I stood up. My knee was touching Nikkie’s. Eporner “I’m a lesbian too” she said, looking away. She was smiling her beaming white smile. I knew she would use it against me. Ill wash your clothes ready for tomorrow, and you can borrow a top of mine” she said smiling. But instead she sat up and looked at me “How?” I just started at her “What?” I asked completely confused “How am I beautiful?” she said, slightly smiling. I completely let go of her hand and just rested it on my knee. “Nikkie” I said slowly. …but before I could finish, there was a knock on Nikkie’s bedroom door. . . . . . . . . . … I kneeled on her bed, with one knee, one foot still on the floor, and leant toward her. I stood and went to walk “Please!” Nikkie said, reaching toward my arm.
