You realized something... and because of that you have trouble sleeping.

Falling asleep turns out to be a bit of a strenuous task. Your mind is racing. Your thoughts ping-pong around the shock of finding the sisters under the staircase, stripping Olivia naked, the emotional outburst of both you and Vanessa, the kiss, the relief of seeing Olivia awake, the amusing joke insult that followed it, the undeniably... wait...

Olivia was right though. You did kiss another girl. It wasn't out of curiosity either. It was a heat-of-the-moment kind of thing, sure, but it was still out of passion and attraction. You kissed Vanessa because something inside your body told you that you really wanted to. You can't deny that you sorta kinda liked it a little bit. It was quite adequate. A decent experi- ah, who are you kidding? You loved it. You are not certain if it's romantic feelings towards Vanessa in particular or if it's pure sexual attraction, but it was definitely great.
You don't know if pursuing this would be a good idea though? Sure, Vanessa is gorgeous, but if she doesn't share the same sentiment, and it was just a fluke based on adrenaline, then things could get really awkward around here. And making things really awkward and uncomfortable for a woman who is staying at your place out of necessity seems a bit cruel. You don't even really know her. You don't even know her last name, or how two beautiful and kind women like her and her sister ended up on the streets. Maybe it would be for the best if you just acted naturally, and if things develops, you embrace it. Yeah... that seems like the right thing to do.

You still can't sleep. Your thoughts race again.

Soooo... you really are a lesbian, huh? Somehow, that realization doesn't seem to surprise you as much as you thought it would. Have you never really thought about it before now? Who the hell is still confused about their sexuality at 21? Wait, is that a normal thing? You don't really know. You'll have to look it up sometime. Maybe you have always kind of known, but you have just been so busy getting away from your parents that you didn't really have the time or mental energy to focus and explore this side of yourself. You did spend a lot of your teenage years focusing on escaping your inherited guilt, and once you got to Madison, you have spend two years setting up a business and running it. Not exactly the most common way to spend your youth. Maybe you have some catching up to do.

You thought that your realization of your homosexuality would have made you feel ashamed. You aren't though. You are not ecstatic either. You're just kind of the same as before. It's just a thing. You're gay. Whatever. It doesn't mean anything. Okay, it does mean that your dating options have severely decreased, but other than that...

You think that you might be thinking too much.

Why the hell can't you fall asleep anyway? This is just so fucking typical. The one day you would love to get a good night's sleep, and you can't do it. Come on fall asleep already. Do it. Come on. Sleep. SLEEEEEEP! Sleep goddamnit. Why can't you just fall asle-

You fall into a deep slumber.
