"Leah! I'm home!" Jade called out as she closed the door to their apartment. Leah and Jade had been living together for little over a year now. They had been dating for three years, but when Leah had started college a year ago after finishing her ten month program to become an LPN they had decided to take the next step. Leah had moved in a month after she had started college. And ever since then things had been going great.
Jade had started a new job shortly before Leah had moved in and made more than enough money to support them. That way Leah didn't have to work and could focus on school. She had insisted for weeks that she get a job to help pay bills, she was sure she could get a good part time job working at a hospital. She argued that was the whole reason she had done the LPN program in the first place so that she could work and go to college. But Jade had forbid her saying she would have enough stress with school and didn't need to add stress from a job as well. So after a while Leah gave up but she did pull her weight around the house by cleaning and cooking, something she was more then used to doing. Leah didn't want it to seem like she was mooching off of her girlfriend. So Jade let her clean and cook for the most part.
"Leah? Where are you sweetie?" Jade called out as she hung up her coat. Usually Leah ran out eager as a puppy to greet Jade, but today, just like every day this week, she hadn't. Jade was starting to worry about her girlfriend, she hadn't been acting like herself lately.
Jade was a beautiful 31 year old woman. She had shoulder length dark brown hair, brown eyes, mocha colored skin and a well shaped body that Leah could hardly keep her hands off of. Jade was 5'8 and had one of those personalities that made have to love her. She was a shy person when you first meet she will quickly become your best friend and one of the funniest people you know.
She walked though their two bedroom apartment heading for their bedroom. She pasted through the livingroom which was simply yet tastefully furnished. A cream colored couch sat against the wall across from the tv. A lazy boy was pushed into a corner by the windows and a coffee table sat in the middle of the room in front of the couch. Pictures decorated the walls and a clock hung over the mantel. She walked down the short hall passing the smaller bedroom that had been turned into an office before she came to the master bedroom. In their king sized bed, under the midnight blue sheets was Leah, acting like she was asleep.
"Leah , why are you in bed? Are you feeling ok?" She asked as she sat down on the edge of the bed.
"I'm fine. Just leave me alone." Leah muttered and rolled over. Leah was young girl only 21, she had black hair that just brushed her shoulders, caramel colored skin and honey brown eyes. Of course that wasn't her real eye color, she wore colored contacts which Jade always said was unnecessary. Her real eye color was a dark brown so dark it was almost black. Leah was 5'5 with a slim figure and when she's with Jade she had to look up at her which she loved. She was a fun loving, bold, sometimes hyper girl that was reluctant to truly take her place in the adult world. Although she was a responsible woman that always took care of business she rarely hesitated to revert to her child like behavior. Which sometimes caused Jade to have to act more like Leah's mother then her girlfriend, but she didn't mind since it didn't happen often or for long periods of time.
"Leah, baby, talk to me. What's gotten into you lately?" Jade asked her voice full of concern. Leah just pulled the covers tighter around her. Neither one of the women were big talkers when it came to their emotions or when somethings bothering them, but it was something they were working on.
Jade sighed then said in a firmer tone. "Aaliyah, sit up and talk to me." That usually worked on Leah but not today. She pulled the covers over her head. "Damn it Jay! I said leave me alone!" She said in a bratty tone.
The older woman sat there a moment thinking then shook her head. She didn't like having to use force, but sometimes it was needed in order to get through to her girlfriend. She yanked the blanket off of Leah and pulled her over her lap. Leah gasped and looked back at Jade as she did that. She saw the look in Jade's eyes and knew instantly what was about to happen. "Jay! No!" She exclaimed but it was too late.
