He Called Me Amy
I am a fictional character, in name and spirit. I enjoy fire and necromancy, and making heterosexual adventure stories as queer as physically possible.
I’m waiting for the G-train heading to Church Ave. I’m smirking and laughing to myself and clutching my bag in my right hand, the day’s value existing in self-discovery and comic books.
He took the G-train heading towards Court Sq. I watched it disappear from across the platform and my tears turned to giggles. He tried to kiss me at the Strand, he tried to kiss me on the L-train, and one level up, at Lorimer Street, he kissed me before we parted ways.
I wipe away traces of saliva from my lips, letting it collect on my sleeve with the crumbs of the salad I made myself buy.
I want to text my friends, thank them for their assistance, but there’s no service underground when you’re waiting for the G-train.
“I don’t want you think I’m just trying to get out of our date…”
“No, no, I don’t. And if you were, you’re the best actress I’ve ever met.”
I’m waiting for the G-Train heading to Church Ave. I feel like a bitch and I’m proud of myself. I block him on OkCupid.
My name is Anders.

Gender-ambiguity is a favourite theme of mine. Handled nicely.

Intriguing. Has a heady feel to it that fits the rush of initial romantic contact.

I like the contrast between the title and last line. Perhaps better dates are in the future.
