“I’m seriously fucked this time,
” I said to my best friend
Hunter as I checked my email for the thousandth time to see
if any of the jobs I’d put in applications for had gotten back
to me.
Nothing.
Hunter grabbed a fry from the basket in front of me and
rolled her big blue eyes. “You always say that, and then
somehow everything always works out.”
“I mean, sort of. I wish ‘working out’ led to actual
consistent employment and not me patching jobs together
here and there that are never long term. The stress is going
to kill me.”
Hunter gave me a sympathetic look and squeezed my arm
across the sticky table. She had treated me to lunch today,
but I was having trouble choking down my fish and chips,
even though it was normally one of my favorite things.
“I’m sorry, my love. I wish I could help more.” She
opened her mouth to tell me, for what felt like the millionth
time, that she could loan me some money, but I put my hand
up to stop her. We’d done this little dance too many times
before and I was never going to let her do it. Other than
buying me lunch, and giving me leads on jobs, and just being
my best friend, I couldn’t accept more. Even if she had
money to spare from her parents. It was a line I refused to
cross.
“Can we please talk about something other than the
crushing weight of my life?” I asked.
She perked up and smiled. “Mmmm, maybe we can talk
about going out to Sapph next week? I know it’s weird with
you working there sometimes, but it’s the only place with so
many hot queer people around.” She had me there.
Our other friend, Reid, had hooked me up bartending a
few times at Sapph, the only bar in the entire state of Maine
that catered to queer women.
I sighed. “Fine. We can go and pester Reid to make us
annoyingly complicated drinks.”
Hunter snorted. “Yeah, she loves it when we do that.”
“What are friends for?”
I choked down the rest of my lunch and we took a walk
down the pier. Summer had fully arrived, and the place was
crawling with tourists who walked too slow and took up too
much room. But that was the price you paid for living here.
By mid-September, everyone cleared out and peace was
restored until the next summer season.
“Let’s find some shade,
” I said, looking at my arms. I’d
put on my regular layer of sunscreen, but that had been a
while ago. No matter what I did, my pale, freckled skin
seemed determined to burn every year. The curse of being a
natural redhead.
Hunter claimed a bench near the ice cream stand, and I
thumped down next to her.
