today was the day.

the day is that iris and bee had to start their assignment. jack had told the girls that they needed to make sure to make the relationship believable.

he suggested doing things like posting pictures of each other out to lunch or just hanging out in general. of course, they were both very nervous and unprepared.

iris wasn't even sure she liked girls and she had to pretend to date one?

she didn't have anything against bee though. she loved her a lot. they'd been through some tough things in the past, but always stuck together in the end. then, bee was sent off for six years and iris thought that she was gone for good.

turns out that everything isn't always as it seems.

her head turned at a knock on her door. she quickly put her hair in a ponytail and put on a grey zip up sweater and some black shorts, she didn't want to be seen in her pajamas.

that would be embarrassing.

"come in." she said, pressing the button on her wall and opening the door. she saw bee walk in, and take a seat on her bed.

"listen, iris, i don't want this to be weird. but i do like girls and i don't know how to say this, but i've never actually had a girlfriend since coming out and i don't know how to do this." she ranted, but iris just gave her a hug which surprised her.

"don't worry, i've never had a girlfriend either." bee gasped, "d-do you like girls too?"

iris' cheeks turned a bright red, "i-im not sure.. i think so. but i like boys too." she said, finally admitting it.

and she could finally breathe, it was like a weight was lifted off of her chest. bee noticed of course, "first time saying it out loud?" she asked with a sincere smile, iris nodded.

"i'll meet you outside in 10 minutes? we can drive together." bee asked, iris nodding.

she left, and iris was left to think about what she'd just admitted.

she thought about it for a good five minutes then snapped out of whatever trance she was in and went to her drawers, pulling on a t-shirt with blue, black, yellow, and white stripes on it. she decided to keep the pair of black shorts on because it went with the shirt.

she put a pair of socks on and then got her old beat up black converse high tops out and put those on.

she put on a bit of mascara, blush, and highlighter, grabbed her things, and left.
