Who Knew

Chapter 6

The next morning Lea slowly woke due to the bright sun rays piercing through the windows. She rubbed the sleep from her eyes and slowly sat up. She looked around and smiled softly at the sights around her. Everyone was fast asleep, Jonathan and Becca were on the couch with their backs to one another. Darren and Chris were sprawled out on the floor, Chris head was resting on Darren's lower back and they looked like the letter 'T' to Lea. She couldn't help but giggle at the sight, she looked beside her and saw Dianna fast asleep and looking so peaceful. Lea smiled and slowly passed her hand on her cheek. The blonde was stunning, there was no denying that. Lea stood up and quietly entered the kitchen and grabbed the camera resting on the counter. She tip toed back over and began taking pictures of her friends. After a few shots she went back to the kitchen and made a hot cup of coffee. When her coffee was finished brewing she put on her large comfy sweater and her slippers before slipping outside to the side porch. She didn't notice but the cold breeze from outside hit Dianna and woke her from her slumber. She glanced around and couldn't find Lea. She got up putting on a sweater and slipping on her shoes. She smelled the amazing aroma of coffee and went into to kitchen to pour herself a cup. As she took a sip she looked to the right and saw Lea outside on the porch. She grabbed a hat that was laying around and opened the door to the porch. Lea looked over and smiled when Diana stood right beside her against the railing.

"Morning."

Dianna smiled, "Good morning." She held out the hat she had in her hand, "Here. It's cold."

Lea smiled and set down her coffee mug, "Thank you." She put on the hat and grabbed her mug once more.

"Did you sleep okay?"

Lea nodded, "Yeah, great actually. You make a great pillow Ms. Agron."

Dianna chuckled, "I'm glad I could be of good use to you."

There was comfortable silence that fell between the two as they enjoyed the view of the now frozen lake in front of them. Lea always enjoyed moments like these with Dianna, they weren't awkward or uncomfortable. They just would stand there and enjoy each others company.

She smiled and looked over at the blonde, "Would you like to talk?"

Dianna glanced over at her then back at the lake as she nodded, "Yeah sure. We can talk."

Lea took a sip from her coffee then began to play with the rim of the mug, "Well obviously there's no denying there is tension between us."

Dianna couldn't help but smile, Lea always wanted to be so 'adult' about these conversations instead of being blunt and honest. Dianna on the other hand didn't really care and knew it would throw the brunette off which always entertained her.

"I think you have deep feelings Sarfati."

Lea's eyes went wide and her jaw fell open, "I-uh. Well I..Um. Well so do you!"

Dianna laughed out loud at the immature response, Lea pouted and lightly shoved the blonde, "I'm sorry to laugh, but that was funny. But if we are being honest. Yes, I do."

Lea took another small sip of her coffee, "I thought you said you were over me."

"In a way yes. When I said I was over you, I meant that I no longer always thought about you and what we could of been. Every time your name was brought up, I would start thinking about you, about us. When I decided I needed to stop feeling like that, I realized my happiness mattered the most. So now I know I can be happy on my own, what happened with us happened. There's nothing that will change or erase that but it doesn't mean the future is hopeless either."

Lea nodded slowly taking in everything she was saying to her, "Okay. I understand."

Dianna leaned over a bit, "That doesn't mean I still don't want to give us another shot however."
