If Tegan hoped her abbreviated absence would not be noted, she was sorely disappointed. As she walked into the communal women's cascade where the early ladies were already rinsing and beginning to soap up, Madison called out.

"Where have yoooou been ?"

Tegan bent her head in embarrassment as she headed for one of the dislodge exhibitioner and turned on the water, which thankfully came out steady and hot immediately, enabling her to start rinsing herself off. good to her Kuniko handed her a nursing bottle of shower gel and squirted some into her hand which she quickly used to trounce up and smear across her wet hide. After rallying from the initial plethora, she looked over and Madison with a coy smile.

"Yeah, get it girl."Madison laughed. Jennifer looked slightly disapproving but said nothing."Stan is a bonk peter, but that goes for his body as well as his personality. He can scratch an itch, that's for sure."capital of Wisconsin continued.

"I have to include, that boy can fuck."Kuniko reluctantly concurred."And I don't fuck guys."

"You're gay ?"Tracey queried, with a soupcon of surprise.

"Straight for pay. I'm not like, militantly scared of cock. I just wouldn't date a guy."Kuniko scrubbed her face with her hired hand before rinsing it under the pee. She spat out a mouthful of water and turned back to Tracey."But twenty dollars is twenty dollars and Stan is basically a dildo with a pulse.

"I guess I'm the only one here who doesn't go for girls."Tracey said reflectively."Not that there's anything haywire with that."

Tegan smiled to herself, remembering her first conversation with Bethany. Though she was just glad the nidus was off her post-show hookup with Stan.

"So, you guys do this like full sentence ?"Jennifer asked.

"side gig for me and Koko."James Madison answered for her and Kuniko.

"Are you guys together ?"Jennifer asked.

"Oh, no, but we work together during the day too."

"As what ?"

"Massage therapists."Kuniko answered.

"What kind ?"

"The qualified therapeutic remedial kind."Madison said."Not the well-chosen ending kind."

"Is it weird doing this with a co-worker ?"

"Nah."James Madison shrugged."We were chum in schoolhouse. dogshit, we do everything together don't we. Are you sure we're not a couple, Koko ? Maybe we oughta get married."

"Not until you're willing to present up cock."Kuniko retorted with a feeling of mock bitchiness.

capital of Wisconsin blew a razzing and thumbs-downed that suggestion.

"What about you Jennifer, what do you do ?"Kuniko asked.

"educatee. I'm at college. CS Major."

"Nice. You're going to program the robot that replace us all."

"That's the dream."Jennifer said, turning off the urine and taking a towel from a workbench to start drying herself off.

"What about you Tegan ?"Kuniko said, also finishing up her shower.

"I'm kind of between jobs."

"accomplishment to pay the bills, though."James Madison said shooting finger-guns at Tegan before turning off the water.

"Yeah, something like that."Tegan responded ambiguously.

"Tracey ?"

"Oh, I'm a lawyer."

There was an bunglesome silence.

"Seriously ?"Kuniko asked.

"Yeah."Tracey said, finishing her shower and walking over to beak up a towel. Tegan also finished her shower, wrapping a towel around her. All the women looked uncertainly at each former, realising the implications of the possibly greyness effectual domain acts they'd just performed. Tracey slowly seemed to realise the upshot her answer had had on the room.

"You can unlax. This isn't some stealth bust."Tracey wrapped a towel around herself."Law enforcement don't typically let operatives actually get naked and fuck in the course of an investigation. It would one hundred percent torpedo my career if anyone found out I was here. Besides, I work in civil matter, not criminal."

"Don't lawyers make bank ?"Jennifer asks."Why are you here ?"

"Because I like getting fucked by strangers in front of a crowd. The money is just a bonus."

"Wow."Jennifer said, letting that sink in."I don't even know how to respond to that."

With dramatically convenient timing, Karen walked into the room.

"Jennifer, Tegan, if you could connect me in the place when you're dressed ?"

She left, just as abruptly. Tegan and Jennifer exchanged a look for a consequence then at the others.

"Are we in trouble ?"





The elbow room that served as an office was cosy, with just enough room for the desk, an role electric chair, and a match of straight-backed chairman opposite. There was a years-old calendar on the wall that didn't make it past borderland before the person who hung it had stopped bothering to update it. Tegan squeezed through to sit in the chair farthest from the door, wearing her dress. Jennifer was wearing jeans and a wakeful hoodie over a shredded banding tee shirt. Having seen her getting dressed Tegan recognise she didn't have a bra on. While that wasn't really important right now, it was something she was mindful of.

Karenic had her tablet standing in its concealment and was reviewing it as they entered and waited for them to sit before smiling warmly. Tegan hated to pronounce a someone by their appearance alone as Karen had been zero but professional and variety so far, but on her severe, angulate face, the grinning was unsettlingly predatory.

"Thank you, ladies. I'm sure you're wondering why I've asked you here."

Both girl nodded.

"You're both first timer, even up ?"

Tegan and Jennifer exchanged a glance and both nodded again.

"Your slight show was quite well received by the guests."

Tegan let out a sigh of easing, strangely happy she wasn't about to get in trouble, though it's not as though this was an literal job that mattered to her.

"I was just doing what I thought I was supposed to."Jennifer said."I mean it wasn't exactly our idea."

"No, but you still performed it admirably."Karen said, gesturing at her iPad"and I almost immediately received a private reservation request."

"From the two cat ?"

"No, though I can see how you'd assume so. It was one of the couples, or rather the male person. I am not sure of his pardner's involvement."

"What would he need us to do ?"Tegan queried.

"I don't have all of the contingent yet, just an enquiry of availability which I will denote up to Simon the Zealot for blessing. It would be sensible to assume a girl-girl execution of some variety show, since they specifically asked for the both of you."

"I'm open to it, once we have more details."Tegan said after a second's consideration.

"Me too. But no sex."Jennifer said, tucking a unleash strand of her behind her ear."I promised my swain I'd do oral only."She said to Tegan by way of explanation.

"Your limits are noted, of course."Karen acknowledged"But I understand that refers to sexual intercourse with a man, for the design of moving forward with the reservation I presume toy are acceptable ?"

"Oh, yeah, I guess."

"Very well, then myself or Marvin Neil Simon will contact you with more entropy when we have it."





By the time their brief encounter with Karen was over the others had dressed and left. As they exited the household after collecting their bag, Jennifer lit a fag. She saw Tegan looking at her and offered her one, which she accepted, taking a docile drag. It had been a few years since she last partook of the occasional mixer smoke and didn't want to cough like an idiot in nominal head of her new acquaintance.

"So, that was a hellhole of a night."Tegan offered after a heedful exhale.

"Yeah, it was… something."

"Ever done anything like that before ?"

"Not… exactly."Jennifer took a foresighted pull."I mean I've partied. I've been around. You ?"

"I've had some… experiences. Most of them quite recently."Tegan took a thoughtful drag.

"I'm a virgin."

Tegan choked on her lungful of grass and pounded on her dresser with her fist, forcing herself to take several deep breaths. Jennifer sympathetically rubbed her back.

"You what ?"

"I don't have a boyfriend. I'm a virgin. That's why I'm oral only."

"So, you've never… ?"

"Don't get me wrong, I've been blowing dudes since I was like, fourteen, and I fucking be intimate it. Couple of girls too, y'know how college liveliness is."Jennifer took another drag and so did Tegan, her lungs still burning from her coughing fit."But I never went all the way."

"If you don't mind me asking… why ?"

"I don't psyche. And I just don't want to. I dunno. I blow a guy it's like, whatever, he gets off. But letting him inside me… I feel like he thinks he gets a piece of music of you. I guess I don't want to open that away. Maybe that's stupid."

"You know what, you do you. No judgment."

"Thanks."Jennifer bounced anxiously on the testicle of her infantry."So uh, that's a secret. Ok ? I feel like it might create trouble if former people find that out."

"Sure. Absolutely."Tegan nodded. She took another retarding force and they stood together in silence near their cars as they silently finished their cigarettes.

"So, uh…"Jennifer stuck her deal out awkwardly"It was real Nice working with you, and I look forward to seeing you next time."

"Likewise."Tegan took Jennifer's hand and shook it.

The next morning Tegan woke to a school text from Simon asking if they could encounter and after a brief rally of texts they agreed to get together at a café not far from Herbert Alexander Simon's shop. Apparently Jennifer was going to be there too, which Tegan took to think that he wanted to hash out the booking request in person rather than via text.

Tegan parked down the street from Simon's shop class and headed towards it. Paul Simon was standing outside it leaning against the doorway. He greeted her with a panoptic smile and subdivision open which she took as an invitation to a friendly hug.

"Hey Tegan, let's just snaffle a umber. You hungry ?"

"I'm fine. Where's Jennifer ?"

"She should be here soon."

They walked to a café a few workshop down from Paul Simon's and took out a chair at one of the outdoor table, inviting Tegan to sit then sat across from her.

"So how was the political party ?"

"I had a really worry time."Tegan said thoughtfully."Not exactly what I expected but certainly interesting."

"They liked you."Herbert Alexander Simon said, waggling his digit at her as if she has somehow tricked him. He turned to the waitress as she stopped by their table and dropped off a feeding bottle of body of water for them to percentage."boastfully mocha."

"Skinny vanilla latte."Tegan said. The waitress left."Karenic said there was a reservation request."

"There is."Simon the Zealot said, distractedly pouring them each a glass of water from the cool down bottle."It's a niggling unusual."

"Coming from you, that's form of ominous."

Presently Jennifer rounded the niche and Tegan gave her a polite undulation, flagging her down so she came to join, taking the former set across from Simon and next to Tegan.

"I was just telling Teeg how popular you were at last nighttime's party."

"Um, thanks."Jennifer looked around."Is it cool to blab about this out here ?"

"No one's listening."Simon assured her.

"Simon was just getting to the part about our future booking."Tegan said as the waitress returned with their coffees.

"Large caramel ice, all the mop up cream."Jennifer said, then waited for the waitress to go away again."So, what's the story ?"

"Here it is : one of the guys wants to adopt you."

Jennifer and Tegan both made faces that indicated whatever Marvin Neil Simon just said, they weren't understanding it.

"Ok, not adopt literally. I mean he wants to be like a lucre daddy, but more than that."

"Can you elaborate a slight bit on that ?"Tegan asked.

"He wants to book you both, for a long weekend. Take you somewhere nice out of town, like a recourse. Take you shopping. Pamper you. Act like you're his loving, caring daughters."

"And then fuck us ?"

"Yes. well, maybe."

"You know I'm viva only."Jennifer said.

"Yes, and that's fine."Simon assured her."He's more occupy in watching you together. Try on outfits. represent in the pool. sucker around. bid him daddy."

"Honestly this sounds pretty cruisey."Jennifer said"You kinda made it sound like there was a catch."

"I'm guessing he'd like us to make to be younger than we are."Tegan suggested.

"That would be one component of it, yeah."Simon Zelotes nodded."If you guys are spread out to it, I'd be happy to flesh out some to a greater extent of the details and come back to you. But it would be a long weekend, three maybe even four nights."

"I have no takings with that, just let me know a little in cash advance so I can project around it."

"Hell, I'm on break until the future semester so make it a week."Jennifer said."As long as he's paying."

"Alright."Simon flashed a big grin."Then I'll lock it in."He raised his coffee in a toast and they clinked their cupful together.

That evening the chemical group gathered for dinner : Tegan, Yeong, Brandon, Sam and Angus, enjoying Tegan's effort at a uncomplicated knock Charles Lamb and veg. Each of them a mates of drinking in as Tegan cleared away the saucer to deal with later and brought back refreshful beverage. It seemed to suit the climate to possess a boozing accompanying dinner so there was an almost finished bottleful of wine on the table that had been split between her, Yeong and Brandon, while Sam had knocked back a brace of beers and Angus was on his third glass of malt whisky which he drank neat in a curvaceous ice that he said improved the aroma. To Tegan it smelled like burnt rubber and tasted of band-aids. After returning to the mesa with an extra nursing bottle of wine and a beer for Sam she gently addressed the subject of her upcoming trip.

"So I have a affair coming up that I will need to be out of town for."She started ambiguously.

"Oh, what's tha'?"

"Just a personal trip. But I will be away for about four days, over a weekend."She emptied the last of the open nursing bottle of wine-coloured into her glass and took a sip."I'll make sure I pay my share of the bills for the prison term I'm away."Hoping to meet any followup dubiousness from Oengus and Sam, not wanting to get into the item of her placement, though it seemed that the financial aspect was furthest from Oengus'mind.

"wellspring yeh'll have to bring in indisputable our balls are proper drained before yeh go."Aengus drawled, swirling his glass. In the street corner of her eye she saw Brandon fidget anxiously.

"Does he always talk like that about your relationship ?"Yeong said with a distinction of concern.

"Sex is our relationship."Tegan said with a sigh."You get used to his…"

"Brutishness ?"

"…directness. Eventually."

"She likes it."Angus said, leaning over and caressing Tegan's cheek then gently squeezing her chin before releasing her and sipping his whisky."Tegan is a sensitive, attentive, intelligent fille. But in the bedroom, that's where ah make her feel like a real woman."

Tegan sipped her wine-coloured, fixing Aberdeen Angus with a threatening glare, but didn't deny it. She didn't appreciate him trying to embarrass her in front of their house guest but at the same clock time all she wanted him to pin her down and have it off her hard. It was infuriating how he continued to accept that outcome on her.

"We have company."Tegan said eventually, pointedly. Angus didn't need the monitor, but she did feel like an objection should be recorded.

"Oh I…"Yeong stammered"It's not my way but I don't mean to judge."

"It is an improper arrangement."Tegan said, turning to Yeong."I'm sorry if Angus made things uncomfortable."

"He didn't. Honestly, as much as he might have tried."

They both laughed at that and Angus harrumphed to himself as he nursed his scotch.

"I'm just happy that affair are going so well between you and Brandon."

"Hey I'm right here."Brandon objected.

"commodity point in time. Girl talking time !"Tegan took up the capable wine-coloured nursing bottle and her chicken feed in one hand and Yeong by the wrist in the other and led her into the kitchen closing over the sliding door, and led them to the table where they could set down their wine ice. She could see Sam assuring Brandon that he didn't need to be and to just relax. She assumed Aengus and Sam would try to wheedle more than item of his new sex life-time out of him and felt slightly bad for leaving him behind, but she wanted to get to know Yeong better.

"So, things are going well, I hope ?"

"Yes."Yeong said simply, fidgeting with her wine glass and taking a sip.

"I really am glad. I just wanted to clear the air between us."

"Clear the air ?"

"well not to harp on about it, but I hope you aren't uncomfortable about me and Brandon still living together. After everything."

"You've both been very honest with me. I think if I felt like there were secrets being kept from me, I would be worried. But I'm not. And I'd like us to be friends."

"That's great, Brandon is a friend and I want anyone he cares about to be a ally too."

There was a brief pause as they both drank.

"To be good, Brandon told me some more details."

"Oh, what's that ?"Tegan said, feeling her stomach turn over.

"He told me that sometimes the relations were not strictly one on one."

"Ah."Tegan acknowledged carefully, trying to measure Yeong's feeling about this."Yes. That was sometimes the case."

"You described it as polyamory but that's not exactly the password I would use."

"well, in the pastime of fully disclosure, no. To put it completely bluntly, I became the sign slut."Tegan sighed.

"Why ?"Yeong asked."I'm sorry, I don't mean to pry."

"I don't intellect telling you, especially because I want us to be friends. You might as well have it away the whole story."

Tegan relayed every item - her inexperience, her lousy relationships, her growing want to research her sexuality, and her decision to lay off her job and live in the theater as a live in love slave. She left out a few incidents that fell outside the compass of the agreement that Brandon was likely unaware of : the gloriole pickle, the fire hook night, the tramp party. But otherwise she was unresolved about the threesomes and four, the gang smasher, even the episodic seasoning of her food with a little man sauce. At prison term Yeong seemed touch function fascinated and horrified, but Tegan held cipher back hoping that any judgments or vexation would only throw a backlash on her, and not Brandon. Eventually she concluded the yearn story.

"…and here we are."

Yeong was still while she let it sink in.

"Brandon was involved in… all that ?"

"A little bit. I think he let the early guy rope push him into it. Just went with the flow. Mostly he preferred to go at his own pace. He wasn't fond of sharing - that's why he values what he has with you much much more than anything we had together."

"It feels like you're working hard to fight back him."

"Maybe, but it's all true."Tegan rested her hired hand on Yeong's."I hope this doesn't make you think less of him."

"Actually, it makes me finger better. It helps me empathize that what you had was not… personal. Even though it was intimate."She smiled, finishing her glass of wine.

"I also hope we can still be friend. I'm for sure your scene of me is probably pretty low."

"I will hold, you've done things I could not do. But in a way, I am covetous of how freeing it must be to be able to act so shamelessly."She clapped her mitt over her back talk, looking excusatory."I'm sorry, that must have sounded so awful."

"I think I understand what you meant. No offence taken."

A loud laugh went up in the other room.

"I wonder what that was about ?"Yeong pondered aloud.

"Boy talk probably. We can leave them to it awhile longer."



-- -- -



In the other room Brandon watched Yeong and Tegan leaved and buried his heading in his hands.

"What's up lad ?"Angus queried.

"Two only two adult female I've been with just went off to have a private talk."

"Ah, donnae worry about it. Have another drink."

"Look all they're going to do is ingest a deeply personal conversation about their one mutual interest - you - and compare notes."Sam said cheerfully.

"Jesus Christ."Brandon moaned.

"On the top side, yeh can severalize us all about yeh new girl. Yeh've been pretty active the last pair o'weeks."

"That's my business. I'm not going to contribution any of that."

"Ah go on. I'll tell yeh some o'my war stories."

"I don't want to know !"

"Yehs no fun."Aengus said, swirling his Glencairn glass.

"It's not about ‘ fun ’, it's about trust."

"Yeh quite sweet on this daughter ain't yeh ?"

"She's sweet, and risible, and interesting."

"Ah, young love."

"Don't let old man Angus cheapen your relationship."Sam cut across Angus'mocking note."We know she's authoritative. He's just being a dickhole."

"What ? Young love is garish. Yeh'll always remember yeh first but it won't have staying power. Yeh'll grow up and actuate on and become unlike people. Just relish what yeh have now."

"Don't talk about Yeong like that."Brandon said sharply.

"Ah'm nae talking about Yeong, ah'm talking about young people. Yeh're idiots. But so are middle aged people and old people."Angus drained his malt whiskey and poured another."We're all idiots."

"So who are you to be lecturing me ?"

"Ah'm no one. Just a in-between aged perv who's fishin'fer details about yeh hot new girl."

"Ok, funfair enough."Brandon laughed.

"So yeh'll share the details ?"

"No."

They all laughed at that and Angus turn to Sam.

"What about yeh ? What's yeh best lay ?"

"Oh, Tegan. Without a doubt."Sam said, finishing his beer and shaking the dregs at the bottom of the bottle.

"Aye ?"

"She's cute, adventurous, up for anything. Not the live, but she gets stop just for the tinker's damn she's let me do to her."

"Go on."Aengus encouraged.

"Ah Angus, you've been there for most of it."Sam reached across the table and poured some of black Angus'scotch into an empty glass. Angus looked irritated but didn't object.

"C'mon, there's got to be at least one time yeh got nasty with her in a man-to-man scenario."

"Well… one time I pissed in her mouth."Sam sipped the malt whisky then grimaced at the flavour and threw it back in one gulp.

"Ew."Brandon said, making a cheek."delay, Did she… ?"

"deglutition ? Nope. Don't worry, it was in the bath."

"Still, ew."

"How'd yeh convince her to let yeh do that ?"

"fountainhead to be bonnie it was the end of a pretty long Night, I think I'd wrung the resistance out of her. But I just told her directly I was gon na do it. She could say no, but she didn't."

"fountainhead, it's nae my affair, but I'm impressed by the both o'yeh."Aberdeen Angus poured Sam another measure of scotch into Sam's cup.

"Ok, fairly's bazaar. What's the nappy shit you did with Tegan ?"

"Ah, well…"Angus demurred."…Ah might've taken her tae a glory hole."

"Those are a material thing ?"Brandon asked.

"If yeh know where tae look."Angus nodded."And ah do. Donnae concern, everyone is properly vetted and light. I made sure enough o'it."

"Everyone ? Like multiple ?"

"Fifteen blighter, she took on. Like a cum guzzling champ."

Brandon and Sam slumped in their chairs.

"That was the night you took her shopping for dominatrix gear."Sam concluded.

"Aye."

"Wow. She agreed ?"

"Took a little arm twisting, but she was convinced."

"Well that makes my poker party seem tame by comparison."

"Poker party ?"Brandon queried.

"Oh yeah, you weren't place that night. I had some mates over. Tegan lost at poker. She lost hard."Sam chuckled."On purpose."

"On one hired man it seems like we're exploiting Tegan. On the other hand her… willingness… makes it seem like she's doing exactly what she wants."

"Pure strumpet, that missy. Through and through."Angus raised his trash in a toast. Sam tapped it with his plastic cup, Brandon joined the pledge with his wine glass.

"To Tegan."



-- -- -

Yeong and Tegan exited the kitchen just as they were toasting and put a hand to her chest of drawers as if flattered.

"That was a squeamish toast, I hope."She said sweetly.

"Aye lass, just reflecting on how a lot we appreciate having yeh in our lives."

"Did you have a good talk ?"Brandon asked.

"Sure."Tegan smiled, giving Brandon a favorable bam on the shoulder."Bathroom."She disappeared down the hall and Yeong sat next to Brandon, giving him a reassuring kiss on the cheek.

"Don't worry, we were just getting to roll in the hay each other better."She said."What about you boys ? commodity talk ?"

"Just reliving some memories."Sam said, sipping his scotch."Jesus Oengus what is this squat ?"

"That's Ardbeg Corryvreckan, yeh heathen."

"Corrywhatan ?"

"Ah, yeh've nae taste."

"I need another beer."

"I need to pee."Brandon announced.

"See you in your way ?"Yeong hinted.

"See you there."He kissed her nerve and left, hoping Tegan was done.

"Cheers to that !"black Angus toasted the air as Yeong trailed after Brandon, headed towards his room and Sam headed into the kitchen to get himself a beer, coming back and popping the cap off as he recapture his seat, looking around.

"Where's Tegan ?"



As Brandon shook off he washed his hired man and exited the privy, slightly tipsy as he headed back to his room. He slipped inside and closed the doorway behind him, sliding the dash. When he turned towards the bed he froze in his tracks.

Sitting on the bed, wearing only their underwear, were Yeong and Tegan .
