More Than Friends (Lesbian Story)

chapter 2

Arya POV

I rolled over and popped up onto my feet getting off the floor. I bent down and held out a hand for Renee to grab so I could pull her to her feet. We wiped away the tears that had fallen down our faces and went to look in the mirror so we could compose ourselves. "Are you coming over today after school?" I asked. "I'm gonna stop home and say hi to my parents, tell them where I am going and then head over to your place" Renee said. I slipped off my shirt and walked over to my locker agreeing to our plans. After changing back into my school clothes I looked over at Renee who was sliding her jeans on. "Alright well I'll see you in an hour or so then. I'm gonna head home." I said while walking out of the locker room. I rubbed my nose cause it was still a little sore from that damn dodgeball. Thinking back to how pissed Renee was when I got hit I smiled a little. She was definitely my best friend for a reason. I probably would have done the same thing to Chuck if he had hit her in the face because of how protective of a relationship we had. I walked into the parking lot and climbed into my white and black Mustang. This car was my pride and joy having received it for my sixteenth birthday I kept it in the best shape possible. My thoughts went to the glance Renee and I shared on the locker room floor. What did it mean? Am I overthinking this? I asked myself these questions until I had finally had enough. She is your best friend and always has been, you are just imagining things. I decided that tonight we would go out to a party or a club, because I needed some distractions. I sent a quick text to Renee telling her to bring her fake I.D. for the club tonight. When I pulled into my driveway my mind was occupied with thoughts of the outfit I would wear tonight and what I would tell my parents. I walked into the house and climbed the stairs to my room. As I strode into my closet my mom walked in after me. "Hey hon, your father and I are going out tonight so it'll just be you and Renee. Right?" She asked. "Yea, she's gonna be here in a half hour or so." I replied.  "Ok well just have fun, we'll be back around midnight." she said. My mom hugged me goodbye and left me to myself. I grabbed my outfit and walked into the bathroom so I could shower being all sweaty from gym. I stripped down and got into the shower. When I got out I put my bra and underwear on and walked to my bedroom. Sitting on my bed was Renee. You'd think I'd be used to having her in my room due to the countless times we have hung out but I still yelped in surprise to see her there. "I didn't know you would be here so soon." I said while going over to my dresser and grabbing the clothes I had picked out. As I was shimmying into the white skinny jeans and slipping on the tight black shirt she said "Yea, I came a little early, sorry for scaring you." I just shrugged and said it was no big deal. Examining her clothing choice I said "Wow, you look great." She was wearing a fitted thigh length black dress with a half sleeve. "Thanks you too" was her reply. I looked in the mirror and applied some light eye makeup and eyeliner never having been a big fan of the stuff. After bending down and lacing up my boots I straightened up and grabbed her hand. "Come on, let's go grab some dinner and then we can head to the club." I pulled her hand to get her up. We got in my car and headed to a local diner to grab some food. We placed our orders and sat back, relaxed in the easy atmosphere. Once our burgers came we chowed down and paid the bill. I walked back to my baby with Renee in tow and hopped in the car. Once we got going again I asked "So who's the DD tonight?" She looked at me and said "I'll drive home tonight, you seem to be in more of a party mood than I am." I nodded in consent before cranking up the radio to our favorite station. It was about seven by the time we got to the club and pulled into the parking lot. As we walked up to the bouncer he checked our I.D.s and let us in. The minute you open the door you can feel the bass pounding into you. I made a beeline straight for the bar while Renee went to dance. The bartender took my order of a rum and coke as well as a shot of tequila. Tonight I was gonna have fun but after those two drinks I slowed down a little. I wanted to have fun but I didn't want to get so drunk that I would pass out or forget about the night completely. After loosening up a little I walked out to the dance floor and started looking for Renee. As I was scanning the room I found her sitting at a table with some guy. How she ended up there I have no idea because this really wasn't her thing. She caught my gaze and mouthed the words help me when the guy wasn't looking. I laughed at her situation because leave it to Renee to find a decent looking guy who was totally annoying. So I did what any best friend would do and went to save her. I walked over to the table and slung my arm around her. "Hey babe, I was wondering where you had gone off to." I said loud enough for the guy to hear. He quirked an eyebrow at us and asked "Babe? You two are together?" I smiled at him and said "Of course, you don't honestly think a pretty girl like her would come to a club like this alone do you?" He looked at me suspiciously. "Prove it then" he demanded. "And how the hell do you propose I do that?" I asked venomously. "Kiss her" came the simple response. I looked down at Renee and shrugged my eyes asking the question. She gave me a small nod which I took as a go ahead. I watched her eyes as I pulled her up and into my arms. The guy was looking on with a doubt filled face. We leaned into each other and our lips met at the same time our eyes closed. They brushed across each other briefly before the kiss deepened a little. My mind was swirling with the thoughts of how much I was enjoying this kiss. I decided to chalk it up to the alcohol I had already consumed. When we pulled away I couldn't look Renee in the eye so I turned to look at the man watching. "Evidence enough?" I demanded. He grunted a response before walking away. I sucked up my fears and turned back around to look at Renee. "I'm sorry, I couldn't think of any way to get rid of him other than what he said." I told her in a rush. "Hey, it's no big deal, you were just saving me from a boring ass guy, it's not like you wanted to kiss me or anything right?" I stared at her. "Of course not, it was all just a little show. No biggie." I looked into her eyes and saw what could have been a flash of hurt before she quickly went back to normal. "Ok then, I'm ready to head home, you?" I just nodded my head in agreement before handing her the keys. The ride home was silent and I was relieved when we finally pulled into my driveway. After parking we got out and trekked upstairs to my room. As soon as we entered I pulled off my clothes and changed into pjs before crawling into bed. I felt Renee settle in next to me before whispering "Night" and then I fell asleep to thoughts about our kiss and how confused I was.
