“In all honesty I think the thought of coming out scared me more than actually coming out. I tried to second guess peoples reactions, got it totally wrong of course, some people took it worse than others, but they came round in the end”.

“Oh I know how that goes, my mum totally freaked out, her and my dad didn’t talk to me for ages”.

“Really”.

“Yeah Al will tell you”.

“Oh yeah awful, look why don’t I leave you two to it, I’m sure I have all I need and well your both a bit distracted. I’m sure a silly little interview can wait until you both stop making doe eyes and sickening flirting, I’m off, it was a pleasure Louisa”.

“Alice, Al wait”. Oh god what on earth just happened, I mean whats up with Alice, I thought the interview was going well and Louisa likes me, she actually likes me and now I have to leave, I need to find Alice.

Running out of the planet, Dana soon catches up to Alice.

“Alice, what the hell is wrong with you? Why did you just walk out on your interview for no reason?”

“No reason, are you kidding me Dana. That interview was for L.A magazine, not an idiots guide to flirting”.

“Flirting, Alice we weren’t flirting, we were talking, that’s all”.

“Oh Louisa aren’t you just fantastic and best thing since mashed potato, oh no Dana you’re the best, so why don’t we stop the chit chat and make out on the table” Alice mocks.

“Alice, that is not how it was and even it was, what the hell has it got to do with you”.

“It has everything to do with me, you ruined my interview and……”

“And what Al, its not like you to be tongue tied, your not jealous that Louisa likes me and not you, is that it”.

“No it bloody well isn’t, I don’t see what you find so special about her anyway, she’s just another L.A plastic, its all about me actress”.

“So if that’s not it, what was all that drama about”…………”Well are you going to answer me”.

Alice stands facing Dana contemplating what she should do. If she caught

Dana off guard she could easily run to her car and drive off before being caught……..no she couldn’t do that. There was only one thing for it, she stepped closer to Dana, taking her face in her hands saying “because of this” She leans in gently kissing Dana on the lips, slow and soft at first until she gets the response she’s looking for, then deepening the kiss. She lets her tongue enter Dana’s mouth, searching, tasting and licking, what she’s wanted to do for a long time. They pull each other closer, both becoming lost in a kiss they’ve both wanted for a very long time. They had all the time in the world for explanations, but this moment didn’t come along very often, it was a moment to enjoy for what it was, a mind blowing kiss between two soul mates. It may have taken months to finally happen, but it did in the end and that was all that mattered. They both realised how lucky they both were, not everyone in this life is lucky enough to find their soul mate, the one person they connect to on every level, the one they were put on this earth to love. Let it be a lesson, when you know you’ve found your soul mate, don’t hid it, certainly don’t run from it, take all the risks in the world to keep them by your side and never, ever give them up, or your life will be filled with regret. To love and to be loved is all that really matters.
