Chantell was eagerly awaiting the arrival of her friend Jalessa from Michigan. They had been planning this get together for months now. The two of them were going to take a trip to Corpus Christi for the weekend to just kick back and relax. This was going to be a great weekend for both of them. Jalessa and Chantell had been best friends since junior high school, high school and went to the same college too. They were like sisters sharing their lives together along with their life experiences.
It was no surprise to Chantell that Jalessa took her coming out as a lesbian well. Chantell never did enjoy the dates she went on with guys much. Secretly, she had these sexual fantasies of being with Jalessa, but never did express them to her. In the back of her mind she always wanted her as a lover as much as her best friend. So, she decided that this would be the best opportunity to let her feelings for Jalessa come out.
Finally, she could see the people arriving from the plane and anxiously waited for her best friend to come through the tunnel. At first, she didn't notice Jalessa coming towards her. Then, as she looked closer she made out the face of her friend. Her mouth opened in surprise and when she realized she was staring she quickly closed it. It was a startling surprise; Jalessa was dressed as a stud. This was not possible, she said on the phone that she had something new to show her, but she never would have thought of this.
"Jalessa," she called, "it's me, Chantell, over here."
The smile that spread across her lips made her so happy, that she ran towards her to give her a hug. They embraced lovingly for a few minutes and then made their way to baggage claim. Chantell couldn't take her eyes off of Jalessa's new change.
"So how was our flight?" she asked nervously.
"Oh it was cool, but the flight attendants kept calling me sir the whole time," she laughed.
"So, what's been going on with you? It sure looks like you've been doing well. The last time we talked you had just gotten out of a bad relationship with Terri right?"
"Yeah, it just didn't work out with us. Right now I don't want to talk about that, I'm still not over the hell she put me through" she explained while trying to hide a stray tear.
"Good, because I have better and more pleasant things I want us to get into this weekend" and she smiled and took Chantell's hand in hers.
Chantell couldn't help but smile at what she thought that implied. It was going to be one interesting weekend indeed. They had found Jalessa's things and headed for the rental car to leave. Chantell found it hard to keep from staring at Jalessa. She really did look amazing dressed as she was. On the drive to the hotel Chantell was nervous about sharing rooms with Jalessa now, she wanted to come out and ask if the new look was permanent. So, she just came out and asked her.
"Jalessa why are you dressed like that and the hair, I mean it looks great, but is there something you need to tell me?" she blurted out.
"I was wondering when you were going to ask me that question. Yes, Chantell it's permanent. I'm out of the closet. I just didn't feel good trying to hide who I was inside anymore. I always knew that I was into women, but when you told me your secret I felt that I could do the same. So, I wanted to let you know first."
Chantell's face lit up and she began blushing. Her heart felt full and she was really overwhelmed by the compliment Jalessa had given her.
Finally, they arrived at the hotel and stopped at valet parking in front to allow the bellmen to help them with their bags. Then went in and walked up to the desk and immediately Jalessa took charge. Chantell was stunned into silence.
"Hi, do you have a reservation for Chantell Donald and Jalessa Darton?" she asked.
"Yes ma'am here you are. That was two suites correct?" he said.
"Yes, but we would like to change it to one suite please." she replied.
"No problem, that can be arranged ladies."
After he changed the reservation, he handed them two keys and sent a bellman to help them to their room. Chantell was nervous in the elevator ride, but Jalessa, noticed her demeanor and took her hand and squeezed it for comfort. She felt heat rising inside her body unexpectedly.
