"You look hot." Funny how those three little words can have such an effect... if they come from the right place. A frat boy telling you that, well you'd sooner run or throw a drink in his face. But hearing it from Becca... now that's different. Because you're well, something like semi-closeted. If someone asks, you'd say that you prefer girls, but you haven't exactly advertised that to the world. You've done little things, little acts of coming out, you stopped talking about romance as looking for the right 'guy', looking for the right 'one' instead. Said that you don't like pandering to the 'male gaze', if someone explicitly tried to set you up with a guy you'd say you're not interested. If someone's looking the signs are there. You're still pretty sure that when you come out to your family you'll start by saying you're bi, just to ease them into the idea of you liking girls before using the L-word. As for Becca, well she hasn't asked. You assumed she didn't know, and it definitely didn't occur to you that she could be interested. The bubbly, gorgeous redhead, definitely out of your league even if she did like girls. More to the point you know that Becca does like guys. She's just out of a messy relationship, but she's been exclusively dating guys since she was your freshman roommate... even if she's also unlucky in love. After a particularly messy breakup somehow you got roped into a Hawaiian trip with Becca before your senior year, to help Becca deal with the breakup and anyway you were pretty sure Becca would have a new boyfriend within a week. On the flight out you were reading a book on your phone while quietly freaking out about the bikini that Becca somehow convinced you to buy. The bikini you were trying on when Becca said "You look hot." Becca leaned over, "Whatcha reading?" You blushed intensely, because what you were reading was a fantasy romance with some... lesbian themes.
