With their husbands away, Libby and Holly become closer, their initial intention to get better acquainted. They wind up sharing themselves with one another intimately.
**********************
It was a lovely day at the market. The scene at Green's stall excited both women. They felt they had been included in a secret. They thought Green liked them and trusted them, the way he held that couple on the edge of their orgasms and only let them climax when Holly and Libby assented.
The women did not spend long at the market after that. Holly had errands to run and dropped Libby off at her house. They did, however, agree to get together that evening. A glass of wine, a chance to get to know one another better. With their husbands away in the forest, it would give them uninterrupted time together.
Holly had been gaining in her attraction to Libby. The day at the cafe when they fondled the carved gnome figurine, that was actually a cunning dildo, just fired her imagination for Libby. Holly could never let Libby know, could she? She was afraid of Libby's rejection, and of ruining their friendship.
Holly masturbated that afternoon with Mr Green's wooden spoon. She could not help herself. Libby would be coming over that evening. And so, in hopeful anticipation, she practiced the sexual stimulation she wanted to indulge in later.
As she moved the spoon back and forth inside her, she thought of Libby. The way her thick hair fell across one eye when she laughed, the shape of her lips, the curve of her hips. She imagined those hips with her hands roaming freely on them, crossing to the globes of her smooth ass. When her imagined fingers reached the cleft in Libby's buttocks, Holly climaxed. She let the sparks resolve in her body, resting only a little before realizing Libby would soon be there in person, to perhaps explore in the flesh, as she had in her passion.
Holly showered and dressed, choosing her outfit carefully. With the change in her attitude toward being always immaculately put together, Holly was getting more casual in dress.
Tonight, though, she chose as carefully as ever before. This felt like a special evening. She donned her sexiest lacy see-through black panties, pulled on a silky black skirt that hugged her thighs, and buttoned up a forest-green blouse that reminded her somehow of the Green Man.
Holly chose not to wear a bra. Her petite breasts hung beautifully free in a shallow arc from her shoulders and ribs. She liked how they looked under the cloth and how they responded, as sensitive as they were to being touched. She wanted the blouse to glide against the skin of her bosom and feel the arousal as it grazed her nipples.
Before stepping out of the bedroom, Holly checked her reflection in the little mirror, she could feel him there now, watching her through the mirror as in one of those crime films where people are interrogated and secrets are drawn out before unseen spectators. Her nipples poked gently under the blouse. Holly liked the feeling of Green seeing her become aroused, liked when he watched her masturbate with the wonderful spoon. She wanted to please him, wanted to see him stroke himself as he watched her, wanted to feel his warm flood as they brought themselves off at the same time.
A knock at the door indicated Libby's arrival. Holly carried the mirror with her as she bounded down the steps. She was momentarily breathless when she opened the door to see the object of her masturbatory fantasy standing there looking better than her mind's eye had conjured hours ago. Their sweet hug and two-cheek kisses at the door turned into a longer embrace. Holly was surprised. She felt a surge of arousal - surely did not Holly as well? Holly patted Libby's back and let her hands glide downward to the flare of her hips. Libby hung on.
Both women recognized they were engaged in breast play as they hugged. Women know how to communicate affection by pressing their breasts firmly against the person they are embracing. Want to send a signal? Press your breasts against the person, let them feel how the soft edges are set against the other's chest. Feeling stand-offish? A side hug is the perfect way to be friendly but not too friendly. It is the perfect way to tease sexually yet never be blamed for overtly sending signals.
Men are too aroused to complain. And a gentleman will always assume the lady did not intend anything by the momentary intimacy. Instead, they will feel a slight hardening in their pants and smile a pleasant good-bye at their parting.
"I'm so glad to see you again. What a day at the market, right?"
Libby nodded recalling the sight of the man and woman who came under Green's power this morning. "I wonder how many times Mr. Green has mesmerized customers like that? It has to be more than just us and that new couple." Looking down, she spied the mirror Holly still held in her hand. "Oh is that the one? The one Mr. Green gave you? May I see?"
Libby quickly noticed the obvious phallic handle and ran her fingers over the bulbous end. She looked up mischievously, letting her fingers stroke the handle in a very clear masturbatory way.
"Beautifully carved, so... realistic."
Then turning it over, she admired herself in the glass. She held the mirror away from her body and pulled Holly closely in as if they were taking a selfie. Both women smiled up at the mirror and saw themselves smiling back. Holly noticed, but Libby did not. In the mirror as well was the Green Man's image. He was looking at them all the while they were clowning before the mirror. He saw all. Holly was happy he was there. Her own familiar.
Holly took Libby by the hand and led her to the living room. There she had the coffee table decked out. Flowers in the vase, a tray with the wine breathing and the cheese warming. She lay the mirror against the tray so it faced them as they sat on the couch.
It did not take long for them to find the easy rhythm of conversation that close friends have. The two sat on the couch drinking wine and chatting.
As Libby spoke, a constant smile parted her deep red lips, her white teeth flashed. She seemed to lean closer in toward the middle of the couch. Holly studied her - the softness of her lips, the curve of her neck. She wore a sleeveless cream-colored blouse that accentuated her rounded breasts perfectly and was almost see-through. At least the texture of her areolae and nipples was evident under the thin material. Libby too wore a skirt - a brown, earthy-colored skirt.
