The two men had for some reason, or in spite of some reason, seemed to be becoming fast friends. Darrell owed the guy, but Nathan didn’t owe him. So...why, I wondered? I was going to be asking, obliquely, but asking for sure.“Can I borrow your date for few,” said Victoria coming up to us. We’d been loading our plates. I nodded my okay. I waddled off to where Nathan had the rest of the gathering locked in serious conversation; well, it seemed serious based on the facial expressions in. I didn't need that job. It was supposed to be a bit of harmless fun. What the hell was I thinking? Now everyone will know. I won't be able to face anyone," she wailed. The headache had returned."Well, you can blame me or anyone else you like, but it was your decision in the end, and what's done is done. Now you have to figure out what to do about it." There was no sympathy in her sister's voice, and Jeanette looked at her strangely. She was beginning to get angry."Who was it encouraged me to. Just how long did he expect me to stand here like this? I couldn’t do it all night. I wanted to pull my feet together just to get a little more comfortable, but I knew better. I could feel a little slack in the rope that he used to bind my wrists and attach to the pipe. I shifted slightly and figured out why he ran that rope the way he did between my legs. With that tiny movement, the rope rubbed against my pussy lips and clit. I moved a little more to feel that sensation again. I was amazed. They were awfully young.Damn, now I knew what Mom felt like when Tami and I talked about being in love.Still, I could do worse for a brother-in-law. Peter was good people. And that'd make Kelly and Mikee sisters-in-law, or sisters-in-law once removed. I wasn't sure. And Alana. I'd be related to Alana. Since she was a goddess, I wondered what that made me. Out of luck, probably. Alana had decided not to go back to school, at least not this year, and was in New Zealand doing a lingerie photo.
