Part 1

When I made the decision to stay home this evening, I had every intention of being productive and checking things off my to do list. Well, my to-do list is currently glaring at me in judgement from the coffee table. But, I did get a couple things accomplished, things like calling my parents to catch up with them since we’ve been playing phone tag for the last week. I also did some laundry so see…I am getting things done. I stick my tongue out at my to-do list, “take that sucka.” I chuckle at my ridiculousness.

I live with my best friend Bethany. We met freshman year and have been inseparable ever since. Beth and her boyfriend Jason are out for the night and part of me is glad, being around them only reminds me how single I am and I don’t need that kind of negativity in my life. I really like hanging out with the both of them and that is the problem. Since I’m always around them, it feels like I’m cramping their style. I hate feeling like the third wheel even though it seems like they don’t mind. In fact, they seem to enjoy my company....but I encouraged them to go out on their own this evening so they can bond as a couple. That’s what couples are suppose to do, right? My heart and my brain disagrees on this subject and I push my emotions behind the spiky, electric fence in my mind where they belong and get back to my list. This is the only way I can keep my focus away from what Beth and Jay might be doing this very minute.

Focus Cat.

Anyway, back to my list…one of the major things on my to-do list is to work on the art piece I’ve been asked to submit for an upcoming art show at the university. I’m really excited about it since usually only graduate students are allowed to participate. So imagine my surprise when I received the email from my department head the other day, I was over the moon. That’s why I can’t let this thing with Beth and Jay get to me. What am I even saying? Jay is Beth’s boyfriend, I am not even involved as anything more than a friend. Maybe I just need a break from all this, I should plan a trip home soon to clear my head and get back on track.

I light a few candles and the smell of exotic flowers fill the room. The ambiance is kinda nice and all I need is a glass of wine an maybe a show. Oh great, am I now Netflix and chilling by myself? I guess I’m pulling out my battery operated boyfriend tonight. It's been a while so I am in need of a good…nay… a GREAT orgasm. I head to the fridge to feed my wine addiction and I hear the telltale sign of a key scraping the lock on the front door. I look to the clock on the stove and it’s still pretty early but I’ll just grab my wine and head to my room.I pull the wine out of the fridge just as I hear the door open and Bethany breezes in with a warm smile.

“How’s my favorite roommate?” She asks with a big smile on her face with Jason, who’s looking sexy as hell, close behind.

“I’m your only roommate,” I say with a wry smile.

She walks over and kisses me on my cheek but lingers a little too long…she’s drunk. I can smell a light trace of alcohol and lemon on her breath. “Someone’s been drinking,” I say, wrapping my arm around her shoulder.

Jay comes over and takes the wine out of my hand and moves to the drawer to grab the opener. “We have, now you need to catch up.” I glance over at him and let my eyes roam down his body while he busies himself with opening the bottle. He’s a tall drink of water standing at about 6’3 with wide shoulders and a trim waist. His long curly hair is around his shoulders, and the beautiful slant of his eyes boasts of his Asian mother. The rich tan of his skin, of his black father. The man is a work of art and I’ve been drooling over him since Beth first brought him around. But she knows this and she teases me non-stop about it.

“See something you like?” She asks. Fuck, see what I mean? My face heats but luckily my dark skin doesn’t give me away.

But Jay must misunderstand the question because his eyes meet mine and then he looks at me from my wine-colored toes up to the mass of curls piled on top of my head. This isn’t a quick trip since his eyes pause at my thighs in cotton pajama short shorts and then again at the thin tank top covering my full breast. I feel my nipples harden at his parasol and that blush I mentioned earlier is now joined by a belly woosh.

I look over at Beth and she is looking at me too and I must be mistaken because it couldn’t be hunger in her eyes as she stares down at my hard nipples.

“Uhhh, what’s going on?” I ask as Jay walks over to me while pouring wine into a glass, bringing it to me.

“Jay and I were talking during dinner, we’ve actually been talking a lot lately and we wanted to talk to you about some things. That’s why we’re back so early."

“Talk about what?” I ask watching as Jay places the wine glass on the counter in front of me.

“Jay’s attracted to you Cat and since I know you’re attracted to him too...we were thinking…you know…” My mouth drops to the floor and I take a step back, shocked. Yes, I’ve been drooling over him but there is no way I’d go behind my best friend’s back and fuck her man.

“You told him that I’m attracted to him?” I ask, a little angry that she’d share something like that.

“No, I wouldn’t do that.” She turned to face me but I could see it in her eyes, she did do something. “But when he told me he wanted to be with you, I knew you were at least attracted to him so this is something we could make happen.”

I take a long swig of my wine, needing something stronger. “What exactly are you saying, Beth?”

“You already know I’m attracted to you. We’ve even messed around a few times.” She said and it’s true, we have. We’ve made out a few times and gone down on each other a few other times. But it wasn’t a big deal, or so I tell myself. Just two people who love each other, helping each other get over a dry spell. We both love dick too much to just be with each other so we never tried to make it a relationship.

“I know but I wouldn’t want to get in the middle of the two of you. What if it doesn’t go well and it becomes awkward?”

Jay moves in closer to me, so close that I have to look up to see him. His dark eyes roam over my face and he reaches up to caress my cheek. “Let me try something.” He leans in closer to my lips until he’s just a breath away and then holds, waiting for me to give him the green light. I stare transfixed by his dreamy amber-colored eyes, his lids hanging heavy with need that he doesn’t even attempt to hide. I bite my bottom lip and his eyes follow the movement. “Let me taste you, love and if you don’t like it we’ll stop.” If I don’t like it!?! Yeah, right. I should check in with Beth but for the life of me, I can’t tear my eyes away from Jay. I feel heat at my back right before two hands reach around my body and palm my breast. I moan at the contact and lean in to Jay for a slow wet kiss. Beth molds her body behind me and I’m surrounded by sensation. Jay licked into my mouth, grinding his hips into my belly. Beth rolls my nipples between her fingers and place lazy kisses across my shoulders. My body catches fire with sensation and I can’t decide whether I should lean farther into Jay or back into Beth. Luckily, I don’t have to decide, Jay grabs my hips, pulling me closer and grinding against my belly. Beth lowers the straps of my tank top and frees my full breast. Her small agile fingers pull and pluck at my nipples I squirm under both of their ministrations.

Jay breaks off the kiss and moans as he drags his lips down over my chin and to my throat. “You’re so fucking sexy, tell me you want this as much as we do.” I arch my back and my head falls on Beth’s shoulder as Jay makes his way across my collarbone, kissing, sucking, and licking my heated skin.

“We were talking about you tonight,” Beth shares. “I told him how good and soft you are and how sweet your pussy taste.” She says between kisses.

Jay moves down to my breast and Beth lifts one and offers it to him. He slowly licks around my areola and I feel my skin tighten. My nipples are so hard and so needy, I just need him to suck it already. I grab a handful of his hair and beg, “Please.” I feel his warm mouth surround my nipple and he sucks it deep. I feel the pull in my pussy but he pulls his mouth away too fast.

“Why don’t we move this to a bed,” Beth suggests and I try to calm down and catch my breath. But there is one thing I need to do before we go.

I turn around and wrap my arms around Beth’s waist. She smiles at me and I move in to take her mouth. I kiss her long and deep.

“Fuck.” Jay swears, as I push her against the wall and suck on her tongue. I feel Jay behind me palming my ass and I moan into Beth’s mouth. “Come on you two…bed…now,” Jay says as he slaps my ass.

We break off the kiss, “Okay bossy,” Beth says and I laugh.

“Someone’s impatient,” I say.

“Fuck yeah, do you know how hot that was?” He asks.

“Uh yeah, I was there so… I know how hot it was.” Beth teases.

After blowing out the candles in the living room, we make our way down the short hallway to Beth’s room.
