"Isn't it delicious?" Dana commented, taking a sip of the tea.
"It is. So rich and sweet." Colette replied to her daughter as she took another sip from her cup. "Where did you get it?"
"It's what Anne calls her special blend. She makes it herself and she gave me a big mason jar full of it." Dana replied.
"Well that was nice of her." Colette commented, taking another sip.
Dana and Anne had been on again - off again besties since grade school. And apparently since high school graduation and the requisite festivities were behind them. It was on again for the Summer before they each headed off to college.
Actually, since before Colette's divorce, she'd been spending a lot of time over with Anne. Colette couldn't blame her really. The last few months of the marriage were rocky and loud. Dana, having just turned 18 and being an only child found what refuge she could from their constant bickering.
Now, with the Summer just beginning, it was a relaxing lazy Saturday morning and she was relieved to be spending it with her daughter. She took another sip of the heady brew.
"What's in it that makes it taste so good?" She wondered.
"Well you know Anne." Dana explained "She got into this homeopathic all-natural food is medicine kick and as usual went full on academic about it. The tea blend is kind of her secret sauce. She introduced me to it and I knew right away that you'd love it as well."
"That's so thoughtful." Colette mused. "I'll admit that I've had doubts about that girl through the years. She's always been a bit of an odd duck."
"She's coming over later. I hope you don't mind..." Dana stated.
"Oh? What are the two of you up to?" Colette asked.
"Just hanging out. Maybe watch some movies." Dana said.
"Well, I've got groceries to get, and some other chores that need tending to. I'm not sure when I'll be back, but help yourself." Colette suggested.
"Thanks Mom. You're the best." Dana replied.
Colette set the grocery bags down on the kitchen counter. Anne's car was in the driveway and she figured they were in Dana's room watching Netflix. She figured she'd check in on them and see if they wanted any snacks, but as she approached Dana's bedroom door she hear the moan. It was Dana's voice, low and feral. There was only one reason a woman moaned like that.
And she couldn't help it, but in her mind's eye she was imagining what must be happening on the other side of the door. She would never have suspected, but now that she could hear them, she had to admit that she was profoundly aroused in a way that totally took her by surprise.
Dana was a very pretty girl. A long wavy redhead with blue eyes and fair skin, and a varsity cheerleader's body she was in some ways a younger version of Colette, although perhaps a bit more fulsome physically. She'd certainly had no trouble dating when she wanted to.
On the other hand, Anne was kind of a sparse tomboy, with a slender build and medium straight brown hair parted in the middle that bracketed her face. Not that she had a bad figure, or wasn't cute, but she didn't do much to showcase herself. So, Colette was a little surprised that Dana was that attracted to her, but there wasn't much to dispute based on what she was hearing coming from the bedroom.
In fact, when the groceries were away, Colette snuck into her own room and grabbed her vibrator from the nightstand. A few minutes later, she had a surprisingly strong orgasm that really served to take the edge off.
"I um... heard you and Dana today." She tried to sound casual as they ate dinner.
"Mom!" Dana blurted out, blushing.
"I thought you liked boys?" Colette continued.
"I... they're alright." Dana admitted. "When you and Dad were arguing all the time. I don't know. It just struck me funny. You know, the way guys can be..."
"Dana!" Colette blurted out, ashamed.
"Anne was just there for me, and one day she brought it up, and ever since then..." Dana trailed off.
"Oh." Was all Colette could manage.
"Can I say something, Mom?" Dana asked.
"Sure, honey." Colette sounded unsure.
"It's hot, Mom. Way hotter than it was with any guy." Dana admitted.
