Claire put her arms around me as I cried. She didn't ask any questions, she didn't say anything. She just held me while I sobbed my heart out. And really, I had no idea even why I was crying, it was more the emotional impact of everything over the last three weeks finally catching up and hitting me all at once. It was a while before I stopped, sniffled and wiped my eyes.
"You okay now?" Claire asked. "Want to stay out here a while or go inside?"
"Inside," I sniffled again. "I feel better now."
Crying had definitely been some kind of an emotional catharsis. I felt much better as we slipped inside, tiptoeing downstairs to the bunkroom in the basement where Claire and I usually slept when I came over. Her parents preferred us down there when I slept over. We didn't disturb them when we were talking late or watching movies. In the bunkroom, I pulled a clean t-shirt and panties from my bag and changed, getting ready for bed while Claire headed to the bathroom, "I need a shower" flung over her shoulder.
Well, she'd done far more than I had in the truck. I followed her in to wash my face and clean my teeth. I could still taste just a hint of Brad though, even after I'd finished scrubbing. I lay in bed just enjoying that faint background taste in my mouth. Claire turned the light off when she came back and slid into the bed with me, not hugging or anything but just sharing the bed the way we always did when I stayed over. Tonight, as it almost always was, her presence was comforting, I reached out and found her hand, held it in mine, squeezed. She squeezed back.
"Thanks Claire."
She giggled then. "I didn't know you gave such good blowjobs Hayley, I didn't think you and Steve had gotten that far. You should've seen Brad's face, he looked like he was in heaven."
I felt a bit shocked that she'd been watching us that closely. We'd never double dated before and I'd never given Steve a blowjob with anyone watching. Although of course I'd gone and let Joe fuck me while Steve watched. And vice versa for all of a couple of minutes but that had been different from my best friend watching me. I mean, I'd been aware of Claire and Mike in the front seat, drawn my own conclusions as to what they were doing from the noises they made but I hadn't looked. Not that I was doing anything except kneeling down in front of Brad with my back to the front anyhow. Claire giggled. She must have felt my surprise.
"He did?" I thought about that. I hadn't seen his face at all when I'd been sucking him off, my face had been buried in his lap right up until he finished coming in my mouth. After that, he'd just looked satisfied.
"Hayley, he was in heaven, trust me. You have to teach me how to do it like that."
Now I was smiling. Claire had always been ahead of me with guys, having her compliment me made me feel much better. "Well," I said, almost shyly, "he asked me out on a date next Friday." I don't know why I felt shy about that, I'd just given him the best blowjob of my life in front of Claire. What was I being shy about for gods sake?
"God Hayley, I am just sooooo jealous now." She giggled and I knew she wasn't at all, she was just happy for me. "And I'm sooo glad you guys hit it off."
Now it was my turn to smile. Brad definitely liked me enough to ask me out again. This was good. On the other hand, I didn't want to talk about Steve, time to change the topic and get Claire talking before she asked. Once she got going, she was impossible to stop, which could be maddening but right now I saw that little quirk of hers in a far more favorable light.
"Hey, I didn't know you and Mike ... you know ...?"
She didn't giggle this time. It was more of a love-stuck sigh. "Mmmmm."
"Since when? You didn't tell me?" Mind you, I hadn't told her about what had happened with Steve and Joe either, but that was different. Wasn't it?
"Well, it seemed kind of very personal, I was going to tell you..."
I giggled. "And then instead of telling me you just did it with Mike in the front seat tonight while Brad and I were in the back making out. I could hear you guys you know."
It was Claire's turn to giggle. The darkness somehow made me feel bolder so that I asked what was topmost in my mind right then. "What was it like, riding his cock and watching me doing Brad?" I was curious. I'd never watched anyone else. I'd been watched of course, twice now. That was kind of embarrassing when I thought about it.
Claire went off on a tangent. "Remember back a couple of years ago when we found that DVD collection of my Dad's?"
"Yeah." That particular memory made me smile. I did remember and it was more than a couple of years ago. We'd been using her Dad's home office for research for some school assignment and we'd found a whole collection of pornographic DVD's stashed away at the back of the bottom draw of his desk. I think we'd actually been looking for a cartridge to refill the printer but it was so long ago I wasn't sure anymore. Claire's parents had been out for the evening and instead of working on that assignment, we'd spent the entire evening flipping through pornographic DVD's.
I still couldn't believe some of the images I'd seen that evening. They were burned indelibly into my memory. I'd been shy and a bit embarrassed to start with, we both had been, but it had been impossible to stop watching them. Next time we looked for them they were gone, but between ourselves, we'd referred to them off and on ever since. For two young teenage girls, they'd been, how do I put it? "Educational" was the word that sprang to mind.
"I always liked that one with the two guys and the two girls, there was that asian girl and a blonde girl, just like you and me," Claire murmured, and I could feel her moving in the bed, her hand leaving mine. "How they watched each other." She was breathing faster. "It was like that tonight, sitting on Mike and watching you with Brad. I loved seeing you give him a blowjob, it was so exciting to see you two while Mike was doing me. And Brad's cock looked so big."
"Yeah, it was way bigger than Steve's," I breathed.
"Bigger than Mike's," Claire added. Then, "have you and Steve ever?"
"Yeah." I didn't add any more details.
"Are you going to with Brad?"
"Ummm, maybe, I'm not sure." I was being honest. I mean, I didn't plan to just do it with Brad on our second date.
"I liked that one with the two guys and the girl, too," she said. "Remember that one." I could hear her breathing faster. I was too.
