     Another week elapsed before Laura heard from Sara
Paige, but she kept her mind off it by thinking a lot about
where to move, and when.  There were many things to
consider.  She was reluctant to move directly to another
apartment, which could end up causing her the same problems
this one did.  A house seemed too expensive, and she might
have to move outside the city to find one that was
reasonably priced.  She could try a condo, or a town house.
Among her friends, Shavon, Randi, and Brenda all had taken
that route and seemed fine.  She certainly didn't worry
about making orgiastic noises when she spent time in their
beds.
     
     On the other hand, maybe they were just more thick-
skinned or devil-may-care than she.  Come to think of it,
even though her lovers seemed to share her embarrassment
when she grew furtive and chagrined by the moaning and
shrieking, hers as well as theirs, she doubted that they
really cared if Laura's neighbors overheard them having such
joyful, full-throttle orgasms.  There was, after all,
something to be proud of in that, something rare and
beautiful and almost holy.  Life didn't get any more intense
than that, and why should they be ashamed of it?
     
     I just want a place where we can scream like murder and
no one will even hear it, she thought.  Like we did at
Yolanda's house.  Her parents' house, I mean.  Gosh, that
was a sweet evening.  I think I came about ten or eleven
times, more than I have on one occasion for months.  Those
girls nearly wore me out.  And that delicious, long, sloe-
eyed Yolanda, dropping into those `I'm dying' orgasms.  I
wouldn't mind being alone with her, if I didn't think it
would make April unhappy.  The two of them seem like such a
pair, really friendly and affectionate, and two hot demons
for fucking.
     
     Her thoughts returned also to Shontay, who,
mysteriously, had not phoned.  Usually Shontay phoned her at
least every other day.
     
     "What about tonight?"
     
     "I can't.  I have my period," Laura would say.   She
didn't want to hurt Shontay, but every other night was just
too much.
     
     Silence.
     
     "Shontay?"
     
     "I . . . get lonely," Shontay murmured in a small,
faraway voice.
     
     "I know.  I could come over and we could, you know, do
everything else," Laura would say, if she really were
indisposed, not faking.
     
     "Would you?"
     
     "I wouldn't turn it down for the world.  What time?"
     
     Twice now Laura had lain next to Shontay in Shontay's
apartment, kissing her while Shontay masturbated herself
into glorious orgasms.  Though she was slow to come when she
did it with Laura, Shontay had mastered the skill of making
herself come in only seconds, and once Laura had even had a
sympathetic orgasm of her own while holding her because the
sight of Shontay climaxing aroused her so much.  She had to
admit that she had helped the girl along both times too,
unable, so to speak, to keep her hand out of the cookie jar.
     
     In this way she managed to keep their physical trysts
to twice a week and to keep Shontay's naturally querulous
nature in check.
     
     Even these little conversations over the office
telephones, with their veiled allusions and the soft
undercurrent of explosive sex very close to the surface,
were enough to make Laura wet, and flushed.  But she
realized she had not heard from Shontay for three days.
     
     When she called, Shontay did not answer.  Of course,
she was a busy person.  But Laura also knew that she, like
Laura and all the other directors and above, had Caller ID
on their phones and could tell at a glance who was on the
other end.  Instead of an answer, she got Shontay's voice
mail, with a crisp, businesslike greeting that automatically
made Laura hang up rather than leave some vulnerable,
whining message about how Shontay had not called.  She knew
also that the smoky, wonderful hot pulsing of sexual
innuendo that underlay their other conversations would be
totally vitiated and denatured by the electronics of leaving
a message.
     
     She was even concerned enough about it to risk asking
Randi, when they passed in the corridor.
     
     "Say, how do you like your new boss?" Laura said,
acting casual.  "She must be overworked these days, she
hasn't been returning my calls."
     
     Randi, always a devastating flirt, was wildly desirable
in a shiny ivory blouse that  showed off her jutting breasts
and contrasted beautifully with her rich black skin.  She
aimed her breasts at Laura and shimmied them a little,
wiggling her shoulders and tossing her braids sexily around
her neck, eyes flashing.  God, why do I want Shontay when I
could have this gorgeous creature whenever I choose? Laura
wondered.
     
     "You mean the broomstick?" Randi asked, savagely.
"Actually, I never can decide whether she's the broomstick
or the witch.  That skinny bitch is a cunt and a half."
Randi smiled and flirted with Laura.  "Why couldn't I report
to you, Laura?  Couldn't you arrange it?  Then we could have
little meetings in your office.  Right?  With the door
closed.  You know, I could suggest it to Rhonda."
     
     This was a hoot for them both.
     
     "Oh . . . she'd love that," Laura laughed, placing a
friendly hand on Randi's shoulder, feeling the soft bristles
of Randi's braids brushing her fingers and send hot little
darts of pleasure through her pussy.
     
     Randi shrugged.  "I don't know what's wrong with the
bitch.  She's that way normally.  She's just a shit and a
pinched-off skin-and-bones yella girl who never gets laid.
Who would want to screw that ugly old giraffe anyway, right?
If she popped her nut once in a while, she might be easier
to get along with."
     
     Laura smiled uncomfortably.  Realizing that she had got
in deeper than she had intended, she pled a meeting and
excused herself, making a date with Randi for the weekend.
She was still a little puzzled why she had not heard from
Shontay, but she put it out of her mind and threw herself
into work.
     
     Two days later, while checking her voice mail in the
morning having just arrived in the office, she flushed and
had to clumsily switch off the speaker phone with a sudden
jerk of her hand as she heard Sara's voice filling her
office.
     
     "Hi there, sunshine!  Bet you're just getting to work.
This is your friendly dental office calling to see if you
are free tonight for some more Chinese food.  Call and let
me know.  648-0921.  Bye now."
     
     Laura had rapidly snatched up the phone receiver after
shutting off the speaker, but she missed most of Sara's
short message and had to repeat it.
     
     She swiveled her chair around so that the back of it
was facing the door to her office, just in case anyone
should happen by and peek in.  She knew she was blushing,
her face all hot and red, her nipples tingling, her whole
body thrumming with heat and luminous sexual yearning.   I
can't do this, she cautioned herself.  I have to be calm.
If she saw me like this, she would know in an instant that
I'm dying for her.
     
     You can't start getting all worked up over her, Laura,
she told herself.  You don't even know anything about her.
She's just friendly.  She has a tight little killer body,
and an enchanting mouth.  Oh god, what a mouth.  Like
Yolanda's mouth.  Oh god, it makes my pussy flutter and
quiver just looking at it, both of them do.
     
     Laura realized that kissing Yolanda's incredible mouth
had been an ecstasy even more intense than the contemplation
of doing it, and she knew Sara's would be the same.  I just
want to kiss her.  And kiss her, over and over.  (Oh, I want
to fuck her too, but put that out of your mind, Laura!)
     
     She took a walk to the
