Author's Note: I wrote this as an exercise to see if I could have a
story be carried almost entirely through dialogue. I feel that often
enough writers use narration as a crutch rather than a tool and I am
trying to break that habit. I am entirely open to constructive
criticism so feel free to offer it in reviews and let me know what works
and what doesn't.

"Wow, that boy cannot pass at all!"
"He's new, give him time. It's not his fault the other quarterbacks are
out this week. At least it's an easy win for Washington."
"I bet Christie's really enjoying this one. Remember last year? The
playoffs? That 56 yard run that got her on her feet? She started
shaking that fine ass of hers and shouting at the TV? Oh come on I know
you remember that ass!"
"Yeah, why aren't we watching the game with her again?"
"Because I don't want my boyfriend watching some other girl in front of
a TV shaking her ass!"
"You know we're just friends. That and this game was over at halftime
so there's no way she's that excited. But, uhm, wait, you think she has
a 'fine ass'?"
"She does, doesn't she? You got a problem with me saying that?"
"No." He held her closer. "But she's a lesbian so there won't be
anything more between us. Besides, I'd never cheat on you, you know
that. I'm getting the feeling you want to tell me something. Please.
You know you can talk to me."
"I don't know. I know you aren't a cheater and you know how I feel
about you. Really, you're the best boyfriend I've had. There's no way
I'm going to risk losing you."
He kissed her forehead. "So you think I'll leave you if you open up to
me? Then I promise you right now I won't judge you for whatever it is.
We need to be able to talk to each other about things."
"Alright, it's just that- and please don't take this the wrong way- I
sometimes wonder what it'd be like to make out with a woman and, you
know..."
"That's fine. There's nothing wrong with that. Were you hoping I'd let
you hook up with someone? I'd like to but open relationships aren't for
me. I tried it once. I wanted it to work but that wasn't enough."
"What if we had a three-way with another girl? I'd bet you'd like
that!"
"Honey, those girls are called 'unicorns' for a reason. And I don't
think either of us really want to share each other. I'm okay with you
having fantasies but that's really going to have to stay that way while
we're together. Are you okay with that?"
"I don't know."
"What do you mean, 'you don't know'? You should know whether you're
okay with staying faithful to me."
"I mean I don't want to talk about it right now! I didn't want to talk
about it in the first place! Just watch your damn game. I'm going
out."
"No. I'll head out. I'll go watch the game with Christie and you can
change the channel. You aren't the one who has to worry about a
wandering partner right now."
"Yeah, I just have to worry about my boyfriend being a liar! You
promised you wouldn't judge me! I'm not going to go behind your back,
okay?"
"I meant it. It's okay that you like women. Fine, I take it back. I
don't think you'll cheat. I'm just confused right now. We'll talk
later after we cool off."
He turned back at the door. "I still love you."
"I love you too. Go. Tell Christie I said 'Hi'."
*****
Christie answered the knock at her door. "Hey, Aaron. What's wrong?"
"Emily and I had a fight. I just needed to get away for a bit. Are you
watching the game?"
"You know it! What do you think of the new Cardinals quarterback?"
"He has potential but he needs experience. Got a beer to spare?"
"Sure, I was about to get another myself. You can sit wherever."
He let himself drop onto a recliner. She returned with two cold cans
and sat nearby. "Let's be honest; the game's a blowout. Spill it."
"Emily told me she's into women. She wants to experiment but she says
she won't cheat and I don't want another open relationship after the
last one. I asked her if she was okay with keeping it a fantasy
and...well, here we are."
"I don't do three-ways. Nothing personal, I mean you're cute for a guy
but-"
"Nor do we. I'm only here to talk. I don't know what to do. I feel
like any choice I make now might push her away. I don't want to lose
her but I also want her to be happy."
"Yeah, I don't envy you right now." They finished their beers in
silence. "Want another?"
"Sure. But what am I going to do?"
"One minute." She returned with two more cans. "So here's what I'm
seeing. She wants to have sex with women. She loves you but you aren't
a woman. Either she decides it's just a fantasy and you both leave it
at that..."
"And she leaves me as soon as she gets bored of me."
"Maybe not. Or you let her have some no-strings-attached fun with a
girl..."
"And she leaves me when she realizes she's bored of me!"
"Calm down. Is this really making you insecure?"
"She told me I wasn't enough for her, didn't she? How am I supposed to
respond?"
"No, I doubt that's how she feels but you should try being enough for
her and that...I don't know what I'm trying to say here. I guess what I
mean is what if you were that woman?"
"Okay, you lost me."
"I mean what if she got to act out her fantasy of being with a woman
with you as the woman? Roleplaying is great for some couples. She gets
some satisfaction without having to go outside the relationship and you
get the satisfaction of being the only one she wants or something like
that. You know what? Forget it, it's a crazy idea."
"It could work. I'll ask her if she wants to try it but I don't think
I'd make for an attractive woman."
"Really? You know I'm good with makeup, right? I'm looking at you and
I'm thinking all we'd need is a decent wig, maybe a fake nose, a bit of
foundation, some contouring, a bit of eyeliner, some lipstick and you'd
look fine."
"This isn't the first time you've thought about doing this to me is it?"
"Hey, artists get bored. We like thinking up challenges. Go talk to
her about it. If she likes the idea you can come over here in a week or
so and I'll get you dressed up. You can come with me out to "Choice"
and she can meet you at the bar there. They get guys in drag all the
time."
"Wait, you aren't going to do anything too flashy with the makeup, are
you?"
"No, we're going for an ordinary look for you. I'm just saying that
even if they could tell they won't mind. Forget all that for now, the
Giants and Eagles are playing in a bit. Want to stay and watch with me?
I've got habanero salsa and tortilla chips! They're the good ones. I
fried them before the game started."
"Sounds like a plan. Emily's probably out with friends now too."
*****
Aaron returned to the apartment exhausted. "Emily, are you here? How
was your Monday?"
"Hey sweetie. It was the usual gossip and paperwork; nothing special.
How about you?"
"We finished the foundation and got a few walls started. Billy threw
out his back again. I don't know why he's in this job, though I guess
it's the same reason we all are."
"We have to do what we have to do!"
"That's about it."
"Spaghetti's ready if you're hungry and I warmed up some of that French
bread from the freezer."
They sat across from each other at the kitchen table and had their fill
before discussing the matter on their minds. "Christie and I were
talking yesterday about the argument we had."
"Why does she need to know about our problems?"
"She doesn't need to know but she's our friend. She cares about both of
us and I had to talk to someone. So she had an idea and-"
"You're okay with us hooking up?"
"No and that wasn't the idea. I've known her longer than I've known you
and she wouldn't do that. I didn't ask but trust me. The idea she had
was for us to try roleplaying. I could get made up as a woman and you
can meet me in public. We flirt for a while, you take me back to 'your'
place and we see where it goes."
"I can see where it wouldn't go. I don't think I'd be okay with you
cross-dressing."
"Why not? You said you like both men and women, right?"
"Yeah, but not- I mean, it's okay but I didn't think you..."
"You didn't think I...what?"
"You're too manly to be a girl, aren't you?"
"You think I can't be feminine? Why not?"
"No, it's just...I don't need you to do this. I don't need to be with a
woman or...I'm not going to leave you if you don't but..."
"Does it sound like fun to you? That's all I need to know. If you want
to try it just say the word and we can make plans for next weekend. You
can pick me up at "Choice". It's the best place for it."
"I guess we can try it on Saturday if it's what you want."
"I'll let Christie know. She'll be helping me get ready."
"Okay. So I guess you can be my girl this weekend but right now I need
you to be my man. Does that sound more like it?"
"Absolutely. I'm all yours and you are all mine tonight. We won't let
our worries get between us."
"Hearing my man say that is all I needed."
"It seems fair after all. Go get out of those clothes and hop on the
bed. I'll get some music playing."
*****
"Hey Aaron, how was the week? Ready for the big evening? Thanks for
shaving already."
"Hey, Christie. Let's just get it over with."
"You don't sound very excited. Did she insist you go through with it?"
"I don't want to talk about it. Did you find a dress in my size?"
"Actually I got a green blouse and skirt combo. It has a high neckline
so you can get away with just a padded bra. There's also some leggings
and sandals so it really should be easy to wear. Go sit in the bathroom
and I'll do your makeup."
He sat in front of the mirror on a stool. "What sort of makeup are you
using on me?"
"Nothing fancy, I'm pretty sure I can do it all with contours and
highlights. I'll start with the primer. It's so everything else goes
on smoothly. Hold still. Has Emily ever tried to put makeup on you?"
"No. I've joked with her about it before but she wasn't interested."
"Okay. That's interesting. That should be set so next I'll apply the
foundation. This should be the right shade. Oh yeah, it's close
enough. You're lucky. It can take a while to find the right color for
some women. How does that look so far?"
"It's...really even and flat but it's supposed to be at this point,
right?"
"Exactly. You've seen women put on makeup before haven't you?"
"Sure, I watch my girl do it all the time. It's sort of fascinating,
really."
"When you came in here you were acting like I was your dentist and now
you tell me you think it's 'fascinating'. If you like it just say so."
"I'll never admit to enjoying this."
"You won't admit it but that doesn't mean you don't like it! Oh come
on, what do you think's going to happen if you say it?"
"I don't know but I'm still not going to admit it."
"Fine. Do you really need me to explain the rest of this? I think you
know what all of these are."
"No, just let me watch in the mirror. Tell me the product and brand
names as you go if you don't mind."
"I don't mind but seriously, is this really all for Emily?"
"Of course. You remember what I said about her liking women."
*****
"So, how does it fit?"
"Great but I can't wait to get out of all of this. I hope Emily
appreciates what I'm doing for her."
"Sure. 'For her'. Let's get going. Have you picked a girl name yet?"
" 'May'. I've always liked that name."
"Why not just go by 'Erin'? We're taking my car, just put that bag in
the back seat."
"I don't know. I just don't feel like an 'Erin' right now."
*****
"So, what do you think of the place? They usually have some guy playing
an acoustic set on Saturday evenings."
"Tell me he doesn't play 'Wonderwall' "
"Oh no, we'd chase him off the stage for that. He has a great "Little
Wing" cover though. Anyway, you look like you're ready. Did you decide
if you were approaching her or the other way around?"
"She'll approach me at the bar. I'm going to send her a pic so she'll
know I'm here."
"Awesome. I'll leave you two alone. If you need me for anything I'll
be at the pool tables."
Aaron quickly made himself comfortable at the bar and ordered a beer. A
picture was sent to Emily with the note "Come talk to her".
It didn't take long for Emily to arrive and introduce herself. "Whoa,
Christie has some skills!"
"Oh, hello, I don't think we've met. I'm 'May' and you are...?"
"Emily. I, uhm, think you're cute."
"Thanks! You don't look so bad either!"
"So, May, want to say something about yourself? You new around here?"
"Yeah, I'm from Reno. I was a waitress out there but I got tired of it.
The people at work were so gross and there wasn't anything there for me.
I was hoping to settle down here and just enjoy the slow life, maybe
find a nice girl who likes me. Am I right in guessing you're here for
the same thing?"
"Oh yeah, I...I'm all about women. Women are so, so..."
"This isn't working for you is it?"
"I'm sorry, Aaron. I get that you really wanted to do this but-"
"No I didn't! I did this for you! I didn't want this!"
"Calm down. Okay, first of all I need you to calm the hell down. We
aren't having this argument again."
"You started it when you told me you needed to be with a woman!"
"No, this began a long time ago. You always liked going with me when I
went to get makeup and clothes at the mall. Don't lie. But whenever
I'd say something about you liking it you'd get all angry and defensive
so I'd drop it. Really, so what if you liked girly things? You were a
really nice guy most of the time. I figured if you wanted to be treated
manly I could definitely do that. Then you bring this up and I'm
thinking that maybe, finally, you were ready to be honest with yourself.
So I agree to play along and I'm trying but- You got to admit that you
like this. You can't use me like this by acting like I forced you to
dress like a girl. I didn't. You know I didn't."
"This isn't me. I'm not some guy who..."
"Don't finish that sentence."
"I'm not a fucking faggot!"
"Boy, did you just forget where the hell you are? This isn't some
construction site where the guys are all whipping out their dicks for
measuring! I'm fine with cross-dressing but I'll be damned if I'm going
to stay with a liar!"
"I've never lied to you!"
"It isn't me who needs your honesty. We're done. If you want to leave,
go tell Christie. I'll get my stuff tonight. You can have the
apartment, I don't care."
"No, Emily, wait, I'm sorry! I love you!"
"Sure. And.. I want to love you but...I don't think you love yourself
right now. Right now you want to use me so you don't have to deal with
things and until you learn to deal with those things without me I don't
see 'us' happening."
"Aren't couples supposed to be there for each other? To help each
other? That's what people in love do isn't it?"
"Yeah, but I can't help you because you don't want real help."
"I don't understand."
"Call me when you get it. Take care of yourself while I'm gone."
*****
"Drinks are on me! Well, actually you can thank Jerry for missing that
corner shot. Oh well, he can afford to lose once in a while. Hey,
where's Emily? What happened?"
"She left me. That bitch...here's your fucking wig back. I'm going to
go scrub this shit off-"
"Look, I'm sorry. And that's the long-lasting stuff so you'll need
makeup remover. Let's go back to my place for a bit. We can watch an
action movie if you want or just blow off some steam. This looks like a
job for some Red Label Johnnie Walker and it just so happens I keep an
emergency bottle for times like this. I could tell you some stories
about women. Don't think we have it any easier! Come on."
"I'm not a queer."
"You say that like it's a bad thing." She defended him from stares as
they made their exit. "Yeah, he shouldn't have said that but who hasn't
hated themselves at some point? He's alright, really."
*****
"Dude, did you see that? Right in the fucking throat!"
"Hey, the bastard had it coming. If I had a daughter and some asshole
threatened her he'd be lucky if all he got was a sword through his neck.
Pour me another glass of that whiskey, will you?"
"Sure thing but this is the last of it. You're paying for the next
bottle. This is not the cheap stuff you know!"
"I know. I owe you and you know I'm good for it. Really though, I
thought Emily and I were doing alright."
"Don't dwell on it. It won't do you any good. Just let yourself feel
angry or sad or whatever it is you need to feel right now."
"I can't believe I let her talk me into dressing up like that and then
when I do it she dumps me because of it."
"Stop trying to understand it. There are plenty of other women out
there. You'll find someone else. Did you want to watch another movie?"
"No, I'm tired. I just need to sleep this whole fucking night off. You
don't mind if I crash on the couch here do you? I don't want to go back
to an empty apartment like this."
"Go right ahead. I'll get you a blanket then hit the sheets myself."
"Thanks. You're a great friend."
"I'm the best aren't I? Drink some water before you fall asleep,
though. I don't want to deal with two nasty hangovers in the morning."
When Christie had crawled out of bed late Sunday morning Aaron, the
green blouse, two bras and several makeup items were nowhere to be
found.
