My Girlfriend... and Her Other Half

Prologue

Prologue

(POV: Pepper)

By a simple glance at the world, one would think it was simple. But if an intelligent alien race were to inspect us and our daily habits, one thing would cross their minds: Humans made everything complicated! Of course it would be in there own alien language that would sound gibberish if we were to hear it.

So what did the human race do that was different than all the other creatures on our planet? Well look at the beginning. Every creature found on this planet is here... to have crazy sex and make many babies. Sorry I'm getting a little immature. They are here to reproduce.

It's simple. They just want to keep their species alive, and that is why they have sex, to live on.

But then humans come around, and make everything difficult. They bring love into the baby making equation. Now don't get me wrong, there are certain animals who do choose a mate, like we fall in love with someone. Heck they even show their signs of affection to each other by ways other than having sex. But humans just take things so far.

They have crushes, dates, long make-out seshes behind that one building that no one likes, and then reproduce. Well most of them marry before that last part.

And because of this love started to evolve. Things like being interested in the same gender started to become a thing. Well it always was a thing, but it started to become recognized, and soon a general normality.

But that normalcy doesn't make it easier for said people who are interested in the same gender, to find a person to love.

I always knew I was a lesbian. It wasn't until I was 11 that I had a name for it though. By the time everyone was 8 boys and girls alike started to forget about cooties and were okay hanging out with the opposite gender. So when I was 10, in 5th grade, my friends started talking to me about the guys they liked, and I was just grossed out. I was like "guys are cool, but I don't like them in that sorta way!"

I thought girls were pretty, but as a kid you can never tell if it was romantically or just a comment. But when I was 11, I thought I was the weirdest girl because I had a crush on a pretty 7th grader who showed me around the school. She was a bit shorter than me, as I was tall for my age, and she was adorable, and so nice. Leanne was her name, and she was my first crush. I learned a few months later that if you liked girls it meant you were a lesbian. After a little research I learned more about it and other terms.

By the time I was in high school, at 14, I figured I wasn't bisexual, as I hadn't had one crush on a guy, and I can say I still never have. My parents were cool with it, and I made sure to explain it to my little sisters too. I never really saw my parents much anyway, because they were either off at work, or taking care of my little sisters. So they never noticed when I would drag a girl inside the house so we could suck on each other's faces on my bed.

But I can also honestly say I've never really felt attached to any of my girlfriends. And trust me I had a few. Some of them I would stay with for a few weeks, some a few months, but none ever lasted 6 months. Meredith, my most recent girlfriend, was the longest running one at 5 months, but she and I broke up after fall semester in my freshman year of college. Since then I have not had a single girlfriend. I've tried, heck I've even been on dating sites, but no one.

I could say I've just about given up in my quest to find love. I'm not looking to marry, I just want to have someone to spread all my affection to.

This really would have been a lot simpler if we humans had not come in and ruined the whole system the other animals had going.

But I guess it's just a part of our nature.

(A/N: Wow I wasn't actually expecting to get this out today, or anytime soon, but after writing the last Watson-Brad one-shot, I felt in the mood to finish chapter summaries for this. My new story is here guys. I will try to get a chapter out a eek, but with the one-shots it may be hard. I may switch off some weeks, or do both other weeks. it all depends on my schedule, and my creativity levels)

(also, if you don't quite get the cover, it's two fabrics sewn together. It's supposed to represent the two personalities, attached two one person)

(I hope you guys enjoyed the prologue, and will stick around for more. I'm very excited to complete this story.)
