Chapter 02: Delusional Clarity
--------------------------------
...I'm kinda slaying tbh...
Lexi felt in her power today. She bounced on her feet subconsciously, one hand steadying herself on a railing in the bus and the other gripping her purse strap. She was so excited! She got promoted to VIP clients at the dog groomers last week, which came with a nice pay rise. Yes, it's not making her millions but it's nice pocket change while she gets acclimated to the city. Anika had to leave early for a business trip that would take most of the day, and Lexi wanted to surprise her by buying some costumes and lingerie.
For Lexi, missing a morning session with Anika had devastating outcomes on her day. She could already feel a dull ache between her legs. The thought of grinding one out on the railing while the bus bounced was seriously considered. She was snapped out of by the rush of air from the bus pneumatics as it stopped.
She walked off with a few strangers and was blasted by cold air hitting her face. She glanced up, seeing a cloudless sky. She scanned her surroundings for the quickest route to her destination. A fairly well-kept shopping mall greeted her a short walk away. She went straight to the lingerie department store and immediately went shopping with her eyes. Only a few people were inside with her, which made sense, as it was around 2:00 PM on a Tuesday. The myriad of outfits were doing nothing to help Lexi's predicament. She went to the fantasy section of clothing and outfits and started imagining her and Anika wearing them.
...how am I gonna make it through today...
She also started thinking about a third, imaginary lady wearing one too. She just realized it was odd that despite all of the different kinks she had explored with Anika, neither of them ever even discussed a threesome.
...there's no way we never even discussed it once?... right?...
Lexi racked her brain for a conversation and found nothing. She was tugged from the thought as she saw a forest nymph outfit. It looked incredibly well done, with fishnets and a beautiful deep green velvet thigh-high skirt. She subconsciously rolled the pleats of the skirt between her fingers, enjoying the soft but textured feel. The skirt was complemented by a mesh tank top and a leathery bra with divots made to look like tree bark.
...Fuckkk I want to try this one on...
"Hi! Do you want to try that on?" a store clerk asked.
She was in her late 20's, maybe a year older than Lexi. Immediately, Lexi gravitated towards her assets. Much larger than Lexi's, complemented by a "fuck-me" waist. This girl basically looked like one of the sex dolls she and Anika toyed around with. Lexi barely held in a sigh as she glanced at her nametag, which said Kylie. She then glanced up and met her hazel eyes. Kylie was maybe an inch taller than her.
...She should get paid to wear the brand of her gym...
"There are dressing rooms behind that costume rack on the left, please let me know if you need anything at all"
"Thanks, yeah... I think I'll go try this on" Lexi stammered back.
"Awesome, I think you'd look smashing in that. If you need any help with your outfit please don't hesitate to ask" Kylie said. Was that a hint of a British accent? Lexi liked it, whatever it was.
...I very well might, I'd accept anything from you...
Did she wink? Lexi couldn't be sure. Lexi stumbled into the dressing room and gently fell back onto the wall, sighing from exasperation. She couldn't believe what was going on! Anika is so perfect but Lexi was filled with the thought of cheating right then and there. Was it just a horny thought or was there more to it? The more she thought about it, the more she realized, she didn't know how they met. So many things aren't aligning. It's as if Anika just plopped into her life one day.
...Am I crazy??...
Lexi quickly checked her phone while all of these thoughts were racing through her mind. Nothing. No contact info, no recently missed calls, no Instagram profile. It's as if Anika never existed. What was going on? Lexi was deeply concerned about her Anika discovery, but that could wait. She had more important matters to tend to. She paused, glanced around the room, taking everything in. Mirror, clothes rack, bench. Not a whole lot to be creative with. It was a large room, and Lexi's horny little mind went straight to work. She was wearing skinny jeans that were oppressively restrictive, but that kinda added some spice for Lexi.
...God I need to get this out of my system fast...
She got down on her knees and immediately lined up with the corner of the bench. She let her weight shift forward onto her hand which she gripped the bench with. She slowly lifted up a leg and enjoyed how much her jeans fought against the movement. Slowly inching forward, she would get within inches of touching the bench corner with herself. The denial every time she moved forward was driving her crazy! She could start to feel herself get light-headed. She paused.
...I should give her a call real quick...
She dialed Anika and was met with a number out of service tone. The more she thought about it, the more trance-like she thought toward Anika. She remembered having these intense moments with her but she felt like sharing a moment with someone in a dream. She knew it wasn't real. It never was. Lexi felt each memory of Anika falling away between her fingers, until there were only a couple grains left. While the thought of living an imaginary life with the best partner and friend imaginable, both sexually and otherwise, was concerning, Lexi continued.
She backed away into the downward dog position, imagining the store clerk Kylie mounting her from behind, her arms gripping her waist, pressing herself into Lexi's back. Lexi spread her legs and arched her back as much as she could, slowly gyrating her hips. She braced one foot on the wall and continued slowly grinding the air.
...I need to buy some tighter jeans...
She let herself drop lower to the floor, cheek pushed against the floor, loving the cold laminated feeling that spread across her face. She knew it was unhygienic but knowing she was doing this out of depravity excited her more. Imagining Kylie was eating her out from behind, she let her hips drop lower, and put the forest nymph outfit between her legs and slowly started humping it. She exhaled deeply and repeated the movements, pausing for a few seconds before another one. She noticed she was leaking through her jeans slightly.
...Oh my god am I really doing this?...
*knock* *knock* *knock*
"Oh shit", Lexi whispered to herself, as she quickly but as quietly as possible got up.
"Uhh... yes, occupied," Lexi said.
"Umm, hi, was wondering if you needed any help trying anything on?" said a voice Lexi knew was Kylie's.
