Two weeks later the events of that night were still on Jennie's mind. She wasn't a lesbian, she knew that for certain; but still, the memory of that cheaply-made television porno and seeing those two women doing those things with each other still caused a strangely pleasant itch which needed to be scratched. In fact it was becoming more than distracting, something her co-workers had started to notice.
"I don't know what's wrong with you," Her colleague Sam said at lunch, "but you really need to get laid."
Jennie almost choked on her sandwich, coughing and spluttering as Sam kept calming spooning her organic yoghurt into her mouth as if she'd commented on the weather or something.
Finally getting herself under control Jennie stared at her friend in disbelief. "What the hell do you mean by that?"
"Oh, come on. You've been wriggling in your seat for a fortnight. Unless you're needing to see a doctor you need to get stuffed." Sam said, as she helped herself to Jennie's leftover sandwich. "In fact, I have a doctor in mind who could do both, just in case."
"I do not need to be set up, thank you. I can find myself a... someone." She wasn't sure why she stopped herself from saying 'a man', or why she kept seeing those two women naked every time she closed her eyes.
"Okay, fine." Sam said, covering her mouth with her hand as the crumbs from Jennie's sandwich splattered over her blouse. Jennie didn't know how Sam managed it, her manners were appalling and most of the time she took everyone and everything for granted, but she was still the best friend Jennie had in the office and somehow they managed to spend almost as much time together out of it. "How about we split the difference? I take you out tonight and you find yourself a man."
Jennie shook her head as she tidied away the last of her lunch, as well as Sam's. "Not tonight, I have..."
"You don't have anything." Sam interrupted with a tone of casual indifference, darting forwards to snatch the last cookie before Jennie could spirit it away. "And if you don't I'll call your mom and tell her you'll be at home all night."
That was as bad a threat as any that Sam could've made. Jennie's mom had been retired for years, and all that spare time gave her plenty of opportunity to indulge in her favourite pastime of gathering gossip on people Jennie barely knew and cared about even less. If her mom knew she'd be free for the evening it would be guaranteed Jennie would be trapped on the phone as all the latest tidbits of triviality where reported to her in excruciating detail.
"Alright, you win." Jennie said with a resigned sigh. "Nowhere too rough though, we both have work tomorrow and I don't want to be nursing another hangover."
Sam grinned mischievously. "Of course, you can trust me can't you?"
Jennie didn't need to reply, she just gave Sam a steady disbelieving stare until they both broke out giggling.
Several hours later Jennie found herself standing in front of the mirror admiring her going-out clothes. The short dress cut just close enough to her butt to give some guy the hopes of seeing her panties while at the same time being long enough to make sure they didn't, and an almost invisible bodice which gave her chest the C cups Mother Nature had forgotten.
Whatever anyone else thought, she liked the way she looked. Striking a slutty pose she blew herself a kiss, only to jump as the door buzzer startled her. It was Sam, wearing a similar outfit only with an even shorter skirt and tighter top.
"Wow. Are you really going out dressed like that?" Jennie said, her voice dripping with equal measures of shame and pride.
Sam pouted at her, just like a rebellious teenager. "And who are you, not my mother to be sure."
The two of them started giggling again as Jennie grabbed her purse and giving herself a final look in the hallway mirror headed out. As they climbed into the taxi Sam had waiting for them Jennie couldn't help but catch a glimpse of her friend's thighs, the view unencumbered by any sign of cloth beneath the miniskirt. Leaning in a little closer Jennie whispered in Sam's ear curiously, "Are you wearing a thong tonight?"
"Nope." Sam said with a beaming smile. Jennie just stared at her confused for a moment before her friend quickly whipped her skirt aside, flashing her bare crotch for the briefest of moments before covering herself up again.
"Sam!" Jennie exclaimed, darting her gaze towards the driver to make sure he hadn't seen the shameless display. Grabbing Sam's arm she pulled her close. "Why aren't you wearing any panties?"
Sam preened like a prideful cat, fluttering her lashes playfully. "They just get in the way. I wanna make sure if a guy wants to fuck on the dance floor nothing's gonna stop him."
Jennie barked out a laugh. "You're serious, aren't you?"
"I sure am."
The reply left Jennie speechless, she wanted to tell her friend how much of a bad idea it was but at the same time the vision of Sam naked in the middle of a crowd, her body moving in time to some hidden beat as some stranger's hands traced their way over her curves left Jennie's mouth dry.
By the time Jennie could pull herself out of her fugue the taxi was already pulling up outside the club. A long queue stretched down the sidewalk as far as the pale streetlight reached but Sam ignored it, heading straight towards the large, muscular bouncer standing by the door.
"Hey Mike, is he in tonight?" She asked in a casual manner which showed her not only to be a regular but also a well-connected one.
"Not tonight, but he left your name on the list so he may be in later on." The bouncer answered as he plucked the silk cord from its pole and stepped aside to let the girls pass.
"Thanks." Sam smiled at him, letting her hand rest on his chest for a moment longer than it should have. "Drop by when you're on break and I'll get you a drink."
"Sure thing." The bouncer replied with a smile, the kind that left Jennie wondering if that drink might include a dance.
Inside the club the party was in full swing, loud music pounding the air as the throng of people flowed together in a single mass. Jennie felt a little awkward, she hadn't really been out on the town since her separation and she wasn't even sure if she was ready to be looking for someone new. Plus the thoughts she'd been having lately left her wondering just who she should be looking for anyway, and until she worked that out for herself she didn't really feel like placing herself on the market.
Sam on the other hand looked right at home, moving through the crowd like a fish moving through water. Occasionally she'd wave to someone or stop to exchange a few words in greeting as she slowly made her way over to the VIP section, where the hostess waved her through without a second glance. As they settled into a booth overlooking the main dance floor Jennie couldn't help but notice the two girls sitting below who seemed less interested about their surroundings than they were with each other.
From the way they looked the girls must've been in their early twenties, or at least very well dressed up late teens. The redhead had pale skin and a pierced upper lip to go with a nose-stud which complimented her complexion perfectly. Her companion had very deep, dark skin, almost a solid mahogany colour which clashed with her bleached hair in a way which drew attention to her wide, beautiful eyes.
Jennie's eyes lingered as the two girls snuggled close together, neither of them doing anything but the air between them heavy with anticipation. After a few moments of rapt attention Jennie realised Sam had been saying something to her, looking around in bewilderment she refocused herself back to her friend, "Sorry, what was that?"
Sam's eyes took on a sharp look as she studied her friend's face for a second. "I was asking if you wanted something to drink, but if you'd prefer a taste of whoever you've been watching I'm sure I could arrange that instead."
