'Dear Journal,

So, tomorrow's Friday, and I have no idea what to expect. I can honestly say that for the first time in my life, I'm enjoying my Math class. Gabrielle's been helping me with my coursework, and we've had lunch together almost every day this week. She explains it so much more clearly then the teacher does, maybe it's because we're closer to being on the same level.

Gabrielle told me that the place she's bringing me to tomorrow is nice, and so I should dress up a little bit, which is fine… I love dressing up. I've looked through my wardrobe like 10 times already and I can't find anything that I want to wear. I don't see why I'm stressing, it's not like it's a date or anything. Just two girls going out for a nice dinner is all. Maybe I'll go shopping after my classes to try to grab something really quick. Well, wish me luck.

~K'


"Katie, what are you doing tonight?" Emily asked the next morning as the two were getting dressed for college.

"Just going out to dinner with Gabrielle, why? Is there a party or something going on?" When Katie didn't hear a response from her twin, she turned around to see Emily's jaw nearly sitting on the ground with her eyebrows up in her hairline. "What?"

"You said you're going on a date with Gabrielle?"

"No, I said we were going to dinner. It's not a date. Not everyone in this world is a big lezza like you, Ems." She noticed the younger twin holding back her laughter which made her a little angry. "Want to skip with me today? I really want to get a new outfit for tonight?"

"Hold on, Kates, you've got to be kidding me. I've been watching you two all week; she's courting you, like old-school style. And now you want to get a new outfit to impress her? She's as gay as they come, sis."

Katie could feel the anger continuing to rise. "Know what, just fuck off to college, I'll go by myself."

"Suit yourself; I was just trying to make sure you knew what you were getting into with her. She's nice and all, but she's not after your friendship."

By this time Katie had already tuned her twin out while she slipped into a comfortable skirt and a barely there tank top, she finished the ensemble with some black pumps. Her hand reached for her bag and she was off to shop for something to wear for her dinner with Gabrielle tonight.


Katie was trying on dresses in the third store when she heard her phone dinging in her bag, indicating she had received a text message. She opened up the purse and pulled out the phone. She found herself smiling down at the name before flipping the phone open and reading the message received, 'I hope you're not ditching class to get an outfit. I took the liberty of getting something for you to wear. It'll be delivered to your house, might be there already. ~G'

The mysteriousness of it all excited the twin. She quickly got out of the dress she had on and slipped back into her normal clothes, thanking the girl who was helping her on her way out the door. Butterflies were swarming around in her stomach as she got to her house to find a box sitting on the step. Katie found her name written on it and picked it up. She was so excited that she was struggling with the keys, and once inside she quickly slammed the door and started ripping into the box. Her jaw dropped as she picked up the material by the shoulders and held it up. It wasn't just a dress, it was an evening gown. It was made of a silky black material. The top had thick straps, but it was low cut… not as low cut as most of the tops she wore, but she would still get to show off a little cleavage. The bottom was a free-flowing and elegant.

Katie wasted little time and threw her clothes off so she could try it on. It fit perfectly. The top hugged her body as if had been made specifically for her, and the bottom hung loosely to the floor. Chocolate brown orbs noticed a pair of shoes still in the box, and also a little card. Her fingers opened up the card and she read it out-loud to herself, 'I thought you'd make this dress look beautiful. See you tonight.'

She brought the note up to her face and she could smell Gabrielle's perfume on it. It was fast becoming one of her favorite scents. She took out her phone and began writing a text to Gabrielle, 'Hey, thanks for the dress, you really shouldn't have. Still picking me up at 7?'

A few minutes later, she got a reply, 'How about I pick you up at half passed 4, and we can go for a little ride before we get ready for dinner?'

'A ride? What did you have in mind?'

'It'll be a surprise; I just need to know if you're up for a surprise.'

Katie thought about that for a minute, her thumbs hovering over the keys of her phone. She hadn't found herself smiling so much as she had in the past week, and so she was all for keeping it going. 'Sure, what should I wear?'

'Dress comfortable and warm. See you then.'

The twin closed her phone and looked down at the beautiful gown she still was wearing. It really was stunning. As she looked over at the clock on the wall, she realized she had wasted too much time already. She needed to get out of the dress and into some comfortable and warm clothes.


Katie heard a knock on the door at exactly half passed 4, and she found herself running down the stairs to swing open the door. Gabrielle stood there with a smile on her face, holding two motorcycle helmets, one of which was offered to the twin. Chocolate orbs opened wide, she'd never been on the back of a bike before, at least not a motorized one. She was hesitant, but she took the helmet, shouting over her shoulder than she would be back in a little bit before closing the door behind her.

She must not have been wearing the proper clothing because the moment they got to the bike, Gabrielle had taken her leather jacket off and had put it around her shoulders. When the girl turned around to mount the bike, Katie couldn't help but take a deep breath in. The smell of leather mixed with Gabrielle was enough to drive her a little mad. She took her seat on the back of the bike, setting her hands on the red head's hips. She felt Gabrielle laugh before her hands were pulled forward to wrap more securely around the new girl's body.

They both put their helmets on and the athletic girl turned around half way, "Hold on tight, I don't want you falling off the back." Katie could only nod her head and snuggle in. She had no idea how Gabrielle wasn't cold after giving up her leather jacket as she now only had a tank top on.

Katie felt like she was flying as they moved in and out of the streets of Bristol. They went near the college, and even to a few places that the twin had never been to before. She found that she felt comfortable pressed against Gabrielle's back, and her arms fit just perfectly around the girl's toned body. She let her palms press against the washboard stomach of the girl driving. Before she knew it, she found that her fingertips were tracing the midline of the girl's abs. Katie hadn't realized just how much her fingers were traveling until she brushed against the underside of Gabrielle's breasts. She felt the intake of the girl's breath and she lowered her hands back down to where they were supposed to be before muttering a 'sorry'.

There wasn't a response from the driver, she just continued on for another half an hour before they ended up back at the Fitch house. Katie hadn't realized just how long they were driving, until she had walked inside to notice she had less than an hour to get ready. Luckily for her she had laid her dress out nicely on her bed before she had dressed for the ride.

The water of the shower felt good running over her skin. The older Fitch couldn't help feeling nervous for the dinner that was going to happen in a little over 30 minutes. She quickly finished her shower and got ready. The last thing she did was slip into the gown, then into her shoes.

"Where the fuck did you get that?"

Katie spun around on her heal to see her twin and Naomi standing in the doorway with incredulous looks on their faces. "It was a gift."

"From the butch girl?" Naomi's blue eyes met up with the browns belonging to the older twin as she said this, and she instantly regretted getting in the middle of their twin war.

"Fuck off, you cow. She's not even gay!"

It was Emily's turn this time, "Look, Katie, I could care less who you're going with, I just don't want you to be surprised when she puts the moves on you. You obviously care about her, in your own way, so just… be careful, okay?"

"Yeah, whatever," was her response as she heard the doorbell ringing. She gave the pair a little waive over her shoulder as she made her way down stairs to the front door.

The moment the door was opened her eyes locked on with the hazel-greens belonging to the tall red head. Brown orbs moved down to the single red rose that was being offered to her. Her heart was swooning as she took the flower and immediately brought it up to her nose. It smelled wonderful. "You look stunning." Katie heard Gabrielle say.

"How did you know my size and everything? It fits as if it were made for me!"

"Lucky guess, I suppose. You ready?"

Katie nodded her head before she noticed what her friend was wearing. Where she was wearing a gorgeous evening gown, Gabrielle looked to be sporting a tux. Even though it seemed obvious that Emily and Naomi were correct in what they had said, Katie just couldn't accept that fact. It just couldn't be true. She was brought out of her thoughts when the new girl offered her arm to Katie, who took it without a second thought.

The pair arrived after Gabrielle stopped out in front of the restaurant to let the valet park her truck. Katie had never been treated so well by anyone, whether it was a date or a friend, in her whole life.

The two ate, and talked about anything and everything. Katie talked about her family, her sister, and even Naomi. It seemed like the more she tried to get information out of Gabrielle, the more she would distract her with another question that she felt compelled to answer. The Fitch ended up learning very little about the woman who was seated across from her.

"Care to dance?"

Katie was a little surprised by the question as the song was a slower one. She didn't quite see how she would be able to dance with anyone but a guy to the song, but she let Gabrielle lead her to the small dance floor anyway. They were the only two on it and all eyes were on them.

Karmina's song 'This Kiss' was playing quietly through the speakers:

I know we don't belong
Everyone says it's wrong
We come from different ways
So I tried to erase everything that I felt
That I felt

CHORUS:
But then you kissed me and suddenly I don't care anymore
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
But then you kissed me and suddenly I don't care anymore
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
From the KISS
From the KISS

My heart is getting loud
I'm trying to keep it down
I wish the world could hear
But I can't help but fear that they'll take you away
You away

CHORUS:
But then you kissed me and suddenly I don't care anymore
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
But then you kissed me and suddenly I don't care anymore
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
From the KISS
From the KISS

BRIDGE:
Palm to palm
Let lips do what hands do
They pray
Is it a sin
To do what we want to?
Don't care where we've been
Give me my sin again

CHORUS:
But then you kissed me and suddenly I don't care anymore
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
But then you kissed me and suddenly I don't care anymore
Something in me tells me you're the one I'm looking for
From the KISS
From the KISS

Katie felt her heartbeat increase as they moved along to the beat of the music. Gabrielle's hand was setting softly on her lower back and her other was grasping the older twin's hand. She tried not to listen to the words of the song, but she couldn't help but wonder if the athletic girl holding onto her had requested it. Katie was too lost in the moment, her body was reacting in ways it shouldn't, but she couldn't think about that, not right now. Gabrielle's perfume was putting her on a strange high, and she wasn't use to that sort of feeling without the use of drugs or alcohol.

When the song ended the two women stood there, staring at each other before Gabrielle cleared her throat and took a step back, mumbling something about needing to use the bathroom. Katie watched her and after a few moments she walked right in behind the tall red head. Her hand reached out to grab Gabrielle's wrist, spinning her around. The hazel-green eyes were intense as they locked with chocolate browns. The Fitch girl was in unfamiliar territory, she knew what she wanted to do, but she knew it wasn't right. She was having an internal battle with herself, and she could see the look written clearly across Gabrielle's face, which was telling her to just do it.

She licked her lips and moved forward, her free hand reaching up behind the tall red head's neck to pull her head down to make her more easily accessible. The feeling of Gabrielle's lips against her own was unlike anything she had ever felt before. They were soft, and unlike the boys she had kissed before, she felt like she was in control of the lip lock. Both Katie's arms were now hanging onto the muscular girl's neck and only then did she feel the strong soft hands slide around her waist.

She couldn't suppress a moan from ripping from her throat, but when she heard the squeaking of the door she pulled away, quite breathless. Her eyes looked at Gabrielle who had a small smile tipping the edges of her lips, but this didn't help Katie. She was even more confused than she was before. Emily and Naomi had been right, but they would have never thought that the elder twin would have been the aggressor. "Can… can you take me home?"

She didn't really want to go home, but she couldn't stay. Katie couldn't trust herself right now, and she knew Gabrielle wouldn't give her grief about it. The red head simply nodded her head and escorted her out to the valet where they waited for a few minutes for her truck to arrive.

The ride home was silent with a soft love ballad playing softly on the radio. Once they reached the Fitch household Katie hesitated. She turned back and leaned in to give Gabrielle a kiss on the cheek, "I had a great time, thank you." She noticed that the athletic girl simply nodded her head as she hopped down from the car. Katie walked backward a few steps before offering up a waive to Gabrielle and heading inside.

She ran straight up to her room, glad that Emily wasn't there, and pulled out her journal. Her hand was shaking so much that she doubted that she would be able to read what she was scribbling down.

'Dear Journal,

I have no idea what just happened. I was just, caught up in the moment. I kissed her. I know... I'm as surprised as you are. It felt so good too. Her lips are so soft and her body… get a grip Katie. You're not gay. There had to be something in your drink, maybe she slipped some MDMA in there or something. I need to get changed, and to bed. Goodnight.

Katie'
