The Glare at Dusk

By William Hatfield

Spring Break 2001.

Izzy Martelli is in Key West. Her future is planned. She will graduate, go to law school, and build a practice in Key West. Eventually, she will meet a beautiful lesbian, just like herself, and fall in love.

Diane Sparks works at Lowe's, takes college art classes, and has no real goals. She decides to ride her Harley to Key West and see if it's a good fit for her future home.

Cruising Duval Street, Diane sees a beautiful brunette. Diane is dazzled. Izzy is less impressed. A heavily tattooed biker chick is not the girl of her dreams. They keep crossing paths, and the last night in town, they hang out together, talking and dancing. Diane gives Izzy a sketch of her she drew the night before.

Izzy goes to law school. 9/11 motivates Diane to enlist in the Army. Izzy keeps the sketch, and occasionally wonders what happened to that shy, awkward girl. Diane thinks of little except the Army and Izzy.

Fast forward to fall of 2005. Izzy opens her law practice in Key West, and Diane moves there, chasing old dreams.

Will they reconnect? Is there a chance of a relationship between them?
