"Jazzy." Cheryl sang as she whispered to Jane to wake her up. Jane's eyes opened at the sweet sound of Cheryl's voice.

"Hi." Cheryl giggled and kneeled down beside the teen's bed. She lined her face up with Jane's head which was still glued to her pillow.

"You want some cuddles before you get up?" Cheryl asked and Jane let a small smile appear on her lips. She nodded her head and Cheryl got up from her kneeled spot.

"Where are you going?" Jane asked as she watched Cheryl get up and walk over to the bedroom door.

"I'm gonna go get Kimba," Cheryl said it as if it wasn't obvious. The teen exchanged curious looks with Cheryl, not understanding what she means.

"I wanted to cuddle with only you," Jane mumbled, becoming insecure about her childish words.

"Oh," Cheryl smiled widely and then found herself joining Jane under the warm duvet. The teen could tell that Cheryl was being very cautious of not getting too close and just took matters into her own hands. Jane laid her head on Cheryl's shoulder and put Cheryl's arm around herself.

"Have you finished the painting?" Cheryl asked out of curiosity, even though that Christmas is a whole month away.

"I'll finish the sketch today," Jane informed Cheryl, making her frown.

"Okay.  Me and Kimba are having a date night.  Maybe you can come along with us." Cheryl looked down at Jane.

"Yeah, but I'm gonna let you guys have the night. You can do something romantic with Kimba and I can just chill out." Jane told Cheryl and looked up to meet her eyes.

"You say 'chill out' as if you need a break from us." Cheryl jokingly said before giggling.

"Maybe I do," Jane mumbled and Cheryl playfully slapped the teen's arm. Jane flinched, making Cheryl giggle.

"Rude," Cheryl said and rolled over so that Jane could cuddle into Cheryl's chest. Cheryl wrapped her arms around the teen and let Jane relax into them.

Suddenly, Jane's stomach growled loudly, making both girls giggle, "Shall I make you some breakfast?" Cheryl asked, causing Jane to nod her head.

"Okay, you go wake up your mother and I'll start breakfast." Cheryl sat up and watched Jane walk across the hall.  Cheryl made her way downstairs and began making her girls' breakfast.

"Mum." Jane tapped her mother's shoulder and bent down to meet her face. Kimberley's eyes fluttered open and she smiled the second she saw Jane's bright face.

"Hi, gorgeous," Kimberley whispered back to her daughter and stroked Jane's cheek. Jane smiled and stood up to lay down with Kimberley.

"Mum!" Jane giggled as Kimberley took her daughter and swung the teen over herself. Jane felt Kimberley kiss all over her cheek and tried to get away. Kimberley laid herself half on top of the teen, still kissing her.

"Do you love me?" Kimberley asked, making Jane smile and lift her eyes to meet her mother's.

"Of course," Jane said and kissed her Mum's cheek. Kimberley smiled and laid them back down to settle into a cuddle.
