Claire and I have been friends for ages. From the moment we first met we've felt like soul mates. It was Saturday morning and I had popped over for a natter and a catch up, and she was telling me about the fact that she hasn't had a break in ages.
"I'm exhausted Fiona," she said, running a hand through her beautiful, shoulder length blonde hair. "I need to get away and have some me time, but I don't know how I can."
I looked at her and thought to myself that she did look a bit harassed. I wondered if everything was alright, "Is there something wrong? No problems with Jackie?" Claire is a single mum, and has her daughter most of the time.
"No! No! Really. I just feel I'm burning the candle at both ends."
"Phew," I said, relieved. A thought came to me. "Why don't we have a girly weekend away? A cottage in the country, or a spa or go down to London and have a weekend in the smoke?"
"But I can't just up and leave Jackie," she replied.
"Of course you can, darling. That rat of an ex can take her a weekend, surely? We could leave on a Friday and be back Sunday afternoon. We can plan it. I know Brian will be fine with it. He keeps telling me I should have some me time, because I never get a break either."
Claire sat and thought about it, holding her coffee cup between her hands, her beautiful brow furrowed. "Let me think about it. I'll call Charles tonight and see what he says."
"Think about it. It could be great. What would you want to do," I asked, "assuming you decide to."
She thought for a moment. "I think I'd like to go to the big city. More to do, more chances to socialise and have fun."
"Deal. You talk it over with Charles and I'll do some searching for weekend breaks."
We finished up our coffee and I left, giving her a hug and a peck on her cheek, and making her promise once again to think seriously about it.
Let me tell you about Claire. She's a knockout, with such a lovely, cheeky smile that just lights up the room. She's also got a knockout figure, and I mean knockout. Those wonderful boobs of hers could take your eye out. She's always complaining that they're too big, but I actually am jealous. I'd love to be so blessed. She's a 38dd, I'm a 34b. So when we go shopping, we can't exactly buy the same outfits and try them on, but I do love going shopping with her. We always have such a great time, and she's such a laugh. I swear she's an exhibitionist. She's always flashing her flesh at every opportunity. I've seen her blouse come "accidentally" open on more than one occasion.
When I got home, I started looking on the internet for some weekend breaks in London, and found a couple of reasonably priced options staying at quite fancy places in the West End.
The next morning I got a very excited call from Claire.
"Fiona, It's on! And if we can do it, next weekend works really well because Charles says he'd love to have Jackie and spoil her a bitt."
I was so thrilled, "Claire, that's brilliant. I found a couple of great deals. Do you want me to come over so you can see them so we can choose? There are some that are a bit expensive, but if we shared a room we could do it. And it's my treat. Brian insisted."
I could hear the excitement in her voice as she said, "Wow! That's wonderful. But I can pay my way you know!"
"I insist, and I won't take no for an answer. You can buy me dinner."
She pretended to sigh, "Oh, okay. If you must. And as for the hotel, I trust you. Just pick one and it will be a nice surprise."
So I picked one in a swanky hotel, right in the heart of the West End. We would have to share a room, but that didn't bother me. After all we'd be going out most of the time.
Friday came, and Claire and I met at the station to get the train. Claire got out of the taxi and I was immediately knocked over by the outfit she was wearing. She was showing a lot of her gorgeous cleavage, and was wearing a loose, pale pink, above the knee skirt that was one of those that looks like it could be see through but isn't. I was just in a boring tee shirt and jeans, and felt very drab next to her.
She ran over with her case, and we hugged and air kissed. We were like a couple of schoolgirls, giggling in excitement.
"Okay, let's go," I said, taking my pull along case. I had the train tickets already, and so we went straight through and fifteen minutes later we were on the train, in First Class, puling out of the station. It was a Friday lunchtime, so there weren't many people, and none other than us in our carriage. We sat in the big comfy seats facing each other. We were talking about what we'd do, what we'd sight see.
At some point in all this, Claire decided to get more comfortable and lifted her legs up to tuck them underneath her, and as she did, the hem of her skirt lifted briefly and I was shocked when I realised what I had just caught a glimpse of.
I was pretty sure that Claire wasn't wearing any knickers. The way her legs were parted I was sure I could see her pussy lips, and also that she was completely bald down there.
Now, I should explain that I am not a lesbian. Obviously. I'm married with an almost grown up son. But I have often had fantasies about being with another woman. And yes, I mean masturbation fantasies. And some of those fantasies have involved Claire. Quite a lot of them actually. Of course, I've never acted on them, it's always been just that: A fantasy. But this brief glimpse of her pussy sent my head spinning. I already mentioned that she was an exhibitionist, but that was just her wonderful boobs. I felt a stirring in-between my own legs at the sight. This had the effect of making me keep trying to catch furtive glances of her as we talked, and I kept losing track of the conversation.
"Fiona? What do you think?"
I looked up, "Sorry, hun, I was miles away. Think about what?"
She grinned at me, "I knew you weren't listening! Think about going to that Jamie Oliver restaurant. I booked us in for tonight."
"Oh wow! That is wonderful! Yes, perfect."
