Roommate’s Mixed Messages
Eric (Nathan Bronson) sees his uninhibited roommate Sylvie (Laney Grey) wearing only a long T-shirt. We see hints that he finds her attractive. But Sylvie, a lesbian, only sees Eric as a buddy, and is unaware of his attraction to her. Sylvie reminds Eric that her girlfriend Marian (Spencer Bradley) will be coming over tomorrow. She then removes her T-shirt to put it in the laundry, walking around nude. Unbeknownst to her, Eric looks frustrated and resentful.
The next day, Eric accidentally sees Sylvie and Marian having sex, because Sylvie left her bedroom door open. The girls treat it like no big deal, unaware of Eric’s increasing frustration. That frustration grows even more a few days later, when Eric returns home from the gym and Sylvie feels up his muscles and slaps his ass in a playful ‘buddy’ kind of way, still not noticing Eric’s simmering resentment.
On another day, Eric comes home early from work, and is annoyed to hear Sylvie having sex again. Fed up, he decides to go to her room to ask her to close her door. However, when Eric arrives at the doorway to Sylvie’s bedroom, he is surprised to see that Sylvie is cheating on Marian with another woman, Paula (Leana Lovings). Sylvie leads Eric away so she can talk to him in another room.In the living room, Sylvie asks Eric to keep her cheating a secret, since they’re buddies.
But Eric snaps, saying that Sylvie’s behavior is messing with his head. He says that he’s going to move out, and he’s going to tell Marian about the cheating. Sylvie becomes worried at Eric’s claim that he’s going to tell Marian about the cheating. She offers to have sex with him to clear the air, in the hopes of making things cool between them again. Eric agrees, but says he wants it right NOW… and he wants Paula to join in.
