Kristi Hansen was excited. It had been a crazy year for her, and she was excited to be starting back to school. She was older than most of her fellow students, but she was typically more eager to learn than most of them because she wanted to be there.
Kristi is 32 years old, and recently divorced. She is very tall, 5'11", with a mane of red curls that frames a gorgeous face with big green eyes, a slender body with small but well-rounded breasts, a tight ass and that yummy "peaches and cream" complexion that so many redheads have. All in all, an extremely sexy woman.
She had moved to California ten years earlier with her then-new husband, Steve, who had gotten a great job with a startup company in Silicon Valley right out of college. In the midst of the Internet boom, the company was doing great, and Steve's stock options made them rich, at least on paper. Kristi was working as a financial analyst for a different company, using her accounting degree. They decided to wait to have kids; Steve thought that a few more good years and they might be able to retire off his stock.
Her world seemed wonderful: a loving husband, a good job, lots of money. Then came the fateful day in the laundry room when she found an empty condom wrapper in Steve's pants pocket. They didn't ever use them, since Kristi was on the Pill and they had both tested negatively for HIV. When Kristi asked him about it, he offered some lame excuse. She began to think back to all those nights he had been "working late." There had been several times when he didn't answer the phone at his desk and hadn't mentioned her message when he got home.
She confronted him, and he admitted he had been having an affair with his secretary. Kristi had met the girl more than once, and her strongest impression had been how provocatively she dressed and acted. Kristi moved out the next day and filed for divorce. As a part of the settlement, she got half of his stock options, which she immediately cashed in. She used some of the money to buy herself a cute little house in a nice neighborhood, and began to rebuild her life. She only had a few friends here, but she loved the area and didn't want to leave.
Then to Kristi's delight, karma came back and bit Steve in the ass. Shortly after the divorce was final, the "Internet boom" turned into the "Internet bomb." His company folded, and his options were worthless as anything except wallpaper. He had to take a different job with a smaller company at a much lower salary, with no stock options. And of course, his slutty secretary/girl friend dumped him when he was no longer rich.
Kristi didn't really need to work, but she kept her same job because they would pay for her Master's degree. And now Kristi was starting her first night of grad school. As she expected, she was the oldest person in both of her classes. She enjoyed meeting her fellow students, but most of the guys were only interested in looking at her body. Besides, they were just KIDS!
One girl she got to know fairly well was Melissa. At 26, she also was older than many of the other students, so Kristi and Melissa felt a kinship that way. Plus Melissa was really sweet, with a great sense of humor, not to mention very cute. Melissa is a tiny thing, 5'1" and slender, with shoulder length brown hair, sparkly brown eyes and a very tight body that is the result of many hours of aerobics and mountain bike riding. Melissa and Kristi started studying together, and found they enjoyed each other's company a lot.
Melissa was in a similar situation as Kristi. She had had the same boy friend for a long time, when she had discovered that he was cheating on her. She had dumped him immediately, and had been single ever since.
They frequently got together to study on the weekends. One gorgeous spring Saturday, they were at Kristi's, on her patio enjoying the sun, and both of them were dressed casually. Melissa was in a little tank top, and a mini skirt and sandals. Kristi was wearing a big loose t-shirt and baggy shorts. They had been studying all afternoon, and when they decided to knock off, Kristi asked Melissa if she would stay and make dinner with her. Melissa had no plans for the evening, so she was more than happy to spend more time with the sexy redhead.
While they cooked, they drank wine and talked about many things. At one point, Melissa mentioned that she thought Angelina Jolie was very hot, and that she admired her for being public with her bisexuality. Kristi had always considered herself straight, although when she was younger she had often wondered what it might be like to kiss another girl. Melissa is actively bi, which she announced to Kristi after they had finished their second bottle of wine.
"Actively bi? What exactly does that mean?" Kristi asked.
"I'm not sure, I guess. I like the expression, though. I know I enjoy sex with both men and women. My problem lately has been that all the guys are worthless out of bed, and not all that good IN bed..."
Kristi laughed. "I hear ya, girl! So do you have a regular girl friend now, Melissa?"
"No, I don't. A couple of times, I have gone home with a woman after we met at a club, but those were really nothing more than just hot sex. I would love to find something more permanent than that. I miss having someone to share my day with, to snuggle up with on the couch, you know?" Melissa looked at Kristi.
"I know exactly what you mean, Melissa... That's been the hardest part, being alone after almost 10 years with the same person. But I sure don't want to be hurt like that again... I was so totally crushed to think that Steve would find anyone more attractive than me, especially his sleazy secretary." Kristi's eyes got a little misty, and Melissa put her hand on her friend's shoulder.
"It's okay, Kristi... That part of your life is over and you are definitely better off without Steve. If it hadn't been her, it would have been someone else eventually. Besides, every morning when you wake up in this cute house you should thank him and laugh at him... Your life right now has to be better than his!"
"That's a great way to look at it, Liss, I love your attitude..." Kristi hugged the shorter girl close.
"I try to keep a positive attitude, nothing good will come from feeling sorry for yourself. When I found out Rob was cheating, I was utterly crushed too, but it didn't take much thought to realize that HE had the problem, not me. And that it was HIS loss, not mine!"
"You go, girl! Men can be such pigs sometimes... What were those two thinking, cheating on two attractive, intelligent women like ourselves?" Kristi laughed.
"Hey, you forgot 'sexy as hell'!" Melissa piped in.
Kristi laughed out loud. "Yeah. Why would those guys cheat on two attractive, intelligent, sexy-as-hell women like us?"
"Ummmm... Because they are pigs?"
Kristi laughed again. "Melissa, I am SOOOO glad we became friends... I hope you know how much you mean to me, how you have helped me get back on with my life."
