Those few hours of elicit sexual bliss translated into a week from hell. She left Savvy's house just after the storm let up and made the ride home with exhausted, shaky legs. Savvy offered to drive her, and even suggested Katie wait until her husband came home and he could take her and her bike in his truck, but Kate knew she needed the time to clear her head and get her story straight.
Turned out she didn't need one. Brian assumed that she'd managed to get shelter in a local mall and couldn't call thanks to the storm's interference. He didn't even notice she'd actually forgotten her cell right there on the kitchen counter next to her purse. No need to elaborate on the rest. He was more upset the internet went down and he lost out on some raid for his guild.
Worse, try as she might to rush home from work and get out on her bike before he got home, intending to head directly to Savvy's, something kept getting in the way. Thanks to being understaffed, twice she ended up staying late at the office when a colleague needed help or a meeting ran a little long because she lost focus and needed to ask several follow-up questions. On Wednesday, Savvy sent her a text, sending Katie to the ladies' room, edging herself on her lunch break and almost missing another meeting that should have been an email. On the days she managed to make it home in time, the weather refused to cooperate by bringing another big dust storm early in the week and a much-needed but personally unwelcome deluge that made the afternoon commute through the streets of LA a nightmare a few days later.
Each day she sent an apology to Savvy, who demanded an apology nude picture and a playful command to edge herself in return. Between the regular edging, Brian's usual attempts at sex and the exposure of taking and sending nude photos of herself with her husband in the next room, the sexual frustration started to get to her. There was no way in hell she was going to work on Saturday.
On Friday, determined to make it home and out, she took a turn too sharply, hopped a curb and popped a tire.
In front of a cop.
She got a ticket, but at least the cop helped her put on the spare.
By the time she got home, changed into her biking gear and got ready to head out the door, she heard Brian pulling in. Her heart sank and she knew she would end up taking another picture and wishing she could 'selfie' to completion to take the edge off. Maybe twice.
"Damnit damnit damnit!" Brian yelled, coming into the house and throwing his briefcase and tie onto the couch. He stomped around the room angrily for a few minutes, before noticing her. She blushed and set down her helmet. She hadn't stopped to get a new one yet.
"Sorry about the tire, baby," she apologized. "I'll get a new one tomorrow."
"Huh? What tire?" He blinked confusedly and darted to the bay window, craning his head around to notice the spare on her car for the first time. "What happened? Are you okay?"
She explained about jumping the curb and the ticket, leaving out the part about her reasons why she rushed home to get out for her ride. Once she assured him that she remained unhurt and would easily get the tire replaced, he took his turn.
"The fucking company is sending me back to Michigan in the morning with two others. Apparently the problem we've been working on out here is too important for us to resolve over a Zoom meeting and they want us there in person for a series of meetings on Monday. I won't get back until Tuesday afternoon. Really fucks our plans for this weekend."
She made apologetic noises and expressed the right amount of frustration over missing out on a dinner-and-movie-out date night on her Saturday off that usually saw him playing with his friends online until it was time to get ready followed by some horny-college-student level groping in the theater followed by some distressingly vanilla sex. In reality, her stomach did excited barrel rolls and she headed to the bathroom with her phone while he arranged an Uber to the airport.
Kkcat: Can't make it today. Long story. B is heading out of town for the weekend. I'm totally free.
Sav1950: Come over in the morning. You owe me for making me wait so long.
Kkcat: 10am?
Sav1950: That works. Don't make me wait tomorrow.
Kkcat: Yes Mistress.
Sav1950: And Kitty- don't pack a bag.
Kate sent back her reply by edging herself to the point of orgasm and stopping, then taking a picture of herself, sitting nude on the bathroom sink and spreading her pink lips, showing her wetness, displaying how sorry she felt could not make it.
Sav1950: So sexy! Remember- keep your hands off your kitty tonight. I want you good and horny when you get here tomorrow.
