he couldn’t make you happy. I’m sorry, baby. I thought about it a hundred times and thought better of it not to tell you. I guess I was hoping I was wrong.”
I knew my mother loved me with everything she had. She would never intentionally keep something from me to hurt me. I probably wouldn’t have heeded her warning anyway.
“He’s been unfaithful,” I said, then bluntly added, “and now so have I.”
“Not surprised about him, but, baby, you too?”
“It’s recent. He’s been unfaithful for over a year, I think.”
“Well, baby, I know I’m not supposed to say this, but honestly, what’s good for the goose. When is this happening?”
“Soon. I haven’t asked him for one yet, is that weird?”
“You will when you’re ready. What’s the hurry? The damage is done and paperwork is just that, paperwork. Don’t you let him have that house. I know how much you love it! Why don’t we get together this week? Or better yet, pack a bag and come and stay with me. We can have one of our weekends.”
“I’ll be over Friday. You have a date.”
“I love you, baby. Just remember who you are and take her with you. The worst thing you can do is lose a piece of yourself to this because of him.”
“I think I’m in the middle of doing just that, Mom. Kiss Daddy for me. I’ll see you soon.”
Who knew? I thought my mother loved Alex. I would go home this weekend and be my mother’s daughter. It may be just what I needed.
But tonight, I would be Rhys’s student, and I couldn’t wait.
I took a ridiculous amount of time getting ready. I wore a long red skirt and white blouse, finishing the look with my new black and white checkered heels with a red sole, courtesy of Alex’s new American Express. I thought it was a nice touch. Tara greeted me and told me Rhys was running late and would be along shortly. She rounded the bar, which was slow, and kept me company, pouring us an insane amount of drinks in a short amount of time. We laughed until we cried and the more drinks that went down, the closer Tara got. Instead of beating around the bush, I asked her directly.
“Are you trying to seduce me, Tara?”
She batted her false lashes, which made her clear blue eyes pop, and gave me a sweet, “Maybe.”
“You do know I’m screwing your boss?” I hiccupped, pushing the drink she set in front of me away.
“He shares with me once in a while,” she said, raising her brows and leaning in closer.
“I’ve never been with a woman,” I said, my eyes sweeping over the curve of her breasts. “I think you are beautiful.”
“Well, it wouldn’t hurt to play around a little,” she said, unbuttoning the first three buttons of my blouse. I looked around to see we had an audience of one. Rhys was in the corner next to the entrance watching us intently. I gave him a smile as Tara slipped a hand underneath my shirt, sweeping a hand over my breast. I saw Rhys eyes light up and moaned as Tara’s soft lips took my nipple into her mouth. I was wet instantly, watching Rhys get hot over our exchange. I watched him carefully, waiting on him to object when Tara kissed my chest and glided her lips and tongue up my neck. Her hand reached between my legs and I parted my lips as she stroked my clit with expert skill. I couldn’t tear my eyes away from Rhys and could feel his tension and growing need as Tara stroked me, sucking my tits and my neck, drawing my eyes closed when she slid her fingers inside of me. GOD THIS WAS HOT.
I felt lips brush mine and opened them, grinning at Rhys, who was now standing between Tara and I.
“That’s enough, Tara,” he said, lifting me off my barstool, encouraging me to wrap my legs around him. Tara protested as I smiled at Rhys, who carried me away as I gave her a thumbs up.
“Thanks for my first outstanding lesbian experience.”
Rhys burst out laughing as he led me down a different hall than the one that led to his office. I saw a few numbered doors and we entered door
