An: Sorry about this one I had no idea what to write and was honestly just going with it, hopefully it'll be a talk between Marj and Carly but I'm running out of ideas so PLEASE leave comments and suggestions!

Once Reece pulled into the driveway and parked, he double-checked. Carly was feeling alright after her near relapse. Of course, he didn't actually know about Carly's small relapse earlier that day, but Carly would never tell him unless she absolutely had to.

It was dark out. It was around seven and early spring, so it was still quite dark even early into the night.

Carky wanted to, no. She was going to tell Marjorie about Marie. She knew she would be accepting and loving after all one of her best friends was lesbian, another one bisexual and another unlabeled.  Though, she was still a little nervous. She wasn't too sure why.

Reece had to drive back to the nursery since he said he had left some books there, probably space ones. Reece loved space a lot and liked giving Carly lectures about it anytime she asked a simple question. Even if it wasn't space related he'd normally somehow like it to space. Carly didn't know how he somehow linked everything to space. It truly was a special talent.

Carly watched as Reece reversed out the drive way and drove off. The girl got her key out and unlocked the door.

"Mum? I mean- Marjorie!!" Carly quickly corrected herself, hoping Marjorie didn't hear the small mistake.

"I'm in the living room, my love!" Marjorie calls, when Carly walks in Marjorie is eating some ice cream straight out the tub.

Carly plays with the cuff of her sleeve before deciding to come out and say it.

"I kissed someone today!" Carly blushed as she said this. She wanted Marjorie to know.

"Really!? That's amazing!! Who was it?" Marjorie squeals.

"Her-" Marjorie cuts Carly off.

"Her..? She's a girl?" Marjorie asked confused.

"Yeah, why?"

"Nothing it's just you were always talking about boys!" Marjorie shrugs,"So! What's her name?! Tell me everything about her!!!" Marjorie moves over to let Carly sit beside her.

"Well... she's really sweet! Really tall as well! She says she gets it from her dad. Her name is Marie. I think you met her while I was in hospital?" Carly blushes.

"Yeah! She seemed nice, kinda like a female version of Reece but more softly spoken and more closed off. " Marjorie smiles happily

"Yep!" Carly chuckles

"Hey, Carly?"

"Hm?

"I heard you call me mum earlier.. I would be happy to call you my daughter." Marjorie smiles at Carly.
