Chapter 11
Jenn stood in front of her mirror, looking herself over in what had become the third outfit she'd tried on that evening. Her nervousness for what the night might hold had made her indecisive. In the end she decided to go for a very casual yet somewhat enticing look, with her jeans hugging her figure nicely, showcasing her feminine curves while a bit of cleavage was displayed by her black spaghetti strapped top.
Satisfied with her mode of dress she turned to more pressing matters: her nerves. She always kept a bottle of rye handy at her desk, just in case there was need for a drink, and it was looking to be one of those times. With that bottle in hand she headed for the kitchen, where she opened up a cabinet, slammed a shot glass down on the counter and promptly filled it to the brim. She winced at the hot burn of liquor in her throat, then capped the bottle and promptly left.

The club was a dark, roomy place with plenty of seating arrangements at tables and in booths. There was a vast dance floor and the music was pumping, but with the exception of the DJ and bar staff there was only a handful of people there. A pair of blonde haired twins were dancing, while everyone else rather soberly hung off to the side. Such was the scene at the start of a Monday evening.
"Ah, back so soon, eh," the bartender said to Diana. She nodded and then shrugged with a smile, as if to say, 'so what if I am?' "Going to have all your girlfriends over again?" he asked.
"No... just here to meet up with an old friend."
"Oh, I see. Well they're welcome here any time. So what can I get you? Rum and coke?"
"You got it."
"Right. I'll start a tab."
From her vantage point Diana could see Jenn arriving. While the bartender prepared her drink she calmly watched as she started to wander the perimeter of the club, glancing around for any sign of her. When finally Jenn neared the bar the ever shifting lighting turned red, making the same-coloured material of Diana's dress light up like a beacon. Jenn caught sight of her then, and could be seen smiling as she closed the remaining distance between them.
"Hiii, Jenn!" Diana stepped forward and offered a huge hug that crushed their bosoms together. "Thanks for coming out. You look great."
Jenn wrapped her arms around her, and couldn't help but notice the sweet floral scent she wore. Already she felt a rush of excitement for the blonde haired beauty. She was tongue-tied, simply staring into Diana's green eyes with a dreamy grin on her lips as she held her slender torso. "Thanks... uh, you do too."
"Did... you miss me...?"
"Mm, yeah, I guess," Jenn said, her modesty returning as she dropped her arms to her side. "Uhm... what are you drinking there?"
"Rum and coke."
"Cool, I'll have one also."
Diana turned to the bartender and smoothly gestured at her glass. He began to prepare another drink for them.
"We can sit over there," Diana said as she pointed to one of the private booths. "It's the furthest from the speakers."
Jenn grabbed her drink. "Sure thing."
After making their way over to that booth Diana stopped and tapped her hand on the surface of the U-shaped leather couch. Usually her entire group would squeeze into that space, but tonight it was just the two of them. Jenn took her cue and hopped inside, settling herself right at at the back, where Diana herself had sat only the previous Friday night. Diana followed her in and took her place beside her, close enough that their thighs touched and their elbows bumped.
Jenn didn't mind that close proximity at all. She figured she'd get the obligatory catch-up conversation rolling: "So Diana, what led you to move out west?"
"Oh well, you know... Finished high school, didn't know what to do with myself for a year or two. My adoptive parents told me I needed to go post-secondary or get something else happening, so I just moved instead."
"Oh. So... did you get something else happening, then? Or are you going to school here?"
"No, not even. I've just started uh, you know, buying stocks and investing and other boring shit like that. It's pretty bland but I seem to have a knack for it. My money is just making itself now."
"Wow, that's so cool!"
"Yeah, haha, I know. That doesn't mean I have much, yet, but if I keep it up I don't see myself having to work at all. Maybe I'll show you how it works sometime. So Jenn, how's life been for you, hmm? Tell me about things starting right where we left off, a few years ago."
"Okay, well, we moved here. I started going to a different high school... I dunno. It's a boring, typical story. I'm studying psychology now at the university and, as you know, waiting tables. I wasn't as clever as you, to think of some money making genius plan..."
Diana nodded. "Okay, very nice. Any boyfriends?"
"No, not really. I had one late in high school, but it was lame. Maybe a fling here or there since then, but you know, nothing's stuck. I don't think boys are for me. Or men, for that matter."
"Girls instead, then?"
Jenn shook her head, "no, not them either."
Diana nodded, cocking an eyebrow and grinning slyly as she took a sip of her drink.
"How about you, hmm? Any boyfriends for Diana Dennis?"
"Hah," she said. "What do you think?"
"Oh, I dunno... there's probably guys out there who wouldn't mind a girl, um..."
"A girl whose dick is bigger than theirs?" Diana gave an unsuitably sweet giggle, which really broke the ice. "Yeah, I suppose, but that doesn't sound like my kind of scene."
"Uh-huh, I guess not. So... you're single then?"
"Um... yeah," Diana said with a hint of hesitation, "I am."
This time it was Jenn whose eyebrow raised. "Right... Okay, so, which one of those girls you brought to my work are you having sex with?"
Diana's jaw dropped. "Jenn! ...None of them. I am 'having sex' with none of them," she said, making quotation gestures in the air with her fingers.
Jenn nodded slowly, displaying her disbelief with a little chuckle.
"Okay, but there might be a little fooling around, sometimes."
"Yeah, I kind of figured so. Got the vibe. I mean, they're all gorgeous, so..."
Diana sipped her drink thoughtfully. "Does that bother you?"
Jenn looked at her, surprised by the sincere direction their conversation was taking. "Why should that bother me?" She, with her private fantasies of the two of them being together just like they once were as young girls, was indeed bothered by it. But she dared not admit it.
Diana put down her drink and looked Jenn square in the eyes. "I don't know. All I can say is... Sitting here with you, like we are right now, is bringing back certain old feelings. Do you know what I mean?"
Jenn hesitated, then nodded with just the slightest tip of her head.
Diana leaned in close and lightly placed a lingering kiss on her lips. Jenn froze for a moment, but was soon to release a joyful breath. She returned that kiss with sweet movements of her lips, her hand coming up to squeeze Diana's thigh.
Their lips separated. Jenn was blushing hard, her eyes turned glassy by the sudden rush of emotions. The mood between them had completely changed.
"Sometimes... the more things change, the more they stay the same," Diana said.
Jenn just nodded, her heart pounding with desire for the beautiful blonde from her past. She leaned in and offered a second kiss, and when it was accepted she didn't hold back. The yearning she'd felt for all those years was expressed with the deepest sincerity as her tongue searched for and found Diana's own, her hands trailing up her sides to pull her closer.
Diana's kiss was the same as it had been when their relationship began at fourteen, as was her scent and the feel of her breath, but by the way Jenn's ample bosom mashed against Diana's even more blessed pair there was no denying that they'd matured a great deal since then. On a lustful impulse Jenn curiously brought a hand down, brushing it against Diana's lap in a manner that seemed innocent enough, though her intention was to determine if Diana had also grown anywhere else...
"Mmh," Diana murmured as she cupped Jenn's cheek. She gently pushed her away as she modestly squeezed her thighs together. "Not here," she said. This time it was she whose cheeks started to flush. "The staff knows me... I don't want to make a scene." The cleave of her breasts was rising and falling beneath her red dress, evidencing her excitement.
Jenn nodded, pulling that hand away from Diana's lap with a hint of shame. "I'm sorry... I just-"
Diana placed a finger over her lips, silencing her. "Not another word about that... until we get to my place. Come on."
