Love (Jardougall)

Cuddles and tickles

Tay POV

"Jenna?" I asked, rolling over on the couch to face her.
Her eyes were closed, she was asleep, but was she dreaming? I didn't particularly want to find out seeing as she looked adorable curled up in a little ball with a few strands of hair over her face.
Subconsciously I moved to tuck them behind her ear, trying not to wake her up.
     Obviously I'm no good at this lesbionage thing.
     "Tay..." she mumbled sleepily, "Wha' time's it love?"
     "Well, let's say we'll definitely be late for school, love." I mimicked, smiling when my girlfriends eyes shot open, panic on her face.
"Shit, shit, shit, shit..." she cursed, until her eyes travelled towards the clock on her wall, "You little bitch!"
     My health was on the line as I hurriedly attempted to escape the angry Aussie charging after me, trying to avoid all her furniture.
     After a few minutes of this I collapsed due to exhaustion.
     Merely moments after that, Jenna was on top of me, tickling my sides as we rolled around on the floor.
     "I...h...ate...y...you!" I managed to force out through my giggles.
     "No you don't," retorted Jenna, tickling fiercer than before, "You love me Tay, don't deny it. Say you love me and I'll stop."
     When all I could utter was childish squealing and uncontrollable laughter, my girlfriend only tickled more than I thought humanly possible.
     "St...st...st...stahp! Jen...Jenna plea...please." I rolled violently, trying to avoid her hands but sadly failing.
     "Love me, love me. Love me, love me." she chanted.
     "I...lo...ve...you."

Jenna POV

My heart soared through the roof, knowing that even though I had forced her to say it, her words were genuine. Instead of continuing to torture Tay, I wrapped her in a big hug and roll onto a rug, wrapping us up in it.
"Okay, I'm serious this time, we'll be late." she laughed.
"You know Jenna, she's right." came a voice from the door.
"Mum! What are you doing here?" I gasped, scrambling out of the rug with Tay not too far behind.
"I wanted to know how my daughter was doing and if anything had changed. It appears something has."
My mouth went dry with fear. Neither of my parents knew I was a lesbian, so I had no idea how they'd react to me having a girlfriend.
Tay glanced at me, then saved my awkward life.
"Hello Mrs McDougall. I must say, your daughter is the most caring and sweetest woman I have ever met. She's helped me through times where I've been unsure about myself and respects me being a lesbian."
"Ah yes, Jenna is very accepting of anyone who is part of the LGBTQA+ community. Has she come out to you or is she still hiding in the closet?" my mum asked, causing my jaw to drop.
     "You knew?" I exclaimed.
"Oh please honey, I'm pretty sure I knew before you did. Remember Amelia? It was so adorable that you had no idea you had a crush on her. All you thought your feelings were was a great friendship, you never shut up about her. To me it was obvious," she turned to face Tay whilst I stared at her, gobsmacked, "Will your girlfriend join us for dinner tonight?"
     Tay looked at me, so I nodded vigorously.
     "Of course Mrs McDougall, I'd be honoured." she answered.

Tay POV

This was FUCKING STRESSFUL I SWEAR TO GOD I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE FUCKING STRESSED IN MY FUCKING LIFE ARGHHH FUCK!
Although Jenna's mum seems cool, how do I know she'll react well when she finds out my personality? What about her dad? What if they think I'm not good enough for Jenna? I mean, I still don't think I'm good enough for Jenna, so why would they? Oh god, oh god, oh god, oh god I'm freaking out!
Tay, calm down, just breathe, it's fine, all you need to do is breathe!
     Right, flannel, t-shirt, jeans, combat boots and my leather bomber jacket.
     I mean, what's the worst that could happen?
