This is part 2 of Destiny's story. If you are new, please read First Time For Destiny.
Destiny couldn't stop thinking about her amazing encounter at the Adult Fun center. Finally, after all these years she knew how to fuck. She woke up horny on Sunday morning and had to rub herself before starting her day. Her hand just didn't seem to do the trick anymore and Destiny decided that she might need to visit a porn shop the following weekend to buy a dildo that could be inserted. She had fallen in love with the feeling of being filled completely and the pumping of a cock. Damn, she might need to find an easy hookup if that didn't work. She had never wanted a one-night stand before for the simple fact that they didn't seem safe. But, if she went to a nice hotel where there were likely to be people around who could hear her scream and carried pepper spray with her, she should be ok, right? Shaking her head Destiny crawled out of bed to shower and make coffee. She was meeting some friends for lunch later, so she needed to get her head out of the clouds. Or was it the gutter?
Destiny's friend group was always a blast to hang out with. They were all funny, fun-loving young adults and none of them had started having families yet. Some of them Destiny had known for years going back to her college days. But over time the group got larger as boyfriends/girlfriends and spouses started getting added to the mix. Of course, not every dating partner lasted forever so there was some turnaround from time to time. Right now, Destiny found that she genuinely liked everyone in their group. Well, all but one. Her friend Leo had been dating Tia for about six months. Honestly, Destiny wasn't certain what Leo saw in Tia. She was very pretty with curly red hair and bright green eyes. She was petite. Maybe 5'4" and looked very small compared to Leo's 6' height. But Leo was a very good-looking guy. Blonde hair that he kept short on the sides and just a bit longer on the top. Blue eyes and the frame of a guy who hits the gym regularly. He wasn't a body builder or anything, but he took care of himself, and it showed. Which is why Destiny couldn't understand why he was with Tia. He never had trouble meeting girls so why did he keep dating one who, as far as Destiny could tell, made his life miserable.
Tia whined and complained constantly. Nothing Leo, or anyone for that matter, did was good enough. Even today, she had done nothing but complain about the restaurant. Why did they have to eat outside? It was too sunny. Her drink didn't have enough ice. Then it had too much ice. Her food portion was too small for the price. Why wasn't she ever allowed to pick where the group went? When was Leo ever going to get a real job? Being a free-lance photographer who door dashed for extra money wasn't good enough. He should be in a job where he wore a suit and tie every day. On and on she went. Eventually others in the group would interrupt and talk over her, but she never seemed to notice or care. She and Leo had been off and on for the entire six months, and Destiny couldn't wait until they were off once and for all. Leo for his part seemed to ignore her with a lazy smile on his face as though her comments didn't hurt at all.
Everyone else in the group had the same opinion of Leo and Tia. They put up with Tia because of their mutual love for Leo. Becky said she was considering wearing earplugs from now on when Tia was going to be around, and Destiny had thought it was a fantastic idea. It was Greg, however, who had suggested getting together sometimes and not telling Leo about it. They all felt bad but had ultimately agreed to do just that. This was the first time in two weeks that Leo had been invited. It felt good to have him there, but it only took ten minutes with Tia to remember why they had agreed to leave them out sometimes. By the time lunch was over, Destiny was ready to poke out her eardrums. It was either that or she was going to tell Tia exactly what she thought of her. Personally, Destiny had no problem doing just that but then she ran the risk of losing Leo and she didn't want to do that.
The work week went by uneventfully. Friday afternoon Destiny turned off her computer and grabbed her purse ready for the weekend to begin. She didn't have any real plans, but she wanted to visit the porn shop to pick out some new toys. She had just made it to the sidewalk outside her office when her cellphone rang. Looking down she saw that it was Leo which surprised her. Besides being incredibly whiny and self-centered Tia was also extremely jealous and insecure. She never wanted Leo to have one on one contact with any girl in their group, not even the married ones. Therefore, when he was invited out one of the guys messaged him. Tia had told the group on her second time meeting them that she expected the women to no longer message or call him because as his girlfriend she found it highly inappropriate, and this was a boundary she was setting.
They had all been shocked and looked at Leo, but he had just smiled and shrugged his shoulders. Becky forgot once and out of habit messaged him inviting him to go clubbing. He was out taking pictures when the text was sent, and Tia was at work. Leo had messaged back saying he would love to go but a few hours later Tia called and chewed Becky out for not respecting her boundaries. Apparently, she checked Leo's phone regularly. It didn't matter that Becky explained she was inviting everyone not just Leo and that if Tia hadn't removed him from the group chat, he would have seen it there instead of a private message between them. Tia just screamed louder that it doesn't matter whether it was a group or private message. Leo was not to receive calls or messages from another woman period before hanging up.
So, Destiny was more than a little curious as to why Leo was calling her. She answered, and Leo asked if she was free and wanted to hang out that evening. Destiny was shocked. She loved hanging out with Leo but really wasn't in the mood for Tia. She asked Leo why he was calling her when Tia had expressly forbidden it and then Leo said the words that made Destiny's week. "We broke up again." Leo didn't even seem upset. Destiny hoped that this time the breakup would last.
"Yeah, of course Leo. Why don't you come over to my place. We'll order some Chinese food, watch a movie and make some popcorn."
"That sounds perfect. 6:00 ok?"
"Six is great. I'll see you soon."
Well that just made her week better. Leo had been one of Destiny's dearest friends going back to college. He, Destiny, Becky and Greg had been the original four in the group then. The gang had been added to since then, but they made up the 'core four.' Greg and Becky had both married in the years since school ended while Leo and Destiny were still single. Subsequently before Tia came into his life Destiny and Leo had hung out a lot. Becky had once told her that she thought Destiny should consider asking Leo out, but Destiny had never entertained the idea. She loved Leo. She really did. And even though Leo was undeniably good looking, and she did find him attractive she knew that they weren't compatible as a couple. She just didn't feel that way about him. Nor did he feel that way about her. Destiny had asked him if he ever thought of her as more than a friend after Becky had told her how perfect they were for each other. Leo had laughed. Literally laughed out loud. And then he repeated the same thing that Destiny had told Becky. He did love her, but not in a romantic sense. They were great as friends and that's where it ended. Destiny had been relieved, and the subject never came up again.
Destiny had just changed into a pair of comfy pajamas when the doorbell of her apartment rang. Leo stood there wearing his lazy smile and gave her a quick hug before entering. They ordered a ton of Chinese food to share and once they were done eating, they sat on her couch to watch a horror movie. Destiny started drinking wine while Leo drank beer that he had brought. When the movie was over Destiny offered to let Leo sleep on her couch that night, that way they could watch another movie and eat popcorn and he wouldn't have to head home in the middle of the night. Leo agreed and Destiny got up to start the popcorn and open a second bottle of wine. Leo followed her and Destiny took the opportunity to ask about Tia and why they had broken up.
"Beats me," Leo stated. "She got upset saying that I wasn't there for her or respecting her the way I should be. I told her once again that what she gets from me is all she's going to get from me, and that the relationship was not serious. She started screaming that it was over, and I left. But I know how she is. She's going to stew all weekend long and when I don't call her and beg her to come back to me, she'll instead call and beg me to give us another chance, she understands what I need, blah, blah, blah."
Destiny laughed, "So you guys aren't serious? I thought you were considering everything you allow her to do and control. Not to mention it's been six months."
