A Webster Walks Into A Bar - Part 2
Okay, so I'm just gonna post all the chaps for this fic so far up so that people can read everything that's there so far. I'm not gonna be able to update either of my fics for a while though because I'm crazy busy this weekend but I'll try my best for sometime next week.
Enjoy :)
Part 2 - In Which A Handbag Falls Over
The girls eventually stumbled through the door to Sian’s flat, the blonde having to once again right the other girl so that she didn’t fall flat on her face. Afterall, Sian thought to herself, it’s much too pretty a face to get hurt. She then shook her head in frustration at the thought, she really had no idea what was going on in her head. She’d never even had the slightest inclination before of being attracted to another girl but with Sophie she felt, I dunno, right.
She was brought out of her reverie when she noticed that the girl in question started to wander out of the hallway and into the lounge. The walk had served to sober them slightly and Sophie moved around the room curiously, investigating all the things that belonged to Sian with a cheeky smile on her face.
Sian followed her into the room but went through to the kitchen area which was separated by a half wall, allowing for her to keep an eye on the brunette circling her lounge. “Do you want a coffee?” Sian asked reaching into a cabinet for the jar.
Sophie hadn’t seemed to hear her though stating, “This place is amazing!” She had now collapsed into what felt like the most comfortable chair ever, feeling less giddy from the effects of the alcohol but there was this other feeling there as well. She couldn’t quite put her finger on it, almost like, excitement? It had been there nearly all night since she’d started talking with Sian but on being offered a place to stay at Sian’s it had intensified somewhat.
Sian. Sophie thought she’d never heard of a more perfect name. She shook her head (much like Sian had done, though she didn’t know that) and couldn’t help but smile, thinking of the blonde that she could hear in the next room (and slightly see) shuffling about with mugs and the kettle. She’d been having these thoughts all night but didn’t know what to make of it, she liked guys didn’t she? Well, at least she had. After Will she didn’t know whether she’d trust another man ever again. This line of thought made her remember why it was she had gone to that bar in the first place and she had to hold back the tears and compose herself rather quickly as Sian came into the room, two mugs in hand.
“You didn’t answer so I figured I’d make one anyway,” Sian said handing over the mug.
“Thanks!” Sophie replied happily, putting back on the laughing, half drunk face that was there before hoping that Sian hadn’t seen.
Although she didn’t say anything, Sian HAD seen. In fact all night Sian had been watching Sophie, she couldn’t help herself. And although the brunette was acting all happy-go-lucky (which the alcohol might have had some blame for) Sian caught a glimpse every now and then similar to what she had just witnessed of what was going on underneath. The hurt in Sophie’s eyes... Deciding to try and lighten the mood Sian recalled that Sophie had mentioned something about working as a Dentist at some point in the evening.
“Oh yeah!” Sophie exclaimed as if it was something that she had been meaning to mention but just forgotten. “Y’know with kids, I’m a Paediatric Dentist.” Sophie started searching around in her handbag with the hand not holding the mug to try and find her card, God only knows why since she didn’t think Sian had kids or anything, but Sophie wasn’t exactly thinking straight that at the moment.
Sian smiled to herself at the thought of Sophie working with kids. She didn’t know why but she got the impression that Sophie would be excellent with kids. “That’s dead cool,” she told the brunette.
“Yeah,” Sophie said distractedly as she was failing epically to find any of the spare cards she normally kept with her, instead succeeding only in knocking her handbag over and spilling its contents on the floor. “Sugar!” she swore, causing Sian to chuckle while she dropped onto the floor to pick it all up.
“Two actually,” Sian told her, dropping next to her to help.
Sophie stopped her hurried shuffling about and raised her eyebrows at Sian, “What?”
“I put two sugars in your drink,” the blonde told her still chuckling to herself. “I hope you don’t mind.”
“Oh, yeah that’s fine,” Sophie laughed returning to shoving everything back in her bag.
Sian helped her and at one point they both reached for the same object, a lipstick of some sort, their hands brushing slightly. Both girls stopped and stared at their hands which hadn’t moved but were tingling where they were in contact with each other’s. After what seemed like forever Sian let go first, moving to grab something else that had fallen out of Sophie’s bag that looked like a small book. Brow furrowed she picked it up and examined it. “Is this what I think it is?” She asked Sophie who still hadn’t moved from where she was now gripping the lipstick.
Being knocked out of her daze Sophie looked at her and said, “Hmm? What?”
“This,” Sian insisted, opening the small book and flicking through it slowly.
Sophie realised what it was that Sian had in her hands and exclaimed, “Oh!” before trying to grab hold of it.
Sian playfully moved her arms so that Sophie couldn’t reach it from where she was sitting on the floor grinning at the other girl. “It IS what I think it is!” Sian smirked.
“Give it back,” Sophie demanded with her own grin, still attempting to wrestle it out of Sian’s hands but to no avail.
“No,” Sian told her, giggling at Sophie almost falling on the ground from her efforts. “It’s dead cute you carry this around with you.”
“It’s nothing,” Sophie said, finally succeeding in getting a hold on the book and Sian relinquished it reluctantly. “It’s just something that I’ve always kept with me y’know? Out of old habits I guess.” Sophie looked down at the little prayer book in her hands, it was an extremely dark blue colour with gold lettering and an inscription on the inside from her parents.
To our beautiful Sophie,
May God always watch over and protect you.
With all our love,
Mum and Dad xoxo
Sophie didn’t need to open the book, she knew the inscription off by heart. It was something that had gotten her through some of the hardest times of her life so far. Instead of putting it back in her bag she left it on the coffee table and packed the rest of her things in her bag. She knew all too well that the absurd joking and laughing on her part was just a front, that on the inside she was screaming out in agony at the heartache she was suffering.
Sophie looked up and noticed Sian watching her, “What?” she asked the blonde. “Do I ‘ave something on meh face or summit?” She chuckled half-heartedly.
“No.” Sian simply said with a short smile before moving closer and staring into those blue eyes. Sophie couldn’t help but stare back, it was like by just looking at her Sian was putting her under a trance. Those beautiful blue eyes...that thought again shook Sophie from her trance and she broke eye contact saying, “um--”
But Sian cut her off, not moving her gaze, “Soph,” she said in a voice that made Sophie’s stomach do a little somersault. “It’s okay y’know?” Sian continued. “To be upset about it. To cry.”
Sophie snorted and turned her head to the side, she didn’t want to get caught in that trance again for fear of never being able to break herself out of it. “I wouldn’t want to give ‘im the satisfaction,” Sophie said to Sian, trying to keep her front together, but Sian was having none of it.
“I can see you’re hurting,” Sian took another step closer, coming into Sophie’s personal space now still gazing intently at Sophie. “Just let it out,” she stated.
Sophie finally looked back at Sian and as soon as their eyes locked she couldn’t help herself any longer. It was as if all the things she had felt that evening combined with what Sian was saying to her now was too much to contain. With a single tear rolling down her cheek Sophie closed the remaining distance between her and Sian and crashed her lips onto the other girl’s.
At first Sian was slightly taken aback by Sophie’s actions, but like Sophie she couldn’t deny that everything that had happened between them so far had just been adding up and now, too much for her, Sian kissed Sophie back.
After a few moments they broke apart for air and stared at each other wide-eyed at what they’d done. Any remaining effects of alcohol that they were suffering from (which by now was not much after the sudden ‘sobering’ experience) was replaced by that ‘something else’ that Sophie had felt before, Sian now feeling the full effects of it too.
Sophie was waiting for Sian to say something, to shout at her or chuck her out. But when nothing came she edged her face closer again to Sian’s, this time the blonde closing the rest of the distance and kissing her slowly but passionately causing Sophie to melt and grab Sian’s arms with her own to stop herself from falling.
When Sophie grabbed her Sian got a thrill that she’d never experienced before in her life and moved her hands to Sophie’s waist, steadying her. The kiss got more heated with their mouths greedily trying to get more of each other, Sophie’s tongue slipping in causing Sian to moan.
That was it. Without breaking the kiss Sian pulled Sophie out of her lounge room and in the direction of her bedroom.
