Sleeping Beauty
My next-door neighbour Bill and I had got on well together since he and his wife Lisa had moved in next door about five years ago. We often went out to the pub together or sat and had a beer at each other's house. We became close friends and often under the influence of alcohol he divulged intimate secrets. One of these secrets was the fact that he would like to watch his wife being fucked by another man. I couldn't understand his wanting to do this as his wife was particularly good looking, in her early thirties, slim, petite and long blond hair. Any man's dream woman. Why would he want to share her I wondered? I of course under the influence had remarked how desirable she was and if his fantasy came to a reality, he was of course to consider me. He had further gone on to say it was only a fantasy and couldn't really visualise his wife agreeing to it, especially after inferring it to her on a few occasions and getting no encouragement.
One Sunday afternoon we were sharing a few beers; his wife having joined us earlier but had left us to our usual afternoon session. After a few more he asked a strange question.
"Do you know where I can get some Rohipnol or other stuff that makes girls sleepy? You know, the stuff they call date rape drugs"
To say I was a little shocked was an understatement.
"Who do you want to date rape" I exclaimed. "No, no not rape, I wouldn't do anything like that. I was going to give some to Lisa." If I was shocked before, now I was astounded. He must have seen the look on my face because he went on to explain that yesterday they were watching the news on TV and there was an article on where two girls had been sexually assaulted outside of a nightclub a few days before and couldn't remember leaving the club but were found unconscious outside in an alley by other clubbers.
"Surely they would remember something or at least be conscious enough to prevent anything happening that they could prevent?" Lisa had said.
"I don't know" He had replied to her. "I don't know anyone who has used that sort of stuff."
Later in the evening as they went to bed, Lisa had asked him to see if he could get some of this drug.
"Why?" he asked.
"I am curious, that's all."
"And how would my getting hold of some of this stuff satisfy your curiosity?"
"I would take it and have a couple of drinks to see what affect it has. I would be here in my own house and you would be there to see nothing happened."
He explained that he had jokingly given his best evil laugh, grabbed her and told her something along the lines of "What makes you think that nothing would happen? I would have free reign to do anything I wanted!"
He said Lisa had giggled and squirmed against his groping and it had developed into full and wild lovemaking. "It was incredibly good, the best that he could remember for a long time. Maybe I wasn't the only one turned on."
"Now, where can I get some" He asked again.
"I don't know, but I will ask around. I'll let you know if I can get some."
There were a few characters at the trucking company where I worked who would likely be able to help. I approached one, Sammy who it was known supplied pills to some of the truckies to keep them awake. From my office I had seen Sammy washing down one of the trucks and wandered over as nonchalantly as I could and greeted him good morning. He just looked at me sideways with an expression that said "What the fuck do you want" whilst maintaining an almost piratical slight smile. This man could read me like a book and he knew I wanted something illegal. I didn't know how the best way to ask so I just came out with it. "Can you get me some Roofies, or something like it Sammy?"
"Now, what would a man like you want with Roofies Mr Prescott?"
"They're not for me, they are for someone else." I blurted embarrassed.
"Oh really?"
"Truly" I said. "What would I need something like that for?"
"You might be surprised who asks for that sort of thing."
"Can you or can't you? Wishing I hadn't asked in the first place.
"Of course I can, tomorrow soon enough for you?
"Yes".'
We agreed a price and I paid him.
The next morning bold as brass he walked into my office and dropped a padded envelope on my desk. "Morning Mr Prescott, courier dropped this off for you at the gate."
"Thanks Sammy" I muttered.
He winked, turned and left without another word.
I put the envelope inside my jacket pocket and went to the men's room to check the contents. There were 10 pills inside the envelope in a small plastic container.
The day dragged and I couldn't wait to get home and let Bill know I had got what he wanted. After what seemed like an eternity, it was time to go home and deliver the goods. I parked in my driveway and then walked up to Bill and Lisa's front door, unintentionally knocking harder than was necessary. Lisa answered "Hi Lisa I am going down to the pub this evening and wondered if Bill would like to join me, you too of course if you would like to come with us."
"Bill!" She called over her shoulder. "Eddy wants to know if you can go out to play." She laughed. "Come on in Eddy."
"Hi Bill." I greeted as I walked into the lounge. "Hi Ed, I was thinking of going down to the pub tonight myself."
"Why don't we all go?" Chimed Lisa. "We can have dinner there."
If I was worried about passing the pills to Bill, I needn't have worried. Lisa declared she needed to get changed to go down to the pub as she 'couldn't go dressed like this'. I thought she looked terrific as she was. When she disappeared, I handed the small plastic container to Bill, his eyes opened wider in a question and I just nodded. His grin was dazzling.
Soon we were off to the pub, had our meal and a few drinks and headed back home. It wasn't until Friday when I saw Bill again. I was watching TV when Bill popped his head around the door. "Eddy, Eddy!" He was excitedly animated, hopping from one leg to another. "I did it! I did it!"
"What?" I asked, already knowing in the back of my mind what he had done. "Lisa has taken a pill?"
"Yes but just one, we didn't know how many to take so I thought it best to start small."
