“That’s very sweet of you to say. Obviously if you rub pizza on your mouth on purpose to see if it stays, there’s going to be a little mess. But it should stay on just fine when you’re out eating and drinking. I promise.”
“Where can I find a lipstick that’ll stay when doing that? Or, I don’t know, going down on a woman. That’s a lipstick I’d buy.”
“I admit, it’s not one of my finest moments, but I have a high caffeine tolerance and it was a last resort. It was either finish my work or lose my job. Are there actually support groups for caffeine addicts? I might have a tiny bit of a problem.”
“Why are you staying up without sleep? That’s the real question here. Nothing is worth missing that much rest! And I’m not really sure, but I wouldn’t be surprised. It’s probably a secret club, so you’ve got to walk around Starbucks whistling.. if that’s even the secret code.”
“Is it safe to drink four large cups of coffee after 32 hours without sleep and still want to make more, even when your eye is twitching and you’re seeing sound? Asking for a friend.”
“Holy shit, you are fucking tiny! There are support groups for that, you know. The first step is admitting you have a problem.”
“This lipstick? It’s a Sephora Collection cream lip stain, and it’s amazing. I have a color for every occasion, and it’s completely kiss, meal, and blowjob proof.”
“Well, regardless of what brand it is, you fucking rock it. Does it really not come off for kissing or eating? Cause, that’s awesome. Not really worried about the blowjob situation, but if I were to wear lipstick, I’d probably pick one that would stay on after scarfing down some pizza.”
“Yeah, I wouldn’t want that on my conscious.” Weezie smiled some, “And that would mean I’d have to go into the city to go to the library.” Not only would it make Weezie just feel awfully terrible, but her mother might not speak to her for a few days, her mother having been the manager of a library for many years.
“A little light reading for work. My boss wants a report on some extreme weather event that happened in March in either the 50’s, the 60’s, the 70’s or the 80’s. He doesn’t remember which decaded,” She shook her head, moving her arms so that the books she held would not fall and tumble to the floor. She had already embarrassed herself by not being able to reach the top shelf, so she didn’t want to look like an absolute fool in front of someone new. “Would you mind just carryin’ a few? They are mighty heavy.”
“You made the right decision,” Felix teased in a whisper, their voice almost sounding like a cop telling a civilian they’d done a good deed. Well, that’s what they were going for, at least. Felix was the furthest thing there was from a police officer, but imitating them for the purpose of a joke wasn’t beneath them.
Felix smiled over at the brunette, admiring how genuine her smile looked. There was something about this girl - something kind of entrancing, that made Felix want to help her out. It wasn’t like they wouldn’t have to begin with considering they didn’t really have anything to do today, but something about her pulled them in, like the opposite ends of a magnet. “Well why do you think I offered?” They added in response to her, another smile stretching over their lips as they reached to grab a few of the books from her arms. The twang in the girl’s southern accent made Felix smile a little too big, not hearing that often unless it was on television.
“To the counter with these?” Felix asked, assuming that was the next step if she were checking them all out.
“I fuckin’ knew it. Just when you think someone might be a badass, you catch them in their fake sleeves from Amazon, excuse me.” The grin on her face grew to a smile, showing teeth. “Well.” She paused, “I’d like, have to take off my whole pants.” Like just taking half off was an option. Lily looked around for a second, before grabbing the other’s arm pulling her into a more discrete place. She quickly shimmied out of her pants, shameless, exposing the line of tally marks, 35 all together. “So like, this is my running tally. Of all the medals I’ve ever won. And I know it’s really vain, and I should hate myself for it, I kind of love it?” Shrugged, pointing out a few,”Like these ones need to be a bit darker and like, I need two more added to the line.”
“Now that I’m outed, can you just promise to keep it a secret? I can’t let it get out that I, Felix Winter, have fake tattoos,” Felix continued on with the joke, laughing while he spoke. “Oh geez, not the whole pants!” They added in, a tone of sarcasm laced in their words. And then, Lily was grabbing their arm, pulling them off to a little private corner, away from any wandering eyes. Felix expected a picture on her cell phone, or something, but this worked, too. Their blue eyes flashed down at Lily’s newly exposed hips, watching the skin show up as she scooted her pants down. That was Felix’s favorite part of a woman’s body, that little indent where their leg met their hips, and it took them a moment of realizing they weren’t looking at Lily’s tattoos before their eyes shifted over to the ink. “That’s... an interesting way to keep track of your wins, if I’ve ever seen one. What happens when you win so much, you run out of space?” Felix teased her, smiling at their friend. “It’s unique, Lil. Whatever works for you! I’m sure Kala could touch it up.”
“I was in all honesty,” Weezie nodded, taking the book from Felix once she had picked up the others which had been stacked by her feet. “But, there’s a lady who keeps walkin’ by and I didn’t want to get in trouble and be like banned from the library.” Weezie had practically grown up in a library, her mother having been the manager of the local library in her hometown.
“Oh, this is a book of documented weather events in Maine during the 70’s. Exciting, right?” Weezie sighed, looking at the books she had in her arms. She was not looking forward to having to read them.
Felix let out another quiet laugh, almost feeling bad for handing the book to her with that big collection she was already carrying. “Being banned from the library is a serious offense, almost a felony charge, so I’d abide by the rules if I were you, young lady.” Their voice was an almost whisper, just enough tone in there for the girl to recognize Felix was joking around. At least, they hoped so.
“Yeah, that sounds.. like a forced read, if I’m honest. Is that for work or school, or what? I’m going to be surprised if you made that choice on your own.” Felix smiled in the stranger’s direction, eyes flicking down to the stack of books she was practically hugging. “Need some help with those?”
Lily daftly looked down at Felix’s arm with a smile, “Well– I don’t know!” She huffed, despite the now real smile that was there. “They could be fake. You know, one of those sleeves you can buy at walmart to feel like a badass?” She propped a brow up, like she had bulletproof reasoning. “Really– sorry, I should have worded that question twenty times different, I feel a bit like an idiot, but it’ll pass.” The brunette took a second, scanning the other’s arm. it was all really impressive. “I have a thing on my leg” She patted her thigh, “And I need added to it, and it needs a bit of retouching.”
“Yeah, you caught me, Lil,” Felix laughed, rolling their eyes. “I wear these sleeves I got from Amazon, to correct you, every single day. Super realistic, and a steal for $5.99, free shipping!” They joked with her for a minute, before just bursting out into more laughter. “Lemme see! Kala does amazing work really, and I’m sure if she knew I sent you, she’d give you a little discount or something.”
It was frustrating, only standing at 5 feet tall (if she rounded up). Everything was made more difficult: grabbing things at the grocery store, taking things from the cabinets in her kitchen, and now, reaching for the book on the top shelf in the local library.
Hearing someone come up behind her, she stopped struggling on her tip toes and turned around, “Hey, do you think you can grab that big, blue book for me?” She questioned in a low whisper, careful not to disturb the quiet environment.
Felix was meandering around the book store, slowly wading through the isles like a maze. They weren’t even looking for anything in particular, just a good book to read. Prior to all advice Felix had been given in their lifetime, they always judged the book by the cover, sometimes even only the book bind that stuck out when they were all lined up on the shelving. And so far, nothing seemed to pop to them.
Rounding the corner into a new isle, Felix saw a girl on her tip toes trying to reach a book that was clearly way too high up for her. They couldn’t help but to laugh a little, quietly due to the setting, almost coming out in a breath.
“Yeah, lemme-” Felix started to reply, reaching up to pinch the book in their index and thumb, pulling it out from the shelf. They handed it over to her, not even bothering to look at the title. “You looked like you were two seconds away from rock climbing that shelf, seriously. What book is it?”
“Okay so– I’m looking for a good tattoo artist.” She paused, “Like a really good one. And I don’t know– you just looked like maybe you could possibly know.” Lily flashed her attempt of a kind smile, “So uh– do you know one, or am I barking up the wrongest tree, ever?”
“Where do you think I got these from, Lil?” Felix asked, hands rubbing up and down their arm to show off their sleeve of tattoos. “Honestly, every single tattoo I’ve ever gotten has come from Kala, so I recommend her with one-hundred percent certainty that she’d kill anything you want done. What you looking to get?”
11-20
11 - Could you go for the rest of your life without drinking alcohol?
“Could I? If I had to. It’s not my first choice, though. Alcohol makes my shitty moods disappear in a pool of Long Islands, and I usually get free drink tickets when I DJ, so who am I to turn it down? To answer the question though, yes, I could. But I wouldn’t be a happy camper about it.”
12 - Have you pretended to like someone?
“I’d love to say I haven’t, but I was once in denial about my sexual preference when I was young… and we all have those conformist moments before we realize who we really are, so yes, I have once.”
13 - Could you go the rest of your life without smoking a cigarette?
“That one’s a little easier, since I’m not really a smoker.”
14 - Is there a person in your life that can always make you smile?
“Deirdre.”
15 - Is it hard for you to get over someone?
“Somewhat, yeah. When I fall, it’s a hard fall. So recovery takes a little time. It doesn’t happen often enough for me to see it as a pattern though, but I tend to put in all or nothing.”
16 - Think back five months ago, were you single?
“Going strong since 2014.”
17 - Have you ever cried from being so mad?
“It’s only happened once, when I was nineteen. My dad is still a touchy subject, but finding out about his heart attack made me upset and angry all at the same time, because there was nothing I could do to change it. Fix It Felix couldn’t fix this, no matter how much I wanted to.”
18 - Hold hands with anyone this week?
“I love how the question includes ‘this week’. Like next week might be different. And no, I’m not.”
19 - Did your last kiss take place in/on a bed?
”Sure did.”
20 - Who did you last see in person?
“A customer at Loops before closing.”
22, 23, 24.
22 - Have you kissed three or more people in one night?
“I have before, but that’s not the typical night for me.”
23 - Have you ever been to Paris?
“Nope! I’ve always wanted to go there, especially if it’s for a gig.”
24 - Are you good at hiding your feelings?
“If I told you, would I really truly be any good at it?”

Genevieve glanced at the wooden number sign that hung behind a hanger near the door and let out an amused laugh. “Oops, my bad. Sorry about that, love. See I was in such a rush to get in that I forgot to hang it out there. I just assumed that people would actually knock just to see whether the room was occupied or not.” Shrugging on a white silk top that hung on one of the number of hangers that she brought in, she walked to the door and slowly swung it open. “Don’t worry, I’m decent again.” Genevieve smiled. “So,” she clapped both her hands together and spun around. “How do I look? And I do want your honest opinion on this crucial dilemma.” She said as serious as possible.
“Your assumption was wrong,” Felix replied with a playful tone in their voice, laughing. Felix never knocked when it came to dressing rooms, but that was only due to the door markers. Surprisingly, this was the first time they’d actually walked in on someone changing, so this was a little embarrassing for Felix. Usually, Felix assumed this would be the end of their conversation, considering two strangers typically didn’t hang out after something like that happened. If anything, Felix probably would have just been like ‘okay, welp, see you later!’ but, the girl was continuing to speak to them. Since they also weren’t rude, they just accepted it for what it was, assuming maybe the girl didn’t have anyone else here to ask about opinions.
Looking back in her direction at her request, Felix gave the girl’s outfit a once-over, deciding whether or not they liked it. “I like it! Compliments you well. Why is it so crucial though?” Felix laughed, looking over at her suddenly serious demeanor. “Are there multiple contenders?”
“Nah, dude, don’t be sorry at all. I’m happy for you though, all the busyness is just a sign how great your music is going and I’m genuinely glad.” she said with a grin. “Not about never seeing you but glad that you’re keepin’ yourself busy.” she laughed a little. She shut the menu and handed it back to the bartender, not bothering to take a second look at it. “Grateful dead? Sounds intimidating. You’re not going easy on me at all tonight are ya, Fe? I like a challenge so I’ll take it.” she said with a shrug before turning back to the bartender, “Make that two please.” she said with a small nod. Alex leaned forward on the bar and turned back to Felix. “So, what else has been keeping you busy other than DJing, huh Anyone special in the picture?” she said, nudging her friend. “I need to know everything.”
“Thanks,” Felix replied with a big smile in her direction. It was true, Felix’s music career was kind of blowing up, and they were often booked out of town to DJ at various clubs and venues. They were loving it, and even if they were far from being a big name or a celebrity or anything, any amount of attention on their passion was accepted with open arms.
When Alex ordered the same drink, Felix just smiled at her, excited she was joining in. Considering the Grateful Dead was just a sweeter variation on a Long Island Iced Tea, it will essentially get you fucked up pretty quickly. “I hope you’re ready for that commitment,” Felix laughed, eyebrow cocking up. Once the drinks landed in front of them, they grabbed their own, tossing a straw inside before taking a long drawl from the glass. “Mhm, she made ‘em fuckin’ strong, too.” They commented, a crooked grin flashing over to their friend.
Their cheeks flushed just a little bit when Alex brought up the idea of anyone special, not really knowing how to address that question. Felix knew it was going to come up, but they didn’t expect it so quickly, their brain trying to scramble to figure out something to say. “Uh,” they paused, a breathy laugh falling from their lips. “I literally don’t know. That’s a good question though, right? It’s kinda.. complicated, at the moment. Y’know? Love’s a weird thing. I’m still single, in the game, if that’s what you’re asking. Nothing’s locked in, yet.” That was vague enough, right? In an attempt to switch the focus, Felix leaned their elbow on the bar top, hips swiveling to face her. “So, what about you? Gimme the goods. No detail spared.”
