Tanya knocked on the door, waiting for Erica to answer. She had butterflies in her stomach as she heard the footsteps coming closer to the door. She wasn't sure if she could, or should continue with the thing she had come here for. Erica was a lesbian, and Tanya had come here for sex.
Erica had been working with Rick for six weeks. He suspected she was at least bisexual, if not fully lesbian. Her mannerisms were "Boy's Club" professional, almost to the point of masculine, despite her physical appearance that screamed "Femme Fatale". He had picked up on little looks here and there that suggested an interest in women, though she had never said anything directly. Slender body, and perfect breasts, her long blonde hair neatly coiffed to accentuate her incredible green eyes, Erica belonged in the pages of Playboy, not a small company in a backwater town. For some unknown reason, she had chosen to settle here instead of a city like New York or Los Angeles; places she had lived before and been very successful.
Rick had invited her out for dinner and drinks with he and his wife Tanya. It was an invitation meant to bring her into the fold at the office. Her incredible beauty had caused the male employees to shy away from her, and the female employees had begun rumors out of sheer jealousy. Erica needed to be included, and if Rick and Tanya both befriended her, others would fall in line without starting rumors of an affair.
Erica met them at the restaurant, and held her handshake with Tanya a little longer than would be considered normal. She gazed into Tanya's eyes with an interest that intrigued Rick, and mesmerized Tanya. Her green, cat-like eyes were seductive, eyes that held your attention with their sheer brilliance and beauty.
"Hi, I'm Erica." She said calmly, professionally,... seductively.
"Hi." Tanya answered, not knowing exactly what to say beyond that as she gazed back into her eyes with curiosity.
They sat and enjoyed their meal, discussing work and their individual pasts, getting to know each other beyond the office gossip. There was a lot of laughter and storytelling, and overall, things went very well. Erica never mentioned a boyfriend, but repeatedly said "Lovers" and "Partners" in lieu of "Boyfriends" or "Girlfriends". While the discussion wasn't approaching sex, it was obvious that Erica was a sexually charged person with her eye on Tanya, and Tanya wasn't objecting to the attention. Rick was also enjoying the tension as he watched another woman getting his wife worked up. Hearing Erica say the word "Lovers" made Tanya breathe a little more heavily, and Rick was enjoying watching his wife's reactions.
Five or six drinks later, they had moved to the bar to continue their talk. Erica had chosen a table in the back that offered at least some privacy as she focused her attention mainly toward Tanya. Innuendoes were made, and hints were dropped, but nothing was directly asked or answered. Rick was never left out of the conversation, but he knew he was a third wheel tonight as he watched his wife warm to the attention of the lesbian across the table. Finally, Erica decided to break the chat and open the possibilities.
"Can I be honest about something?" she asked.
Rick and Tanya both nodded their heads as they waited for her response.
"Look," she began, "I think you've both figured out by now that I'm a lesbian. I really hope you're not put off by...."
"No!" Rick answered quickly, interrupting her to her own amusement.
"Not at all." Tanya answered as she jokingly slapped Rick's arm, letting him know he was being a horny idiot. She knew exactly what thoughts were running through his head.
"I really like you both." Erica continued to Rick's excitement, "Normally I wouldn't be so blunt, but I'm really drunk right now." She paused for a moment before asking her question. "Tanya, by any REMOTE chance, are you bi?"
"I'm curious." Tanya answered honestly, and with a small grin, exciting Rick even further as every man's fantasy began to emerge in front of his eyes.
"Rick, would you mind if I enticed your wife?" she asked.
"What's in it for me?" he asked, hoping for an invitation.
"Nothing." Erica answered warmly, "I don't believe in office affairs."
"That sucks." Rick answered jokingly, allowing the conversation to play out.
"So is it a yes, or no?" she probed further.
"I think you're asking the wrong person." He answered.
"Well?" Erica asked as she turned to Tanya.
Tanya began to feel the burn between her legs as she gazed into Erica's deep green eyes. "I don't know." She answered nervously, but with a deep hint of interest.
"Is it remotely tempting?" Erica asked further, holding out her hand, hoping Tanya would take it.
Tanya softly bit her lip as she contemplated the offer. She placed her hand in Erica's and squeezed lightly, unsure of where to go from here. Accepting her hand was not acceptance, but a sign of interest only. Erica stood from the table, and led Tanya to the restroom for a moment of private conversation. "We'll be back in a minute." She told Rick as they disappeared down the hall.
Erica led Tanya through the restroom door and checked to make sure they were alone. Finding no one else inside, she leaned Tanya against the counter and stood inches away from her. Close enough to lean in for a kiss, but far enough away to back off if the door opened suddenly.
"I find you very attractive." Erica said as she gazed into Tanya's eyes, "I have no interest in 'converting' you, as some straight people would call it. I also have no interest in breaking up an obviously great marriage. I'm no threat to Rick, and we both know that he's ok with this."
"Why me?" Tanya asked nervously.
"I haven't been with anyone in over a year." Erica answered, "You're the first woman that's really talked to me about something besides work in a long time, and I found myself VERY attracted to you from the first moment I laid eyes on you. I picked up on your curiosity, and well... I'd like to help you explore it. You've pushed every single one of my buttons tonight, and I'm soaking wet right now, hoping you'll say yes."
"I don't know." Tanya answered, tempted but afraid, "I've never done anything like this."
"Everything starts with a first time." Erica reassured her, "You know Rick would love to have a threesome. I'm not interested, but you'll know everything you need to make it happen for him."
"I've haven't been with anyone else since we got married." Tanya said, "I don't know that I would want to do anything without him there."
"Tanya," she began, "Let's remove the tension here. Not committing to anything... Not being nice to save my feelings... Do you find the idea of me making love to you appealing?"
"You know that I do." Tanya replied.
