Rebecca was walking up the stairs with a bag full of groceries when she saw Jim running down in his jeans and a white tee shirt that hugged all his muscles in his torso. She smiled when she saw him and offered him her cheek to kiss. He bent down and placed his hand on her hip as he kissed her lips. Tonight was her night with the girls.
They got together once a month to discuss whatever they wanted. It started out as a Book Club, but then it progressed into Psychic Nights, B Movies and then progressed sometimes into making fun of Porn films that Jim brought home.
Jim would hang out with his friends. Some of them were married to Rebecca’s so Rebecca knew that they didn’t always play pool, watch football, play cards or shoot some hoops. There were those times when they got a little restless and headed out to the strip club. Rebecca didn’t mind that much because he still came home to her – ready and more than willing. One day she’d surprise him, just like he had her the other night while she had been fast asleep.
Once Rebecca reached her floor she heard the front door of their building shut. The bag full of groceries started to slip out of Rebecca’s hands as she fumbled for her apartment key. She then felt a hand on her rear and her heart started to skip a beat.
“Here let me help.” A female voice spoke and once the bag disappeared she saw Stacy’s smirk behind it.
“Hi, Stacy. How are you?”
“Good. Kinda glad I ran into you. Jim and I bumped into one another at lunch this afternoon. He mentioned your party and said I should come over to see if I could join in.” Rebecca smiled while her heart beats sped to what felt like one giant constant beat.
“You want to join in on our discussion?”
“Becca, it’s ok. I won’t let a word slip about the other night. What happened in that bedroom is between the three of us and will always be. I just would like to have a friend in this building.”
“Sure, Stacy. You can join in. It usually starts at seven-thirty, which is about an hour away.”
