The hazy dim interior of the bar was foreign territory to the young brown-haired woman. Why was she here? It wasn't like her to visit the bars, let alone a dyke bar. All around her women of all sorts jostled and gyrated on the dance floor. The music, a wild rock beat, made the whole place vibrate. She sat, broodily meditating her drink. She just wanted to forget the pain in her head and in her heart.
Lost in her own pain and thoughts she didn't notice one particular woman watching her. The bouncer for the club, a tall, well muscled woman, with raven black hair and deep brown eyes, couldn't stop staring at the petite brunette with the ocean blue eyes.
Several times different women offered to buy the young woman a drink, but she declined the offers one and all. She wasn't interested in meeting a woman, she just wanted to get drunk and forget.
Earlier that evening, she had gotten into a huge fight with her boyfriend of two years. She wanted commitment, he wasn't ready he said. They had fought and it ended up with her telling him it was over and storming away.
Now she was here, in this bar, just trying to erase the last two years of her life and forget, if only for a moment that she was now single again. She didn't like it. She didn't do well on her own.
After her third scotch on the rocks, she was starting to feel good. Beginning to forget. Beginning to look around her and notice the women on the dance floor. She couldn't help but notice the tall, dark haired woman with the rock hard body standing by the door, checking ID's.
Was she being watched? Was the tall woman with the soul piercing brown eyes watching her? She licked her lips in unconscious thought of how the dark woman's body would feel pressed tightly to hers. Wait a minute! She wasn't a lesbian! She had never thought of making love to a woman before. Why now? Surly the alcohol had some part in it. It had to be that, she reasoned.
Try as she would, she couldn't help the thoughts that flooded her mind. She continued looking at the enticing, hard body by the door, letting her mind wander.
She was surprised, when a large inebriated butch sat down beside of her.
"Lemme buy ya a drink, baby." The drunken woman said
"No thanks, I have one." Came the reply
"Awww, c'mon sweetie, you wanna go some place and get better acquainted?" the drunk said as she started mauling the young brown-haired woman's tits through her shirt.
"No! Get away from me!" The brown-haired woman spat, and tried to fight the drunk off of her.
They struggled. The young woman was beginning to lose the battle, when suddenly; the drunken woman just seemed to melt off of her.
"Now, Candy" the bouncer said to the big drunk, "you aught to know that when a lady says no, she means no. Now get on home before I have to toss you out!" this last statement was emphasized by another twist to the arm that was already held high behind the drunks back.
"Owwww! Ok Teri! I'm going! Just thought the little lady needed some company is all." Candy said, slumping back as the pressure on her arm was released. A moment later the big butch was lurching for the door.
" I.. I don't know how to thank you." The brown-haired woman stammered as she looked into the deepest eyes she had ever seen. Did she see hunger in those eyes? Or was it just her imagination?
No problem, miss....err miss?" Teri didn't even know her name.
"Ohhh, sorry, my name is Bri. And you are?"
"Teri" the bouncer said with a quick smile.
Bri thought ' what a gorgeous voice she has' "Hi Teri, and thanks for getting that drunk off of me"
"Again, no problem Bri, it's my job after all." Teri looked into those bright, open, ocean blue eyes and was immediately lost.
How could just a look have her so rattled? True, she hadn't been with anyone for over three years since she and her partner had called it quits, but never before had any one held her thoughts like this tiny brown haired, blue eyed beauty did. She took a deep breath and said " Would you like another drink?"
"Yes I think I would" Bri said "but only if you will have one with me." My Gods! Had she just invited this butch to have a drink with her? What was she thinking? Again the black cloud of guilt puffed up. Why was she getting so turned on by this woman? She was straight! However, she could not deny the tingle in her pussy. It was subtle but there.
Before Bri could change her mind, Teri said, "I get off work in half an hour, if you are still here, I'd be happy to have a drink with you." Teri was giving her an escape route. Had she seen the fright in Bri's eyes? Could she sense the brunette's apprehension?
"Ok, I'd like that." Bri said with a smile. "I'll be right here." What was she saying? Was she giving the dark eyed woman an invitation to more than just a drink?
Half an hour later, Bri was slightly surprised as Teri walked up, a scotch on the rocks in one hand and a Coor's in the other. She sat down at the small table across from Bri and again looked into the most beautiful blue eyes she had ever seen. She slid the scotch across the table to Bri and took a long pull from her beer.
"How come you are here?" Teri asked in her beautiful contralto voice. "You don't belong here, you know."
Bri blushed. Was it that obvious that she was not a lesbian? "Wh...why do ..you say that?" she stuttered.
"You are too pretty to be spending your Friday nights alone in a dyke bar." came the reply.
Bri blushed deep crimson and dropped her eyes to her drink. She had not expected that. She had thought Teri would tell her it wasn't good for a straight woman to be alone in a dyke bar.
"Thanks...ummm, thanks.." it was all she could think to say. She looked up and directly into those deep soul searing dark eyes. Again she flushed, but not from embarrassment. The tingle between her legs said that this hard bodied woman was getting to her, turning her on...she didn't know how to react to that.
"So, why are you here tonight?" the question Teri put to her was so sincere that before she knew it, she was pouring her heart out to this perfect stranger. How she and her ex had fought, and how she had finally told him to go to hell because he would never be able to commit to her.. how she had come to this bar because it was close to her apartment just to get drunk and forget. She ended her story in tears, mainly because she again realized she had no one waiting for her at home now, her ex-boyfriend had promised to be packed and gone by the time she came home.
She felt a strong arm slip around her shoulder and all she could do was to bury her face in the shoulder of the dark woman and sob.
Teri held her as she cried, not knowing what else to do but strangely not feeling a bit uncomfortable doing it either. Normally she would feel ill at ease with such an emotional display, but she felt like she was where she belonged, just holding the tiny sobbing woman.
Slowly, Bri came to realize where she was and what she was doing. She sat up and sniffed..."I'm sorry" she said "You didn't need that." She smiled sheepishly.
Teri's hand came up and brushed a stray tear from Bri's face, again looking into those beautiful blue eyes, now rimmed in red from crying. "Don't worry about it, we've all been through things like that in one form or another." She thought briefly back to her own harsh breakup three years earlier, but quickly swept those memories back into the recesses of her mind. Her grip on the brunette's shoulders tightened in a friendly hug. Teri had been trying to ignore the feelings that holding Bri had brought to the surface. It had been so long since she had held a woman like this. Suddenly, she pushed away from the brunette and said" Hey, it's getting late. Would you like a ride home?"
Bri thought about it, it was only a few blocks to her apartment building. She could walk it easily. But what if she got there and Tom was still there? She didn't want to think about that. She didn't want to face him again. It was over and she never wanted to see him again. " I would love a ride home." She said
"Ok, let's blow this place." Teri said standing tall and holding out a hand to the tiny brunette.
