I cursed Bev one more time when the notice for my reservation popped up in email. I suppose I got what I had deserved for starting the relationship my pussy argued for, but my head warned was a bad idea. Bev on a good night was amazing, but what a temper. That temper drove me right out the door. Because I was afraid we might have a real fistfight if I didn't go.
Call me Anne, because that's my name. I'm tall for a girl, slim with short blonde hair, though I accent it because my natural shade is boring. I'm a femme because I like being a girl. I like jewelry (costume only until my ship comes in, after that watch out!), short skirts, high heels, tight dresses, and even tighter jeans to show off. I liked eyes on me, did then and still do.
But I had a week's reservation in Gatlinburg, a non-refundable deposit and no one to go with, and that's it occurred to me that maybe the smart thing to do was to invite Sandi. She too, was fresh from a break-up, but this one came out of the clear blue. To all my friends, Clarissa and Sandi were the couple who would not only make but go beyond 'til death do us part.'
Nobody ever imagined Clarissa would just up and leave Sandi. My friend was really broken up over it and never said what happened. So I decided to ask. I'd always liked Sandi. As she was now free I figured it would be fun if she went along. We both had wild oats to sow, and I knew Sandi well enough to think that left to her own devices she might stew and withdraw. I figured a torrid fling would be the best way to get her over Clarissa and ready for somebody new.
But not with me, not that I didn't think Sandi was cute. Sandi is petite and voluptuous, sort of like Dolly Parton with dark hair and smaller cups. Considering Dolly, that wasn't saying much. She had fair skin and dark brown hair that hung over her shoulders, full cheeks, big pale blue eyes that everybody commented on. She was my first call.
"Get out of Indiana for a week?" she said when I asked. "With you?"
"It's ot like Bev's around any more," I told her. "We both have wild oats that need sowing."
"Not so sure about the wild oats, but I'm glad you asked. I need a break in the worst way," she said. And so it happened that a week or so later we hopped in my GTI and headed down the interstate to Tennessee, the land of Dollywood.
Sandi hadn't spoken to anyone about their breakup except to acknowledge it, including me, and I'd helped her move out. That worried me. I figured we had a week together, so I'd give her time. Plus, a multi-hour drive needs filling with more than my music stream and mindless gossip. I figured she'd open up if I was patient. I drove.
She sulked. Then finally Sandi decided to fill me in. "You know, sometimes you never really know somebody."
I lifted my hand from the shifter to give hers a squeeze. God, I hope she was finally ready to talk. She squeezed my fingers and kept holding them, but finally the story came out. Her voice quavered as she began to talk. "You know what started this? I asked Clarissa to marry me."
Whoa! I mean, if any of our friends were likely to get hitched I figured it was them. "I'd have thought she'd ask you."
"She didn't," she said. "I got tired of waiting and popped the question. she got weird. I did some digging and found out why. You know how she spent every other week on the road?"
"Isn't that what corporate sales people do?" I asked.
"It wasn't just her work. I found out she has another family near Chicago. Complete with a first wife and kids."
Holy fucking shit! Talk about dropping a bomb on somebody. "I thought only men did that shit!"
"So did I." Sandi sort of laughed through her tears. "I never questioned her. I just trusted in the woman I loved. I feel like such a fool! But Anner, there were topics you didn't bring up with her. She had a temper of her own, but it was cold. Get on her bad side and it was the silent treatment. I would never have put up with Bev like you did."
"Bev was like Vesuvius," I said. "When she blew anything could happen. That's why I split. Clarissa seemed calm."
"Cold is more like it. I watched Bev order you around like a slave. I kept wondering why you put up with that."
"Because part of me liked it. I'm a bit kinky." I was glad to bring up sex, because that was another thing Sandi never talked about. s
"You? You're so forward. I would never have thought Ann Sator was into being dominated."
"You'd be wrong. Trust me, Bev la Butch is all domme," I said. "And I really like to bottom. At least most of the time. But she never, ever let up. Never was a time when we could be like a normal couple. Even in bed, it started annoying me. For example, Bev could fuck me, but I could never fuck her."
"Jeez," she said. "I'd heard that about her. How'd you get her off?" That was the first question I'd ever ever heard Sandi ask about sex
"With my mouth and my fingers when she was really close."
"Well, everyone gets off that way."
"Some of the time," I said with a grin. "There are ways, and there are ways."
"Anne, are you going to get pervy on me?" Sandi said but she was smiling, This was the first time we'd ever explicitly discussed sex. I thought she'd benefit from getting laid. I'd read of a gay club near Gatlinburg where we might hook up for fun therapeutic flings. I was quite happy to keep sex in the discussion.
"Bev had her issues, our sex was epic most of the time."
"What about the Backdoor Bev nickname? Rumors true?"
"Oh, she's totally into sodomy, so long as I was on the receiving end," I said. "Which I also adored."
Sandi's eyes lit up. "You're into that?"
"I most certainly am. I was before I met Bev. Remember when I dated Casey from the City Rollers?"
"The roller derby queen? I remember you dragging me to a couple of matches. She was a big girl, but she had something. I guess you do have a thing for dominant women."
"Well, it's time for a change," I said. "I liked Casey, but she got transferred to Wichita. I'm not at all sure I'd flourish in Kansas. Plus, we were never super-serious. But she was fun and opened my eyes to some new things."
"Anne, you are quite the perv."
"Don't knock pervy 'til you've tried it."
"What's it like?" Sandi asked.
I changed lanes to get into the lane for Gatlinburg. "Well, your anus is packed with nerve endings, so it's intense. Plus, you feel double-dare naughty and that's hot! But you must take your time. But patience is part of the fun, the build-up to the grande finale you both know is coming. And don't spare the lube. My butt doesn't juice up like my pussy."
