Ellie let herself fall down onto the bed, clutching at the pillow as she buried her face into it and soaking the cotton pillowcase with her tears. How could Jessica do this to her? After two years to just end it so cruelly, so suddenly. Ellie wished she could disappear completely, fade into oblivion and just make this numbing pain go away.
At 24, Ellie was small and cute, with naturally wavy light brown hair. She had beautiful greenish blue eyes like twin aquamarines gemstones of flawless beauty. Her pale and soft flesh made her slender four foot, eleven inch frame seem impossibly frail. Her full and firm breasts seemed much larger than their actual 32 C on her petite body, yet also seemed to somehow fit the whole beautifully. A somewhat flat bum descended into her slender shapely legs, culminating in a pair of small yet perfectly proportioned feet that would have been any foot fetishists dream.
After two years Ellie had finally gathered up the courage to tell Jessica about her foot fetish. Two years of wondering how she would react, two years of living with the guilt of hiding such a deep and powerful urge from the woman she loved. She had finally felt like she could not hide it anymore and had to come clean to Jessica.
It had all fallen apart. Jessica had been stunned at first , which had quickly given way to anger. Ellie had resented that her opening up to Jess had caused the latter to lash out. Tempers had flared. Harsh words had been exchanged . And in the end, here was Ellie, laying on the bed in the guest room at her best friend's Tricia crying her heart out at the pain of the loss she had suffered.
It had always been the same for Ellie. Everytime she gathered the courage to bring up her fetish for heels to a woman she had grown attached to, her admission was met with anything from ridicule to anger. Jessica had the latter reaction. She had felt betrayed that Ellie had hidden this from her for so long. The girl had tried to explain that she had been hurt and tormented so often that she was terrified to open up about it now, but Jessica had refused to budge. In the end Ellie had driven away, tears in her eyes to go and seek refuge with her friend.
Tricia had always been a rather odd person, but she had one thing going for her. She had always accepted Ellie as she was. The two had been friends since kindergarten and had shared so many secrets Even though Ellie had always felt that there was a little something different about her friend, even if she could not quite put her finger on it.
Her friend stood an average five and a half feet, with deep brown almost black hair. She had pale skin as well, but unlike Ellie's, it was the chalky white skin of someone who simply did not spend enough time outdoors, Her eyes seemed to be a deep deep blue until studied closely in bright light when they seemed to take on an almost violet hue. Ellie had never in her life sees eyes quite as striking as Tricia's
She and Tricia usually got along so well that sometimes Ellie regretted that her friend was an Incorrigible heterosexual. There had even been a time when Elle had wondered if it might be possible, but has never really put any serious thought into the notion.
Perhaps Tricia could have been beautiful , had she allowed herself the chance to be, instead her friend dressed in what could best be described as strange ceremonial garb which she would have imagined on a sorceress in a fantasy movie. Her home was filled with what Ellie would only have described as various knick knacks the like of which she had never seen anywhere else, the use of which she could not possible have begun to fathom
A light rapping tore Ellie from her sobs and she heard Tricia's soft measured voice from the other side of the closed door "Ellie, sweetie, are you all right? Do you need to talk about anything? Just let me know if you do" the heartbroken young lady lifted her head and turned to the door but did not reply. A few seconds later she sank her head down to the pillow.
There was silence for a few more moments and Tricia called out again "Well, in any case I am here, so do not be shy if you need to talk" The petite girl heard her friend's soft footsteps receding down the hallway outside the door. She rolled over in her bed and for what seemed like the thousandth time, checked the messages on her phone. Ellie let out a deep sigh, still no messages from Jessica.
Another soft tapping on the door awoke Ellie with a start and she realized she must have dozed off. Tricia's voice again called out to her "Come on sweetheart, you can't spend all day locked up all alone like this, it isn't healthy, at least come out and have a little bite to eat. I just finished making some pasta for supper.:
Ellie turned to the door and yelled out to go away, but Tricia's voice sounded out again "I have had enough of your attitude and it is really starting to weigh on me, now open up right now and let's talk about this, I am your friend and I want to see you happy."
Ellie rolled out of bed with what seemed like a herculean effort and took the three steps needed to cross the room, unlocking the door but not opening it. She returned to the bed and laid down on it as Tricia came to sit beside her. She laid a gentle hand on the heartbroken girl's shoulder and just stayed like that for the longest time, attempting to give comfort to her friend through a simple touch.
It was Ellie who ended up breaking the silence. In a weak, quasi imperceptible voice she spoke "You know, I really thought it could be different with her. I thought she might be able to understand the needs I have." Tricia let out a sigh and squeezed her shoulder a bit more firmly, listening to her friend.
