   " Sex with men is just too... complicated to enjoy, 
" Leah explained to Kaylin, who shook her head with 
amusement. Leah was forever saying things just to shock 
people. She always had some sort of story to tell.

   " And I suppose that sex with women is much simpler. 
"

   " Of course it is, " Leah continued, pretending not 
to catch the sarcasm in Kaylin's voice. " Think of your 
teen years... "

   " Thanks, but I'd prefer not to. "

   " That's just it... every woman I know feels the 
same way. With all the pressure to be popular with the 
boys, and the way they made us feel if we actually 
enjoyed sex, I'm surprised any girl leaves high school 
as a heterosexual these days. "

   " But most of us do..."

   " Yes, but we carry those sexual hang-ups with us 
through our whole lives.  Don't get me wrong, but I 
would absolutely hate to be single like you, Kay. Guys 
are all mixed up. You have to deal with all the 
relationship and commitment stuff before you can even 
think about sex. Then there are always risks..."

   Kaylin had heard this all before from the other 
women in the neighbourhood. Leah and the other 
neighbourhood women who occasionally stopped over for 
tea were married. In fact, most of them were married to 
wealthy men, to be able to afford property in this 
area. Kaylin was single, and made her own money. 
Frankly, it surprised her that she fit in at all with 
the other women on the block.

   " So, " Kaylin played along with Leah's 
conversation, " instead of wasting my time on 
complicated sex with guys, I should be looking for a 
tall, intelligent, wealthy lesbian. Mmmm hmmm. "

   " I wouldn't go that far, " Leah smiled. " Husbands 
are still worthwhile. I just wouldn't depend on the 
dating game for a good, uncomplicated orgasm. "

   " And who would you depend on... ?"

   Leah smiled mischievously, as if she was finally 
getting to a bit of gossip that she's been saving for a 
while. " Actually, I've found that April gives some 
pretty good head. "

   " What are you talking about?" April was Kaylin's 
next door neighbour, and was a respectable mother of 
three. The two of them had often gone shopping 
together. Kaylin couldn't believe her ears as Leah 
continued. 

   " With April, it's just nice and uncomplicated, " 
Leah was loving her young friend's shocked reaction. 
" The first time it happened, it took me by surprise. 
We were having tea together, the same way the two of us 
are right now. April got onto the topic of a previous 
lesbian affair she had enjoyed. It was a funny thing. I 
could see how excited she was. "

   " Then, as simple as anything, she dropped her spoon 
over the edge of the table. Next thing I knew, she was 
crawling up between my legs, and I was letting her. She 
has the sweetest tongue. "

   " Oh my god, " Kaylin shook her head. " Didn't it 
feel weird ? I mean, with a friend and all ?"

   " No, it just felt good. I mean, you know how I am. 
I'm pretty much willing to try anything. It was really 
enjoyable. Anyhow, this was a few years ago. I found 
out later that she's done the same for most of the 
neighbourhood women. Same routine. She drops the spoon, 
and down she goes. Some of them even return the 
favour..."

   " This is too weird..."

   Leah shrugged. " It's only a big deal if you want it 
to be. It hasn't affected our friendship at all. "

   But that wasn't true. Just knowing that everyone in 
the neighbourhood talked about it made Kaylin think 
differently about her next door neighbour. Even later 
in the day, when Leah's visit was only a set of tea 
cups in the sink, Kaylin couldn't get her mind off of 
the rumour. Of course it was a big deal. Otherwise, why 
would Leah have talked about it in such a 
conspiratorial tone ?

   Kaylin couldn't get her mind onto work that night. 
It was hard to concentrate her attention on the 
architecture of yet another strip mall, when all she 
could picture was the scene Leah had painted in her 
head. April, with her short, black hair and a smile 
never far from her lips... on her knees, crawling 
between Leah's legs beneath the kitchen table. It was 
probably the same chair that Kaylin took when she 
visited for tea.

   She tried hard not to make the connection, but it 
was already there. How could she go there again, sit in 
that spot, and have tea with April, knowing what she 
knew ? Would April know that she heard the story ? 
There would be tension. In fact, Kaylin could already 
feel the tension growing. 

   That night, when she went to bed, she tried very 
hard to think of a complicated male while relieving 
that tension.

   The next day, she kept herself occupied with a 
couple of household repairs. Ever since she rented the 
basement suite to a local college girl, she had been 
meaning to fix up the hot water connection in the 
suite. To tell the truth, it probably didn't matter too 
much. Judith didn't care. It was just something to keep 
herself busy.

   Actually, Judith probably preferred to use the 
upstairs washroom. It was one less room to clean - not 
that she spent much time cleaning.  She shared the 
kitchen too. It wasn't in the original agreement, but 
Kaylin didn't really mind. It was nice to have a little 
company at meals. Besides, if Kaylin wasn't cooking, 
the college girl would never get anything resembling 
nutrition. She was going through that first-year, 
spend-all-my-money-on-partying phase.

   To some extent, fixing up the plumbing for the 
tenant suite was really helping to distract Kaylin from 
the disturbing thoughts she'd been having about her 
next door neighbour. That is, until she went out to the 
hardware store to get a part. As luck would have it, 
she ran into April on the way back in.

   " Hi Kay, " April smiled through her roses. 

   Kaylin didn't know quite how to react. She didn't 
want to be rude, and make April feel all weird about 
it. Pretend, she told herself. Pretend that everything 
is normal.

   They chatted for a few minutes, and as they parted, 
the inevitable invitation came.

   " Why don't you stop over tomorrow morning for tea 
?"

   " Okay, " Kaylin answered automatically. Any other 
answer would seem unfriendly.

   After that, it was an impossible feat to keep April 
from her mind. Did she know that Leah had talked about 
her ? Would she be embarrassed ? She didn't seem 
embarrassed when they chatted. But why the invitation ? 
That was a silly question, Kaylin realized. The way the 
women in this neighbourhood socialized with each other, 
it would have been more strange if she *hadn't* been 
invited over.

   Nonetheless, by the time the next morning came, 
Kaylin had run through dozens of scenarios in her head, 
and shamefully, many of them began with the sound of a 
spoon dropping to the floor. When she knocked, it took 
a while for April to answer.

   " Sorry... " April explained, " I thought I had time 
for a quick shower after dropping off the kids. "

   April was still dripping water. It looked like she 
barely had time to throw on a robe before answering the 
door.

   " Don't worry about it, " said Kaylin, polite as 
usual. " Go ahead and finish up. I'll start on the tea. 
"

   It was hard to act this calm. Kaylin could actually 
feel her hands shaking as she set up the tea service on 
the kitchen table. The fact that April had come to the 
door half naked wasn't helping matters. It just added 
to the odd sexual tension that Kaylin was feeling. She 
wondered if April had timed it that way on purpose. Was 
she trying to set the tone for some sort of sexual 
advance ?

   Silly speculation. Kaylin attempted one more time to 
shut down her imagination as she took her seat, and 
April padded back into the room a few minutes later in 
bare feet.

   " Thanks for getting it all ready for us. Justin was 
sick until yesterday, and this is the first day I've 
had to relax in a while. "

   " No problem. "

   They settled into the familiar routine of 
conversation on small topics, but Kaylin's mind was 
elsewhere. She cursed herself silently for wearing a 
skirt today. Why had she done that ? It just left the 
possibility open. It was a long skirt, of course, but a 
skirt nonetheless. Even now, as April talked about her 
kids, Kaylin imagined the way it would feel to have the 
woman pushing the edge of the skirt up her legs, and 
the feel of April's wet hair between her thighs.

   This was all out of character for Kaylin. She would 
never have imagined such a thing before, but Leah's 
story had opened the door. It left her feeling nervous, 
and scared, and excited too. Anything could happen.

   " ... and how is Judith doing in school these days 
?"

   " Hmm ? Oh, yeah. She's wasting this whole semester. 
She's already dropped two courses. The rest of her 
time, she spends going to campus parties. I mean, I 
suppose I did a bit of that too when I was her age, but 
she's making an art out of it. She acts like she's 
still living with her parents..."

   It was hard to keep talking, and Kaylin lost her 
train of thought more than a couple of times. April was 
listening intently, but something she was doing was 
really distracting. She was playing with her teaspoon 
right near the edge of the table. She was rolling it 
through her fingers slowly, almost absently. If it was 
a habit, Kaylin hadn't noticed it before today.

   Right now, it kept her in nervous anticipation. At 
any moment, the spoon could drop to the floor. For the 
life of her, Kaylin didn't know what she would do when 
that moment came. Maybe she would politely excuse 
herself from the table. Or maybe... 

   ... well...

   ... she could feel the impulse to open her legs ever 
so slightly. It would just be the hint of an 
invitation. April could take it from there.

   God, this was nasty, Kaylin could hear herself 
thinking.

   " ... I mean, she never cleans up her own suite, and 
I even end up doing her dishes for her... it's um... 
like... having a little sister... or something..."

   April nodded and smiled, still playing dangerously 
with her spoon.

   The tension was unbearable. Why didn't she drop it 
already, the way she had for the other neighbourhood 
women ? Kaylin was beginning to think that it wouldn't 
be the worst thing on earth if she allowed this to 
happen. God knows, she was horny enough. Besides, if 
everyone else was letting April do this, it wouldn't 
feel so abnormal.

   Maybe it was no big deal, the way Leah had said...

   ... rationalizations, of course, but they felt very 
good right at the moment.

   " Does she do her own laundry ?" April broke in as 
Kaylin fumbled for words.

   " Some of the time...but really, it's not like I go 
down every day and clean up for her. It's just, well, 
every once in a while it gets a bit out of hand... and 
I like to confirm that there's actually a floor down 
there beneath her mess..."

   Drop it, damn it. The conversation was drying up, 
and the anticipation was killing Kaylin. She sipped her 
tea nervously. Maybe she just wasn't giving the right 
signals. Maybe April just needed some encouragement.

   Slowly, Kaylin reached out and began to play with 
her own tea spoon. It would just be a hint. April would 
know that she had heard the stories. 

   Kaylin nervously played with her spoon, all the 
while wondering why she was pursuing this at all. While 
it was true that her own love life was pitifully empty, 
she had never even considered doing anything with 
another woman.

   " Maybe you should ask her to split the food bill, " 
April suggested, seemingly oblivious to Kaylin's 
signal. " At least she'd have less money for alcohol at 
the end of the week. "

   " Yeah, I um, I guess I could do that..."

   Drop it, Kaylin silently commanded. Why wouldn't she 
drop it ?

   April took another sip of her tea. Kaylin's heart 
was beating desperately, and she couldn't control the 
perverse arousal that this situation was bringing out. 

   Enough was enough. Kaylin decided to send an 
unmistakable signal. Slowly and purposefully, she 
brought her spoon to the edge of the table and dropped 
it off. There. Now April would know everything. It was 
an invitation to action.

   A tense moment followed. April made no offer to pick 
up the spoon. She just watched Kaylin. 

   It felt like a long moment, but it was probably only 
seconds. Suddenly, Kaylin felt very awkward for having 
forced the situation. " I'm sorry, " she finally 
apologized, " I'll get that. "

   She crouched under the table to find the spoon, her 
head buzzing with questions. It was so weird. She had 
really expected April to take the opportunity. That's 
what she had done with all the other women. Then 
another possibility hit her. Maybe, by dropping her 
spoon first, she had beaten April to making the offer. 

   How embarrassing !

   God, it made sense. The strange way April had stared 
at her after the silver hit the floor... she was 
waiting for something. And now, here Kaylin was, 
beneath the table on her hands and knees, with April's 
bare legs only inches away. Her body was warm from the 
shower, and just barely covered by a white robe.

   April would be expecting it now, just the same way 
that Kaylin had expected it a moment before. How could 
she explain backing out of it ? She paused.

   She just couldn't. Not now that she had sent April 
all the signals. This was obviously what she had come 
down here for, and each second she paused made it more 
awkward to retract the unspoken offer. 

   The humiliating role reversal heated her body. This 
was going to happen.

   Kaylin crawled forward, and placed her hands on her 
friend's knees. April tensed. Gently, Kaylin pushed her 
knees apart, allowing the robe to fall to the sides of 
her legs. The air was filled with the aroma of arousal. 
Maybe it was April, maybe it was her own. Kaylin didn't 
care. Now, for the first time, she really wanted a 
taste. 

   April had a pretty good body for being a mother of 
three. Her thighs were a little heavy, but their flesh 
was warm and moist against Kaylin's cheeks as she 
pushed forward to her goal.

   Everything that Leah had said about this seemed like 
a lie now. There was nothing uncomplicated about this 
act. Kaylin was on her knees... that carried all sorts 
of submissive implications. She was here on her knees 
for a friend and neighbour. Suddenly, they didn't seem 
quite so equal. Without so much as a word, she was 
crawling between her neighbour's legs, and was ready to 
perform a lesbian sex act for the first time. No, there 
was nothing simple about her feelings right now.

   The softness of April's mound came suddenly to her 
lips. Like the rest of her body, the flesh here was 
warm from the shower. April tensed and gasped as Kaylin 
began to explore her pussy.

   It was different than her own. That probably 
shouldn't have been a surprise, but somehow it was. The 
folds of April's pussy were heavier and looser than her 
own. Maybe it was just that April was a mother of three 
children, or maybe it was just an individual thing.

   Some things were the same, though. The way April's 
body reacted when Kaylin pushed her tongue deep within 
those folds was the same. She shuddered with pleasure 
as the younger woman found all the right spots, and 
caressed them with her soft tongue and lips. 

   Kissing, licking, worshipping... these acts 
resonated through Kaylin's own body, as she imagined 
the sensations they would arouse. There was excitement 
in providing this kind of pleasure, and despite the 
strangeness of the situation, Kaylin couldn't deny that 
she was enjoying it in some perverse way.

   April's hands came down now. From above, Kaylin 
could hear her neighbour breathing heavily. April's 
hands took hold of Kaylin's ears, and pulled her head 
gently away from her goal.

   " I shouldn't..." she whispered, but didn't sound 
convinced.

   Kaylin pushed forward, ignoring the gentle pulling 
at her ears. She could feel the way that April's body 
was reacting to the attention, and knew that her climax 
would be intense. It wasn't far away now.

   " No..." April squirmed in her seat. Her thumbnails 
dug into Kaylin's ears as April continued to tug 
backwards, away from her body.

   Again, Kaylin ignored the pressure. They were too 
close now. It didn't matter if April wanted this to 
last longer. Kaylin desperately wanted to taste and 
feel the coming orgasm.

   " Oh, god... oh, fuck... no... I shouldn't... oh 
fuck... OH FUCK !"

   April began to chant her coming orgasm, and 
tightened her grip beneath the table. Kaylin could feel 
her ass and thighs jerking with climax, and could feel 
the heated juices running against her tongue.

   " This is too much... god, no... please... I 
can't... oh, god..."

   Her words were lost in a set of squeals and grunts. 
The wooden chair rocked just slightly in place as April 
ground her pussy into her friend's face. Above, the tea 
cups clattered against their saucers. Just as Aprils 
body began to relax, her spoon fell from the edge of 
the table.

***

   Kaylin tried not to think about what she had done. 
It was just too humiliating.

   There was an awkward moment, just after April let go 
of her head, that made Kaylin cringe every time she 
thought about it. There was just no graceful way to 
crawl out from beneath the table after licking a friend 
to orgasm. Kaylin's face had been beat red when she 
finally took her seat again.

   At that moment, all she could do was excuse herself, 
mumbling something about a meeting she had to attend at 
one of the building sites. In her car, she could feel 
the way her hands were shaking, and snuck glances in 
the mirror to catch the panicked look on her face. 
Kaylin paused at a traffic light to re-apply her 
lipstick. 

   It all stuck with her. The twisted arousal. The role 
reversal. The shameful way she couldn't meet April's 
gaze when she crawled out from under the table. Through 
the whole day of meetings, she felt entirely off-
balance. 

   Returning home didn't help. Two messages were 
waiting on her machine.

   " Hi, it's me..." said the playful tone that could 
only belong to Leah. " Well..."

   Pause.

   " I hear you had tea with April. Was it fun ? Call 
me... "

   Leah's was the very last voice she wanted to hear. 
Kaylin erased the message vindictively. It was her 
mischievous gossip that had led Kaylin to her knees. 
The second message on the machine was no more 
comforting. 

   <beep>

   " Hi Kay, it's Sarah. I was just calling to invite 
you over for tea tomorrow. I hope you can make it. 
Let's see... I'll make it around 1:00. I'll see you 
then. "

   Her voice sent chills through Kaylin's body. Sarah 
lived down the block a ways, and had been one of her 
earliest friends in the area. In fact, she often got 
the impression that most of the other women had simply 
followed Sarah's lead in making friends with her. She 
was a commanding woman, and carried some weight in the 
community, both figuratively and literally. 

   The thing of it was, in all the time Kaylin had 
known Sarah, she had never been invited over for tea. 
Sure, there had been plenty of lunches with her, even 
day trips, but not tea. It was a funny little detail. 
It probably never would have occurred to Kaylin at all, 
except that...

   She tried to stop herself from thinking that way. It 
was probably nothing. After all, none of the other 
neighbours had called. 

   In the end, there was no way to excuse herself from 
going without being rude. Sarah answered the door with 
a quick informal hug.

   " I'm glad you made it. Sorry, I'm on the phone with 
someone from the school board. Could you get started in 
there ? I'll catch up with you in a minute. "

   Sarah was a municipal counsellor, and also sat on 
the school board. There were very few people with more 
influence in the community. The heavy set woman was 
known as a tough bitch, but Kaylin had never had a 
problem with her. 

   In the kitchen, she began the ritual of setting up 
the tea service. It was hard for Kaylin to keep her 
imagination under control. The whole scene was too 
familiar. Damn, why couldn't it have been an invitation 
to lunch or out to the gym today, Kaylin cursed 
silently.

   " I'm turning this thing off for the day, " Sarah 
said, tossing her cell phone onto the counter. " I 
don't get a moment's peace when it's on. "

   " I don't even carry one, " agreed Kaylin. " I think 
I'd rather not be reached sometimes. "

   " Amen. "

   Sarah had a commanding presence. She wore clothes 
that didn't apologize for her extra weight, and had a 
look of directness in her eye that seemed to cut 
through all the crap.

   " I haven't been visiting as much these days, " 
Sarah started. " How's everyone over on the other side 
of the neighbourhood ?"

   " Everyone's okay. Tina finally let Mike buy that 
sailboat he wanted. Leah is... well... you know 
Leah..."

   " Uh huh, " Sarah laughed. " And how is April... ?"

   The tone of the question caught Kaylin off-guard, 
and Sarah was watching the reaction intently. Just the 
slightest of pauses was all it took to make Kaylin's 
face go red.

   " She's, um... she's really good... I think. Justin 
was home from school for a few days, and I think she's 
glad to have a little time to herself. "

   The way that Sarah was watching her was too intense. 
She definitely knew something. Could the rumour have 
gotten around that quickly ? Of course, with Leah 
involved, there was no knowing how many women had heard 
it. Kaylin couldn't stand to think about it.

   There was a tense silence across the table now. 
Sarah didn't seem to mind at all. She sipped her tea 
calmly, and watched as her young friend fidgeted and 
squirmed in her seat.

   Then, deliberately, she picked up her tea spoon, and 
began to roll it through her fingers. Any doubt was 
gone. She knew.

   Kaylin couldn't decide what to do next. It was 
obvious that Sarah was sending a signal... maybe even 
an invitation, but Kaylin didn't want to misread it the 
way she had with April. Leah had told her that some of 
the other women had enjoyed sex with April, and had 
even returned the favour.

   Was that what Sarah was looking to do ? She played 
with the teaspoon suggestively, right at the edge of 
the table. Kaylin's body reacted almost involuntarily. 
Since the previous day, she had been in a state of 
almost constant arousal. Now, if Sarah was offering to 
go under the table, Kaylin knew she couldn't refuse. 
She needed a good orgasm too badly.

   But what if that wasn't what Sarah was looking for ? 
Maybe it was just flirtation, to see if the rumour was 
true. Or maybe she was hoping that Kaylin would make an 
offer. It was hard to tell.

   Kaylin continued to squirm in her seat while her 
older neighbour calmly toyed with her teaspoon. Sarah 
was so in control. It looked like she had done this a 
thousand times before. Of course, she wasn't the type 
to be nervous about anything. 

   The tension built. Somebody had to do something, 
Kaylin told herself. This was unbearable. 

   " I... um..." she began.

   " Shhh, " Sarah silenced her. It was clear who was 
in control. 

   Kaylin's breathing became shallow, and her face went 
a deeper shade of red. All the while, Sarah just 
watched her become more flustered. What was she waiting 
for ?

   Then, slowly, Kaylin reached for her own spoon. Was 
this what Sarah wanted ? The shadow of a smile came to 
Sarah's lips.

   She wasn't sure if she could go through with this 
again, but Kaylin also knew that she could stand 
another minute of Sarah's commanding gaze. It was 
obvious that she expected this. It was what she had 
invited Kaylin over for, and at this moment, Kaylin 
just couldn't think of any way to excuse herself from 
the situation.

   The sound of the silver clattering to the floor made 
both women jump a little. Then, without a word, Kaylin 
dropped to her knees to retrieve her spoon. Sarah 
accepted the offer by spreading her legs just a bit. 
For the second time in as many days, Kaylin found 
herself doing the unthinkable. She crawled forward 
between Sarah's thick legs, and pushed her face up 
Sarah's designer business skirt.

   Sarah's body was ready. She pressed forward in the 
chair, forcing her pussy into the younger woman's face. 
Kaylin tasted the arousal immediately. The extended 
flirtation had left Sarah's hair-covered lips slick and 
hot. 

   " That's really nice, Kay. Oh, fuck, that's nice..."

   The compliment was probably meant nicely, but it 
made Kaylin feel like a whore.

   " A little lower, dear. Get right in there. "

   Unlike the quick, tense session with April the 
previous day, Sarah seemed happier with a slow pace. 
She took her time, and enjoyed the attention her 
younger friend was providing. She was specific in her 
instructions, and even in her criticisms.

   " I want to feel your lips too, Kay. Yeah, that's 
right... suck my clit for a while. "

   By the time the heavy woman came to a grunting 
orgasm, Kaylin's tongue and jaw were numb from the 
extended effort. She held on tightly as Sarah's flabby 
thighs quaked in lust, and the older woman pressed her 
sopping pussy against her slick face in climax. 

   This time too, Kaylin excused herself awkwardly 
afterwards. Everything was happening too quickly. By 
the time she got home that evening, after avoiding the 
neighbourhood for the remainder of the day, three more 
messages were waiting on her machine.

   " It's me again..." said the amused voice of Leah. " 
Hey, call me! I'm dying to hear what's going on with 
you. "

   Another spiteful deletion. There was only one person 
who would have spread the rumour to Sarah, and it was 
Leah. 

   <beep>

   " Hi, it's April... um..." Kaylin's next door 
neighbour sounded hesitant, " I didn't see you around 
today. I um... I was going to invite you over for tea 
again tomorrow. Russ is gone by eight thirty, and he's 
agreed to take the kids in to school. I can't wait... "

   Fuck. Was April expecting another session under the 
table ?

   <beep>

   " Hello Kay ? This is Julie Huong, from across the 
street. I wanted to have you over for tea tomorrow, " 
the Asian woman spoke English pretty well, but with a 
thick accent. " Can you be here around ten o' clock?"

***

   " Hello ?"

   " Hi... um, Leah... it's..."

   " Jesus, Kay... I've been leaving you messages for 
two weeks..."

   Kaylin Paused. Maybe this was a mistake. She had 
been making so many of them recently. But, mistake or 
not, she really needed to talk to someone... 

   ... and Leah was the only neighbour who she hadn't 
been having tea with over the last couple of weeks.

   " Sorry, " Kaylin tried to sound sincere, " I've 
just been really busy."

   " So I hear... every time I talk to anyone, they 
tell me that you've been over for tea. You're really 
popular these days. "

   " I don't know how it all happened, Leah. I don't 
know what to do. "

   " About what ? It sounds like everything is going 
great.  Aren't you enjoying yourself ?"

   " No... I mean, well... I guess a little... it's 
just really weird. "

   " Christ, you make too big a deal out of things, 
Kay. This really isn't anything to be upset about. It's 
just some women helping each other out over a friendly 
cup of tea. "

   " I know, but..."

   Leah cut her off. " If you think it's so weird, why 
do you keep accepting the invitations ?"

   A pause.

   " I guess... it would just feel too rude. I mean, 
after I did it for April, and Sarah, and for Julie 
Huong... I sort of thought that it would seem like a 
snub if I didn't accept the other invitations..."

   " You're kidding yourself, Kay. You wouldn't be 
doing it at all if you weren't having some fun... is it 
so hard to admit that to yourself ?"

   " It's sort of... well, I don't know if I can 
say..."

   " Go on. "

   " That first time, when you told me about April, 
I... well, I have to admit it made me really curious... 
and then, it made me horny. Then she invited me over, 
and I was sort of expecting her to... you know..."

   " Lick your pussy. "

   " Um, yeah. But it didn't turn out that way. I guess 
I sent the wrong signals, and I ended up doing it for 
her. Then when I went to see Sarah and Julie, it ended 
up the same way. Each time, I'd get really aroused just 
thinking about the way it would feel, but it always 
turns out the same..."

   " The same ?"

   " Yeah. It feels so... dirty. I come over, and they 
always expect me to make the tea. Then, after I've 
poured the tea... they don't really even talk to me 
anymore... they just pick up their teaspoon, and sort 
of tease me with it... but it never drops..."

   " And ?"

   " And, when I can't stand it anymore, and I'm so 
horny that it hurts, I just crumble, and drop my own 
spoon. And I get so ashamed, crawling under the table 
for everyone... when what I really want is..."

   " Mmm Hmm..."

   " It's turning into a routine. I visit April almost 
every morning, after the kids are off to school, and we 
don't really even chat much... she's so anxious to get 
started. I've done it for Mary, and Cina, and Mrs. 
Wenzoski..."

   " Mrs. Wenzoski ? " Leah sounded amused.

   " I just didn't want to be rude. And since her 
husband died..."

   " I don't even want to think about it, Kay. But 
really, I still don't see the problem. "

   " It's just that... it seems like everyone just 
*expects* it from me now, and no one ever does it for 
me, and I always leave needing an orgasm really badly. 
"

   " Is that all ? Don't be such a baby. Hell, I'd come 
over and do it for you right now, if I didn't have such 
bad knees. "

   The scolding tone of her voice made Kaylin cringe. 

   " I didn't mean it like that, Leah. "

   " You've got to toughen up a bit, Kay. Here I went, 
and let you in on a secret about the neighbourhood 
women... and in the meantime, you're getting all upset 
for selfish reasons. It's been a long time since we've 
had a new neighbour coming over for tea, and it's only 
natural that most of the women would want to try you 
out. Your turn will come in time, but no one is going 
to do anything for you if you're going to be selfish 
about it. "

   " I don't want to be selfish... it's just..."

   " Listen to yourself. You're making a big deal out 
of something so minor. "

   " Look, I've got to go. Judith's coming up for 
dinner. "

   The college girl's entrance was a welcome escape 
from a conversation that was making Kaylin feel about 
two inches tall.

   It was strange to admit, but the only relationship 
that still seemed normal in Kaylin's life was the one 
with Judith. Even the fact that Kaylin was cooking the 
younger girl's meals, doing the dishes, and washing her 
laundry didn't seem so odd. It just seemed domestic. 
Normal. 

   Judith was like a daughter, or a sloppy younger 
sister, or something mundane like that.

   " Hey, can I borrow your car tomorrow, to go to my 
chem lab ?"

   " Is there a bus strike I don't know about ?"

   " C'mon... it takes me a half hour by bus. If I had 
your car, I'd be there in ten minutes. And I've got 
half my lab done already, so it would only be for like 
an hour or so. "

   Kaylin shrugged. She was visiting some friends for 
tea the next morning anyhow. 

   " Okay, but throw a couple of dollars into the gas 
tank, would you ?"

   " Mmmph hmm. " Judith agreed, with her mouth full. 
Which, of course, meant that the tank would be empty 
when she returned.

***

   Kaylin really tried to see it the way that Leah had 
explained. She tried to pretend that it was no big 
deal. But it was. She could sense it. It wasn't so much 
the sex acts that bothered her anymore. It was the way 
everyone treated her.  

   For instance, April liked to take breakfast with her 
tea these days, and she just expected Kaylin to make it 
for her. On most days, she didn't even come down from 
bed until it was ready. Kaylin could hear her upstairs, 
taking a quick trip to pee in the washroom, and then 
stumbling down with sleep still in her eyes, and her 
robe half-open.

   It was never much longer before Kaylin was crawling 
between her legs, and helping to wake her up with some 
oral attention. April would finish half her breakfast 
before getting close to orgasm. 

   And when it was done, Kaylin was expected to leave. 

   No matter what Leah said, it felt like a big deal to 
Kaylin, and she felt like a total wimp for letting it 
all get this far.

   Her new popularity with the neighbours was clear in 
the number of messages that were left on her machine. 
In the three days following her conversation with Leah, 
she heard from no less than five women.

   " Let's see, " she could hear Sarah on the other end 
of the phone going through her daytime, " how about two 
o'clock ?"

   Kaylin was quick to call back.

   " I'm sorry, Sarah, but I'm going over to Rebecca's 
place around that time tomorrow. "

   But Sarah was never one to give up her plans so 
easily. " Don't worry. I'll call her up, and invite her 
over. I can probably get Amy too. We'll make a real tea 
party out of it. "

   The thought of it was almost more than Kaylin could 
handle. The dirty little one-on-one sessions with these 
women were bad enough, but doing it with three of 
them...

   She even considered defying Sarah, and not showing 
up.

   Than again, she thought, if there's more than one 
woman there, maybe someone would pay attention to her 
needs. The thought made her shudder. The image of 
pretty Amy crawling beneath the table for her... or 
even Rebecca...

   She wasn't sure she believed it would turn out that 
way, but in the end, she found herself on Sarah's 
doorstep.

   Kaylin just stood there for a few minutes, trying to 
convince herself not to go through with it, but she 
knew that she would. It would be just like every other 
time. Over the last two weeks, she couldn't count the 
number of times she had resolved to keep her composure, 
and resist the urge to drop her spoon to the floor.

   But her body always won. Imaginations of what would 
happen inside were already sending jolts of arousal 
through her belly. Recently, even her dreams had been 
filled with the gentle sounds of tea cups and spoons 
clicking melodically. And she wanted to resist... she 
really did...

   Then, right on schedule, surrender came, and Kaylin 
found her trembling fingers reaching for the doorbell.

   " You're later than I expected... " Sarah chastised 
her younger neighbour. " You'd better get started. The 
other ladies will be here soon. "

   Sarah led her to the kitchen, and then went upstairs 
to check her e-mail, leaving Kaylin to set the table 
for tea. With a flush of shame, Kaylin dutifully began 
to set out the tea service. A minute later, the 
doorbell rang again.

   Kaylin paused in setting the table. Sarah was 
nowhere to be seen. Feeling more and more like a house 
servant, Kaylin answered the door and led Amy in to her 
seat. Rebecca arrived not much later.

   " Are you still going to the same fitness club ?" 
Rebecca began a conversation with the other woman as 
Kaylin finished setting up the table. 

   " When I have the time... " answered Amy, who had a 
fit little body that didn't really need any more work. 
They passed the regular gossip back and forth, just 
killing time before Sarah joined them from upstairs. 

   " Did I miss anything important ?" Sarah joked, 
taking her seat. Almost involuntarily, Kaylin rose to 
pour her friend a tea. A giggle passed back and forth 
between Amy and Rebecca, who had entirely excluded her 
from the conversation so far.

   The women launched back into gossip as Kaylin 
returned to her seat. As she sat down, she accidentally 
knocked her tea spoon from its perch right at the edge 
of the table. That stopped everything.

   " My, my... someone's anxious to get started today, 
" teased Amy.

   " I'm sorry... I just..."

   The other women laughed as Kaylin's face went a bold 
shade of red. 

   " That's fine, Kay. You can start over here. " Amy 
reached under the table, and began to squirm out of her 
panties. Kaylin made one final attempt to change the 
direction this was going.

   " I thought... maybe..." She couldn't choke out the 
words.

   Everyone was looking at her now. Why couldn't she 
just ask for what all of the other women seemed to 
expect so easily ?

   " ...maybe someone could... "

   Kaylin just couldn't say it out loud.

   " Yes ?"

   " Nothing. " 

   Defeated, Kaylin dropped her eyes, and did what the 
other women at the table expected. Slowly, and with the 
deepest sense of shame, she crawled between Amy's 
waiting legs.

   " I can't believe I'm doing this in front of two 
other women, " the conversation continued above. Amy's 
body jerked a bit as Kaylin found her mark. 

   " I think we were all a little surprised by what Kay 
is into, but she didn't seem to mind me inviting you 
gals over. "

   This couldn't get any more humiliating, Kaylin told 
herself silently. Not only were the women continuing 
their conversation, but now they were gossiping about 
her even while she was under the table, licking pussy.

   "  When I first heard the rumour, " Rebecca joined 
in, " I completely thought that Leah was just making up 
another one of her stories. The last thing I expected 
was to hear from April that it was true. I mean, 
really, I couldn't believe that there were girls like 
this in real life. "

   " That's what I thought too, " Sarah agreed. " 
Leah's always twisting reality in one fashion or 
another. I figured she was just playing one of her 
games. But when I heard it from April, I just had to 
find out for myself, one way or the other. I don't mind 
admitting that the rumour sparked my imagination a bit. 
"

   Kaylin couldn't believe what she was hearing. She 
didn't understand. It just didn't make sense...

   " I don't blame you a bit, " agreed Amy, as she 
dropped one of her hands beneath the table to guide 
Kaylin's tongue. " I never really even considered sex 
with another woman. But when you hear that your new 
neighbour from around the block gets her kicks..."

   Amy gasped with pleasure, cutting off her thought. " 
Aaah, mmm, slow it down a bit, girl. "

   " ... and it she really couldn't make it much 
easier. You don't even have to say a word, and she's 
crawling up your skirt. When you hear a story like 
that... well, it was only a matter of time before I 
convinced myself to invite her over. "

   Hot waves of shame moved up and down Kaylin's body 
as she continued to please Amy's pussy. She didn't know 
what else to do at the moment.

   " *That* I can understand, " said Rebecca. " What I 
don't get is why she does it. I mean, it's one thing 
for us to allow her to do it. That's just natural 
curiosity, and a little sexual energy to burn. But I 
don't understand what she gets out of it, offering her 
tongue to every woman in the neighbourhood, and never 
wanting anything in return... not that I'd offer..."

   " Me neither, " laughed Sarah. " But I'm sure she 
gets her own pleasure out of it too. Haven't you 
noticed the way she whimpers and grunts while she goes 
? It sure sounds like she enjoys it. Hey, why don't you 
check for yourself if she's wet... I'm sure she 
wouldn't mind. "

   Rebecca took a sip of her tea and giggled. " That 
would be really bad of me, wouldn't it ?"

  A moment later, Kaylin felt Rebecca's hand exploring 
under the table. 

  Oh god, please don't, she begged, but the hand kept 
searching for the hem of Kaylin's skirt.

   " She's not even wearing panties, " Rebecca 
announced, as she pulled the long skirt up around 
Kaylin's waist.  Kaylin felt completely exposed, with 
her position on her knees, and the way Amy was holding 
the back of her head in place. 

   " God, she's really enjoying this. I can't believe 
how wet she is. "

   Rebecca's fingers danced along Kaylin's 
oversensitive flesh, bringing a shameful volley of 
unexpected pleasure.
   
   " Unnnngh, " she moaned into Amy's crotch.

   Amy gasped. " Don't distract her, Becca. I'm almost 
ready..."

   " Good, " said Sarah. " When you're done with her, 
send her this direction. And I don't mind if you play 
with her ass, hon, " she told Rebecca, " I'm sure it'll 
just make her more eager to please. "

***

   The sting of the deception stayed fresh in Kaylin's 
mind. The worst part was, Leah wasn't the only person 
to blame. Most of the deception had come from her own 
head. Leah had just planted the seed, and watched 
gleefully as it came to fruit.

   Since the tea party, it had taken every bit of 
Kaylin's strength not to return her phone messages. For 
over a week, she had isolated herself from the 
neighbours. 

   The problem was, time wouldn't solve this. No matter 
how long she avoided everyone, as long as she lived in 
this neighbourhood, everyone would tell stories about 
her.

   And they were all embarrassingly true. 

   As much as Kaylin didn't want to believe that she 
was really the person in those rumours, she could 
almost still feel the erotic surge of shame those 
under-table encounters brought with them. 

   No matter how much she tried, she couldn't resist 
listening to the messages on her machine.

   " Russ is out of town for a few days, so I'll have 
to take the kids to school... can we make it 9:30 this 
week. "

   That was the first of the messages. Most of the 
other neighbours called over the next few days, and 
despite herself, Kaylin was tempted. 

   Even Leah had an invitation, delivered in a voice 
full of mischief as usual. " I hear the tea party was 
really wild. I'm thinking about hosting one myself. A 
young niece of mine is in town for a few days next 
week, and I'd love to help her get over her shyness 
problem. What do you think ? You're not still cross 
with me, are you ? I would have let you off the hook 
sooner, but you weren't returning my calls... "

   The funny thing was, in some twisted way, Kaylin 
even missed Leah's friendship.

   Judith's company helped to fill the friendship gap 
in her life a little bit, but Kaylin could definitely 
feel something missing. The college girl was more like 
a little sister or a daughter than a friend. And she 
had her own life. Besides, she was constantly setting 
new standards in sloppiness and irresponsibility.

    Being cooped up in the house, Kaylin didn't wasn't 
even able to dodge Judith's infamous Sunday morning 
hang-over this week. Kaylin had heard her come in at 
around 4 'o clock in the morning, and she wasn't alone 
when she came in. That was another house rule that she 
had bent in recent months. 

   The guy had stayed just long enough to noisily do 
his thing. As if that wasn't enough, Judith woke up 
twice to puke her guts out. It was no wonder she didn't 
appear in the kitchen until noon.

   " Is there any juice ? " she mumbled, taking her 
seat at the breakfast table as if Kaylin had just been 
waiting around all day for the request. 

   " Look for yourself, " Kaylin snapped.

   " Sorry..." Judith stumbled up towards the fridge, 
bringing the smell of stale beer along with her. She 
had thrown on her T-shirt from the previous night, 
complete with a new set of cigarette burn holes.

   " Are you back to smoking again ?"

   " Only when I'm drinking. "

   " So every night then ?"

   " Very funny. " Judith pouted, pouring herself the 
last of the orange juice.

   " I'm sorry. Why don't you sit down, and I'll make 
you a little something for breakfast. "

   Judith didn't argue. It was easy for Kaylin to have 
sympathy for the hung-over girl. Hell, she was probably 
just remembering the guy she had traded bodily fluids 
with about now.

   In a few minutes,  Kaylin had a plate of french 
toast ready for her tenant. 

   " Thanks a lot, Kay. I don't know what I'd do 
without you. "

   Judith reached for her plate, but only succeeded in 
knocking over her glass of orange juice.

   " Oh fuck, I'm sorry. "

   " Don't worry about it, " Kaylin was already getting 
a towel.

   It wasn't until she was on her knees with it beneath 
the table that the urges hit her. When they came, they 
was stronger than ever. Next thing Kaylin knew, she was 
kneeling in a puddle of orange juice, and nuzzling her 
face into Judith's crotch. The college girl was just as 
surprised as Kaylin by the sudden move.

   All of the sick emotions returned with unexpected 
force. This was the surrender she had been denying 
herself for the last week, and it tasted even sweeter 
now coming from the used pussy of her slovenly 
roommate. 

   The odours of alcohol and piss and intercourse all 
hit Kaylin at once.

   " Oh my god, " the surprised college girl squirmed, 
but Kaylin's well-practised tongue had already found 
its mark. 

   This would change their whole relationship, she 
knew. Maybe Judith would want her to do it again, and 
even come to expect it, the same way she now expected 
Kaylin to cook for her and do her laundry. Kaylin's 
imagination pushed forward. Maybe it would become a 
morning ritual, like it had with April.

   She probably wouldn't be able to tell Judith what to 
do any more, not now that the girl had lost respect for 
her. No, soon the girl would treat Kaylin the same way 
all the other women did. 

   It didn't matter. Kaylin knew she needed this now. 
All of it. She had just been fooling herself by denying 
it this long.

   Even as the college girl began to grind her sloppy 
pussy against Kaylin's face with pleasure, Kaylin found 
herself wondering...

   ... could she still make it for that tea party at 
Leah's house ?
