“okay, so,” dixie started as she plopped down across from her friend and let out a puff of air. she didn’t really want to talk about it but she had to tell billie. she was the girl’s other best friend and if she couldn’t tell her, who could she tell? “the reason i invited you to lunch is because i’ve had something on my mind and i really just wanted to tell you in person,” she paused, trying to figure out how to say it. she rambled when she got nervous and rambling was unlike dixie, and she knew billie knew that. “so, you know how me and arty went to the party together? well, it was normal and we were hanging out and we started drinking or whatever and then like, he started saying sweet things and i just kinda wondered why like, i never tried anything with arty and normally, i would’ve reminded myself it was because he’s my best friend but i didn’t even think about it and i kissed him.” she put her face in her hands for a moment, her cheeks getting red at the memory, “and like, i’m not sure if he kissed me back but he did pull away and said we’re going to give people the wrong idea and it’s like...is being together the wrong idea? i just, i feel so stupid and i’m so embarrassed. i don’t even know what to do or say to him now.” she admitted and looked back up at her friend. “i just, i thought maybe...arty would want me out of everyone in tupelo, you know?”
