Melody was in the back room of the store when she heard the bell indicating that someone had come in. She had been away for a couple of days and there was paperwork to get caught up on. Returning her focus to the paperwork, she knew that Emily would come get her if she needed anything.
"Knock, knock" Emily said softly as she entered the back room.
Looking up, Melody took in Emily. Her manner of dress this morning showed off her tanned legs nicely and accentuated her breasts without being too exposed. It was a bit on the conservative side, but really showed just how beautiful Emily is. "What's up?" Melody asked with a smile.
"Sorry to bother you, but Deanna is here and she asked if she could talk to you."
Neatly stacking the papers, she nodded to Emily, "Please, show her back here."
Deanna stepped through the door and Melody observed that Deanna seemed to be a little tense while at the same time wasn't giving off the air of an uptight bitch that she used to emit. Melody got up and walked up to her and gave her a warm hug. Deanna left shortly after Mike came home and Melody hasn't had the opportunity to talk to her since then.
"Please, sit" Melody said, pointing to a love seat that constituted the stores 'break room'. Melody watched as Deanna's skirt rode up her thigh a little as she sat down. She did observe that unlike prior visits, Deanna didn't bother to try and pull the skirt down or cover herself. She also noted that unlike before, Deanna wasn't wearing any nylons.
"How have you been D? Mike, Linda and I have been a little concerned about you."
Deanna looked at her friend, the first person that she felt like she could talk to about really consider a friend. "I'm sorry I ran off like that, Mel."
"It's okay. There's nothing to be sorry for. I'm just concerned, that's all. Perhaps Linda and I went a little too far."
Deanna looked into Melody's eyes, "No, it's not that. Oh god, where do I begin."
Melody knew that there was something that Deanna needed to get off her chest, so she remained silent, letting her drive the conversation and where it went.
"Mel, that was the most wonderful afternoon I think I can ever remember. The love that you and Linda showed me was, well, incredible."
Smiling, feeling a little relief, "I'm glad."
"I never knew, well, I never imagined myself, you know, being involved like that. You know, with another woman."
"And?"
"Don't get me wrong, I still want a man in my bed, but, well, I look forward to being with you again." Deanna suddenly felt flush as she realized she just said she wants sex with her friend again and was suddenly afraid that Melody would think poorly of her.
Melody dispelled her fears quickly, "Oh god am I glad to hear you say that. I want to be with you too. And so does Linda, if you would like. We were so afraid that we scared you off."
Deanna felt her heart beat pick up a little at the thought of being pleasured again in ways she had never imagined herself being and giving it back again.
With a slight frown, "Mike probably thinks I'm an idiot, doesn't he?"
"Mike? No. He's as concerned as I am. He thought that maybe he did something wrong."
Deanna thought about the moment that he stepped out onto the patio naked. Her eyes went straight for his penis and didn't leave for a few moments. Mike's was the first penis that she had seen in a while. The sudden realization that everyone was naked combined with her first experience with another woman sent her brain into overload.
Deanna looked at Melody and smiled, "No, he didn't. He was the perfect gentleman. A nude gentleman, but a perfect gentleman."
"Was his being nude a problem?"
Shaking her head, "No. I went home and lay on the couch for a while. It's funny, I thought how nice it felt to be free of clothes that I took mine off and spent the rest of the evening and the next day without a stitch on."
"Welcome to our world" Melody smiled. "We hardly ever wear anything when we're at home ourselves. It feels so much better, doesn't it?"
"It does. But there's more."
Melody looked at Deanna, wanting her to continue.
"Mel, you and Linda already told me about the, well, the sex that goes on."
"Yes."
"And, frankly, I couldn't get Mike out of my mind. I hope that doesn't make you upset."
Her smile growing bigger, Melody tried to assure her friend that all was well, "Of course not. Did you like what you saw?"
Deanna looked at Melody for a moment before nodding her head.
"How would you feel if I told you that Mike liked what he saw when he saw you?"
Deanna had a slight look of surprise that any man would look at her like that.
"Deanna, we all like being naked. We like looking at each other naked. We enjoy sex with each other and would welcome you into the fold. If you want. It's totally up to you."
Deanna felt like her heart was going to come ripping out through her chest. It had been a long time since she had had a man make love to her and here Melody was offering her the opportunity to join them.
"Linda too?"
"Linda too."
"Do Linda and Mike, you know?"
With a shake of her head, "Yeah, they do. It's only been recently, however. Truth be told, Linda was the first woman I've been with. You're only the second. The idea of getting Mike and his mom together grew out of that." With a chuckle, "It turns out that Linda has a far more adventurous past than any of us knew. You're going to love getting to know her better."
Deanna remained totally silent so Melody continued, "Listen, why don't you come over to the house tonight. I know that Mike wants to talk to you about the business. He apparently is meeting with someone tomorrow that could be a customer and I know he really wants your help."
Tears began to form in the corners of Deanna's eyes and a smile began to form on her lips. In a very short period of time, she realized she went from being an unhappy person in a hostile work environment with few friends to a place where she was appreciated, valued, and wanted.
The two women stood and embraced in a tight hug. The feeling of Deanna's breast crushed against hers felt nice but knew that this wasn't the time or the place to act on her desires. Instead, she rubbed her hand up and down her friends back.
Stepping away, Melody asked, "See you tonight?"
With a bright smile, "I'll be there." Leaning in for a more than friendly kiss on the lips, Deanna parted, "See you then."
Melody watched Deanna walk across the store and out the front door with lightness in her step. She smiled at the thought of the customer from hell being a new friend and a new lover.

Linda, Melody and Mike were sitting around the picnic table later that evening. Melody had brought the other two up to date with the conversation that she had with Deanna earlier in the day.
"So, she wasn't mad or anything?" Mike asked.
Shaking her head, "Nope. I think that being in bed with Linda and I," Deanna said as she nodded to her mother-in-law, "was all that her mind could handle. And then when you stepped out in all your glory, I think it sent her over the edge."
"I'm sorry."
"Don't be. I have a feeling that if she would have allowed herself to let go and not let her fear and inhibitions get her, she would have screwed you right there on the spot. It's been a long time for her since her last lover" Melody said with a smile.
