Chapter Two: "...fuck."
As she approached her driveway, she noticed a familiar car.
"Fuck." She pulled in beside it, and paying no mind to it quickly made for her front door.
"Sarah?" Jared called, getting out of his car, "Sarah, we need to talk, please."
"Now is not the time, Jared," she said, dropping her keys, her anxiety getting the better of her. "I know what you want and I don't have it."
He stopped at the bottom of the steps to her front porch, "And what is that?"
"What is what?" she said, exasperated.
"What do I want?" Her eyes made brief contact with hers. Grief. Grief and pleading filled his eyes, bloodshot from... crying, maybe?
She softened, "Answers. I don't have any. I still have to unpack all of this myself, but it looks like we at least get a bit of what the other is going through. I'll tell you this, for what it's worth, I didn't know. I'm sorry."
He took a deep, shuddering, breath and looked as if the tears might break loose again. "Ok... I'm sorry, too. When, or if, you're ready, can we talk?"
"Yeah, sure. Let's just take some time,"
"Ok." He made for his car.
She heard it start as she closed and locked the door. "For fuck's sake, David, who didn't you hurt last night?" She made it as far as her living room and collapsed into her large purple bean bag, sinking into its memory foam. She sipped her coffee and nearly melted. Tim, as usual, had made her the perfect cup of joe. She felt thankful as she finally started to parse through the events of the previous night.
Jess and Jared were a power couple, matched only by herself and David. They were all partner's at Jared's real estate agency, Trifecta Real Estate, named after the fact that Jared's dad had gotten the seed money for the business betting on horses. Between the four of them, business was booming, they had money and even some small influence among their local community. David would often brag to potential clients about selling houses in the same neighborhood to local politicians. They carved out a good living, along with it a couple million dollar homes and nice cars. They made the long hours worth it. Still, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. When it came time to play, well, they were swingers.
Sarah thought back to the first time they'd shared. It had been her and Jess's idea. Both Jared and David had worked together to close a big deal and had been putting in extra time at work.
"We thought we'd surprise them," she murmured between sips of coffee.
The weekend after the closing they met up for drinks. Both she and Jess were wearing the typical little black dress: Jess's with short sleeves and a deep v that barely contained her large breasts and Sarah's strapless and curve hugging, seeming held on by sheer force of will, as if any second she could just decide to be naked, and there she'd be, bare to the world. Their men were dressed nice, and she liked that she caught both of them noticing the ladies' efforts. She still remembered the smell of Jess's subtle perfume, which wasn't surprising, by the end of the night she was all but covered in it.
Throughout the evening she and Jess dropped hints, flirting here and there, a touch, a wink, a glance, until they left the bar when she gave Jess a deep, passionate kiss, before parting and smiling at their stunned partners.
"Hurry home boys. We want to show you something." They left the boys and sped off in Jared's car, speeding home and leaving them in a state of confused eagerness. Beating them home she and Jess had time to have some fun, just the two of them. When their husbands finally caught up, the scene they walked in on was porngraphic. Sarah remembered being tied up like she was giftwrapped, big, flamboyant bows constricting her wrists and ankles. On her hands and knees the men walked in on them with Sarah's face buried in between Jess's legs, Jess moaning softly as this wasn't Sarah's first rodeo. Hearing the door close, Sarah lifted her face, lips and chin glistening from a combination of bodily fluids and smiled, "Finally, the dicks are here."
