do it it's no big deal

"YOU DIDN'T PUT your phone down the whole ride. Is everything okay?" Liv asked, placing her keys on Cora's kitchen table. This is it, Cora. You gotta do it. It's no biggie.

"Yeah, everything's fine," Cora chuckled. Olivia knew something was up with her. Cora was quiet at her parent's house. "You know you can talk to me," Liv said calmly, not even looking at her because she wasn't worried.

Now Cora was convinced she had to tell Liv now or she'll be asking her for the rest of the night what was up with her.

"Okay, fine," Cora sighed. "You know that I've been out the closet since I was sixteen. Meaning that I've dated multiple people since then, right?" she started. Liv knew where this was going. An ex. "Okay, so it's about an ex-girlfriend," Liv asked.

Cora started to calm down when she noticed that Liv didn't look jealous or angry. She was genuinely curious about what was happening to Cora and simply wanted to understand.

"I just went out on like three dates with her but-" Liv interrupted the explanation, "What happened, Cora?" she asked.

"It's Tara. I dated Tara two years ago. I didn't know you two were related," she said in one breath. Liv didn't know how to take this, since it had never happened before, but it sure wasn't a big deal. "Woah," was the only thing Olivia said.

"I didn't know she was into girls."

"What?"

"I didn't know she liked girls. Women."

"That's all you're gonna say? That's your reaction?" Cora asked, laughing. Olivia didn't know if she should've reacted differently. "You expected something different? Jealousy? Anger? Come on, you would never cheat on me. I know you. And less with my cousin,"

Cora loved what Olivia just said. She would never leave her for anything in the world.

"I know, I just thought you'd react differently," she admitted. "Okay, let's go from the top. Oh my God! How could you! You dated my cousins two years before I even met you!" Olivia said sarcastically, waving her hands in the air, making Cora laugh. "I know, how could I," Cora said, walking closer to her.

"I love you, Liv,"

"I love you more, Cora,"

They kissed each other and smiled into the kiss. Cora pulled away first and they cuddled on the couch, turning on the TV. Olivia looked at the clock that was hanging on top of it and it marked 11:29 pm. "Can I stay over? It's kinda late," she asked. "Don't even ask. Just stay, whenever you want," Cora answered and pressed play to 'Mamma Mia 2'.

Once again, like the first time they met, they sang all the songs throughout the movie.

After the movie finished, Cora turned to look at Liv, who was sleeping in her arms. "Liv," she whispered, waking her up. "Come on, I'll lend you some clothes," Liv fell asleep again on the bed as soon as she got dressed.
