I stood in the store, standing there with wide eyes as I looked around. The place seemed so. . .intimidating. Girls were fluttering here and there in their flowery dresses, see through blouses, and tight jeans. They were all chatting excitedly about the new designs and fabrics that were being used on the clothes and all the popular topics on Social Media. I cringed as the too strong smell of perfume hit my nose.
How did Ashley shop here?!
I gulped as I made my way fully in, I shoved my hands into my pockets and filtered through the crowd of females to the desk, standing there awkwardly until the cashier noticed me, she was a young woman, probably younger than me.
"Hey there! How may I help you?" She asked, looking over my outfit with a slight grimace, I didn't think my outfit was all that bad. I was wearing black yoga pants, my track shoes, and my favorite red pull over hoodie with my college's track team name on it, "New wardrobe?" I ignored that jab at me and rolled my eyes.
"Actually. I'm here to shop for my girlfriend. She loves this store and is a regular." I said and The girl, Victoria as her name tag read, raised her eyebrow and a few seconds later her eyes lit up.
"Oh! You mean Ashley?" She asked and I nodded my head, after that Victoria changed her entire attitude and led me along the store, "Ashley absolutely adores this section, she hates the clothing that shows too much so I can always find her back here." She explained and I nodded my head, beginning to look through the clothing provided, "I had no idea she was a lesbian." Victoria suddenly said and I looked up at her, furrowing my brows.
"What do you mean?" I inquired, curious.
"Well. . .I don't know. She just doesn't seem like a lesbian?"
"Are you saying all Lesbians act a certain way?" I asked, narrowing my eyes slightly.
"No no not at all! I meant nothing by it!" Victoria said and I scoffed, turning away and relaxed when she finally left me to look through the too expensive clothing in peace.
Getting everything set up and ready in our shared apartment was a bit of a nuisance as Beth and Hannah were late to help decorate like always. The door got pushed open quickly as the twins finally trudged in.
"Finally! I almost have the place done!" I said, hopping down from the couch. Beth laughed and sat the cake down on the counter.
"Sorry Sam. The cake took a bit longer to decorate then I thought it would." Beth explained and I hopped over, looking down at the cake and grinning as I saw it was Star Trek themed.
"Do you think she'll like the Star Trek theme?" Hannah asked, looking around the room in awe, being almost ran over as Josh and Chris ran in, looking way too excited about all of this as they sat their gifts on the table next to mine.
"Of course she will! She is OBSESSED with Star Trek!" Chris said, managing to calm Josh down for 5 seconds to fix his shirt collar, which of course Josh whined and kissed Chris to distract him from doing more to his appearance, "Dude. You look like shit. Gotta make you look at least presentable."
"I hope she does. If she doesn't I'm going to be so pissed." Sam groaned, rubbing her head, "That place she shops at-Beautiques I think?- is so bad. Smells like cheap perfume and hairspray."
"She'll love it Samantha. Don't worry yourself so much." Emily said as she walked in with Jessica hanging off of her and Matt and Mike waltzing in behind them, holding hands. We all froze and looked at them. "What? Never heard if a damn polygamous relationship?" Emily scowled and Jessica giggled, nuzzling Emily slightly.
"They are just surprised sweets, don't mind them." Mike said, grinning and kissing the top of her head. "I'd be surprised too if like, Josh, Chris, Sam, and Ashley got together." I could see Hannah giving a sad look towards the foursome and I frowned slightly.
"Just put your alls stuff on the table and get ready to hide! She'll be here any minute now!" I said, waving my arm around to direct everyone to their hiding spots.
"I don't think this is-" Chris said as I pushed him and Josh into the closet, shutting the door. I scurried over to behind the couch, the closest place to the doorway and waited silently, hoping she would love the birthday party and what I had gotten her, it'd taken all day to find the perfect gift for her and she damn well like it. Not that I'd be mad if she didn't, I just ran around everywhere and was a bit tired. I hope that the party goes by quickly. I heard the front door open and close and when the lights flickered on we all jumped up and yelled surprise, catching her off guard. Ashley's face just split into the biggest smile I'd ever seen as she laughed off the fact she jumped 5 feet into the air from our sudden shout.
"Oh my god guys! I can't believe you did this!" She said and I walked up to her, wrapping my arms around her waist and nuzzling her, I felt her arms goes around my neck as she snuggled me back.
"Happy 25th birthday Ash" I mumbled to her and looked behind me to the others, noticing that Chris and Josh weren't there. The closet was still closed.
"Hey. . .where's Josh? And Chris?" Ashley asked, puzzled and I narrowed my eyes as I went over to the closet. Pulling it open I saw Josh on Chris' lap, eating each others faces.
"Oh come on! Can't you two fucking bunnies stop for just one minute?" Mike said, looking in the door frame and rolling his eyes at the sweaty pair as they looked up at us cheekily and a bit embarrassed. Damn right they better be embarrassed.
"Just. . . clean up and let's move this party forward." I grumbled as I put my fingers to my temples, trying to stop the aching headache coming up. Arms wrapped around me from behind as Ashley hugged me.
"This is perfect! Star Trek?" She said excitedly, I turned around and smiled.
"Yeah. . .Star Trek." I heard Chris grumble angrily from inside the closet.
"Of shut up you light saver, yoda, obsessed. . . HAN SOLO!"
"That was a terrible insult! Come'on! You know NOTHING about Star Wars. And it's a Light saber. Not saver." Chris came out of the closet, looking presentable.
"Guys. Stop fighting. I like both." Josh said, grinning and the two of them just turned and glared at him, "B-but I totally like Star Wars better." He said nervously, making Chris smile and Ashley to scowl more. Ashley then turned back to me, her smile returning.
"Let us party?" She asked sweetly and I smiled, nodding.
The party was pretty fun. Except we never got to opening the presents. I looked over at Ashley giggling next to me, everyone else had already either passed out or gone home. I sat up, humming contently and crawling away from Ashley who stopped giggling and gasped, as if offended that I was leaving her side.
"Where are you going Jeremiah?"
"Samantha."
"Yes. . .Samantha. . . Jeremiah . . .hmm. . .that'd be a really cute name. . . if we ever have a boy we are so naming it Jeremiah." I blushed at the fact she was already coming up with kid names and just shook my head, grabbing my box that laid on the counter and crawling back over to the high girl, probably shouldn't have let her eat so many of Beth's Pot Brownies. I sat the box in front of her and she smiled, hugging it, "I love it."
"Open it you dofe." I was worried how long the box had been there.
"Shhh. Offensive." Ashley said as she tore the wrapping off, whispering how much she adored the kitty wrapping paper I had used and wen she opened it she gasped. "Oh my god. . . you got me-" She picked it up from the box. There in her hands was a small black and white sleeping kitten. Ashley held it against herself and it instantly began to purr contently.
I looked in the box and groaned when I saw it had pooped. Oh well. . . just get rid of the box. I stood up and went over to the closet, pulling out the other cat supplies I had hidden in there and began to sit everything down, smiling as I did so.
"I change my mind! This baby shall be named Jeremiah!" Ashley announced and got up. Running over to me and kissing me deeply. I just smiled into the kiss and pulled back, looking into her green eyes with fondness.
"Lovely name . . . .for a girl cat." Ashley froze, then shrugged.
"Names have no Gender. Not really. We just think they do." She protested and I just laughed, I am ridiculously in love with this girl.
