For Lovers Only

  Kenya screamed, “You little slut!”

  “Shut up!”

  “You just met him.”

  “Not really. I remembered him from years ago. We grew up in the same neighborhood.”

  Kenya laughed. “Oh yeah, that definitely justifies sleeping with him on the first night. That wasn’t even a real date.”

  “You need to stop. Hope you’re not trying to make me feel bad because if you are, it’s not working. I don’t have any regrets. You know for a fact that I usually don’t get down like that, but honestly I feel like I’ve known Joel forever. I felt him and he felt me way before we even laid one finger on each other ... before our first words were exchanged. That’s how strong our vibe was and still is ... pure chemistry. You have no idea how good I feel right now. Feels like I won something.”

  “Well, I guess I’m happy for you and I hope you know what you’ve gotten yourself into. He lives right across the hall. Do you realize how messy that can be? Do you realize that we signed a one-year lease?”

  “I thought about all of that already.”

  “Before or after y’all got busy?”

  Erin quickly mumbled, “After.”

  “Huh?”

  “I said after, but so what. You don’t know how it happened. Everything was so right. It was romantic.”

  Kenya burst out laughing. “You’re trippin’ for real. Didn’t y’all have pizza and fries for dinner? C’mon, how freaking romantic could that have been?”

  “That’s exactly what I wanted for dinner. The romantic part had nothing to do with the food. It was the rain, the music, the atmosphere and him. Mmmm. The feeling was so right. Like I said, no regrets. Wait till you see him face-to-face. He’s fine as hell. And he’s so smooth.”

  Kenya burst out laughing again. “Obviously. He’s so smooth he made your panties slip right off.”

  “I don’t care what you say. I like Joel. He and I have a lot in common. We’re both teachers and we look damn good together. Joel is the right height for me. I know you saw a picture of him, but you’ll get a better appreciation once you see him in person. He’s probably just a tad under six feet tall, with an athletic build. He’s real clean-cut with short black wavy hair, a nice little mustache and goatee. His mouth is amazing and I love his voice. You should see his lips and his smile up close. I wanna tell you about his tongue, but I can’t.”

  Kenya begged, “Yes, you can.”

  “No, I can’t.”

  “You can. I insist.”

  “Can’t. All I can say is that he is the type of guy that we always talked about attracting. He knew things about me that I didn’t even know about myself. Joel is the type of guy that knows exactly what a woman needs and how to fully satisfy. Being with him was something like going to the beauty salon and just sitting in the chair without saying a word about how you want your hair done and having your beautician hook your do up better than you ever imagined, and then you walk out looking and feeling brand new. The way that he made love to me was ... sensational .”

  “You make me sick. I wanna feel like that too,” Kenya whined.

  “You will ... one day. When your Joel comes along,” Erin said smugly.

  “Sounds like he pumped your head way the hell up.”

  “Don’t be hating,” Erin said, sounding real ghetto-fabulous.

  “He must have put it on you real good because it sounds like you’re catching feelings already. I thought you weren’t looking for love.”

  “Girl please, I’m not, and don’t mention that word to me. I seriously don’t know what to do with him. Hopefully, I’ll have all summer to figure something out. I’m just kind of going with the flow.”

  “And what about him?”

  “He’s ready for a committed relationship already.” Erin sighed. “He’s so different.”

  “Uh-huh, see how different he is in the morning. I just wanna know one thing. How was the dick?”

  Erin couldn’t wait to tell her how good it was, but pretending to sound shocked, she said, “Girl, what’s wrong with you asking me something like that?”

  “You know exactly what’s wrong with me. I haven’t had none in a long time ... that’s what’s wrong with me.”

  “Let’s just say that his thing was so good that I’m still speechless.”

  “Did he go deep?”

  “Deep enough,” Erin replied quickly.

  “Shit, how deep is deep enough?”

  “He went deep enough to plant his flagpole in unchartered territory. He was so long that I could feel him in my abdomen.”

  Kenya gasped for air. “That sounds deep ... and painful.”

  “Depends on what you like. A little pain in your life once in a while can be a good thing.”

  “I wouldn’t know, but I wanna know. Okay, I want more details. He’s long, but is he thick too?”

  “Yeah, he’s very well endowed. He’s so thick that he filled me up on the inside. I could feel the exact shape of his dick and I can still feel him now.”

  Kenya slipped up and whined, “Ooh, I want some of that. You need to share.”

  With attitude Erin said, “What? I should be highly offended by you even thinking about something like that. The fact that you said it out loud is insane. I’ve never shared a man and don’t plan on it either.”

  Kenya fired back, “Hmm, the fact that you’re not highly offended tells me that you might be interested in sharing.”

  Erin blushed. “Why do you think you know me so well?”

  “Because I do. You know damn well we said that there are so few good men out here that once one of us found a good one we’d share. So, what’s up with the threesome now, huh?”

  Erin laughed. “All right. I might have said something like that in the past, but I was joking.”

  “Well, I’m not laughing now. I’m serious.”

  “I’ll admit, Joel is the type of guy that kind of makes me wanna share, but no. Absolutely not. He’s too good to share.”

  “I’m not trying to steal your good thing. I just want us to try something new and this sounds like the perfect opportunity.”

  Erin’s mind started going a mile a minute. She was thinking one thing, but her mouth was saying something else. “I can’t. Anyway, Joel seems like a one woman man, and it’s not up to me.”

  Kenya laughed. “What man wouldn’t want to be with two attractive women at the same time? Your good thing can be our good thing. Can’t I just have a sample? You’re being selfish.”

  “Maybe I am. But can you blame me? I’ve been running on empty for too long and he fills me up in so many ways. I can’t get enough.”

  “I know exactly what you’re saying,” Kenya said. “I need to experience that same feeling. I’m so stressed right now with this training and all that I feel half-dead. I need something to help me regain consciousness—make me feel alive again. I wish I could have been there with y’all tonight. The three of us would have had so much fun together. I would have turned it into the most passionate ménage à trois ever. Imagine us, you, me and him ... together. Doesn’t that sound stimulating, fun and exciting?”

  Erotic images of three bodies engrossed in different sexual positions flashed through Erin’s mind. With a hint of indecisiveness in her voice she said, “I dunno.”

  “See, you know it sounds good. I would love for the three of us to experience something like that together. Run it past Joel and see what he thinks. If you can’t make it happen, then I bet I know how to entice him.”

  Without thinking Erin said, “We’d probably have to entice him together.”

  “Oh, that’s not a problem at all. Do you think he has enough stamina to satisfy both of us?”

  “Oh yeah. He’s very athletic.”

  “Do me a big favor.”

  “What?”

  “Can you go in Joel’s bedroom right now and take a few quick pictures of him while he’s sleeping?”

  “Why? You already saw a picture of him.”

  “I
want to see more of him—a lot more. The pictures can be as mild or as provocative as you’d like.”

  “You’re crazy. I can’t take pictures of him. That would be so wrong. I’m not really down with this.”

  “All right. Then forget about it. But I don’t see why this is any different than everything else we’ve shared. We’ve shared food, drinks, clothes, the same bed, an apartment and the list goes on and on. We almost showered together.”

  “Where the hell did that come from? Don’t even go there. You kill me with your little bisexual innuendos.”

  “What did I say? That’s your freaky mind jumping to conclusions.”

  “No. I know exactly where you were going. The only reason I even considered jumping into the shower with you was because we were running out of hot water.”

  With a giggle Kenya said, “Okay, if that’s what you think.”

  “You can’t compare sharing a man to the stuff you just mentioned. Find your own man. Shoot, as far as I’m concerned God gave us the same basic body parts, so use what you got to get what you want—just not from my man.”

  Kenya laughed in Erin’s ear. “Well, I guess you told me. But you even said that Joel was the type of man that we’ve always talked about attracting. You know how hard it is trying to find a decent man. I was just thinking that all of us could be happy together ... sorry. I’m glad you’re happy, but you’re changing.”

  “Change is good.”

  “Not from my perspective.”

  “What do you mean by that?”

  “Joel has your full attention and soon you’ll forget all about me. I bet you won’t even have time for me when I get back, now that he’s in the picture. The last thing I want is for our friendship to be affected and I definitely don’t want it to end. If we all hook up like I want, then I guarantee you that things will change for the better.”

  Erin quickly replied, “Or they could change for the worse. You could be asking for trouble.”

  “Stop worrying. It’s late. I’m gonna let you go now. Just give a little more thought to what I said. And don’t forget about the pictures. I’ll be waiting. Talk to you later.”

  “I’m not promising anything.”

  “I’m not asking for promises. Just don’t rule out anything. I miss you.”

  “Miss you, too. Bye.”

  Erin pressed the End button on her phone. Her mind was really in overdrive now. She sat motionless on Joel’s sofa for a moment, trying to process some of the information she and Kenya had discussed. Erin knew that she and Joel were the two main ingredients in a pot that was just starting to heat up. All of a sudden Kenya wanted to be added to the mix. Words like, flavor, variety, hot, spicy, sweet, and delicious, ran through Erin’s mind. Her mouth watered and then she smiled.

  The crazy thing was that Kenya was very manipulative and knew how to stir the pot. Erin just feared that the pot could eventually boil over.

  She freed her mind for a minute and returned to Joel’s bedroom. If an idle mind is the devil’s playground then at that moment Erin’s mind was the devil’s amusement park. She stood in front of Joel, admiring him again. The white sheets seemed to highlight his flawless mahogany skin. Most of his body was exposed, but Erin made sure that his genitals were covered. Although she knew it was wrong, she snapped three quick pictures of Joel as he slept. She headed out to the living room to view the pictures. She smiled at Joel’s pictures as if they were her pride and joy. She considered them tastefully done, even though they were taken in poor judgment. She knew that once she pressed the Send command on her cell phone she was setting something into motion that was risky, unpredictable, and at the same time incredibly sexy and exciting.

  Erin had a moment of emotional clarity. Her heart and mind were in perfect harmony because she knew exactly what she wanted to do with Joel. She planned to make him part of a loving threesome.

  Kenya couldn’t believe her eyes when she received the pictures of Joel. She smiled and was filled with excitement. Within a minute or so she received a text message from Erin that read, Happy now???

  Kenya immediately replied to Erin’s message. Yes! Yes! Yes!

  Erin called Kenya on her cell. “What do you think?”

  “He is sooo fine. Look how he’s wearing that sheet. Joel looks like a model for an expensive cologne ad or something.”

  “I told you he was yummy. And he’s a good man with a sensitive heart.”

  “Stop, you’re killing me. You can cut all the romantic bull. I can’t wait to meet Joel. Oh my God, I’m getting turned on. Can you imagine us taking turns riding his dick?”

  “I dunno. Is that what you want?”

  “Yeah. Now give me something else that I really want.”

  “What?”

  “Details. I need hot and juicy details.”

  “All right, calm down.”

  Erin began telling Kenya all about the intimate details of her sexual experience with Joel. She was very descriptive. Kenya stretched out on her bed wearing nothing but her panties, and was able to visualize everything that happened between Erin and Joel right down to the smallest detail. With every word, she got more and more turned on. Within seconds Kenya felt the urge to touch herself. She tried to resist, but ended up playing with her breasts. She licked her fingertips and played with her nipples. In her mind it was Joel’s hands, wet fingertips and tongue on her. Kenya held her cell phone between her cheek and shoulder while her other hand gradually slid down her abdomen, inside of her panties and into her wetness.

  Erin also got caught up in the moment and became so aroused by her own recollection and vivid description that she began to touch herself. At first Erin and Kenya were unaware of what the other was doing. But pretty soon there were brief moments of silence followed by heavy breathing and gentle moans. There had always been an undeniable sexual energy between the two. What seemed so wrong at first, suddenly seemed so right. They enjoyed the hell out of their first session of girl-on-girl phone sex, but more than that, it was like a long-overdue bonding of two kindred spirits.

  Chapter 13

  The sun was shining brighter than bright. Birds sang while crickets chirped outside of Joel’s window. He woke up with a smile on his face, along with an increased sense of optimism and confidence. He was well rested and still felt the wonderful effects from making love to Erin. He felt her leg against his. Joel turned on his side, cuddled closely with her and pressed his morning wood against her warm bare skin. Erin slept like a baby. Joel felt the rise and fall of her torso and synchronized his breathing with hers. He knew that they were in store for a lovely day.

  Joel allowed himself to get used to Erin’s presence. All he could see, hear, smell, taste and feel was Erin. He was used to falling hard and fast for a woman. His senses were blinded. Joel was intoxicated by the emotions that exist between the stages of like, lust and love.

  Since Erin was still asleep one of Joel’s other interests summoned his attention. He felt around for the TV remote. He hit the power button and then turned the TV straight to ESPN to watch Sports Center. Everything seemed so perfect. He lay there enjoying the contour of Erin’s body and watching sports highlights. He thought, What could be better?

  Out of nowhere Erin’s cell phone rang and she jumped up like a wild woman. She had a startled look in her eyes. Her hair was neat on one side and was a pretty mess on the other.

  Joel touched her shoulder and said, “Good morning, Erin. Calm down, everything’s okay.”

  Erin wiped her eyes, looked around and then at Joel. She smiled. There was a momentary look of embarrassment on her face because it was obvious that she had forgotten where she was. Last night was like a dream. She hugged Joel, gave him two quick pecks on the lips and said, “I’m sorry. Good morning, Joel. I need to change that horrible ring tone. It scared the hell out of me.” Erin grabbed her cell phone and began talking. “Hello.” Her hair sent out a quick distress signal and she combed through it with her fingers. “Yes, this is she.”


  Joel muted the TV and then decided to just turn it off. Erin watched as he got out of bed naked and opened the mini-blinds. Instantly the room was flooded with rays of golden sunlight that resembled warm honey. The atmosphere was sweet, bursting with an effervescent newness. Erin flashed a warm sexy smile and Joel returned it.

  He jumped back in bed and began to massage Erin’s neck, shoulders and back as she talked on her cell phone.

  Erin said, “Ten is fine. Okay. Thank you.”

  Joel stretched, and asked, “Movers?”

  Erin yawned, and said, “Yeah. They’ll be here in a few hours. I guess I better get up and get ready.” Another distress signal went out. Erin was quickly reminded that Joel had never seen how she looked in the morning. She hid her face with her hand. “I don’t want you to see me looking like this. Mornings have a funny way of altering my appearance. My eyes probably look red and puffy. I’m sure I look terrible.”

  As Joel worked his hands up and down Erin’s back he felt her muscles relax. He kissed her between her shoulder blades to let her know that everything was okay. He said, “I don’t think you could look terrible even if you tried. You’re incredibly beautiful.”

  “Thank you,” Erin said as she gave Joel another kiss.

  “You don’t know how good you look. I’m kind of glad you don’t know because if you did you’d probably be out of control. I can’t stand conceited women. I really like your modesty. Please don’t ever change.”

  “Thank you, and I won’t.” Erin really wasn’t paying too much attention to what Joel said. She was more focused on the massage she was getting. As her eyes rolled back in her head she said, “Oh ... my ... goodness, your hands really feel nice. I could get used to this—waking up next to a man who looks like America’s next top male model and getting a massage without even having to ask.”

  Joel smiled. “I caught that male model line ... thanks. This massage is nothing. Wait till I rub you down with some hot oil.”

  Erin felt that dreamy feeling again. She closed her eyes and imagined how good Joel’s hands would feel as they massaged hot oil all over her body. “Mmmmm. I’m ready for that whenever, but I gotta get ready for the movers.”
