Chapter Nine

This was possibly the worst idea Alessandra had ever had in her life. In a list of things she should never, ever do, this was probably somewhere at the top: inviting her lesbian girlfriend to family brunch.

She had no clue why her mother had agreed to it. She had no clue how she gathered enough courage to ask her about it. Of course, she didn’t ask if she could invite her lesbian girlfriend to brunch, just dropped into conversation that there was no easier way to see how Cheyenne and more importantly her company were doing than to just chat with her about it.

Her mother had looked at her evenly for a solid minute where Alessandra’s soul nearly left her body out of sheer nerves, then smiled and agreed as if it were no big deal.

So, there Alessandra was, answering the door to Cheyenne, who looked like a dream come true in a cream and blue suit, unapologetically butch, but whose image Alessandra couldn’t enjoy because she was too busy having a series of consecutive heart attacks.

“Hi,” she said, smiling politely at Cheyenne like she was a friendly acquaintance and not the woman who had lovingly fucked her a bare week ago. “Please, come in. You’re early, you’re the first guest to arrive.”

“I wouldn’t want to be late,” Cheyenne said as friendly and politely, thought that was more because being friendly and polite was the baseline for Cheyenne than because she was trying to put up a front. Her eyes roamed around the house—huge, white, golden—as if expecting the devil to jump out of a corner.

“I’m glad you didn’t bring Jason,” Alessandra whispered, taking advantage of how she had her back to her parents. “I forgot to tell you it was better not to.”

Cheyenne didn’t answer, eyes veering to Alessandra’s parents, but widened her smile slightly.

Then her eyes widened.

“I didn’t know you were invited!” Xander exclaimed, visibly delighted. He wound an arm around Alessandra and reached out for a handshake, smiling at Cheyenne like she had just made his day. “Do you remember me?”

“Yes. You were Ally’s date at the reunion,” Cheyenne said. She didn’t look unhappy about how close Xander was standing to Alessandra, but she had a general aura of sadness about her.

Alessandra pursed her lips.

“He’s a dear friend,” she said, like the idiot she was, because her mother was somewhere behind her and definitely listening. Xander tightened his fingers at her waist in warning. “Nothing’s official yet,” Alessandra added in a whisper, as if sharing a joyful secret. It felt like ash in her mouth.

“I see,” Cheyenne said politely.

“Come in, come in,” Alessandra said. “I’ll show you to the parlor where we brunch.”

***

When they walked into the parlor, Cheyenne did not react in any way that hinted at the fact she might not be used to such levels of richness, either by becoming impressed or intimidated, which Alessandra could see made Xander smile and her mother look disgruntled.

They sat down; Alessandra’s father, who had been focused on something on his phone, finally looked up and caught sight of Cheyenne.
