The Oasis and The Island

Chapter 17 - Heart of Gold

In the next morning on their executive suite, Jennie woke up with Lisa wrapped around her. She was laid on her side, with Lisa attached to her back. She let out a long breath, thinking about the events of the last night. She liked the whole seduction thing, but hated all the teasing. Her thoughts about Lalimario changed drastically. Jennie didn't keep her in a pedestal anymore. Maybe she worked only on her fantasies, but not in real life. In real life she was much happier with Lisa. She could not believe how she managed to find a woman like her. Or how a woman like Lisa would fall in love with her.

She had spent months denying her feelings for Lisa, but after that night when went physical, things got a lot blurrier. So much, that was hard to really understand what she was feeling. And even more hard to understand that Lisa was feeling the same. And even after all the talking and reassuring, she caught herself doubting the reality she was living in. And sometimes she felt like it was just a dream. After the nightmare caused by her break up with Sowon, it seem impossible for her to feel happy again. Alone with her tiny human. And not only she was able to feel happy, but to feel the happiest she has ever been.

And every day Lisa showed her how much she cared. Every day she made Jennie's fears to tumbling down. She even got her father blessing in a record time. None of her previous girlfriends got in her father good graces so fast like Lisa. Jennie was not sure why, but she imagined it had something to do with Lisa's up front personality. Her father had spent most of his life dealing with liars and people trying too hard to be something they were not. But that was never the case with Lisa.

"Are you awake, Cupcake?" Lisa mumbled behind her, taking her out from her thoughts.

"Yes," Jennie pulled one of the Lisa's hands and gave it a kiss. Lisa used her other hand to rub Jennie's belly. The act was becoming natural for her. "How did you know?"

"Your breathe changed."

Jennie hummed in response. Lisa laid some kisses on her nape and rested her forehead on Jennie's head. She inhaled the scent of her shampoo.

"When it is your next ultrasound?"

"Next week."

"Can we know the baby sex yet? I'm kind of tired of this limbo. I want to know if we are having a boy or a girl."

Jennie felt her heart to skip some beats with Lisa saying "we". She never referred at the baby as her own. Never.

"Probably yes, but..."

"But...?"

"I don't want to know yet."

"You don't?" Lisa said with a very disappointment voice.

"I want the surprise. And it really matters if it is a boy or girl?"

"It's doesn't matter, but I want to know." Lisa let out a long breath. "And I never thought you of all people would like to wait."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because you are very curious, Cupcake."

"Well, now you're the curious one." She threw a pillow on Lisa's face.

Lisa grabbed the pillow and threw it back on Jennie. Jennie rolled to her back taking the pillow again hitting Lisa's torso twice before she crawled to the bottom of the bed carrying 2 pillows.

"That's so unfair!" Lisa said frustrated, taking a pillow and hitting Jennie's butt while she was escaping.

Jennie turned, still crawling and faced Lisa, pillow in hands "Why it's unfair?" She threw one pillow on Lisa's direction while she grabbed the second and advanced to where Lisa was hitting her head now. Lisa was distracted by the first pillow and was caught in surprise by Jennie.
