"James is right now giving Brittany..." Four hours of bliss!" Kitty shouted. Bethany smiled at the interruption. Tina ignored the interplay and began ...oving cards on the table. The game they were playing was an elaborate card game where cards on the table were purchased with cards held in the player's hand. It was a lot of fun, but did require a good deal of attention. Tina finished her turn and turned to look at Janice and me."Sorry," she said. "I still have trouble reading the cards. I tried to diffuse the situation a little, "All I'm saying is, you could enjoy the situation for what it is, and get as much out of it as you can." That was weak too."I feel like this is a sort of ****." You are free to go at any time," I countered."And then you show off your pictures," she parried."Well, true, but it's not like I don't have legitimate grievances as well." "Agreed, but why not ask for money, or clothes or...anything else. Why this?" She looked down, indicating her fingers,. “I’d be interested in hearing why,” he said.“Why?” I asked.He looked away.“It’s not a professional interest,” he said. “What we’re talking about now is between you and me.”“Did you ask Valerie about that?” I asked.He blinked, but didn’t look away.“Yeah. She wouldn’t answer me.”“She has a thing for you,” I said. It just came out.“She does, huh.” He smiled, but it looked like a dismissive smile.“She’s afraid if our stories don’t match you’ll think she lied to you.”“If your stories match too. C.?" she reached up to take a tear I hadn't been aware of."I'm sorry, I was just thinking... about us." I looked at May. Melinda looked between us, something on her mind. "May... May I love you, but not like this." I swept my hand down over my body. "Not sexually May, but you know..." Yeah..." May said."I'm... I'm in the way of something aren't I?" Melinda said, looking out of place."No. Girl you're just great right here with us" I said, turning to kiss her. I may not be a lezzie, but I knew.
