Annie & Jaz had planned a getaway to the coast, hoping to spend some much-needed time away and focus on each other for a bit. With little energy left after long days at the office, they were burned out, exhausted, and ready for a vacation. Finally, the big day of departure was only a week away, circled so many times on the calendar the surrounding days were nearly blacked out.
"I know we're saving for the trip, but Bruce just wrote to get a drink after work today. You in? It's sooo nice out!" Jaz wrote.
Their friend Bruce was also sick of the work-life balance and had just quit his job, looking to move to a new town and a new life. Annie and Jaz reluctantly supported his decision, even if it meant losing a long-time friend and drinking buddy.
"Ugh, YES PLEASE," Annie replied. Her boss had been extra hard on her this week, so any outlet involving friends and alcohol was a welcome distraction.
Minutes later another message appeared--unsurprisingly from her boss telling her she'd need to remain at the office on stand-by, as the team was now tasked with leading a presentation on Friday.
PERRRRRFECT
TIMING
she mused. She wrote to Jaz to go on ahead with the drinks and that she would hopefully meet up with them when she could leave the office.

"Hey man! Damn, can't believe this might be our last happy hour" Jaz said, greeting Bruce at the bar.
"Oh come on, I'm not dying you know. Just gonna be in another city," Bruce replied.
"Yeah, a 3 hour drive away, and we have no car!" Jaz retorted.
"Well we'll just have to make the most of it. Tequila?!" laughed Bruce. Bruce and Jaz had been friends for years -- tequila was often the fuel for many of their adventures and mishaps in the city.
"That's the good stuff!" Jaz confirmed.

Meanwhile, Annie's time in the office was turning out to be more of a wasted effort by her well-intentioned but inept boss, prompting her to spend at least as much time texting with Jaz than doing any actual work.
"Why not crack open a bottle while you're 'working' baby?" suggested Jaz.
"Hmm... yes that's not actually a bad idea---I don't have any real work to do and no one is even here!" complained Annie.
She quickly set about finding a cup she could enjoy some scotch in, while pretending to work on a project that she had already finished days ago. After stealing a co-worker's mug, she poured herself a drink and kicked off her shoes to get comfortable until the inevitable "All set, see you tomorrow!" email that her boss would send in an hour or so.
After spending some time with her whiskey, Annie felt a strong craving for snacks and headed to the office kitchen to raid the drawers while no one was around. She grabbed as many bags of chips and nuts as she dared and quickly padded back to her desk.
The cleaning crew doesn't arrive 'til 11pm, and I'm not going anywhere for at least another hour. I'm getting cozy.
"WHERE ARE YOUUUU???" an obviously tipsy Jaz wrote.
"Take a wild guess." Annie replied.
"Somewhere with a No Shoes No Shirt No Problem policy?" mused Jaz.
"Yep, just airing out The Girls and sipping a fine whiskey while Hunter massages my feet." Annie wrote.
The resulting 'hearts for eyes' emoji flood she received told Annie all was well at the happy hour.
Fuck this, I AM getting cozy,
she thought, as she unhooked and removed her bra and kicked back in her chair. She loaded up some entertainment on her computer, and tore open a bag of chips, spilling half of them onto the floor.
DAMNIT!
As she started to clean up her mess, she was startled to hear someone shout "NO WAIT, I'LL EAT'EM!" over her shoulder. She jumped and turned to see Hunter, a co-worker, stumbling down the hall. His normally determined gait a bit unsteady, impacted from drinking since leaving the office a few hours earlier.
"What are YOU doing here?" she asked.
"I was about to ask you the same thing! Didn't your meeting get postponed til next week?" He said.
"Not that I'm aware..." she complained, while picking up chips off the floor.
"Lemme help you" Hunter said, as he came around to help her with the mess. Annie always thought Hunter was the best-looking guy in the office, and enjoyed their banter at company events. Although she was in a loving and committed relationship with Jaz, they practiced a healthy openness that allowed for the realistic acknowledgement that other people could still be attractive and sexualized, so long as everything remained above board and discussed honestly.
As they were scooping up broken bits of chips, she noticed Hunter sneaking glances at her a little more brazenly than usual --
He must be pretty drunk,
she thought, until she realized that having removed her bra her breasts were clearly visible under one of the silky blouses she was known for wearing.
Oops!
After they cleaned up the mess, she smirked at him and said "Well thanks for your help, but please don't eat these dirty-ass chips..."
"Oh I won't, I'm not THAT drunk yet," he said.
"Maybe some of this will help?" as she offered the half-empty mug to him.
"Damn, I oughta work the night shift - you
really
get comfy here after hours. Thanks!" he mused, as he took a healthy sip.
"Surprised to see a girl sitting at her desk with a mugful of scotch at 8pm on a Tuesday night? Or is it the boobs?" she smirked.
As Hunter turned a deep shade of red, Annie reassured him "I'm teasing. No one is ever around this late and I'm just killing time until I can get the hell out of here and meet up with Jaz, so I decided to act like I was at home."
"Uhh... yeah I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to make it weird, I've been drinking. I should've kept my mouth shut," he stammered.
"Oh, don't worry about your mouth, I'll let you know what I need when I need it," she said, musing at the power she could hold over this hot guy. She took a minute to run her gaze over his body, admiring his muscular build hidden under the boring office casual clothes. Making men feel objectified and reduced to nothing but a hot body was something she could get a kick out of, having been the unwelcome recipient of far too many creepy looks, comments, and advances herself.
She took a moment to make some small talk, taking care to make sure her bra-less chest was visible as they spoke. The feeling of his eyes on her, trying vainly to ignore her nipples visibly poking the fabric of her blouse while he stammered out answers to innocuous questions, brought her waves of pleasure. She enjoyed using her power to confound men. Having her boobs slightly on display only heightened the feeling.
Jaz would love this
, she thought, knowing how much her partner enjoyed when she owned her sexuality and expressed herself. Even better when it involved some casual nudity. She hated superficiality and 'thirst traps' but found her sex-positive outlook after years of frustration with the oppressive male gaze, learning to wield the same dominant sexual power she had often been subjected to.
After the excitement of talking to a hot officemate, Annie let him know she needed to get back to work so she could meet up with Jaz and his friend. Their exchange had her worked up, and she wished she was already home so she could spend some time with her vibrator, exploring fantasies with different outcomes of her office chat.
"BB WE ARE SO HUNGRYYYY" came a drunken text from Jaz.
Wow, they must really be going hard if they're already looking for food
, she thought.
"I'm almost done here, but I'm exhausted. Maybe we can just have dinner at home?" she asked.
"All good we'll eat here. I was just checking on you," Jaz wrote.
After staring at her screen aimlessly for a while, she finally got the "Go home!" email she'd been waiting for from her boss and quickly called a car to take her home.
Sorry boys but I need to lay down
, she thought, as she felt the tiring effects of a mug full of scotch and a long day. She packed up her things, and, feeling playful took a quick selfie showcasing her bra-lessness to send to Jaz.
"Heading home baby, but I'm exhausted, I'm so sorry! Tell Bruce I'll make it up to him," she wrote from the cab.
"You just did, he said!" Jaz replied. "Sorry to miss you though, you look amazingly hot right now."
Puzzled, she quickly checked her Snapchat, realizing in her haste that she'd accidentally included Bruce when she sent her photo to Jaz.
Oooops!
Hoping to avoid any further mishaps, she made her way home and promptly headed to the bedroom to unwind.

"OMG dude I'm so sorry I didn't mean to—" Bruce babbled.
"Didn't mean to what?! Don't sweat it man, she sent that shot to you, you did nothing wrong!" Jaz said, reassuring his friend. He was a little surprised at Annie's decision to send out a sexy shot like that to their friend, but it excited him. He knew she was comfortable around Bruce, so it wasn't out of character, but they usually spoke about that kind of thing first. Still, he trusted both of them so he wasn't suspicious or worried about any further implications.
"Ugh... ok... you sure? Damn, man, I'm sorry," Bruce replied.
"Seriously, don't even worry. Just enjoy!! I mean, she's got great boobs, not gonna lie. Maybe it'll give you something to think about on that long drive to your new spot," he laughed.
