*swearing*

Later that day, as Rosa was packing her bag, Gina walked over to her sheepishly. "Hey Rosa," she said.
"Mmm, what do you want?"
"Still mad?"
"Yes Gina. I cant think why i might be," Rosa quipped sarcastically.
"Look, Rosa... i'm not great at apologies, I haven't had too much practise. But I know you and Amy aren't a thing."
Rosa stared at her. "What the fuck Linetti," she whispered menacingly. "You told Jake.... you made him think.... what the fuck."
"Listen. Rogers... it's complicated. It's because of him. I'm not allowed to say..." Gina broke off and bit her lip. "Rosa, please. we're on the same team and i am scared as hell right now. I really really need you."
Rosa felt herself melting and didn't know why. It was very unlike her. "Gines, hey it's okay. I know what Rogers can do - i'm just glad you didn't mean it. I am here for you, okay?"
"Can i come home with you tonight?"
Rosa hesitated. One night hanging out would be fine, surely? "Sounds great, let's go," she said, secretly relieved she wouldn't be alone, which she'd always pretended to enjoy.

*ONE HOUR LATER*

"Can I tell you, please?"
"Tell me what?"
"What Rogers said."
Rosa raised her eyebrow and topped up hers and Gina's  champagne flutes. She drank deeply, took a deep breath and nodded.
"I need to split Jake and Amy up."
Rosa tried to process this. "Right.... so you created drama. Makes sense. But..." she trailed off and considered everything she knew. None of it added up. She had to get everyone fired, and one person killed, but Rogers wanted Amy and Jake split up.... why?
"I felt awful. I make drama a lot but i care about them, Rosa."
"We all do," she replied quietly. She sat and ran her thumb along her finger like she'd always done when she was sad, waiting for Gina to say something... but she didn't. She frowned after a few seconds and looked up.

"Gi-" she was cut off by Gina's lips pressed up against hers suddenly. She instantly tensed up... she couldn't, not with Gina. She should pull away. She really should pull away.... but instead, she found herself kissing her red headed friend back. She should really push her away... grab her shoulders and push her back... but instead she found her hands running through Gina's auburn locks. She should really say she couldn't... tell Gina to go... but instead she found her mouth kissing Gina as intensely as she could, drinking in her friend's delicious scent and soft lips. She had wanted this for so long. Fireworks erupted in her stomach and suddenly her doubts all disappeared. This was right, this was happiness. She wanted a little bit of happiness over none. When they finally broke apart, it was only to catch their breath, and then their lips collided again, locked together as if they were designed to be one, like a puzzle. Rosa smiled against Gina's lips and felt a small tug at the top of her shirt. She smiled again and raised her eyebrow. Maybe tonight would be quite a lot of fun...
