Walking into a room with the two of them inside, an outsider would sense their connection immediately. They shared that particular kind of mutual lust that manages to completely exclude all others, yet keep them entranced in its spell all the same, bestowing a longing to know its depths upon the observer. No matter...these two weren't going to share their secrets.
The first time it happened was a surprise for both women. Neither had known the true depths of each other's sexuality at that stage, and their lovemaking was rushed and frenzied at first, both of them desperately craving release, needing to experience everything each other had to offer all at once. The fact that both of them were in serious relationships only added to the clandestine nature of their union, fueling the spark of feeling between them. Over time however, as friendships deepened and developed, the spark didn't so much as die down or fade, as reach a steadiness, an undercurrent that was always there, but not often explored. Monique had settled into domestic bliss with her partner, Paul, with the acquisition of a comfortable 3 bedroom home in suburbia. Tanya and Marcus had recently become engaged and were also enjoying the day to day joys of cohabitation. Under the veneer of normalcy and respectability, however, the embers of desire still burnt between the two women, and it was only a matter of time before the fire started...
It was a typical girly shopping trip that had led to their latest encounter. With the purchase of new lingerie in mind, something intended for sharing with their boys, they headed together to the lingerie boutique that had recently opened in their local shopping mall. But for weeks beforehand, there had been that burning feeling of sexual need in Tanya's stomach, and every time she looked at Monique and read the message in her hungry eyes, she knew it was mutual. It was likely that both of them knew, or at least had some idea, of what might happen on this particular shopping trip, but neither wanted to stop it from occurring.
In the store, manned only by a bored looking sales assistant who eyed them once as they walked in, then immediately returned to her magazine, Monique selected a black and white pinstripe bra and panty set and looked up at Tanya questionably for approval.
