The Unexpected

Jens pov

I'm sitting in the theater chair next to Leah. Eating my popcorn, sipping on my drink. Leah is eating sour patch kids and nachos.

An hour into the movie and I'm holding tight onto my own sweater. But I also realized how much I'm leaning towards Leah because of all the jump scares. It's a good movie though. Not gonna lie. But damn this shit is horrendous.

"Oh my gosh" I said to myself. I feel as if an intense part is about to happen so I buried my head into her arm and waited till I heard a scream so I'd know when the jump scare is finished.

"Jennifer you're missing out" she whispers. I shake my head and didn't say a thing. She moves her arm which I was leaning on so I looked at her but her arm went around me as if she wanted to make sure I was okay. Now that's sweet.

I covered my eyes with my hands but peeked through my fingers. I felt her playing with my hair which was lightening my mood.

After the movie finished, the lights turned on and she looks at me. "You watched like a minute of it" She says. "I told you already that I hate scary movies!! Be happy I came with you" I poked her and stood up. Her eyes went directly at my ass. Whoops.

She clears her throat and looks up at me. "Well yeah..thanks for coming. Wanna have dinner now?" She asks. "Not too heavy. Maybe some fast food?" I said. "Sure" She says and stands up.

We leave the theater and she drives to the closest Chick-fil-A. She also suggested we should eat it at her place...my dumbass agreed. No sex though. I swear.

"Nice place" I said after she let me into her house. "Thank you. Make yourself at home. I gotta feed my puppy." She says. "You have a puppy?! Wait..I wanna seee" I said. "Oh sure!"

I follow her to this little gate she has for her pup. It looks so cozy. She has a cream fluffy dog bed with all her dog toys.

"I put this gate when I'm not home just incase. She knows and is trained not to leave the house or anything. But she follows me around a lot so whenever I leave, I put her there before she tries following me out of the house."

"What's her name?"

"Sounds silly but her name is biscuit" she says. "Aw that's adorable!" I said and squat down in front of her cage. "You can take her out since I'm home now"

So I did. She's in my arms and starts licking my face like crazy. "She seems to love you" She says. "I already love her!" I said. I walked over to her couch and sat down and let her play and run across the couch, back and forth to me.

"That's enough biscuit. We're gonna eat" she says and carries her and placed her on the floor. She's too small to jump back up on the couch unless she wants to go through an obstacle course just to get up here.

"How long have you had her?" I ask as we began to eat. "Not too long. She was just born when I got her. Now she's almost a year old. Still a puppy to me though."

"Aww..She is too adorable. My daugh-darn mom would love a dog like biscuit!" I said. Close call. Almost said daughter.

"She is cute" Leah says and watches her play around.

My notification goes off on my phone. It's a text from my mom of Veronica sleeping while cuddling her stuffed bear. "I told her that you're the bear whenever you're not home" my mom texted me. "O M G. Too cute. Tell her I love her. I'm sorry I didn't get to call her tonight" I replied. It's kind of a bummer that I wont be able to talk to her when I'm out with Leah till I find the right time to tell her that I have a kid. I know people tell them straight up in the beginning but I didn't really have a chance to tell her. Now I just don't know when to tell her.

"Finished?" She asks me minutes later noticing my empty box. "Yup" I said and sipped my drink. She stands up and gets both of our trash. Then she later comes back and sees that I picked up biscuit again whose now on my lap. "Cute" She says and sits by me, facing me. I smile at the pup then looked up at her while holding up both of biscuits paws. "I wanna stay with Jen" I said with a voice that everyone uses on puppies. "Jen?" She says. "Oh yeah. Call me jen. That's my nickname"

"Oh alright. Jen" She says.

"Hm. She's so calm. Like she's playful but not crazy"

"Yeah..if she was crazy..I'd be crazy." She said and reaches for biscuit to pet her head as she was still on my lap. I noticed her ring on her middle finger. It's all sparkly. I held her hand and observed the ring.

"So sparkly. I love.." I said softly. "Thank you" She says. "You have pretty hands" I said. "Odd compliment but thank you" She says.

"For lesbians it shouldn't be odd" I said and looked at her. She smiles and tilts her head. "What's that supposed to mean?" She asks. "You know.." I giggled. I scrunch my nose and look away. "For someone who hasn't dated in a while, you seem to remember everything about being gay" she said. "Well of course."

"Do you remember your first kiss with a girl?" She asks. "Yes..horrible" I chuckle. "Me too..how about your second first kiss?" She asks again. "It was okay. Things got better as the relationship progressed." I said.

"Mm.."

"You?"

"Eh" she shrugs. "What do you mean eh? I've been telling you my answers!"

"Okay it was bad too" she said. "What why?" I giggle. "Because I just obviously haven't found the right one who could make my first kiss with them satisfying."

"Maybe it's you whose the problem" I tease her. "It most definitely isn't me." She said. "Mmhm Okay. Don't judge a book by its cover. You may be beautiful but maybe you just don't do it right" I said. She raises her brows and looks at my lips.

"I sweeear I'm not the problem.." she giggles. I guess it bothered her more than I expected. "Pfft..I mean I can show you" she continues. I blush and look down at biscuit. "You'd like that huh?" I ask. "Uh-Just trying to prove a point since you wanna be so bold about things when you don't even know the truth." she said.

I just kept petting biscuit without answering Leah. But she had enough. She took her out of my arms and placed her on the other couch. Then sits back by me, facing me and places her fingertips at my jawline. She leans in and kisses me deeply and slowly and I right away enjoy it.

It was amazing..

I could tell Leah isn't a bad kisser just by looking at her. I just wanted to mess with her mind. I did and also didn't think it would lead here. This took me back to my younger days..
