marjoriexautumn a friends to lovers story.

chapter 9🖤

~marjories pov~

i felt absolutely terrible about what i said to autumn, i didnt mean it one bit.

as i saw her walk into the room, my heart broke. she was wearing a long hoodie, mascara stains down her face and looking visibly drained, a wave of guilt rushed over me, it was all my fault.

"autumn im so so sorry i didnt mean to honestly, please forgive me" marjorie begged.

autumn walked over to the sofa to sit next to marjorie on the sofa and took hold of her hand and said, "honestly marjorie it's okay, you shouldn't be saying sorry, ive just been to much and im really really sorry"

with this marjorie immediately pulled autumn into a deep embrace and kissed her on the forehead.

a couple months had passed and autumn and winter had officially gotten a divorce, marjorie and autumn were official and living together and reece and winter had also stared dating.

they all had mutual agreement, marjorie moved in with autumn and winter moved in with reece, they still drove to work with their ex-partners to avoid suspicion, they couldn't deal with that right now.

marjorie waved bye to reece and headed into the building. she walked into the office and spotted her love, "was winter speeding or something, you seemed to get her unusually fast" she teased and walked over to autumn to give her a kiss.

"nothing out of the ordinary baby" autumn said to marjorie as she sat back down.

a few hours later charlotte was in the office, giving something to marjorie, and autumn was just about to go on on lunch. "marjorie, im just going to quickly nip to the shops do you want anything my lo-" autumn had slipped up, she prayed charlotte didn't notice. but unfortunately she did.

"what was that autumn?" charlotte teased.

"is marjorie your loveee"

autumn quickly shut the office door to avoid anyone hearing, she knew was going to have to confess. she looked over at marjorie for reassurance and marjorie mouthed "you've got this, im so proud of you my love" to her.

"charlotte sit down." autumn said and charlotte did what she was told, she couldn't lie to herself she was a little bit afraid of autumn, but she knew she was safe as her girlfriend mia would immediately jump on the case if anything happened.

autumn was undeniably nervous about telling charlotte about her and marjorie, apart from winter and reece, nobody knew.

"look charlotte...yes me and marjorie are dating, please don't make a big deal out of this, nobody can know" autumn said seriously.

~marjories pov~

marjorie could not be more proud of autumn, seeing her tell charlotte about them, she knew autumn didn't like opening up to people.

marjorie was snapped out of her thoughts all of sudden when she heard charlotte scream "OH MY GOD MARJORIE IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU"

"oh my god charlotte shut up!" autumn said looking charlotte straight in the eye.

"sorry, sorry" charlotte said walking out the door.

marjorie checked charlotte was definitely gone then walked over to autumn, "im so proud of you my love, i know you don't find it easy to open up to people"

"i love you" autumn blurted out. "oh shit" she thought to herself.

"autumn what was that?" marjorie questioned.

"uh- nothing, nothing!" autumn prayed see didn't hear.

"hmm okay then" marjorie said walking back to her desk.

~autumns pov~

autumn excused her self to the bathroom and when she got there, she was met with the mirror. autumn hated how her body looked. every little bit of it. she gently rolled up her sleeves to reveal her scars, she had gotten better with it over the last few months, but she still struggled with it.

she never wanted marjorie to know about this, she would blame herself and she didn't want to make marjorie feel like that, she already had enough going on.

she rolled her sleeves back down and walked out the bathroom, forgetting what she actually went in there for and headed back to the office.

"you alright my love? you were gone a while" marjorie said as she watched autumn walk back into the office.

"oh yeah-yeah im fine" autumn said trying to brush marjorie off.

"you sure? you don't seem it, talk to me darling" marjorie could tell something was off.

"honestly marjorie, im fine" she was starting to get agitated now.

"if you say so" marjorie said and contined with her work.

as marjorie and autumn lay in bed that night, when marjorie thought autumn was asleep she whispered quietly to her,

"i love you too"
