DAY FIVE:

Rosie handed Jennie a cup of coffee and kissed the top of her head.

Jennie smiled up at her.

"See I knew you were kidding." Jennie chuckled, sipping happily.

"I'm not kidding. One full day. No touching." Rosie said, her tone serious.

Jennie grinned and fluttered her eyes up through her dark lashes. Rosie smirked.

"No, that's not going to work." Rosie insisted.

Immediately Jennie's lower lip thrust itself out and she folded her arms across her chest.

"Nope, Plan B is a fail, too." Rosie said, shaking her head. Sure enough, she saw Jennie's tongue peek out and she started to trail it over her bottom lip.

"Don't even," Rosie said and pointed at Jennie who stopped in mid-swipe and bit her lip with a guilty look on her face.

"I want eight hours of your undivided attention." Rosie continued.

Jennie yawned loudly and sipped her coffee.

"I have a checklist." Rosie warned, holding up her list.

"Oh my God, again with that list." Jennie muttered, rolling her eyes. It was followed by the trademark Berry hair flip.

"You can shift into full-diva mode, I don't care. We are going to go through this and you are going to cooperate." Rosie continued, ignoring as Jennie mimicked her. "I see that," she said, not bothering to look around.

Jennie blew a loud raspberry.

"That's mature," Rosie continued undeterred. She handed Jennie a copy of the list she had made. Jennie glanced at it and heaved an exaggerated sigh.

"Why can't you just say that I can do all this stuff?" she whined. Rosie glared at her.

"Have you met me?" she deadpanned.

The corner of her mouth quirked up, but Jennie wouldn't budge beyond that.

"Yes, I have most certainly made your acquaintance," she muttered with a grin. "But I have to say I really don't like you very much at the moment."

Now Rosie gave an exaggerated exasperated sigh and shrugged.

"So, if you've finished your coffee, let's go? Daylight's burning." Rosie told her.

Jennie scowled at her as she drained the last from her cup and stood up. Rosie motioned for Jennie to go ahead of her. As Jennie started to trudge by, task list crumpled in her fist, Rosie's eyes flashed and she impulsively grabbed the little brunette around the waist, hauling her back against her. Jennie grinned and bit her lip.

"Tell me you like me," Rosie said with a smile. Jennie shook her head.

"You better tell me you like me," Rosie warned lightly.

Still smiling Jennie shook her head again.

"I like you," Rosie confessed as she kissed her cheek softly. Jennie shrugged.

"I like you very much," Rosie continued, kissing her neck.

Jennie bit her tongue and smiled but didn't say anything.

"You're gonna make me cry if you don't say you like me," Rosie pouted.

Jennie scoffed and side-eyed her. "That was pitiful," she muttered and they both laughed.

"If you play nice today, "Rosie teased, "I promise we'll play nicer later."

Jennie cut her eyes at her again. Rosie quirked her eyebrows and Jennie smiled.
