The unwanted visitor turned out to be a next-door neighbour. "Hi, Debbie," said Sarah with a friendly smile. "I just got back from my unexpected stay at my sister's." After a few moments hesitation, she stepped back to allow her to come in. The screen door closed behind her, and Sarah closed the door to keep prying eyes out.
"Hi, Sarah. You look so much better than I expected, given what you've been through these past few days." She hugged her briefly, stood back and tried to peer over her shoulder. Debbie was a solidly built 5 foot 8, with curly hair that had once been the fabled fiery red of the Celtic, but was now mostly gray. Sarah's nearly six foot frame was being used to its full advantage for blocking sight into the house. "So, where's that man you brought back with you? Is he the Roger Matheson you were with in those videos taken in the park last night?"
"Oh, he ran out the back door and hopped the fence when my back was turned," Sarah replied airily. Debbie just rolled her eyes and giggled.
"Or maybe he's upstairs waiting for me to leave so you can go up there and have your way with him. Again." Sarah tried to look shocked and indignant, more for show than anything else, since she knew she was thoroughly busted. Those bright blue eyes of Debbie's missed little and could read her just as well as John's, especially when sex was involved.
"A girl should be able to have some quality time alone with her man before her past catches up to her," she replied. "Why don't you come back in a couple of hours?" Then she paused and looked again. Sarah suddenly twigged on to how the shadows of Debbie's areolas were visible under her tight white T-shirt; there was clearly no bra on under there. Her eyes narrowed suspiciously. "You little minx! You came over here to try him out, didn't you?" she accused, tracing the outline of an areola under an index finger, causing the nipple to snap to attention and Debbie's gaze to lose focus briefly. "Since I'm not going to get rid of you," she whispered, her lips just brushing those of Debbie, while teasing the other nipple, "maybe I should just ruin you and leave your unconscious body snoring on the couch while I take him upstairs and ruin him." Debbie, of course, also knew how to fight dirty.
"How do you think I'd have done it?" she whispered back, putting her mouth to Sarah's left breast and blowing heat and munching delicately on her nipple through her T-shirt and bra, while a hand had insinuated itself between Sarah's legs and fingers were probing and squeezing through the fabric of her shorts. By this time, the object of Debbie's attentions was glowing brightly and was barely able to stand upright. "I was going to ruin you, while he watched, and then I was going to rip his clothes off, pull him down onto my hot, naked body and have him fuck my brains out with you lying next to me unable to do anything but watch." By now, Debbie had lifted Sarah's shirt up and was softly kissing and licking her belly, while Sarah was stroking Debbie's hair and running her fingers gently along her earlobes.
"I missed you, Debbie," Sarah said hoarsely, looking down at her.
"And I missed you so much," she replied, looking up at her. "I am so glad that you're back." They were exactly two seconds from totally forgetting about Roger and going at each other full throttle, when a fart exploded from the kitchen, followed by a "Goddammit!" in a masculine voice.
"All right Roger, come out and meet Debbie," Sarah sighed as her neighbour reluctantly pushed past into the living room. The hard little nubs of her nipples under her T-shirt were quite visible. "I think she's glad to meet you," she added wickedly, compounding the problem by squeezing her ass.
"I'll open the window here first," he replied. They could see him with his back to them through the hole in the wall as he stood up and opened the window as quickly as he could. "Sorry," he added as he was doing so. "My damned guts keep causing me problems." Mission accomplished, he hurried through the doorway, took two steps towards them and stopped dead in his tracks. Sarah watched in astonishment as both he and Debbie suddenly went totally white, as if they were seeing ghosts. "Debbie ... Malloran?" he choked out.
"Roger? It really is you!" she half sobbed. "I thought I'd recognized you from the videos, but had to be sure!" Without seeming to have moved, they were somehow in each other's arms crushing the breath out of each other and crying uncontrollably, for the moment oblivious to Sarah's presence. She realized that she was standing with her mouth open in total shock and closed it abruptly.
"I take it that you know each other?" she asked ironically. This revelation, shocking as it was, seemingly made her life one hell of a lot easier. Roger would never know that the reason she was smiling like the Cheshire Cat as they were walking was because she was running through various scenarios in which she would broach the subject of her relationship with Debbie. John had been surprisingly easygoing about it, worrying more about making her jealous when he was interacting with her during their threesomes, but the encounters were always so fluid (and generated so much fluid, she added with a mental smirk), that his worries had been quickly laid (as he had been, repeatedly) to rest. Roger had been a wild card because, as much as she loved him, she still had little idea of who he was, what his preferences were, and so on. As the others reluctantly separated, wiping away each other's tears and raiding a handy tissue box, they suddenly remembered where they were and looked guilty.
"It's a long story," said Roger, purging his nose loudly, then looked at the tissue with disgust."There's a trash can in the powder room, where you can wash your hands," Sarah replied. "I'll make some coffee. I think we all have lots to talk about." The two of them went into the small room and soon the sounds of giggling and running water were audible. Strangely enough, despite the security she felt in her relationships with both of them, Sarah still felt a small twinge of jealousy that they seemed to know each other so well. It would be an interesting story, she thought as she walked into the kitchen, got a few whiffs of the air, quickly retrieved a can of air freshener from under the sink and used it liberally. "Roger! You stank up the kitchen!" she shouted, shoving his backpack out of the way to be in front of the back door. Both Debbie and the culprit roared with laughter as they left the powder room and made it to the living room as Sarah set up the coffee maker with a bit more noise than necessary.
"Sorry Sarah," said Debbie as she regained her composure somewhat. "You have no idea how many times I've yelled that at him!" They had parked themselves at opposite ends of the three-seat couch that was along the outside wall of the room, and Sarah plunked herself on the loveseat that formed the boundary between the living and dining rooms. Both were of black leather and had seen lots of use over the years, but were still in good shape.
"So," said Roger, a little awkwardly, as Debbie scooted a little closer, "Debbie and I knew each other some forty-odd years ago in high school in London."
"Knew each other?" said Debbie, scooting a little closer. Roger looked worried and looked to Sarah for guidance. She merely smirked at his discomfort. "In Grade 13, we were two of the top five brains in our class. Unlike me, Roger was always friendly and approachable and willing to help people out, mostly in math."
"She was one of the popular crowd," Roger clarified, "and super-hot. Nobody will know how much cum got wanked out because of her, but it was lots." By now, Debbie had cuddled up to him and was running a hand through what was left of his mostly gray hair. "She also had a reputation as a bit of a bitch, but that was mostly because she didn't suffer fools gladly, and many of the in crowd were airheads." He finally surrendered and put an arm around her so she could cuddle closer.
"We were academic rivals, but unlike many of the octopus-like teenaged males there, he was always a gentleman, and when he walked into the library that one winter afternoon during what turned out to be a spare period for both of us and saw me stressing out over math homework just before a test, he stopped and walked me through it. Then he just smiled at me and wandered off to sit at another table to do his work. No strings attached."
"I didn't think much of it at the time," Roger continued the story. "I had no ulterior motive for helping her. I figured that she was way above my league and helped because that's what I did." Sarah was noticing how comfortable they were with each other, even after all this time, as she got up to respond to the coffee maker's mechanical warble indicating that it was ready. They got up too and followed her into the kitchen, where Sarah poured the brew into three blue mugs (Roger noticed that they were the same blue as in her aura). "Let's go sit outside," he said, shifting his backpack out of the way so that he could open the door onto the deck.
The back door opened into the middle of the deck, which was about 20 by 20 feet, and had a smallish barbecue on the right side. A tall hedge of cedar trees offered both privacy and shade from the sun on the south side of the deck, which was on their left. It was on this side that there were a two-seat and a single-seat metal frame chair with removable padded seats and backs placed around a circular, glass-topped table with an umbrella, currently closed. The chair cushions and umbrella had red, yellow, and blue stripes on them, Roger noted, as Sarah beat him to the single seat chair. Debbie patted the seat next to her and Roger sat, grumping slightly.
"Anyway," Debbie continued as they sipped their coffee, "I was so used to boys trying all the tricks in the book to get me to go out with them that Roger's non-reaction bruised my ego a bit." Roger smirked and she glowered at him. "So there he was, working away and totally ignoring me while other boys were ogling me," she paused to give a now-grinning Roger an elbow to the gut, nearly causing him to spill his coffee, "so after about ten minutes I got up, marched over to him and told him that we were going to see a movie that Friday night."
"I was thunderstruck," wheezed Roger, trying to get his breath back. "I was totally unaware of the emotional turmoil I'd caused." Sarah snickered, ignoring Debbie's hostile stare. "This was Wednesday, so by the time Friday had rolled around, I was really nervous, afraid I'd do something stupid to screw it up. I managed to pick her up at her home, drive downtown and park without getting into a crash, mostly by the grace of whatever unfortunate guardian angel was looking out for me that day. So I did my best to be the perfect gentleman."
"He wouldn't even touch me until I grabbed his hand - well, his mitten - and he had this look of a terrified rabbit, even though he was doing his best to be cool." Roger blushed a bit and hastily sipped his coffee. "The move was Blazing Saddles, and neither of us had laughed so hard in our lives."
