CHAPTER 8

The next day in the morning Gail was woken up by the noise of her phone ringing. She moaned to show that she was annoyed by whatever that was making noise, baby turn that thing off said Gail. The noise kept on going on and she slowly opened her eyes, and looked at her right side and noticed that Holly wasn't there. She slowly moved her hand to reach for her phone and answered it.

G: What!

S: Sorry did I wake you up?

G: What do you think, it's early in the morning Steve what do you want.

S: Where are you?

G: You woke me up to ask me that, bye Steve I am going back to sleep.

S: Fine just tell me where you are, Chris and Dov have been trying to reach you, they have been worried saying you didn't come home last night.

Holly entered the room with two cups of coffee in her hands and put them on the side bored, she joined her girlfriend in bed and brushed her feet with Gail," your feet are cold "said Gail quietly so that Steve wouldn't hear.

S: whose feet are cold?

G: Will talk to you later Steve.

She hang up and put her phone on the side bored and looked at her girlfriend who was reading something with a cup of coffee in another hand, "morning" said Gail in her sleepy voice. "Morning" said Holly looking at where Gail was and placing a light kiss on her lips.

"Who was on the phone "said Holly while reading her book;" it was Steve asking me all these stupid questions"." Oh gosh doesn't he know that Gail needs her sleep on her day off" said Holly in her sarcastic voice. "Very funny said Gail" as she positioned herself back to sleep."At least drink your coffee before it gets cold".

After 4 minutes of tossing and turning she finally sat up and said" I hate it when people wake me up early in the morning, now I can't sleep" said Gail as she reached for her cup of coffee, lucky for her it was still warm. "You call this early, it's almost 12:00" said Holly as she puts her book and her empty cup on the side bored. She lightly kissed Gail on her check and slowly moved to her lips and pulled away and said" if you want more get up."

"Nice try but I am not getting up, it's too early for me to get up and there is nothing you can do to change that" said Gail as she pulled the blankets back up. "Fine said Holly as she walks away, she dropped the shirt she was wearing on the floor leaving only pants. She turned her head only facing Gail and said" I am going to have a shower you are welcome to join".

Gail bite her lower lip smiled to herself and said" you are lucky that you are so dam sexy", then she jumped out of bed and followed Holly in to the bathroom.

Five hours later they were at the batting cages. Gail didn't want to go, her plan for the day was to sleep almost the rest of the day, wake up in the afternoon and then maybe go to The Penny and have a few drinks and come back and sleep again.

Holly wasn't having any of it, first she trekked Gail in to getting out of bed and having a shower with her which was not bad because they ended up having more fun than she thought. After an hour later they were down stairs, Gail was wearing Holly's shirt which was oversize and one of her shorts, because all the trousers are too big for her.

Gail was trying to find something to watch on TV when Holly sat next to her. She stopped what she was doing and turned her attention to the person who sat next to her. She moved closer and put her hands around Holly

G: What are your plans for today?

H: Nothing really

G: That's fine with me.

Holly leaned in a place a quick kiss on Gail's forehead and stood up.

G: Where are you going?

H: We are going to the batting cages.

G: Who is we?

H: You and me

G: After what happened last time I don't think so...

H: Well last time was your first time, I bet you have improved.

Gail groaned and said, but today was supposed to be my stay at home day, besides I don't have anything to wear.

H: Will drop by your place so that you can change, I will let you drive and chose which car.

G: Fine let's go.

The ride to Gail's place was short because Gail was the one who was driving, she took a short cut." All this time you didn't say anything, letting me taking a long way to your place" said Holly with her arms crossed. Gail smiled to herself and bites her lower lip then said "that's because I love it when you drive".

Chris car wasn't in the parking so Gail thought he might have went to the hospital, as today was his day off as well. "Do you want to come up" said Gail as she steps out of the car. "Its fine I will stay here besides if I come up there with you we both know it's going to take longer"." Won't be long "said Gail and with that she was gone.

Holly was sitting on the passenger seat listing to Ellie Goulding when a car parked few spaces from where her car was. She recognizes the person because she has seen him at the Hospital before.

Chris got out of his car, and when he was locking it he quickly looked around and saw an Audi TT packed few places from where he was. In his head he was thinking dam that's a nice car. It was black and white with its windows tinted, he couldn't see clearly if anyone was inside. He thought about going near and checks out the car but again he thought it will be wired to just look at someone car so he made his way to his apartment.

He opened the door to his apartment and bumped in to Gail who was rushing out.

C: Hey...

G: Hey to you too

C: Where are you going?

G: Out

C: Hey come on talk to me, it's like you don't live here anymore.

Gail was one step from stepping out of the room when she stopped and turned around and looked at Chris, she closed her eyes and said "fine".

C: Are you going to the Penny tonight?

G: Will see you there tonight, I would like to chart Chris but I got ... to go

She didn't wait for Chris's answer, she just walked out.

Chris was pacing around the living room when he saw Gail getting in to the car he was looking at earlier on. She got in at the driver's seat and drove away, someone was in the passenger seat but he didn't see clear who was it.

Holly and Gail spent about two hours at the batting cages, Gail was not bad herself, and she managed to hit half the balls. Half of the time Holly was trying to teach her how to stand if she wants to hit the ball but she just wouldn't take her hands off Gail.

"Hey babes what have you got anything planned today" says Gail, "I was planning on going back home but it looks like you have something on your mind" said Holly.

H: What have you got planned

G: How do you feel about coming to The Penny with us tonight?

H: Who is us?

G: My friends, I know you I said I wasn't ready to come out yet but how about (she struggles to get this words out but she did) I introduce you as my friend.

H: am... I am not sure about that, I don't even know your friends

Gail put her hands around her girlfriends' waist and said "come on honey it will be fun, just for few hours and we can go".

Holly pulled Gail for a kiss and said" fine few hours", and then she continued kissing her." Do you want to go and get something to eat while you tell me what to say to your friends?"
