In the back of Kelly's mind, she had known she was attracted to girls. Now eighteen, she wanted her best friend Grace to be her lover. It had taken one bad one night with a friend's brother for her to discover she wasn't into men. She'd pictured the face girl friend of hers to just to get off. It was enlightening to her but not always the easy road to follow.
In the present, Kelly and Grace had been friends for almost a month but Grace still didn't know about Kelly's secret; that she wanted her for more than just a friend. Grace sat in the computer chair in Kelly's room on her laptop, while Kelly was lying on the bed pretending to read the latest Cosmo magazine; she was actually reading a Playboy.
They'd been outside all day, until it began to rain and the humidity had taken over. They came inside into the air conditioning. Grace was checking her email and Facebook to see if anybody had left any messages. She looked over at Kelly with curiosity then decided to walk over to check out what held the other woman's interest.
It was no secret that Grace was out of the closet, she wasn't hiding who she was but hadn't dated anyone recently because she also liked Kelly. They had both been playing the same game without realizing it.
"I like last month's playmate better, her breasts were firmer, and nipples looked like they'd could take a good sucking," Grace said with no pretense about seeing the magazine.
Kelly eyes shot up, "I can, um, I was reading the article," she said before registering what Grace said, "Wait, you're, lesbian, you never said nothing, you don't even act it," Kelly added.
Grace smiled before she moved the magazine to sit down on the bed near Kelly, "Yeah well neither do you, up till about minute ago I thought you were straight," she looked around the walls of Kelly's room. She had noticed the music posters, her favorite NASCAR driver, cheerleaders of Dallas Cowboys, even though there were football players included but obvious now it was the girls that held her attention. The other side of the wall had concert posters and then a bulletin board that went all the way around the other three walls as though it had been made just for the room. Every thing that Kelly was into was represented on her wall, except the pictures that were hidden in her floor board so nobody who came in her room would see.
"My family knows, and a few friends at school, but high school's over now," Kelly rambled, " well there is one person, but she doesn't know I like her," Kelly finally said looking at Grace.
Grace looked back at Kelly catching that smile on her friends face, "Have you ever been with woman?" she asked.
"I have been into few strip clubs to the back rooms using fake id, I have seen strip tease and had lap dances," Kelly said little nervous noticing that she was wetter than she had been from reading the Playboy.
