Prologue
Hello all! I just wanna mention that this story is going to be heavily based around my own experiences on vacation because why the heck not? And without further adieu...
Maureen had just done something a little bit out there, and uncalled for which wasn't particularly unusual for her. The drama queen had just auditioned for the role of Elphaba in Wicked on Broadway. She had been preparing her audition for weeks, and she felt as though she had nailed it. Now all that was left to do was come home to her girlfriend of 3 years, Joanne Jefferson.
"Pooooookieeee! I'm Homeeeeee!" Maureen sung as she flounced into their apartment.
"Hey Honeybear!" Joanne answered getting up from the couch in a much more chipper tone than she normally ever would. "How was your audition?"
Maureen was confused - normally her lawyer girlfriend was exhausted after a long day of work. Maureen eyed her skeptically "what's going on pookie, you're never like this. Also, I totally nailed it! I'm just not looking forward to waiting for the callbacks list."
Joanne grinned "I have a surprise for you!" she squealed almost out of character, and pulled an envelope out of her back pocket. The lawyer thrust the envelope towards Maureen. "This should take your mind off of the theatre!"
Maureen raised an eyebrow. "This isn't one of those live snake egg pranks, is it?" This was exactly the kind of trick that the diva KNEW her girlfriend would try to play on her.
Joanne laughed "No, it's much better, I promise."
Maureen shrugged, and cautiously opened the mysterious envelope. She pulled out two tickets - airline tickets with the destination of Ft Myers, Florida. The drama queen gasped and threw the tickets in the air squealing. "No WAY we're going on VACATION together, Pookie? You could never get time off! This is so amazing, we get to spend time together!"
In her excitement, Maureen knocked Joanne off of her feet in a tackle-like hug and started making out with her. Joanne appreciated the attention, smiling into her girlfriend's kisses.
"Maureen?" Joanne gently ended the affection. "Don't you want to know where we're going? And when?"
The diva helped her girlfriend up "Of course I would!"
"Well," Joanne started leading the drama queen to her computer "It's an island called Sanibel and I used to go there every year with my family when I was a kid." She clicked a few different buttons and pulled up images quickly. "Here's the condo complex that we're staying at! It's called Blind Pass and it's beautiful!"
She scrolled through images of a kidney-shaped pool, beautifully decorated units, a bayou, and a beach with a beautiful sunset. Joanne pulled up a map of the island and zoomed in to Blind Pass Condos. "See? Here's the condos, and here's the bridge over the bayou! And THAT is the beach! OOO and you can find amazing shells there and -"
Maureen cut her off. "Jo, it looks amazing, I can't wait to go with you." And she kissed Joanne again.
Joanne smiled. "Mo, there's something that I forgot to mention to you," Maureen perked up "we leave tomorrow morning."
The drama queen's eyes lit up. "OO that means I gotta go pack!" She dashed off to their bedroom and Joanne almost immediately saw random articles of clothing flying through the air like a cartoon.
"Please don't make a giant mess in there, Mo! And where did those tickets end up?"
