“I suppose we ought to go home,”he said.
“Not right now,”she remarked. She felt the sleep come over her. Jim made sure all the doors were locked, and just held her. She didn’t know how close she had come to loosing him this week, he thought to himself. He wondered what she would do without him. He wondered what he’d do without her. He hoped she’d miss he as much as he would her. He wondered how long this would last, as he also let sleep find him.
Chapter Seven
They had at long last gone home, and slept together in each others arms. She was feeling much relieved. The telling Jim about her and the baby had eased her mind greatly. It had been weighing heavily on her, plus Jim’s response was much more than she could have asked for.
“How long will you be gone?”she asked.
“I’d say most of the afternoon.
“I’ll be lonely without you,”she returned.
“Isn’t Teri coming over to see you?”
“Yes, I’d forgotten.”He had noticed a marked change in her since last night. Perhaps telling him about herself and the baby had something to do with it he thought.
“See you love, I won’t be gone that long.”he said to her as she sat at the kitchen table in nothing but her silk robe. He bent down and kissed her, and massaged one of her breasts, by reaching inside the robe. He felt a shiver go through her. She reached for him, but he avoided her hand.
“My sister is expecting me. If we start something I’ll never get there,”he remarked. She felt herself grow wet there. She pressed her two legs together, and waved him on his way. Just as he opened the front door there stood Teri. Teri had been a good friend of Julie’s ever since they moved in. She lived five doors down. Julie had met her one day on the beach.
“Hello Teri,”Jim said. Julie is in the kitchen. Go right in. See you later. Jim disappeared down the sidewalk to his car. She heard the car start up, and then saw it fade from sight down the street, as she closed the door.
“Julie,”she announced a few feet inside the house.
“I’m in the kitchen,”yelled Julie. Teri walked into the kitchen.
“Come in and sit down. Coffee?”
“Sure,”said Teri, taking a chair at the table. Julie had gotten up and was retrieving a cup for Teri, then poured coffee into the cup, and sat it down in front of her. She now also sat down.
“I like your robe. Is that silk?”
“Yes, Jim brought it back from Japan.”
“That’s right you two do a lot of traveling, don’t you?”
“Goes with the job,”replied Julie. She had never told Teri exactly what they did. She thought what to tell her now.
“Jim and me we both work for a Japanese import export company here in the US. It requires lots of travel.”
“I bet it’s fun,”said Teri as she took a sip of the coffee.
“It gets to be somewhat routine after a while. We’re hardly ever home.”
“Where was Jim going in such a hurry?’she inquired.
“He was going to see his sister. She has a new baby. He hadn’t seen it yet. I saw it earlier this week.”
“Can I use your bathroom? This is my second cup of coffee, and it goes straight through me.”
“Down the hall. First door on your left.”Teri pushed the chair back, and went down the hall adjacent to the kitchen. She found the bathroom as instructed. Julie busied herself picking up the morning breakfast dishes, then went towards her bedroom down the same hall. To her surprise Teri hadn’t closed the bathroom door. There she stood relieving herself. It surprised Julie what she was holding in her hand.
“Oh, I so sorry,”exclaimed Julie, as she continued to watch Teri, as she wiped herself dry with a bit of tissue, then put herself away, letting her light summer dress once again fall into place.
“I’m really sorry,”Julie said again, as Teri now washed her hands and stepped outside the bathroom. Julie lead the way towards her bedroom and Teri followed.
“Does this surprise you?”asked Teri.
“A bit,”replied Julie.“I’ve heard of such things, but I have never---.”
“Seen anyone in flesh as it were,”said Teri, as she and Julie now sat down on a small sofa in the bedroom.
“What’s it like?”
“Like what?
“Well you know.”
“What’s it like when some guy reaches down there and discovers more than he expected? Or What’s it like in school in gym class? Or what’s it like to try and have somewhat a normal relationship?”
“Yeah, things like that.”
“Well, gym class in school was a real hoot. The gym teacher didn’t know what to make of me at first. After a while I was simply given my own time in the girls locker room. Then some of the girls got curious one afternoon, and the word got out.”
“Then what happened?”
“You might say, more than one girl wanted to try me out. We had some nice times in that locker room and showers.”
“You did? What about guys?”
“Well some guys just got up and left. I never heard from most of them again. I’ve had one or two who wanted a relationship for a time, but it didn’t last.”
“What’d your parents think when they found out?”
“The doctor wanted to submit me to all sorts of operations, but my mother wouldn’t let them. Seems this more or less runs in the family. A third cousin has the same thing.”
“Are you, you know, upstairs?”
“Need you ask?”replied Teri, who clearly had a nice set of breasts.
“Does it bother you a lot?”inquired Julie.
“Bother me how? That I’m half of both sexes, and it’s difficult to have a relationship? Yes, it does bother me.”
“You ever thought of having the operation yourself now?”
“Yes, I have, but there can be problems. I still couldn’t have kids, and I’d be a disappointment to some guy who wanted kids. His own kids!”
“I’m sorry now I let you see me. You know I like you.”
“Yes, I know,”said Julie.“I didn’t expect this.”
“Does this make a difference?”
“Yes, it does. I’m more or less involved in two relationships now, and being involved with a third with you, would really screw up my head. I’m curious how it would be, but---.
“I understand. Was that Jake I saw you with on the beach?”
“That’s his name, Jake? You saw us on the beach?”
“You didn’t know his?name. You always sleep with strangers?”
“No! Not usually. Jim and I were having problems, and I just wanted some sex without the problems.”
“You know Jake? Who is he?”
“He’s a writer. He has done some screen plays also. He has had books on the top twenty list. He lives about ten houses the other way up the beach. He inherited his house from his parents. They got killed in a car accident about five years ago. He lives mostly alone. He is a favorite with some of the lonely women here. You know. Husbands who work too much, or women who are just divorced. He generally doesn’t have a live-in girl-friend for long. He’s up nights writing. Sometimes for days. He’s nice enough!
“You and he ever?”
“No, I just told him I liked girls, and he understood. You sure we couldn’t? I really like you.”Just then Teri pulled her light dress up, and showed herself to Juliet who then reached over and felt what clearly was displayed between Teri’s legs. It grew in her hand. She began to play with it. Teri laid back on the sofa and enjoyed the attention. Juliet felt herself grow damp. How could she even entertain such a thing she thought, as she continued to massage Teri. Then almost mindlessly, she sat on Teri’s lap, letting it ease inside herself. Her robe now slipped from her shoulders, letting Teri taste of her breasts. Julie came almost immediately. Julie had always wondered what it would be like to be with another woman, but nothing like this. Teri removed her light dress, revealing her ample breasts to Julie, who took them in her hands, and tasted of th
em. Teri felt herself tense, as did Julie. She might have been concerned about getting pregnant before but given her circumstances, she wasn’t now. She sucked on one of Teri’s breasts, then she felt the warm liquid within her, and she also came which seemed to last so very long in a series of waves running through her. From somewhere completely unseen, Jake watched. He felt a bit jealous. It had been his plan to surprise Juliet this afternoon. He had been watching the house for a couple of days, and he had over heard conversations. Now he knew why Teri had said she liked girls. He didn’t expect anything like this. He now watched in almost amazement. He too had heard of such things, but never seen the real thing. Julie now began to move up and down on that which was nicely within her. The experience was proving to be very exciting. She could come to like this very much she thought.
Teri continued to suckle on Juliet’s breasts. With one hand she reached down between them and rubbed Juliet’s bud. Julie bit her bottom lip, and came again. It wasn’t time for Teri yet, she still nicely filled Julie, who was greatly enjoying herself. Jake though still amazed at what he was watching, now thought it best to retreat. He walked back up the beach the way he had come. For most part the beach was deserted. The sand was warm on his feet. He willed himself to relax. He soon disappeared down the sand. The gulls cried over-head, as the gentle waves lapped the beach. A soft breeze could be felt, as both Teri and Julie enjoyed each other. From somewhere the phone rang. At first Julie didn’t hear it. Teri mentioned to her the phone was ringing, then she heard it. It meant Jim was on his way back home, because Jim’s sister usually called to say he was on his way home. Both women each knew the other had their own most private lives, and it was more or less part of the sisterhood. Sisters looked out for each other.
“Jim’s on his way home,”said Julie, as she stopped her movements. She took one last moment of pleasure, then eased Teri from within her.
“Now what?”asked Teri.
“Would you like to take a shower? You can use the one downstairs.”
“No! I think I’ll just leave by way of the beach. Teri gave Julie a soft kiss, and a gentle caress of her one breast, and a momentary loving look, then slipped her dress back on. She hadn’t worn any underwear. She picked up her sandals and left by the sliding glass door. Julie picked up her robe, and straightened up the sofa cushions, and inspected it for any wet spots. There weren’t any. With her robe in hand she walked into the bathroom some ten steps away. There she hung the robe on a hook, then opened the shower door, and turned on the water via a single handle. She adjusted the water to the right temperature then stepped under the water. It was hot and it felt good. Then suddenly one last wave traveled through her and her own warm liquid oozed out of her and down her thighs. She gripped a grab bar and stood there. Her mind cleared somewhat, and she thought about what had just occurred. She had just experienced a warm and sensual time with another woman, but not a woman. She wasn’t feeling anything emotional about it, but she had greatly enjoyed the sex. In the last week she’d let a complete stranger have her, and now this. She found a bar of soap and began to soap herself all over. She still felt the sexual cloud of pleasure around and in herself. She now sat on the marble seat, leaned back against the wall, and let the hot water cascade over her. With her one hand she began to soap herself there. It felt delicious as the gentle waves again found her. She let sleep also find her, and she drifted away lost in the steam cloud that filled the bathroom. She indeed was riding a delicious sensual wave.
Chapter Eight
Julie had awakened from her shower, straighten up her room, hung up the wet towels and dressed simply in a loose top and a pair of white shorts. Nothing else. She knew it usually took Jim an hour to come back from his sister’s. He usually stopped for a pizza. She sat on the patio reading a book. She actually was watching the gentle waves come in, and realizing how much they were like her own waves, traveling one after another. This week she’d let herself be lost to passion. This was an escape from the reality of both hers and Jim’s lives, which had suddenly become so dangerous. The work at first hadn’t been so dangerous, but after last year when Jim had gotten shot, and almost died, things had changed for her. She was seriously thinking of finding a way out. She had more than enough money. Monies Jim had no idea she had. She had invested wisely, and perhaps if State knew, to their dislike. She could find herself coming under some rather serious questioning, and she knew it. Her accounts were listed under fictitious names, with twenty-five digit security codes. A list of these she had in yet another fictitious account with only a safe deposit box. She was also indulging her passions. Never before had she ever been so inclined to do so. Ever since the loss of the child and the doctor saying she might not be able to have children, she had begun to look at her life differently. Gone perhaps was her following in the usual female roles. Married, children, and grand children. Oh sure Jim had suggested they could adopt, but she wasn’t sure this was something she wanted to do, at least not now at just twenty-four. Silently she hoped mother nature would repair things given enough time. Until then she was going to simply live and enjoy herself. She wasn’t sure Jim would be along for the whole trip. Sure she loved him, but she loved herself and what she wanted more. Jim was very good to her, perhaps too much so. The day with Jake had opened up other things for her, and Teri had completely blown the doors off of things. She wanted to definitely see Teri again. It had been a delicious experience she wanted to experience again, as was Jake. Somehow she always knew when he was close. She had known he was watching her with Teri. The fact had heightened her experience as had their making love on the wide open beach. She was finding she was lost to passion and pleasure. Her sensual switch had been turned on. She wanted more.
Just then she heard the door slam, and Jim yelling out her name.
“Julie! Where are you? She kept quiet. She knew he’d find her.
“There you are!”he said stepping through the open sliding glass patio door, with a pizza in one hand, and a bottle of white wine with two glasses in the other. He could have been a waiter, with the way he easily handed things. He set everything down on the table near-by, then warmly kissed her. She responded in kind, feeling him through his pants.
“Food first, then sex!”he remarked.“I need to keep my strength up, as it were.”
“Ok, you win. Pizza and wine first, then sex.”Jim poured a glass of wine for her and handed it to her, then he found a slice of pizza and gave that to her. Julie ate hungrily. She found she was more hungry than she realized.
“This is good!”she declared.“Where did you get this? It wasn’t the usual place?”
“No, I found a new place. They make true New York style pizza. How is it?”
“Just great!”Julie remarked, with a bit of toppings slipping out of her mouth, and her catching them with her hand.
“You’re messy. You got a hole in your chin?”
“I guess I do. I can’t keep it in my mouth. This is really great pizza! You didn’t happen to get two of these?”
“I sure did. I put the other one in the refrigerator for later!”
“Good boy! You know me too well,”added Julie as she continued to eat.
“You know, I think I was followed to my sister’s?
“The Chinese?”
“I think so. He wasn’t that good. He let me see him.”
“Maybe that was intentional.”
“Maybe! You need to be careful around the house also,”said Jim, looking concerned for her safety.
“I think I’ll be alright,”Julie said, revealing a Beretta 380 sitting next to her.
“You have those things all over the house, don’t you?”
“A girl can’t be too careful.”
“I hope the safety is on that thing. I wouldn’t want to get it shot off making love to you.”
“It is,”said Julie taking a sip of wine, then kissing him.
“Lips, as sweet as wine!”said Jim returning once again to eating a piece of pizza.
“You think he followed you home?”
“I don’t think so. I took the back way home. You know how many twists and turns that is.”
“You think we ought to go away for a few days?”she asked.
“Isn’t your sister’s wedding in a week?”
“Darn if it isn’t. I keep forgetting for some reason.”
“Is this her first marriage?”
“Third!”
“Third?! I didn’t know. No wonder you don’t want to go to her wedding.”
“We all went to her first wedding. Real fancy and expensive. The second she eloped much to everyone’s relief. I’d hoped she’d do the same for the third marriage. No such luck!”
“What makes this one so special?”
“He’s Jewish!”
“Jewish? That’s right your family use to be Jewish. Your family converted after entering the country?”
“Yes, they did. I’m not Jewish. June and Poppa and Mother are privately. They go to temple regularly. It’s a family secret. Temple on Saturday. Church on Sunday. I hated it all. I simply stopped going. This is part of the reason I went to a college in California. To get away from church.”
“It wasn’t to be close to your sister?”
“No, it wasn’t. I was free at last. I suddenly got two more days in my week. I went to college with the extra days. That’s where we met! Imagine if I hadn’t hated church so much, we’d never have met.”
“That is right,”said Jim taking another piece of pizza from the box. I’d forgotten. We had pizza and white wine on our first date, didn’t we?”
“You remembered! How long ago was that?”
“Three years, six months, two days, six hours, and twenty minutes!”
