A/N    Y'ALL WANTED A TWIST? WELL HERE'S YOUR TWIST

She stands there and STARES at me. What did I just do? The kiss sobered me up completely, and the room stops spinning, and all I see are those eyes staring into mine- those eyes I have lived in since I first saw them.

Maybe I should pass it off as a joke.
But you can't joke about how you feel.

"What the fuck Adore?" She asks, a look of disgust on her face.
Do I apologise? Buy her ice cream? I just dither and stare, hopelessly trying to speak with my eyes: I love you. I've loved you since we first met. I love your flaws and perks and everything. When I saw you kiss Courtney, I didn't know what to do with myself.
"I'm sorry," I say- and turn my heel and walk away. She doesn't even follow me. I can't go back in the club. I just can't. Instead I go through the back entrance in a shady ass alley way. I slide onto the floor, putting my head back on the cold brick wall, feeling something well up in my throat. Not here Adore. Not- it's too late. I'm weeping, my body racking with every sob and I can't even see because of the tears. How could I have been so stupid? Thinking that someone as perfect as Bianca would like me.
"Adore?"
I turn my head to see Katya, a cigarette in hand, mascara streaks down her face, coming from the even shadier part of the alley. Im not the only crying drag queen here.
"Hey," I smile weakly. "Are you okay?"
"Never mind me. Jeez Louise, what the Hell happened to you? I think your tears are washing away your eyelashes."
She sits beside me and wraps her arms around my neck, prompting me to explain.
"I kissed Bianca."
"WHAT?!" Katya yells, looking excited for me. And then it hits her. "I guess she never returned your feelings."
"Yep. And what about you? Don't give me this 'I'm totally not crying' bullshit."
"Trixie and I got into a fight. A bad one- she said she didn't want to see me again." Her voice is so soft, it's barely audible.
"What? How? Why?"
"I don't even know," She chokes on her own tears. "She just started on me for no reason. After I went to check on her she just... snapped. She called me selfish and delusional- I'm sorry." She wipes her eyes. "You're the one who's supposed to be venting. This is your love life after all."
"Who the fuck cares about a stupid crush dilemma? A friend break-up is worse than unrequited love."
"Posh word, Barbara."
I giggle a bit and stand up. "Cmon Kat. Let's go."
We both head back to the building, looking like two rejects from the Sound of Music.
"Wait. You're rooming with Trixie, aren't you? And I'm with Bianca..."
"Oh god, Jesus TAKE THE WHEEL. This is going to be awkward."
"What are we gonna do?"
"I have no idea. We could sleep on a space beach."
"Yeah we- Wait what?"
"You know... like Contact?"
I groan. "No."
"You should watch it. It's about this scientist and she-"
"Adore?"
Oh god. Bianca. She's standing in front of us, looking like a queen in all of her clown attire. "About what you did-"
"B. I don't want to hear about it. What's done is done. I'm going."
"Wait! Cmon, Adore!"
"Look, it was mistake. I never meant to make it such a mess. It's like when you said kissing Shane was a mistake."
"You said what?" FOR FUCKS SAKE. Now COURTNEY turns up.
"I didn't mean it," Bianca says. "I was in the moment and-"
"Save it!" Courtney states. While they're distracted, Katya and I make a run for it, Bianca yelling my name. Now, I'm fucking crying AGAIN (I know, what a surprise) and Katya is hesitantly trying to wipe my tears. We turn a corner sharply and run into someone. Standing there is (Jesus Christ) the one and only Trixie Mattel. Katya's eyes widen and she stops and stares at Trixie, trying to make sense of it all. Seeing us together just messes with her I think and she walks straight past us.

It's then I realise... Trixie loves Katya. That's why Trixie left... it's because of me and Katya were dancing together and it was too much. She loves her.

The Russian is also crying now and we're both blubbing like babies. Where are we gonna go?

"What's going on out here?"

ALASKA?!
Jesus, is Rupaul going to appear soon?

"You guys... look terrible," She simply states. She's still in drag and peering out her hotel room. "Sharon's having a sleepover at some guy's house if y'all wanna come in."
