Chapter 4

“You don’t mind this, right?” Tasha asked.

“No. Not at all. Are you…too drunk though?”

“No.”

Lydia nodded, but still seemed conflicted. They were both interested in women. That had been the key to understanding their trans identity years ago—constantly dating women together, but never feeling as if it worked because each one of their dates had wanted a man. When they realized they could be women, and still love women, it was as if a door had opened. Even if some people within the lesbian community often thought they didn’t belong, Tasha and Lydia always affirmed one another. Women and lesbians together. Just like Thelma and Louise, except without the cliff ending or Hollywood censorship.

Tasha rubbed her hand from side to side against Lydia’s leg. When she leaned in to kiss her, it was soft and quick. Not enough to turn into making out, but enough to signal desire, just in case Lydia was still confused. Lydia’s tongue ran along her lips with a smile.
