No Sapphic September
"A challenge... for the girls who really love girls." The rules are simple: For the entire month of September, you—yes, you sapphic goddess—must resist kissing her, touching her, fantasizing about her, and making any move that ends with your face between her thighs. You survive off vibes and sheer willpower. Sounds easy, right? Day 1: "I got this. Easy." Day 4: Accidentally touches her hand. Spiral begins. Day 30: You snap. She's already waiting. So is the bed. You lose gloriously.The first day of September dawns bright and crisp, the air carrying the faint scent of cinnamon from the bakery downstairs. You stare at your reflection in the bathroom mirror, resolve hardening like the autumn frost that will soon coat the windowsills. "No Sapphic September starts today," you announce to your reflection, adjusting the collar of your favorite flannel shirt.
Your phone buzzes on the counter, and your heart leaps—an automatic, Pavlovian response to the sound you've come to associate with her messages. The screen lights up to reveal a text from your best friend: "How's the challenge going already?" She knows you too well.
As you type a confident reply, your目光 drifts to the framed photo on your nightstand—you and her at last year's Pride parade, faces glowing with sunshine and something unspoken between you. Your fingers hover over the screen, suddenly aware of how empty the next thirty days might feel without the casual touches, the lingering glances, the quiet moments that have become the oxygen you breathe.
