Forward
If you have not read my "Harmless Flirting" story already, I strongly recommended that you do so, BEFORE reading any of the three endings. I was very torn over how to end this one so I decided to offer a variety. I will be interested in the acceptance of each ending and am uploading them one at a time to allow the reader to digest an ending before rushing to the next offering.
Note: In each of the 3 endings, Donna's character is tweaked slightly to fit that ending.

In the same vein as TV shows who include at the beginning: "Last time on ... "
When we left off, Donna found a ride home with Jack and came in the house while Will was watching video clips of dancing: he and Chrissy plus Donna and whoever. After some discussion Will had decided not to discuss things further until the next day, when everyone was sober, and directs Donna to the master bedroom, he elects the spare room.
We begin with both of them awake and Donna pouring two coffees in the kitchen, while Will boots up his laptop.
**************************************
"Will, I don't really need to see these clips again; I get your point. Besides, I think that you went further with Chrissy, than I ever did while dancing with anyone." She then headed to the bathroom and Will heard her phone ring and from what he could make out it was Cindy. The phone call lasted a good 20 minutes, Will finished getting the lap top ready and waited.
When she came back into the kitchen he said, "Actually, I think we both need to look at them at least one more time through stone cold sober eyes." He then started the clips in a loop, same as the previous night.
Donna agreed by nodding her head and sat down. She looked as though she had been crying, rather than being furious as Will had anticipated.
The video was started, and Will was watching Donna more than paying attention to the TV. He had seen these shots several times, what he wanted to see now, and was intently interested in, was her reaction to what she was looking at. Several times she cringed, other clips caused her to break down in tears. These reactions were to both scenes of her own dancing, as well as shots of Chrissy and Will, which made it hard for him to read what her take was on what she was watching.
When the exhibition had shown all of the dancing clips, he hit pause, and looked to Donna, to give her first chance to speak.
She began, "Many things have been exposed, and I guess if there is any chance for us to move forward, we are going to have to get everything out in the open. You cannot imagine how shocked, and then hurt I was when you showed up last night with what by all appearances was a date with another woman."
Will started to say something but Donna put up her hand stopping him, "Please allow me to finish. I need to say several things to you and it will be very difficult for me, but you may change how you want to respond after I'm finished."
He gestured for her to continue, "I hadn't noticed when you came in the club, nor when you started dancing. Jack pointed you out to me and the very first thing I noticed was how much your dancing ability had improved. This confused me because I was unaware that you were seeking help. The two of you looked so good together, and then I realized that you were there with her, not just a woman that you asked to dance, but WITH her." Will kept quiet.
"That revelation rocked me to my core, but I had to know for sure, so I attempted to get you to myself and ask what was going on. When you totally trashed me for interrupting your 'dance planning' and literally told me to go back to my table indicating that the two of you wanted to be alone, I was furious. But after I got to the table, and started ripping on you, Jack mentioned that I wasn't in a very good position to bitch. When I asked him, 'And why not?' he pointed out that I was here with him and the other girls, having lied to you about where I was going, with who, and why.
One of the girls suggested that you had taken Chrissy out to get even with me and that maybe I should pick out some stud to get back at you. Another one of the girls said yeah, that's what I'd do, but I not only didn't want some stud, I didn't even feel much like dancing anymore. I decided to try to get you to at least have the last dance with me but when I approached, the two of you were grinding your prick into her ass, and then she allowed you to feel up her tits, which you did and even played with her nipples."
Donna was getting very emotional now, then said, "As you felt her up, I could see it in her eyes that she would fuck you in a heartbeat. I'll bet anything she was willing to screw you at her place when you took her home."
Will tried to respond, but she wasn't finished yet.
Then she said, "After you left, I felt lost and didn't know what to do. If, when I came home, you were doing her in our bed, I couldn't have handled that. It was time to leave the club, but I was having trouble deciding where to go. I finally decided to come home. Jack was being very accommodating, saying he'd hang as long as I needed."
Will couldn't contain himself any longer and jumped in whether she liked it or not, and said, "I'll just bet he was accommodating as hell, he probably figured that this was his chance to close the deal on your pussy, if he hasn't ALREADY tapped it."
For a moment the sadness left her eyes and anger shot out, "You fucking moron, Jack is gay. That's why I get him to dance with me so often, he's safe, and we've been friends since childhood, so I can't get into trouble with him."
Built up anger was pouring out of Will also, he shot back, "Ok, maybe Jack is gay, but gay or not your actions with him piss me off. All of those other guys, many on that video you just watched are not gay, and every one of those swinging dicks wants to fuck you. The way you dance with them sure as shit sends signals that they might succeed in getting into your panties, assuming that you are still wearing any by the end of the night."
That shot scored, as Donna couldn't respond for several minutes. When she did recover, she side stepped his last statement. He believed that she couldn't produce an answer that justified her behavior. Finally, she responded, "I guess I deserve that."
Then she continued, "That was Cindy on the phone a minute ago. She really ripped into me, calling me out for dragging her into my lies and doing things on the dance floor with other men. She really likes you a lot, told me that you were the best husband a girl could ever hope to have. She felt that you wouldn't succumb to Chrissy's temptations, but even if you did, that it was my own fucking fault."
Donna kept going, "Yesterday I would have never admitted that I had done wrong while dancing, but having Cindy, my best friend, ream me like that and then to watch the video evidence, I have to admit that I have a lot to atone for. Cindy also told me that instead of getting mad at you for showing up with another woman, I should be thankful. I should appreciate it that you went to a hell of a lot of trouble to rub my nose in shit, trying to get me to understand what I've been doing to you. Also, that I must be stupid to think that you showed up at Gleason's with a date by accident."
"Watching that video, I have to admit, that the behavior by you and Chrissy that I was so distressed over, is nearly identical to what I have done, when dancing with other men after getting a little drunk. Last night, I saw the heat exchanged between the two of you, and I wondered if you were going to have sex with her. Now I realize, that you were likely having those same kinds of thoughts about me. I am sorry I've hurt you..." her apology was interrupted.
Just as she was completing her concession, Will's phone was buzzing, indicating he had received a text. The sender was important enough to him that he held up his hand to Donna and said, "I need a minute," and left the room.
When he walked back into the room it seemed as though the temperature dropped 20 degrees. His eyes no longer held promise of forgiveness, but instead were filled with hate fueled by something he must have just found out. Donna could only speculate at what had just taken place, what had caused his shift in demeanor. She silently wondered, "
Oh my God, does he know? What am I going to do?
Will challenged her, "I had thought we had placed all of the cards on the table, but now it seems as though there is more to this. Do you have anything else you need to add, or any statements that you wish to clarify?"
"No, I don't think I want to clarify anything. Who was that on your phone? What was said? Was it Chrissy, trying to turn you farther away from me?" Donna said, while hoping that it wasn't what she was the most afraid of, that someone had revealed her secret to Will.
"No, it wasn't Chrissy," Will said, showing infuriation with her evasiveness, "Seems somebody feels that you haven't told me everything about your adventures. Someone from the club last night sent me a little something. You have one more chance to come clean, is there anything else you need to confess?"
