Diane (Trixya Lesbian AU)

Chapter 5

***

Sophomore Year, 2016

Feeling a little dazed from the random burst of confidence she just had, she lets out a long breath and glances around the room. She feels like she was taken out of it for a few minutes and she needed to re-center herself. She shakes her head and shivers a bit, her brain quite literally only thinking about Katya so much so that she needed to take a moment to herself in quiet.

She felt the ghost of Katya's slender fingers in her back pocket and her mind felt fuzzy with excitement. This is something that she's never felt before, and she can feel her worries about her sexuality nagging at the back of her train of thought. She knew that she had to purposefully restrain them, she didn't need to deal with those thoughts right now. Her gut has never felt so correct, and she's trying to follow her gut more often. Listening to her body more. Therefore, she lets her mind flash images of red lips and firm hips.

Trixie basically ran home that day from the coffee shop. Her feet moved quickly to the beat of a Lady Gaga song, her feet pounding too hard against the pavement, but she couldn't help herself. She had never felt like this before. She was so into it, and she wasn't going to let this momentum die.

When she arrived back at the dorm, she immediately texted Aja to come over as soon as she could. Thank God she had finished her work that was due that night by midnight and had prematurely turned it in. She was free until she went out with Katya. Holy shit, she's going out with Katya. And she made that happen. It was all her own assertiveness and she had no regrets. She felt powerful in this moment.

She put her backpack on the ground and looked at herself in the mirror. She really did look good today.

She turned around and glanced to the 4x6 pictures she had printed out at the local drug store of different pink images from her own Pinterest to form a mood board on her designated wall. It wasn't very professional looking, but it satisfied her. She laid on the floor of her room, looking at the glow-in-the-dark stars her and Kim had put up after she had moved in. She closed her eyes for a moment before her phone chimed next to her waist. Aja would be over in ten.

Ten minutes later, she let Aja into her building and re-entered her room. Somehow, in the two minutes she had been off doing that, Kim was back in the room and sitting at her desk, on her phone.

Aja and Kim were friends because of Trixie, but they didn't know each other too well. Kim was Cosmetology-focused (even though she hadn't declared a major) and Aja is in Fashion Design, so they had crossed paths a few times before. Trixie had loved to see them come closer as friends every time they interacted, even though it was usually because of her.

"I've called Aja here to help me out and Kim, I could honestly use your help tonight too, what do you say?" Trixie smiled at her roommate hopefully.

Kim laughed a little, questioning Trixie. "What the hell are you getting yourself into?"

Trixie just smiled harder at that.

"Something that's too good to be true."

Kim had agreed to do Trixie's makeup for the night after they had gotten dinner together, something that Trixie had always wanted her to do. Kim had always protested, saying, "Trixie your face is a totally different shape, I'm not sure I wanna fuck up your face, and I'm sure you don't want me to fuck up your face." Trixie insisted that she could never, but Kim had always been wearied of her own talents. Trixie couldn't wait until Kim realized her own potential, she knew it was bound to happen.
