She encounters Laura, an older woman at a client's office, who pings highly on Katrina's gaydar. If Laura has gay tendencies, she's deep in her closet. After Laura learns of her husband's intent to divorce her, she finds shelter in Katrina's apartment and comfort in Katrina's arms. NOTE: Please see the disclaimer, below. ================================================================================ Part I Katrina stepped from her shower, grabbed a towel and dried herself. She dressed in a gray skirt and a white blouse; then she used a dryer on her shoulder- length, copper-colored hair. Looking in the mirror she applied a thin line of eyeliner and then some clear lip gloss. She slipped into a gray jacket that matched her skirt and headed toward the front door of her apartment. Katrina picked up her laptop and handbag, slung them over her shoulder and headed for the parking lot. She unlocked the trunk and set her laptop case beside several large cartons, slammed down the trunk and started her motor. Her drive took her downtown. She parked in the parking structure recommended by her client. Katrina opened her trunk and withdrew a collapsible hand truck. Onto it she stacked the cartons; then she slung her laptop over her shoulder and wheeled the truck to the elevators and to the street. Katrina reviewed a sheet with directions. It was about a three block walk to her appointment. She pushed the hand truck into the elevator and selected the fourteenth floor. The elevator doors opened and she pushed the truck through a doorway and stopped before a reception desk. A pleasant-looking, middle-aged woman greeted her. "May I help you?" "My name is Katrina Joy," she replied. "I have an appointment with Kevin McNichols." "I'll let him know you're here." She picked up a telephone and punched in an extension. "Kevin? Katrina Joy to see you." She set down the phone. "He'll be right out, Katrina." "Call me Trina." "Hi, Trina -- I'm Laura." A young man greeted her. "I'm Kevin," he said. "You must be Trina." "Pleased to meet you in person," Katrina replied. "We've had a number of phone conversations." "Come with me," he said and led Katrina to a conference room. "We set this up as a classroom per your specifications. We have a projector and screen, and PCs for each attendee." He handed her photocopied sheets. "This is the class roster. You'll be here all this week?" "Yes," she replied, "and two days next week. We'll spend the first three days with the front-line users, Thursday and Friday with the back office and Monday and Tuesday of next week training your technology and operations areas." "We've made attendance mandatory," Kevin said, "so make sure you get signatures." "Understood. We have two sessions, one from nine to noon and the other twelve- thirty to three-thirty. After that we have a one-hour hands-on lab. That leaves a half-hour for lunch." "That should be fine," Kevin replied. As for logistics -- the restrooms are down the corridor. We close the main door at five. If you find yourself leaving after the main door is closed, there's another exit in the break room. That one is never locked from the inside, but you need a pass code to open it from the outside. Remember that if you leave via that door, you might not be able to get back in." Katrina nodded in comprehension. "Do you require anything else?" "I'd like an easel with flip-sheets." "We can accommodate that. Come with me." Kevin led her back to the reception desk. "Laura," he said, "Trina here is conducting training on our new order tracking system." He turned to Katrina. "What did you say you needed?" "An easel with flip sheets." "I'll locate one for you," Laura replied. "If there's anything else you need, Laura will take care of you. Good luck with your students." Katrina strolled to the reception area. Laura regarded her from behind her desk. "Do you need something, Trina?" she asked. "Oh, no, Laura. I was wondering where I could find some lunch." "There's a cafe in the lobby," Laura replied. "It's cafeteria-style. I was going down there myself. Would you like me to walk with you?" "If it's no trouble," Katrina replied. "None at all. Let me call my backup." She picked up the phone and punched in an extension. "Heidi? It's Laura. Can you cover while I go to lunch? Thanks." She set down the handset. "She'll be right out." Katrina regarded a framed photograph on Laura's desk. "Is this your family?" she asked. "Yes -- that's my husband Rob and my daughter Monica ... and her fiancé, Jeff." "She's a beautiful young lady," Katrina remarked. A young Black woman stepped behind Laura's desk. "Follow me, Trina," Laura said. Katrina sized up Laura. She appeared to be in her mid thirties. She wore a skirt that didn't quite reach her knees and Katrina thought her legs looked trim. Nichole's build was medium, and she had bi-color hair: lightened layers on top and brunette underneath. They reached the cafe and picked up trays. Katrina selected a sandwich, chips and soda and carried her tray to the cashier. Then she found a vacant table and sat. Laura sat across from her. "How's the training going?" Laura asked. "It's going well. It's a sharp group ... at least today's group is sharp. They ask the right questions. Sometimes I give these and I'm looking out over a sea of glassy stares." She sipped her soda. "I'll tell you, Laura -- you don't look old enough to have a daughter who's engaged." "I started early," she replied. "I was twenty when I had Monica." "How old are you, now?" Katrina asked, "if I may ask." "How old are you?" Laura replied, "if I may ask." "Turnabout's fair play. I'm twenty-eight." "I remember being twenty-eight. I had an eight-year-old daughter to care for. I'm forty-one, Trina." "You look like you're in your thirties -- thirty-five, tops." "I take care of myself." Laura finished the salad she had selected for her lunch. "I do wonder what it would have been like to be twenty-eight and childless. I don't suppose you have children, Trina?" "No. I'm not even married. I spend half my days living out of suitcases. It's a rare treat for me to have a client in the same city. A child and a husband would tie me down too much." "A child and a husband is like having two children," Laura replied. "Monica is an only child?" Laura nodded. "I had complications delivering her, and was unable to have any others. Rob and I considered adopting an infant from Asia but we never could afford it." "Maybe Monica will bless you with grandchildren." "They say," Laura replied, "that grandchildren are a parent's reward for not strangling her teen. I believe it." She finished the salad she had selected for her lunch. "Ready to go back up?" Katrina regarded her watch. "It looks like I have time for a quick trip to the ladies' room and then we'll start or afternoon session. It was nice talking to you, Laura." Katrina pressed the button to release the street door. Shortly she heard a rap on her door and she opened it. In stepped a woman approximately Katrina's height, carrying a soft duffel. She had dark brunette hair, styled in a short, rounded bob and she wore jeans and a sweatshirt. "Hi, Trina," she said and regarded her costume. "That's cute. Is it new?" "Not very new." "I guess it has been a while," Jill replied. "Would you like some coffee?" Katrina asked. "Or, shall we just get started?" "Let me whiz and change," Jill replied and carried her duffel into the bathroom Katrina cleared away her dinner setting. Jill emerged wearing a sheer, black baby-doll nightgown that was open in the front and tied at the bodice. "You have gone buff since the last time I saw you," Katrina remarked. "Look at those arms." "Yeah... I've been taking walks. I'm down to a size eight." "You look good. Your legs look especially good." "I've lost some flab and built some muscle," Jill replied. "Because money's so tight I had to cancel my membership at the Club ... quit my personal trainer." "You had a personal trainer?" "Yes... Kyle. He's responsible for how my arms look." She made a slight smile. "He was giving me a little action on the side, too. With the budget shrinking I couldn't afford to pay him at the club and with Kenny home I couldn't pay him with booty. So, he's history. To compensate I've been walking an hour a day, three days a week." "You can fit that in with your job?" Katrina asked. "I walk after dinner. It gets me away from Kenny for an hour. The walking has really helped my legs and butt." "They look terrific, Jill. I've never seen you looking better." "I'm feeling good, too ... except for this." She stroked her belly. "I'm bloated and my stomach pooches out. It's a good thing for me that you don't charge money, Trina." "Are you kidding? I ought to be paying you." "Of course, what are you? You must be size zero, you're so slim. I don't think you have an ounce of excess fat." "I wear size two jeans." "Must be tough." Jill pulled open the front of her gown. "Look at this," she said as she stroked her belly. "I need one of your treatments to get my tummy flattened." "You could do that yourself." "I was going to do it myself," Jill replied. "If you couldn't see me, I was gonna go down to the corner Walgreen's and buy a Fleet enema and take care of it." "You could have this equipment at home." "If Kenny saw this stuff, he'd freak." "I doubt he would." "Oh, he would," Jill replied. "Believe me he would. Besides -- it's not the same without your tender touch." Katrina stepped into the kitchen and began running water. She measured a tablespoon of baking soda and dumped it into the quart measure. Then, she scooped another tablespoon and set it on the counter. Once the water was at the correct temperature she filled the measure, swirling it to dissolve the soda. This she poured into the enema bag and hung it from a towel rod. She refilled the pitcher, added the second scoop of soda and poured this into the bag. She snapped open the clamp and ran water through the hose to flush if of air, catching the outflow in the pitcher. This she returned to the bag. Jill approached her and put her hand on Katrina's shoulder. "What did you put in this one?" "A little baking soda. It'll make it mildly purgative." Katrina affixed the douche nozzle to the end of the hose. "If you'll accompany me to my chamber," she said and carried the apparatus to her bedroom with Jill following. She hung it on the chain. "Okay, Jill. Left side and draw up you knees." Jill complied. Katrina lifted the hem of her gown and ran her hand along her buttocks and muscular thighs. "Nice and tight butt, girl," she remarked. "Whatever you're doing is working -- not a dimple or a ripple in those glutes -- and those are terrific-looking thighs." She dipped her finger into the pot of vaseline. With her left hand she spread Jill's cheeks and regarded the triangular patch of more deeply-pigmented skin surrounding her friend's brown anus. Katrina buttered Jill's orifice with vaseline, working in in with her finger. Then she grasped the nozzle and pressed the tip against Jill's hole. With a gentle rocking and twisting motion she eased the tip past the sphincter. Once clear, she slid it in up to the hilt. "We'll go slow at first. It's been a while so you might have some impaction low in your colon. If you start to feel pressure or if you start to cramp, let me know and I'll slow down." "I remember the drill," Jill replied. Katrina snapped open the clamp and then grasped the hose. She permitted a small amount of water to flow into Jill's bottom; then she pinched the hose. After waiting a moment she released the hose for an instant and pinched it again. "How are you doing?" she asked as she delivered the enema is short bursts. "I'm doing okay." "Any cramping?" Katrina asked. "No -- just pressure that builds and releases." "Don't forget to breathe," Katrina said. "Take long, deep breaths and use your diaphragm. It'll flex your colon and help distribute the water." Katrina began admitting more and more water into Jill's colon with each burst. She pinched the enema bag. "You're down about a third," she remarked. "Roll onto your back." Jill rolled over and stretched her legs. Katrina let go of the hose. "You should be past any trouble spots," she said. "It's flowing in easily, now," Jill replied. "I'll give you a tummy massage." Katrina placed her hands on Jill's belly and began a gentle, counter-clockwise, circular massage. "I'm starting to feel full," Jill said. "I'm starting to feel the fullness in your belly. Roll onto your right side." Jill complied. "I can feel your cecum," Katrina said as she gently massaged the right side of Jill's abdomen. "We'll try to work it in deep." Jill ran her hands along her abdomen. "My belly's getting big ... and I'm feeling really full." Katrina pinched the bag. "You're almost done." The bag emptied with a soft gurgle. Katrina closed the clamp and retrieved the nozzle from Jill's bottom. Jill rolled onto her back and smoothed her hands along her belly. "God, I am so full." "Do you feel any discomfort?" Katrina asked. "No -- just very full." "Let's see how long you can hold it," Katrina said. "The longer the better." She caressed Jill's thighs. "I love those sexy legs." She gently palpitated Jill's belly. "You are full. How are you doing?" "Okay." "Hold it as long as you can," Katrina said. "You'll have much better results, and we won't need to give you another." She sat on the bed and caressed Jill's thigh. "I haven't felt much yet. I know you get your kinks giving enemas, Trina. I've never seen you take one." "I used to all the time," Katrina replied. "I had to quit." "Why?" Katrina pulled up her camisole and pulled down the hem of her tap pants to reveal a thin scar low on the right side of her belly. "When I had my appendix out the surgeon told me I should stop the enemas. Otherwise the pressure might rupture it and that could be fatal." "How long ago was that?" Jill asked. "Five years." "Certainly you must be healed by now." "Would you risk it? I enjoy enemas vicariously, now. I'm enjoying yours as much as you are. Feeling anything yet?" "I'm starting to feel something... Yes, it's definitely starting to work." "Wait 'til the urges get strong," Katrina coached. Jill closed her eyes and grunted. "They're getting stronger ... coming in waves." "The enema is stimulating your colon. That's good -- the peristalsis will break up what's in there. You're going to be one cleaned-out gal, Jill. Try rolling onto your right side and see if that helps you hold it a bit longer." Jill turned onto her right side and drew up her knees. "Oh... Another strong one." "Hold it back," Katrina said as she caressed Jill's buttock and upper thigh. Jill closed her eyes and grimaced. A gurgle came from her abdomen. "I can hear it working ... churning stuff up in there. Maybe one more like that one." "Okay ... one's starting..." She grunted. "I don't think I can hold this one," she gasped. "I'd better go or I'll have an accident." "I'll help you." Katrina pressed her thumb against Jill's anus and with her other hand pressed her cheeks together. She could feel Jill tensing her sphincter. A long and loud groan came from her belly. Jill relaxed and panted. Katrina withdrew her thumb. "That was intense," she gasped. "I can't hold it through another one like that." "Then, go," Katrina replied. Jill swung her feet to the floor and trotted into the bathroom, bent over and her arms folded across her abdomen. She flung open the toilet lid and sat, the bathroom door wide open. Katrina heard her grunt and a gush hit the bowl with considerable force. "Remember," Katrina called toward the bathroom, "don't bear down unless you have something to push out. Relax and let your colon do the work." "Okay..." Jill grunted as she passed another bolus of water. "Oh, God -- so much is coming out. I need to do this more often, Trina." "Fine by me," Katrina replied. Oh, God this feels good..." Jill expelled a long gush. "Let me know when you think you're about done." "Almost," Jill replied. "Just a few little ones left ... Okay, I think I'm done." Katrina heard the toilet flush. Jill emerged from the bathroom and smoothed her hands along her abdomen. "So flat now..." "That's one good looking stomach," Katrina replied. "How about a cup of tea or hot chocolate before we do the vodka? It'll give your colon a chance to rest. Maybe some more will drain out of you." "I feel pretty empty and relaxed," Jill replied. "Tea sounds good." "I have some shortbread my sister made." Katrina poured hot water into a pair of mugs and dropped tea bags into them. She set the mugs on her table along with plates with pieces of shortbread. Jill took a bite. "This is very good." "My sister's shortbread is excellent." Katrina sipped some tea. "How are you and Kenny holding up?" "We're keeping it together for Brian's sake," Jill replied. "Those six months when we were separated got his attention. He's making an effort." She reached across the table and took Katrina's hand. "You were there for me ... gave Brian and me a roof over our heads. I'll never forget that, Trina." "It was my pleasure. Do you remember your first enema?" Katrina asked. "I do. Brian needed one and you showed me how ... by giving me one. I guess I've always been somewhat anally oriented." "It turned us both on. You asked for another." "It was such a good feeling," Jill replied and sipped more tea. "It was more than a good feeling," Katrina replied. "That night we couldn't keep our hands off each other." "You couldn't keep your hands off me, if I recall." "Don't tell me the feelings weren't mutual." "It was my first ever lesbian encounter," Jill replied. "You moved from sleeping on the sofa into my bedroom," Katrina continued. "It was a great six months for me, especially after breaking up with Lahni. I was sorry when Kenny came crawling back, begging for a reconciliation." She regarded her friend. "I was sorry for myself, that is. I'm happy you two have worked things out." "We have our understanding," Jill replied. "Do you ever hear from Lahni?" "Now and then. She's in a new relationship. I was sad to see it end with her but I understand why she felt she had to. She wanted ... she needs a full-time partner. With me traveling half the year ... I couldn't provide what she needs." "So, now what do you do? Cruise the bars?" "I never liked doing that," Katrina replied. "Once in a while I find someone to hook up with. Usually it's someone working for a client -- someone willing to have a week-long fling. I trust my gaydar." She sipped more tea. "Did you find anyone at your current client? The one here in town?" "Well... There is one gal who pings about an 8.5 on my gaydar. Her name is Laura -- the office administrative assistant." "Administrative assistant?" Jill asked. "A fancy name for receptionist. She's like you, Jill -- older but she takes care of herself. What are you? Thirty-five?" "Thirty-four, thank you very much." "I can't keep track," Katrina replied. "You don't look a day over twenty- five. Laura is forty-one but she looks like someone in her early thirties." "Then, go for her," Jill said. "If my gaydar is right, Laura is pretty far into the closet. She's married, has a twenty-something daughter and a future son-in-law ... family photos on the desk and a ring on her finger that'll put your eye out." "You like her, don't you?" "I do. She thinks young." "How can you tell?" Jill asked as she sipped her tea. "By talking to her ... by how she wears her hair, in a two-tone color way. She has a blonde top layer and brunette understory. It's really quite striking. It's full and long -- halfway down her back, and she wears it down, with two locks from her temples pulled back and a broad barrette." "That is something I've more often seen on girls under twenty than over forty." "Plus, I think like she buys her clothes in the junior department ... or a place like Abercrombie. They look good on her, but they're not what I'd consider a forty-something's fashion. Today she had painted her nails gold." "Gold? Maybe her twenty-something daughter is her fashion consultant." "I've had lunch with her every day this week. She's perky and pretty..." "That's what you need in a receptionist," Jill remarked. "Are you going after her?" "I don't think so. Remember, Jill -- you have an open offer. If you ever get too fed up with Kenny ... you're welcome back here." "I can't leave Kenny -- not 'til Brian's older. We have a peculiar, co- dependent relationship." Jill ate her last chunk of shortbread. "I do like to feel his cock inside me once in a while. Besides, Trina -- you deserve someone you can settle down with." "I can't settle down if I travel half the year," Katrina replied. "Maybe I should look for another job. I enjoy the interaction with training ... and meeting different people in different locales." Jill drained her mug. She pressed her hand against her belly. "That tea feels like it's getting something moving." "Your stomach and colon lie against each other," Katrina replied. "One often can stimulate the other." "If you'll excuse me..." Jill stood and headed for the bathroom. Katrina retrieved the enema bag from the bedroom and removed the chain from the hook. She ran the tap in her kitchen sink to warm up the water. "Jill -- how much do you weigh?" she called to her friend. "One-thirty," Jill replied. Katrina measured five ounces of vodka and added it to a pint and a half of warm water. This she poured into the enema bag, flushed air from the hose and returned the runoff to the bag. Jill stepped from the bathroom and stood behind her, stroking her shoulder blade. "You have a sexy back, Trina." "Thanks." "How much vodka?" "My rule of thumb is one ounce of eighty-proof for every twenty-five pounds of body weight. This will give you a pretty good buzz." She took Jill's hand and they walked to the bedroom. Katrina hung the bag on the chain. They stood, facing each other. Katrina tugged at the laces holding together the bodice of Jill's babydoll. She released the knot and slipped it from her shoulders. Jill lifted Katrina's camisole from her. Katrina embraced Jill, caressing her back and buttocks. "I have never seen your bod look better," she remarked. Jill caressed Katrina's breasts. "You're looking good, too. Of course, you've always been slim." Katrina picked up the nozzle at the end of the hose. "Are you ready for this?" "I am." Jill climbed onto the bed and knelt on her knees and elbows. "That is one great view of one gorgeous bottom," Katrina remarked. Katrina greased her orifice and slid the douche nozzle into her. "Lower your shoulders and raise your butt," she said. "We want to put your colon downhill." Jill knelt on her knees with her face against the mattress. "That's good. Here it comes." Katrina held up the bag and snapped open the clamp. "Oh, God! It burns! I forgot how much it burns." Katrina pinched the hose. "It's filling your rectum," she said. "Relax and breathe deeply. It'll find a channel and drain into your colon. Once it flows out of your rectum, you'll be more comfortable." "I can feel it deeper inside," she said. "The fire's going out." "I'm going to restart the flow. Remember -- slow, deep breaths and pump your belly with your diaphragm." Katrina released the hose and held the nozzle deep in Jill's rectum. "I feel it again ... not as bad," Jill reported. "It's only a little more than a pint. You just had nearly three quarts in your colon. Volume-wise this should be nothing... Okay, girl -- it's all in." She pulled the nozzle from Jill's anus. "Lie on your right side for a couple of minutes so it'll drain into your cecum. The higher in your colon the fewer nerve endings. I'll take down the chain." "I'm not feeling any heat," Jill replied. "I think I'm okay." Katrina hooked her thumbs onto the waistband of her tap pants, slid them down and stepped from them. Jill regarded her. "You shaved your pussy," she remarked. "When did that happen?" "It was an impulse. I like how it feels so I'm keeping it this way. Of course I love your cute little bush." She lay on the bed facing Jill and kissed her lips. "I love you, Jill. I wish you were mine and mine alone. Think of all the enema fun we could have together." "I'm feeling the alcohol already." She kissed Katrina's lips and they touched tongues. "Let me get a little more drunk and maybe I'll agree." "I wouldn't take that sort of advantage with an impaired girl." They kissed again. Katrina stroked Jill's breast and then began tonguing her nipple. "Oh, that feels good, Trina... Mmm... And the alcohol ... I feel it coming on." Jill held Katrina's face against her breast. "I close my eyes and I feel like I'm floating... Oh, God this is relaxing. I need this, Trina. I need it..." Katrina eased Jill onto her back. She mouthed her right breast. "Stay on your back," she said to Jill. "If the alcohol finds its way low enough to cause trouble, roll onto your right side so it'll flow up higher." Jill nodded. "Got it." Katrina ran her hands along Jill's calves. "God, those are gorgeous legs," she said. "Not a bit of fat on them -- it's all muscle." She ran her cheeks and lips along Jill's shins. "Your legs look strong and sturdy -- like a figure skater's. I always thought figure skaters had sexy legs. Those thighs..." Katrina kissed and tongued her way from Jill's knees to her mons. "You have nice legs, too," Jill replied. "They're slender like a model's." Katrina spread Jill's thighs and then lay atop her, resting her weight against Jill's pelvis. "How's that sexy tummy feeling?" She caressed Jill's abdomen. "How's the alcohol feel?" "It feels like nothing," Jill replied. "You out-did yourself tonight, Trina. I feel the effects but no discomfort at all." "The secret is preparation," Katrina replied. "Getting your colon really empty is the secret." She kissed Jill's belly and tongued her navel. Then, she began caressing Jill's breasts. Jill responded in kind and they pinched and rolled each other's nipples. They kissed again. "Are you ready for some action down below?" "I can't wait," Jill replied. Katrina shifted so her face was between Jill's thighs. With her thumbs she parted her friend's labia and worked her lips between them. "Mmm, I love the scent of your pussy," she said. Probing with her tongue, Katrina located Jill's clitoral glans and began a rhythmic sucking action. She worked her arms underneath Jill's thighs so she could reach her breasts. "Oh, this is heaven," Jill said softly. She closed her eyes and let her head roll to the side. "I'm still floating ... mmm..." Jill's breathing slowed and deepened. She lifted her arms and crossed her wrists behind her head, arched her back and drew in a deep breath to expand her ribcage and press her breasts into Katrina's hands. Jill's heart was pounding and Katrina could feel the beats as she pinched and rolled her nipples between thumbs and forefingers. Jill's lips parted and her breathing became open-mouth panting. Katrina could feel her friend's thighs twitching; and Jill began flexing and relaxing her clitoral shaft. Now Jill's heart was racing. Katrina increased her tongue pressure. "I'm gonna come," Jill gasped. She clenched shut her jaw and eyes and drew in a deep breath. Her body began to tremble. "OH!," she groaned as she arched her back. Her breathing became rapid and shallow panting; then she drew in another breath and yelped. Katrina felt her friend's pelvic floor throbbing against her lips and chin as each orgasm swept over her. She moved her hands to Jill's abdomen. Jill groaned, gasped, shrieked and panted. "Enough!" she gasped and lifted Katrina's face from her vulva. Katrina knelt beside her as she panted to regain her breath. "Can Kenny do that for you?" Katrina asked. "No way," Jill panted. "He can keep a boner up for twenty minutes but he can't do oral. Not like you can, Trina. That's why I need it from you now and then. Now, let me do you." She began stroking and tonguing Katrina's breasts. "Mmm... That's nice..." Jill slipped her hand between Katrina's thighs and worked her finger into her slit. "Oh, she's so wet... We have to do something with all that wet." She eased Katrina onto her back. "Mmm... Now I get to enjoy your sweet, sleek legs..." "Are you all right?" Katrina asked her. "Won't sitting like that upset your colon?" "I feel nothing ... except drunk. I'm getting drunker and drunker..." Jill ran her hands along Katrina's thighs. "I love your pale, freckly skin, Trina." She eased apart Katrina's thighs and lay on her stomach between them. Jill kissed Katrina's labia. "Smooth pussy," she remarked. "I like..." She forced two fingers deep into Katrina's vagina and with her free hand Jill stroked her clit. "That feels good," Katrina said. She felt tension draining from her body and pooling in her pelvic bowl. Jill worked up a rhythm, stroking the roof of Katrina's vagina and her clit in synch. Katrina began pinching her own nipples in time with Jill's stroking. Katrina's heart accelerated until it was throbbing and her breathing became panting. The tension in her loins became unbearable. "Oh my God oh my God oh my God," she gasped. She closed her eyes, drew up her knees and grimaced. A flush formed on her cheeks and neck. "Are you gonna squirt for me?" Jill asked as she continued stroking. "That's it ... come to Jill..." "Oh, God, stop," Katrina panted. "Did I squirt?" "No but you made a mighty wet spot." Katrina opened her arms to Jill. They lay beside each other, embracing and twining their legs together. "How are you doing?" Katrina asked. "I am so drunk. When I close my eyes it feels like the room is spinning." "Do you want to go expel?" "Uhn-uhn. I wanna see if I can hold it all night. I've never been able to hold one of these all night but tonight I feel I can." "Maybe if you absorb the water, it'll make you less hung over in the morning." Jill held tight to Katrina. "So dizzy ... room spinning ... so drunk..." "Makes you hold on tighter," Katrina replied. "I can smell it on your breath." She noticed Jill appeared to be having trouble keeping her eyes open. "You're so quiet when you come, Trina" Jill remarked. "I make so much noise but you're so quiet..." Jill closed her eyes and began snoring softly through her nose and mouth. Katrina reached and switched off the lamp. Part II Katrina's alarm clock roused her. She reached for it and pressed the button to silence it. "Jill," she said and nudged her bedmate. "Jill ... time to wake up." "Mmmph," Jill replied and cracked open her eyes. "How are you feeling?" "Ugh... Not as bad as I expected I'd feel. I don't have a headache, at least." Katrina lay facing her. "It was a wonderful evening, Trina. Thank you for it." "Are you going to take the day off?" "I think I'll call and say I'm taking the morning off on personal business. I need to sleep a little longer and then I'll go home and take a shower." "You know where the spare key is," Katrina replied. "When you leave, lock up and slip it under the door." "Okay..." Jill rolled onto her stomach and closed her eyes. Katrina pulled the covers over her friend's shoulders. Then she swung her feet to the floor and headed into her bathroom to shower. She took the enema bag from the shower rod where she had hung it to dry and returned it to its box. Katrina stepped from the shower, dried her hair and dressed in a navy skirt and a light blue blouse. A check of her bedroom revealed Jill sleeping on her side. She kissed her friend's shoulder. Then she grabbed her laptop case and headed out the door. She made the short drive to her client and walked in the suite's front door. Laura greeted her with her customary smile and sparkling eyes. "Good morning, Trina. I won't be able to have lunch with you today. I'm meeting my husband." "That's not a problem." Laura gave Katrina a little wave as she headed for the conference room. Kevin approached Katrina after her afternoon class completed. "Trina," he said, "have you seen Laura?" She shook her head. "Not since this morning." "She asked Heidi to cover for her while she went to lunch. She never returned." "That's odd." "It's very odd -- it's not like Laura at all. I know you two have become friendly. Did she say anything to you?" "Only that she was meeting her husband for lunch. I hope nothing's happened to her." "Well... If you hear anything, let me know." Kevin turned to leave. "Oh, Kevin," she said. "Yes?" "May I use a copier? I'll need to make additional copies of some of the material." "Certainly -- you can use the copier in the break room. You know where that is." "Of course I do." "Remember -- after five the front door is locked. We ask you to exit via the back door in the break room." "I remember." Katrina was finishing making copies of course material. Most of the office staff had filed out. She looked at the clock -- it read five-thirty. Heidi stepped into the break room and headed for the back door. "Heidi," Katrina said, "any word from Laura?" Heidi shook her head. "No ... not a peep." Katrina turned to the copy machine. She slipped the last original onto the glass and pressed the start button. On the countertop she began the task of collating the sheets into the correct order. The sound of the back door's doorknob rattling startled her. Her heart began pounding and she backed away from the door. The knob rattled again, and she heard the sound of weight being shoved against the door. A third time the knob rattled. Then the door swung open and Laura staggered in. Her eyes met Katrina's. "Trina! Oh, Trina!" Laura began weeping uncontrollably. Her crying became wailing. Katrina supported Laura as she wept; and she noticed a strong smell of alcohol. "Laura -- what happened?" She controlled her sobbing long enough to blurt out, "Rob! He's divorcing me!" She resumed wailing. Katrina continued to hold her and caress her back. "It'll be all right, Laura," she said. "You're young and strong and pretty -- you'll come through this just fine." Laura began to calm. "Tell me what happened." "I tole you I was meeting my husban fer lunch ... he didn't show but his lawyer did and he serve me papers..." Laura's eyes widened and she began gulping. Katrina lunged for a tall wastebasket and held it under Laura's face as she vomited. "Oh, Laura..." she said. "I'm gonna go home now ... fine some pills or somethin. I wanna die, Trina. I just wanna curl up and die..." "You're doing nothing of the sort -- you're coming home with me," Katrina replied. "I have a guest room. You can sleep it off and then we'll figure out the next step." She pulled out a chair next to the break room table. "Sit here while I get my stuff together. Okay?" "Kay..." Laura folded her arms on the table and rested her face on them. Katrina carried the stacks of training material to the conference room and returned with her laptop. Laura was unconscious, slumped over the table. "Come on, Laura," Katrina said. She shook her upper arm. "Laura -- wake up!" Laura sat up. Her eyes were glassy and bloodshot and a flush covered the bridge of her nose. "Let's stand." Katrina helped her to her feet. Laura swayed and supported herself on the table. She made a retching sound and Katrina shoved the wastebasket under her face. Laura vomited again. "Are you okay now?" Katrina asked. "Uh-huh..." "Then let's walk. That's it ... one foot in front of the other. I'll support you..." Katrina led Laura to the elevator and to the street. Slowly they navigated two blocks. Laura put her hand to her mouth. Katrina steered her around the corner and out of heavy foot traffic. Laura stood, her forehead resting against the building and retched. She heaved unproductively several times. "Now you've got the dry heaves," Katrina remarked. "I don't think there's much worse than those." Laura's heaving subsided and she stood, gasping and leaning against the building. "Are you over them?" "For now..." "Let's go ... just a little further..." Katrina led her to the parking garage and to her car. She eased Laura into the passenger seat and belted her in. Then she started the car and drove to her apartment building. "Here we are," Katrina said. Supporting Laura, she walked into the building and rode the elevator to her floor. She unlocked her door, swung it open and saw the set of spare keys on the floor. With her toe she nudged them out of Laura's path and steered her into the guest room. "You need to sleep it off," she said gently. "You'll be more comfortable out of these clothes." She helped Laura slip out of her jacket and blouse. Katrina unzipped her skirt and then eased her pantyhose off her legs so her guest was dressed only in her bra and panties. She turned back the covers on the guest bed and Laura wriggled between the sheets. Katrina positioned Laura on her side with her face aimed downward. She pulled up the covers; then she retired to the living room to a chair that provided a line of sight into the guestroom. She picked up a paperback novel she had started and began reading. Once Katrina convinced herself that Laura had settled, she changed from her skirt and blouse into jeans and a tee. She warmed some leftover pizza and ate it for her dinner. Then she returned to her chair and her novel. Around eleven Katrina began to feel sleepy. She put down her novel and stepped into the guestroom to check on Laura. She was lying on her back. Katrina adjusted the covers and Laura sat up with a start. "Oh, my God! Where am I?" she gasped. Katrina sat on the bed and took Laura's hand. "You're at my place." "Trina?" Relief washed over Laura's face. "God, I thought for an instance I might've ended up with some man. I'm so relieved to see you." "How are you feeling?" "Wretched." "You need more sleep." Katrina patted the back of Laura's hand and stood. "Trina ... please stay. I need to talk." Katrina returned to sitting on the bed. "Would you like to tell me what happened? How much do you remember?" "I remember most of it ... 'til the end. I'm kind of blacked out after going back to the office." "What happened up 'til then?" Katrina asked. "I was supposed to meet Rob for lunch. When I got to the restaurant Rob wasn't there but his attorney was. He served me the divorce papers." Her lips trembled and she began crying. Katrina embraced her. "I know it hurts," she said. "It's the rejection." "It's the betrayal... Oh, God, Trina..." Laura sobbed against Katrina's shoulder. "What happened next?" Katrina asked. "I was in shock and needed some escape so I bought a pint of Southern Comfort and sat in the park, drinking it." "Out of a brown paper bag?" Katrina asked. "Exactly." "You drank the whole thing?" "Yes I did. I've never done anything like that before." "I think I'd forgive you under the circumstances," Katrina replied. "I know how it feels. I ended a long-time relationship about a year ago." "How long were you married?" Laura asked. "We weren't ... but that doesn't lessen the hurt. Actually, I knew it was coming. I travel so much in my job I couldn't give us the attention we needed. We were together five years." "Rob and I were together twenty-two. I married him right out of high school. I never went to college, Trina. I married him and got a job." Katrina caressed Laura's back. "You've done all right. You have a good job and you're highly regarded at your office." "Monica came along a year later. She was kind of an accident ... we really didn't plan on having a child. I'm happy to have her. She and I are very close. Rob was the dutiful husband and father while she was growing up..." Katrina fetched a box of facial tissues and handed one to Laura. She blew her nose and dabbed her cheeks. "I should've seen this coming, too. I insisted Monica go to college. She's going to State on a scholarship. I'm proud of her, Trina. She's a wonderful girl. But when she went off to school, Rob and I were empty-nesters. I was in denial over the warning signs." "Is he leaving you for another woman?" Katrina asked. Laura exploded into more tears. "Yes... Someone your age, Trina." "I don't know why he'd leave you, Laura. You're a beautiful woman." Laura's shoulders shook with her sobbing. "I just wish he had the balls to tell me in person. Now I have to get a lawyer." Katrina held Laura and stroked her back until she calmed again. "Do you have a house?" she asked. "Yeah... Rob will end up keeping it. He had me sign a pre-nuptial agreement that says the house is his. It's an old family estate -- the land has been in the family since the early 1800s although the house isn't that old. He wanted to make sure it stayed in the family." "You'll come out of this fine," Katrina replied. "Like I said, you're strong, you're healthy, you're young, you're pretty and you'll pull through this ... stronger than ever." "Thanks, Trina. I'll keep telling myself that." "What do you want to do about tomorrow? I can't image they'd insist you work under the circumstances." "I don't want to let on that anything's wrong," Laura replied. "I should just show up at eight as usual. I'll tell them that something I had for lunch didn't agree with me, so I went home sick and felt too poorly to call. Oh, God! I can't show up in the same clothes." "What size do you wear?" Katrina asked. "Size four or six." "I wear a size two or four. We'll look through my closet and I'm sure we can find something." I wish I had something to give Heidi. Covering for me for a whole afternoon is outside of what's expected of her." "I think I have an unopened box of Godiva chocolates someone gave me," Katrina said. "You could take that. I don't eat them and I wish people wouldn't give them to me as gifts." "I can understand," Laura replied. "Look at you -- you're like a rail. No wonder you can wear a size two." "You need more sleep," Katrina said. "I'm so worked up I don't think I can..." Katrina stepped into her bathroom and withdrew a bottle from the medicine cabinet. She tapped out two tablets and then ran some water into a paper cup. "Here," she said to Laura. "Whenever I'm agitated and can't sleep I take two of these. They knock me right out." "What are they?" "A couple of Benedryl." "Okay..." Katrina handed Laura the pills and water. She swallowed them. Then she lay on her stomach, clutched the pillow and rested her face against it. Katrina gathered Laura's luxurious hair and straightened it. She turned off the light and caressed Laura's shoulder. "When Monica was little," Laura said, "and couldn't sleep I'd stroke her back like you're doing now. It helped her relax." She reached behind her back, unhooked her bra, lifted herself on her elbows and slipped it off. Then, she returned to lying on her stomach. Katrina resumed stroking Laura's shoulder and back. "It feels good, Trina. I'm starting to feel the Benedryl." "Go to sleep," Katrina whispered. Laura's breathing became deep and regular. Katrina pulled the bedcovers over her shoulders. She closed the door behind her and headed for her bedroom. Katrina awoke to the sound of her shower running. She arose and pulled a robe on. The water shut off and shortly Laura emerged with a towel tucked around her under her arms. "Did I wake you?" she asked. "I need to take a shower early so my hair has a chance to dry. I hope that was okay." "It's all right," Katrina replied. "You can blow it dry." "I'd rather let it drip." "Did you find everything all right?" "Yes. I found this towel in the cabinet." "How are you feeling this morning?" "Hung over," Laura replied. "I helped myself to a couple of your Tylenol and my head stopped aching. I don't think I'll want anything heavy for lunch, and nothing for breakfast." "I'll take my shower and then we can raid my closet." Katrina stepped from the bathroom in her robe. Laura was sitting on her sofa, still wrapped in the towel. Katrina beckoned to her and Laura approached. "I found this," Katrina said, holding up a red dress. "It doesn't fit me quite right but it might work on you." "That looks like a cocktail dress," Laura replied. "It is." "I can't wear something like that to the office." "I thought if you wore your little jacket over it, it might look pretty cool." "Hmm... I hadn't thought of that. I'd need a strapless bra ... or at least a different one." Katrina opened a dresser and rummaged through the drawer. "What size do you wear?" "I can wear a thirty-four C or a thirty-six B." "I wear a thirty-two B. Here's one that's a bit large on me -- I need to hook it on the first tabs. Maybe if you hook it on the last ones." Laura slipped off the towel and stood, nude before her. Katrina regarded her breasts. They were ample, with wide areolas and fleshy nipples; but gravity had taken a toll on them. She scanned Laura's body, glancing at her full patch of dark pubic hair and her long, shapely legs. Save for the sag in her bosom, Laura's body was lithe and would pass for a older twenty-something's. "I think this will work," Laura said as she hooked the backstrap; then she adjusted her flesh in the cups. "This one converts," Katrina said and tugged at the shoulder straps to remove them from concealed hooks. "That bra gives you some cleavage," she said. "I haven't had cleavage like this since before I was your age," Laura replied. "I think it's sexy on you." Laura regarded herself in a mirror. "It is a little tight..." "That tightness gives you some lift. Is it too uncomfortable?" "Not TOO uncomfortable. What can I do? The one I wore yesterday would show and I can't go without...." Katrina handed her a pair of briefs. "Step into these." "Thanks. Wearing the same underwear would make me feel ... icky..." Laura slipped the dress over her head and flipped her long hair from it. She regarded herself in the mirror. "The bra strap shows in back." "Who'll see it if you keep your jacket on?" "True, true..." "I think that dress shows just the right amount of cleavage." "Do you think I'm showing too much leg?" "You have terrific legs, Laura. You could show more." "Do you think so?" "I know so." Katrina handed her a gold chain belt and Laura fastened it around her waist. "That makes the outfit. Try the jacket with it." Laura donned her black blazer. "What do you think?" "I like it," Katrina replied. Laura regarded herself in the mirror. "You're right -- it does look cool." "I rinsed your pantyhose last night," Katrina said. "I saw them hanging. Thanks for that, Trina." Laura smacked her forehead with her palm. "Makeup! I don't have my makeup." "You don't need it. I think your complexion looks good without any." "I'll feel naked without any. What do you use?" "I use a touch of eyeliner. Hold still and I'll apply some on you." "You don't use eye shadow?" "Uhn-uhn," Katrina replied, shaking her head. She dipped her finger into a pot of clear lip gloss. "Pucker up," she said and smeared some onto Laura's lips. "You're looking good, girl." Laura rolled her lips together to distribute the gloss. "Let me brush my hair." She retrieved a brush from her handbag. "I really like your two-tone color way," Katrina said. "It looks good with your skin and it's very striking." "Gee... Thanks. You're giving me more attention than Rob ever did." Laura retrieved a couple of sparkly barrettes from her handbag and pinned her hair above her temples. She regarded herself in the mirror. "Well, I'm ready." "Let me get my jacket," Katrina said. She led Laura to her car and they drove to the office. Laura sat behind her desk and set the box of chocolates on it. "You're a life- saver, Trina," she said. "Can we do lunch?" Laura nodded. "I'm looking forward to it." She gave Katrina a little wave as she headed for the conference room. Katrina switched on the lights and closed the door. She took her cell phone from her bag and punched in Jill's number. Hello? came Jill's voice. "Jill -- it's Trina," she said sotto voce. "Do you remember me telling you about the receptionist at my client?" Laura. Yes. "Have I got a tale to tell. Laura went to lunch yesterday expecting to meet her husband. She got blindsided by a lawyer who served divorce papers on her. She spent the rest of the afternoon drowning her sorrows in a pint of Southern Comfort..." Southern Comfort? Yech! "Tell me about it. I was working late making copies of course material when Laura staggers in, drunk as a skunk. She pukes into the wastebasket ... twice. I figure she's in no shape to drive home; and she's babbling about killing herself..." Oh, my God! What did you do? "I figured it was the Southern Comfort talking..." Yeah -- I might feel the same way after downing a whole bottle of the stuff. "...so I brought her home with me and let her sleep it off in my guestroom. She was half passed-out when we arrived at my apartment. Around midnight she had sobered up enough to spill her guts to me ... she told me her life story. We both needed sleep, so I gave her a couple Benedryls to knock her out and I stroked her back to calm her. God, Jill ... touching her was like electricity..." You're falling for her, girl. "I am. This morning she insisted on putting on a happy face and coming to the office. I lent her some clothes so she wouldn't need to wear what she wore yesterday. She was trying stuff on ... and ... and..." And what? "...and I saw her naked, Jill." Holy shit! How does she look? "Fan-TAS-tic. I told you she looks like she keeps herself in shape. Her boobs are a little droopy, but otherwise ... her butt is taught, her legs are sleek ... she has abs... She is one hot forty-something. And, she's fun to be with. I think I'm in lust, Jill!" What are you going to do? Jill asked. "I don't know..." You said she pings pretty high on your gaydar. See if you can interest her. "I dunno... I don't want to get my hopes up..." The door opened and one of her students walked in. "I gotta run -- I have a class to teach." Keep me posted, girl. I expect a full report ... with no details omitted. Not even the smallest, most insignificant ones. Got it? Katrina strolled into the reception area and saw Laura behind the desk. She looked up and smiled. "Lunch?" Katrina asked. "Let me give Heidi a ring. By the way, the chocolates were a hit with her, and Kevin bought my story about being sick." "It wasn't really a lie," Katrina remarked. "You were sick." "I think I'm forgiven..." She picked up the phone. "Heidi? Can you cover? Only a half-hour today I promise. Thanks." Heidi sat behind the desk and Laura accompanied Katrina down the corridor and toward the elevator. "I received another little surprise from Rob's attorney," Laura said. "What?" "A restraining order. I'm not permitted on the property unless I'm escorted by someone from his office or a sheriff's deputy." "He seems to be going to great lengths to keep you out of the house," Katrina remarked. "How are you going to get your stuff?" "Well, I called the big, slime-bag waste of skin..." "Rob or his attorney?" "...his attorney. I asked him that very question. He said that I could come by Sunday evening. They'll hire someone to pack my belonging into cartons and set them by the road. I don't even have a place to stay. What am I going to do with cartons full of clothes and shoes and ... other stuff?" "Laura -- you can stay at my place until you get settled. I can empty the closet in the guestroom and you can make that your base of operations." "Oh, Trina -- I can't impose. I don't know how long I'll be displaced. It could be months." "It's not an imposition, Laura. I spend half my time traveling and I'm always afraid I'll come home and find the place ransacked. It would comfort me to have someone I trust keeping an eye on things." "You're sure?" "I'm sure." "Then I'll call lawyer-asshole back and tell him I'll come by on Sunday, and the stuff had better be there. And, I'll tell Rob it's in his best interest to keep me cooperative." "We'll probably need to rent a U-Haul," Katrina said. "We should scope that out." They reached the cafeteria. "You know," Laura said, "I think I've finally shaken the last of my hangover. My stomach's still a bit tender, though." She ordered a cup of chicken noodle soup and picked a couple packets of saltines from a basket. Katrina selected a ham and cheese sandwich and she sat across from Laura. "You seem to be in pretty good spirits." "Well... I've gone through the denial and anger phases already. Now I'm resigned to it. I just want to get it over with and get on to the next phase of my life. Talking to you last night really helped, Trina." "When you're done tonight," Katrina said, "come find me. I'll show you the way to my apartment, and we can get you settled in the guestroom. I think I have some weekend clothes you can wear. Okay?" "Okay." "Here," Katrina said and handed Laura a pair of running shorts. "I think that's about the only thing I have that won't be too tight on you. It's not that you're fat, Laura. I think you're in great shape. You just have a somewhat larger build than mine." "I'll try them on." "I have plenty of tees that are ample. It's supposed to be a mild weekend so that should hold you until we can collect your belongings." Laura stepped into the guest room and returned in the shorts and a tee shirt. "No offense but I'm happy to be out of that bra and into my own." "Those shorts look good on you," Katrina replied. "I think you have good looking legs." "For someone my age, you mean." "I mean, good looking legs." Laura held the red dress on a hanger. "Did you know I got compliments on this outfit?" "I told you it looked cool," Katrina replied. "Keep it -- it's yours." "Oh, Trina... I can't. You've done so much already." "I never wear it -- I don't like how it looks on me. It looks terrific on you. You might as well get some wear out of it." "Thank you." "Hungry?" Katrina asked. "We could call for takeout." "I don't like eating takeout or prepared food any more than I have to," Laura replied. "I like to make meals from scratch. Then I know what goes into them." "Provided you know what goes into what goes into them," Katrina replied. "I suppose..." She opened Katrina's refrigerator and surveyed the contents. "Not good..." "Sorry..." "Maybe I'll drive over to that Public Market I saw on the way here. Do you want to come?" "Sure..." Katrina sat in her comfy chair reading her novel. "That was a lovely dinner," she said. "Thanks." Laura began sorting through a stack of compact discs. "Trina, would you mind if I put on some music?" "Go ahead." "It's quite an eclectic collection you have ... Bjork, Alanis Morissette ... Alice in Chains ... Scissor Sisters..." "That one is Lahni's," Katrina said. "Who is Lonnie?" "My ex-partner." Laura resumed browsing through the stack of CDs. "...Slowdive... I know some of these from Monica. She keeps me up to date on music. I think I'll put on this one by Scissor Sisters. I've never heard of them." She turned to Katrina's CD player. "How does this work? Oh, I see..." She turned on the equipment and dropped in the disc. Katrina watched as Laura danced to the music. "Rob would never let me listen to anything like this," she said, laughing. She sat on the sofa. "I'm having a good time, Trina. I feel at ease here." The music ended. Katrina closed her book. "I'm going to get ready for bed," she announced. In her bedroom she changed into satin camisole and tap pants and headed into the bathroom to complete her nightly toilet. Laura approached Katrina and embraced her. "I can't believe how you're taking care of me. I've never had a friend like you and I've only known you a week. I feel like we've been friends all our lives." "Oh, Laura..." Katrina stroked a tear from Laura's cheek. "I'm sorry. You really are helping me through this storm. I'll be sorry to see you finish your stint at my office. I'll miss our lunches together." "We'll see each other here, won't we?" "Yeah, I guess we will." "Are you going to bed?" Katrina asked. "I'd like to take a bath first, if that's all right." "Of course it is." "Do you have something I can use to shave my legs? They're getting kind of gross." "In the cabinet is a bag of Bic disposables," Katrina replied. "Go ahead and take one." "Thanks again for everything. Good night, Trina." Katrina watched Laura head into the bathroom. Then, she headed for her own bed, turned down the covers and slid between the sheets. She could hear the water running. She closed her eyes but couldn't sleep. Thoughts of Laura swirled in her head -- the glimpse of her breasts; her firm body. The notion of Laura soaping and scraping her sweet legs was more than she could bear. Katrina placed her hand on her chest and began using her thumb to stroke her breast through the satin of her camisole. Her nipple responded to the stimulation by firming. Closing both hands into loose fists, Katrina ran her knuckles across her nipples, ending each stroke with a pinch between her thumbs and forefingers. She visualized Laura's wide areolas and thick nipples as she stroked herself. Her breathing slowed and deepened, her heart began to accelerate, and she could feel her clitoral shaft becoming engorged and firm. Katrina caressed the inside of her thigh with her right hand as she continued to stroke her breast with her left. She imagined caressing Laura's long legs, freshly shaved and smooth. Cupping her hand over her mons she massaged her labia through the fabric of her tap pants. Her clitoris was very firm and her glans was a pebble lodged between her soft lips. She slid her tap pants to her ankles and kicked them off; then she lifted the hem of her camisole to her armpits. Katrina pinched her nipples with both hands, her heart pounding and her breathing growing heavy. She shifted her right hand to her mons and massaged her labia, recalling of the glimpse she had of Laura's natural bush. With her tongue she moistened her middle finger and returned her hand to her mons, working her finger into her slit. She began stroking her clit. Katrina fantasized that she was tonguing Laura's thick nipples and feeling her smooth legs against her own. She imagined herself stimulating Laura's clitoris, delivering oral as Laura's calves caressed her back and bringing her to orgasm. She increased the vigor of her stroking as her arousal grew, and she began flexing and tensing muscles in her pelvic floor to bring her climax closer. Her thighs began to quiver. Katrina imagined it was Laura's tongue and not her own finger stimulating her glans; and Laura's fingers fondling her nipples. She pinched and squeezed her nipples and her coin-sized areolas, alternating from left to right as she vigorously stroked her clit. Her climax was nearly upon her. Katrina closed her eyes, held her breath and concentrated on achieving it. Tension built in her until it was nearly unbearable. Then came an explosion of sensation in her pelvic bowl. Muscles in her bottom pulsed in involuntary spasms as the orgasmic wave crested and receded. Katrina continued stroking her clit. A stronger orgasm washed over her and again her bottom throbbed. She was panting through wide-open mouth as she stroked, and her heart was racing. A third and even more powerful spasm erupted in her loins, She drew up her knees and stifled a moan. Spent and panting she withdrew her finger from between her labia and ran both hands up and down her sides and her thighs. Katrina pulled down the hem of her camisole, pulled up the bedcovers, rolled to her side and hugged her pillow, wishing it were Laura in her embrace. Her heart slowed and her breathing returned to normal. The tension in her body dissipated, permitting a relaxed bliss to spread over her. She closed her eyes. Part III Laura sat behind the wheel of a U-Haul truck, piloting it through the suburbs. Katrina sat in the passenger seat. They reached a county trunk highway and drove a short distance into the countryside. Laura turned onto a rural road. "Here we are." "This is very pleasant," Katrina replied. "Yeah. Too bad I won't be seeing any more of it. Oh, well..." They reached a driveway blocked by a black BMW. A stocky, gray-haired man emerged from the car. Laura parked on the shoulder and climbed out of the cab. Katrina joined her. "Good afternoon, Laura," the man said. "Your belongings are in the drive. If you'll sign here." "What's this?" Laura asked. "A receipt for your personal property." "I'm not signing anything until I can see what I'm signing for." The man regarded her. "I'll sign a receipt for eight cardboard cartons, contents to be determined later." The man pulled a pen from his pocked and amended the wording of the receipt. He handed it to her. Laura showed it to Katrina. "What do you think?" Katrina shrugged. "I'm no lawyer but that appears to be a receipt for eight cartons." Laura signed it and handed it back to the man. "If you find anything missing, put it on a list." "You can count on it." He climbed into the BMW and drove away. Laura backed the truck into the drive and Katrina extended a ramp and rolled up the tambour in back. Together they lugged the cartons into the truck. Katrina rolled down and secured the rear and stowed the ramp. Laura started the engine and they drove back into town. "I've made a mess of your apartment," Laura said. "Boxes and clothes and shoes everywhere. " "Don't worry about it. It'll take time to organize." "You're probably happy that I'm not raiding your closet any more. I'm happy to have my own wardrobe back." "You're welcome to wear anything of mine that fits," Katrina replied. "I'm going to get ready for bed." Katrina stepped into her bedroom and slipped into light blue, matching satin boxers and tank. She emerged from the bedroom and rapped on the doorjamb to the guestroom. Laura had changed into a long, cotton sleep tee that came halfway to her knees. "I like your hair in a ponytail," Katrina remarked. Laura looked at the pile of clothing on the guestroom bed with dismay. "I'll have to find a place for all this before I can turn in." "You can sleep in my bed," Katrina replied. "It's a king so there's plenty of room." "Are you sure?" "Of course I'm sure. I'll start sorting through this closet. Most if it's stuff Lahni didn't want and left behind. I can give it to Goodwill." "Lonnie left it? They're women's clothes." "It's Lahni -- L-A-H-N-I. Come." Katrina led Laura to a bookshelf and showed her a photograph of an Asian-American woman. "This is Lahni." "She's cute," Laura remarked. "Her mother was Korean and her father American. She grew up in Hawaii." Katrina's eyes met Laura's. "I'm a lesbian, Laura." "You're a lesbian?" "Surprise. We don't wear badges, you know. I hope it doesn't bother you." "N...n...no... It doesn't bother me." "I don't want to frighten you, Laura. I'm falling in love with you. I desire you." "You ... desire ... ME? How can a youngster like you desire an over-the-hill oldster like me?" "You are so far from being over the hill, Laura. You're as young as you think and feel. I know you think and feel young. You were dancing to Scissor Sisters. That band is important to the gay community. Their name refers to a lesbian sex act." "I didn't know that," Laura replied. "You're fun to be with. You think younger than lots of girls my age." "I'm old enough to be your mother." "If you conceived at age thirteen, perhaps. I'm twenty-eight." "You look like you're my daughter's age." "Have you ever made love with a woman, Laura?" Laura shook her head. "No. Never." "Have you ever wanted to? Have you ever been curious? Have you ever wondered what it would be like?" Katrina regarded Laura's body language. She knew she was at a delicate point, so she maintained deep eye contact and attempted to make her expression as benign as she could manage. She couldn't help notice a pulse point throbbing in Laura's neck. "I know you're adventuresome, Laura. Only someone with a sense of adventure would wear that red cocktail dress to work." "Was that a test of yours?" "Not at all. It was the only thing I had that I thought would work." Laura bit her lip and swallowed. "Laura... I am falling in love with you. I respect you. If you tell me you're not interested, then that's the final word on the topic. I can't stop falling in love, but if that love must be platonic, then so be it. I won't pursue it further. That's a promise I won't break." Laura stood, regarding Katrina in silence. "I think I'll go to my room, Trina." She turned and headed toward the guestroom. Katrina regarded her through the open door and saw her sorting through the clothes and shoes piled on the guestroom bed. "Oh, fuck!" Katrina muttered to herself. She sat on her sofa and held her head in her hand. "Goddamn it..." "Trina?" Katrina looked up and saw Laura standing in the doorway to the guestroom. "What, Laura?" "What made you think I might be interested in..." "You ping pretty high on my gaydar," Katrina replied. "Gaydar?" Katrina sighed. "A lot of gay folks have an ability to ... sense when someone's interested. I can't explain it -- it's a combination of body language and intuition. I'm usually not wrong ... this time I was." "You weren't wrong," Laura replied. "I'm flattered ... and I'm scared." "Scared of what?" Katrina replied. "I don't know a thing about making love to a woman." "Do you ever masturbate?" Katrina asked. "If the answer is yes, then you know how to make love to a woman." Katrina patted the cushion beside her. Laura approached and sat next to her. Katrina drew up her legs and turned to face Laura. She reached for her face, caressed her cheeks and kissed her lips. They kissed again and Katrina stroked Laura's lips with her tongue. Then, she grasped the hem of her tank and lifted it over her head and set it on the floor. Laura regarded Katrina's body. "I remember when my boobs were firm like yours." "Go ahead and touch them," Katrina replied. "They won't bite." "You have pretty nipples ... a nice body ... slender..." They kissed again as Laura fondled Katrina's breasts and stroked her nipples. Katrina caressed Laura's breasts through the fabric of her sleep tee. "Laura -- you heart is racing," she remarked. "It's so many things ... desire ... anticipation ... smashing a taboo... Oh, Trina... So much has happened. I felt a connection with you when you walked into the office that first day. I never imagined you'd turn me into a lesbian." "I didn't. I can't. I can only help you discover what's already in you. We all fall on a spectrum -- a rainbow with purely straight and purely gay at the ends. Most of us are somewhere in the middle. I'm bisexual -- I've made love with men, but I prefer women. I will respond to the right man. I have a good friend who's more-or-less happily married; but we get together for some girl- girl action once in a while." "I've been brought up thinking it's wrong." "How can what two people do as consenting adults in the privacy of their own home be wrong? Who is being injured?" Katrina kissed Laura's lips. "Especially when what they're doing is expressing love and bringing joy?" She kissed Laura again. "How can there be too much love in the world? Too much joy?" Katrina coaxed Laura into lying on the sofa across her lap. Laura stroked Katrina's face and breasts. "I'm ... I'm falling in love with you, too, Trina. I can't believe it. I can't believe how fulfilled you're making me feel." Katrina caressed Laura's breasts through the fabric of her sleep tee. She felt lumps forming as her thick, fleshy nipples firmed. Laura lifted her buttocks from the sofa and tugged at the hem of her sleepshirt. She stripped it off and lay, nude except for her briefs, across Katrina's lap. "Mmm," Laura hummed as Katrina stroked her breasts. She caressed them from back to front, ending with a gentle squeeze on her nipples. "You have a nice touch, Trina. This feels really good." "You have a nice pair," Katrina replied. "I can't believe you like my saggy old boobs." "I've always been a sucker for big nipples and wide areolas. Yours are gorgeous." "You're looking at what two years of nursing an infant does to them." Laura closed her eyes and drew in a deep breath. "A little deeper maybe," she whispered. Katrina squeezed Laura's nipples and areolas with a heavier hand. She caressed her abdomen, stroked her arms and returned to her nipples. Laura's thighs twitched and her belly jerked with each pinch on her nipples. "Shall we go into my room?" Katrina asked. Laura sat up and the two women stood. Katrina embraced her and they kissed, caressing each other's backs. Laura cupped her breasts in her palms and rubbed her nipples against Katrina's. Katrina took Laura's hand and led her into the master bedroom. She hooked her thumbs on her satin boxers and slid them down her legs. Then, she grasped the waistband of Laura's cotton briefs and slid them down. The each pressed a hand against the other's mons. "You're shaved," Laura remarked. "And, you're not. Do you like?" "I think I do," Laura replied. "Would you prefer me shaved or natural?" "I don't care," Katrina replied. "Whatever you like I like." "I think I'm too old to shave it." "What does age have to do with it?" Katrina asked. They embraced again and caressed each other's buttocks. "You have a nice, firm bottom, Laura." "I was about to say the same thing about you." Katrina turned down the bedcovers and Laura lay on the mattress. Katrina grabbed Laura's legs and positioned them; then she lay so their legs crossed and their labia were touching. "This is scissoring," Katrina said and rocked her hips so her vulva rubbed against Laura's. "It's not a big thing for me but it does permit us to enjoy each other's legs. You have nice legs, Laura." Katrina ran her hands along Laura's calf. "Smooth and sleek..." She kissed Laura's shin. "So are yours..." Katrina eased Laura so they lay facing each other. She began mouthing Laura's breasts and tonguing her nipples. "Your nipples get so hard," she remarked. "They get big and firm like bing cherries." "I love your touch, Trina. It's been a long time since I've felt this aroused. It feels really good." "I think gay sex is better than straight sex. I know how you feel because I feel it, too. I can do a better job arousing you. I know what you like because I like it, too." Katrina caressed the insides of Laura's thighs and coaxed them apart. She cupped her palm over her partner's mons and slipped her finger between the labia. "I know how to stroke your clit because I have one, too. Oh, my -- you're very wet." "I told you -- I can't remember being so aroused." "Wet is good..." Katrina began stroking Laura's clit. "Is this the right spot?" "It's a good spot." Katrina reclined beside Laura and held her around her back. Laura began stroking Katrina's breasts. "It's feeling really good," Laura said. She closed her eyes and her breathing became deep and forceful. Laura held Katrina's face against her chest. Her thighs began to jerk with each stroke on her clitoral glans and Katrina could hear her heart pounding. She cupped her hand under her breast and held it go Katrina's lips. "Oh, God -- a little more," Laura panted. Katrina could hear her heart racing. "I'm gonna come, Trina," she gasped. "Almost ... almost... OH GOD!" Laura's thighs shook and she arched her back. "Oh!" she gasped and let out a groan. She panted and groaned again; then she grasped Katrina's wrist and eased her hand away. Katrina stroked Laura's face. "You got all pink," she said and kissed her lips. "That was a very sweet orgasm, Laura." "I came harder and faster than I ever remember. It was wonderful. You were wonderful, Trina. Now, it's your turn." Katrina lay on her back and Laura cuddled close to her. She rolled apart her thighs and Laura caressed them. "You're pretty wet, too," Laura said as she probed Katrina's vulva with her finger. "Show me the right spot." Katrina positioned Laura's finger. "Right there." Laura began stroking "That's good." Laura leaned over Katrina and began tonguing her small areolas and nipples. "You're catching on," Katrina said. "Just a little faster and a little firmer. Perfect..." Katrina felt her body going limp as her muscles relaxed and sexual tension built in her clitoris, amplified by Laura's sucking on her nipple. She stroked Laura's bi-color ponytail and kissed her shoulder and upper arm. Then, she surrendered herself to the sensations building in her pelvis. Her heart began to pound and then to race, and her breathing became panting. Katrina flexed and relaxed muscles in her bottom to help pump up her arousal and bring her orgasm closer. She felt her climax nearing. "Laura!" she gasped. "Don't stop, don't change it." Her thighs quivered and she arched her back as an orgasmic wave crested. Katrina gasped and panted "Don't stop!" Another orgasmic wave washed over her. She clenched her jaw and stifled a moan. "Should I keep going?" Laura asked. "YES!" Katrina gasped. Another, powerful orgasm exploded in her loins. "Oh, fuck!" she gasped as it crested. "Okay, you can stop now." Laura caressed Katrina's thighs and abdomen. "It looked like you had three." "I often have three," she replied. "God, Trina... Making you come and feeling your response ... made me want more." "We can do more. I'll be delighted to do more." Katrina eased Laura onto her back and began tonguing her breasts. "Is this what lesbian sex is?" Laura asked. "Going back and forth, giving each other orgasms ... feeding on each other's arousal until we both collapse from exhaustion?" "On a good night, it is," Katrina replied as she massaged Laura's breasts. "Do you like oral?" "I like oral." "I like oral, too." Katrina knelt between Laura's knees and began caressing her legs. "Sexy legs, girl," she said. "You have a sexy bod, no guff..." Laura spread wide and lifted her thighs, bending her knees. Katrina caressed her mons and stroked her pubic patch. "Nice, natural bush," she remarked. "Do you trim it at all?" "I've never had a reason to," Laura replied. "Even in swimsuit season?" "Even then." "It's lovely. You have a pretty pussy, Laura." Katrina kissed her clitoral shaft. "Mmm... You have a nice, natural perfume, too." She pressed her mouth against Laura's vulva and stroked the smooth skin of her clitoral hood, lifting it and then stimulating her glans directly. "This is indescribable," Laura remarked. "No one's done oral on me like this." Katrina worked her arms under Laura's thighs and grasped her breasts. Working up a rhythm, she rolled Laura's nipples in time with her tongue. "Oh, God -- I'm melting," Laura said. "This feels so good ... so good ... so good..." Her breathing deepened and her lips parted. "Ohhhhhhhh, my Goooooooood," she gasped. Katrina monitored Laura's arousal by feeling her heartbeats. She alternated between firm nipple pinches with gentle tongue stimulation and soft breast massage with firmer tongue pressure in an attempt to keep Laura from becoming over stimulated. It seemed to be working. Laura's heart began to race and her breathing turned to rapid and shallow panting. Laura's thighs began shaking. She arched her back and grabbed Katrina's forearms, sinking her nails into her skin. Then, she let out a shriek and Katrina could feel her pelvic floor throb and press against her lower lip. "Stop!" Laura gasped. Katrina came up from below. Laura grasped her cheeks and covered her face with kisses. "That was the most powerful orgasm I ever experienced," she panted. "I'll return the favor, but I've never done oral on a woman before. If you bear with me, I'll try to duplicate what I just felt. Or, I could do something else." Katrina pointed to the nightstand. "Open that drawer." Laura opened it and withdrew a metallic object with a rounded tip. Katrina took it and turned a control. It began buzzing. She adjusted it so it thrummed with a gentle throbbing. She handed it back to Laura and then lay on her back with her knees bent and her thighs spread. "Use your imagination," Katrina said. Laura touched vibrator's tip to Katrina's nipples and traced the outlines of her firm breasts. Then, she ran it along Katrina's sternum and down her abdomen, stopping to work the tip into her navel. Katrina giggled. "That's different," she remarked. "Do you like?" "I like everything you do, Laura. Sex is about having fun with your partner's body ... about enjoying each other." "Mmm... I understand..." Laura moved the vibrator's tip into Katrina's slit. "Do you want me to put this inside you?" "Inside is good. I'll need it outside to come, though." Laura slid the device deep into Katrina's wet and slick vagina and began gently moving it in and out. Katrina could feel it throbbing deep in her pelvis. With her left hand Laura caressed Katrina's breasts and belly. "This feels so good, Laura." "When did you have your appendix out?" Laura asked. "About five years ago." "The surgeon did a good job. The scar is so slight -- I didn't notice it 'til now. Monica had hers out when she was twelve. I was a nervous wreck until she came out of the anesthesia ... but she recovered with flying colors..." "I didn't quite recover with flying colors," Katrina replied. "You seem healthy enough. What happened?" "That's a discussion for another time." Laura increased the cadence of her thrusting the vibrator. She began pinching Katrina's nipple with the same rhythm. "Laura -- this feels so good. I feel like I can come like this, so don't change it." "I won't..." Laura maintained the cadence with her thrusting and her pinching. Katrina held her breath. She clamped shut her eyes and clenched her jaw, concentrating on the sensations deep in her abdomen. She flexed her sphincters and the surrounding muscles and felt herself on the verge of orgasm. With her left hand she pinched her own nipple in time with Laura's stroking, and that was enough to topple her over the edge. Katrina arched her back and gasped. She pushed Laura's hand away from her breast. "Too much, now," she panted. "Put the vibrator against my clit." Laura pulled the gadget from inside Katrina and held the tip against her clitoral glans. More orgasms washed over her. "Stop, stop, stop," Katrina gasped. "Wow -- you gave me a sensation I've never had -- a nipple orgasm," she said. Laura held up the vibrator. "This had to have been part of it." "Yeah, part of it. It was what you were doing up top that brought me to it." She kissed Laura's lips. "Thank you. Will you want more?" "I'm more or less spent," Laura replied. "You?" "I am spent. Let's cuddle..." Katrina pulled up the covers. She and Laura embraced and twined their legs. "I love feeling your smooth, sleek legs against mine," Katrina said. "I love it too... It's better than feeling hairy men's legs." "Indeed it is." Katrina kissed her. "It was wonderful sex, Laura. You did very well, especially for a first time." "I did what came naturally." "Then, you're a natural at it." They kissed again. "I do love you, Laura." "I love you, too, Trina." The alarm clock roused Katrina. She reached for it and switched it off. "Good morning," Laura said. Katrina rolled to face her. "Good morning. Have you been awake for long?" "Not very long." Katrina caressed Laura's cheeks. "What?" "I was just looking at you. You have beautiful, brown eyes, Laura." Katrina stroked her eyebrows. "I was admiring your eyebrows." "My eyebrows?" Laura asked. "Mmm... And your eyes and your cheeks and your hairline..." Katrina kissed her lips. "You have such perfect skin, Laura." "I take care of it. I stay out of the sun." They kissed again. "About last night," Katrina said. "Any regrets?" "None, Trina. Absolutely none. You?" "Regret is the furthest thing from what I feel. I've never felt stronger about anyone than you, Laura." "I feel the same way. I hope it lasts." "If we want it to last -- we'll make it last." "It's Monday morning, Trina. We have to get up." Katrina ran her fingers through Laura's hair. "I don't want to. I don't want to get out of bed. I want to spend the rest of the day lying like this and drinking you in. I love every bit of you, Laura." "We both have jobs to get to." "I know." "This evening," Laura said, "we can pick up where we left off." "I know we can. What I don't know is ... how I'm going to keep my mind on my work today." Katrina sat in her office at her desk. Her cell phone rang and she answered a call. "Hi Jill." Can you talk? "Hold on..." She shut the door to her office. "Now I can." I haven't heard from you in over a week. How's it going? "Well, I'm back in my office for a few days at least. Then, I'm scheduled to fly to Denver." I mean, how's it going with Laura? Katrina drew in a deep breath. "Amazingly. I think I've found my soul-mate, Jill." It's gone that far, that fast? "It has. We consummated our love last Sunday." You're not wasting time. Your gaydar turned out to be correct. "If anything, my gaydar was on the low side." How was she? "You know I don't kiss and tell ... luckily for you, girl. I'll say this. She was a bit tentative and apprehensive at first but she got into the swing." Into the swing, huh? "It's been every night since Sunday and each time better than the last. I think we're looking at a long-term commitment here." That means the days of our little alcohol-enema trysts are over. Well ... they were good while they lasted. "I'm afraid so. That is the one subject I haven't broached with her yet. Knowing Laura as I do, I don't think she'd object to a random three-way. In fact, she might get into it. I don't know how she'd take the enema thing." Do you plan on bringing it up? "Maybe. If the right moment presents itself, and once we're secure enough in each other. I'm in no hurry." Congratulations, Trina. No one deserves a companion like Laura more than you do. Part IV "Well, all the boxes are unpacked," Katrina said. "You are moved in, girl." "Yes. I'm beginning to feel settled." "Will you let me take you out to dinner to celebrate?" Laura regarded her. "All right ... but just this one time." "Oh, come on." "And, it's only because I have something to celebrate, also." "What's that?" "Rob and I have agreed on a settlement. We just need to have the judge sign it and we're officially and permanently split." "This calls for a special place," Katrina replied, "more special than the corner Wendy's. Let me see if I can get reservations at the Blue Room." She opened her Yellow Pages, picked up the phone and punched in the number. "We're all set," she said, hanging up the phone. "I know what I can wear," Laura replied. "So do I." Katrina stepped into her bedroom and located a halter-top evening dress. She slipped into it and her feet into a pair of heels. Laura stepped into the bedroom in a black, sleeveless dress, decorated with sequins and slit nearly to her hip. Underneath she wore sheer, black hose. "That's gorgeous, Trina," she said, regarding Katrina's outfit. "Oh, to be young and braless." "I don't go braless too often but I thought I should get some wear out of this. You look sensational, girl. Shall we take your car or mine?" "Do you know the location?" "I do," Katrina replied. "Then, you can drive." Katrina sat behind the wheel and Laura sat beside her. They held hands as she piloted the vehicle toward the restaurant. "Trina, may I ask a question?" Laura said. "Certainly." "How did you discover you were a lesbian? Did you know from an early age like some reports I've read?" "Like you, I was raised to believe it was an abomination. As I matured I realized I was attracted to certain kinds of boys ... the softer ones ... the sensitive ones..." "The ones jocks picked on," Laura added. "Yeah, those. I had a string of boyfriends but the relationships always went sour. Once I graduated from college I ended up in this town, working for the same company as today. There's a Panera across the street and I started going there for lunch. One day, one of the girls who worked there wrote a note on my receipt. She said she thought I was cute and she wanted to meet me." "So, you met her." "I think ordinarily I would've laughed it off. I had just ended yet another relationship with a man and was pretty fed up with the male of the species. I called her and we met on neutral territory; we started a friendship that quickly blossomed into love. She gently helped me get over any mental issues I had with sapphic love; and I began to realize why I had found relationships with men so hollow. She moved in with me." "Lahni?" Laura asked. "Yes, Lahni. We were together for five years. None of my boyfriends lasted six months. She was the one who took me to the hospital when my appendix burst. She was the last face I saw before going under the anesthesia and the first I saw coming out of it. I loved her, Laura. I still have feelings for her." "I'm sorry to bring up painful memories, Trina." "Oh, they're good memories." "Why did you two break up?" "At first we were in bliss. I was a technical writer, putting together training material. I was promoted to be a trainer and that meant lots of time on the road. I had little control over my assignments, and that often meant breaking plans. I had to cancel one to many special dates." Laura caressed Katrina's forearm. "I can understand. Rob was on the road a lot, too. At least I had Monica to keep me company. It's harder for the one left behind than the one doing the traveling." "I guess I realize that, now. The restaurant's in the next block. How's your appetite?" "My stomach is growling," Laura replied. "I am looking forward to this dinner." Katrina parked the car and together they entered the restaurant. They were shown their table and Katrina picked up her menu. "I'm in the mood for the prawns," she said. "I don't know... Seafood is full of toxins." "Tonight we go wild, Laura. Order something based on how it would please you. Your body can survive one night of it." "Okay, then ... the filet mignon." "A wise choice. Shall we pick a wine? You do drink, don't you?" "Of course I do ... except for Southern Comfort. It'll take me a while before I can face another round of that. I tell you, it's much worse coming up than going down." "How about a rosé? That should mate with both my shrimp and your beef." "Let's go for it." They placed their order with the server. "Tell me about your settlement," Katrina said. "Well... It turns out working at my office we have a legal benefit. Which brings up another topic, but I don't want to get off-track. I called them and they put me in touch with a hot-shot attorney, who happens to know and despise Rob's scumbag lawyer. He did a little digging and discovered the reason why Rob is so eager to keep me away from the family farm." "What's that?" "Rob has borrowed so heavily against it, and with the housing market tanking, the place is under water. He owes more than it's worth. Back when he had me sign the pre-nup, he tossed me a bone -- an insurance policy on the place in my name for the appraised value." "What was it worth twenty-three years ago?" Katrina asked. "About two hundred thousand. Rob's mortgages are three times that, and right now the place would fetch about four-fifty. Rob wants to hedge against me torching the place and collecting the insurance money -- which would be mine, free and clear." "You would never do that, would you?" "No, of course not -- but it shows how his attorney's evil mind operates. I'm sure Rob's under that scumbucket's thrall. To make a long story short, Rob is for all intents and purposes bankrupt. He's likely to lose the place anyway. There isn't an opportunity for splitting assets because there are none to split. I have a small bank account that Rob can't touch. So, my legal eagle convinced Rob that the last thing he needs is a protracted legal fight running up his lawyering bills. We drafted a settlement that sets me free and keeps me from assuming any of Rob's debts. Remember -- the house and the mortgages are all in his name only, per the pre-nup." "That sounds like a pre-nup that backfired," Katrina remarked. "Well... I can live with it. If I'm going to reboot my life with you, Trina - - this is an excellent way to start." Katrina stifled a laugh. "I wonder what Rob's young, hot babe will think when she discovers he's bankrupt. She might give him the heave-ho. That would be karma, don't you think?" "It would serve him right." Their server opened and poured the wine. Katrina held up her glass. "Here's to your settlement." They clinked glasses and sipped the wine. "This is good," Laura remarked. "You had another topic?" Katrina asked. "Yes. I was speaking to Kevin McNichol today. The firm needs to hire someone to administer the new system you were training us to use." "But -- I trained your system admin." "He gave his notice. He thinks the new system is too complex and daunting. He's been looking around and found another outfit that's using our old system -- the one he's familiar with. I suggested to Kevin that you might be a good candidate. He seemed to agree, and said if you wanted to submit a resume, he'd look at it." Katrina rolled her eyes upward in thought. "Hmm..." "I don't want to pressure you," Laura continued. "It's a good firm I work for. If you think you're getting tired of all the travel..." "You know -- I was saying something like that to my friend Jill just the other day. Maybe it is time to settle down. If I'm getting a second chance with you as a companion, I don't want to screw up like I did with Lahni." She sighed. "I'm thinking way too far ahead of us." "I'm thinking the same way," Laura replied. "I thought I felt sparks fly when I met Rob. They were nothing like the sparks that fly with you, Trina." "I'll certainly have a talk with Kevin. He seems like a nice enough guy." "Oh, he is. You'd enjoy working with him." Their server brought the entrees. "Would you ladies want anything else?" "Not at the moment," Katrina said. "I'm good," Laura added. She regarded Katrina. "Now -- I'm dying to know what went wrong with your appendix." Katrina planted her elbows on the table and cradled her forehead in her hands. "Nothing went wrong. It simply forced a lifestyle change on me." "What sort of change." "I was going to tell you sooner or later." Katrina sighed. "Promise me it won't change how you feel about me." Laura's eyebrows went up. "I can't until I know what it is. Is it really so bad?" "It's definitely ... different." Katrina drew in a deep breath and pushed a prawn around her plate. "I used to be a big user of enemas," she said in a near whisper. Laura's eyes grew wide. "Enemas?" "Not so loud! Yes, enemas. It started when I was in college, with a boyfriend I lived with. He was into anal sex, but he had an aversion to the icky aspect of it. So, he insisted I take an enema before we engaged in it -- cleaning prior to reaming, he called it. I developed an enjoyment of them. I got to the point that I was using them regularly. I loved how they felt, and how good they made me feel. When I had my appendix out, my surgeon told me I needed to stop." She looked up at Laura, who regarded her slack jawed. "I told you it was weird." Laura shook her head. "I can't believe it!" "Believe it. Oh, God, now I'm sorry I told you. You must think I'm some sort of freak." "Not at all, Trina," Laura replied softly. "What I can't believe is how much we have in common. I'm an enema fan, too." Katrina stared at her. "You are? How did you start?" "I started when I was pregnant with Monica. I suffered terrible constipation and my OB said I could use an enema when necessary. I was barely showing when I took my first one. I remember following an instruction sheet the nurse provided and feeling so inept I couldn't find my ass with both hands and a flashlight. I really like how they make me feel. When Monica was a little older, I started giving them to her whenever I thought she'd benefit from one. She got to the point where if she needed one she'd ask for it." "Really?" "Really. When she had her surgery, I spoke to the surgeon and he said that we should avoid them until the site had healed. I asked how we'd know, and he said when the incision was fully healed, then the site should be healed also. He said when you give an enema, if you keep the height of the reservoir no higher than two or three feet above the rectum, the overpressure amounts to about one pound per square inch." "That doesn't sound like much," Katrina replied. "He said that abdominal muscles can exert more pressure than that. It's imperative that the site be properly closed so it'll have sufficient strength once it's healed. We resumed Monica's enemas after six months, and she began taking them by herself during high school. She never had an issue. If it's been five years for you, then I'm sure you're fine, also." "Did you ever use one in sex?" Katrina asked. "Do you mean, like in anal sex?" "I mean as part of foreplay. I find giving an enema to my partner to be arousing." "Hmm... I think I can see that." Katrina gazed into Laura's eyes. "Do you know what I'm thinking?" "That we should go straight to Walgreen's and buy some equipment?" Laura replied. "That's exactly what I'm thinking. I tossed mine when I thought I couldn't use it." "I couldn't find mine among the boxes from the farm; and I'm not about to put it on Rob's lawyer's list." They finished their dinners and caught their server's eye. "Can I get you anything else? Dessert? Coffee?" "Just the check," Katrina said. "We have some wonderful desserts." "We have other plans for dessert," Laura interjected. "I'll be right back with your check." The server returned and Katrina handed her a credit card. She returned with the slip to sign. "How much tip?" Katrina mused. She jotted some numbers and showed it to Laura, who nodded approval. Katrina returned her card to her bag. She and Laura walked briskly to the parking lot and they headed toward the apartment building. "Thinking about this is making me so horny for an enema," Katrina said. "Have you ever had alcohol in an enema?" "No -- what's that do?" "It makes you drunk; but the experience is different than drinking. I don't like drinking to get drunk, but I like how an alcohol enema feels." "How is it different?" "The effects come on sooner and faster ... and they fade faster. It's hard to describe. You need to experience it. Sex with one feels really good -- provided you don't let yourself get too intoxicated to enjoy it. Are you game to try it?" "Why not?" "Then, we'll stop and pick up a bottle of cheap vodka. I hope it's not too late." "It's five to nine." Katrina steered the car into the parking lot of a nearby grocery store. Together they dashed inside, grabbed a bottle from the liquor department and headed for the cashier. "Here," she said and dug into her wallet for a ten dollar bill. "ID please," the cashier said. Katrina proffered hers and the clerk held it up and compared her face to the photograph. "Okay. Nine fifty-seven." The announcement that liquor sales were suspended until morning came over the P.A. system. Katrina headed for the car. "That was close," she remarked. "I wonder what that cashier thought of two women in evening gowns were doing buying a bottle of cheap vodka," Laura remarked. "I wonder what the Walgreen's clerk will think of two women in evening gowns buying a pair of enema syringes." Katrina drove to the drugstore near their apartment. Together they cruised the aisles. "There," Katrina said and pointed. "Combination enema, douche syringe and hot water bottle," Laura remarked. "Just like the one I left at home." "There are two on the shelf." Katrina picked them both up and they headed for the cashier. "I'll pay for this," Laura said. "You bought dinner and the vodka." The clerk looked up at them and Katrina smiled sweetly. "How much water do you use?" Katrina asked Laura as they drove toward the apartment building. "As much as it holds -- which is if I recall a bit over two quarts." "I used to take a three-quart enema," Katrina replied. "Three quarts? My god -- you're so petite. Where did it all go?" "My stomach bulged out to here." "Where did you find a three-quart bag?" "I used what we bought tonight. There's a way to force more water into one. I can get three quarts into one of these." "That, I want to see." Katrina parked her car. Laura stepped out with the bags from the grocery and drug stores. Katrina locked the car and they headed into the building. "It'll be a late night if we do this right," Katrina remarked. "I don't have anywhere to go tomorrow." "We'll probably want to sleep in, anyway." "What should we wear for this event?" Laura asked. "There's only one outfit appropriate for sexy enemas," Katrina replied. "What's that?" "Complete nudity." Katrina opened the door to the apartment. She kicked it closed and embraced Laura. They kissed. "I am giddy with anticipation, Laura." "So am I," Laura replied. She slipped her arms around Katrina's back and untied the halter top of her dress. Katrina unzipped the back and let it drop to the floor. She slid a half-slip and her briefs down her legs and stepped from them. Laura turned around and Katrina unzipped her gown. She regarded Laura's legs. "You wore stockings," she remarked. "Stockings make me feel sexy," Laura replied. "I'd like to keep them on ... for now." "That's fine with me." They embraced again. "When I see you nude like this," Katrina said, "I want to press all of my skin against all of yours, all at once." "I love feeling your warmth against me," Laura replied. They kissed. "You make me feel ten years younger." They kissed again. "You're as old as you feel and think," Katrina replied and kissed Laura's lips. "Then, you make me ten years younger. Shall we get started?" They opened the boxes on the kitchen counter. "We should mark them," Katrina said, "so they don't get mixed up. I love you, Laura; but we shouldn't share enema gear." She retrieved a Sharpie marker from a drawer and wrote Trina on one and Laura on the other. Under her name she placed one dot and under Laura's she placed two. Then, she marked her hose, adapter and nozzles with a single dot and Laura's with two. "Now we can identify which is whose." Katrina placed a quart measuring pitcher, measuring spoons and a box of baking soda on the counter. "So, who goes first?" she asked. "Seeing as how it's been a longer drought for you, I think you should to first," Laura replied. "Then, give me an enema," Katrina said. "Give me the one you'd give yourself. Pretend I've never had one before." Laura ran the tap in the kitchen sink until the water was warm. She adjusted the temperature by feel and then held Katrina's bag under the tap until it was filled to capacity. Then, Laura installed the stopper and hose, flushed air from the apparatus and attached the enema nozzle. "Do you have any lube?" she asked. Katrina produced the jar of vaseline. Laura dipped her finger into it and smeared a good quantity onto the nozzle, leaving a large glob at the tip. Katrina climbed onto the bed. "Get on all fours," Laura instructed. Katrina knelt on her knees and forearms. "God, I'm as giddy as the first time we made love," Laura remarked. With her left hand she parted Katrina's buttocks. "Mmm... Nice little hole ... and so smooth from being shaved..." Katrina felt the nozzle against her anus and then it sliding into her rectum. She heard the snap as Laura released the clamp. "This nozzle wants to slide out, Trina. I'll need to hold it in place. Your butt's so small it can't grab it and hold onto it." "The douche nozzle is easier to hang onto," Katrina replied. She felt fullness in her rectum -- fullness that was becoming pressure. She began taking long, deep breaths and flexing the muscles in her abdomen. The pressure released and she felt the bolus of water move up her left side. The temperature of the inflowing enema grew warmer. "Wow -- you made this one hot," she remarked, "hotter than I ever made one." "Is it too hot?" Laura asked. "It's how I like them." "No... I feel warmth permeating me inside. It seems to be flowing in well." "I like feeling warm water penetrating deep into me," Laura replied. "This is how I've always done it and it's how I gave enemas to Monica when she was a girl." "I'm getting full," Katrina said. "You're almost done." "I'll bet after five years my colon is full of awful stuff. It'll take a lot of enemas to get it all out. Not all tonight, though..." "You're done," Laura said and withdrew the nozzle. Katrina rolled onto her back and caressed her belly. "I feel full... I think I can feel the warmth through my skin." Laura palpitated Katrina's belly. "Yes -- that's what Monica's stomach felt like after receiving an enema." "I'm feeling kind of nauseated," Katrina said. "It must be the heat. I think I'll go expel. It's a rule in this apartment that when you expel an enema you leave the bathroom door open." Katrina eased herself off the bed and headed into the bathroom. She sat on the bowl, relaxed her bottom and bore down. She could feel the hot enema gushing out of her and the relief that afforded her. Another wave of nausea built and she expelled another bolus of hot water. "Oh, God," she called to Laura. "So much is coming out. Feels really good getting rid of it." "Monica used to say the cramping was feeling worse so you could feel better." Katrina grunted and expelled another long gush. "I'll concur with that assessment. I'm starting to feel really good." She lifted her arms over her head and rocked from side to side. "I think I'm done." She cleaned herself and pressed the flush lever. "It's been so long since I've had that empty, relaxed feeling after a good purge," Katrina remarked. "Now, it's my turn to give you my version of an enema. I'll show you how to get three quarts into a two-quart bag." Laura watched over Katrina's shoulder as she measured out baking soda. "I make mine body temperature and add a little soda," she explained as she mixed the soda with the water and poured two quarts into Laura's bag. "What does the soda do?" Laura asked. "It increases the tonicity of the enema water, and it makes it gently purgative. You use heat for the same effect." Katrina mixed a third quart and filled the bag to capacity. "See? It holds just under two and a half quarts -- but we can get more in." She closed up the syringe with the adapter cap and attached the hose. Then she lay the bag on the floor and held the loose end of the hose in the pitcher of water and baking soda. With her foot she pressed on the bag. Air bubbled through the hose. Katrina lifted her foot and the contents of the pitcher began siphoning into the bag. Soon the pitcher was empty and the bag lay, bloated on the floor. She closed the clamp and picked it up. "Wow," Laura remarked. "That thing looks mean." "Just think -- in a little while all this water is going to be in there." She pointed to Laura's belly. Then, she affixed the douche nozzle. She carried the bulging apparatus to the bedroom and lay it on the bed. "How should I be?" Laura asked. "Start on your left side and draw up your knees." Katrina scooped some vaseline with her finger. With her left hand she parted Laura's buttocks and then she deposited the glob onto the brown pucker of Laura's anus. With her finger she worked the lube into Laura's orifice. Katrina picked up the douche nozzle. "This might feel big at first but it's really nothing," she said as she touched the tip to Laura's opening. Her anus tightened up. "Just relax..." Rocking the nozzle back and forth she eased the bulbous tip past the sphincter. It slid easily, deep into Laura's rectum. "Ready?" Katrina asked as she picked up the bloated bag. "Ready." "This thing is heavy..." Katrina snapped open the clamp. She pinched off the flow and delivered it in short bursts. "Tell me if you cramp." "The water feels a bit cool," Laura replied. "It's how I like them," Katrina replied as she pinched and released the hose. "Any cramping?" "Just pressure now and then," Laura remarked. "I can feel it moving up my left side." "Roll onto your back." Laura rolled over and stretched her legs. Katrina opened the clamp and watched her abdomen move up and down with her breathing. "It looks like your belly is getting bigger," she remarked. Laura ran her hands along her abdomen. "Yes... I can feel myself getting full... Now my stomach is really expanding." "Roll onto your right side and massage your belly. Gravity will move the water deeper into you." Laura rolled onto her right side. "I can feel heaviness here." "That's your cecum, filling up." "God, I'm feeling full," Laura remarked. She stroked her abdomen. "My stomach is getting huge!" "You don't have to take it all, Laura. Just take as much as you can. It'll empty your colon so it'll absorb the alcohol better." "How much more?" Katrina pinched the bag. "A little more than a pint. Do you want to rest a moment?" "Okay..." Katrina closed the clamp. She sat on the bed and stroked Laura's leg through the filmy nylon of her stocking. "Those stockings do make your legs look sexy," she said. "Ready to try some more?" "Okay..." Katrina stood, held up the bag and snapped open the clamp. "Take shallow breaths using your ribs instead of your diaphragm," she suggested. "Relax your belly... Now, try lying on your back again." Laura rolled onto her back, breathing in shallow panting. She caressed her distended belly with both palms. "I don't know how much more I can take." "You are almost done," Katrina said. "Yup -- it's empty. You took three quarts, girl." She reached between Laura's legs and retrieved the nozzle. "I'm not going to be able to hold this," Laura said. "I'm feeling nauseated already." "Then, go." Laura stood. She paused to admire her bloated belly. "Look -- I look like I did when I was four month's pregnant." "Very sexy," Katrina replied. Laura trotted to the bathroom, flung open the lid and sat, expelling a long gush before her buttocks contacted the seat. "That was a close call," she called to Katrina. "Feels good to get rid of it." "Expelling is half the fun, don't you think?" Katrina called to her. "I can feel my tummy shrinking ... I think it's back to normal but I know there's a lot more enema to get rid of." Laura bore down and expelled another long gush. "Oh, this feels so good!" "I'm going to make some tea," Katrina called to her. "We can sit and let our colons relax before the alcohol." "How much vodka?" Laura asked as she watched Katrina. "How much do you weigh?" "One thirty five." "Then I'll give you about five and a half ounces of eighty-proof. I weigh a hundred eight, so I'll take four and a touch more. The vodka gets diluted four- to-one, so the enema itself is about twenty proof." She stirred the contents of the pitcher and poured it into Laura's bag. "Now for mine... Shall we go?" Laura regarded Katrina as she hung both bags from the chain she had installed. "I was wondering what that hook in the ceiling was for... How do you want me?" Laura asked. "Start on all fours." Katrina spread and lubed Laura's anus and slid the douche nozzle in deep. "This is going to burn in your rectum, but the discomfort should last only ten seconds or so. Once your colon opens up to admit the fluid, it'll drain out of your rectum and flow further up where there are fewer nerve endings." "Understood," Laura replied. "Lower your shoulders. Put your face against the mattress and elevate your butt. Ready?" "Ready." Katrina snapped open the clamp. Three seconds elapsed and Laura gasped. "Oh, my God! Oh, my GOD! Trina -- it burns!" "I told you. Hang in there. Deep breathing can help." Laura took deep deliberate breaths. "I feel it in my feet!" she exclaimed. "The soles of my feet are burning!" "That's referred pain," Katrina replied. "It's fading," Laura said. "I can still feel it going in." "Are you okay?" "Nothing could've prepared me for what that felt like," she replied. "The bag is empty." Katrina pulled the nozzle from Laura's rectum. "Roll onto your right shoulder and lie on your right side 'til your colon becomes acclimated to the alcohol. How are you feeling?" "Now, it feels like ... I can't describe it ... an indistinct discomfort deep in my belly." Katrina sat on the bed and stroked Laura's thigh. "You should acclimate to it shortly." "I do believe I'm feeling it already ... like I sipped a glass of Champagne." "Rest like that for another couple of minutes. Then I'll take mine." "Trina -- I'm feeling a cramp like I gotta expel!" "It's a spasm," Katrina replied. "Some of the alcohol must've got stuck low in your colon. I get these now and then. Hold it back." "It's so strong and it burns!" Katrina saw Laura grimace and screw up her face in pain. "I gotta go or I'll have an accident!" "If you expel the enema this soon, you'll have a very bad reaction," Katrina replied. "I'll help you hold it back." She pressed her thumb against Laura's anus and with her other hand squeezed her buttocks together. "Deep breathing ... don't panic -- this will pass." "It's passing," she said. "It still feels crampy ... not so bad, now..." "You rest while I take mine." Katrina lay on her right side, her feet toward the headboard so she could see Laura's face. She bent her knees, reached behind, worked the nozzle into her anus and slid it all the way into her rectum. "How are you doing?" she asked. Laura nodded. "Better. I'm really feeling it now. You're right -- this is a different sensation than drinking." Katrina stretched her right leg, bent her left and worked her right arm behind her back. She rolled halfway onto her stomach and snapped open the clamp on her hose. Immediately she felt the cool flow into her rectum; then two seconds later the intense burn of the alcohol on her tissues. Taking long, hard breaths through wide open mouth she pumped her belly with her diaphragm to encourage the enema to flow deeper. The burning sensation in her rectum subsided, replaced by a less distinct warmth radiating up her left side, across under her ribcage and pooling in the right side of her belly. The bag emptied with a soft glug. Katrina closed the clamp and withdrew the nozzle. "I had forgotten how much they burn," she said as she rolled onto her right side and massaged her belly. "Are you all right?" "My stomach doesn't ache any more," Laura replied. "I'm feeling warm ... damp around my temples." "Your face is flushed," Katrina said. "I get that sometimes, too. Lie on your back. That will distribute the alcohol along the length of your colon. You'll absorb it faster, but if any gets too low and starts cramping -- roll onto your right side again." Laura rolled onto her back. "I do feel it," she said, "burning in my rectum. But it's not cramping." "Since I have more experience holding these, we'll keep you flat on your back." Katrina knelt on her knees and elbows over Laura. She grasped Laura's face in her palms and kissed her lips. "I love you," she said. "I love you, too." Laura began caressing Katrina's breasts as they dangled over her. "Lower your shoulders a bit." She held her breasts against Katrina's and rubbed their nipples together. "God -- I feel like I'm floating, Trina. Are you feeling it?" "Now I'm beginning to." They kissed and explored each other's mouths with their tongues. "Can you taste the alcohol?" "In the back of my throat," Laura replied. She coaxed Katrina to lean forward so she could tongue her nipple. Katrina rolled off of Laura and turned around. She resumed kneeling on her knees and elbows, but with her face over Laura's mons. "Sixty-nine," Laura remarked. "What a wonderful idea." She began caressing the backs of Katrina's thighs and her buttocks. Katrina caressed Laura's thighs. She ran her fingers through her pubic patch and caressed her labia. Laura rolled her thighs apart and Katrina dipped into her vagina. "You are very wet and slick," she remarked. "So are you," Laura replied. "This has made me so aroused. Let me see if I can grab another pillow..." Katrina felt Laura's tongue between her labia and stroking her clit. "That feels good," she said and began stroking the glans of Laura's clit while massaging her mons and stroking her thighs. "Feeling really good, Laura..." Her breathing grew deep as Laura's stimulation of her clit drove her toward her climax. Then, with her finger Laura began rimming Katrina's anus, still slick with vaseline. She slipped it in up to her second knuckle and began working it in and out as she licked her clit. Katrina reached up and squeezed her breast as her orgasm exploded in her loins. Laura increased the action of her tongue and pushed her finger deeper into Katrina's rectum. Another orgasm washed over her and a third. "Stop," Katrina gasped. "I felt you come," Laura said. "I could feel your sphincter clamping down on my finger. I never felt anything like that before." "No one's ever finger-fucked my butt," Katrina replied. "Inside you felt like warm, moist velvet. It was a turn-on for me, too." "It made me come ... surprised me..." She rolled onto her side; then she he sat up, stripped the stockings from Laura's legs and caressed each one from her ankle to her hip. Katrina coaxed apart her knees and lay between them, her hands caressing Laura's abdomen. "How's that colon doing with that intoxicating mix swirling around in it?" "It's stopped burning. God, do I feel it. My head is swimming and I have this delicious, mellow sensation. When I close my eyes, I feel like I'm falling." "Are you ready to come?" Katrina asked. "Oh, yes..." Katrina spread Laura's labia and worked her tongue between them. "Oh, God," Laura said. "I have this relaxed, dreamy feeling ... and what you're doing ... I'm melting ... I'm floating. I wish I could have multiple orgasms like you do... I wonder ... what's your secret?" Katrina cupped her hands under Laura's buttocks and lifted them to press her mouth more firmly against her vulva. Her breathing became panting and her thighs began to tremble. "Oh, I'm close," she said. "Juss a little more..." Katrina moved her hands to Laura's breasts and found her fleshy nipples erect and hard. Shepinched both in synch with her tongue. Laura arched her back and moaned. "Oh, God! Stop." Katrina didn't stop. She continued to tongue Laura's clit and to caress her belly. "Trina ... stop. Oh, God ... on second thought, don't stop. It's feeling really good again." Laura bit her lip, drew in a deep breath and let out a groan. Her legs shook and Katrina felt muscles in her bottom pushing against her lip. "Oh, GOD!" Laura gasped. She pounded the mattress and grasped Katrina's head, driving her nails into her scalp. Katrina could feel orgasm after orgasm washing over Laura as each one made the muscles in her bottom throb. "Enough!" Laura gasped. Katrina looked up and saw Laura's face, flushed deep red and tears streaming toward her temples. "Cuddle," Katrina said and she lay on her back beside Laura. Laura lay on her right side and wrapped her leg around Katrina's. "The secret," Katrina said, "to having multiple orgasms is simple. Don't stop after the first one." "It was amazing, Trina," she said. "Now, I feel like I'm swirling ... alcohol's sweeping me away..." "I know -- I'm getting drunker and drunker by the minute." "Room's spinning." "We juss have to hol' onto each other," Katrina replied, "so we don' fall off." Daylight roused Katrina. She closed her eyes again. She had a dull headache and her body felt like it was vibrating. "You wake?" Laura asked. "Uh-huh," Katrina replied. "You hung over?" "Uh-huh... You?" "Yeah but not too bad." "How's your colon feel?" Katrina asked. "A little grumpy but okay." "Same here." Laura rolled toward Katrina and embraced her. "It was wonderful last night. I'm so much in love, Trina. I met you and my whole life changed ... and I like it." Katrina caressed Laura's hair. "I've joined a local Gay and Lesbian alliance," she said. "Are you comfortable enough to come with me to some meetings?" "Maybe I will be." "I've made up my mind," Katrina said. "If Kevin will hire me as your system administrator, I will accept in a heartbeat -- just to be closer to you." Laura kissed her. "Don't take the job for that reason. Take it because it's a great opportunity. Being close is just a bonus." "You have it backwards," Katrina replied. "Have you told Monica about us?" "I have." "What does she think?" "She's happy for me. She can tell how much happier I've been." Laura kissed her again. "What shall we do today?" "I need more sleep," Katrina replied. "You probably do, too. I like what we're doing right now." "Mmm... So do I." Katrina held tightly onto Laura. She closed her eyes and as she drifted toward sleep she could feel Laura's body relax and her legs twitch. Then, she surrendered herself to slumber. ================================================================================ Disclaimer: As in some of my other stories, this one features alcoholic enemas. Thus I feel obligated to remind my readers that these stories are fiction with fictional characters performing fictional acts, and they are written solely for the your enjoyment. They do not represent scenarios that non-fictional characters (YOU) should attempt. Alcoholic enemas are dangerous and can be (have been) fatal. That said, I realize some readers might be tempted to try it. A few have written me asking for advice. My best advice is, don't. You could end up dead. For anyone bound and determined to do it anyway, here are some never-dos you should consider: Never introduce liquor stronger than wine into the colon (you can cause serious tissue damage) Never take more alcohol in an enema than you can safely drink Never take an alcohol enema if you have been drinking or using other drugs. Adhering to these never-dos won't guarantee you won't die, but will lessen the odds. --D ================================================================================ Copyright (C) 2010 by the author.
