Soccer Moms -- Part 15
[Author's Notes: 1) Everyone in this story is over 18; 2) This is a work of fiction and so certain aspects of this story relating to college soccer not completely accurate, but they advance the storyline. Please try to look past that to the more important aspects of the story; and 3) This is the penultimate Chapter for Soccer Moms. However, Carol and Jen and some others will still feature in the companion story which will be following shortly. And as the tag for the first story said this was "the beginning of one woman's path of discovery." So we will complete that path eventually.]
When Carol finally got home from her weekend at her old college for the Soccer Homecoming and stadium Dedication, she knew her next call had to be to Megan Sims. She had to thank her for the pep talk and she also wanted to know exactly what had happened when she sent her to the airport with Jessica all those months before. All Jessica had said was that her and Megan had become fast friends but she would give no more details than that. At first Carol's mood kept her from pursuing more information. With her renewed zest for life, she had been more conversant with people, but now even though she was trying, she had not been able to wheedle out any more information from Jessica. And she had a plan for how she would go about loosening up Megan's tongue. "
I might even get her to tell me what happened with Jessica.
" she quipped to herself.
Carol called Megan and right from the start of the conversation Megan noticed the change in Carol's voice and hoped it meant a change in her mood. "Carol you sound positively chipper."
"I am and I have you to thank for that Megan. That was some tough love you gave me the last time we talked but it was just the thing I needed. So I am back in the game and I want to thank you. Not just for the talk although that was so important for me. But also for all that you did coming to the airport, and organizing all that help. It was extremely kind of you. So I would like you to come to dinner if you don't have any plans for this Friday, say around 6:30?"
Fortunately Megan did not have anything else planned at the moment and she agreed to come over for dinner. "What would you like me to bring?" Megan asked. Carol had expected Megan would ask this and she had planned her response. She could only hope that Megan would take the offer favorably. "Megan all I want you to bring is yourself, a toothbrush and that strap-on you had at that soccer tournament two years." Carol closed her eyes and waited, hoping she hadn't gone too far.
Megan had been flabbergasted by the request and so it took her a moment to get over the shock and answer. Carol was getting worried she might have insulted her friend with the implicit assumption of her request. Megan finally replied "I can do that."
After a deep sigh of relief, Carol said "Great. I'll see you at 6:30 then." She was not only back in the game, Carol was aiming to be an MVP Candidate.
At 6:25 Megan pulled up in front of Carol's house. She took a deep breath and made sure she was okay with all this. Megan had had an extremely active sex life in college, mostly involving other women. When she had first gotten divorced Megan had gone back to that wild side. Carol had been the first woman she had sex with after the divorce. Since then she had continued to have a lot of sex with both men and women. But this would actually be the third time her and Carol had sex if she went through with it. She thought back to the day of the plane crash. When she first saw that it was Carol calling, her first thought had been about having sex again. Then she learned of Paul's death and she went into full scale "helpful friend" mode.
Then there was that day when she was with Carol and Carol was so vulnerable which only made her seem that much sexier. But Megan couldn't take advantage of her in her grief like that. And so she vented her own frustration at Carol. And yelled at her pretty harshly. She regretted it later but was too ashamed to even call and apologize.
Well apparently karma worked this time. Because she had not taken advantage of Carol when she probably could have (and if she were completely honest with herself part of her wanted to) she was frustrated and yelled at Carol. But somehow, that yelling had actually helped Carol. And now she had a chance to have the sex she wanted to have again.
Megan didn't want to take advantage of Carol, but she had sounded so happy on the phone. Megan finally decided that this might be just the thing Carol needed right now. Megan knew it would be fun. She grabbed the bottle of wine she hadn't been asked to bring and the bag with her toothbrush and the strap-on and harness that Carol had requested and went to the front door.
Megan rang the doorbell and heard
"Come on in! The door is open!"
from inside the house. Megan entered and then heard
"I'm in the kitchen! Dinner is almost ready!"
Megan put down the bag on the couch and walked toward the kitchen with the bottle of wine. As she was entering she said "I know you didn't ask, but I brought a bottle of wine an..." Megan stopped right in her tracks and almost dropped the bottle. Standing at the stove in nothing but a cooking apron and four inch heels was Carol Rogers.
Carol turned and walked over to Megan. She took the bottle from her hands and said "Thank you Megan. That was very thoughtful of you." She then took the bottle and put it in to the refrigerator to chill. Then she went back to the stove acting as if there was nothing strange or unusual about the situation.
Megan had not moved from the spot. As Carol was putting the finishing touches on the meal Megan finally found her voice. "Carol, may I ask what the hell you are doing cooking naked?"
"Well, remember the summer when the girls went to those soccer camps. With Katie gone for those weeks, Paul and I were the only ones in the house, so we started going around naked. It got to be that we were used to it and on more than one occasion we had to catch ourselves as we were about to have someone over or have food delivered. When Katie went to school it was all the time. Now you don't have to do it if you don't want to. And if it makes you uncomfortable at all, I can go put some clothes on. But it's just about time to sit down for dinner now."
Megan realized that as the fast and loose divorcee she couldn't let the housefrau one up her, so she unzipped her dress and let it fall to the floor. She picked it up and walked out to the living room and laid her dress over the back of the love seat. Then she took off her bra and panties but left her pumps on and went back into the kitchen to eat dinner with the very naked Carol Rogers.
Both women sat down and began eating and making casual conversation. Neither wanted to be the first to bring up the fact that they were eating naked in Carol Rogers' kitchen. They consumed their meal and the bottle of wine that Megan and brough and done a fairly good job on a second bottle before Megan finally broke. "Carol, I still cannot get over you. I always thought of you as this stuffy housefrau and it turns out you're a nudist and you have trysts with college girls..."
"Jessica is a grad student" Carol corrected Megan.
