'It's here! Jasmine said loudly, kicking shut the door and striding through to the kitchen to put the box down on the table. There was the sound of feet padding on carpet, and a few moments later, the curly brown hair and round, thick glasses of Jasmine's roommate Harriet popped out from the hallway. She grinned, and quickly came over to retrieve the parcel from the table. It was a quiet, wintery day, but despite the cold, dreary weather outside the thick glass windows of their joint living room, kitchen and dining area, Harriet wore a generous tank top and simple track pants. If she had a bra on, Jasmine couldn't see it, but she doubted that she did - despite the other girl's mousey, nerdy looks, she was in private quite open and carefree with almost everything about herself. Her two round, youthful mounds bounced about as she stepped perkily up to take her new arrival in her hands, and Jasmine could see the round of her bubble-butt clearly silhouetted against the light grey through the glass background.
'What is it?' Jasmine asked, only half curious and already only half listening for an answer as she moved around to the kitchen to pour herself a drink.
'Oh, nothing special,' Harriet said in reply, and Jasmine could immediately tell that she was smiling through the words.
'Oh? Nothing special?' Jasmine asked, her head in the fridge as she looked first at the milk, then at the bottle of half-finished orange juice, trying to decide which she wanted more. The milk indicated to her her need for a coffee, but the orange juice's flavour was just the thing to inject some character into this rainy, overcast day. Outside, the rain picked up, and the girls heard it begin to come down louder on the roof above them. Tucking a strand of straight black hair over her ear, Jasmine bit her round red lip and bent over. Despite the fact that she knew she bent like she was trying to be flirtatious, she couldn't help it, and at least when it was just Harriet at home it didn't matter anyway. She stuck her butt out, leaned over and gazed at the selection, eventually choosing the juice.
At the table, Harriet was opening her box. Jasmine didn't look at her again until she had poured her glass and replaced the bottle in the fridge, and when she had, her roommate was reaching inside the brown container and lifting something out. At first, Jasmine thought it was a vase, or perhaps a flute of some kind like those for champagne, but then as Harriet turned it over in her hands, her wide eyes even wider through her thick glasses, Jasmine saw the bulbous tip and gently curving shape and recognised it for what it was.
'Ew, Harriet, you're disgusting.' She said, frowning as she sipped her cold orange juice. 'I can't believe you couldn't open that in your room or something.' She made to move past Harriet, who snorted but said nothing in response. Jasmine took one more look at the other girl over her shoulder as she passed her - she was still standing there, admiring the glass device, her neck slightly angled as she leaned her head a little closer, as if trying to see something deep inside the curved glass object.
Jasmine's blue eyes flicked to the item in her hands, and as she looked at it, even she had to admit that it was oddly beautiful, for a dildo. Soft, yet somehow vibrant streaks of every colour snaked through it like rainbow lightning, stemming from the very tip of the bulb at the end and exploding downwards along its length as if they had been frozen in time in that exact moment. A curving, multi-pronged ringlet of twisting green twirled blurrily through the insides and deep in the centre something clear and pure glinted, as if someone had laid a tiny, perfect diamond deep in the middle of the glass shape. Around the outside of the shaft, many round blue rings sat at even distances apart along its length, rings that were almost certainly pleasure ribs designed to push and rub against a woman's insides and excite her nerve endings. As Harriet turned it over in her hands, Jasmine saw tiny sparkles of light glinting at all angles off the brilliant core, and the movement gave the twisting spirals of blue and green a new life, as if simply by moving the device, Harriet had caused some intricate glass machine to begin working in her hands.
Shrugging and mumbling something about her violated privacy, Jasmine left for her room. She put her glass down on her desk and settled in front of her computer, preparing herself to get at least
something
worthwhile done on this dreary, indoors afternoon. She settled into some documents and began typing, but her mind was distracted, and her orange juice no longer carried the warming tang she had poured it to provide. Despite herself, her mind kept slipping sneakily back to the image of the glass dildo in Harriet's hands, remembering how that tiny, edgeless core sparkled and those fingers of green twirled about so easily, seemingly spinning much faster than Harriet had been turning the item. After twenty minutes, Jasmine saved and closed her files and sat back, resigned disappointedly to the knowledge that nothing was going to help her focus on her work today.
