Faking It (Emison)

Chapter 9

Emily POV

"I don't get how this is going to work Cece."

"Stop being so dramatic. Finding you a girlfriend should be easy. We're at the perfect Lesbian cafe. Look at all of them! They're perfect-heyyy," Charlotte smirks and stops a girl who's walking. "Hey," she greets and smiles at Charlotte.

I groan and yank her away, "I don't know how to do this! How do I...pick up a girl?"

She sighs, "god you're like an alien. Just be you. Get to know them. Lesbians are hopeless romantics, they move fast and they want an emotional connection. Unless you're me, who just loves hooking up with them. But find someone who you actually connect with. Have fun! Oh and if you need me just give me the look. I'll be watching. Have fun vagina hunter!" She slaps my ass and walks away, making me laugh and shake my head.

I feel my phone vibrate and I look at the screen.

Ali <3

I shake my head and decline her call, then walk over to a girl sitting on a couch.

Alison POV

"Em please answer! It's been 24 hours since we last talked and I am having Emily withdrawals already. Please call me back. I miss you."

"You okay?" Toby walks over and I smile sadly, "no. Emily's mad at me."

"That sucks. What happened?"

I sigh and shake my head, "it was so stupid. I said things I shouldn't have and I need to apologize but I can't do that when she's dodging my texts and calls."

He nods and frowns, "well if it helps, Charlotte hasn't answered my calls either. We were supposed to hangout today."

"So then...maybe they're together?" I say and smile.

"Sounds like it."

"Do you know where they could be? I really have to find Emily and apologize. I hate it when she's mad at me. And when she's sad it makes me feel like I just kicked a fucking puppy so. Yeah."

Toby nods with a chuckle, "if anything, Charlotte usually hangs out at Stir."

"That gay lounge?"

"Yeah. Maybe they're there."

I nod and look up the location on my phone. "Thanks Tobes."

"No problem. Wait!" He grabs my hand and I turn to him, "yeah?"

"Uh...do you maybe wanna...go out tonight?"

My heart flips as I lower my phone, "like a date?"

"If you don't want to I understand."

"No! I'd...uh I'd like that. But I thought I was just another girl to you. A lesbian that you can't wait to 'bang'." I cross my arms and give him a suspicious glare.

I can't believe I just said that. Holy shit.

Toby chuckles, "so that's why you wigged out in the car at Homecoming. Look, Alison. I'll admit that at first I only was interested because you're a lesbian but now...I like you, okay? And I want to get to know you better." He walks closer and his hands land on my waist.

I bite the inside of my cheek to hold in my screams and when I remember how to breathe, I do so and smile. "Y-yeah. I'd like to get to know you more too."

"Good. Tonight, 7 at the Grille. I'll pick you up." He leans in and kisses me sweetly, making my stomach flip over and over.

"It's a date." I smile, then walk away to my car and drive to the lounge.
