I work in a small office as an invoicing clerk and also head-up the accounts receivable department. Including myself there are a total of nine people in our office and as a result, we all have grown very close over the years.
As such, whenever someone has a birthday that falls on a Friday, we shutdown the office an hour early and most of us go to one of the local bars close to the office for happy hour and a couple of drinks for that person's birthday.
A few weeks ago, Heather, one of our customer service reps, had turned 28 and we had planned for a Friday afternoon cake followed by a couple of drinks. All went as planned with everyone from the office showing up, but must only staying for one drink. Those of us non-lightweights ended up staying for more and as the evening wore on only Heather, I and Kris remained at our table. We were also joined by one of Kris' friends, Julie after she got off of work. Heather, who I had a big thing for, even though she did not know it and all others in the office did, decided it was time to head home and I of course volunteered to walk her to her car.
Heather accepted the invitation for the escort to her car but said she needed to use the lady's room first, Julie said she needed to go to so the two of them headed to the restroom.
"Are you that desperate that you are going to walk her to her car in hopes of getting a quick kiss or something more from her," suggested Kris.
"I hope it is something more, but the answer is yes, I am that desperate," I replied.
"She just loves to tease you and have you trail behind her like a little dog," Kris countered.
I ignored the comment as Heather and Julie came back from the restroom and Heather and I went towards the door towards the parking lot.
"Thanks for getting me to my car, I guess I will see you on Monday, believe it or not, but I have two dates for this weekend, wish me luck," said Heather.
Talk about a punch to the stomach, getting that empty feeling. I think Heather told me this to make sure she kept me in my place, which is below her and her being out of my reach. With that I said happy birthday and told her I would see her on Monday and headed back to the bar in a bad state of mind.
After stopping at the bar for a gin and tonic, I went back to the table where Kris and Julie were sitting and they both could tell something had changed.
I was never that close to Kris in our office, she was a single mother and a little rough around the edges. She had dark red hair and a body that was very average, a large tattoo on her right leg, but she was a helpful person in the office, but one who would always speak before thinking.
Her friend Julie who I had met a few times before was a heavier woman who dressed very gracefully for her weight and had huge tits, at least 38D and bleached blonde hair. She was another woman who spoke before thinking and was also a little rough around the edges, but seemed like a good person and one who liked to be in charge.
"No good night kiss or hug from Heather?" asked Kris.
"Nothing, as a matter of fact she told me she had two dates lined up for the weekend and said it as to rub it in my face," I told them both.
