Adelaide was waiting for her date. She had matched with a girl name Katerina that had intrigued her. She wasn't sure exactly how to explain it, but as she looked through the woman's profile, she felt like there was something almost too idealistic of the way that she painted herself. Like she was trying to make herself out to be a some sort of book character. It was definitely odd and if she was somebody else she might think differently of going on a date with this woman, but she did look pretty so she wanted to try. If things went well, that would be great for her. If they hooked up, that would be even better.
She was pretty sure that the last time she hadn't had writer's block was the last time that she had sex, which had been a long time ago.
It was a little ridiculous, but something like that got her brain going. It would make her anxiety lessen a little as well.
Adelaide tapped her fingers on the table as she waited. She was in a fancy french diner that she wasn't used to and was thinking about all the ways that she could possibly screw this up. Her mind tried to screw with her in things like this.
Tick, tick, tick. The clock behind her was annoying. She wanted more than anything to take it off the walls. Tick, tick, tick. She was ten minutes early so it was really her fault that Katerina wasn't here yet. Still, she was antsy. Tick, tick, tick.
Finally, a young woman with raven black hair in curls that bounced up and down started walking towards the table. She was a deep blue romper with a v neck that left nothing to the imagination, and Adelaide could tell that she did not edit her pictures. She smiled a pearlescent white smile and held out her hand. "Hello, Adelaide. It's so nice to meet you."
