Chapter 8

[You Drive Me] Crazy~ Britney Spears

ANGIE'S POV//

When the clouds in the sky move it's because there is a change in time or weather. The same goes for people. When time goes by people change. When the weather changes so do people. I know that sounds silly but it happens to be very true. Paulina gets cranky when it's really hot out. Like everyone else. When it's cold out her blood warms up and she becomes a ball of cuddliness that can't help the feeling of kindness. 

My point being Paulina went from a person I viewed as a friend, a sister, a colleague. Now she's way more than that. She's an angel of cosmic pleasure. Every move she makes I just can't help observing and studying to find out more about her. She makes me hungry for more. I want to learn more, grow more. Be more. If someone makes you feel like that then they're the right one. If they make you feel like you're going to burst every time you talk to them or are in their presence then they're doing something right. Maybe even everything. If the feeling comes effortlessly then you'll know. 

Paulina and I decided to spend the last Saturday of summer vacation together. It's sweet. We get to be out in public as a couple. Which can be scary because not everyone has quite accepted the concept of lesbianism. 

"What do you wanna get to eat," I ask Paulina and swing her hand back and forth in mine.

She hums before Answering. "Panda," She answers and smiles.

"I'll pay," I say.

"No I will," She refuses.

"We aren't arguing about this again. I'm paying," I say and stare at her with a stern expression on my face.

"Fine," She says and looks away defeated. She's considerate like that. I've never had to worry about her freeloading because she's always willing to pay. Not like I'm going to take advantage of that. I would never. But she's a good one. 

"Can we go to PINK and look at their backpacks?" I ask before dragging Paulina into PINK.

"I thought you already got your backpack," She says.

"Yeah but I wanna look at all the backpacks I could've had," I smile.

"Only you," She laughs and we walk into PINK. 

PAULINAS POV//

Angie and I walk into PINk and the first things she does is gravitate toward the backpacks with the most glitter. I stroll behind Angie and gaze at things in my path. I'm not one for girly shit like this but she is.

"Oh come look at this," Angie says addressing me. 

"Lemme see," I say and walk up behind her. "That's very cute," I say encouraging her excitement. 

"Too bad I already bought my backpack," She says disappointed and puts down the glittery backpack. She grabs my hand and walks me over to the underwear. 

"Oh yay, Paulina treats," I smirk.

"Don't be dirty," She giggles.

"Fucking dykes," I hear a voice laugh from behind me. I turn around and to my surprise a peppy blonde with her sister. They look like lesbians if you ask me.

"Excuse me?" I ask and stand my ground.

"I said 'fucking dykes,'" the blonde repeats and now I'm pissed.

"Why don't you and your cock gobbling sister mind your fucking business," I say and speak with my right hand. The sister's jaw drops halfway to the floor as if she didn't expect me to say that.

"Close your mouth before someone considers it an invitation," I facetiously say. 

ANGIE'S POV//

"Paulina, Ignore it," I say and grab Paulina's arm but she turns back to the sisters. "Paulina. Don't," 

"Why don't you take your whiny bitch and poison another store?" The blonde says and giggles as if shes fucking cute.

"You just fucked up," Paulina laughs and rolls up her sleeves. I ignore whatever might be said next and go back to what I was doing. I'm sure there might just be more than words so I turn back around. When I turn around I see Paulina's fist flying and colliding with the blondes face. She falls to the floor and her sister shrieks. I put my hands over my mouth because I didn't expect Paulina to keep going. She straddles the blonde on the floor and continues smacking her and pulling her hair. 

"Get your crazy girlfriend off my sister," The blondes sister shrieks while watching Paulina beat the crap out of the blonde. Let's call her Britney. I try inching toward the fight but I chicken out because I've never seen Paulina do this since she and Kassidy had that fight. A store associate walks over and starts yelling. 

"Paulina get off of her," I yell to break up the fight. 

"Ok let's go. Come on," I say and lift Paulina from under her arms. She's starts kicking and throwing her fists everywhere. When she stands to her feet she's out of breath and a mess.

"Don't fuck with me," She says and looks down at the girl who is now bloody and covered in black and blue bruises. 

"Bitch," The blonde yells as we leave the store.

"Cunt," Paulina yells back and I continue trying to push her out of PINK.

"Ok let's go, Jackie Chan," I say and let go of her arm once we're out. 

"What the fuck Paulina? You can't just go punching people in the face everytime they say something about gay people," I scold Paulina and all she does is stare at me out of breath.

"You can't avoid this kind of crap. People are going to hate us. Your lip is bleeding," I say and pull a tissue out of my pocket. She licks her lip and wipes the blood.

"You're disgusting," I say because she just recycled her own blood. 

"I'm sorry ok but no one calls my girlfriend a bitch," She says and melts my heart.

I stare at her for a few seconds with my arms crossed before smacking her upper arm.

"You're so fucking stupid. You're gonna get your dumbass shot one day if you keep coming at people fists first," I say. She wipes the blood off her lip and laughs. 

"Holy shit, you nailed her real good," I say and see Britney coming out of PINK with one arm around her sister and one around a store associate who is helping her out. 

"What?" Paulina asks and I point to Britney.

"Holy shit," Paulina slightly laughs.

"Fuck off," Britney cries while being carries away.

"We gotta get you into boxing or something because you seem to be in love with your fists," I say and grab Paulina's hand. 

Its hard to be mad at someone who you love so much. I don't want Paulina to start fighting everyone who shows us hate because her fists are going to get tired and because it's worthless. If People don't like what they see then they can put their eyelids to use or make like an owl and turn 270 degrees. It's no secret that the world has gay people. In some countries, being gay can get you killed. But in America we are fortunate enough to keep our lives, however, we have the misfortune of dealing with people who can't handle two women raising a baby together or two men raising a baby together. Instead, two girls kissing is sexualized and sex between two men is made fun of. people have the human right to love whomever. If you identify as he, she, they or even Josh Hutcherson, you get to love who you wish. We need to normalize same-sex love. Just like we need to normalize breastfeeding public and private. We've been giving birth for how long? Yes, forever and it's still 'weird' for a woman to feed her baby in public. Miss me with that bullshit. Anyway, legalize love. Everywhere.
