Chapter 2: Eyewitness to a Bang
"This could be more brutal than we want to admit."
Marsha stirred the cream in her coffee once as she nodded at the truth in Holly's words. She shrugged and looked across the table at her best friend as she said, "The price of stupidity."
"That she was," Holly nodded, finishing off her coffee. "What a dumb bitch. Forty year old woman, schoolteacher woman, pops the cherry of a seventeen year old boy and expects him not to tell his mother? Momma goes berserk. What was she thinking?"
"Yeah," Marsha nodded, still thinking, "but no way she could have figured this would be the cost."
"What?" Holly laughed. "You think Momma would have thanked her? Either way she was going to pay."
"True," Marsha nodded again. "What a choice. Have your career destroyed by letting it out she's a child molester or consent. Consent to all takers. Yeah, this could get real brutal.
"We're going why, again?"
"We're Barb's friends, baby," Holly said quietly, glancing at the clock. "She did wrong, but we're her friends. Somebody's going to have to clean up the mess. The aftermath. To get her home. It's supposed to start in about half an hour."
"Maybe we'd better get over there then," Marsha said with another shrug, rising to put her coffee mug in the sink.
"You want to see this?"
Marsha stopped in her tracks as she realized the truth in her heart. She looked at Holly for a moment and then slowly placed the mug on the counter before she quietly said, "Yes."
"You kinky bitch," Holly laughed. "So do I."
The two women laughed hysterically at their own curiosity, snatching their purses and making their way to Holly's car. Two ladies out for an evening's lark but deep in Marsha's soul she wondered. Wondered where it was all heading.
Three months before she'd been such a "good" girl, the happily married woman rapidly approaching fifty. Now she was fifty and she'd had a lover. Not just a lover, a stallion Holly had turned her on to. Three times a week she went to him and let him. Let him do her, do her like a man should. She knew Holly got some now and then but John was her stallion. He made her feel so good, so very good. It was a one man gang bang every time she got into his bed and now she was going to watch a real gang job. Their good friend Barb, stupid Barb, was going to get her brains screwed out and they was going to watch it. Marsha shook her head and realized they were there.
She saw the look Holly gave her as they got out of the car but there wasn't anything to worry about. She wasn't going to try to stop this. Barb had been stupid, she was getting punished. If it would have been her, if it would have been Holly, it didn't matter. You don't go after a kid and expect not to pay. Marsha glanced at the driveway as they walked up the steps and then down the street. Apparently several were more than happy to benefit.
The form of a woman appeared in front of them at the door. Holly and Marsha stopped and looked into the eyes of a wronged mother.
"You're the ones here to get her home or....."
"Her helpers," Holly said with a nod.
The woman stared blankly at them and then turned away without another word. Holly and Marsha followed her through the house to a family room in the back. At least a dozen men and women stood in small groups, enjoying a drink as the stereo returned to the Eighties. The woman strode to the middle of the room, turned slowly once to look at all in attendance and then motioned for the stereo to be turned off.
"The party will now begin," she announced. "As you know, you are here of your own free will. You may leave at any time. While you are here, there are rules.
"Your order of pleasure will be drawn by lot, Bruno will pass among you with a hat. Draw a number, that number is your place in line," and a hulking form began to circulate among the crowd. From the corner of her eye, Marsha thought she saw Holly start to reach for a number and then suddenly stop but she wasn't sure. The words of the hostess held her too engrossed.
"While you are engaged in your pleasure, there will be no harm inflicted on your party favor. You will not strike, cut, burn or any other deviant act. Bruno will insure you will behave, just as I have insured your favor is here for your pleasure."
With that the woman looked to her left and tilted her head. Holly and Marsha looked, seeing Barb make her way into the room. She stared blankly at her friends and nodded just once before she glanced around the room. There was no emotion on Barb's face as she surveyed those who would soon enjoy her.
"You are here of your own free will?" the woman asked and Barb nodded.
"You are consenting?" and Barb nodded again.
"With this all things of the past are forgotten, is that our understanding?" and again Barb nodded.
"Strip," came the woman's order.
A shudder of realization went through Marsha's body as Barb began to unbutton her denim shirt. She was going to watch a sex act. The blouse was open and dropping, a simple white bra. Not just a sex act, a gang bang. The breasts were bare, Barb not big but not embarrassed either. Any and everybody was going to bang this stupid bitch. Most women cover their breasts with their hands but Barb was stripping off her jeans. Marsha had never watched sex, not even on a video. Little white panties.
"Number One, please."
"I'll pass."
Marsha knew that voice. She snapped her head to the right and stared at John. She hadn't seen him, she had no idea he'd be in on something like this.
