Piper had always been around the house since we moved to the neighborhood. She was my daughter's age and they almost immediately became friends, having sleepovers and doing homework together. She never needed to knock to come in the house and it was never a surprise to find the two of them on the couch watching movies in the evenings or outside in the yard together during the summer. Once they both graduated my daughter, Julie, decided to go to the state college a couple of hours away but Piper remained to go to the local college, saving money by staying at home. She would still come round from time to time and I appreciated the company, my marriage had long since ended and apart from Julie's occasional visits back home I didn't have much in the way of social interaction. I worked from home and despite efforts made by the neighbors my age to make friends; I never had much in common with them and preferred to live vicariously through the college gossip from Julie and Piper.
My own college life had been cut short by my pregnancy and I dropped out at the age of 20 before finishing my degree part time as Julie was a teenager. She was an only child and we were very close, especially after her father left us, with little attempt to maintain a relationship with his daughter. While Julie only opened up to me as a nineteen-year-old daughter would, Piper was completely transparent, detailing almost every aspect of college life for me, over some leftovers or a glass of wine. She had moved beyond being my daughter's friend to being my friend too. Looking back on it I should have been aware of what was happening, of how Piper slowly became more dependent on my company and how she would give me a look sometimes that suggested there were other feelings simmering.
Perhaps I was kidding myself too, that our ever-lengthening chats were platonic banter to pass the time. I probably lied to myself that I was merely a woman shy of forty envying the beauty of a younger girl every time I took a second glance at her figure or her soft skin. The pang I felt when she mentioned someone she was interested in could only have been a yearning for my own youth not the attentions of my daughter's best friend.
At least that was what I told myself until one Friday evening I heard her familiar knock at the kitchen door and I went to open it.
"Hi Miss Olsen, I saw the light was still on, I'm a little tipsy and didn't want to go home just yet." It made me laugh she still called me that even though I had tried in vain to get her to call me by my first name, old habits die hard I supposed. She was a very pretty girl, slim and athletic, her hair always changed color and style and this night it was shoulder length auburn. She could look older and brooding when she forgot to smile but once she did, she looked like the warmest person you could meet, innocent and carefree.
"Hi Piper, what did you get up to tonight? Do you need some water?" I was half way through a bottle of wine myself but it didn't look like she needed any more booze.
"Sure, I went to a party, it was fun but things got kinda weird towards the end." I brought her the water and we sat on opposite sides of the kitchen island.
"Oh yeah? How so?" I was anticipating more boy trouble; it seemed she always had a revolving door of admirers to juggle.
"Well Ashley...from school, I made out with her." This was a bit of a surprise but I hid it, I didn't want her to feel any stranger about the situation.
"That's just college, I'm sure these days it's pretty normal for those things to happen."
"Did it ever happen to you?" I laughed.
"You better not tell Julie a word of this but yes, I made out with my roommate's older sister once in college, it was no big deal really." I had done more than make out with her but I wasn't going to tell Piper that; the pang for those times when I felt like I could do anything returned. There was an awkward pause between us as Piper looked at her glass of water.
"Ashley's such a phony anyway, she's always hitting on all the other girls and says she only likes women but I don't know anyone who has done more than kiss her, I think it's all for attention." She downed the rest of the water. "Did you enjoy it? You know did you ever want to do more with this girl you mentioned?" I wasn't sure that I was enjoying where this was going so I absent-mindedly picked the glass up and walked to the fridge to refill it.
"Lisa was her name...sure I enjoyed it but we kept it friendly," a lie. The memory of the weekend spent with her, exploring ourselves made my stomach knot. I became aware of Piper getting up and following behind me as I poured the water. I turned with the glass in my hand and met her green eyes, a foot away from mine, usually sparkling with glee but now staring at me with intent.
"I wanted to do more tonight but I don't think Ashley was the right person." She took the glass of water and set it down on the counter.
"Well then maybe just wait for the right..." I was cut off as Piper leaned in to kiss me, I recoiled, leaning back to avoid her lips and gently pushing her back. "No, Piper, what are you doing?"
"I don't want Ashley..." She came again at me, she was almost my height but was more petite, her hands reached out this time, to touch my cheek and pull me in; I fended them off as best I could, not wanting to get too physical.
"Piper, this isn't a good idea, you've had too much to drink, just think about things..." She held my face stronger this time, looking into my eyes.
"I've been thinking about things for a long time...please..." She kissed my lips and this time I didn't try to move out of the way, hoping that one kiss would help her come to her senses. As our lips touched the back of my mind quietly let an inkling of control fall, the taste of her mouth, the smell of her perfume hitting my senses.
"Please Piper...I'm Julie's mom...we can't do this." My voice sounded suddenly weak, my heart starting to beat faster; my body needing an extra breath now.
"Nobody needs to find out...just tonight." She kissed me again and I let her hold it for an extra second, my eyes closing briefly, my body responding despite my sensibilities screaming at me to stop. Her hand ran down my body and slipped between my thighs, moving upwards toward my crotch. I jerked and pushed it away but she didn't stop, pressing her body closer to mine, her hand going back to my thighs.
"Please don't do this..." It was an honest plea to stop before we did something we regretted, but it was lost on her.
"Just tonight...I promise." We kissed again and this time our tongues met, I whimpered with the feeling, my body now reminding me that I hadn't had any intimate contact for over a year. I moved to push away her insistent hand but I failed to get to it before it pressed against my mound, making me gasp as its tenderness resonated through my body, signaling the end of my protests. Piper stopped to look at my face, smiling slightly as she realized as well that I had given in.
What followed was a race to bring each other to an orgasm. Our mouths locked and our tongues dove into each other's mouths, my hands now on her body as well, groping and squeezing everything, pressing against her crotch through her jeans. We broke for air and to shed clothing in intervals, my skirt went, her top was pulled over her head and discarded, my blouse was unbuttoned and her jeans were pushed down to her ankles. We sank to our knees on the cold kitchen floor tiles, not having the patience to move to a bed or a couch. We opted out of removing our bras, simply pulling the straps over our shoulders exposing our breasts and hard nipples for the other's mouth. We paused for a second to take in our bodies, my large bosom with thick nipples, her smaller upturned breasts with aching pink points. It was only a momentary respite before our mouths and hands returned to each other.
We took turns suckling on each other, our hands now finding each other's clit, soft pleas urging each other on. Our fingers slid into each other, making us moan in tandem panting between kisses, our movement more feverish with the increase in sensation. We both came quickly and violently, our legs seizing up and clamping together; our free hands, mine in her hair and hers on my breast, clenched and pulled us tighter together as we cried out. We shuddered through the aftermath, holding each other long after it went, knowing when we finally released we would have to face the guilt.
And the guilt did come, like a bullet to the heart. We let go and stood up, putting our clothes back on while avoiding the other's eyes. It took concentration to not cry immediately, I cleared my throat to disguise the oncoming tears.
"I think you better go Piper..." I let myself glance at her once and saw that her tears had already started as she stared at the ground, making her way out the door. The second it was closed behind her the dams broke and I sobbed. I cried for many things, for the betrayal to my daughter, for my inability to stop what I felt was wrong. Deep down I knew that the most upsetting thing was that I had just experienced a passion that had been absent in my life for almost twenty years and that I couldn't continue it.
