.

Sheila: Don't be silly, I'll be fine.

Sharon: Fuck that! At least let me tag along.

Sheila: I doubt he'd say or do anything with the kids there.

Sharon: Still coming.

Sheila: Ok, if you insist.

-they both get dressed and drive to Gerald's-

-When they park, Sheila has a tense look on her face and is slightly gripping the steering wheel-

Sharon: You ok?

Sheila: Yeah, just...

-Sharon puts her hand on Sheila's shoulder-

Sharon: If he tries anything, I'll deal with it.

Sheila: *sigh*

-They both get out of the car and knock on Gerald's door. Ike answers-

Sheila: Hey, Ike. You ready to go?

Ike: Lemme go get Kyle.

-Sheila and Sharon wait at the door for Kyle and Ike. Gerald comes to the door-

Gerald: Oh. What are you doing here?

-Gerald locked eyes with Sheila. She was getting visibility nervous-

Sheila: I've come to pick up my kids.

Gerald: Our kids...

-Gerald looks over to Sharon-
