We touched down in LA, and Kat was brimming with excitement.
"I've got so much I want to show you!" she exclaimed.
There was a limo waiting for us. It was LA. No excess was too great. There was another bottle of Dom in the car, and we were sipping on glasses by the time the driver loaded our luggage and whisked us away.
"Where are we staying?" Kat asked.
"Well, I know well enough that you love Beverly Hills," I said.
"The Beverly Wilshire?" she inquired.
I held up my hands innocently. "Wait for the surprise," I said.
Kat fed us each bumps of coke during the 45-minute drive. We finished the Champagne quickly. We groped each other. She talked excitedly about restaurants and then she said, "Oh my god! We have to call Kelly! We can at least have drinks! I want you to meet her!"
I smiled, not because I knew what the next surprise was. I smiled because in this moment of honest excitement, Kat wanted to introduce me to a friend I knew was special to her. She cared about me.
She was reaching for her phone in her purse when we pulled up to a gate. Kat stopped, and her jaw dropped when she looked out the window.
"John, this is..." she stopped.
I was having a lot of fun with this. "Kelly's house," I finished her sentence.
"What the fuck?" she said.
"Surprise number three!" I said and kissed her. I lowered my voice to a whisper. "Kelly and I have done a lot of planning for this weekend. Just sit back and enjoy the ride, okay? Do you trust me?"
"Of course I do!" she said.
It was just past seven o'clock when we pulled into the curved driveway of Kelly's tastefully massive Beverly Hills home. She greeted us out front, a maid holding a tray with Champagne flutes on it.
"Kelly!" Kat squealed as she leaped out of the limo.
"Kat!" Kelly squealed right back. They embraced tightly.
"I've missed you so much!" they said in unison and laughed.
I exited the car to join them.
"You must be John," Kelly said. I extended my hand. "No, I'm a hugger," she added and hugged me, too.
"Kat," she said, turning her attention away from me, "he is an absolute hunk."
"You have no idea," Kat said.
"I see you've been hitting the slopes already, my dear," Kelly said.
"Is it that obvious?" Kat asked.
"Only to me, love," she said. These were old, intimate friends. Their manner with one another was so easy. I admired it. "Come inside. Let's have some drinks while I tell you what John has planned for us tonight!"
Kat hung back with me as another member of the house staff took our bags inside. The limo pulled away. She took my hand.
"This is beyond amazing," she said. "You're going to have to tell me how you worked this all out. But for now? Thank you. Just... thank you."
I squeezed her hand, and we went inside. The house was beautiful and imposing. It was modern, with sleek lines and a mid-century focus to the decoration. Kelly led us into a comfortable parlor adjacent to the massive, professionally equipped kitchen. We toasted with our Champagne glasses and drank. The staff took our bags to the guest house.
"So what's our plan this evening?" Kat inquired, her eagerness apparent.
"We're doing an old favorite for dinner," Kelly announced.
"Spago," I said.
Kat beamed, then probed further. "And?"
"Then back here for surprise number four," I said.
"You're not going to tell me, are you?" Kat said. I just laughed.
The conversation was easy. Kelly was charming. Not quite a decade older than Kat, probably right at my age, she was tall and slender. Her meticulous blonde hair looked like she could be ready to go onto a TV set at the drop of a hat. She wore a designer cocktail dress, ready for the evening. Her heels were tall. Her legs were slender, supple but muscular. Her prominent breasts were proudly bolted on. She was a gorgeous California girl, hands down.
"Do you kids need some more party favors?" Kelly asked. "I need to catch up."
She directed our attention to an embarrassing mound of cocaine piled onto a glass coffee table in the parlor. There were razor blades and straws set out with the blow. This was a next-level setup.
"Jesus, Kel, how much coke do you think we'll get through?" Kat exclaimed.
"Honey, you forget," she said confidently, "I know you."
They laughed again, and both kneeled over the table from seats on the conveniently table-height sofa. They skillfully formed and snorted two lines each. I was in heaven watching them. My cock stirred.
We departed for Spago a short while later in another limo, chatting effortlessly. Kat and Kelly caught up on their lives and told old stories, yet they never let me feel outside the conversation. It was warmly inclusive. And I certainly didn't mind walking into Spago, still a see-and-be-seen hotspot, with two gorgeous women accompanying me.
"So, John," Kelly said after we ordered cocktails, "tell me how you two met."
