Jane's friend's wedding turned out to be a lot more enjoyable that I had expected it to be, after she went up to our room about 8 o'clock, having drank enough red wine to sink a battleship. I had been hoping we'd get it on, but here she was on her knees, holding onto the toilet bowl and throwing up every few seconds, in not fit state to do anything.
"Why don't you just go back downstairs and enjoy yourself? I'm going to go to bed and sleep this off," she slurred as she pulled strands of long dark hair away from her face.
"Okay baby, might as well," I said, picking up my jacket as I headed out the door. "I won't be too late."
I got to the bar with the dancing just getting into full swing and sat on a stool, idly thinking what a lucky bastard the groom was. I became aware of a figure sitting at the stool beside me. "How you doing? It's Steve, right?"
I looked to my right to see a friend of the bride, Kyle. "Not bad, man. You?"
He smiled broadly. "Yeah, it's been a great day. Doesn't Corinne look gorgeous?"
I glanced over to the dance floor, where Corrine was strutting her stuff, looking like a million dollars. "Fuck, yeah she does," I agreed. "Didn't you ever want to... you know?"
He looked at me quizzically. "Er, no. She's not really my type."
"What, you don't like blonde, slim, gorgeous and legs that go on forever?"
"Well I like blond without an 'e' on the end..."
It took a second or two for it to sink in, then I said, "Oh," rather stupidly.
"Hey don't worry about it, I'm not going to try it on with you... unless you want me to?"
I stammered a little, then laughed. "Yeah okay pal."
"Yeah okay, you want me to try it on with you?"
I laughed nervously again, feeling a tightening in my groin. I was sure no one knew about my few encounters with guys. Was I setting off his gaydar or something? "No, that's not what I meant!"
His face broke into a broad grin, his blue eyes twinkling. "Am I making you feel uncomfortable?"
"No, not at all," I stammered, butterflies tickling my stomach. I crossed one leg over the other, feeling my cock growing slowly in my pants. So how do you know Corinne?"
"We work together. Started on the same day and we've been friends ever since."
"You here on your own?"
Yeah. You're here with your wife, right?"
"Yeah, but she's gone up to our room, hammered."
"Let me buy you a drink then, we can keep each other company."
I thought for a moment. "Thanks. Why not?"
