Lesbian stereotype: Softball *no offense*
Everyone in school was talking about sports season. Maya wasn't necessarily athletic but was gonna signup for softball. She was hoping to find some friends there. She made her way to the bulletin board and waited until it was clear enough for her to write her name down on the tryout sheet. Tryouts were Friday after school so she had 4 days to practice. The bell rang and she made her way to class. The day seemed to pass pretty quickly and she was home sooner than expected. After guessing on most of her homework Maya went to the park to practice. After about 10 minutes another girl showed up. She saw Maya and immediately waved. Maya waved back, confused.
"Are you trying out for softball too?" The girl set her stuff down next to Maya's
"Um yeah"
"Do you mind if I practice with you? I'm Riley by the way"
"Sure. Maya"
"Nice to meet you" Riley smiled. She was the perkiest girl Maya had ever met in her life.
"So, why do you wanna join softball?" Riley asked
"Umm you know. Just looking for some new friends." Maya replied "what about you?"
"Well I like the sport and I was also looking for some new friends too."
They practiced for 2 hours then Maya offered to take Riley to ice cream. Of course excited Riley loved ice cream so she accepted. Throughout the day they had learned quite a bit about each other. Maya learned that Riley's dad was Mr. Matthew's the crazy history teacher and her mom was a lawyer/owner of Topanga's bakery. Maya told Riley that her mom was a waitress at the Nighthawk diner. They also figured out that they lived relatively close to each other. They quickly became really good friends and it seemed as though they had been friend for years.
They arrived to the ice cream shop hand in hand after Riley imitated it because "that's what friends do" and Maya blushed more than she should've. Maya held the door open for Riley and they walked up to the counter.
"I'll have one scoop of chocolate on a cone" Maya ordered and turned to Riley "what about you?"
"Strawberry in a cone please with sprinkles"
"You would" Maya laughed
"I would what?"
"Get sprinkles. You're cute like that" At that Riley turned pink and moved her hair in front of her face to cover it.
"Two ice creams for the adorable couple" the man handed them their cones and both of them turned red but neither corrected him they just both walked away, embarrassed.
"So tell me Riley" Maya said once they had sat down and gotten over themselves "got any crushes at school? Any cute boys you like"
"Uh no I don't" Riley coughed "I don't like boys. I'm uh well I'm lesbian"
"Oh shit. Oh my god I'm so so so sorry" Maya apologized.
"It's okay Maya it's fine. How would you know" Riley assured her
"Well if it makes you feel any better so am I.
"Really?"
"Yup. Been gay since I was 12."
"Wow. I've only been out for a year." Riley said
"So how'd you do it? Like does your family care?"
"Oh no. I told my mom and dad when I brought my first girl home and they were super happy for me"
Maya smiled at that. "That's great. My mom always thought I was so it didn't surprise her when I told her I was."
"Well I mean I've only brought one girl home to them. But maybe, if you're okay with it, I can bring a second?" Riley asked nervously
"This is really soon. Like we just met a couple hours ago"
"I know. But you're so gorgeous and funny and in theses hours I've already got a crush on you."
Maya smiled "well so have I. So, let's go meet your family"
Riley got the biggest smile on her face and hugged Maya. They parted and Riley kissed Maya then realized what she did and let go. Before she could say anything Maya just kissed her back. They smiled at each other and walked out hand in hand on the way to Riley's house.
Thought I'd give these a try. I've been wanting to make them for a while.
Reveiw it up.
xx, Alice.
