Author's note: This series is classified as lesbian sex, because the focus is the female protagonist's relationship with another female. There are some heterosexual components to the story, but I hope you'll let that slide. For this mini-series, I was inspired to go for a drunk dream-like narrative. Enjoy!

I'm alone in a new city, stranded because my plane couldn't leave. Facebook tells me she lives her now. It's late, but I text her, asking if she has a couch I can crash on.
It's been three years since I met her at the house party. I try not to dwell on that memory. But yea, that was hot. We hung out a bunch until graduation, but always as a group. Nothing more...
She pins a location downtown, a nightclub. The text says, "Let's dance. Couch is yours after." I take the subway. After two transfers, I make it to the club. My clothes smell like public transport. The bouncer lets me in on the condition that I change.
It's good I had extra stuff. The crop top and mini shorts replace my traveling clothes in the tiny club bathroom. I get the once over when I come out and they let me stay.
I walk through the crows, wondering if I'll recognize her. Then I see her. Her hair is shorter now, but still red and curly. She's sandwiched between a guy and a girl, dancing. Their hands are all over her. Am I jealous? Sure, maybe...
I go over to them. She slips out from between them to hug me. I almost go in for a kiss. She smiles teasingly at me with dilated pupils.
I dance alongside them for a few minutes. Nobody likes a fourth wheel. I go to the bar and grab a drink. It's sweet and sticky, but at least it's cold. The club is too hot with bodies.
I bump into a girl. Her smile is open and attractive. She gestures towards the balcony and mimes smoking. I follow her. The breeze outside makes us both happier.
She smokes as I sit next to her. When she says something, I have to lean in to hear her. Music is loud, even outside. Her breath tickles my ear.
Then I lean in and kiss her. Her tongue is cold inside my mouth. It dances with mine for a minute. She asks for my number and gets it after another kiss.
Once we're back inside, I lose sight of her. But no matter... My red is where I left her - same guy, different girl. I replace the girl easily. Now she's backing me, my hands on her waist.
She turns around to tell me the guy's name. I nod politely. He's gorgeous, out of my league and not the reason I'm there.
