Thank you to
Freya Gersemi
for creating and organizing this new event, and for allowing some of her characters to appear in cameo. Thank you also to my friend,
Djmac1031
, for trusting me with his two most cherished characters. I hope I did them justice.
One further thing: if the meaning of the emoji section dividers is not clear to you, maybe this isn't your kinda story 😊.

Unconventional

Wait! What had the PA said? I listened intently, hoping the announcement would be repeated.
Paging Emily Williams. Passenger Amy Stevens-Byrne, arrived on UA 2718, is waiting at the United Information Desk by Baggage Claim...
Static masked the actual number. Fuck! How had we missed each other? And where the Hell was the Information Desk? This was my first trip to Washington, and I had no clue.
I saw a group of United flight attendants, chatting among themselves as they pulled their carry-ons, and took the opportunity.
"Sorry to interrupt, were you on 2718?" I got nods in reply and continued, "Where's the Information Desk?"
One of the women gestured over her shoulder. "There are three; by baggage claim six, eleven, and fourteen, six is just there"
Offering my thanks, I walked quickly in the direction she had indicated. No one was at six, but as I approached eleven, I saw a familiar figure. A familiar figure looking kinda impatient, one hand on her roller, the other on her hip.
'Oh great,' I thought, 'obviously my fault... as always.' I attempted a big, welcoming smile.
My efforts to be disarming seemed to work. If anything, Amy looked delighted to see me, and our embrace was warm.

I'd seen Emily while she was still some distance away. It was well before she saw me, then her eyesight had never been the best. I'd been quite clear about where to meet. Only she could screw up something so simple. Give her something complex to do and few were better, but day-to-day shit...? Not so much.
Still, the sight of her weaving her way toward me, blonde ponytail bouncing as she negotiated the crowd, took me back. Took me back almost two years, and to waiting for her at my home airport. Took me back to her confessing her epiphany that she had loved me back in college; that she still did love me. A lot had happened in the time since then.
When she got closer, a look of recognition spread over her freckled, bespectacled face, closely followed by one of trepidation. 'Oh, Emily! Really? After all we've been through together?'
When I saw the defensive smile she'd adopted, I matched it with my own more genuine version, and in seconds we were in each other's arms. Our lips pressed together, our tongues meeting and jousting.
Emily pulled back, a startled look on her face. "What...? We said no... What about Madison?"
"And Alex, don't forget Alex," I added. This only seemed to increase my friend's discombobulation.

The old electricity was still there. But now accentuated - at least for me - by my eventual admission of love. My heart was pounding, my body responding in a way that was specially reserved for her, for my Amy.
Only she wasn't my Amy, same as I wasn't her Emily. We'd each just mentioned the other's spouse. We'd each been Chief Bridesmaid at the other's wedding. What the fuck was happening? I felt befuddled, disoriented.
Amy appeared to read my thoughts, not an uncommon happening. "It's not real, sis. This is a fantasy, a dream, right?"
"A dream is not reality, but who's to say which is which?" I breathed, half aloud, half to myself.
"You and your classic allusions," grinned Amy.
"But... but this feels real," I stuttered. "Does it feel real to you?"
"Yeah," she replied, "but some dreams are realistic. Maybe it's your dream, Em, and you want me to say that."
"I..." My brain felt confused, and speaking was difficult. It didn't feel like my dream, indeed I couldn't escape the conviction that I, and maybe Amy, were being manipulated by some unseen force.
Amy stepped into the vacuum. "Sis, whatever this is - and I have no fucking idea either - I have a pass. Madison told me she's cool with whatever. And Alex...?"
Things were slowly coming back to me, or maybe new information was being revealed to me. "Yeah... him too. Said we should have fun, go wild, whatever, as you say."
I remembered the conversation, but it felt almost as if that memory had only formed when Amy asked me. As if it had appeared only when needed.
"So..." grinned Amy. "You know what I'm gonna say, right?"
I did indeed. "Er... Don't overthink it? Maybe... go with the flow?"
She nodded, and so we did. At least until the woman behind the United desk called out rather loudly, "Get a room, please!"
So we went to get a room.

In truth, I was as much in the dark about what was happening as Emily, but I had already determined that I'd not worry too much about it. In the car, some things were beginning to come back to me. Or maybe whoever was dreaming this dream was filling in the blanks.
I decided to see what Emily knew. "So, I got an invitation. The convention. Hosted by that tawdry site you insist on writing for, right?"
"Right," she replied, a look of consternation on her face. "Me too. But... it's for characters to meet other characters. Freya..."
"Who?" I inquired.
"You must know Freya, right? Freya Gersemi. Italian, red hair, sex addict?"
"Sis, I read
your
stories, not anyone else's. It's
your
hobby, not mine. I prefer skiing. And as for characters, aren't we both characters in what you write?"
"Yeah," Emily acknowledged slowly, "but... but we're real people too."
I had to laugh. "And you think all the other authors in your little sex play-pen are so imaginative that they've never inserted themselves into the plot? From what you tell me, it's one big sexual wish-fulfillment-palooza."
My friend still looked uncertain, so I went on. "This is all in your head, or my head, or maybe both. Perhaps it's an 'Inception' thing." I knew Emily well; when all else fails, it's best to use Chris Nolan analogies.
She smiled at my reference, and I continued. "We're in a car, heading for the Grand City Hotel in D.C. And...?"
At my prompt, Emily said, "And we're gonna fuck. And then we're gonna fuck other..." She suddenly looked doubtful. "Other um... Literotica characters. And..."
"And it's gonna be fun," I interjected. "Just like in college. As this isn't real, I might even try some cock for a change. And...?"
Emily finally got my drift. "And we're not gonna worry about my husband, or your wife, or Clara... how is Clara by the way?"
"She's great, in first grade now." I replied. "But..."
"But we're not gonna worry about her, because this isn't real, got it!" Emily said, now looking much more relaxed.
So relaxed in fact that I couldn't resist putting my hand between her jean-clad legs as we made out on the back seats.

By the time the car pulled off of Massachusetts Avenue and stopped in front of the Grand City Hotel, I was worried that a dark patch might be forming on my crotch. Ames always got me so wet.
She paid the driver and we looked up at the building, fourteen floors of steel and glass anchored by more traditional brick. A transparent canopy led to a large lobby, with soaring walls, and a long, curved reception desk. Placed on two easels were signs welcoming us to the Literotica Convention.
As ever, Amy took control. "Hi, you should have our reservations. Stevens-Byrne and Williams. We're here for the convention."
The customer service agent smiled. "Amy and Emily, right? Welcome. So many pretty women this weekend. But at least you two have normal sized breasts. Never seen so many double Ds in all my life."

While the woman was processing my card and doing whatever else hotel staff do to keep you waiting around interminably, I took in my surroundings. To our right, a - to my mind - rather nondescript middle aged couple were checking in. To my left was a group of four; three women and a man.
I noticed the redhead first, her hair color reminded me of Madison, though she was younger, and taller. She was also extremely pretty. The guy was around six foot, handsome enough, if you liked Y chromosomes that is.
The other two women were polar opposites. A voluptuous blonde taller than the redhead, and a skinny, boyish brunette around Emily's height. What I noticed most about the pair was their incessant bickering.
Emily seemed captivated by the group. As I surveyed them, she stepped forward and addressed the auburn-haired woman. "Freya? It's Freya Gersemi, right?"
