Jenny was just putting the final touches on the preparations for the evenings festivities. It was Friday night and Carla was coming over. Every Friday night after work Jenny and Carla got together and ate fatty snack-foods, drank beer (none of that diet shit, mind you), watched one of those weepy-ass chick movies that women love so much, and to hell with their figures.
Jenny and Carla had been best friends and roommates in college. They had shared everything--almost. They even married each others brothers. That was how close they were, and every Friday night since their freshman year had been girls-night. No boys allowed.
Friday night was a night to just relax. And since it was Jenny's turn to play hostess, Hank, Jenny's husband and Carla's brother, knew better than to be around.
Jenny was wearing one of Hank's old concert shirts that he had gotten as a roadie for Metallica one summer. As he puts it, "Before they went pussy on us." Along with the shirt was a pair of white, cotton panties and a pair of Taz houseshoes.
She was putting the big bowl of popcorn on the coffee table when she looked at the clock on the VCR. It read "7:28." "Where the hell is Carla," mumbles Jenny. "She's half an hour late," and walk back into the kitchen.
About that time the buzzer on the intercom goes off and Jenny dashes over to answer it. "Hello?"
"Jenny, it's me," says a very weary sounding Carla. "I've had a fucking bitch of a day."
"Sure, hon. C'mon up."
Jenny goes back into the kitchen to check on the pizza in the oven. It was one of those self-rising jobs that you have to watch like a hawk or it'll look like it caught fire. It looked like it was done, so Jenny took it out and set it on the stove-top to cool.
She hears the front door creak open. "Jenny?"
"I'm in the kitchen, Carla. I'll be right there. Wanna beer?"
She hears Carla flop down onto the sofa and sigh. "Whatcha got?"
Jenny opens the refrigerator and peers in. "I've got, uh, Bud, Bud Lite, and Old Milwaukee." Old Milwaukee? Wear the hell did that dog piss come from? "Whatcha want?"
"Bring me a Bud. I don't want none of that diet shit. Got any bourbon?"
Jenny walks from the kitchen, a beer in each hand. She flops down next to Carla, who has taken off her shoes and jacket from work. "Here ya go," says Jenny as she hands over the brew. "Sorry, no bourbon. Carla? What's wrong? You don't look well at all."
Which was true. Even though Carla was a beautiful woman with dark-brown hair, green eyes, and a fantastic body there was something not quite right. She had dark lines under her eyes and was a trifle pale. Carla shakes her head. "Nothing's 'wrong', per se. This is the first night in a week that I have gotten out of the office before 9-o'clock all week.
"That new supervisor of mine dropped a huge stack of paperwork on my desk at 4:30 that had to be done tonight. I'm gonna end up killing that fat, pimply motherfucker."
"Why? What's wrong," asks Jenny with true concern.
Jenny drains half her beer in one swig. "He's pissed at me for no reason. The other day we were in a meeting and he put his hand on my thigh, right here," indicating a spot near her crotch. "I removed his hand, and what does he do? The bastard puts it right back where it was and starts rubbing!
"After the meeting he pulls me aside tells me that I could be transferred to a better, easier job if I just do one thing for him."
"Let me guess," said Jenny. "He wanted a good fuck."
