Chapter 4

A few minutes pass before I am again able to think clearly...or, well, relatively clearly at least. I come out of my trance-like state to find the janitor giving me a very odd look as he mops Bean's floor.

"Err..." I mumble before sprinting out of the room at full speed. Once I reach the school's parking lot I plop down on the grass and begin to think.

Well...so I guess I like Victoria more than a friend... A LOT more than a friend. And I suppose this means I'm bisexual... Then again, I don't think I've EVER really liked a guy like this. Oh well, I have more important things to worry about now...like hanging out with her!

I let out a yelp as I realize that I'm going to be hanging out with Victoria in a few hours!! Well, it seems life has left me with but one option...

***

"You what?!?!" Julia asks over the phone, obviously a little surprised by my statement.

Julia is my older sister who has already gone off to college; if there is anyone I could talk to about this, it would be her. I know that Abby would be my best friend no matter what happened...but I can still see that conversation being extremely awkward. Julia understands me better than I probably do and could possibly know a thing or two about this whole 'doubting your sexuality' thing.

"Err...become extremely physically attracted to a new girl at school?" I say as quickly as I can. I hear a pause on the other end of the phone, but I'm positive that's its not one of disproval.

"Well now, that sure is something! Who is this girl anyway?"

I take a few moments to explain everything possible to Julia about Victoria.

Julia thinks quietly for a while. "Personally, I think you only have one option: go for that ass!" At this, my face turns bright red, which is a reaction that I'm sure Julia expected.

Attempting to garner a little payback, I ask, "Yeah, haha. So you know why I called you specifically?

I can imagine that Julia is still beaming as she replies, "Because of my superior wit, right?"

"No... I called you because I found your diary entries about Clara."

"Eeep!" Julia shrieks before immediately hanging-up. I just laugh; I had found out about my sister's infatuation with her college roommate a few weeks ago after going through a journal she'd accidentally left at the house. I couldn't really blame her; Julia had introduced us to Clara a few times, and she was sure a looker! Not anything like Victoria, but I doubt that ANYONE can compare to Victoria. Mmm...that ass...

My founds ringing brings me back down to Earth. I don't even bother looking at the caller ID.

I smirk as I answer. "Yes, Julia?"

"...I was going to mention it..........but how'd you find out?" she asks as quietly as possible.

"Found your diary, blah blah blah. So, now that we've gotten past the fact that we're apparently a family of lesbians (we can only hope for Katherine), what do you think I should do?!"

I hear silence for a while and presume that Julia is thinking. "Weeeeeell, all I've really done is creep around and spy on Clara when she's dressing, so I don't have too much experience in this field. BUT, what I PLAN on doing is getting her to like me as much as possible before springing my crush on her and simply hoping that it goes well. I suggest you do the same; just play it cool and charm her with your loving personality! Keep the flirting to a friendly level, and try to act as normal as possible, though. It took a lot of explaining for me to justify my Clara Panty collection I had going..."

"...erm, okay. Thanks; I think there was at least some good advice mixed in with all that creepy."

"Anytime, little sis! Oh, and Good luck with this Victoria girl; I can't wait to meet her when I'm back in town! But right now I think I'm gonna have to let you go, as I have some very pressing issues to attend to. Bye!!" As she hangs up I can only imagine what she is heading off to do to poor Clara. Suprisingly enough, my sister is an extremely popular and charismatic person; she has more friends than I could probably count! But, apparently, when she likes someone, she can get a little...obsessive. I'd prefer to never have to repeat some of the graphic things I saw in her diaries. All I can say is that she must like this girl a LOT, and we shall never speak of her diaries ever again.

...and now it's time to get ready to face Victoria. God help me...

I begin by walking to my house (only about a mile from the school thankfully) and taking out the trash. How did I remember this and why did I even bother? I have absolutely no idea, but it seemed to help take my mind off of the daunting task ahead. I head up to my room and put on a flatteringly tight Hollister shirt and some of my typical short shorts. I let my wavy hair run its natural course and lay off of the make-up; it can't seem like I made any sort of effort. All in all... I basically look the same as I did when I first got dressed this morning. Damn. Ah, well, I tried at least.

After getting dressed, I fish the paper Victoria gave me out of my old shorts. Gosh, even her handwriting is freakin' luscious! Being 2:30 right now, I have to be there by 4:00, when she wanted me to come over. I decide to spend that time relaxing as much as possible and eliminating any tension or stress. This plan goes great...until, like always, my mind runs a little astray.

I'm watching some Comedy Central... until my little Inner Pervert takes notice of a Victoria's Secret commercial.

"Hmm..." she muses. "Those panties would look great on Victoria. But...I'd still prefer her birthday suit, bar none."

My face immediately turns bright red with the mental image of a nude Victoria's long, slender legs, tight stomach, luscious, curvy-"

"AHH!" I blurt out loud in an attempt to push away the image. It's not that I didn't enjoy it; oh, HELL no! I just don't think I could face Victoria with that fresh in my mind...

Gathering myself together, I glance at the clock: 2:45!! Oh shit, I have to go!

I sprint to my with 1993 SAAB (it gets the job done, at least) and begin to drive towards Victoria's house.

What I'm in store for? Absolutely no idea...
