Missing The Signs

Story - Adriana Chechik is all dressed up for a night out, looking sexy. She's sitting impatiently on a couch, starting to look annoyed. 'Come ON, Cassidy! You've been in there forever! ' Adriana laments. 'Okay, okay, I'm coming! ' Cassidy Klein says as she emerges from her bedroom, looking equally sexy for going out. Yet, she doesn't look very confident or thrilled. Adriana starts to compliment on how sexy she looks, but pauses when she sees how pensive Cassidy is. 'Hey, what's up?' she asks as she pats the couch for Cassidy to join her. Cassidy sits with Adriana, looking a bit troubled. She admits that she doesn't know WHY she bothers going clubbing at all! She doesn't really have FUN when they're out clubbing. She loves hanging out with her bestie, obviously, but she doesn't like the whole club atmosphere. When she looks around, she always sees all kinds of people hitting on each other -- even people hitting on Adriana! -- but. . . no one hits on HER. Adriana gives a short, disbelieving laugh. 'Are you KIDDING me right now? People are ALWAYS hitting on you at clubs! Guys AND girls! ' As Adriana says 'girls,' she takes both of Cassidy's hands and squeezes them. Cassidy is oblivious to Adriana's hint as she scoffs and shakes her head. 'What? No they aren't! I would DEFINITELY know! Are you SURE about that. . . ? REALLY sure?' Cassidy presses. 'Uhhh, be-LIEVE me, I know,' Adriana replies. Maybe Cassidy is just missing the signs, Adriana says. People are always touching her, too! Like on her arms or shoulders when they sit close or pass by. 'What?? Oh. . . I mean, some people are just more touchy-feely, it doesn't MEAN anything. . . ' Cassidy counters. Adriana laughs and shakes her head. 'No, silly, they're looking for an excuse to connect with you. . . And when people buy you a round, they're not doing it to be chummy! ' 'But you buy me rounds ALL the time! ' Cassidy insists. 'Yeah, I DO,' Adriana says pointedly, staring even harder at Cassidy. 'Ugh, you're such a good friend, I should be buying YOU more when we're out,' Cassidy sighs, again oblivious. Cassidy explains that she always thought if someone was interested, they'd ask her out directly. In all the romantic comedies there's always a pick-up line or a grand gesture to show that someone is interested. Adriana explains that it's hard for. . . 'some people' to be that direct. Maybe they're shy, or not good with words, or maybe they're afraid of being rejected. Maybe it's risky for. . . 'some people' to ask other people out, in case they say no. Maybe it could change how Cassidy thinks about. . . 'some people', maybe it could even ruin a friendship! '. . . y'know, hypothetically speaking. ''Ohhhh,' Cassidy says, finally seeming to get it. Adriana nervously looks up at her friend, thinking she finally may have gotten the hint. But instead Cassidy just shrugs and says that she doesn't think she'd be too worried about ruining a friendship with a stranger at the bar, though. 'No, with ME you big dummy, I'm talking about ME! ! ' Adriana exclaims, looking stressed and flustered. She admits that she's been attracted to Cassidy for, like, a year! She tried giving her ALL the signs that she was interested but Cassidy just didn't catch on! 'Why didn't you just outright TELL ME??' Cassidy retaliates, still surprise and not pulling away from her. It would've saved them a lot of time! Now Adriana is surprised, asking what Cassidy means. Cassidy admits that she always liked Adriana, too, but didn't know if everything they did was because they were close friends or something more! Adriana groans and laughs. But does that mean Cassidy is actually interested in turning their friendship into something more? 'Yeah! I'm looking to date, and who better to date than my best friend?' Cassidy brightly says. They lean in towards each other, sharing a kiss as Adriana slips Cassidy's top off and licks her perky tits. Looks like they were BOTH missing the signs!
