chrissy who gets a little flustered when robin is making breakfast in a tank top and boy shorts. chrissy whose mind goes blank when she watches nancy apply lipstick in the entryway mirror. chrissy who never hears them, because they’re respectful and wait until she leaves the dorm, but comes home from the library early one night. chrissy who stands frozen at the front door, unsure of whether to make her presence known or not. chrissy who has never heard sex sound like that and is warm all over.

chrissy who suppresses it and tries to meet nice men on campus but their kisses and touches are wrong in a way she can't explain. chrissy who gets drunk at a frat party with nancy and admits she’s never had an orgasm. nancy who shares a knowing look with robin and says, “come knock on our door sometime when you’re not half a bottle of wine deep.”

chrissy who doesn’t stop thinking about that comment for weeks. chrissy who is turning down guys left and right. chrissy who is trying, trying, trying to make herself feel the way she hears them feel but can’t. chrissy who puts on a cute pajama set and hypes herself up in the mirror. chrissy who hears robin and nancy giggling behind their door as her fist hovers over the wood. chrissy who raps her knuckles faintly.

Robin: Never have I ever. . . Had an orgy!

She expected no one to drink but then she watched, in shock, as Steve, Eddie, Chrissy, and Nancy took a shot.

Steve: Wait, was it an orgy? Don't you need a certain number of people?

Eddie: I don't know, man. I never had one before, well, us.

Robin: Oh my God! Is that why you didn't invite us to your double date last weekend?!

Steve: No lesbian platonic soulmates.

Chrissy: or cousins.

Robin: Nancy!

Nancy: *grins* It was fun, especially when Chrissy -

Vickie: *Shrieks* That's my cousin!

Robin dove and put her hands over Vickie's ears.
