This chapter deals with one of my husband's co-workers, and details how Mike managed to get me to perform for him once again.
Thanks to everybody who has been so encouraging to me, both publicly and privately. You make this easier than I had thought possible.
It's almost Spring of 1975, and we still haven't been married a year yet.

Chapter 1. Shotgun Gary.
The previous episode of 'It's My Life' introduced Suzanne, the grandaughter of our next door neighbor, who Mike had somehow coerced into coming over to initiate me into the world of lesbian sex.
While I admit to not having been overly excited about the prospect initially, Suzanne certainly changed the way I looked at the concept, so much so that she became a frequent visitor for a while. Often Mike would be leaving for work and it seemed that Suzanne would be over before the door had closed behind him.
I was not proud of what I was doing, but justified it in my own mind by telling myself that it wasn't like playing around with a guy, and besides Mike had been the one that got us together in the first place.
Mike continued to try and get Suzanne to come over to party with us again, and still thought that the magic powers of his cock could cure Suzanne of her Sapphic leanings, but not only was Suzanne adamant about not wanting anything to do with him sexually, she didn't want him watching us go at it either.
On the other hand, she wanted me. I, in turn wanted her. She gave me everything that Mike didn't; the tenderness, the intimacy, and most importantly to me the feeling that what I wanted and needed mattered just as much as hers did.
It came to an end one morning when Suzanne came by for coffee and cuddling. We ended up in bed as was our custom, and it was by chance that Suzanne was in the bathroom when she happened to hear the sound of a truck out front. She peeked out the blinds and saw Mike lumbering across the street.
This triggered a comical scene that was pure Keystone Cops, and I would have probably gotten a kick out of it if I wasn't busy trying to get my work uniform and things into the bathroom while Suzanne got dressed. Luckily she had only worn a shirt and jeans over, so she was sitting on the stairs when Mike came in the house.
"Hey Suzie, what are you doing here?" Mike said as I listened from the bathroom while throwing make-up on and trying to make myself presentable.
"SUZANNE came by to see if Becky needed a ride to work," she announced loudly, never giving up on trying to get Mike to call her Suzanne instead of Suzie.
"Oh, well that's why I stopped by," Mike said.
"In that case, I'm outta here," Suzanne said as she yelled a good-bye up to me and left.
I listened as Mike's footsteps pounded up the stairway, and was ready when the bathroom door opened up as I finished applying my lip gloss. The door might not as well ever been there most of the time, because Mike barged in whenever the urge struck him.
"Hi babe!" I said as I pecked him on the cheek. "What's up?"
I was used to having Mike stop by for matinees, but this was pretty close to the time I would be heading off to work myself.
"Just stopped by to see if you needed a ride," MIke said as he followed me into the bedroom where I searched for a pair of earrings.
"Great!" I said. "Suzanne was going to give me a lift," I said. "Did you see her downstairs?"
"Yeah, I saw her," Mike said as he sniffed around like a hound dog. "I told her I'd take you to work so she left. She give you a lot of... rides?"
"Sometimes," I said, not missing his less than subtle comment but pretending that I did. "It's really nice of her to offer when it's not nice out."
"I guess," Mike said as he put his hands on my shoulders while I put on my earrings in front of the dresser mirror. "Boy, it sure smells like cunt in here. Multiple cunts."
I looked at Mike whose nose was twitching in such a comical way that I had to laugh.
"Maybe I've got a yeast infection or something," I said as I spun away to get my pocketbook.
"Sorta wish I had gotten home earlier, because I'm curious about what was going on here," Mike added.
"I wish you had too, because I fell back asleep after you left and now I'm running late," I told Mike as I headed out the bedroom door.
"I'm not as dumb as you think Becky," Mike said as he moved in front of me.
I bit my tongue to avoid giving him the response that was practically out of my mouth and instead just looked at him like I was confused.
"I don't think you're dumb Babe," I assured Mike. "Never did."
"Good. Not that I would mind watching you two in action again, but remember..."
"It's cheating if the other person isn't there," I said in finishing Mike's sentence for him. Mike code of sexual honor.
"That's right," Mike said. "You get a pass on this one, but you owe me one."
"Haven't got a clue about what you're talking about Mike," I said as I moved around him and headed down the stairs. "Wasn't Bernie one?" I asked flippantly in reference to the guy he had me be with last fall.
When I got downstairs I saw there was a kid sitting on the couch flipping through a magazine. His face looked familiar, and then I finally recognized him as the guy that rode on the truck with Mike making furniture deliveries.
"Becky, this is Shotgun Gary, my right hand man," Mike said from over my shoulder.
Gary stood up, a skinny kid about Mike's height with long stringy blonde hair and glasses. He also had a bit of a stutter, as I discovered when he stood up and shook my hand.
"P...p...pleased to m...m...meet you," Gary said as he stuck out his clammy hand. "Mike's t...t...told me a lot about you."
