A Boyfriend
Marlene shut her bedroom door behind her, turning to Dorcas with a smile.
"I can't believe you're here."
Dorcas laughed, "Well we did plan it."
"Yeah, but", Marlene shrugged, "Thought my mum would figure us out or something beforehand."
Dorcas took a step forward, and grabbed Marlene's hand, "Well, she didn't."
Marlene grinned, pulling Dorcas over to her beanbag seat and beginning to snog her.
Marlene climbed onto Dorcas' lap, Dorcas wrapping her arms around her.
A knock then sounded on the door.
"Marlene!", her mum called from the hallway, handle already turning, "I made you girls some squash."
"Fuck!" Marlene huffed, quickly clambering off Dorcas and skidding to the other side of her room just as the opened.
Her mum glanced at her disapprovingly, "We agreed, the door stays open."
"Right, I forgot", Marlene smiled, grabbing the two glasses and setting them down on her night stand, "Thanks for the squash, mum."
Her mother did not take the hint, and instead sat down on Marlene's bed.
"So what are you two chatting about?"
"Stuff", Dorcas shrugged.
"Y'know school, boys, the usual. Can we get back to it mum?"
Her mother tutted but stood up and made her way back the door. She quickly turned to Dorcas before leaving.
"I hope she's telling you all about her potential boyfriends, because she won't tell me a thing."
"We're not talking about my boyfriend, mum!"
She turned to Marlene in surprise, "You have a boyfriend? Oh that's great!" She pondered for a moment before questioning with a frown, "It's not James Potter, is it?"
"Ugh, no! Can you leave now?"
"I'm going", she laughed, turning back to Dorcas quickly, "Just come find me if you need anything, dear."
She left the door wide open behind her, walking back downstairs. Once her footsteps had fully retreated, Marlene shut her door once again.
Dorcas smirked, "You have a boyfriend, do you?"
Marlene laughed, rushing back over, "Absolutely not!"
