*****
He's my best friend and has been since we were kids. He used to fix my bike and I'd help him deliver papers in the mornings. We went all the way through school and are still best friends ten years later. We've never gone out and we've neither been married and we've each had a lot of friends and a few lovers and we're still friends.
My best friend has always been there for me and is my best buddy. She's cute and really a great girl but we're just friends. I did think about asking her out once, but if things didn't work out I didn't want to lose my friend. Besides we talk a lot about everything. Nothing is ever off limits and we've had some pretty intimate conversations about our lives. I know almost everything about her and she knows most about me.
I'll never figure it out how I can have such a good male friend and yet never find a guy that I want to marry. I've been with a few guys that turned me on, but after awhile they've also turned me off. He's always been different because I can even tell him how turned on I get and how a guy satisfied me or how the guy didn't. No matter what he'll listen and offer me help and advice. I'll love him to death as a friend. I even wanted him to ask me out once, but I'm glad he never did because he's still my friend.
Several months ago I got an invitation to our tenth reunion from school and I thought it would be fun to go and see how the guys and gals I knew in school had changed. I also wanted to see some of the gals that I'd always thought were hot but that always seemed to be taken by someone when I was free. I already knew what had happened to some old girlfriends and my best friend has kept me appraised on a few others. I wanted to know about them but not one of them appealed to me then because I was going with this knockout chick I'd met six months ago.
I hadn't been with a guy for over six months, in fact it was about the same time my friend met his latest. I've been chaste since then and I've been really, really horny. I need a guy that likes me and wants me and that I can talk to and we can make love all day and night if we like. I feel so horny that I'd probably sleep with the manager in my apartments if he asked, and he's over sixty.
My new girl was very nice and we hit it off really well. Even our appetites for sex seemed to match. For the first five months we couldn't get enough of each other, but like usual it started to cool about six weeks ago. I'd already paid for the reunion and even though she was three years younger than I was I wanted to show her off. It started to cool just as I'd always been afraid it would and I started to worry. I took off work at noon on a Tuesday and drove home. I found her fucking the guy from downstairs in my bed.
I'd received information on the reunion, too, but had no one to go with so I tossed it. I was really surprised when my friend called last week and asked if I wanted to go. I asked about his girl friend and he'd explained it all. I'd been so busy with work that it had been over a month since we'd talked and now I really felt bad about neglecting him. I found that he'd been through this on his own for over a month. I wasn't sure that I should but when he told me that he had tickets and there was no way to get his money back from the hotel and reunion committee I agreed.
In other ways my new gal was so great that I've thought a lot about taking her back, and she called to apologize a dozen times, but if you can't trust someone what do you do? I'd refused to see her again and she'd stopped calling although I saw her car out front several times and thought I heard her voice one night as I walked upstairs to my empty apartment. I just assumed that she was still with him.
I had bought a new pickup. I'd always wanted one and the guys all had them and thought they were cool. Is a gal sexy in a pickup? I wanted to see. So two months ago I went down and got a new one. It's a deep red with big wheels, a king-cab, automatic four wheel drive and a black cover over the back and I love it. When I agreed to go I insisted that we go in my truck and that I drive. He wasn't sure about me driving, but because so many class members had moved away the committee had moved the reunion to a larger town about eighty miles away so he agreed. I hadn't even been certain that his old clunker would make it that far without breaking down.
Last week when I called my buddy she was amazed that I'd broken up again and I'd poured my heart out to her. She was a good listener. Suddenly I remembered the reunion tickets and on the spur of the moment I'd brought it up and found myself asking if she would go with me. She was reluctant but finally gave in. We're going in her new truck instead of my car. I'd been thinking about renting a car for the trip but really wasn't sure how much money I'd have left if I did. The reunion was a two day thing. I could have just planned on the dance that evening but I wanted to make an impression on my 'then' girlfriend so I bought the hotel room too.
I bought a formal for the dance because I wanted to show off and tease the guys in school that had never paid me any attention. I deliberately picked one with a short above the knee ballerina type skirt and a really deep neckline. I've been working out for three months at a fitness center and have trimmed down a lot. I like the way guys look at me now and in this dress I was going to make them look. We were leaving Friday at noon and so Thursday night I took out the back seats and cleared room for our baggage so that we didn't have to leave anything in the open bed of the truck. I put the cushion from my patio Chaise on the floor to cover the seat rails and to keep our stuff from getting dirty.
