Your mother should know

The next morning

JO'S POV

"Where's mum?" I asked George who was sitting at the table in the kitchen, sipping his tea.

"She had to leave early." He spoke

"Oh." I said while sitting down.

I was still in my pyjama's.
I looked over at George who seemingly avoided eyecontact.

"I couldn't sleep last night." I spoke, breaking the silence.

George looked at me but remained quiet.

"I kept thinking about our erm...grocerie shopping thing..." i admitted.

"I loved it...what you did to me."

"I know it's wrong George, but I want you."

George balled his hand into a fist and squeezed, his jaw clenched.

"Please say something." i begged.

GEORGE'S POV

I wanted to tell Jo so badly how i really felt about her.
I've known this girl what, a week now? And i'm already falling for her.
I've gotten to know her, i mean we were after all always home alone together.
I had a choice: I either tell her or i don't.
But if i do what will be the consequences?

"Me too." I said after thinking long and hard.

"I want you too."

Eventhough Jo was just talking about sex and physical attraction, i was talking about being with her. I wasn't gonna say that yet though.

She smiled at me,oh that smile drove me crazy.

After sitting in comfortable silence for a couple of minutes she spoke:

"Let's go sit down in the living room and play some guitar or something."

We did.

We sat there for hours, talking laughing, getting to know each other.
The more time i spent with her, the more i wanted to be with her.
Living with her was heaven and hell at the same time.

It was about 4 o'clock now, Nora would be home in a little bit more than an hour.
Jo was laying with her head in my lap, i was playing with her beautiful long hair.

"Jo." I spoke.

"yes?"

"How about you and i go out for a drink sometime?" I asked.

"What like a date?"

I remained silent for a while.

"yes." i answered her.

"Only if that's something you'd like too."i said.

JO'S POV

Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god. George was asking me out on a date. An actual date.
If only my bloody mother didn't exist i'd have said yes in an instant but she does so that puts me in an uncomfortable situation.

God he's so sweet. I could just kiss him to death. He's playing with my hair, ocassionally stroking my cheek with his fingers.

You know what, fuck my mom. She took away my dad from me, so what if i take away George from her. I know we'd be great together, i just know it.

"I'd love to." I said.

I got up and sat myself on George's lap, facing him.

"I'd love to go on a date with you George."
