Why do I feel so nervous about seeing Al tonight? It’s just a movie. A movie with a friend. A very hot friend…

I’m screwed.

Right Fairbanks, pull yourself together and quit acting like such a lez. She gets out of her car and pauses at the buildings entrance. She composes herself then presses the buzzer.

Meanwhile inside, Alice is running around like a headless chicken trying to pick the perfect film whilst also getting dressed. After several minutes of deliberation she decides on a pair of old Levis and a cute shirt as well as Saw IV. After all she did have a professional tennis player to hide behind… Just as the writer’s thoughts were beginning to wander down a dangerous path the buzzer went, making her jump. Looking into the mirror and surprising herself by her own readiness she presses the intercom.

“Hey it’s me.”
A subconscious grin spreads across Alice’s face as she buzzes her in. She quickly turns back to the mirror for one final inspection of her appearance and in doing so realizes she has forgotten to change from her glasses to lenses. Cursing, she opens the door for the tennis player before running into the bathroom.

Dana walked quickly up the stairs, her pulse quickening regardless of the physical exertion. Finding the door slightly ajar she pushes it open slowly.

“Al…?”
“In the bathroom! Fuck… Two seconds.”

Dana curiously wanders over to the bathroom and finds the writer on all fours frantically searching.

“What the hell are you doing?”
“I dropped a lens on the floor and I can’t find it anywhere.”

Although Dana found it kind of cute watching her best friend search the floor frantically she knelt down to help with the search.

“Why don’t you just wear your glasses Al?”

“I don’t know. I only wear them around the house. They make me feel kind of geeky.”

Giving up on searching, Alive turns around to find Dana still on all fours with an unfamiliar look on her face. Unable to fathom what this look meant, the writer begins to feel self-conscious.

“What?”
“Nothing. I just think you look hot in your glasses that’s all.”
