It's never really been a problem for you to identify as a woman who likes women. Your family is a little different. Your mother is actually a great supporter, but only she knows, everyone else in your family doesn't know this, your uncles, your cousins, your grandparents... But it's only a matter of time, especially when you're secretly dating a pop star.
You would have to spend the weekend at your family's vacation home, just another silly get-together, just to talk and spend time together. You definitely didn't want to leave your girlfriend, she was finally back with you after months of touring the world. And well, it seemed like a good idea for her to come along, claiming she was your close friend. Oh, very close.
And to be honest, things were going well, although it was still possible to feel the chemistry and the passionate look being exchanged between you. But no one really seemed to suspect, that's usually what they do, they pretend you're just close friends until you tell them otherwise.
The food had already been served, everyone was still at the table, just talking, talking about the neighbors' lives or how Uncle Ted lost his job for the third time this week. But nothing seemed that interesting, other than Olivia sitting next to him, she always looked beautiful. All the time, but now it seemed irresistible. It was almost impossible not to throw yourself at her right then and there.
And that brings you to the current situation, second floor bathroom. You could still hear voices downstairs, but nothing seemed as important as your girlfriend locking the door behind her, without letting go of your waist. Olivia looked in her direction, trying to contain that playful smile by biting her lower lip
"Dude, what is your uncle doing so wrong that he got fired from three jobs in one month?"
The word 'dude' sounded strange, you had been pretending for so long – two days – that you were nothing more than friends, that even in your moments alone you were treating each other that way.
