As I sat at the airport waiting for my flight I thought a lot about the coming trip. My old friend Judy was getting married in six days. I haven't seen her in nearly a year since my husband John and I moved nearly an entire days drive from where we grew up three year ago for work reasons. It was a big change but worth it. I can't deny that I'm not looking forward though to seeing all of my friends again and all the familiar faces I grew up around. Judy also made me her maid of honor giving me some extra work to do but happy to for her. Her wedding is going to be the first weekend in November, mere days after Halloween. Which worked out for the bachelorette party idea a couple of her bridesmaids came up with.
Sadly my husband John couldn't get off work also so I have to go alone. I promised to call him every night from the hotel room so we can stay in touch. After he dropped me off at the airport I went through the long check in process. Waiting for nearly an hour I am now finally on the plane giving me the next three hours to relax and explain more about who I am.
My name is Marisa. I am 26 and have been married for four years now to my loving husband John. We have had a great relationship from day one. The only thing that surprised him was that I was a virgin when we got together, which he of course ended up taking. In general my body type is average. My hair is naturally red, have blue eyes, and very pale white skin as most redheads do. I love my legs which are long for my body and well shaped from years of jogging. The only problem I do have with jogging revolves about my chest. My breasts are a natural 36 DD in size which is a real pain when running or finding proper clothing. They stand out and are hard to miss. Find it's usually the first place guy's eyes gravitate.
Other than seeing Judy and some of my other girl friends the one other person I was looking forward to seeing again is Dwane. I went to high school with him and he was one of the few black teens in the whole place. We spent a lot of time together after we graduated and were pretty good friends. I have no doubt that he wanted more but I really had no interest in him that way. He moved away to the city about an hour away to get a better job. I never knew what he did but he seems to have done well for himself. We slowly lost contact after I moved away and hadn't heard from him in a couple years until recently. He gave me a phone call out of the blue. Telling me he got our number from Judy and was looking forward to seeing me again. That we would have to make some time before the wedding to hang out. Several phone calls later we agreed on going to lunch the day after I arrived. More so since my hotel wasn't going to be too far from his house.
When the plane landed I picked up my car rental and drove straight for the hotel to relax. Was going to be here for the next seven days so the sooner I rested the better. I hadn't been there but a few minutes when I got a call on my cell from Laura. She's another old friend and one of Judy's bridesmaids. After the hellos Laura explained that her and Judy's other bridesmaids set up a bachelorette party two nights from now. All they had planned was dinner and drinking. Nothing special but it would be fine. Only difference was that since it is so close to Halloween the girls thought it would be fun for us to all get costumes to wear while we were out. That's when I kicked myself telling Laura I had forgotten mine at home and now needed to rush out to get one tomorrow. She gave me directions to a place she said was great and would likely be able to find something. After I hung up the phone I found a voice mail from Dwane making sure I got in and explaining where to meet him tomorrow afternoon. Kicking my fete up I relaxed the remainder of the evening only taking time out to eat and call John.
The next morning I showered and got dressed for my lunch date with Dwane. I can't believe it's been a little over four years since I have seen him. Putting on a nice plaid skirt, green short sleeved v-neck tee shirt, and mid calf high low heeled black boots I thought I looked pretty good. Fixing my hair and some light makeup I walked towards to meeting spot since it was close enough in the nice fall weather. Arriving at the restaurant I got a table and waited for Dwane. Thankfully I didn't have to wait for long. While looking at the menu I saw some one approach the table. Looking up I saw Dwane standing before me. My had he changed. He was still a deep brown in skin color with dark eyes and with short hair. Yet, he was larger then I remember with a strong upper body and well shaped. I was almost speechless when I saw him but without thinking I jumped up giving him a big hug.
Sitting back down Dwane took the chair across from me. We just sat and talked for some time before ordering our food. We had a lot of catching up to do. I didn't admit it but he had become a good looking guy. Not that he was ugly before but wow. After eating we still just sat there at the table chatting when my cell phone buzzer went off. Asking me if it was a call I explained no it wasn't. That I was actually a bit embarrassed because it was my pill reminder.
"Pill?" Dwane asked. Yes, I told him, my birth control pill. I have to take it around the same time each day and set my cell phone to remind me. Reaching into my purse I pulled my pill pack out, popped one out, and swallowed it down. I couldn't help but notice that Dwane took this moment to look down at my chest again, for the fifth or sixth time in the past hour. We finally left the restaurant but continued talking as we walked down the street. He asked me how my husband John was doing since the two of them were friendly as well. At one point I mentioned to Dwane about the bachelorette party tomorrow night and he was surprised that there wasn't going to be a stripper. I explained I was too but they hadn't found one in time because it was set up on short notice.
