Girls Talk [Girl x Girl]

Chapter Thirty-Six - My Hero

A/N

I'll be updating more than usual for the next week as I start University this weekend! So, uploading will be pretty random.

Alsoooo sorry for the next few chapters being pretty short, but I'm compensating for that with more regular updates! 

Once again, thank you for reading, voting and becoming fans :)

Your support means a lot <3

I zipped up my backpack after mentally confirming that I had everything I needed, and then my phone buzzed again, with a message from Victoria.

Victoria- See you in three hours x

Kate- See you soon :)

Victoria- If my parents let me out of the house that is...

Kate- If they don't I'll be like batman and rescue from the whole situation, it'll be fine

Victoria- My hero

I locked my phone and then began to head downstairs with my suitcase, my parents smiled when they saw me.

"Isn't your art competition soon?" my mother asked.

I had almost forgotten about it, given everything that was going on, and every Victoria-related thing that was going on.

I nodded.

"We'll come up to watch it," she said.

"You will?" I asked, and she nodded.

"Of course, Kate. Your art is important to us...we want to see how you've been getting along," my dad said.

I smiled. I was still pretty glad at how well they had taken the whole Victoria and I situation, but I didn't feel as good when I thought about what could happen if her parents found out...what would a girl be to do in that situation?

At least the university dorm was open for some of the holiday...

"Whatcha thinking about, chump?" my dad asked me, when my mother went off to finish cooking me my 'you've just got back to university' food survival kit.

It wasn't as if I struggled to cook things other than pasta...

"I don't know..."

My dad had a curious glint in his eyes.

"It's just, the whole Victoria thing,"

"Talk to me?"

"Well, her parents aren't the most...accepting people when it comes to that. They haven't even found out yet, but Victoria's sister almost told them everything and then we had to go through this whole thing of deleting all evidence that there was anything between us," I stated.

My dad laughed gently.

"What?" I asked.

"You two are like ninjas with this whole thing," he smiled, which prompted me to do the same. Though the anxiety was still somewhat there, it felt better to talk about the situation with someone other than Victoria herself, or Fox and Margo- who were still asking questions about 'how the hell we weren't together yet' . I still wasn't sure how we would be able to date while keeping the whole thing a secret.

"I guess so...I just sometimes wish things were easier. A few months back, we would barely have spoken the way we do now,"

"Well, isn't this progress?" my dad joked.
