On Monday morning Ashleigh woke up minutes before her alarm, feeling absolutely great. There were no noises from next door but she didn't need them. Her memories of the weekend were glorious and she couldn't wait to see Tom, and Sharon, again. Her alarm went off and she began her normal morning routine. When she dressed for work, she wore some of the new clothes she bought the weekend before last and left the apartment feeling extremely sexy.
That morning at work her new attitude and demeanor were noticeable and the other employees reacted positively to her. Smiles and warm hello's were abundant as well as some small talk about weekend activities. Ashleigh didn't really talk about her weekend except to admit to spending most of it with a new man. She didn't really have any close girl friends at work so detailed discussions of the weekend were out of the question.
About two o'clock, Sharon called and Ashleigh was excited. She switched the call to a more private phone and called for her replacement. Her voice betrayed her excitement when she again talked to Sharon.
"Hi, how are you?" Ashleigh started, "Thanks for holding. I was at the front desk and couldn't talk. I'm in an empty conference room now."
"How are you doing today?" Sharon asked. "I wanted to call earlier but I've been pretty busy here today."
"I'm great. I don't quite know what's happened but everyone here seems to be so friendly today. I don't have any real close friends here but so far everyone is being just great."
"It couldn't be because you have changed, could it? You've had a wild weekend and it looked good on you on Sunday. Does it still show?"
"Yes, I guess it does. I wish I had a close girlfriend to talk to about all that's happened to me lately. It just seems so magical."
"You can talk to me, Ashleigh." Cooed Sharon, "After all, I was involved in your weekend. How about meeting me for lunch tomorrow?"
"Oh Sharon, thanks, but I can't tomorrow. I'm standing in for another girl and having lunch at my desk tomorrow. How about Wednesday?"
"Wednesday will be fine, honey, I'll pick you up at the front door about 12:30, OK?"
"There's a little coffee shop just down the road with tables outside. I'll call you tonight and we can girl talk. Bye."
"Bye Sharon."
Ashleigh hung up the phone feeling somewhat relieved. It seemed that she really did find a new friend in Sharon and maybe something more. She went back to work with a wider smile on her face after that call.
Later that night, when Sharon called, Ashleigh was comfortably lounging on her sofa. The two women discussed the events of the weekend in some detail, including the present state of their own relationship. Sharon broached the subject after they had talked for some time about Tom and the other events.
"I realize this is pushing a bit, Ashleigh, but how do you feel about me?" She asked. "I guess I would like to know what you are feeling."
Ashleigh paused. "Well, Sharon, I like you and I am very comfortable around you. I like the feelings I get when you touch me, or even when you kiss me but beyond that I'm not sure, do you understand?"
"Yes, of course I understand. There was a time when I felt just as you do. I'm not a lesbian, if that's what you're thinking, I like cock too much. I just happen to think the girl-girl thing makes a nice change from the guy-girl thing."
"Oh, Yes, I see. But what's different about it except for not having a cock, I mean. You still do the same kinds of things, right?"
"Right. But the attitude is different and so is the touch. It's pretty hard to explain, especially over the phone, but I think you'll like it if you are willing to try."
"Well," replied Ashleigh, hesitantly. "As long as it's with you, I think I might want to try it. Could we take it very slowly?"
"That's just great with me." Sharon answered, "I was hoping you'd say something like that. You're the first one in a long time to affect me this way, so you're something special to me."
"Thanks, Sharon, I needed to hear that. When do you think we can get together for my first lesson. Soon, I hope, before I lose my nerve." Ashleigh laughed.
"How about Wednesday night. Ted won't be home so I'll be free. I'll bring a change of clothes and plan to stay over at your place, OK?"
"That sounds great to me. I'll see you for lunch on Wednesday, then we'll have dinner at my place. By the way, bring your bikini. My complex has a heated pool and a hot tub."
"Sounds great. See you Wednesday. Bye."
