The Matchmaker's Choice: A Lesbian Romance - Page 87

Adley

After the symphony is over, I turn to Steph and find her

looking at me with this expression of pure happiness. I wonder

how much of that has to do with her being out for the first

time. Like, literally out. Out with a woman as more than just a

friend. We held hands. I loved it. I loved the music. I’m not a

classical person. I’ve never really experienced it beyond

elevators and hold music and the occasional mishap in

switching the radio station, but I think that might have been

one of the best nights of my life.

It was better than any concert I’ve ever been to.

Admittedly, half of them I was either pretty drunk at or bored

out of my mind, but even if they had been excellent and I had

a great time, this would far surpass it.

After we’re out of the impressive arts building, which

was probably built in the eighties because it’s all brick and

glass and totally outdated, but still pretty spectacular, and in

the parking lot, I look for Steph’s car in the sea of people and

cars exiting the giant asphalt area. I can’t even spot it.

I’m not ready to go home. It’s more than just the fact

that I don’t want to be alone in my empty, depressing little

apartment. We start walking in a new direction, as clearly

Steph can’t find her car either, and I swallow back what I was

going to say.

The car is a black sedan. It’s nice, expensive. I don’t

like thinking about that. It makes me feel funny because I

know that Steph doesn’t like it. If I brought it up, it would

probably be okay. I’ve known from the start. I just know that

people haven’t been very nice about it in the past and whether

she was interested in them or not, and that still stings.
